LIE IS PASSED
TO THE MAYOR
CONTINUED from Page ID

~
you did not assure me of your approval,
and it was at Kolb's drug store that we
talked the matter over, and you know
that as well as do" retorted Mr.
Duelke.
"YOU DTD''-ssI DIDN'T
You are fine specimen to sit there
and call me a liar. Why 1 ought to
have you arrested, and If I had a po-
liceman here I'd do it right now. That's
the spirit that you have shown for three
years" roared the mayor.
Il repeat it you are lying, for you
know as well as l 40 what YOU said
at Kolbs durg store" came back the
city clerk with an equal volume of
voice.
What other arguments might have
followed were cut short by the clamor
to adjourn.
Before leaving his desk the clerk
fred a parting shot at his chief and
said:
If I were one of your pets, mayor,
could have anything that I wanted. but
since 1 am not, I'll be turned down.
Everybody else has received what he
has asked for.
RELATIONS LONG SINCE COLD.

even demands that he send men to thaw
out frozen pipes and repair bursted
ones,
Frosted ears and faces were frequent
" reported. and the fact that it was
so surprisingly cold was responsible for
many frost bites that would not have
been experienced If mans senses had
been supplemented by glance at the
thermometer.
But the action OF the weather man in
sending frosty winds and a blanket Of
snow was generally approved The
merchants experienced a sudden expan-
sion of business only possible when real
winter weather sets in.
Winter Clothes Bought.
The frigid weather made a change
necessary in nearly every article of
clothing that is worn. Light hose was
substituted for wooden sox, oxfords
were discarded and heavy top shoes
were purchased, cotton underwear was
substituted for wooden except in the
case of the crank who prides hims elf
on his wearing f1shnet underwear, half
length. in zero weather.
Gloves, overcoats, caps. leggings, rub
bers and muffiers were purchased in
large quantities, and breakfast bacon
took the place of the summer breakfast
diet. Even the harness dealer sold
sleighbells and horse blankets, on &C
count of the frigid weather, and there
was hardly mercantile establishment
that was not affected by the change in
weather.
Building Operations Cease.
The only line of business hindered
by the cold was the construction bust
ness Building operations all over the
region were practically suspended I'M
til the weather moderates. 1t is i'm
possible for men to work to any ad-
vantage in the bitter cold and the ice
covering on everything makes the work
extremely hazardous.
The cold weather emphasizes the fact
that the Christmas holidays are close
at hand, and it is expected that the
Christmas shopping will begin in dead
earnest from now on.
The fact that the first purchasers
have the pick of the stock and that
early shopping Is done with much
more comfort and with more satisfac-
tory results, is at last coming to be ap-
preciated.

A Lake county lawyer recently

Paving Their Debts.

Crown Point citizens have money
and pay their debts, the fact which is
evidenced BY TIE recent payments on
the street paving and improvements
installed during the last summer. A
few statistics will probably be of In
terest to Crown Pointers showing the
amounts already paid. On the. whole
work over $4,000 has been paid into
the treasury, leaving a balance Of
something like $1.4OO TO be paid by the
waiver plan, which is remarkably small
considering the total amount Of the
contracted work. Grant street proves
to be the banner street in paying for
the paving and curbing work. out of
a total amount of $500 assessment,
only 1903 will be bonded and paid by
yearly assessments. More waivers
were signed on North Court street than
any other thoroughfare improved, and
the property owners or Nicholas
street, the short street paved, paid for
the work in full.
