Low land along the Calumet river
constituting the river frontage for the
East Side park Is being filed up in
fine shape by the Greak Lakes Dredge
Company with the river bottom that
the company is digging up to lay the
thirty-six inch main under the river
at Columbia avenue.
According to the contract the pipe
is to be laid twenty-six feet below low
water level and to do this considerable
ground will have to be thrown out As
an accommodation to the city the COM
pany is spreading the ground evenly
and dumping all IT can into the low
place. The city officials are delighted
to get this unexpected improvement
which would eventually have been
made and then at a cost of many hun
dred dollars. If the necessary filling
is not hauled by wagon. the river bot
tom will be the only supply, and it has
been suggested to the board of public
works and Mayor Smalley that the
company be permitted to continue with
the work of filling in after the pipe
has been laid.

JOHN NJ BECKMAh
FAv0RS CITY MARKET
Claude Altman of Crown Pit,
Once a Grocer, Says It
Wouldn't Hurt Them.

John NJ. Beckman said today that he
thought q city market in Hammond
would be a greater benefit to Ham
that it would tend TO centralize usi-
ness in Hammond and would make it
the objective point not only for farm
ers for miles around but would bake
1t a desirable place for the working
man to live
1t is his opinion that anything that
will tend to reduce the cost of living
will make the labor market better.
Hammond is now regarded as the best
In his opinion It would be better IL the
cost of living could be reduced by a
city market.
Altman Favors Market.
Claud w. Altman of Crown Point was
in Hammond today after an extensive
old country every city of any size has
it's city market place and that the re-
suit is that people are able to buy di-
rect from the farmer for a much lower
figure than they could buy from the
grocer.
Altman says that at one time he was
in the grocery usiness and that 1T was
his experience that there is little
profit in produce any way and he did
not see why the grocer should oppose
the establishment of city marke,
when 1T would attract business in the
staple lines from the farmers who
bring their produce to the city market

time Saturday night and although
there were some rough places in the
work of the chorus the show promises
to be a great success.
The show carries 2S people and
scenery and costuming are all new
The Lyman Twins are as funny as ever
and have an excellent medium for the
display of their remarkable talents
The Cowboy and the Thief, a typical

Chief Mccormick detailed four plain

Death Was Accidental.

Coroner +. NJ. Shanklin returned an
open verdict in the case of Sam Mar
lowe, the Monon engineer who was
found dead in the pit of the turntable
in the South Hammond yards last week.
In the verdict death is ascTibed to an
accident, but inasmuch as there were
no eyewitnesses the manner of the
accident could not be ascertained. In
his statement of facts Coroner Shank
lin mentions that the body was crush
ed by the revolving turntable. Whether
death was due to the crushing or the
fall could not be determined by the
evidence.
