EAGLES GETTING READY
FOR BIG CONVENTION
Local Fraternal Order Ar

Big Host.
COMMITTEE TO r'EPORT FRIDAY
Prosecuting Attorney Boone Candi-

dent of Eagles.
COMMITTEE TO r'EPORT FRIDAY

The Eagles of Lake county and of
Hammond in particular, are looking
forward to the state convention which
is to be held I'm this city the 18th and
14th inst.
1t is to be the biggest event that has
even happened in the history of the
Eagles in Northern Indiana and If the
pIans of the members of the local order
is carried, it will be remembered as one
OF the greatest cOnclave that has ever
been carried out under the auspices of
a local fraternaI order.
The convention will be held In two
sessions and on the evening of the first
day the delegates are to be entertained
at a banquet which will be given in
their honor by the members of the local
order.
The arrangements have not yet been
completed, but David Hirsch, the chair
man of this committee. will be ready to
make a full and complete report to-
morrow. 1t is known, however, that
there will be two vaudeville entertain
ments at which the best talent obtain
able will appear.
Barnie Young's band and orchestra
have been hired for two days and will
provide good music for every occasion.
In all it is expected that there will be
200 delegates and members from out of
town. Some Of the national officers of
the order who are residents of the
state will be here and there will be
many prominent men who are mem
bers of the order who will be present.
The election of officers will be of
great interest to the people of Ham
mond and Lake county for the reason
that Lake county has a candidate for
the Office of state president in the per-
son of Prosecuting Attorney D. E.
Boone.
Some of the stores Of the city will be
decorated for the occasion and Charley
FIagg has decided to have a. big stream
er strung up an the corner of Holman
and State streets which will bear the
inscription. welcome Eagles to Lake
County" Another banner will be hung
up in front of the Eagles lodge room
which will read Eagles Headquarters y
All of the members of the various
committees have been working hard to
make the affair a success and with the
arrangements about completed the pros
poets for great convention are splen-
did.

The dozen or more attorneys at
Crown Point are working night and
day in an effort to defeat the remon-
STRANGE and are vieing with each other
In attempting to discover some plan
which will prove to be the salvation of
their clients
In the meantime in Gary, the real
estate board of the Commercial club
representing the most substantial bust
men in the community have gone on
record as being opposed to the radical
action of the demonstrators.
KOpeIke I'm Fight.
At Crown Point Johannes Kopelke is
leading the fight and is outlining the
general plan Of campaign. The saloon
keepers attorneys entered a formal
protest against the commissioners TAX

monstrators filed their answer and the
arguments were about completed.
While the demonstrators ara of the
opinion that the whole question win
be settled in a~few days. The attorneys
for the saloonkeepers insist that they
will have every signer of the renon-
STRANGE heard by the board and that
the commissioners must remain IN ses-
sion for at least two weeks longer.
The whole fight seems now to have
become one of endurance and both sides
are settling down to their work as

THAT
STRIKE IS BROKEN
Secretary of Master Plumb
er's Association Gives
Out News
PLUMBERS SAY IT ISN'T TRUE
Long-Lived Dispute May Be Ended
By Return of Some Men to
Their Work.
Their Work

According to A. ]. Campbell, secre-
tary of the Master Plumbers associa-
tion, the strike which has been carried
on for the past few weeks is broken
and today two men returned to the
shop of A. ]. Campbell, one went to
work for w. E. Russell and one for
H. Tallman.
All of the difference between the
plumbers and their employers, he says
have been settled with one exception,
the wage scale. The plumbers who
are out still, demand $500 a day
while the boss plumbers will not pay
more than $3.50.
The plumbers have agreed that the
provision requiring the boss plumbers
to employ no apprentices who were not
sons of plumbers is preposterous and
they have waived this one of the rules
The Hammond plumbers are now in a.
position to carry on their work as well
as thought the strike was entirely
settled, according to A. J. Campbell, and
the men who are still out are not Ham
mond men. but simply fioaters who are
not needed in these quiet times anyway.
The plumbers strike has been car
ried on in an orderly manner which is
much to the credit of the parties to the
disagreement but 1t has also been Bit
terly contested and a prolonged battle.
It is expected that the other plumbers
will agree to the boss plumbers terms,
and if they do not, there is sure to be
a factional fight in the union which
will be as bad as the strike itself.
1t was impossible, though efforts
were made to see any of the officials
of the local plumbers union this af-
ternoon. Attempts were made to get
them on the wire at East Chicago and
Hammond, but were unsuccessful Will
liam Kleighege of the Master Plumbers
| association confirmed Mr. Campbell's
story.

FOREIGNERS CLAMOR
FOR FIRST PAPERS
Charles i Surprises Office
Swar1ning With Appli-
cants For Few Weeks.
WHAT S The REASON THEREOF !?
Judge Anderson's Recent Refusal Dis
qualifying Budding Citizens May
Be Partly Accountable.
WHAT'S S THE REASON THEREOF !?

Judge Anderson's recent refusal to
grant second papers when the first
papers were not made out in the proper
Office of duly authorized clerk. seem
ingly has had wholesome effect upon
the foreigners Of Lake county.
Charles L. Surprises office in the
Federal building which. outside of the
Circuit court in Crown Point, is now
the only proper place in Lake county
to secure first papers has taken on
new life.
Mr.. Surprise is unable to account for
it, but says that within the past few
weeks there has been a continuous
stream Of foreigners who apply for
the papers. In order to better accom-
mcdate the foreigners and their wit
nesses he will in addition to making
out papers in the day time keep his
office open every Friday evening.
The new forms are considerably
longer than the old ones and in order
that matters may be expedited when
there are many applications at one
time, the office has ben equipped with
an elegant set of rubber stamps fur
nished by Mr.. Surprise himself.
New Furniture for Office.
The Office has further been furnished
by the government with three hun
d1ed dollar desk and grill work, this
furniture having been taken from the
Office of the deputy United States rev.
enue collector,
The revenue collectors office was one
of the most sumptiously furnished in
the Federal building, but Frank Ham
mond, tho revenue collector finding. 1t
more convenient to do the. work in his
office of the Hammond Loan & Trust
company, the Office in the Federal
building was dismantled and some of
the furniture placed in the post office
and other pieces sent to Evansville
and Ft. Wayne. Charles Surprises s
office received the most valuable piece
in the desk and grill work
With added furniture in the Office
and the set of rubber stamps the work
in making out the first papers is re-
duced to only half of the original
amount, thus enabling the candidates
to be quicker accommodated.
Mr.. Surprise has written to Noble G.
Butler. his superior at indianapolis,
asking for permission to place posters,
notifying the public of the existence of
the office.
