He was coming home on bis speeder which he does every night after the last train passes going north, when he was ryn down by a wrecking train, his speeder smashed and himself thrown several feet, cutting his head and arm, tearing his clothes from his body and otherwise bruising him so that he has been "confined to the house ever since. The train was running at the rate of 85 miles au hour and he beard nothing of it until it was almost on him. It is a miracle that he was not killed outright. Base Ball / ON Saturday last a game of Base Ball, !(the first of the season,) was played on fche Driving Park, in this village, between the' Woodstock and McHenry Clubs, which resulted in a Waterloo for the Woodstock Nine, the score standing at the close, McHenry 26, Woodstock 8. The McHenry Club had not even played a practice game this year, and only about one half the regular Nine were present.

These colored artists not only render the best and most difficult selections of solos, duets, trios, quartettes and choruses,but are as familiar in the livelier class of vocalistic renditions and also give the far famed Plantation Melodies in a way not surpassed by any. Their renditions of Operatic selections are equally fine. Many of their plantation melodies and operatic selections with other special singing are give* in costume. This will be the richest kind'of a treat. Care is taken to avoid the appearance of ridicule and buffoonery--making these specialties which are given with scenic effect, refined, chaste and moral.

Kinj/ roell, in the 33d year of hie age. j,he subject of the above notice was a son of Thomas Kimball, of this village^ and was a victim of that dire disease, consumption. He Spent the winter in California in the vain hope that a change of climate might be beneficial, but the disease had too firm a hold, and he came home about four weeks ago and rapidly failed until Friday last when death came as a relief. He was a young man highly respected by all who knew him, and bis friends have the sympathy of the entire community. (THE FOX RIVER Valley Medical associa- ti^met in semi-annual sessipn Monday a<t the insane asylum, on invitation ol Supt. Brooks. There were fifty-two per­ sons, including several ladies, present. The banquet was held in the lower dining room. Dr. Brooks acted astoastmaster. Responses to toasts were to be given by J. K. LeBaron, Dr. Burlingame, Dr. Nason, Dr. Cook, Rev. Geo. B. Vosburgh, Dr. Cleyeland and Dr. Chas. B. Brown. There were present from McHenry county, Dr. C. H. Fegers, of McHenry; Dr. Cook, of Huntley; Dr. Nason, of Algonquin, and some others whose names have escaped our memory. J DECORATION DAY was observed in this village in an appropriate manner and drew out quite a large crowd, considering the fact that the day was observed in every village near by. Theexerciaes were under direction of McHenry Post, G. A. It., and were held aft Ringwood Cemetery in the forenoort>aiici at Woodland Ceme­ tery in the afternoon. Appropriate re­ marks were made by Rev. Wm. Clark and Prof. Frank L. Carr, and music was furnished by the Ringwood Band. The programme was carried out in full and was very interesting, and all went home feeling better from having participated and helped to observe the day set apart in memory of our soldier dead. ; THERE is a great deal iu talk. JDvt a man talk dull times, and it is infeotious, everybody in the store or shop gets the blues and in'turu talk dull times, and from hustliug around to stir up and take care of what business there is, they all get to sitting down and moping over dull times. If a customer does happen in one of these "dull times" stores or business place, he gets frightened out of buying one half as much as he actually expected to, because everybody looks so blue. He catches the spirit of the store and resolves to hang to his money with a death grip. This bugbear of dull tinles ought to be sat down on.„„_It is doing more to kill business than anything else. Tell a well man he is *ick, keep it up, a.nd you can eventually hound him to death. Business is not all that we" could desire, still we know of a good many firms who shut down on crying "dull times" long ago aud are making money to-day. Temperance Fourth of July Celebration. A meeting was held last Friday even­ ing, at Ringwood, for the purpose of de­ ciding on a place of celebration aud programme. An effort is being made to thoroughly interest all sections of the townships of McHenry, Richmond, He­ bron and Greenwood. The meeting was called to order by Rev. Wm. Clark, of McHenry. The sense and action of the meeting favored Ringwood as the most central point, accessible by railroad, and it being a temperance place more reasons were brought in favor of this place than any other. A. W. Lumley was chosen officer of the day. Vice-presidents,were chosen, whose duty it is to help to interest the people in their several localities, as follows: Mr. Albert Colby, McHenry; Rev. W. H. Smith. Richmond; Mr. Wm. Westerman. Greenwood; Mr. J. E. Cristy, Ringwood; Mr. J. H. Burger, West McHenry, Mr. J. Noble, Keystone. We appeal not only to the officers in charge, but to all who have the cause of y Schools and temperance at heart, to help in making this a success. Program^later, PER ORDER COMMITTER. Broke Jail. On Wednesday evening at about eight o'clock, while Sheriff Ddell and his deputy were away from the jail on business, two of their prisoners broke jail and effected their escape. They were "Jim" Russell, who was in for rape committed at Algon­ quin, and "Mike" Kelehan, in for bur­ glary. \ The manner pf egress was cer­ tainly Unique. First they tore loose a piece of gas pipe about four and a half feet long from the railing, of the upper deck. With this they succeeded in prying off a number of sections of the steel grate of the cage, which apparently snapped off like pine, and this admitted them to the corridor, the door of which is never kept locked, and then their escape was easy. The noise they made in breaking the steel could not have been any more than the racket made by moving the chairson the steel floor, hence the sheriff's wife noticed nothing unusual. The other prisoners--McNally, Archer and Hollister --who could, have easily followed the others, preferred to remain. This railing in the jail is an affair which the county board would do well to investigate, for as long as it is left where it is there will be no possibility of security after this experience.--Seatinel.

A Hit Bird Always Flutters. EDITOR PLAINDKALER:--• By a little notice in the last week's Democrat, signed by R. Brown & Sons, it would seem our communication of two "weeks ago hit somebody. They say, "The article pub­ lished in the PLAIN OKA LEU, <so far as we are concerned, is libel." Now whp said anything about R. Brown & Sons? Their names were certainly not mentioned in our correspondence. Now what we said in our former correspondence is true to the letter, and whoever the coat fits may put it on. And as we said before the half has not been told, and if occasion requires we will read them a lesson that may prove highly interesting.

The exercises 011 Memorial Day at Al­ gonquin ou Saturday last, were of an un­ usually interesting character, and were v e r y l a r g e l y a t t e n d e d b y t h e r e s i d e n t s 6 f this region. At half past one o'clock the procession commenced to move from the church, headed by the baud. ^Then came little girls and boys laden witVfiowers to strew over the graves of the dead. The Sons of Veterans and Grand Army men, and the Modern Woodmen, Algonquin Camp No. turned out in body with their decorations and banners. Then came citizens in carnages aud on foot. The procession was so long that the band i-eached the cemetery befpre the last carriages had left the church. On arriv­ ing at the cemetery the children with their flowers visited the soldiers' graves and left a tribute of sweet (lowers on each. The stand for the Memorial service was placed under some fine oak trees and suitably draped with (lags and bunting. The exercises opened with a fine render­ ing of the Dead March by the band. Then the Rev. Mr. Medbury, of Nunda, offered prayer. Vocal music by a chorus of ladies followed, and was well appreci­ ated by the audience. The President of the Day, Dr. W. A. Nason, then made a short address, exemplifying patriotism, and the duty we owe our country to edu­ cate ourselves and children to cultivate the^entiment of love of country. Rev. Mr. Medbury then made a very gracefully worded and appealing address in which he carried clearly to the minds of his hearers the reasons why. all should be patriots, and all should serve both their country and their country's God. This was followed by very appropriate vocal music by the chorus of ladies. Mr. Frank Spitzer, of Woodstock, then delivered a very fine oration suitable to thepccasion. He rapidly but clearly pictured the causes, which, from the old "'tea party" in Boston preceding the revolution, up through the debates of Webster and Haynes, and in the debates of Lincoln and Douglas, culminated in the war of the rebellion. His oration was eloquent and well delivered, and held the attention of .t he audience to the close. The singing of the national anthem, "America," by the chorus and audience, standing, closed the exercises. Over five hundred persons were present and participated in the Memorial exercises, and made a goodly assemblage under the shade of the trees in our beautiful cemetery. Much credit is due to the various com­ mittees of ladies and gentlemen having the arrangements in charge for the suc­ cess of the day's doings. The marshal of the day, Chas. Wandrack, did his work well, and thebrassband, although hastily Summer hats, ornaments and every- got together, surprised and pleased all thing usually found at a first class mil by its fine and harmonious rendering of linery store can be tound at Mrs. E. W. the music selected. It was a successful Howe's, day and the dead patriots deserved it. /Try our new arrival fine Jap tea.
