Repaved; County Com
missioners Make Decision.

Sheffield avenue is finally. after two
years of litigation, to be improved from

This was made possible a result of
compromise which was reached yester-

1t will be remembered that the coun-
ty commissioners attempted to force the
street railway company to pave the

length of the road.
The street railway company, through
it's attorneys. Crumpacker, Crumpacker

John c. Becker. the receiver OF the
Hammond Athletic association, said to-
day that he had talked with a number
of the officers and members of the Or
ganization with the idea of determining
whether not it would be advisable
to attempt a reorganization of the
associa tion and they have all indicated
that they thought such a course would
be useless.
Accordingly he has made arrangements
TO advertise for sale the equipment OF
the club and at the end of a two weeks
period it will probably be disposed of
| TO the highest bidder
This will mark the closing of the
! final chapter in the affairs of an organ

association are not very great and that
very little will be realized from them

really not the property of the club and

Now to Receive Police
Attention.

Since the IL O'Clock poolroom or
dinanc went into effect several weeks
ago the poolroom and billiard hall
owners have been abiding with the
ordinance and are satisfied with it in
every particular.
The police department which drew
up the ordinance to keep the young lads
out of the poolrooms has noticed that
fewer young men are seen on the
streets after 12-o'clock as heretofore.
THE reason why / wanted this or
dinance to go into effect was for the
fact that / wanted the young boys off
the streets" said Chief Austgen this
morning Before it went into effect
why any number of boys could be seen
lettering around the streets after 2
o'clock and if we chased them from the
street corners they would go into the
poolrooms Now they have no place
