Three commissioned officers are to
be elected and fourteen non-commis-
stoned officers are to be appointed as
soon as the Hammond company of the
Indiana National Guard is fully re-
cruited- 1t is expected that the Ham
mOnd Military association, which is
now in a state OF formation and which
is to become the Hammond company
of the Indiana National Guard, will
have its necessary membership by Fri
day night. A meeting will be held in
the city hall and all those interested
are invited to attend.
While none of those already enroll
ed are making an active canvass to be
elected, captain, first and second lieu
tenant, the three commissioned offices,
is thought that the honors will go
to those who have ahd some military
training and who have beep rime NOV :
ers in the organization of the COM
pany. Thus far the company has more
than dozen members who have had
some military experience. The non
commissioned officers as well as the
commissioned officers are elected by
the company members, the only diff
ference being that the commissioned
officers receive their appointment from
the governor, while the non-commis-
stoned officers are appointed by thu

only Savior there is. and walk deter
mindly on in disobedience that man
can never blame God. How can you
say God damns men to hell when
through the ages He has worked to
save men? He is not willing that any
should perish says the book He tries
to lead you on with promises uncount-
ed, with beauties indescribable, with
logic unanswerable and with evidence
unimpeachable. He appeals to you
with right. He wooes you with love
and pleads with you in pity and patti
ence- When every highest motive has
failed he would brighten you away
from destruction with a warning of
hell. If you could still go on saying
no to God, don't blame the Almighty
Father There were many splendid
points made In this sermon which need
to have been heard to be appreciated.

ONE THOUSAND CONVERTS
At THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH

Last night fourteen more persons
confessed Christ for the first time, a
large number of others were baptized
at the close of the service. There
have been eighty-seven additions to
the church during the last ten days
of revival services which are now
under good Roadway. Mr.. Sharp does
his own preaching during these meet
ings. and is assisted by Mr. and Mrs.
Kendall, singing evangelists, OF CO.
lumbus, Ind. The travelogues are at
tracing large crowds as well as the
preaching. The congregational sing
ing is also great feature of the meet
inss- Last night Mr.. Sharp preached
on What Does 1t Cost to Have a
Home in He'll" He said in part: 1T
costs something to be a Christian and
live for heaven for a reward. but it
costs = thousand times more to serve
the world and the devil and gain hell
for a reward. God never made hell
for men, nor men for hell. Gods whole
purpose is that you may accept and
follow Christ and be saved and any
man who deliberately chooses to re-
fuse or reject the only Christ the Saw
Tor there is. and the only Christ. the

Cap Saves From Injury.

What might have been a serious ac-
cident for Albert Zardent was averted
by the beak of his cap yesterday
morning. Zardent. who drives a de-
livery wagon for the Central grocery
store, was riding a wheel to work and
while riding on Logan street oppo-
site the viaduct near the Michigan Cen
trail depot he rode into a plank which
projected and which had been left from
repairs after the recent wreck on the
Michigan Central.
The shock cut the beak of his cap
in two and tore big cash in his fore
head and rendered him unconscious
He was taken to his home on the north
side and DR.. Fox was called to dress
the wound. Zardent was confined to his
bed this afternoon.

WORK. On
STREETS To
BEGIN SOON

Paving of alleys, the vacation of a
part of one and the opening of anoth-
err will be among the first things to be
considered by the board of public
works as soon as it gets down to the
spring business.
John A. Gavit. the city attorney,
said this morning that he would begin
at once to prepare the necessary reso-
buttons for the opening of the work.
There are now two paved alleys in
the business district. one running from
Holman street to Morton court. be-
tween Plummer avenue and State
street. and the other from Holman
street to Morton court, between State
street and Sibley street.
The plans for the spring work pro-
vide for the pavement OF the alley in
the rear of the Lion store, and the
pavement of the alley east Of Holman
street. from Fayette street to State
street. The contract for the paving of
the Lion store alley was let last fall.
The first alley east of Holman street
is plated to run across all the tracks
north of State street, but as the open
ing of 1t would be useless and merely
provide another death trap. an agree
ment has been entered into between
the city and the railroad company
whereby this part of the alley is to
be vacated for which the city is to
get an alley right east of the Nickel
Plates tracks between State street
and Plummer avenue. In an another
agreement the city secured an alley
right north of the Nickel Plate tracks.
