To THE EDITOR: As your readers were presented with the correspondency relating to a new statiou which passed on previous occa- sions, I thought they would be pleased to know that the matter wae not being forgotten, nor the subject a dead one. I desire to, Report that progress is being made and present herewith the letters which has recently bean written relat­ ing to the subject. Beepectfully, F. M. GOODMAN. "Wliat McHenry, III.. Oct. 24,1906. MARVIN HCTGHITT, President, ^ Dear Sir:--Four years ago (Nov. 24, 1909) I had the double pleasure ot ad­ dressing you and of responding to re­ peated requests of our village folk of making an appeal for improvements in railway transportation and station fa­ cilities, on the great "Pioneer line west and northwest of Chicago" at this point, McHenry. Yon graciously accepted the appeal Mid referred my letter to the General Manager and stated: "He will give care­ ful consideration to eaoh of the com­ plaints named." On Dec. l, 1908, Mr. W. W. Gardner acknowledged the receipt of my com­ munication, evinced a kindly interest therein and for our people and said: "If the good people in that vicinity will in­ dulge us for a few months longer I have no donbt but that we shall, in a measure meet their expectations." Realising that "large bodies move slowly,"! reported progrees to our citi­ zens and at the end of a year's time (Oct. 19, 1908,) addressed the General Manager and a week later received word from him: "The company by no means has overlooked the matter o( proper sta­ tion building at McHenry." But as we have waited most patiently for four years and have heard nothing more our appeal, we feel sure that we have been overlooked and we again ask to be accorded treatment dne an intelligent community. The communication referred to from Mr. Gardner called attention to "the dittcnlty in securing material and the general unreliability and unsatisfactory conditions relative to labor." We feel it to be the part of wisdom to consider these matters and have waited long aft er all circumstances have changed and prosperity again restored, but we are still ignored, Mr. Gardner said also 'The idea which prevails among com­ munities that a railway company al ways has more money than it knows what to do with * * * is an erroneous one." On this point we were profoundly sympathetic, for being hard-up is one of our constitutional ailments and we will probably not recover till railroad farm are reduced to a proper level commen­ surate with the actual cost of transpor­ tation. But see, Mr. President, what has oc* cured thru prodigious travel, high rates and interest on funds not expended! We learn that the Great Pioneer has saved and is going to expend $20,000,0(10 on a new station for Chicago, while it is only four years ago that Mr. Gardner was pleading poverty. ^. Now sir, we are asking for the expen­ diture of the merest tithe of a tithe of this vast Bum and feel that we are really entitled to greater consideration than we are receiving Next to Lake Geneva our station shows the greatest transpor­ tation. The present season has wit­ nessed the completion of a dam across the Fox river which will insure a con­ tinued and uniform depth of water thru- out the Fox Lake region and greatly in- ot ease the number of visitors and efforts are making for a combination of rail and boat service and while the profits from oar efforts fall largely to you, we are still doomed to the use of an unsani­ tary and insanitary waiting room only 16x80 feet, while it frequently happens that from 500 to 700 people await trans­ portation at the same moment from our village to the city. Mr. Gardner also remarked: " We moet certainly desire the good will of all communities on our line and must handle our property from a policy which will deserve their confidence and com­ mendation. I therefore trust that you w|ll have no misgivings as to tbe fn- tarn." In conclusion, Mr. President, I woald courteously ask, are we not being trifled with? Are we being treated as grac­ iously as we have been just in waiting patiently f This old station whioh has served for 86 years is falling into decay suggestive of eremacausis and has be­ come trnly distasteful to us, its paint desquamating in patches ^reeeuts a mor­ bid condition and I can say truthfully, and you may infer reasonably, the management is not winning the confi­ dence nor commendation of its patron^.

In this vast soli­ tude of interstellar space is room for many bodies to wander undiscovered for thousands of years, and it would seem that there are many swarms of minute bodies which do so. If they chance to come near enough, the attraction of the large bodies of the solar system pulls them into it nod we have the spectacle of a comet if the swarm is great and dense enough for electrification from the sun's energy, or whatever it is that renders them luminous, to make them visible. Once pnlled into the solar sys­ tem they are apt to be captured and confined to an orbit which assorm their return again and again. Sometimes the earth plunges through them swarms. When they strike the earth's atmesphere with their velocity of about 36 miles per second, they are heated more intensely than in the hotteet furnace and we see them as "shooting stars," or meteors. Over one hundred of these captured swarms thru whioh tbe earth passes are known. Since tbey are moving in nearly parallel lines, they seem to come from a point in the heavens, different for each swarm. Tbe swarm which we missed seeing on Nov. 18th is the famous Leonids which gave the brilliant display or "star show­ er" of 1888 and of 1866 but which failed its 'expected brilliancy in 1899. We meet this shower "head on" about No­ vember 10th and continue in it for sev­ eral days, the 13th being about its oen- tor. When we meet a swarm in this way it mnst be looked for in the morn­ ing or between midnight and daylight. About tbe last of this week we will be overtaken by another famous swarm, the "Andromedes," appearing to come from the oonstellatian Andromeda, which at eight o'clock la the evening If directly overhead. This is a new swarm, first appearing in 1872 and coming this year on its fifth return since tbat time. This swarm is probably Biela's comet, done to dentil by venturing too near the earth. Still another swarm, the Geminids, from a radiant in the oonsteUatkfti, Gemini, which is in (Im anoning sky, may be looked for about Dec.f7th to 10th. Bend The neighb ring towns, have raised the price of shoeing as follows: For setting shorn, 30cents;new shorn, 40cents; never-slipe, 60 cents.

A minister's wife waa busily engaged one afternoon mending the family clothes, when a neighbor called for a friendly chat. After a few minutes of news and gossip tbe caller remarked, as she began to inspect a basket of miscel­ laneous buttons, "You seem to be un- nsually well applied with bnltens of all kinds. Why, there's one like my husband had on his last winter's coat." "Indeed," said tbe minister's wife, with a slight smile, "all thorn bnitons were found in the contribution box, so I thought I might ae well make use of them. What, must yon gnf Well good bye. Oome again soon." The Iroquois Theater oomany, which owned the theater in Chicago at tbe time of the in December, 1908, was d:scharged as a bankrupt company by a judge in New Jfetsey on Monday, and as a result the suits against the company which were brought by relatives of people who lost their lives in the disaster will he withdrawn There were 278 of theee sails and in two of the number Kenosha people were the plaintiffs. It is estimated that the total amount detntpfted ffeftia tite com­ pany was more than #3,50(^000. The company has settled aH «IMhe mercan­ tile debts against it, but it was stated by the attorneys that it woald have been a physical impaesftUMr the company to pay the «a«t «moont that bad been demandsd ft* is--miii. Tbe many friends of the couple will quite agreeably surprised to learn tfctt Mr. Henry B. Dowe and Miss Chris- i 6h Bum have been victims of Cu­ pid's darts the past week. Tbe happy young couple left town on the quiet last week and on last Thurs­ day morning, Nov. 15, at Grand Haven, Mich., were made man and wife. The moay was performed at St. Pat­ rick's church, with the Rev. H. P. Mans officiating. The only relatives to witness the ceremony were Mr. and MM. John Bnas^F Spring Lake, Mich., where a wedding reoeption was tender­ ed them. Ilteanwly married ones ar­ rived in M oll--gy last Tuesday evening, and are making their home with the bride's mother, Mrs. Bernard Bum. They will be at home to their friends at Ingleside, 111., after Deoember 1. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Bernard Bum of this village and has always made McHenry her home. Since leaving school, Mim Bum, with the ex­ ception of two years, daring whioh time she eerved as deputy postmistress at the Wmt McHenry poetoffice, 1MS been oqe of MoHenry county's most successful school teachers, teaching in McHenry and the immediate vicini ty. Her school teaching experience covers a period of sixteen years and during all this time not one complaint has been made against Iter, which speaks most highly for her, both as an instructor and a citizen. During her residence in McHenry she has made many warm friends who are sorry to lose from their midst a friend who has always been so highly esteemed by them, bat the good wishes of all will accompany her to her new home. The groom is one of Lake county's most promising young men. At Ingle­ side, where be has made his home dur­ ing the pest several years, he is the pro-% prietor of a livery stable and is doing an excellent business. Hes is well and favorably known thruout the county in which he resides and is a most courte­ ous young gentleman to meet.
