Other Now- Wuukegan Harbor Get: $16,000 The sum of $805,300 is to be ex- pended this year by the government r,,,,, on river and harbor projects in the vicinity of Chicago. The appropria- tion, already passed by the senate. was approved Monday by Congress. The Waukegan harbor gets a $16,000‘ slice, the bulk going to Chicago. ' The original appropriation for the Waukegan harbor was $20,000. but this was pared down one-fifth as were many other appropriations. A large part of the appropriation will be ex- pended in conducting the annual dredging work which is expected to start very shortly. The presence of so much ice in the harbor this spring has made it difii- cult to take soundings but the be- lief prevails that the condition of the harbor. especially the entrance. is no better than usual in the spring. It is believed that a channel, perhaps 17 feet deep. extends into the harbor near the south pier, but that the rest of the harbor has dangerous sand- bars. The harbor should be from 18 to '20 feet deep for absolute safety of large vessels.â€"-Waukegan Sun. largo Milk l‘rod ucers Win The milk producers and dealers are again in harmony. The end of the strike which was declared by mem- bers of the Milk Producers’ Associaâ€" tion April 1 came late Monday, April 10, when officials of the Borden Con- densed Milk Company, the last hold- out, agreed to accept the producers' terms of an average price of $1.55 per hundred pounds during the next six months. for a Night on R B. Swift of Libertyville, presi- dent of the Milk Producers’ Assoâ€" ciation, and W. J Kittle, the score. tary, worked until midnight sending out word to members of the associa- tion that they are at liberty to deliver milk to the Borden concern. As a re- sult, the company at once got its nor- mal supplyâ€"Sun. Set Fire to Priest's Home Fire of incendiary origin was dis- covered at the rectory of the Polish Catholic church in Waukegan at 4 o‘clock Monday morning, only the quick action of the fire department preventing damage of serious conse- quences from resulting. It is supposed that some fanaticall wet advocate was the one who set the torch to the debris, for the priest, Father Zajowski, had been extremely active during the recent campaign to rid the township“ saloons. The rectory, Which is located at 123?. Lincoln street, was the object of an attack by an infuriated mob of saloon patrona immediately following news of the voting out of saloons, and only by barricading the doors and calling for the assistance of the authorities was danger of personal injury from the violence of the: crowd averted.â€"-Waukegan Gazette. Orpet Caae May 15th The trial of Will Orpet will begin upon the 15th day of May in Waukegan. Arrange Judge Charles H. Donnelly an- nounced this as the date for the com- mencement of activties, rendering his decision Monday Afternoon after the defense had entered a motion for con- tinuance. Cause for the delay was not en- tirely due to the reasons set forth in the motion for continunnce and aflidnvits filed by the defense but the hulth of the presiding judge hnd much to do with the granting of the continuance. The quarantine in force at the [7. S. Naval Training Station wns lifted Thursday evening and as a conâ€" sequence the “rookies" are once more happy. All traces of the scarlet fever have been stumped out and starting Friday the school resumed its regular routine.

Let us see to it that the Health Ordinances published in these columns on March 23rd are enforced or let us drop them. This ordinance declares that to so negligently con- duct any lvusiness or use any prem- ises in such a manner as to create an ofl'ensive‘smell or taint the air and render it unwholesome to others The enforcement of the above or-‘1 dinunce in full will be the greatest factox in the riddance of flies, a‘ imenucu to health, and mosquitoes, a ‘torment and danger to most people; Saturday, April 15th, last clean upl call under the direction of the Civic! lCummission.

I The latest news of the Boy Scout‘ {movement is that Highland Park LPatrol, Troop No. 1, Boy Scouts ofi iAmerica. has lately been formed: jMembers of two patrols have taken the Scout oath and those of the third‘ lpatrol will qualify at the next meet- ing of the troop. The patrols meet: for drill once a week in the auditor-E ium of the Elm Place School. Messrs: Egbert Spencer and Junior Chan-l dler are scout masters. Each patrol' has eight members and three patrols are necessary to form a troop. On Tuesday evening of last week the ;members of two of the patrols were; given the scout oath with due for- mality, and Mayor Hastings and City Attorney Holmes were present as sponsors for the troop. Both of these gentlemen addressed the troop infor- mally. The boys have had two Satâ€" urday afternoon hikes under the di- , rection of Scout Master Chandler They are showing much enthusiasm in the work. Norman Clark is leader _.of the one patrol and Otho Morgan .' of the second. John McBride ' is ' scout scribe for the troop. Clifford ' Ferguson is acting leader for the third patroh. A group of boys under Mr. O. A. Iconard is also mastering Pntroll Meet Each Week in Auditorium of Elm Plnco School a Vinita] which will probabi'y be the beginning of Troop No. 2. Central Park to be Scene of Good Causes Every Sunday and All Holidays During Season The fans of Highland Park are going to have an opportunity this year of seeing how the young men of the town can perform in the great national game. At a meeting held several days ago it was decided to organize a Highland Park baseball team to be composed entirely of local players. Many persons have com- plained heretofore that the teams which have represented Highland Park were not composed of local players. To remedy this condition the management of the new team is now engaged in signing up all the promising local players for the eead son. Central Park has been leased {or the coming year and it. is planned Ito have games with the piek'of the Chicago semi-pro‘s and prairie league teams on Sundays end holidays dur- ing the year. This is an enterprise which deserves the loyal support" of all Highland Park and The Press be- lieves that it is voicing the sentiment of the fans of Highland Park vhen it says “Go to it, boys, We’re with you."
