Of late the police have received
many complaints from various parts of
the city regarding residents leaving
their cows run at large, destroying
property. lawns and gardens. Accord
ing to the police arrests will be made
IL the owners are not more careful. as
their is ordinance governing this
violation.
In some cases like that of DR.. A.
Stonebreaker. 80 Conkey avenue, resi-
dents are not wholly to blame a. Mr..
Stonebreaker's COW broke loose and
he knew nothing of it until he learned
from the police that the animal had
been placed in a livery barn. When
the cow broke loose it picked out four
choice gardens and after eating its fill,
1t was captured. Residents in the
neighborhood waged war against
MIR. Stonebreaker, who before he was
through. had to dish up $1,000 to set
tie damages

PROVED TO
Be FALSE

The effort that was made by Attor-
ney Joseph Katz and others to COM
promise Mayor K NJ. Woszczynski.
City Clerk Ignatz Mankowsk, and
other we'll known business men of
West Hammond. by attempting to
show that they were tax dodgers. fall
ed utterly.
The affair was given a great deal of
publicity In the Inter-Ocean, which
seems to fall for anti-reform element
dope. but the fiasco that resulted was
overlooked by the paper this morning.
The assessment in very few cases
was raised a few hundred dollars, but
the board of review laughed at Katz
when he attempted to prove his case.
The case which involved Carl Helms
was dropped, although Helms is one of
the largest property owners In Chi
cago. 1t is said that the whole In
crease would not amount to $4,000
score or more of West Hammond
citizens, including Mayor Woszczyn-
ski Clerk Mankowski, Treasurer Rich
ard Zimmerman and others, were
present at the hearing.

APARTMENTS
ARE NEEDED

The purchase of 1.400 acres of land
in the vicinity of Highlands by the
Industrial Center Land company a
more or less well-known quantity, was
the feature of the realty market of
the past week
It indicates that there is still big
things doing in Lake county that were
undreamed of a few months ago. The
sale of small property has not pro-
gressed very fast. although there has
been great deal of inquiry.
Thee demand for good homes in
Hammond both to purchase and to
rent is a demand that will have to be
met soon. Every available place in
the city is rented and there is a very
noticeable demand for weil-e equipped
apartments.
"One man came in and asked for an
apartment that would rent for $685."
said a local real estate man. 1--WE had
nothing for him. We could rent a
building of high grade apartments If
they were built"
