, Will be so dry that it will pnrch
3 ones lips and call forth Moth

deal was closed by Gostlin, Meyn
& Co. today for the sale of the Kinks
addition to the city of Hammond to
F. S. Betz of the F. S. Betz Co. for an
unnamed consideration.
The Kinks addition is one of the
Oldest subdivisions in Hammond and
was opened shortly after Homewood
was laid out. 1t was recently sold to
Oliver L Watson, $50 Washington
street. Chicago. but Mr.. Betz bought
the property today after considera BILE
negotiation.
This is one of the largest deals that
has taken place in this city since the
recent financial panic. 1t is second
only in Importance to the trade which
A. NJ. Turner made with the Erie Rail-
road company by which he was enabled
to open up his Calumet avenue addi-
tion.
These two deals and the numerous
sales of lots in Hammond and vicinity
make 1t apparent that there is a good
market for properly advertised lots in
Hammond and that nowhere is the real
estate market more active than in
Hammond.

its utmost capacity and everybody pre-
sent was jolly and good natured in
Apite of the downpour of rain. The
music was furnished by the Wapella

dancing from early in the evening un-

erous contestants for the prizes offered
for the best and most graceful walters
and finally the judges awarded the
