HAMMOND
TOWARD TOP
In Number of School Chill
dren City Close to Fort
Wayne.
5000 RECORDED HERE
Will Be Some Years, However, Before
City Represented in State
School Board.

Although pressing close to the heels
of Fort Wayne and Terre Haute in the
matter of school enumeration. it may
be a number of years before Hammond
will be able to have a representative
on the state board of education. Ac-
cording to the present ruling. three
members of the board are appointed
from the three cities having the larg-
est number of school children, and al
though Hammond ranks well up, unless
an amalgamation of the school depart
ments of the towns surrounding Ham
mond is brought about a conservative
estimate fixes the time at about ten
years before the city will have repre-
sentation.
AT the office of State Superintendent
of ePublic Instruction Fassett A. Cot
ton, there has been a great deal of in
terest in the school enumeration of
four Indiana cities, Fort Wayne, South
Bend. Terre Haute and Hammond. The
three representatives at present are
from Indianapolis, Evansville and Fort
Wayne. The wonderful growth of Ham
mond is the cause of placing the name
of that city with the other three. AS
yet Hammond is behind the others, ac-

Hammond, and is likely to remain so.
5000 Enumerated.
The enumeration OF this city as COM
piled last week, shows the number of
school children to be a trihe over 5000
and based on these figures. the popula-
tion of the city is figured at about 49,
900. Fort Wayne in the point of school
children figures 1000 or more higher
than Hammond, and the increase of
the number of children in the Ham
mond schools from last year figure ITS,
it can be seen that it will at least
take ten years before the Fort Wayne
figures is reached. In the meantime
Fort Wayne is growing also. although
not in such proportion as is Hammond.
But for the placing of the territory
known as Oklahoma in the Whiting
district where as it was formerly in
the Hammond district the total would
have been much larger.

his apologies to Lillian
At any other moment he might have
pondercd over her manner of accept
ing them-the easy Indifference with
which she let him so. But vastly
keener issues We're claiming his atten
ton, issues whose results We're wide
and black.
He left the theater and, refusing the
overtures of cabmen, set himself to
walk TO Chllcote's house. His face
was hard and emotionless as he hur
ried forward, but the chaos in his mind
found expression in the unevenness of
his pace. TO strong man the con-
fronting Of difficulties is never alarm
Ing and Is often fraught with inspira-
ton, but this applies essentially TO the
difficulties evolved through the weak
ness, the folly or the force of another;
when they arise from within the mat

presence of his own soul, and in that
presence alone, that man may truly
measure himself.
AS Loder walked onward, treading
the whole familiar length of traffic

| time that he was standing before that
| solemn tribunal-that the hour had
come when he must answer to himself
| for himself. The longer and deeper an
| oblivion the more painful the awaken

beaten about his ears, deadening all
| other sounds; now abruptly that song
| had ceased, not considerably, not lin
geringly, but with suddenness that
made the succeeding silence very ter
rible.
He walked onward keeping his d.
rection unseeingly. lie was passing
through the fire as surely as though
actual flames rose about his feet and
whatever the result, whatever the fiber
of the man who emerged from the Or
deal, the John Loder who had hewn
his way through the past weeks would
exist no more. The triumphant egotist,
the strong man who by his own
strength had kept his eyes upon one
4, point. refusing to see In other direc-
lions, had ceased to be.
Keen though it was, his realization
of this crisis in his life had come with
characteristic slowness. When Lillian
Astrupp had given her dictum, when
the music of the orchestra had ceased
and the curtain risen on the second act
of the play, nothing but a sense Of
stupefactlon had filled his mind. In
that moment the great song was ST.
fenced, not by any portentous episode,
not by any incident that could have
lent dignity to its end. but, with the
full measure of life's irony, by trivial

"Right! Well, then. rs I say. these

Loder laughed. The newly quickencd
interest was enhanced by treading on
dangerous ground.
"Well, they change for lark, of
course, but there's one fact they both
overlooked. They're men, you know
and they forget these little things"
He laughed delightedly. "Thcy over

Lynching Is

REMOVE, Pa, Oct. 3O.-Great ex-
citement prevails here today as the
result of the brutal treatment and
murder of nine-year-old Mary Dom
nelly, whose body was found this
morning on the bank of the west
branch of the Susquehanna river.
Posses are searching for the MUIR
derer. and the officers have little
hope Of preventing a lynching if he
is captured. No clue to his identity
so far has been found.
The child's parents became fright
ened at her absence last night.
Bells were rung and whistles blown.
The whole town was aroused.
Searching parties were formed, and
were at work until the little body
was discovered.
The little girl undoubtedly was
cboked TO dea5h. Physicians say it
is one of the most brutal cases ever
known in this part of the State.

Mr. Sims is one of the Southerners

followed by AIr. Cortelyou.
He also expresses himself as disap-
proving Of the banks being able 10 get
this money and then lending it out at
such an enormous interest rate as is
now the rule in New York Another
thing thta the Congressman suggests
in this connection is the following ques-

What will happen when all that
money is Withdrawn into the Treasury?

And. II the loans or deposits are in
