HAMMOND
PATRONS ARE
: INDIGNANT

The Hammond patrons of the Chicago
newspapers are in an exceedingly bad
humor on account of the inferior char
acter of the sunday papers that are
put on the streets a s o'clock on Sat
urday evening
The Chicago American contained but
little news, and what there was in 1t
was a lot of telegraph stuff from the
Hearst papers on the coast Over half
of the news was from the coast cities
and was of little interest locally.
The Chicago Tribune was purchased
for the purpose of getting detailed ac-
counts of the baseball games. Instead
of having write-ups of all of the games
the Chicago games were all that were
written up. In fact hours before THE
TIMES had given all of the information
about games outside of Chicago that
could be found in the so-called sun
day" papers.
The early editions of the Chicago pa
pers were denounced a fake on all
sides, and il is expected that the sales
of the early editions of the sunday pa
pers will be materially reduced in the
future.

MONSTER STEAMER
STRIKES AN ICEBERG
Wireless Messages Tell of
Disaster and an Ominous
Silence Follows.

New York, April 15.-A wireless
message from the Titanic, largest and
newest of ocean steamers, received
shortly after midnight announced
the liner had struck an iceberg off
the banks of Newfoundland and was
sinking. Transfer of the passengers
to the life boats began at once. The
accident occurred at 1925 O'Clock
last night. Two hours later the
ships wireless apparatus. which had
been working so badly as to permit of
only Intermittent and fragmentary
messages, failed completely.
The last words sent by the opera
tor told that the vessel apparently
was doomed, sinking by the head, F"
and that the woman passengers were
being rushed into the lifeboats. A
reassuring feature was that the
weather was calm and clear and help
only a few hours away.

Mrs. G. ]. Brusen of Garfield avenue

The child and it's mother escaped with

the child sat was demolished. The au-
toists stopped their machine and as
sured Mrs. Brusell and her husband who
was with her that they had sounded
their horn and had tried to avoid her.
The high way prevented the pedestrians
from hearing the horn. and in the gen.
era1 confusion Mrs. Brusell ran in the
wrong direction.
Mr. and Mrs. Brusell and their two
children were on their way to the home

According to the rules of the com

railroad track is to come TO dead stop
and remain so until the conductor who
in the meantime is to run the cross

The down town Holman street cross

and special care is urged upon the con-
ductors by the company. II is an es-

The conductors have all been quite
conscientious about running the Hob

then found himself cut off by the

WORK ON COUNTRY
CLUB IS RUSHED
Golf Links and Tennis
Courts Ready by July
Fourth.

The work on the Hammond Coun-
try club is being rushed. The excava-
tion for the basement has reached a
point where water has been struck and
the necessity for sewers is becoming
more and more apparent
1t is believed. however, that the base
ment excavation can be pumped out to
an extent that will permit of the laying
of the foundations. After the founda-
tions are in 1t is expected that the
building will rise rapidly.
An effort is to be made to get the
golf links and tennis courts into con-
dition that they can be used by the
Fourth of July. Last Sunday there were
a number of Hammond people who took
advantage of the fine weather to go
over the grounds of the country club TO
inspect them and the progress of the
work.

Lowell. Ind. April 15.-E. 4. Wood
cock, editor of the Souvenir, made a
trip to Hammond. East Chicago, Indi-
ana Harbor. Gary and Chicago Satur-
day. The development and progress
that is going on in the northern part
of Lake county is amazing and beggars
description. Where one city begins
and ends Is hard for a stranger to de-
termine. so closely Joined are the sew
eral cities. So far the progress and
building up of the north part of Lake
county is concerned, 1t is only in its
infancy. 1t bids fair to be the great
est industrial and waterway locality
in the United States and will probably
one day be one great city under one
municipal head. 1t Is great section
for one to invest money with the
chance of reaping a profit.
