HAMMOND MOTOR BOAT CLUB
ARRANGES MANY EVENTS

At the regular meeting of the Ham
mond Motor Boat club last night the
dates for the various races were fixed.
The first race for the small boats
will be held on Sunday, Aug. 21st.
About ten boats will be entered and
the race run over the ten-mile course
will begin about $50 The stretch for
the race will be from the clubhouse to
the Michigan Central bridge, near the
Forks, and back again. The race will
last about an hour and when completed
will be followed by the band picnic
near Riverdale The members of the
club and their friends will make the
trip in the motor boats.
Second Race Sept. 18th.
The second race will be held Sept.
18th. This race will be similar to the
first one, with the exception that the
boat will go over a ffteen-mile course.
beginning at the clubhouse and going
as far as Riverdale and return
It was originally planned to hold the
second race on Labor day, but some
of the local members are planning to
enter an open race given by the South
Chicago Motor Boat club on that day.
The third and last race will be held

counter, and two large pantries.
Off from the kitchen is a serving
room, from which the walters max
work without entering the kitchen.
Here they pass through one door leav-
ing used dishes at a counter behind
which is a Jones dishwasher, turn and
pass the serving counter and out to
the dining room by another door. The
library is not yet equipped with books,
though one friend of the church has
agreed to start the library with 500
volumes and a number of smaller con-
tributions have been made. It seems
that nothing remains to be thought of
to make the building plant equipped
to be a beehive of industry, which Rev.
Sharp and his congregation of enthusi-
astic workers are certainly capable of
making it.
To have grown in so short a time
from a congregation of dozen with
the poorest building of any, to the place
and power which this new building rep
resents, is not only in itself a wonder
full work, but is prophecy of what can
and very probably will be accomplished
with such splendid quarters in which to
work
Large numbers of members and
lFIeHuS dSlQe from LHelT cdSn donations
to the building have contributed indiv-
idually parts of the equipment. includ-
ing pulpit. desks, tables, chairs, Bible,
communion set song books, rugs, mir
rors, rocking chairs. books. and scores
of smaller articles of use and conven-
fence.
Sunday from 1890 to $50 o'clock a
large reception committee will be in
| charge. Lunch will be served at the
church to all who attend the morning
service and an orchestra concert given
| in the meantime. Although a slight
| charge will be made for the lunch, it is
| not served for the purpose of revenue
| but to enable those who attend the
morning service to get their lunch
| cheaper and easier than they could get
| it at home, and give them the noon
| hour to inspect and enjoy the building

on Sept 25th. This will be race for
the big boats, of which there are three.
The race will be over a twenty fve-mile
course. beginning at the clubhouse and
going as far as the basin in the river
at South Chicago and return.
Three boats are entered for this race
they being the Fir owned by Z. ].
Miller. and having a speed of approxi-
mately twenty miles an hour; the
Dragon" owned by Harry Moonshow
err, and having asspeed of approximately
eighteen miles an hour, and the
Louise s.. owned by Seestadt Bros,
and having a speed of approximately
eighteen miles hour. While there
is difference of speed possibilities in
the Miller boat against the other two,
yet the experts in the club say that
the chances are even. because of the
fact that the Miller boat is newer
craft and consequently not in such
perfect running order in which one
finds the boats that have been in the
water longer time.
! A silver cup will be offered a
trophy for the. winner of each event
and in the first races there will also be

LARGE FISH STORY TOLD
BY GULLY SWANSON

THE TIMES has been aware for some
time that all candidates for office
whether democratic or republican are
apt to tell stories which their friends
doubt to some extent
The latest comes from Gully" Swan
son of Hobart republican candidate for
county treasurer, who was fishing in
the Calumet river, between Gary and
Hobart. yesterday The story is to the
effect that Swanson caught a catfish
weighing 102 pounds and nearly lost
his life from being pulled into the riv-
er in landing the monster. 1t was with
the greatest difficulty that the catfish
was loaded into a wagon, and Swan
son says the vehicle broke down sever
al times in taking the enormous FISH
home.
Swanson was sitting on the banks of
the river. the story goes. deeply en-
grossel in reading the 18th chapter of
Isaac Walton's The Compleat Angler"
His line was hanging loosely from his
pole which was stuck in the mud by his
side, when suddenly there was a jerk
and swanson, grabbing the pole. sue
ceeding after much effort in tying
the line around the trunk of nearby
tree. The monster catfish had swal-
lowed the whole hook and there was no
chance for him to get away, and he
dashed the water into a foam for sever
al hours until he was tired out
The above story is vouched for by
Albert Bormann of Gary, who, by the
| way, also a candidate for a seat in the
Gary city council OF course, THE TIMES
does not doubt either Swanson's or Bor-
mann's word. and we have those who
are acquainted with them to test the
| creditability of their stories.

LUXURY IN PRISON.

cenv;cts In Switzerland Seem to Enjoy
the Life.
Prison life in Switzerland is luxury
instead of a punishment. The comic
opera jail at Thornburg, where the III
mates did as they pleased, mas only re-
Gently been suppressed by the berne
authorities, yet details are puoiisneo
today of similar institution at oar-
men. in the canton of Oswald.
Sarnen is apparently an ideal penai
resort, for the happy criminals VINO
are sentenced to terms of detention
in that institution have a far better
time than hundreds of free" SWISS
citizens who are forced to earn tnelr
bread.
A correspondent Of Lausanne paper
states that he was passing through
Sarnen when he saw number OF men,
dressed in dark blue clothes with wnlte
stripes, walking about the village
smoking and joking.
Others were seated in a cafe, ana
some were working in leisurely man
ner, carrying bricks for the consruc-
ton of a new building. To his aston
ishment the correspondent found that
the men were convicts from the can
tonal prison close by.
These convicts are permitted to leave
the prison early in the morning ana
find work around Sarnen or walk
about the country until nightfall, When
they return of their own accord to the
prison.
They are unaccompanied by warders,
and there is nothing to prevent their
escaping, but they are far too comfort
able to think of relinquishing their
quarters, for they have as much iber-
ty as other men and are, moreover, fed
and lodged for nothing.
The money earned by those conv1cts
who choose to work can be spent as
they like. One convict, who is en-
ployed as a gardener by local magis-
trate, sends his monthly salary to his
wife and children.
Two or three convicts ESCAPED"
some weeks ago, but they eventually
returned to the prison in a half fam
ished condition, and after being severe
" reprimanded they were allowed to
return to their apartments.
One convict was discharged recently
after the completion of his sentence,
and he remained in Sarnen for the pur-
pose of continuing to earn money as
bricklayer, but his colleagues in pris-
on uniform made things so unpleasant
for him that he begged the governor OF
the prisoner to allow him to resume
his uniform and status as a convict.

to win at least two-thirds of these

Two little girls entered. florists

they that they would have been taken
for twins. They had 20 cents-1O cents
apiece-and with this sum saved from
pennies for some time back they were
going to buy plant for mamma. One
stepped out little In advance OF the
other when the door closed behind
them. The other was shy, looking
timidly. but confidently, at her sister.
The woman in charge of the small
shop looked up as the two mites OF
humanity paused in front OF her.
''Well?" she said eneouragingly.
I'VE want to buy plant" said the
little spokeswoman. Then she added,
in order to avoid later embarrassment,
''The cheapest one you've got"
"Ah," said the florist, going to the
window, here is a nice little plant
for g cents"
4 The little sister turned quickly to
the other. but still smiling bravely.
''Baby, we've just missed 1t nick

Yet not three minutes later they 1s-
sued from the shop bearing the plant
between them, and as the woman de-
posted the two silver dimes IN the
cash drawer her eyes must have
caught their CLEAN. Tor there was
