WHY HAMMOND PROPERTY rs A GOOD
INVESTMENT

1. The brightest and keenest men in the United
States have invested millions upon millions in Hammond
industries. They believe in Hammond and West Ham
mond and have put their money and brains behind the
greatness and wonderful future of Hammond and
West Hammond
? Hammond and West Hammond have more real in
dustries and brains behind them than any other town
the CALUMET district and vet property is now only
about half the price IL Hammond and West Hammond of
what is in the other the Calumet district and
hence the values are bound to double
3. Hammond Is going through the first stages of
boom that make real estate fortunes in the
few months Hammond is under-subdivided. All
lots in we'll located properties will soon be picked up
4. Hammond is the home of munition workers en-
poved at the Standard Steel Car Co. where HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLAR Government order has been placed.
Hammond is the choice place of residence for officers
heads of departments and foremen of East Chicago in
dustries
s. Hammond more nearly in the center of the Calu-
met region noted the world for its manufactures
than any other city 1t has 10000 people within five

6. Hammond has never had real boom and hence real
estate values not inflated 1t Is reasonable to expect
that there will be hundred percent increase in all fairly
priced and reasonably we'll located property in about

Former Country Sends an Apology
and Affair Is Settled Satisfactor-
lily

Difficulties between Peru and Chile
which resulted Monday in recall OF
the consular representatives by each
nation from the principal cities OF it's
neighbor, have been overcome by an
apology on the part of Peru, c. G.
Ruiz, consul general of Chile, has an
nounced at New York.
A cablegram informing him Of the
Peruvian apology was received last
night by Mr.. Ruiz, from the Chilean
minister of foreign affairs.
The message, the consul asserted,
authorized him to announce that the
Peruvian officials admitted that in
making public reports of outbreaks
against their citizens in Iquique and
Antofagasta, Chile, they had acted on
misinformation.
The apology sent from lima, Mr..
Ruiz added, was wholly satisfactory.

with the conviction the two young fei-
lows who robbed the Settergren hard-
ware store here and visited the home
of William Rehr in the country. took
a train at North Freedom and are
still going. A telephone message from
North Freedom says about the time
the boys visited the Rehr farm they
met Howard Ahrensmeyer and ne no
ticed they had new guns, knives and
other property from hardware store.
Our North Freedom informant says
when they entered the Rehr home they
feasted on a goose which had been
cooked and was ready to be eaten.
Some days ago Chief Of Police .. A.
Pelton received a message from Wau-
kesha that Clark Dwinnell and anotn-
er lad had escaped from the state IN
stitution. The local officers are IN
clined to think one of the youths IS
from Baraboo.
Officer j. e. Buckley is also looking
for the lads. At the time of the rob-
berry he noticed a person in the alley
back of the Settergren store and made
for the city hall for his flashlignt and
revolver, the story goes. When ne

BURGLARS TRY
NORTH FREEDOM
New Knife Found on Floor of Sta
ton and Believed to Be From
Settergren Store

On Monday night burglars attempt
ed to gain admittance to the ticket
Office at North Freedom, but failed.
The glass near the catch which locks
the ticket window was broken, but
the intruders were evidently fright
ened away before they had time to
reach the valuables. The waiting
room door is left unlocked for the ac-
commodation of passengers, and from
this room the attempt was made. The
station agent is not there at night.
In the morning a new knife was
found on the floor, and it is supposed
to be one taken from the Settergren
store on Saturday night. The visitors
at the station are believed to be the
ones who visited the Rehr farm and
deyoured goose.

Mrs. Elizabeth Seal Blakely OF Oak
Park, ILL.,, for years a resident OF Bar
aboo. She is the daughter OF the
late Hon. w. S. Grubb and cousin
on H. K. Page of this city:
THANKSGIVING
We are thankful for our soldiers
And their brave deeds over there;
We are thankful For our blessings
And the peace which fills the air.
We are thankful war-bruised children
Soon will learn to laugh and play;
We are thankful, from our plenty,
To divide without delay.
We are thankful tortured women
Are now freed from siavery's pain;
We are thankful that our heroes
Did not give their lives in vain.
We are thankful for our country,
Always just in welding power;
Though Thanksgiving Days appointed
We are thankful every hour.
