SUGGEST USES FOR IT.

Since THE TIMES printed it's story
about breeze" the coke dust for which
the United States Steel company has
not yet found market. there have been
several suggestions made as to the
uses to which ii could be put.
Allan S. Graham. the manager of the
gas department of the Northern Indiana
Gas and Electric company suggests
that it be mixed with pitch and bril-
quoted. 1t could then be burned in
stoves and furnaces for fuel.
Purchasing Agent MCGOWAN of the
United States Metals Refining COMPANY
states that he knows of several COM
mercial uses to which breeze could be
put. A number of other chemists have
expressed considerable interest in the
problem of disposng of $4,000 to 1900
tons of coke dust breeze" every
month

HAMMOND
A. A. TO HAVE
ANOTHER STAG

A large II. A. A. stag committee
meets tomorrow night, March 16, at w
J. McAleer's office
Plans are now started to put on an
other large stag in about two weeks
which will Guido all the other previous
entertainments.
The II. A. A. boys at the last stag
were not given the support that they
should have had, and the committee
is now preparing something that the
public cannot afford to miss.
The committee, which meets tomor-
row night, is not one that will lay
down to proposition, but will get busy
and push for it. as, it is said some
of Hammond's Invest business men
are back of this movement
This stag will be held on a Thursday
evening instead OF Saturday evening,
as it seemingly has been a night when
too many other attractions for the pub
lie to attend.

COURTS
ARE BUSY
NOWADAYS
Three Superior Courts Are
in Session First Time in
County's History.

For the first time in the history Of
Lake County three Lake Superior
courts are in session. At Hammond
Judge Virgil s. Reiter is presiding over
court No. l. In the same building
Judge Lawrence Becker for the first
time presided over court No and in
Crown Point Judge Johannes Kopelke
presided over court No. 3.
And the attorneys after recovering
from call day yesterday, when it seem
ed that every one of the sixty members
of the bar present had more cases
coming up during the term than any
five men could attend to. begin to see
that there will be a golden harvest for
them this year on account Of their
ability to get business done.
Judge Becker sat in his first case the
trial of Whitfield VS.. Whitfield. There
were a number of Becker's friends iii
the court room to witness the actual
opening of his court.
Court House Busy.
The court house in Hammond has as
sumed an air of intense activity. The
corridors are filled with witnesses At
torneys fill the court rooms. the library
and the Hobbies. Workingmen are
busy making preparation for the furn-
ishing of court room No. 8. The clerks.
sheriffs and prosecutors orfces each
have their quota of visitors
Everybody seems intent on getting
something done in hurry and there
is probably no buster court house in
the entire state of Indiana. In the
meantime the litigant. who has beer
compelled to wait for several years in
| order to have his case come to trial
may now be expected to get some ac-
| ton for his money.

NEW ORGAN
rs EXPECTED

The new $4,000 pipe organ which NJ.
NJ Towle has donated to the First
Methodist church as a memorial 10 his
late father, is expected to arrive di-
rectly from Louisville some time this
week. probably tomorrow. The organ
loft in the church has already been
remodeled to accommodate the big in
strument, but despite this it is thought
that the erection of II viii ltake al
least two weeks. The organ. which was
was made by Pitcher Brothers of Louis
Vile, was purposely built for the local
church and work on it was begun sew
eral months ago.
The date for the dedicatory services

Attracts Good House.

Madam k attracted a large attend
ance at Towle's opera house last even
ing and proved to be an exceedingly
strong play. Mable Montgomery's emo
tional acting was, of course. the fea-
ture of the play. She is said. by those
who saw Dorothy DonneIly in Chicago
to have played the part of Madam Y as
we'll as her predecessor.
The play is one that holds the at
tention of the audience from the very
start. The eourtroo mscene is the eli
max of the play and is a fitting one
The play itself is clever1y written, but
it deals with such a grew some and
morbid subject that it creates a state
of mind that is anything but pleasant
The play has its lesson, however. and
in spite of the unpleasant situations ii
presents it was well worth seeing.

Superior Court in Crown Point, presid-

amount of it. are confident that the
court records will show more than the
average disposal of cases during the

CAT SHOT is
ED STOLLEY

Ed Stol1ey's feat of shooting a dead
cat is going the rounds among local
nimrods today. The story goes that
Stolley. who was in camp along the
Little lumet river near Hessville this
week. early yesterday morning told his
friends to watch him do some fancy
shooting. He took for his target a
cat which he win the distance, not
knowing that the feline had breathed
days before. Louis Roth probably en-
joyed the joke as much as anyone, be-
cause he set the tempting target for
Stolley.
