Scoops" Everybody Con-
corning Appropriation for
Remodeling Court House,
as Well as on That of
Plans Being Drawn.
OSCAR KR|NB|LL TO
Be CONGRATULATED

Tt was a happy lot of lawyers and
business men who read in THE TIMES
last evening that the Lake county coun-
ell had made the appropriation of $60,-
GOO for the remodeling of the Lake
superior court house. 1t was the first
positive step toward the securing of
an extra judge in Hammond and the
claims of this city for the appointment
of this extra Judge viii be all the
stronger as a result.
It is a fact appreciated by the read
ers of THE TINES that this paper print
ed the first story to the effect that
plans for the new court house had
been drawn, accompanying 1t with
picture Of the remodeaed court house.
and then gave out the first positive in
formation to the effect that the appro-
priation had been made.
All on Anxious Sent.
The passing of the appropriation had
been anticipated by the lawyers and
business men of the city for the past
two days and naturally everyone in
the city was intensely interested in
knowing just what the county council
men would do.
The appropriation was secured, how
ever. only by the hardest of work on
the part of the few public-sp spirited men
who always come to the fore when
there is something needed for the city.
There was session after session in
which the various members of the coun-
ty council We're closeted by the Ham
mond attorneys and the needs of Ham
mond presented in the most forcible
/ manner.
| Opposition was expected from only
| two councilmen, but they became con-
! vinced of Hammond's needs and vot-
ed for the appropriation. It was
thought that Henry Batterman of Dy-
er was in favor of the appropria-
tion. but it was found when it came
to a vote that he was against Ham
mond in the matter.
Krinbiu Gets Credit.
The credit for the appropriation be-
| longs to oscar Krinbill of Hammond,
who has been the most faithful repre-
sentative that Hammond has had in
recent years on the board of county
! commissioners. He worked indefatiga-
bly, for the measure and his diplomacy
and careful handling of the matter
was largely responsible for final sue
cess.
But there were others who deserve
a part Of the credit. Secretary e. F.
Johnston Of the Hammond Business
Mems association. has been on the job
from the very start. and it was he who
interested the business and profession
al men OF Hammond and induced A. NJ.
Turner. w. G. Paxton and John r.
Fitzgerald to load up their automo-
biles and take a crowd of business
men to the county seat to work for
the measure. Judge =. S. Reiter also
worked hard for the appropriation.
But the appropriation has been made
and the county eouncilmen viii at
once advertise for bids on the improve
ment As this wiz take the matter into
the middle Of the winter. it is not be-
lieved that the actual work of cons
struction will begin until spring

CHANGE PRINCESS TO
VAUDEVILLE HOUSE
Local Theater to Assume a
New Complexion Price
May Be Haised.

The Princess theater, Hammond, own
ed by T. w. Englehardt, is to be chang
ed to a vaudeville theater 1t is pos
sible that several vaudeville acts will
be put on at each performance and
that the price Of admission will be
increased to 10 cents
There is an alternative plan to sub
stitute one vaudeville act for one set
of pictures and keep the price down to
8 cents. It is probable, however, that
the former plan will be adopted.
Manager Riley said yesterday that
as soon as the weather got a little
cooler and the patronage of the the
ater increased accordingly he would
make some changes in the bill.
He said he believed that a 10-cent
admission fee and a good vaudeville
program would be a paying PROPOSE
tion. When the Princess theater takes
up vaudeville the only scent theater
in the city will be the Idle Hour, on
State street

NickeIodium Passing.

In fact. it will practically mark the
passing of the scent theater in Ham
mond. The Wonderland theater, on
West State street, near the corner of
State and Holman street, did not prove
a paying proposition after the Prin-
cess was started, and It is now being
converted mot candy store.
With the changes that are now being
made Hammond will have one full
hedged theater, three 1O-cent theaters
and a scent theater-quite enough
amusement houses to provide enter
tainment for the city's 10000 inhabit-
ants.
