SHALL THIS
PROJECT
Be KILLED?
Prompt Response to Pro
posed German Haus and
Saenger Halle for Ham
mond Is Asked or PROPOSE
tion May Fail.

Unless there is a prompt response
from the public spirited citizens of
Hammond, the city may lose a worthy
civic project. the proposed German
House and Saenger Hail.
The officials and board OF directors of
the organization are making a Anal
appearI to the members and citizens
who are known to be public spirited. in
me Nope that more of the building
stock will be bought up 50 that the
building may proceed.
The stock already in force is quoted
above par. showing that the finances
have ben well managed.
In making the last appeal the Of
ficials point out that a German House
Is a project of more than passing in
terest to the Hammondite who is not
a member, for the building, as pro-
posed, would give a prestige to the
city as convention center. an ad-
vertising medium such as no other city
in this part of the state possesses be-
cause part of the building scheme in
cludes a hall having a seating ca :
pacity of $500. practically twice as
large as any public hall in the city
now.
Plans Complete.
Last year the board of directors as
signed Architect Mac Turner to pre-
pare plans for building. and bids
were received. from which it appeared
that at least $4,000 would be required
for a suitable building. The society
paid 5000 for set of plans and speci-
flcations and they are classed among
the assets
The society has no debts The par
now in force. They are worth at
least $57 a share. One of the most de-
sirable club house lots in the city on
Muenich court nearly opposite the Ma
sonic temple. 70h feet by $50 is the
property of the organization and this
is valued at not less than $4,000. The
taxes for the current year are paid and
SIS. 900 cash is on hand.
The proposed building is intended to
cover the entire lot, and in addition
to providing an assembly hail. seating
$500 persons, is TO have a number
of club rooms dining halls. gymnas-
ium billiard hall. bowling alleys. bath
rooms wardrobes and kitchen.
The plan is to maintain a first-class
restaurant without saloon, and only
stockholders. members of the Saenger-
| bund- Fide1sa and their families ant
/ friends will be admitted.
There is no question in the mind o
| any one who has given the project any
| study that it will be self-supporting
| and prove to be good investme Mt
once it is started. but to carry out tn.
| above plans 1t would require build
| ing costing at least $4,000.
/ Stock In the organization is nov
| held by men of affairs of every nation
| ality and the board of directors i
| quite confident, that when the situa
| ton is fully understood, that man.
| will double their holdings. while other
| who have ont yet invested will ais

Operations of pickpockets in Chicago
and the region hereabouts-their gen.
eral security against conviction and
prisonment today was found to be the
result of a weirdly conducted syste-
smatized institution. 1t is an institution
which, although unrecognized within
the law and unchartered by the state,
is operated with the cognixance OF a
part of the police and almost entirely
regulated by them.
The Story of One of Them.
Here is the story OF the "pickpocket
institution" in Chicago, as gained from
attorneys and others whose business
has brought them closely in touch with
the situation:
There are a certain number of pick
pockets and petty thieves in Chicago
who are well knownsto the police
particularly the members OF the de-
tective bureau. Each of these crooks
has a regular "hangout." some saloon
or poolroom, and members Of the de-
tective bureau know where to and al
most any of them at any time.
Chicago Not Safe.
These pickpockets, mostly natives OF
Chicago, seldom if ever pull off job
in Chicago. Chicago Is their home and
they know it is not safe. They live
within the law, but they go to some
near by city once or twice week t.
steal enough 10 keep 9otng.
