Description of Elaborate
Church Edifce Which Will
Be Dedicated on Sunday
With Ponp I'd Ceremony
Program Out Tomorrow.

The new Christian church, which will
be dedicated next Sunday, is one of
Hammond's latest and one of the very
best public buildings. Many people
have heard of the building of this
church have not even guessed what
splendid building it is. To begin with,
it is the largest and most complete
church building in several counties Of
northwestern Indiana Although the
church members by donating large
amounts of work and using every
meane to accomplish splendid and
pleasing economy, have held the entire
cost down to less than $4,000, yet we
sure there is not a building any
where with the size, convenience and
quality of this church that has been
builded for less than $4,000.
The building is 120 feet long and 9S
feet wide. The exterior is of Roman
stone and brown vitrifed brick. Being
located in the wide angle between CAL
umet and Summer streets. the church
is shaped to this angle so as to present
both street fronts from one point of
view
The main church entrance is on the
corner of Calumet and Summer. The
Bible school entrance is on Calumet
avenue. There is a side entry on Sum
mer street and two entries from the
rear, aside from FIVE outside entries to
the basement.
On a trip through the building one Is
continually surprised at the unusual
and novel arrangements, conveniences
and novel contrivances. Above the front
door is star of Bethlehem in art
glass that is significant of the work of
the church, to lead men and women to
Christ. Immediately on entering one
is greeted by white cherub above the
foyer doors. The front vestibule is
large and has six double swinging
doors lead to the main auditorium.
These doors All have plate glass so
that those who enter may see what
service is going on before they enter.
To the right is a large plate glass mir

FOUR STORY
BUILDING

Fred Heintz has decided to build his
garage on Holman street to a heighth
of four stories. The building which
was first estimated to cost $4,000, will
now cost $4,000.
First 1T was proposed to erect two
story building, then three stories and
now four stories will be built. The
first floor is to be used as a salesroom
and for the machines that are ready to
go out.
The second floor Will be devoted to
accessories and will be a repair shop.
The third floor will be used for auto
mobile storage and the fourth floor
will be paint shop.
The building is now well under way
and only the lack of materials is de-
laying its construction. 1t is expected
that 1T will be completed by fall and
it will be one of the show buildings of
the city.

PEOPLE COMPLAIN
OF SMOKE NUISANCE
Several Factories Give Of
Tense When Stacks
Belch Smoke.

The people of Hammond are begin
ming to complain of the smoke nuis-
ance. There are a number of concerns
which seem to have boilers which
belc hout an unusual amount of smoke
The Hammond Pure Ice company is
one, and frequently several blocks of
the city are smothered in smoke. One
of the plants in the vicinity of the
Champion Potato Machinery company
is also an offender. Today large clouds
of smoke were blown from the stack
of this company into the business dis
trict of the city.
In addition, the Bick laundry and a
score Of locomotives make Hammond
one of the smokiest cities in this To-
cality. In addition to the agitationsfo for
a sweet-smelling atmosphere there is
a demand for a smokeless atmosphere

GET old
TICKETS AND
SELL THEM

Somebody has evidently been victim
ized in connection with the Jack John
son show at Towle opera house to-
night. Judging from the demands that
have been on the box office for re-
served seats somebody procured a lot
of old tickets several years old and
sold them as admission tickets to the
Towle opera house tonight
Manager Manderback said today that
they would not be honored at the box
office.
Jack Johnson is expected to arrive
this evening between 5 and o'clock
and instead OF coming by train he will
make the trip from Chicago in his 80
horse power automobile.

Activity in Politics.
The wide difference between the
number of foreigners who declare their
intentions to become citizens and the
number of those who eventually do
take out the naturalization papers is
attributed largely to the activity of po
ntical organizations interested in OBJ
tainng the votes of the foreigners. In
der the state law regulating the quail
fication of voters, a foreign born per-
son must have lived in the United
States one year and in the state six
months before he can become voter.
Having satisfied these conditions, he
may declare his intentions of becoming
q citizen, or atke out hs first papers
and he is then entitled to vote. In all

tions have looked carefully after the

To WIPE OUT
The FAMILY

An alleged threat to wipe out the
whole family, in a manner similar to
the Meyer triple tragedy in Chicago
yesterday, was made in Hammond this
morning in the residence of NJ. C.
Mauder, a saloonkeeper at 404 Indiana
avenue. The man who made the state
ment was, according to the story told
THE TIMES by Mr.. Mauder, his son-in-
law, Martin Trigge of South Chicago,
a salesman for the n. A. Williams com
pany. The threat is said to have been
directed in particular against Mrs.
Trigge. who is the daughter of Mr..
Mauder.
Trigse and Wife Separated.
Trigge and his wife have not lived
together for some time. Mrs. Trigge
had made arrangements to leave for
New York and in some way her hus-
band learned of her plans. He came
to the house this morning and, taking
a Chicago morning paper from his
pocket. he showed her the pictures of
the victims of the Chicago triple muir
der.
That is what will happen to you
if you leave" he is reported as say
ing Mr. Mauder overheard the re-
mark and asked him whether he meant
that as a threat He calmly told
Mauder that he did. He left the house
Immediately and while an effort has
been made to locate him he could not
be found.
Mr.. Mauder told THE TIMES today
that he would attempt to put his SON
-in-law under peace bond, and that
while his daughter is frightened at
the threat she will go east as original
ly planned

MUST
WAKE UP QUICK
CORPORATIONS ARE TRYING TO RIDDLE THE
NEW CITY CHARTER WITH THEIR
OWN MEASURES.


The final struggle for a
city charter worth while is
at hand. On some points at
issue the new charter, as the
tentative vote stands, is not
much better than the old one,
and unless the friends Of a
progressive charter assert
themselves, these emascu-
lated provisions will likely
be adopted.
Take, for instance, the
question of the universal
