WHITING LID IS
NOW ON TIGHT
Methodist Minister Insists
That Mayor Smith
Closes Lid.
GERRYMANDER QUESTION UP
Anti Saloon League Insists That Sa.
looms Will Have to Go Out of
Business There.

1t has been rumored that the reason
Tor fitting the tight lid on Whiting
was that some of the city authorities
have been threatened with impeach-
ment If they did not at once take ac-
ton against the gamblers and slot ma
chine owners in that city.
An effort to confirm this rumor was
unsuccessful but it did develop that
the better element of the citizens of
whiting went to Mayor Smith and
make the request that he stop gamb-
glin of all kinds.
Rev. NJ. c. Wright of the Methodist
church was one of the men who went
to Mayor Smith and stated the sit
uation pretty plainly to him Rev.
Wright. however, denies that there was
any threat of impeachment made and
he denies that any threats were made
at all.
He says the proposition was simply
put up to the mayor to close the gamb-
ling places in response to the demand
of the element which was opposed to
an open town.
Rev. Wright explained another rath-
er involved question. that regarding
the operation of the gerrymander in
the the third ward. Rev. Wright said
that the ten or twelve saloons in Whit
ing would have to go out of business
as soon, as their licenses expire re-
gardless of gerrymander.
He aid that the city officials were
too slow and that the ward was not
divided until after the remonstrance
was fled This nullified the effect of
the gerrymander until after the two
years have passed by when it may
then by possible to have saloons in the
old third ward again.

SHANNON BREACHES
SENSATIONAL SERMON
Baptist Evangelist Scores

Last Night.
CONDEMNS DANCING 8 CARDS

Revival.
CONDEMNS DANCING 8 CARDS

The most sensational sermon of the
Baptist revival series that has been
preached in Hammond yet was hurled
at the heads of those who attended the
revival in the First Baptist church
last night
Evangelist Shannon preached last
night from the scripture, Where art
Thouis While there was much for
church members to feed upon yet there
was a tender message for the erring
who have not yet expressed a desire
to be religious. Rev. Shannon, in re-
ferring to Adam and Eve clothing
themselves with fig leaves, said,
There are hundreds of others today
trying to hide behind the fig leaves of
their old dead works and a formal
profession, some of you say you don't
like the way 1 talk; 1 don't like the
way you walk. When you walk diff
ferent, I'll talk different. The life of
many of our church members reminds
me, said the evangelist, of an old
Dutch man who "jined the church"
but he and his wife quarreled like cats
and dogs. One day the old man got up
in the meeting and said Before 1
joined the church I was one =" his
wife jumped up and said, "he is one =
yet. The preachers who are holding
you got into the church and you are
yet. The preachers who are holding
soft and easy jobs and laboring to
make it softer as the evangelist calls
it, got some hard hits. Some theo-
logs have D. D. put to the end of their
name which they say meant Doctor of
Divinity. 1t ought to be Doctor of
Vanity. These fellows I call preach
erets, or squirt gun preachers"
What would you think of me If I
would go to a dance and you you'd
see me there on the floor tripping it
off with my arm around a fair haired
woman? You's say that evangelist is
fofillisfa and hypocrite. So are you a
and n;cl-hypocrite. you dancing church
IF you would catch me play
"uu 4 game of cards you would say,
Simon, you are a CRATER. What are
ssd? You judge others and condemn
in doing it," continued Mr..
Shannon.
You can always tell what a man
is by what he likes. If a hog tumbles
into the mud, he wallows and grunts
because he likes it. If a sheep falls
in, it bleats and tries to get out, be-
cause it hates mud"
