Were Ready to Go.

A report from ST. Johns yesterday
said that the entire town was in dan
ger of being burned to the ground
and that help from Crown Point would
be much appreciated.
The Are alarm was sounded here and
the old hand engine gotten in readiness
to start to the seat of the fire, but 1T
was learned that water could not be
procured in any quantity in ST. Johns,
consequently the trip to that town was
not made with the fire apparatus from
here. Later reports say that the en-
tire lumber yard of the Gerlach Bros.
was destroyed, quite a little damage
done to their store and surrounding
buildings.
The fire it is thought started from
sparks from an engine. The loss is
considerable. but is partly covered by
insurance.

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless. the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth

The football enthusiasts in Crown
Point received with regret and disap-
pointment the news of the defeat of the
Crown Point high school team at the
hands of the Hammond aggregation on
last Saturday. Although Crown Point
high school hasn't been showing a
very classy article of football this
season, suffering several defeats, it was
thought that they had a fighting chance
to win and many expected a third
game would be necessary to settle
the championship. However, the Crown
Point team accepts their defeat in a
sportsmanlike manner and say that the
best team won, fair and square, and
give the honor to the Hammond boys,
being entirely satisfied with the treat
Hammond crowd.
Quite a number of Crown Point peo-
pie attended the funeral of Miss Mary
Weingart at st. Johns this morning.
Geisen & Don, the local undertaking
firm, had charge of the funeral.
About fifty of the lovers of foot
ball in Crown Point attended the foot
ball game at Lowell yesterday after
noon in spite of the cold raw weather
and all report a good game consider

team has had.

NEWS OF THE COUNTY SEAT

battle, and Crown Pointers who wit
messed the game are loud in their
praises of the treatment received in the
hands of the Lowell crowd.
The old-time partisan feeling with
the enmity and ill-feeling that is
sometimes aroused seems to be a thing
of the past, and it is getting so that
people can enjoy a game solely on it's
merits, and their desire seems to be
that the best team shall win. whether
it be their own or not. Such feeling
goes a long way toward clean sport
and athletics and ought to eliminate
a lot of the old-time rancor and Ill
feeling that was aroused between the
different towns on account of the de-
feat of their faovrites.
