elusive insect. The chase once started
generally proves most enticing, and
difficulty is experienced In getting the
devotees to abandon their quest of the
blood-thirsty game long enough to al
low the rest of the household to get
what interrupted sleep they may.
The pest is attributed to the unusual
fall of rain at this season of the year.
At no time since the spring rains be-
gan have the low places been entirely
drained. and pools and swamps breed
he pest. as is well known
But though humankind suffers on
account of the prevailing pest, 1t is
understood that dogs and cats and
other small animals usually the prey
of the festive sand flea are enjoying
season of unusual rest The mois-
ture, which has bred the mosquitoes,
seems to have had a contrary effect
upon sand fieas and the result is that
there is unusual scarcity of this
form of parasite. The ant nuisance
which attained such large proportions
last year is conspicuous by its alb
sence this year, only few house
wives reporting trouble from this
source. The constant rains not only
decreases the number of these pests,
but curtails their activities.

HAMMOND
SUFFERS FROM
MOSQUITOES

Hammond is at the present time
experiencing a pestilence of mosquitoes
the like of which has not been known
since the days when IT was an I'M
drained. pioneer village.
Billions of the voracious pest are
abroad nightly, and the trouble Is they
are not content to remain abroad but
hungrily gain access to the most appar-
ent securely screened residences, feast
ing all night on the blood of unfortu-
mates who seek sleep in vain therein.
Just how they manage to get inside in
such large numbers has not yet been
discovered. but it is believed that they
are OF smaller breed than usual and
make their way more or less through
the spaces between the wires, while
with the opening OF every door they
swarm inside in a carnivorous army.
They perch on the ceilings away out
of reach until bed time. when with one
accord they invade the sleeping rooms,
seeking what they may devour In the
morning anxious mothers scan the
races of their young helpful, fancying
they observe traces of measles on the
youthful physiognomies, for be it
known pest OF measles as well as of
mosquitoes prevails at the present time
In the Twin Cities. The bites are so
close together in many cases that the
chfldrens faces present an unholy ap-
pearance after a night OF conflict with
the tiny pest.
The host of mosquitoes has revived
the old parody on the time honored
ditty about the pleasant days we spent
down on the farm as follows:
The mosquitoes. they were brutes
We all wore tight tin suits,
To prevent them doing US bodily
harm.
but they very nearly planned,
With can-openers in each hand
They almost killed US dead down on
the farm"
The prevalence of the mosquitoes
has created a scarcity in carleton and
mosquito netting in this neck of the
woods, there being a great demand for
| II for use as bed canopies. Most of the
local merchants sold out this conmod- :
fty several times within the past few
DAYS. 1t Is no uncommon sight for
passers by the streets at night to
see within illuminated homes where
the pursuit Of the mosquito is on, staid
business men leaping lightly into the
air armed with swatters, pursuing the

PUBLIC WORKS BOARD
AWAITS THE CONTRACT
East Chicago Now to Be
come a City Beautiful
AS to Lights.

The board OF public works held a
special meeting at which the contract
was let for the installation of the orna-
mental Illuminating system. which is
to make East Chicago and Indiana
Harbor scintillate at night with real
metropolitan brilliancy.
Prof. D. Jarvis OF Hammond was
awarded the contract for the installa-
ton. while the Northern Indiana Gas
and Electric Company will provide the
Juice"
The system will consist of series
of iron posts nifty feet apart, having at
their top cluster of three lights each.
The streets to be benefited are Chicago
avenue from Tod to Magoun. Olcott
from Chicago avenue to 14sth street
Forsyth from 145th to 14sth streets in
from Block to Hemlock and Guthrie
from Michigan avenue to the police
station, in the Harbor
The city obtained much better price
than that originally estimated. the sys-
tenn to be installed for $14s a front
foot instead of s1.75. which was the
lowest estimate given previously. The
system must be installed and in COM
to insure to the contractor his money
for the job this year. The payment
for the work will be included in the
tax levy. If the job is not lnished by
that time the payment will not be
made on this years levy, but will go
over f~- whole year.
The matter OF securing to the Twin
Cities an up-to-date illuminating sys-
tenn has required about two years in
its elimination In the first place an
attempt was made to get it through by
private subscription on the part OF
business men. but a few progress
ives could not be brought to see the
benefits the system would entail. and
refused to sign for the work 1t was
finally necessary for the city to take II
out of the hands of the citizens and
go ahead with the plan regardless of
the DIRECTORS.
The three lights attached to each
post will be kept burning until IL
o'clock every night and at this hour
two of the lights Will be turned of, the
top one remaining lighted
The Introduction of the system will
do away with the necessity of fourteen
arc lights now maintained where the
new system is to be Installed.

display. Several crashed which ac-
companied brilliant flashes simultane-

watching the storm that something
might have been struck in the near vi
cinity. This belief was augmented
when the air was suddenly filled with
sulphurous fumes accompanied by
what seemed to be the pungent odor of
smoke from burning wood. The odors
were traced however to the blast
furnaces. the wind having changed
suddenly. blowing the smells over to-
ward the South Bay and the residences
along Adds avenue.
