Of LAKE co.
DETERMINED BY DIRECTORY
Interesting Figures Are Brought Out by Men Who Are
Compiling the Lake County Directory
This w inter.

The Lake county directory is now
near enough completed so that it is
possible to tell the population of the
various cities of the county. The re-
turns are in for every city of the eoun-
ty, excepting Gary. and of every town.
ship except Calumet. This is the last
place the enumeration was made be-
cause Gary's population is changing
and new people are coming in all of
the time. The returns. however, show
unquestionably that Hammond is the
first city, in point of population. in the
county. East Chicago, which, of course.
includes East Chicago and Indiana
Harbor is the second city in size and
Gary is probably third Whiting is
fourth.
The directory population of Ham
mond is given at 22.450; East Chicago.
1918: Indiana Harbor, 1900; Whiting.
6.2S1. Crown Point. 2,542; Hobart. 1851.
Then comes the smaller towns and
townships as follows: St John, 1925;
Cedar Greek, 1,155; Ross, 1908; North.
1,041: West Creek, 1.03s; Hanover. 997 !;
Center 917; Winfield. 721; Eagle Creek,
621; Munster. 542, and Miuers, SCI.
Estimating Gary's population at 49,
600. which is a high estimate. there
are 70.260 people in Lake county, ac-
cording to the directory census. This
makes Lake county one of the most
populus in the state.
While Hammond is found TO have
only 22.460 people, this does not in
clude West Hammond, which is really
part of Hammond, except that it is
not part of the political entity.
West Hammond is believed to have
at least 5000 population and so far as
the commercial Importance of Ham
mond is concerned its business men
have a population of $1,000 or $4,000
to draw from. It is also believed that
the floating population of the city,
which is temporarily reduced on ac-
count of the lack of activity in some
of the Hammond mills, would bring it
up to 10000 in normal times
These figures are interesting in view
of the claims which We're made by
both Gary and the Hammond boosters

TOLLEsTON.

Regarding the statements in Thurs
day evenings GARY TIMES pertain
ing to the possible erection of gas
plant and water works by the town
itself, it may be added that the town
board has deferred all action in this
matter to April.
About the amalgamation it may be
said that this matter has never been
brought before the board, not even in
formally. 1t is therefore difficult to
say what action the board would take
take after all legal points pertaining
to amalgamation, or annexation were
complied with.

Driver Shows Bravery

More than ordinary bravery was
shown yesterday afternoon by Christ
Covachevich, a driver for the Title
Bros. Packing company, who was held
up at the point of a gun while on a
delivery trip. He put up such a des-
perate battle that he frightened his as
sailant away and incidentally saved
$3.50 for his employers.
Christ was on a trip to the North
west Inn, and having arrived in the
outlying district he was approached by
a man who wanted a ride. He was
told that the load was already too
heavy. but he followed closely. AS the
driver sprang from his seat he was
confronted by showed big revolver
in face and demanded money. Christ
very coolly told him that he did not
intend to give him and set about to be-
labor his assailant, who, being worsted
sought protection in flight.

Burnham. Ill, Feb. 13.-When is

test Mr.. Burbank of seed1ess apple
fame, and it might start heated argu-
ment between botanist and zoologist,
