says McGraw, ito get up and say that
a firstyear man is the steadiest ball
player in big league which embraces
200 players. But in the case of Burns
don't believe there can be any great
argument. To begin with, he is out
there every day in good shape to play
his best. He is also one of the surest.
steadiest outfielders ever saw. He is
deadly on fly balls, perfect in Judging
them and sure in his catch In addi-
tion to this, he plays ground balls like
an infielder and has a fine arm.

II consider Burns" said McGraw,
"one of the most remarkable young
sters of the game. You see many of
them break in like Cobb or Jackson
or Speaker who are naturally brilliant
performers. But how often do you see
first-year man, young recruit, step
out as the last words in steadiness? :?
Not very. This goes for him mentally
as well as physically for his judg
ment is always good and in the proper
direction. When you consider the fact
that here in first-year man we have
fast, sure outfielder who is also
good on ground balls and who is there
with a fine arm. who is consistent
hitter and fine base runner and who
can be depended upon in everv de-

army prepared for the more deadly
charge of the infantry, which it felt

The Federals had not long to wait.

The distance to the Federal lines
was a mile. For half that distance
the Confederate troops marched gaiIy,

burst of Federal cannon. and great
gaps were torn in the Confederate
ranks. Despite Confederate losses, the
brave southerners marched on. When
they came within mustket range Han
cocks infantry opened terrific fire
but still the attacking force pressed

was almost irresistible. They pressed

the Confederate loss both in officers
and men was frightful. Pickett soon
saw that he had entered a death trap.
Federal troops from all directions
rushed in upon him. The lighting was
hand to-hand and dubbed muskets and
bayonets were the weapons of war

masses. Soon it was recognized by
both sides that the Confederates had
been beaten.

of the north and the south. were
awakened on the fateful morning of
July 3. 1863. by the roar of artillery

But the most desperate and spec

STATEMENT FROM rRUsTEEs.

SIAIEMENI EhOm TRUSTEES.
To the readers of THE TIMES: That
the stand of Odd Fellows against the
board of public works in the sidewalk
controversy of which the public has
ben rightly informed through the Lake
County TIMES may be officially con-
firmed this communication is made for
publication.
The Columet lodge of Odd Fellows
No. COL has always paid cash for city
improvements and never before object
ed to anything that the city thought
advisabl to do. AL Improvements have
ben paid out right in cash. 1t is ev-
ident that the board believes that the
lodge would stand for anything in or
dring the walk in front of the State
street building ripped up without
notifying the lodge.
Two deliberate falsehoods were made
the other evening. 1t was stated that
the published notice concerning the
three foot extension of East State
street walks contained a clause In
which the city reserved right to re.
place walks found unfit. This was in,
vestigated by Attorney E. @. Sproat ant
found to be untrue.
1t was stated that the lodge wa.
notified by post card of the city's in.
tention to up the old walk. No sucl
communication was received by an,
trustees or officer of the lodge. Thes,
two statements and an inferance tina
the lodge as a body were entering pol
were untrue.
AS the official organ of the admins
tration said, THE city can not max
fish of one and flesh of another" Tha
is just what was done. The walk i
front of the Odd Fellow building wa

appear for the ceremony. The Grand
lodge then marched in and the impress
sive Masonic dedicatorY ceremony was
rendered by Grand Master Hanan and
the past Masters of the East Chicago
lodge supplemented by musical num-
bers ably rendered by a quartet under
the direction of w. J. Funkey. Jr. Mr.
George H. Sommers acted rs accompan-
list.
After the dedicatory ceremony the
grand lodge returned to the temporary
lodge room and the third floor and
closed. Then a splendid program of
speeches and music was given.
The principal speech of the evening
was made by Grand Master Hanan. who
took for his subject "A Friend to Man"
He said that true Mason was a
friend to man: that every Mason recog-
nized the Fatherhood of God and the
Brotherhood of Man; that every Mason
realized the truth of the precept, Il
am my Brothers keeper" That Mason
| ry establishes a bond of social union
| between individuals teaching them
| that they are dependent upon each
other, and that, therefor, the we'll be-
ling and progress of the one means a
similar condition for the other; that
no man is a law upto himself; that
others have rights he no more dares to
invade than one star to transgress the
orbit of another
Among other things he said: The
Bible is on every Masonic altar and it's
teachings underlie the Masonic princi-
pies. Go Into any lodgeroom in the
world and you will find the BOOK-the
rule and Guide to our faith"
! The Grand Master urged that one Of
the duties of the Mason is to. in the
most kindly manner, warn his brethren
of the dangers which beset him on
every side of his journey through life
and to assist him to avoid not only
every Scylla but every Charybdis in
life. That Masons should not concen-
trate their minds upon any one specific
danger and lost sight of all other dan
gers though equally great, and while
/ avoiding the one danger along life's
path be swallowed up by others. To
illustrate this statement he drew a
Graphic illustration from the old tradi-
ton which has descended from ancient
mythology in which we told by
Homer that Ulysses. after long years OF
wanderings in attempting to find the
way back to his native ithaca after tbs
Trojan war. came to a narrow strait

sidered old. In buying good laces and
embroideries there is always the ad-
vantage of being able to use them

tations for these.
Most of the linen frocks are of the

material or contrasting fabric.
Standing out prominently among the

cessory laced together afer the manner

able models Although this article
deals principally with linen dresses.

plicated in silk, satin or any of the
more expensive materials of the sea-

inexpensive il one desire il so to be.
| On the other hand, it is easy to pay
as high as 50 yard for some of the

BY MAUDE HALL.

New York, July This is the sea-
son of the tub frocks and never has IL
been exploited with such success. 1t
seems as if seven out of every ten
dresses seen in the shops are of wash
materials. and the fabrics which are
given first place on the counters are
of the tub variety.
Most of the summer dresses are
made on the one-piece model, and they
are extremely graceful. Simplicity
rules in the design and development Of
these dresses, but one is allowed al
most any liberty in the matter of dress
these days.
Because they are made in one piece
is no reason why the new summer
frooks should not lend themselves all
of the new skirt and waist arrange
ments. For the linen dress. however.
the two-tier skirt is the most popular
effect, and sometimes this is gaintd
by adding to the length of the blouse
by means of adding peplum to the
belt, than by really building the skirt
in two parts.
Evening frocks made of sheer hand
kerchief linen are swarthed In ex-
| quisite laces and weighted with en-
broideries. There is vogue for ruff
fed effects which amounts to almost a
/ craze. Sometimes two are employed
| instead of one. but the best is that

it from blowing" and as the idea is
/ to have IL follow the lines of the fig
ure without fiatting the ensemble. tn,

one finds their counterparts in ex
quisitely printed linen lawns, organ
dies and batistes. Unless one has al
almost unlimited income it is reall,
unwise to spend much on clothes, 70

He insisted that every Mason, like
Achilles, had vulnerable spot and
that it is not becoming for one Mason
to unduly condemn another for that
one weakness but to aid and assist the
brother in his reformation and at the
same time look we'll to his own weak
ness and attempt TO remedy the one
or many himself.
Toward the close of his splendid adj

attention by the assembled brethren. he

of enterprise and industry manifested
by the Masons of East Chicago In
