THE SUN

With the prevailing bad weather the
tag day workers who get together
now are congratulating each other
that they got in their work last Sat
urday when the weather was splendid
instead Of having had to work under
a weather handicap.
The business in connection with the
day has all been closed up, and there
remains nothing but a neat little sum
for the poor and the satisfaction that
the work has been well done. The two
organizations who promoted the day
wish it thoroughly emphasized that
the lions share of the credit must go
to the girls, who acted as taggers.
Without their generous help there
could have been no success in the day
and Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Modjeska
who had charge of the day for the
philanthropic department of the Ham
mond Womans club and the Jewish
Ladies Aid society. respectively. insists
that to them should go the bulk Of the
credit
Mrs. Modjeska and Mrs. Turner met
yesterday at the Lake County Savings
and Trust company. and there in the
presence of a bank official divided the
proceeds for their respective organ
izations. After having subtracted the
expenses for the day there remained
for each organization $362.71. the days
total receipts having been $785.37.

East Chicago. Nov 16.-The East
Chicago city council held Is first meet
ing last night in six weeks. Every
one or the ten councilmen were pres

transacted.
Probably the most important feature
of the meeting was the acceptance Of
the big Alder street sewer which
Green & Sons have just completed. The
cost Of the sewer was approximately
1851 900 and 1t took just about year
to do the work. Vice President c. A.
Westberg of the East Chicago company
asked permission on behalf of his COM
pany to build a bridge across the canal
on Chicago avenue I'm order to ex-
pedite the work of dredging the canal
and also requested that the city order

far as any bond is concerned.
Z. Castleman admitted to the council
men last night that he did not intend
to build tracks on every street he was
asking for and that the streets upon
which he failed to build would revert
to the city in two and a half years
This was a tacit admission that he
was trying to tie up the streets of the
city and prevent honest competition.
S. The passage of the Castleman
franchise is in effect equal to declara-
ton on the part of the Whiting council
as follows. I'VE fail to recognize the
fact that the Red line, the pioneer line
in our city, has done the city a serv-
ice by operating its line through our
city for twenty years at a loss. We
will now force them to give up their
rights in Whiting and turn them over
to Castleman, an interurban adventur-

are opposed to competition and we

than a bird in the hand.
A Few Bad Features.
The above are only a few of the
many bad features of the franchise

headed council last evening, which is
about to be retired from office. and

people.

COL. |. 7. MEYER TELLS STORY
Of HIS NORTHERN HUNTING TRIP


mo tenderfoot will ever stalk a
game in that country said Colonel LIE
Grand T. Meyer, yesterday. upon his
return from far away Canadian woods,
where he had hunted big game sue
cessfully. He made the assertion with
out taking any undue glory to him
self for having been up there. and adj
mitted that it was a hard and trying
experience far beyond his expectation.
The skin Of a young bull moose.
which he brought with him. and the
antlers and head Of an old bull which
is now in the hands OF the taxidermist,
give mute evidence Of. is skill. They
represent only small portion of the
game that he and his guide shot, but,
owing to lacl, of transportation facili-
ties, very nearly nothing could be
brought home
Already many OF mis- friends have
come to his office to see the trophies
that he has brought from the north.
but he tells them TO wait and see the
big moose's head that is still to come
The average spread of a big bull moose
antIers is forty inches. but the one
which he shot is sixty inches. and is one
of the biggest that has been shot in
the woods in long time. Fowl, fish,

were side lines and were easy picking
for the huntsmen. With the exception
of the wolves. they shot enough only
to keep them in supply of food, and
