Indiana Harbor. April 13.-Evidences
of an attempt by burglars to enter
Settlers big store were discovered yes
terday morning when the store was
opened up for the day. A paddock on
a rear door, half filed through. bore
mute testimony to the evil designs of

by some incident which frightened the
thieves away.

there was no clue discovered which

The back door of the store is ex-

1t is thought that the fire started in
a small building adjoining the Gavit
building used for the manufactory OF
gloves and mittens.
A call was sent to the central fire
station and they made record run te

which was blowing the fire had gained

done was to save number of smaller
buildings in the vicinity. including .

Bull DING
OPERATIONS
FLOURISH

Again the pessimists are forced to
back up and admit that there is cause
for optimism in the building situation.
The Monon depot was never included
when THE TIMES received word from
Judge Fields that work would begin at
once.
And since the last review of the
building situation it has been learned
that enough new projects have been
actually started to make it apparent
that the builders mean business.
A. II. Rohrers residence is ready for
the roof, Charles Cleveland's residence
will be under roof next week, Judge
Virgil s. Reiter will begin the construc-
tion of his new residence in a few
weeks. The plans are now being drawn
by Architects Bump & Berry.
Today the buildings are being remov-
ed from the property owned by Mrs
Bertha Servin. on State street, and the
plans for a two-story store and office
building are being completed by Archi-
tect Mac Turner.
The time has come when wooder
shacks in the business district of Ham
mond are not tenable, and the owners
of valuable inside property have begun
to realize that they will have to i'm
prove their property with modern
buildings in order to get the necessar,
income out of the valuation of the
property.
Probably the most activity in build
ing in the business district is on Eas,
State street There are building projects
on East State street aggregating $780,
600. as compared with $4,000 on South
Holman street. This gives something
OF an idea of the race of these two
streets for supremacy as the principa
business street of the city.
