In a few days Patrick Hoye was stricken with the disease, then his young daughter and finally a brother living near him,: Dr. Antes instituted an inquiring, learuing of the wake and get­ ting a minute description of the' first victim's disease, whereupon he conclud­ ed the man had died of sinalteox.

Elgin News: C. M. Willard, livingon Page avenue in Elgin, returned to the city Thursday with a black bass, said to be the finest ever drawn out of any lake in the northern part of Illinois.

Plans have been completed for a joint meeting of the farmers and teachers at Nunda on next Saturday, March 18. This promises to be one of the best local farmers' and teachers' meetings ever held in the county. A program of prac­ tical subjects will be presented at this meeting and the speakers will nearly all be men of actual and successful experi enco in their chosen field of work in McHeijry county. The farmers are urged to bring some samples of farm products. We are especially anxious to have a good exhibit of corn. The teachers are requested to bring speci mens of school work. Urge the boy-- and girls of country schools to atteu.l and let us do what we can to pave tli*. way for the formation of experiment clubs. This is the regular spring meet iug for section 4 of! t,he local teacher^ associations and every teacher is nrgeo to attend this meeting.

McHenry people have had but one chance to sbe our girls in a match game, that being eaily in the season-- fn fact, it was the first game Since that time the locals have improved won­ derfully.

"Way Back East," Central opera hoiue. 5 , \ • WE TAKE BOTH GAMES -EtoTH BOYS AND GIRLS ARE VIC^ TORIOUS AT ALGONQUIN. Contest* of Lmt, Friday Kvening Proved Very ' InterestING AS well AH'Kxcitlng; Ketofii Gained Soon. The boys'and girls' basketball teams of the McHeury high school who jour­ neyed to Algonquin last Friday eveuing came home the following morning with Hying colors, they giving evidence of their victory the minute the train bear­ ing them home bad pulled into the sta­ tion. ' It was certainly a happy crowd that stepped from the 10:10 a. ni. train. The teams went to Algonquin pre­ pared for good, hard struggles and.found at the close of the games, especially the boys, that they had gone through just as they had predicted before leaving here Friday night. The boys' game was won by a score of 22 to 14. It was just as the scorje indicates -a fiercely fought coutest, there being no.t a dull moment throughout, each side putting forth its best efforts to carry away the banner. McHenry, although in the lead from the very start, was forced to play ball all the time in order to win, bufHhis Wednesday afternoon. QUARTER OF A CENTURY. laindrnler of '••IWLRIF. «.

It takes a mighty good country learn to defeat them when they are in as fine a ehipe as they were on the above men­ tioned evening We do not mean to say that Algonqnin played a poor game-- no, not by a long ways; if they had they never would have seeji fourteen points to their credit. To the contrary, they put up a most-stubborn fi«ht. The five representing the Algonquin.school are a fast buuch and all played an exception ally good game. The girls of "McHenry demonstrated beyond doubt, the same evening, that they are acquainted with more than a few points of the game. . Although it was the Algonquin girls' first match game they showed up quite well, putting forth their best efforts to make at least, a good showing, and so they did. They were also shy of two of their regular players, which probably accounts for their undoing, but they must be given credit for the pluck displayed. They will some day make their opponents, whoever they may be, go some to defeat them. Our girls played their usual steady but snappy game, defeating the Algonquins by a score of 31 to 10. This makes two games they have wou this season, out of the three played, and McHenry has a just reason to feel proud of them. There are still a few" people who think basketball a rough game, but we have not heart! of anyone ever being seriously injured in the game, when played cor­ rectly. Of course, there is sometimes a Jos.
