Crown Point, Ind, June 15-Much
sympathy is expressed here for DR..
Harry B. Hayward, who lost an eye
during golf game in Jackson Park
recently. He is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. H. Hayward of this place and
had more than local reputation as an
athlete in many branches. The discov-
cry of romance in connection with
the young physicians injury has made
the case even more interesting.

A Chicago paper in telling of the en-
gagement says:

time. Almost Immediately afterwards
the doctor accompanied Miss Badenoch
to the home of her parents, former
Alderman and Mrs. Joseph Badenoch,
where he will stay while in the city.
Miss Badenoch, her school girl sister,
Margaret, her mother and DR.. Howard
were at the Badenoch home yesterday
discussing the accident.

Why, I never heard of such an idea.

The doctor says that it isn't going
to make much difference in his power
of vision after all. ust because the
wedding day has not been announced
doesn't mean the engagement is to be
cancelled We weren't quite ready to
announce it, or it would have come out

CORNER STONE
is LAID YESTERDAY
st. Brides Catholic Church
at Windsor Park Scene
of Big Ceremonial.

The corner stone for ST. Brides new
Catholic church of Windsor Park was
laid yesterday afternoon with impress
sive ceremonies.
The silver trowl was welded BY the
Right Rev. Bishow Muldoon, who was
assisted by a score of priests from the
surrounding parishes. The day was
ideal for the work and thousands of
people stood in the open air at Sew
enty-eighth street and Coles avenue.
The services, which were in the ma
ture Of church services began promptly
at o'clock, and lasted for more than
an hour. Standing around the founda-
ton of the $4,000 building, were. the
various societies that had turned out
to march in honor of the occasion. In
the ranks stood st. Florians society of

where all the societies gathered. From
the starting point they marched north
to Seventy-seventh street, thence west
to Coles avenue, and thence south to
Seventy-eighth street, where the new
church will be loctaed.
ST. Brides parish is now fifteen years
old and includes the English speaking
Catholics from Windsor Park and Chel-
tenhm. The congregation was founded
fifteen years ago by the present pas
tor, Rev. P. D. O'Sullivan, who upon
coming to the neighborhood found only
a handful of Catholics there. The
reputation of the parish spread, how
ever, and more Catholics, wishing to
be near a place of worship, moved into
the neighborhood.
The first church of the parish, which
is still in existence and now standing
beside the new building, was built in
the first year. 1t is a one-story brick
affair and in good repair When the
new church is completed, the old build
ing will be renovated and two stories
added to the old building which Will
then be used for school purposes.
Father O'Sullivan is assisted by Rev.
John Trainor.

HAMMOND MAN
BUILDS NEW HOTEL
F. A. Pekonik Lets Contract
For Structure at In
diana Harbor.

Building operations in Indiana Har-
Dor indicate that this city suffered the
least of any in the Calumet region from
the recent financial furry. The latest
announcement of a business block
comes from F. A. Pekonik, 27S Truman
street. Hammond, who was formerly in
the grocery business here and made
some fortunate investments in Indiana
Harbor before that city reached it's
present size.
The building which Pekonik will
build in Indiana Harbor is to be To-
Gated at the corner of Waiting and
Block avenue The building will be a
hotel, two stories high. It's dimensions
will be % by so feet and the building
will be constructed of pressed brick,
trimmed with stone
The hotel will have a store on the
main floor, which will either be used
for a saloon or a restaurant and on
the second floor there will be 20 rooms
VIII Be Handsome Block.
The floors will be of maple and pine
with pine finish and the whole build
ing will be heated with steam. The
estimated cost of the structure will be
$4,000 and the work of construction
will begin as soon as the plans are re-
ceived from Architect Perely Hale of
Chicago.
When completed the new Indiana
Harbor business block will be one of
the most substantial and attractive in
the city. 1t will be right on the way
from the mill to the business portion
of the city and will, because of its con-
venient location, be a valuable piece of
property.
Mr. Pekonik does not know yet
whether he will lease it to some one
who will conduct the business indie
dendently. He has already had several
opportunities to rent the building but
will wait until it is completed before
he makes a deal

FIRE F|END DESTROYS
PROPERTY At GARY
Three Thousand Dollars
Goes Up in Smoke Sat
urday Afternoon.
EVEN CASH REGISTER BURNED
Ten Bad Fires Have Taken Place
in Gary Within the Past
Few Months.
EVEN CASH REGISTER BURNED

Another disastrous fire devastated a
building Saturday afternoon In Gary,
leaving the ono story building which is
located at Washington and Ninth ave-
nues mass of ashes, covered here and
there by a few charred boards which
had escaped the flames. The building
was used as a meat market by Charles
A.. MulIin, the owner. The loss on the
building and stock amounted to over
$4,000.
The fire, like that which destroyed the
Hessler hotel building a week ago, was
of unknown origin. 1t was said that
it was possible that some cats which
had been playing about some kerosene
lamps had upturned them. but the
theory does not seem plausible for sew
eral reasons The blaze was first dis
covered by Mr.. Mullin, who had just
returned to the rear of the store after
waiting on a customer. When he step
ped into the back room he saw the
house mass of flames and that it was
useless for him to try to do anything.
Police Also Helped.
The police who also act in this city
as the fire department. were then called
and responded with the reel of hose.
After they had arrived they found that
they could do nothing with the flames
and concerted for a time. that the shack
near the building occupied by Henry
Weber was doomed and the furniture
was removed but by playing a stream
of water on it the building was saved.
Like the Hessler building, the butcher
shop was consumed in less than an
hour and there was no possible chance
OF saving even the currency in the cash
register.
Fortunately for the whole south side
this building happened to be a little
apart from the rest of the buildings in
that neighborhood or the flames might
have devastated the whole south end.
IF BENEFITS restaurant which is within
two hundred feet Of the place, had
caught fire there would probably have
been a property loss of many thousands
of dollars.
Suffers a Complete Loss.
Beside the destruction of the build
ing, Mr.. Mullin suffered the loss of a
complete stock of goods, none of which
he was able to save. There was also
$74 dollars in currency which he did
not have time to get out. The building
was insured by Thomas E. Knots for
Si,750. Luckily for Mr.. Mullin he had
just made the payments on his insur-
ance for an additional $3.50, just a few
hours previous to the fire.
This last confiagration has aroused
the whole nefghborhood south of the
Wabash tracks. The danger of having
the whole south end swept UP in a
single fire is SO apparent that the bust
ness men should take some action in
providing protection at once. AS the
city is handicapped because of the fact
that there is no way of financing the
establishment and equipment of a fire
station at the present time. the citizens
should take the matter I'D Individually.
They could not only organize a vclun-
teer fire department but could at least
equip their buildings with fire ex-
tinguishers as a safe guard.

Loveman. Josenh & Loeb.

Hundreds of people thronged the NAM
moth Loveman, Joseph & Loeb store
I yesterday, in response to an invitation
to their annual fall opening. Never in
+ the history of this magnificent empor-
/ ium has a more elaborate tasteful, or
elegant display of dry goods, millinery,
boots, Shoes gowns, wraps, croekery,
and furniture been seen. Every depart
ment showed the master hand of the
artist, without which nothing is COM
plete.
The big store had donned its best
clothes for the occasion and no prettier
sight can be imagined than the brilliant
spectacle it presented. Affable and eour-
teous attention from host to guest, was
a marked feature of the occasion and it
is safe TO say that many new followers
were added TO the already large Glen
tele which this popular firm already pos
Sesses.
During the two days OF the opening
there is ample opportunity for women
to become acquainted with tie latest de-
signs in feminine apparel from shoes TO
hats. An important feature of this store
is the excellence of its dressmaking de-
partment Thoroughly equipped with
which art can suggest, the gowns de-
signed and executed by a modiste who
is the peer of any in tire sartorial line
will be found satisfactory from every
standpoint.
One could lnger hours in the millin-
cry department alone, for this falls
headgear is a study. The hats are larger
and at the Loveman, Josepts & Loeb
store the imported hats and the foreign
models disclose the most advanced in
genuity of the designers of these artistic
features Of feminine clothing.
A Kurzman model is stunning in otto
man silk of exquisite violet. The hat
is very large and around the crown
in graceful folds is violet net Caught
within it's meshes is a gorgeous plume
shading from deep violet TO taupe, and
making the most artistic and exquisite
trimming.
No less beautiful is a Loveman, Joseph
& Loeb model of black satin, the fac
ing of the softest white beaver. Around
the crown is arranged quantities of the
palest pink feathers with here and
there a saucy looking rose peeping out.
With the pretty hats are sold the love
lest ruches following the directoire idea.
These are made at Loveman's and are
artistically and charmingly fashioned.
They are to be had to match any hat
and in the choicest materials.

The Ferd Marx Store.

The expression IF it's a Ferd Marx
style it's correct is a household motto
in Birmingham. and it was never verified
more forcibly to the public than at the
attractive fall opening which this fash
ionable store arranged yesterday and to-
day for its large number of patrons and
friends.
1t was a splendid chance for women to
ascertain what the most approved styles
are in suits, skirts, waists, millinery and
dress goods for fall and winter wear. No
less important is the mems furnishing de-
partment, which carries the latest novel
ties in ties, handkerchiefs, socks, shirts
and all the necessities required by the
well-dressed man.
The dressmaking department of the
Ferd Marx store is one of its most at
tractive adjuncts, and under the skillful
and artistic management of one of the
finest modistes in the south will continue
this season as heretofore to create and
produce the latest and most stylish gowns
and suits

feminine garments. 1t is an exhibition to
delight the eye, as well as to enlighten
the mind of women, and has been aptly
termed "a festival of fashion,
Upon entering the store the seven tables
arranged consecutively in the colors of
red, brown, navy blue. green, heliotrope
and black, occupying the center aisle, are
beautiful. The color scheme of each
table includes chiffon wells, ruffs, gloves,
silk hose, directoire girdles, opera and
shopping bags and jewelled belts.
The dress goods department includes the
loveliest chiffon, silks, broadcloth, It's
sues, laces and nets.
The millinery parlors are replete with
the most attractive models. Two of the
stunning ones are Suzanne Talbot i'm

Loventhal's.

Loventhal's fall opening, which was an
nounced for yesterday and today, is one
of the most important in the number of
fashionable events of this kind which has
interested the women of Birmingham this
season. Throngs of people were in and
out of the popular establishment all day
yesterday-gong to Misunderstanding TO
praise the beautiful selections of tailor
suits, gowns, wraps waists, pett1coals
and the pretty feminine things which
women love so much.
The growth of the Loventhal store has
been nothing short of marvellous. With
increased facilities for the display of
goods remodeled fixtures, redecorated
rooms and every up-to-date equipment,
the store presents most enviable ap-
pearance quite in keeping with the high
tone of its exclusive garments and novel
ties.
The need of a ready-to-wear store was
keenly felt in Birmingham, and when
Loventhals was first opened it met with
a wave of public favor which 1T has sus-
tanned and enjoyed ever since.
Every woman who paid visit to the
store yesterday was impressed with the
ultra smart tone of its contents. The
models displayed were not only correct in
style and workmanship but showed an
unusual amount of taste in the seee-
ton. From the simple tailor-made gown
to the most elaborate was exhibited at
the opening and the costumes of broad"
cloth, satin, silk and chiffon were ex-
quisite.
Imported gowns, as well as those of
domestic workmanship, claimed the at
tention, and it must needs be woman
of perverted taste who could not be
pleased here.
The suit department at Loventhals con-
tains many suggestions. 1t is noticed
that the trimmings are radically different
from previous seasons. Satin is used al
most exclusively in trimmings, and braid
and buttons are employed in ornamental
ton There is so much material for dis
cussion in the suit department that no
woman can appreciate it until she has

Bessemer, September 2S.-(Special)-An-
ME, the little 7-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs George Whitley of Brighton was
operated on at Robinson's infirmary at
Gas this afternoon and it is feared that
she is in dying condition. The child
was seized with severe palms yesterday
afternoon and today the doctors became
convinced that an immediate operation
was necessary and the patient was re-
moved to the hospital late this after
noon where it was found that the ap-
pendix had burst and the poisonous
fluid had run into the abdominal cavity
which renders her case most serious.
George Whitley, the father of the little
girl, has been employed at the big pipe
works for a number of years as fore
man of the carpenters and has large
number of friends both in Bessemer and
Brighton who deeply sympathize with him
and his wife in their painful anxiety.
