There were about one hundred Of In.
diana Harbor and East Chicago's bes-
citizens present to enjoy the affair.
1t has always been customary for
suspicious housewives to look with dis
favor on stag smokers, but if the most
exacting "missus" had been present
last night she could not have found a
single offensive feature to protest over
The smoker was arranged along
elaborate lines and carried through in

great hit by combining themselves to
songs of the Aud Lang Syne' 'type.
One of the ladies gave an expert whist

was better than anything the famous
Mrs. Shaw produced in her palmiest
days. Mr.. Melbourne, the man who was

alton. 1t shall be the duty of this Off
cial to examine all of the reports which
