Stephen Reynolds, who has been in charge of the Bishop mill for three years, is entering upon a new lease. Mr. Reynolds has been in the milling business for thirty years, having learned his trade when a young man. He was apprenticed to milling and engineering and is a thoroughly practical miller and engineer, having made flour from the old stone process up to the modern roller mills. Mr. Reynolds came to America in May 1890. Previous to coming to Mc­ Henry he was a resident of Wauconda and for about five years operated the flour mill owned by J. Spencer. He came to McHenry in the fall of 1896 and has successfully operated the Bishop mill since then. During this time he has made many improvements in the mill and still more are contemplated. Last month the Bishop estate added a new gasoline engine as an auxilliary to the water power and an addition has been built to the mill for an engine room. Several alterations will be made in the near future that will facilitate the grinding capacity of the mill in its different departments of custom and merchant grinding, all grinding being done at the same time, so that those coming with rye or buckwheat can have it ground at $ny time on any day. of the week. • Fox Lake Yacht Club Electa Oncers.

When desiring the him a call VICE-PRESIDENT IS DEAD SUCCUMB8 TO LONG ILLNESS AT 8:30 TUESDAY MORNING. The Funeral will Take Place on Saturday Afternoon at Patterson, N. J.--President ami Kittlre Cabinet will Attend Funeral. Vice-President Hobart died at Patter­ son, N. J., at 8:30 last Tuesday morn­ ing. At midnight he became unconscious and early in the morning he had an at­ tack of angina pretoris, from which he never rallied. Mrs. Hobart, Dr. Newton, Mrs. New­ ton, who is a tiousin of Mrs. Hobart, and Miss Alice Waddell, the nurse, were at the patient's bedside constantly from the time he became un<5onscious. Garret A. Hobart, Jr., was also at his father's bedside. Mrs. Hobart bears up well under the great bereavement. Although the vice-president's death had been expected at any time, there was dtill a faint hope up to the last among his personal f riends in Patterson that he would survive for some time to come. These persons, who had been neighbors an>l lifelong friends of the- vice-president, were deeply affected over his death. Mr. Hobart's illness first attracted public attention when he went to Long Branch last summer. He spent a por­ tion of the summer there, and during that time had a number of weak spells. It was not admitted then by his physi­ cian or family that he was seriously ill. Although he continued in failing healt h, he was able to drive out, and attended the Long Branch horse show. Near the end of the Long Branch season Mr. Ho­ bart went to his Patterson home in com­ pany with Mrs. Hobart, his son, and se­ cretary. About a month ago Mr. Hobart 's ill­ ness took a decided change for the worse, and shortly after that a notice was is­ sued by Mr. Hobart's family to the pub- • lie admitting' that the vice-president's condition was very critical and that lit­ tle hope of his recovery was entertained. The announcement was also made that he certainly would never again appear in public life. Mr. Hobart'8 family, his personal and intimate friends, and political associates, have since been resigned to the inevi­ table, although there were times in the last days of- the vice-president's illness that he was brighter and appeared to be growing stronger. This was especially the case during the last 10. days. On Sunday there was'a decided unfavor­ able change in his condition, and he continued to grow weaker until the end came to-day. The president was deeply affected by the telegram announcing his colleague's death, and at once dispatched a tele­ gram conveying the sympathy and con­ solation of himself and Mrs. McKinley to Mrs. Hobart. Secretary, of state, Hay, upon whom the succession to the vice-presidency now falls, heard the news upon his arrival at the state department, and he immed­ iately repaired to the white chouse. Meantime Senator Fairbanks of Indiana and Senator Foster or Washington had joined the president and were with him when Secretary Hay arrived. The secretary remained with the president about 10 minutes. He said no arrangements had yet'been made, but the president and all the mem­ bers of his cabinet would attend the funeral. By the death of Mr. Hobart, the office of vice-president of the United States becomes vacant for the rest of President McKinley s term, as the law provides no sucession. A president pro-tempore Of the senate will be elected by that body when congress assembles, who will hold the office until 1901. By law, the succession to the presi­ dency of the United States in the event of vacancy falls upon the vice-president, and in the event of the latter's death, to the secretary of state, the next in line being the secretary of the treasury, then the secretary of war, and down through the list of cabinet officers in order of precedence, fixed by act of congress when the death of Vice-President Hen­ dricks disclosed the necessity of such a provision. Senator William P. Frye of Maine is now president pro-tempore of the se­ nate. He will call that body to order when it assembles on December, 4 and preside until a successor is chosen. That he will succeed himself is generally con­ ceded. ; . 4 Literary Notes.

Owen gathered his children and grand children around him to assist in celebrating his eightieth birthday ' on Tuesday last. Mr. Owen came to McHenry from Chicago in 1840 and has been a con­ tinuous resident since. He opened a jewelery store and later added musical instruments, and is known as the pioneer piano and organ dealer in this part of. the country. A grand dinner was served and Mi* Owen was the recipent of some fine pres­ ents. Among those present were A. S Wright and wife, Woodstock; R. H. Owen and wife, and Paul Brown, wife and son, Chicago. ORDER OUT THEIR TELEPHONES. Bualnoas Men at Chlppwa Falls, Wl̂ Will Mot Stand a Kxiite In Rates. The Citizens of McHenry who have so faithfully supported the home tele­ phone company and the home laundry because they knew that such action ment the building up of local institutions and the enrichment and prosperity of their home town may find another very powerful reason for their loyalty when they learn from the experience of their neighbors the result of placing them­ selves in the power of a foreign concern, whose only local interest must necessarilly be to take as much money as possible out of the town. The follow­ ing item is copied from the Chicago papers of recent date. Chippewa Falls, Wis.. Oct. 5th.--This city is now practically without a tele­ phone system. As a result of a raise in rates by the Wisconsin Bell Telephone Company a concerted movement was inaugurated among business men, all agreeing to order the phones out. The work of taking them out is going on to­ day. The business inen say a new system will be built. The Bell Co., purchased the Independ­ ent Home Company in Chippewa Falls, after trying to drive them out by giving free telephones and cut rates, and as soon as tliey gained control they put the price up. But the people have learned the lesson that foreign monopoly means foreign aggression and they will build another Home Institution. They have simply found out what most good busi­ ness men knew long ago, that it always Eays to support the home telephone, the ome paper, the home laundry, the home factory, the home store and the home business professional and labor­ ing man, because these are the elements that upbuild a town's property. Grand Concert. Thursday evening, Dec. 6, the Mc­ Henry Choral Class will celebrate the completion of their term's work bv a concert in the city hall. The class have studied choruses from the Opera of Faust, by Chas. Gounod, a chorus by Mollay, "The song of the Triton" ana others. 4 They will be assisted by the McHenry l>and and prominent musi­ cians. McHenry has reason to be proud of the work done by its musical organiz­ ations, embracing, as does the class and the band, some of the best home talent, the work has been of a high order and would be a credit to any city.

THE VISITING TEAM PROVE TO BC STRONG PLAYERS. MeHenry Bleven Beat the Huntley Team After a Hard Fought Battle^-8core 3 to O --Game Next Saturday. • ; The people of this village werft last Saturday afternoon, treated to an ex­ hibition of foot ball that was worth going miles to see. The game was clean and gentlemanly, free from roughness and squabbling and one that will surely promote interest among our people who delight in college sports. As regards the game, too much praise cannot be given the players who all fought for every inch of ground, gained or lost. Fumbling was not marked. Officiating was good, the crowd large and enthusiastic; the day glorious and of course the result pleasing to Mc­ Henry, particularly the one hundred or more ladies who followed every detail and cheered when a good gain was made by either side. Huntley had the heaviest team our boys have been called upon to meet. Their line outweighed ours a few pounds their ends lighter but their backs hea­ vier, still the score shows partly this advantage was overcome. C. Zilliman played a good center but was no match for our Joslyn. F. Wel- tzer and W. McNeeney both put up a good game and no doubt would have gained more ground, had their inter­ ference been better but like that of most country teams it was very ragged. At full back F. Ferris did not have a chance to show his ability as a punter. For McHenry J. Krause aid nobly mak­ ing the largest runs of the day and had his interference not been so anxious to getaway could no doubt have added at least two more touchdowns to the score. G. Slimpin at left always made a gain of a few yards or more when called on. In these two men McHenry has a pair of the best ground gainers seen on their grounds this season. Nordquist and Pope put up a good game at ends only one run getting past them. Krause and Cobb as tackles, although outweighed by their apponents held them safe at all times. M. Weber and G. Gilbert allowed no play to get through them and C. Mead, bur little quarter, gave signals like a veteran. Our boys show lack of coach­ ing, particularly in that department which looks after tiie formation of in­ terference, and it is to be hoped that before Saturday of this week that weak­ ness will be over come as the Elgin Y. M. C. A. team is a good one and, in order to win, they must perfect their plays. The lineup: McHenry Position Huntley C. Pope F. Cobb M. Weber^S N. C. Joslite G. Gilbert' W. Kroustf-:̂ • C.

Too Proud to Seek Aid. r The Journal of Wednesday last says: "Suffering from lack of food and pro­ per care, and almost upon the verge of death from starvation, Lafayette Car- mack. his wife and three children were discovered Tuesday night by Agent George Nolan, of the Illinois Humane society. Both Mr. Carmack and his wife came from well-to-do families,, and when re­ duced by the force of circumstances they were too proud to appeal for help to their relatives. When found by Agent Nolan .they had not had any thing to eat "for many hours, and there was nothing in the house. The children are aged 15 months, 3 years and 6 yeats, respective­ ly. The youngest child is a boy. . He is so weak froih the lack of proper ndtff^ ishnient and care that it is doubtful whether he can live.
