Wright of New York City passed Friday of last week at the home of his brothers here. Mr. Wright holds a responsible position with a large east­ ern concern, and while attending to business matters in Chicago last week found time to take a run out to this villa**. Is beautiful Fox Lake, once the pride of some of Chicago's most respected and aristocratic populace, to meet i re doom t Is that beautiful resort to be controlled by Chicago's underworld in the future? Is the respectable element to be deprived of the use of one of nature's most beau­ tiful spots? These are the questions that are being asked by thousands of people today. From the following arti­ cle taken from the Chicago Tribune of Monday, Jnne 13; conditions at Fox Lake have reached a moBt serious stage and to prevent a complete downfall of this beautiful resort action uiUst be taken at cnce: "Vice conditions at Fox Lake village, fifty miles from Chicago, were investi­ gated yesterday and Saturday night by a Tribune reporter and found to be worse than in the levee districts of the city, This state of affairs applies to the village only and does not exist at all points on the'lake. "Questionable women and men com- n'uu go tu luo village rroin Uhi* cago to npend their 'week ends,' how ever, have been a source' of annoyance and dread to all of the decent people who are in the habit of summering at the lake. "They hire motor boats and launches and go wherever they see fit. Property owners on the lake have appealed in vain to the village officials to put a stop to the weekly saturnalia of lawlessness. "A week ago Thomas R Quayle, sup­ erintendent of the Lske County Law and Order league, made an investiga­ tion and appealed to State's Attorney Ralph J. Dady. The raid on the Mine- ola hotel on Saturday, in which five slot machines were confiscated, was an im­ mediate result. "There are forty saloons in the village of Fox Lake, besides numerous 'blind pigs' and 'bum' boats, which do not pay a licence. Nearly all the saloons are connected with hotels. Most of the women seen in the places are from Chi­ cago's levees. "Invitations to go out to the resort and spend Saturday night and Sunday are distributed to yoUDg men^ employed in the big retail stores and wholesale houses in Chicago. The invitations are circular letters in which it is mentioned that it is not necessary to bring feminine companions with them. "The resort is not ^et in full swing. The cold weather has kept many people away, but there are a few of the levee women at the hotels, however... "The dauce balls opened Saturday ni«ht There were not more than two or three coupleB on any of the floors. It livened up a little yesterday. There is CliiIdrcn'H Hay at Ihilveriiallst Church. The services at the Universalist church last Snnday morning were in the hands of the children, and to the large audi­ ence present it was apparent that they found pleasure and delight in doing the entertaining. The day was warm and bright an ideal Children's day--and the little folks in white showed their appreciation of it in their happy, smil­ ing faces. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers and plants. All the mnsic and songs were lively and pretty and the recitations given were in keeping with the sentiment of Chil­ dren's day. One number worthy of particular attention was the recitation, "Little Oi pliant Annie," by Alice Per­ kins, who is only four years old. If she was scared when she got up there, she made good her word and "didn't let anyone know it," for the piece was thoroly memorized and given so as to be heard in every part of the church. One other special number was a beauti­ ful solo given by Mrs. Joseph C. Holly. Those who have bad the work in charge deserve words of commendation for the selection of the program and the thoro- ness of the work given its preparation. To the organist, also, is due credit fjir- much faithf nl work. The children were assisted in the Binging by the regular church choir. The services closed with an address by the Rev. A C. McHenry, in which he spoke of the different phases of child life, concluding with what the ideal education shonld be. It was a subject which, as outlined, could hardly be given justice by the speaker in the time allotted to bim, but in the words spoken was left food for thought for both young and old; and if the words of this earnest young speaker should be transformed into deeds, next Children's day would find a larger percentage of happy, comforted people in the world than there are today. What a gammer Cold May Do. A summer cold if neglected is just as apt to develop into bronchitis or pneu­ monia as at any other season. Do not neglect it. Take Foley's Honey and Tar promptly. It loosens the cough, soothes and heals the inflamed air pas- sages, and expels the cold fronf the sys­ tem. F. Masquelet. Cheap Insurance. Don't wait for fire to destroy your house, or burglars to steal your vain ables--get a telephone. Avoid the dan ger. You can summon help instantly over the 'phone. It's better than insur­ ance, for it prevents loss. Few cents per day. Chicago Telephone Company. flaa wanted at Ten^ Cotta factory. Hot the slightest pretense at hiding frrtn the view of people mi the outside the orgies going ou in the saloon wine rooms. "The usual swinging screens were missing. In most of the places visited the bar was located iu the drinking room, with tables in front of it, where men and women drank together. "Converse Marble, a resident of the village, haa been fighting the saloon element for years. He said during the day that conditions are growing worse all the time. " 'You can get any kind of a gam­ bling game yon want."' said Mr. Marble. * "I succeeded in ruining the slot ma­ chine business last year These ma chines take quarters and nickels. I had 5,000 slugs, such as are used in tefo phones, struck off of the exact size of ft cent pieces and quarters " 'On the Fourth of July last summer whep it was busy I distributed the slugs to boys. They worked the machines nn til they got all of the money ottt of them. "'Afterward when a customer would put in a real nickel or quarter he would get slugs. 'That started trouble.' POX LAKE COMMERCIAL CLUB MKKTS. Residents of Fox Lake resented pub­ lished reports of conditions in the sum mer resort city fifty miles north of Chi­ cago at a meeting called by the Fox Lake Commercial club Monday night, aud removed from office in the club a man they accused of beiug responsible for the publicity. The re|»orts had told of gambling and immoral conditions alleged to exist in the city. Mayor John Broftu in an address de dared he would pay $100 to any onev proving a blind pig existed in Fox Lake, stated it was impossible to keep out a 1 objectionable people from a summer re sort, bat that the city was clean, and said that while he knew there had been slot maohines operated receutly, none were in the city now. The man removed from office was an official of the club, and the forty mem-' bers present asked for bis resignation by unanimous vote. He tendered it at once. He has been prominent in a tight on slot machines, having been identified with a raid by Sheriff Griffin of Lake couuty, in which some were seized a short time ago, and being promiuent in others last year. Mayor J. Brown headed a committee of villagers on a visit to Chicago yester day to protest against the charges made in Monday's Tribune. The committee included J. C. Diener, C. F. Pasdeloup and George M. Maypole. HAPPENINGS IN fa'HENRY AND ADJACENT COUNTIES. Lttra to Swim. Learn to swim as soon as possible. In a few weeks the bathing season will be at its height. Already an occasional drowning is recorded. Before the sum­ mer is over death by drowning will have claimed many a pleasure seeker, yet most deaths by drowning are un­ necessary. Here, where boating and bathing are such popular pastimes, ev­ erybody ought to learn to swim. It it true that many swimmers are drowned, but ability to swim is a great precau­ tion. It lessens the likelihood of panic in peril and takes away the sensele i dread of the water 'Swimming is easily learned. It ought to be learned, and the parent is most censurable who per mite a child to grow to manhood or womanhood in ignorance of the art Think of it. Don't forget the moving pictures at the opera house, Snnday, Jnne 19. I'I*taker Cnnulrr Club. Work ou the old Northwestern hotel, located at Nippersink Point, recently purchased by the Pistakee Country club, is progressing nicely. Tike hotel is be­ ing converted into a most fashionable club house and when all improvements on buildings and gronnds are completed that club will bear the distinction of owning one of the finest club bouses in this part of the state. The club mem bership is composed of some of the most distinguished politicians of the state. The C. M & St. Paul railroad has re cently completed a neat new station just opposite the building, which will give the club members the very best of railway accommodations. Place Veer Order N*«.

The boys were arrested at Readout. They are all foreigners and range from fifteen to seventeen years of age. The arrests end'pilferings which have continued for over a month and have been the worst the detectivHs have encountered in years. The outlook for the boys is bad as they have given the police much trouble in other lines. Crystal Lake Herald: J. A. Delaney, a former postal clerk, aged <10 years, was caught in Crystal Lake Monday by Postoffice Inspector C N. Moore of Chi­ cago. charged with fraudulent use of the mails in sendiug fictitious orders for nnrsery stock to the Bryant Nurser­ ies of Princeton aud collecting cjrtqmis' sions ammountiug to nearly $300 on "fake" business.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa, has offered In­ ducements to Hunt, Helm 6c Ferris Co. of Harvard to remove to that city. The The plant of Hunt, Helm, Ferris & Co. has grown to enormous proportions and it is going ahead with giant stridee, having already attained the position of being one of the largest concerns manu­ facturing hardware specialties in the entire country, employing more than 300 hands. The Iowa city's induce­ ments are of a substantial natnre, among them a factory site, a building, reoate- metitof taxes for five years and other oncessions, all of them important and deserving of caretal consideration, bnt Harvard's business men and its citizens generally feel they cannot afford to loee this enterprise. Louis Plucker, an electrician from Cincinnati, O., engaged iu installing an electric light plant for the Star Manu­ facturing company at CarpentersviUe, was drowned in Fox river near the dam at Algonquin on Sunday, Jnne 5. He and a companion were ont in a canoe and were capsijsed in trying to land it. Men who witnessed the acci­ dent say they saw Mr. Plnuk?r come up >nce and then disappear.

School closed at Ringwood on Friday last, and Mr. Nickle had a very nice lot of presents for tfte pupils. Every pupil received one present and some as many as three each. The beet part was that all were well pleased, and each seemed to think his or her . present was all thai they deserved. S. S Shepard & Son ^ave started the clover drying business in this village in earnest this year, and are now receiving clover blossoms at their dryers. They have tin1"*" a double contract this sea­ son and in consequence have been obliged to considerably enlarge their capacity here.
