INDIANA X. p. ARE LEAVING.

Boston, Mass, Aug. 6-The first COM
pany to leave the tented city of Pyth-
ians on Franklin Field will be the
Twelfth Indiana Company of FIT. Wayne
Tomorrow morning the FIT. Wayne
knights plan to break camp and say
their farewells to Boston. They will
not return home Immediately. however,
but will go to New York city and stop
there a while. The arguments of their
comrades from Indiana have proved of
no avail against the lure of the me-
tropolis. I'VE have made up our minds
to do New York they declare. No
body cared to leave, however, until after
the grand military ball which is being
held tonight in Mechanics hail. which
is to Boston what Madison Square gar
den is to New York or the Auditorium
to Chicago. Beautifully decorated on
all sides and thronged with modern
knights in gold lace and blue and hand
somely costumed women the great hall
presents a kaleidoscope scene of beau
ty and brilliance not often witnessed
here or anywhere. BY actual count at 8
o'clock this evening there were but ten
knights in the Indiana section at Camp
Lyon and a general view of the ball
room gave the impression that all the
rest were there from the Indiana COM
pany under Capt William Hester down
to the knights from the little town of
Edinburg under Capt d. F. Farr The
Indianians in today's competition drills
made a fine showing. Their maneuvers,
especially on the march. were splendid
and the men steady and attentive.

The ROunder Saws

The ObstructiOnist tactics of certain
councilmen and their inborn tendency
10 oppose everything that comes up in
the way of progressive legislation was
illustrated recently when certain coun-
c1lmen voted to compel the street rail-
way company to go to the useless ex-
pense of doubletracking the State
street railroad crossing because the
company would not put iron poles on
about ten blocks of street instead of
four as it had agreed to do.
This incident recalls the old times
when all Hammond councils were com
posed principally OF Germans, some of
whom could not speak English very
well and they frequently made some
peculiar motions.
Peter Mosier was one of the first
members of the city council in this city
He was known all over the city as the
most unreasoning obstructionist imag-
Unable There was never motion
which was generally approved which
did not meet with Mosier's disapproval
and when the vote was being taken
and all of the councilmen would vote
yea. the clerk would come to Mosiers s
name and he would shout out nay"
One day Mosier introduced an ordi-
nance which he was very anxious to
have passed in the interests of certain
of his constituents. The ordinance
seemed to be generally approved and
as the vote was taken all of the coun-
cilmen voted yea" When the clerk
came to Mosiers name, however, he
shouted may" without looking up from
some papers he was looking over.
1t was the force of habit and there
was a hearty laugh all over the coun-
ell chamber as Mosier changed HIS vote
in fafvor of his own ordinance. This
incident recalls the most famous mo-
ton that was ever made in the Ham
mond council. 1t was made by Peter
Mosier, too.
Mr.. Mayor" said the German alder
man. Il make a moot dat We calcimine

Where can you get the best chicken
dinner in the county? That is the
mooted question which is to be decided
by several business and professional
men in Hammond
DIR. Shanklin thinks that the best din

at, ]. T. Hutton. Will Hutton, Eric
Lund, H. f. Meikle and Joseph Ibach
partook of a feast of yellow legs at
Lowell.
There were few garnishings and the
dinner was an old fashioned QUE but it
was the consensus of opinion that the
meal was about as satisfactory as could
possibly have been prepared.
IT was only a few days ago that
Eric Lund took the same party to St
Hubarts Grill in Chicago and gave
them a chicken dinner there. Howat
Hutton, Meikle and Ibach refuse to tell
where the best chicken dinner may be
had When each member of the party
has provided a chicken dinner at his
favorite place. a vote will be taken
on the feasts as a whole, and it win
be decided whose dinner is the best
The party went to Lowell in their
machines last night and the reports
this morning are very interesting DR.

tunity to make few votes for himself
for the office of coroner and came near
starting a riot with the democrats in

himself a national democratic elector

The members of the party are anx-
iously awaiting the announcement of
the next chicken dinner and hereafter
politics will be eliminated from the

WANT To GET
RID OF POLES
Hammond Council May Con-
slider Vote on Double
Crossing Question.
NO MEETING HELD TONIGHT
State Street Property Owners Want
to Get Rid of Unsightly
Guy Poles.

The prospects now are that the cOun-
ch VIII reconsider its vote ON the
double crossing question ON State
street. and that the city may yet be rid
of unnecessary guypoles.
Several members of the council. East
state street and South Holman street
property owners and the street car Off
ciais met this afternoon on south Hoh-
man street TO discuss the prospects of
stretching the agreement to such a de-
gree that more of the poles on south
Holman street should be replaced with
Joint poles.
No Meeting Tonight.
Unless some understanding is reach
ed. the street car company will go
ahead and double cross the railroads on
State street.
A meeting was scheduled for last
evening for the property owners. but 1t
did not materialize owing to the fact
that some of the councilmen could not
attend it. 1t was then thought best to
hold it this evening, but owing to the
conference this noon very likely no
meeting will be held this evening.
Upper Hand For city.
The consensus of opinion among the
East State street property owners is to
get rid of a double crossing and in
exchange get rid of as many unneces-
sary poles as possible and the city be
given the privilege to dictate after a
certain number of years when the com
pany should double track on State
street
The East State street property own
ers are chafing under the conditions of
the impossible streets. Business has
fallen off nearly so per cent and they
are unanimous that some settlement
should be reached Immediately
Owing to the poor condition in which
the track one of the street cars was de-
rallied in front of Pascaly's store and
the street blocked for some time Fort
unately nobobdy was injured and as 1t
happened about eight o'clock the other
street traffic was not interfered with.
