OtCtat O* IM»1 Team la a Wall Played Chan*. The Chicago West Side Midgets de­ feated the McHenry high school team in a well played game at the village hall last Saturday evening, the final score oil the contest being 88 to 27. The visitors played a fast, snappy game, their team work at times being quite marvelous. The work of the visit­ ors' center is especially worthy of com­ ment his basket throwing easily winning the game for the Chicagoans. Jfhile it is a fact that the locals were ly and squarely beaten, they have nothing to be ashamed of as the score plainly indicates. The work of the home boys was well up to their stand­ ard, keeping their opponents going at their top speed to win the honors of the evening. The first half proved to be more close than the second, as the visit­ ors led our home boys by only three points at the close of this round. In the second half the locals seemed to let up a trifle, of which the visitors were not long in taking advantage. Again during the last four minutes of play the home boys seemed to take new energy and played the game in true championship form, but at this stage the lead the Midgets had taken was too large to overcome and the contest ended with the windy city in the lead with eleven points. It is not to be taken that the highs showed a lack of form, no, never, bnt played their usual snappy game. When it is considered that their opponents are a much more experienced team the locals are to be congratulated upon their fine showing. Keeping within eleven points is not bad.

New lines are opening np extensive territory to development, creating the chance of a lifetime. Ask your ticket agent to give yon full particulars, with maps, pamphlets and complete information regarding railroad rates and the stepa necessary to secure government land free. Apr 4 A. Packed House. A packed house greeted the "On the Bridge at Midnight" company at the Central opera house last Sunday even­ ing. The production was easily the best ever produced in McHenry, each and every character fitting his or her part to perfection. McHenry was in­ deed fortunate in being able to witness such a production (especially when given by such a strong cast) right here at home. Again has the public demon­ strated to the management of the Cen­ tral theater that a good show will re­ ceive good patronage. Give the public a good, clean show and it will show its appreciation by a liberal patronage.

The caucus will be held in the same way as last year, which proved so sat­ isfactory to all. The names of the can­ didates sesking a town office will all be printed on one ballot. Thus the caucus is held in the same way as an election, and by having judges and clerks at the polling places none but qualified voters will be permitted to vote. The offices to be filled this year are as follows: One supervisor, one town clerk, one assessor, one collector, one commissioner of highways, one justice of the peace, to fill vacancy.

Ladd again announces his candidacy, having served the people of our township in this capa­ city for one term, and his services have been very satisfactory. Mr. Ladd is well qualified for the position and we see no reason .why he should not receive the unanimous support of the legal voters.at next Saturday's caucus. E. C. Hawley, of Ring wood, in this week's issue announces himself as a candidate for the office of juatide of the peace, to fill the vacancy caused by Albert Francisco's moving out of the township. Mr. Hawley is well quali­ fied for the position and should receive the support of the votes*. Those wishing to become candidates shonld hand in their names to the town clerk by six o'clock' tomorrow (Friday) evening, so that same will appear on the printed ballot. The printing of these ballots is to be paid by the candi­ dates, and when leaving their names with the town clerk they shonld also pay to him their share of the printing. Every legal voter of the township should be on hand next Saturday and cast his vote for the men whom they believe will beet serve the people. Don't vote for a man just because you believe him to be entitled to an office as well as any other man, but vote for the man whom you believe is best qualified for the position and who will serve the peo­ ple in an upright, honest manner. That's the kind of men we want and that's the kind of men we shall have if the voters will only tun, (BBS, and cast their votes. Notice! Notice!

She ex­ pects to keep constantly on hand the most complete and up-to-date line of millinery goods to be found in tbe conn­ ty, and thru courteous treatment and honest prices hopes to win a share of the local patronage. The new estab­ lishment will be known as the Paris millinery and Mrs. Torrance will be pleased to make the acquaintance of the millinery bnying public at her grand opening, which takes place next Thursday, March SI.

Jamas Green, the best known and most successful auctioneer in McHenry county, died at his home in Woodstock last Sunday, as the result of injuries received the day before. Mr. Green, while crying a horse sale at the connty seat last Saturday, was kicked in the chest by one of the animals, the effects of which proved fatal the following day. The funeral was held at the coun­ ty seat Wednesday and was very largely attended. * Dangers of Pneumonia. A cold at this time if neglected* is liable to cause pneumonia which is so often fatal, and even when the patient has recovered the lnngs are weakened, making them peculiarly susceptible to the development of consumption. Fo- lep's Honey and Tar will stop the cough, heal and strengthen the lungs and pre­ vent pneumonia. La Grippe coughs yield quickly to the wonderful curative qualities of Foley's Honey and Tar.

Elgin Conrier: Company B' of the Third Illinois regiment, located at Woodstock, has been ordered mustered ont by General Scott, chief inspector of tbe Illinois national guards. The work of mustering the company ont was done by Captain McDermaid of the Rockford company of the Third regiment. The canse for the mustering out of this com­ pany is an alleged carelessness and gen­ eral inefficiency of the members. Sev­ eral of the companies of the regiment have fallen below the usual standard dnring the past few months, and this company has been made an example to warn the others of their fate should they continue in the present course. The company was organized as volun­ teers during the war with Spain, and saw active service in behalf of the country. The dismissal came as a shock to tbe members who were still acting in good faith. The reason given by people who are acquainted with the circumstances is that the men when they enlisted were but boys, and that since they came back from the war and settled down they have lost interest in the proceedings of the company and have returned to home life. The mus­ tering out was taken good naturedly by the men, and it is thought that if their country ever needed them again they would enlist to a man. INITIATE NEW MEMBERS. Royal Neighbors Take in Sevan Kew Members at Special Meeting. The local order of the Royal Neigh­ bors of America, at a special meeting held at the M. W. A. hall last Saturday evening, took in seven new members, the initiation work being in charge of members of Summit"<camp of Nunda. The new members as initiated are as. follows: C. L. Page, Fred Matthews, Bernard Harrison, Mrs. M. J. Walsh, Mrs. Charles Fobs; Mre. J. F. Miller and Miss Alice Simes. The work of initiation as performed by the visiting camp caused more than a little comment from the lips of those in attendance. One of the special fea­ tures of the evening was the presenta­ tion of the third degree as given to members of the M. W. A. i only. The degree is a most secret one, and thus we must refrain from mentioning its meaning. Those who received it know, so ask them, At the close of the initiation ceremo­ nies, all sat dowft to refreshments served by the ladies of the home camp, It is needless to mentionjyh&fcdoi^e to them--that's snppoged to be under^ stood. A program consisting of songs, .reci­ tations and instrumental music was also furnished, and was moat highly appre­ ciated by alL The local camp ia now composed of about thirty members and is now in a most flourishing condition. New mem­ bers are being added almost constantly and some day we hope to see the local camp one of the strongest in the county. The McHenry order extends its most sincere thanks to the members of the Snmmit camp of Nunda, who helped make the first anniversary such a suc­ cessful event. The visitors present were: Mesdames Perditta Mink, Fran­ ces Thomas, Harriet Rice, Becca Prick- ett, Wm. Cowlin, Etta Conover, Ada Shales, J. G. Johnson, E. Rosencrans, Mary Wingate, Addie McCollum, Delia Huffman, Dora Rane; Misses Myrtle Pricket t, Freda Wollenberg, Mintie Huffman, Sadie Wood, Carrie Shales, Slinnie Burton; Messrs. Ben Raue, Ar­ thur W.

Lake to Be Colds are keeping qnite a ramber from school this week, A field meet is being arranged with Crystal Lake here on May 4. Eddie and Willie Pfannenstill are new pupils in the third room. The game of marbles is displscing basket ball as the days grow warmer. The fourth room is becoming inter­ ested in perspective and architectural drawing. / The second room had a little program with pictures and some of Longfellow's poems on Tnesday afternoon. In the basket ball game of last Satur­ day evening our boys were clearly out­ classed by the Midgets, but, neverthe­ less, they made them work for their victory, and even treated them to a sur­ prise at tbe beginning of the game by scoring first. That the boys could make the score of 27 to 38 against the cham­ pions of Illinois speaks well for their skill and endurance. The girls played a more interesting game than before, making scores of 11 to 17, the first team leading. C. B. Burhans Testfffew After Feu* Tears. G. B. Burhans, of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes: "About four years ago I wrote you stating that I had been entire­ ly cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of Foley's Kidney Cure, It entirely stopped the brick dust sediment, and pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappear­ ed. I am glad to say that I have never had a return of any of these symptoms dnring the four years that have elapsed and I am evidently cured to Btay cured, and heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any one suffering from kidney and bladder trouble."
