Caaaai Farmer la Continued Until Sept S Anton Wasilouski, tenant on the old Givens farm, now owned by L, D. Lowell of Crystal Lake, and located on *the McHenry-Wauconda road, southeast of this village, was placed under arrest there on Monday of this week by Deputy Sheriff John R. Knox of this village. It seems that the young man in question was up here on Sunday night, where he figured in some sort of a fracus, and as a result of this the McHenry officer made the trip to the farm the following day with the result that a still was found and the tenant placed under arredt. Upon being taken to Woodstock that day, we are informed, he plead guilty to a charge of making and distributing booze. The hearing took place before Judge Barnes in the county court. He was released in a $600 bond and instructed to return to Woodstock on Wednesday to receive his sentence. The young man appeared at the county court as instructed, but his case has been continued until next Tuesday, Sept 6. This, we are told, was done in order to give county officials more time in which to investigate the case. According to Atty.^L.s' D. Lawrell, owner of the farm, young Wasilouski is a hard working, conscientious young fellow and his arrest on Monday ^ame as a big surprise to him.
