Jack Walker Will Head Del

Much to the delight of Cub baseball
fans of Hammond they are to have two
real Cubs to admire. Jack Walker is
expected to arrived in Hammond to-
day and to bring home with him two
cub bears which he secured in Michi-

Mr. and Mrs. walker have been in
Michigan for nearly two weeks, visit
ing relatives and enjoying outings
there along the summer resorts They
spent Monday in trout fishing near
Tomsonvflle, and left for home last
night, via Ludington and Milwaukee.
In the few brief messages that Mr..
Walker has sent his friends he did not
explain how he came into possession
of the cub bears, but he did promise
some of his friends here that he would

the leading headquarters in Hammond
for baseball fans, most of whom are

in keeping that the place should have
two live cubs.

The association went on record as
being opposed to the methods that the
board of public works took when, in
answer to a petition for sidewalks
from Holman street to the Pennsyl-
vania tracks, on Huehn avenue the
board acted on the petition only from
Holman street to Cameron street

That the North Side Improvement as
ISOLATION has eyes and feeling beyond
its own immediate precincts was dem
onstrated last night when the asso-
citation went on record in favor of high
er salaries for the Hammond fire de-
partment and police department mem
bers. Under the present cities and
towns law the association went the
limit when it gave it's moral support
to higher salaries, and while the asso-
citation knew this at the time 1t was
thought best to go on record at this
time to show that this association for
one is in favor of a change of the law.
It was pointed out in the meeting last
night that the officials in the sur
rounding cities all fare better than
their brethren in Hammond. In Whit
ing, for instance. the police get SIS
a month and in addition, the city buys
their boots and some of the other wear
ing apparel. In Gary the police get
$40 a month and East Chicago almost
any policeman can make 500 a month.

HAMMOND GETS
1T IN THE NEC-z
CONTINUED from Page l.,


Saroka, of Whiting, desiring to go into
voluntary BANKRUPTCY, applied to Re-
fierce John o. Bowers of Hammond
Mr. Bowers was compelled to write
to Judge Anderson to know where the
case would have TO be sent. He was
then informed that all of the cases in
a certain prescribed territory would
have to go to Frankfort
TOO GOOD FOR HAMMOND.
Judge Anderson has never ingratiated
himself in the acections of the mem
bers of the Lake County bar They
have always felt that he thought him
self a little too good to come to Ham
mond.
While here he would hurry through
his work as though every hour he
spent in Hammond was a torture and
would then hurry to Chicago where
he would get dinner. 1t is common
talk among the attorneys here that
they would rather file their cases in
Indianapolis than to take chances with
Anderson here.
THE LAST STRAW.
Time and again he has given Ham
mond sights that have been keenly
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1910-05-10

felt by even the attorneys who are not
known as being representative. The
last straw is the order that nine-tenths
of the bankruptcy business must go to
where one-tenth of it originates just
because Judge Anderson wills that 1t
should.
1t is understood that the Lake County
Bar Association will take up the mat
ter and will send their humble petition
to Judge Anderson praying that a
referee in bankruptcy be restored to
Hammond.
If he fails to act they say that only
providence will make it possible for
Hammond to secure just treatment at
the hands of the federal judge In view
Of the fact that he is appointed for life

Van Horne's friends make similar

they claim to have the Hammond. East

The delegates are gathered about the
hotel Hobbies and are being onstantly
interviewed by friends of the various
candidates. 1t is understood that Fl. E.

votes as he can. It is possible that he
will throw what strength he is able to

C|TY'S CIGAR MANDATORY
IS RAPIDLY GROWING IN SIZE

That Hammond has almost within
the heart of it's business district a
factory, employing twenty-five seople
at union wages, that this factory is
prospecting with prospects of growing
bigger and adding to Hammond's fame
Is fact which the people of Hammond
are beginning to appreciate.
The industry is the Lavender cigar
factory. in the Huchn block, owned by
Ed. Simon, and an inspection of the
place shows an activity which would
not be suspected from the quiet man
ner in which I'd S-mcn conducts the
business
The Decent Lavender recognized
wherever it is sold. as q smoke unsur-
passed for quality is the principal prod
uct of the factory. The Simonette, an
extraordinary good scent cigar named
after the maker, is also manufactured
here, but the popularity of the Laven-
dor puts the manufacture OF the Simon
cite in the second place.
Mr.. Simon finds marke for his goods
wherever he. introduces them. Despite
the strong trust and big factory com
petition Mr.. simon has successfully in
vaded Chicago, and his two for quar-
ter La Vendor finds a ready market
there. He is now nearly $4,000 cigars
in arrears on his orders and more or
ders are coming in daily
The capacity of the factory now is
nearly 5000 Decent cigars daily.
Lavender the Seller.
When Mr.. Simon five years ago de-
cided TO put the Lavender on the mar
ket it was seemingly by intuition that
he named it the Lavender. This is the
French word for 'the seller" and 9TH
er cigar men questioned the propriety
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1910-05-10

of using that name. MIR. Simon can
vassed the registry office in Washing
ton and found that nearly all the
catchy names which appealed to him
had been copyri GIFTED. It seemed pre-
posterous that any one should attempt
to use the Lavender name and it
would have been the height of conceft
if not backed up by the goods. Mr..
simon ventured it and started out to
put a cigar on the market which should
sell for it's quality, TO matter by whom
it would be handled He produced a
high grade product, and if he were
to follow the practice of some factories
who could put an inferior cigar on the
market on the strength of the orig
inars fame. His sense of honor and
business foresight would not permit
him to do this and the result is as good
as Lavender today as FIVE years ago.
Cigar Is Hand Made.
The Lavender is known in a big ter
ritory. Lake county is completely COW
cred and also the adjoining counties
and to some extent Chicago. AS the
prestige of the Lavender grew. it came
into strong competition with other ci-
gars, but the former always had the
advantage because of its reliability
me cigar has the additional advan-
tage which counts much with some
smokers that the cigar is hand-m made
from start to finish, instead of machine
mede
Hereafter. when the industries of
Hammond are enumerated, a place
must be given the Lavender cigar fac
tory, especially since it is distinctly a
Hammond concern, which has grown up
without any bonus or backing and
boosting from the Commercial club.

ton company, backed by c. w. Hotch-
kiss. The latter company has fran
chfse, the time for which expires on the
18th of this month. 1t is expected that
the company will ask for an extern
sion of time. Just what action the
council will take on this matter seemed
problematical this noon.
AS far as the board of public works
is concerned the Indiana Northwestern
Traction company's franchise was
ready this noon to go before the coun-
ell this evening.
