He --i» been in poor health for several years, and his death was not unexpected by his friends. His funeral was held on Sunday and was under the direction of the G. *.B. _____ A poyNTfiUFErpEij was arrested i» ftockford the other day. He has been making quarters and ten cent pieces in that city for the past six months. A large quantity of the bad money and ^outfit" was captured., The fellow was taken to Chicago and held in $1,200 bail. " C, Qmioi,itv has left on our table a fink (4 Scotch Russet Apples, that he has bad in his cellar all winter, that are air most as fresh a$td fine as when picked from the tree. They are smooth and hard. It either shows that Mr. Grimolby knows how to take care of them or he a remarkably good cellar. - THE Elgin Courier says: "A number of Hampshire gentlemen have purchased a cottage and adre of ground at Fox Lake for f TOO, and have formed a fishing club. They are Willis Hathaway, Chas. Lovell, George and John Blazier, Edwin Hall C. H. Backus, Philip Schultz, John Bhenick, Jr., L. H. Haase, Gus. Fraley, Alek Walker and H. H. Ream." V How many there are that are so much * like Bill Nye. He says that he dreads to 4ie, not so much on his own account, but because be wants to b? spared to those Who are so poorly prepared to get along without him. When he iB unwell and fretr til, It is not that he cares a cent about it personally, hut because he is all the time afraid to die and leave the universe in the bands of the Creator.

I JOHN BROWN, who lives three miles east of this village, had two large hogs killed \by lightning on Monday night. IT will pay .vqu to have H.

Th^y advertise for 70,000 pounds. ^ THE Elgin Harp Orchestra, that will furuish music for the 4th of July Party, at the Riverside House, are pronounced by those who have heard them, to be one of the best Orchestras in the Nortl - west. The dancing public are sure to be pleased with the music at the Riverside House on the 4th. As a proof of the growing popularity of the Riverside House, under its new landlord, we understads he has made a contract to lodge and feed one hundred men from Chicago on July 14th. Some German Society holds an Annual meeting here on that day. There is <yie thing , sure they will be well taken care Of at the Riverside. ^JEVERY lover of tine music should go to Riverside Hall on Friday evening. Miss Brill will be assisted by her class, Prof. C. M. Hutchins, ot the Northwestern Conser­ vatory of Mnsic, Chicago, Mi«s Louise Brown, Elocutionist, and others. It is confidently predicted that this will be one of the finest musical entertainments ever given in this section. Be sure to attend. THE Richmond Races last week were favored with good weather, and some fine and close contests was the result. The Judges, however, made some very rank decisions, which brings to mind the old saying, "White man mighty unsar- tin," especially if your brother is inter­ ested. Why is it not just as easy to be a man in judgiug a horse race* as anywhere else. The managers of the Driving Park are entitled to great praise for the man­ ner in which they carried out the pro­ om me. jf WE are in receipt, through Linn H Young, one of the Committee of arrange- ments, an invitation to attend the Ban­ quet given by classes '89 and 'DO ftf the Chicago College of Law, at the Grand Pacific Hotel, Tuesday evening, June 24, Thanks. Sorry we were unable to attend. THOSE who attend the 4th of July Party, at the Parker House, can be as­ sured of good stalls for their hotises, as they are building and will havecompleted by the 4th, a new barn with one hundred stalls which with the old one makes their capacity one hundred and fifty stalls. The new barn is being built on the north side of the old one. THE McHenry County Convention of the W. C. T. U. will be held at Harvard, Thursday and Friday, June 26 and 27, 1890. An elaborate programme has been provided, and talented speakers will address the convention. An elocutionary contest for the Demorest gold medal will take place on the evening of the last day, in which eight young people from Harvard, Hebron, Capron, Ridgefie] Marengo and Sandwich will compete. HERE is a great plan for clearing off church debt: In New York a life insur­ ance company has lent $120,000 to a church, and the church has had the lives of a number of its members insured in favor of itself. This life insurance com­ pany has agreed every time one Of its members thus insured dies, to reduce the debt the amodnt of the policy. Every time the church has a funeral it lops off a slice of debt; in other words, members and debts disappear together. PHOTOGRAPHS that were acceptable in the past are now discarded as unsatisfac­ tory. The people have raised an ideal-- a true one, and realizing the importance of getting the best, will go a long dis­ tance to get faithful aud pleasiug pic-, tures. This explains why people living many miles north of Mcllenry, and from other points equally remote, bring their work to L. E. Bennett, in McHeury. They know that his work will compare with the best made anywhere. They also lyiow that uniformity of result is his chief pride, and that good work to every­ body is the rule under which he conducts his business. i v the Elgin Indepemleat we find the following: ^ Chas. F. Johnson, who for about three years has been one of the most popu lar clerks in the employ of C. J Schultz is soon to leave for McHenry, 111., wber he haw accepted a more responsibla poei tion with Messers John Evanson & Co We have known Mr. Johnson quite inti mately for sometime aud while we very much regret his leaving us, congratulate him upon his promotion to a tnore lucra­ tive position. Charlie is a good fellow to tie to and we wish him and his estimable young wife tots of happiness in their new home. Johnson is well and favorably known here, having once before been in the em ploy of Evanson & Co. He is a young man of excellent business qualifications, and his many friends here will heartily welcome him back to McHenry. HUGH STEVENSON was drowned in Fox Lake on Saturday morning last. The particulars as we learn them are as fol lows: He was at work for the Fox Lake Club, and had rowed out in the lake to dump some rubbish. White doing this bis boat sunk, and although he was con sidered a good swimmer, he seemed to have lost all control of himself and sank to the bottom. He was a single man about 25 years, sober and industrious, and highly respected by all who knew him. He leaves a father, mother, sisters and brothers to mourn his sudden end His funeral was held on Sunday from the Catholic Church, in this village, and ^ras attended by a largo concourse of 'sympa No paper can be published without home patronage, and every man is inter- rested in keeping up a home paper. If a railroad or factory is wanted the news­ papers are expected to work for it. If a public meeting is wanted for any pur­ pose the newspaper is called upon for a free notice. If any of the societies have a reception of any kind the newspaper is expected to give the necessary notice. The newspaper must puff the schools and every thing else to advance the interests of the business men of the plape, and then give them a handsotpe notice when they pass away- And yet some of them dp nothing to keep up a home paper.--Ex, THE minstrel show at Burton's Opera House on Friday evening, 27th inst., has been brought from Chicago by Prof. J. C. Cameron for two performances, one here and one at McHenry, at a cost of $325. That the company is first class in every respect there is not the shadow of a doubt. Their last engagements, and the one which terminated their season, was the Gillis Opera House, Kansas City, M«L The majority of theatres are clos- inguV the summer and that throws per­ formers out of engagements. Prof. Cam­ eron says he could not touch the com- panjs^with a four-tined fork in the winter. --Richmond Gazette. BINPERS ANI) ROWERS.

Warden Buck has also recently had arrested for seining. Winthrop Searles, Jas. Howard, Fred Somerfield, Chas. Angroms, Edson Heren don, Chas. Grover, Fred Koch, John Grover and Win, Ulcines, who were tried at Barriugton, and each fined $10 and costs. This is right.

IEMEMBER the genuine Georgia Minv strels are coming and will be at Parker House Hall, on Thursday (tft-morrow) eveniug. Harry Eaton, Billy Eagan, Harry Williams, and Al Johnson, the four corner men, are too well known to necessitate description. The entire com­ pany has been selected from the best per­ formers in the country.

Bear in mind this company have been secured at a heavy expense and will positively be here for one night only and those who fail to at­ tend will miss a rich treat. H. SIMPSON & Co., the Kenosha, Wis. Lightning Rod men, are doing a good business in this section, and as they have proved themselves to be square dealing, and their rod one of the best manufac­ tured, the people have confidence in them and thus both are benefited. In another column it will be seen they offer $100 Reward for convincing proof of any build­ ing being struck and damaged by light­ ning, with their Copper Rods on it. They mean business in this matter and will do just what they say. And it is a notice­ able fact that buildings that have been struck in this county contained no rods, namely Austin's, near Richmond, Wm Coates', near Ringwood, and W. E. Colby's, near this village. We understand they are doing a large amount of roding at Water's Stock Farm, and also in Hebron, Richmond and McHenry. As we have before said, they are honest, square dealing men, and our readers need not be afraid but that they will do a good job and at a reasonable price., Read their advertisement.

I, DON'T FORGET That the Crown, Red White and Blue ttiui. ; fQljl at: V MARENGO, Ijl., June 28d, 1890. ; EMTOR PLAIN-DEALER AS I can ob­ tain no space in the Democrat for a few explanatory lines will you please indulge me a little, just once, to try and answer a calumnious slur hurled at me last week by the editor of that sheet for simply asking him in a gentlemanly and courte­ ous manner to please stop my paper, won't intrude on your columns to insert my letter written to him, but will confine •wyself to a refutation of the riff-raff ribald comments that it brought forth, chief of which that I was in his debt to the tune of $16.50 for subscription and other things; Now the facts are, Mr. Editor, that if they would give me an honest, square count and show a decent hand, they are in my debt to-day over $100. When the Democrat first started in 1876 or '77, Mel Dufleld, the then senior editor, and the brainiest editor it ever had, came to me and wanted should correspond for them. He said that it I would he "would pay me well for it. I did so for five or six years, how well and regularly the reading public well know. Frequently I would ask them for a little pay, but they always plead pov­ erty and -put me off until some future time. After a while this becameold and I quit,at the same time tellingtliem and oth­ ers very plainly that I couldn't work any longer for nothing. Of course the paper has come to me and I have taken it from tbe office supposing it to be in part payment for my services. And the "other things" are this and this only: During the summer of 1887, they printed for me some letter-heads and envelopes amount­ ing to $7, for which I have paid them $5 in cash, and have unpaid costs on my docket against them of $7,60. So much for that. But the real cause of all their venom is simply this--they are mad at every Democrat that deserts them (and they are very numerous) for not falling in with their bough ten views on tbe leg­ islative question. A large number of Democrats hereabouts believe he has been bought to support Donnelly. Why! John A. Dufleld, editor of the Democrat, told me with his own lips about two weeks before the primaries in this county that he had an offer in cash from Don­ nelly of $600. I believe it was for the Democrat's support. Now, then, as soon as there is a row in the convention and alter Mr. Murch is' declared the regular nominee, and a rump gang convention fries to foist, another man on the people, out becomes with his Democrat for Don­ nelly. What's the inference? What is it reasonable to suppose? He didn't take that $600! 0, no, not much! respectfully, V ,*#5 AMOS BOYWOTON. ALGONQUIN.
