OIL WELL
NOT SHOT
At IAAyER
Especial to THE TrMEs.l

1t was expected that the oil well
at Thayer would be shot yesterday
and there were number of Lake
county people who. went down to see
the charge fired.
There were also large number of
people from the surrounding country
districts on hand to see whether the
work of several months would bring
forth fruit.
1t was discovered. however. that the
railroads refused to transport the
quantity of nitro glycerine that was
needed to shoot the well and the event
that thes whole countryside has been
looking for was delayed.
No fntimatfon was given as to when
the well would be shot as it is not
known how long lit will take to trans
port the nitro-glycerine to the we'll. 1t
is said that there is every indication
that flowing well has been discovered

Mixed UP
IN MINOL|n DIVORCE
New Developments Are Ex-
pected to Be Brought
Out in Trial.

A Hammond policeman is mixed up in
the Mindlin divorce case, according
to reports, and IT is said that in one
OF the many letters which Charles
Stewart wrote 10 Elsie Mindlin, he
seemed to be somewhat worried for
fear the policeman would beat his time.
A uniformed Romeo seems bound
to be one of the sensations of the
Mindlin divorce case when it finally
comes to trial. 1t is understood that
there are other sensations that are
likely to be sprung at the trial in
which the threat Of gun play was one.

Scouts the Idea.

John Glennon of Hotel Majestic. has
received a number of inquiries from
hotel men who would like to buy him
out but he says that in nearly every
case they have only $500 to $1,000 to
invest in the business.
He says that there are very few no.
tel men who have money enough to
take over a proposition of this kind.
Glennon scouts the idea of a new hotel
in Hammond. and says that it would
not begin to pay an interest on the in
Fvestment.

MOTOR BOAT CLUB
POSIPONES OPENING
Seasons Initial Day Will
Be Made a Most Mem
CRADLE One.
NO GOATS NAaER
Cold Weather And Desire For Com
fort of Feminine Motorists Cause
For Postponement.


The seasons opening day for the
Hammond Motor Boat club has been
postponed from next Sunday to June
18th. This was decided upon at the
meeting last night, the action having
been taken to forestall any unfavor-
able weather
The opening day is to be a memoir
able event in the clubs annals and
preparations, are now in progress for
the same. All the boats will be spic
and span and the engines nj shape
to give their utmost power. Each
member of the club is to have party
of friends whom he is to take along on
a little trip up or down tn eriver The
probabilities are that there will be a
little trip up or down the river. The
probabilities are that there will be
big basket dinner, but the pretty club
house at Hammond is to be the princi-
pal rendezvous. Here those of the
party who do not. care 10 go on the riv-
er may enjoy themselves at either in
door or outdoor games. No attempt
will be made TO hold any races on
this day. The courses will lie toward
Lake Michigan on the eastern course
and toward the forks the western
course.
For the Ladies' Comfort.
1t was with much regret that the
club postponed its opening day, but
the club members had the comfort of
their ladies at heart for that day, and
while the members themselves feel
hardened toward the chilly winds. they
did not feel warranted to subject the
ladies to any May weather. The prob
abilities are that the local club will
have as many twenty boats on the
water on that day, and invitations have
been sent to the neighboring clubs.
BY the time the opening day arrives
Henry Lindner of West Hammond
hopes to have his new power boat in
the water. William Gordon is also
negotiating TO have his new twenty
fve-foot power boat in the water for
the opening day. In the meantime,
however, the various members of the
club are enjoying rare sport on the
river in their water crafts. The weather
is still little cold ts make the rides
much of a pleasure trip. the chilly
winds are Offset by the ardor and en-
thusiasm of the shippers.

WHAT IS THE MATTER
WITH THE BUCKEYES?
Ohio Furnishing More Wor-
ry for Police Than Any
Other State.
TENDER MORAL FIBRES THERE
some Of Hammond's Classiest Citi-
zens, However, Come From
the Buckeye State.

The state of Ohio is furnishing more
police subjects of late in Hammond
than any other state outside of Indiana,
and this, of course, cannot be taken
into the counting. Those who are
watching the police records see some
significance in this, but the opinion Is
divided as to the cause. The local
sons of the Buckeye state defend the
state of their birth by saying that the
Hoosier influences are demoralizing to
the tender moral fibres in the Buckeye
makeup, while those who would rat
tie the Ohio skeleton say that Ohio is
unloading it's undesirable citizens onto
the fair Hoosier state. The latter is a
broad assertion and cannot stand when
1t is remembered that some of Ham
mond's "classiest" citizens hail from
the state whence come President Taft
and Jim Jeffries.
Two Fined Today.
The aforesaid undesirable citizens
are not very bad lot. They will get
a few too many under the belt and
land in the police station. Few squads
of drunks are brought in the city
court. but what one or two Buckeye
are scattered among them. Pittsburg
Is regular contributor to the Indiana
sinking fund, but Ohio is in the lead
among the states not to mention Indi-
ana. In the squad of FIVE who were
brought up before Judge Barnett in the
city court this morning two were Ohio
men. They were John Brunack, a
printer, and l.. II. Brown. Both were
inebriated. but Brunack added to the
shame OF his state by begging. Each
one was fined 81 and costs, and both
will have to go to the county Jail The
other three who were fined were Jas.

Not in years has there been so much
interest manifested in the Lake county
high school track and field meet as
there is in the contest that will be held
in Crown Point tomorrow.
Heretofore it has been a foregone
conclusion that Hammond would win
the meet. 1t was simply a question
among the other schools to which
team would get second.
Tomorrow there are four high school
teams which have g chance to win the
meet and the element Of luck Will be
big factor in deciding the contest

A TRIBUTE TO AMERICAN

DR.. Isidor Loewc of Berlin, who was
taken away in his ed year by blood
poisoning, was In many respects the
prototype OF the business man pc"
culiar TO the latest phase OF Indus
trial life In the German empire.
A combination of technical genius
and commercial alertness is not so
rare In Germany as in countries Of
older industrial development We
find in the generation now gradually
passing away quite n number Of en-
gineers with a remarkable business

other hand men of commercial train.

one of the many children of a teach
