Patronage Of the Affair
Was of the Best.
ANOTHER ONE NEXT YEAR

Due to the excellent patronage CIV
en- the May Musical Festival by the cit
izens of Richmond, the affair was ex-
traordinarily successful from a finan.
cial standpoint. Although the detail
ed financial statement has not been
prepared 1t is believed by the officers
of the Commercial club under the aus
pices of which organization 1t was Civ
en-, that several hundred dollars was
cleared. The money will be used for
the promotion Of musical affairs to be
given hereafter.
Because Of this success, and also be-
cause the club believes that the affair
was sincerely appreciated by the pub
lie. Richmond will undoubtedly have
another May Festival in 1911. The
plans for next years affair will be CIV
en- consideration at a future meeting
OF the Commercial club.
Committees Of the club to which were
assigned particular duty in connection
with the festival. are now busily en-
gagged in winding up the business. The
total expense Of the affair is not as
yet accurately known. but Is estimated
at approximately $1,000. The officers
Of the club have not as yet been in
formed what the receipts will total.
As soon as these matters are definite
~ known, a detailed statement will be
made public.

BUSINESS MEN JUb|LANT
OVER NEW DEPOT STORY

THE TINES story that the Monon
railroad will build new depot in
Hammond came as welcome news to
the business men of Hammond who
realize that a new depot in the heart
of the town will improve it wonder
fully.
They are unanimous in the opinoin
that the agitation that has been car
ried on in the press and by the Ham
mond Business Mems association is re-
sponsible for the fact that the rail-
road has decided to build.
The opinion is also expressed that
the decision of the Monon railroad to
build a new depot in Hammond will
mean that the Erie railroad will have
to get busy and Hammond Will then
have a fine a lot of depots as can be
found in the average city of this size.
The decision of the Monon people TO
build on the site of the old depot came
a surprise to many of the bust
ness men of the city who have been
watching the depot situation

NOTED during the past few days while
the work of preparing for the cere
monial next Thursday has been going
on.
This project involves the organizing
of a Shrine band and patrol and TAX
ing it to Fort Wayne Oct. ) and 6. on
the occasion of the Mardi Gras which
will be held there on those dates
1t is believed that this plan would
advertise Hammond and Orak temple
among the Shriners of the state and
would afford the members of the local
Shrine an opportunity to take fine
trip.
Twenty-Five petitions for membership
to the Shrine have been received by
Recorder John w. Morthland, but it is
not believed that more than twenty OF
the candidates Will appear for initia-
ton.
However, the local field has been too
thoroughly covered to make a new
Shrine class of 100 possible again for
some time.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1910-09-27

"A difficulty arises in the choice Of
pitchers. The possible candidates are
Hoffner Kistler and Kowalski Each
have characteristics in which they
excel Hoffner is a hard player while
Kistler is extremely careful. But be-
cause of abundant speed. good breaks
and fair control Kowalski seemed the
headliner to me.
For the first corner Winkler is the
right man for the position. Although
Klee is more effective at bat. but
Winkler is better in the field and on
the bases. The sickness which caused
Klee's absence from the game during
the last month also eliminates him
from the AlI-Stars list
Pears is undoubtedly the man for
second. Wheeler comes next, being
a natural batter, but maker of errors
on the field.
AT shortstop Otto leads the list
without any opposition. He is in a
class by himself and should have a
future in the game.
The logical choice for third is
Glawe, who played early in the season
and the last few games. From the rec
ord he is the best base runner in the
all-tars. Filders Rodhe, Hauny and
McCarty are good batters. Blake
should fill the position OF substitute
fielder

superior to the old site
Two things stood in the way of this
site. however. One was that the prop
erty necessary to make the site avail
able could not be purchased except
at an excessive valuation. and second
ly, that the road would be deprived Of
site for its freight depot.
This will be a heavy blow to the
people who reside on Fayette street
They have been looking forward to the
building of the new depot on the site
between Sibley and Fayette streets and
expected that this would in time make
Fayette street a good business thor
oughfare
Now they realize that it will take a
long time for Fayette street to develop
into a business street. In fact it has
been suggested by people who own
property on Fayette street that some
thing ought to be done to induce the
railroad to build on the site first se-
leced.
Johnston Pleased.
One man said: The cost of seeur-
ing the necessary property for the Sib-
leyFayette street site would be about
$4,000, and that those who own prop

railroad could be induced to build
there"
