' The foundation for the nerw home erected on Court street for George J. Schreiner was put in this week. Miss Isabelle Niesen and Albert Barbian are in charge of the music for the refined Wednesday evening futures. Miss Rose Worts returned home last week from the Garfield Park hospital in Chicago, where she recently underwent quite a serious operation. The foundation for the new home to be erected by Jos. W. Rothermel on Riverside drive is in and the carpenter work should be started shortly. Mr. and, Mrs. John J. Miller,, who reside on the West Side, are the proud parents of a baby girl, born to them on Tuesday morning of this week. The Ladies' Aid socipty will meet at the M. E. church parlors on Thursday afternoon of next week, May 19. This is a work meeting and all members are requested to be present. A new cottage on the Quinn property on the river road just below McHenry is just about ready for occupancy. The house has been under construction during the; past few eeks and will, no doubt, find a ready renter. Ground was broken this week on Riverside drive for a new home to be_ ereeted by M. J. Schaefer. The location is just north of the home owned and occupied by John R. Knox. Mr. Schaefer hopes to have the place completed and ready for occupancy before the end of the summer. John A. Stilling has just had a new front put in his vulcanizing shop on Pearl street. New office quarters have also been partitioned off, giving the establishment a more progressive appearance.' The office is now being painted and wired and with its new equipment will meet a long desired want. The Flora peVos8 company played to two very appreciative audiences at the Empire theatre on Monday and Tuesday evenings of this week. The company proved one of the strongest and best that Mr. Rotnour has brought to McHenry in a long time and their return engagement here next Thursday evening should bring out a crowded house. W. L. Howell, the local Exide battery agent, has just installed a rest bench of the very latest design, which brings his equipment on par with most of the stations to be^ound in the larger cities. Mr. Howell's business has seen a steady growth ever since its establishment and has now reached such proportions that he has found it impoj»sible to do the work alone. Robert Green is the assistant.

ELEGANT LINE <5F HOME FURNISHINGS , CONSTANTLY ON HAND JACOB JUSTEN Win Over Woodstock M. E. Boys McHenry completely upset the strong and confident Woodstock bunch in a seven inning game at the park diamond yesterday. The visitors displayed a good brand of base'ball and it took a sixth rally to bring the local boys out the victors. Both teams started of in the beginning pushing several scores across the plate, the visitors getting two in the first, while the local squad brought in four. In the second, after our slabman, Bonslett, had two laid aside, was forced to admit two because of a number of hits, together with an error in the outfield. We came back with three more by Hawley, Barbian and Bonslett. The visiting squad next, by a number of lucky hits, pushed in four more, bringing them in the lead, which they kept until the fifth, when Bonslett completely upset the visitors' dope, as Smith was substituted for Graham, sending the old sphere into the slew for a home run and getting into the lead again by thp close margin of one score, 12-11. Andy next took the slab and passed one, then took them in a 1-2-3 order. In the sixth and seventh the visijtors brought in three more, while our fellows came in with five, ending the game. The local boys are becoming more familiar with the old pill and the game and are fast being whipped into shape few the scrap with the county seat high school boys. McHeiKy. AB.
