PAJAMAS
ADD To
TROUBLE



Indiana Harbor Ind, Aug. 23.-There
was an impromptu pajama and XII
mono party at the South Bay hotel last
night 1t was gotten up when the
storm arose, on the spur of the moment.
anw now that it is all over, is voted a
success. Every inmate of the hotel
was up. the ladies in their most fetch
ing kimonos and the men in their pa
jamas. selected without thought as to
whether they looked pretty or not.
No one was injured in the big hos
telry. nor was any damage done worth
mentioning. the wind wreaking its fury
on one lone tree which was snapped off
like a reed. Instead of the lake climb
ing the verandas, as would seem the
natural thing for 1T to do, it lay calm
as lily pad, as though the wind was
not careening over 1t at the rate of
sixty or seventy miles an hour.
In the midst of the storm the cleo
tric lights went out, and the men went
around with candles, which added to
the picturesqueness of the scene
There is courage in numbers and those
who were frightened had their fears
laughed away by the Drawer hearts, and
after the worst of IL was over every
body retired and slept the sleep of the
| righteous.

DUDLEYS OPEN THEIR
THEATRICAL. SEASON

Mr. and Mrs Frank Dudley have
opened their theatrical season in Padu-
cab, Ky, with their own stock COM
pany. Mrs. Dudley is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. NJ. Boney of Hammond.
and she and her husband have the lead
ing roles in the performance they are
putting on. This is the fourth year
they have had their own company, last
year enjoying a prosperous season in
Kansas City. The local stars have been
seen in productions in the south far
more than IN the north, and while
their fame has reached Hammond from
many sources, Hammond has yet to see
them in their chosen profession.

ALDERMAN
IS GREATLY
BOTHERED

Last evening at the Gary council
meeting City Clerk Moose introduced
a resolution providing for the printing
instead of the signing of the clerks
and mayors signature upon the $780,
600 bond issue. It was intended to
have a fac-simile of the issue litho-
graphed upon the bonds.
Alderman Castleman misunderstood
the intent of the resolution, and
thought that 1t meant merely the
printing of the signatures in Custer
bold 12-point or some other apprapri-
ate type.
In an instant the south end states
man was on his feet waving his arms
so much so that the draught caused
City Clerk Moses hair to stand up
straight and every paper in the vicinity
was blown off the table.
Il object" said Alderman Castle
man, this here'll be illegal. This will
have to be fack-smilliner" of the
signature and it can't be printed It'll
have to be engraved. stereotyped and
Autographed in order to make it valid y
Finally, after many explanations and
a hundred or more motions and amend
ments, Alderman Castleman learned
that the fac-simile was just what was
intended in the resolution Mr.. Moose
was reading.

ENGLISH WOMAN
DISCUSSES DIVORCE

By united Press wire.
New York, Dec. 10-"Make marriage
not divorce, more difficult and the
latter question will he solved. Easy
marriage and lack of education is
the real cause for most domestic
troubles said Mrs. Hugo Ames, Eng
llsh authoress, today.
Divorce is too easy to obtain i'm
the United states and too hard to OBJ
tain in England" she continued. "The
result Is that in both countries there
is contempt for the marriage vow.
"The lowest thing a woman can do
is to marry for home and the
thought of the number of women who
do it both in this country and Eng
land Is sickening.
English noblemen are not noble
men when they marry American girls
for their dollars but they are no worse
than the girls who so sell themselves
But to remedy existing causes we
must first educate the children. Edu-
cation and that alone, will cure the
divorce evil"

LANDES FARM
SELLS FOR $6,40O
For the Second Time the Property Is
Sold by the sheriff.

The Landes farm, located in Ma
rion and Union counties, was sold
the second time at sherift's sale Sat
urday afternoon. The purchase price
was $1,000 and the sale was made to
Edward Ruth.
The farm was sold some weeks
ago for $4,000 to John Travis. After
the sale had been made the attorneys
who filed the petition asking for a
partition of the farm, asked the
court to set aside the sale for the
reason that some bidders had been
kept from bidding because Of suit
for divorce and an injunction prevent
ing the sheriff from turning over 20
Harley Landes the money belonging
to him as an heir. Under a bond Of
81 800 that the property would be sold
for not less than $4,000 the sale was
set aside and re-advertisad. The sale
this afternoon releases the attorneys
of all obligation.
