BOY CONFESSES TO MURDER COMMITTED AT LAKE ZURICH ON THE 4TH OF JULY. •OtAIIEK BROS. PURCHASE J. J. FREUIWS HARDWARE BUSINESS. A belated confession made by a six teen-year-old boy, who had outwitted « coroner's jury and a half dozen de­ tectives, Sunday cleared a mystery surrounding the death of Klmer Schaf- er, victim of an "insane Fourth at Lake Zurich this year. George Jorgensen. a cousin of the Schafer boy. who was twelve years old. made the confession. Taken on a visit to the scene of the tragedy --the Schaf­ er residence at Lake Zurich--Jorgen­ sen broke down. He told how he had 8red a shotgun point blank at Elmer Schafer and Fred Jorgensen, his broth­ er. "I killed him," said the boy. "I didn't mean to, and yet it wasn't an accident. I just pointed the gun at the boys and somehow or otheh I pulled the trigger. That's all." It was on the theory that solitary environment would accomplish what Coroner Taylor of Lake county and his aids had failed to do that the boy was taken to the village where he spent the tragic Fourth. His father, heart- heavy, but resolute, accompanied him. Fred, whose left eye was blinded by the same load that killed Elmer, and who persistently has corroborated the denial heretofore made by his brother, did not go with the party, and George, deprived of his fraternal support, lost much of his self-confidence. Father and son went to the room where the shooting ostensibly had oc­ curred and for a time sat together in silence. "George," said the elder Jorgensen at length, "you had l»etter tell me everything." With his eyes downcast, the boy obeyed and admitted that" the tale by which he and his brother had lessened the suspicions of the coroner and the police was false. "We were alone in the house --we three boys," he said. "I did shoot Elmer, and when I said he shot Fred and then shot himself 1 lied. Fred lied too, to shield me. "I was alone in a room when 1 saw the gun. The younger l>oys tried to get in. I held the door against them. Then they wen,t around to the window. I heard them climbing up as I pointed the gun at the sill. When their heads showed I just pulled the trigger and let them have it. I didn't stop to think whether the gun was loaded or not. "There were no neighbors near enough to hear the report of the gun. Blood was streaming down Fred's face , and made me realize what I had done. Elmer fell back to the ground. Fred was brave and helped me carry Elmer into the house. Fred and I decided what we were going to say and we have stuck to it since." In the few brief minutes that the boys took to patch up their story, they accomplished as much as an unscrupu­ lous criminal lawyer could at a secret consultation with a guilty client. When George rushed to the residence of a neighbor to say that his brother and Elmer were shot and that Elmer was either unconscious or dead, the broth­ ers were prepared to tell a fictitious story that would compare almost word Tor word one v,rit«i another At the inquest, altho there was an incriminating Haw in the narrative, they succeeded in battling their ques­ tioners. They were not permitted to hear statements made by each other before the coroner's jury, but they displayed no nervousness. Questions were an­ swered promptly and frankly, appar­ ently. "Eliis©r was in the room and Fred and I started to join him," George told the jurors. "Elmer had the gun and he fired it. He hit Fred. Then the gun went off again and my cousin fell. Fred was hurt, but he went with me while we got help." Only once did George show emotion under .'ire, At that time he was attending the funeral of his cousin and suddenly became hysterical. Simamek Bros, of Racine, Wis., who have been passing the last two weeks at the home of J. J. Vycital in this village, and who since coming to Mc- Henry have been looking up a business location, last week purchased the hard- Vare and farm machinery business of J. J. Freund at Spring Grove, the new owners taking jxwsession of the place on Wednesday of last week. In speaking of Mr. Freund's retire­ ment the Richmond Gazette pays that gentleman the following compliment: "In the retirement of Mr, Freund from Spring Grove business circles our neighboring village loses one of its most reliable and successful business men. For the past ten years Mr. Freund has been identified with the mercantile interests of Spring Grove and in that time has built up a trade in the hardware and machinery line that marks him as a successful busi­ ness man. The policy of honest and square dealing which has always gov­ erned Mr. Freund's business will doubtless be continued by the new pro­ prietors, who come ro Spring Grove highly recommended as upright and reliable young business men. "Mr. Freund has not decided as to his future plans and is in no particular hurry to take up work, his intention being to enjoy a rest of a few months before again getting into the harness. He is thinking some of going on the road as a traveling salesman, but has reached no decision in the matter. The rest he plans taking will afford him plenty of chance to look around for future employment and it may be possible that he will again engage in business, providing a suitable opportu­ nity presents itself. For the present he will continue his residence in Spring Grove, where he has property to look after and other business that will need his attention."

The first cucumbers of the season at Bishop's factory were taken in on Mon­ day. The crop, on account of the drv weather, is bound to be short. ylor Bros., who are digging a town well on the west side, found one day last week, eighteen feet below the surface, in solid clay, a sound piece of cedar„wood. The question is, how did it come there? The many friends of John Wight- man of Chenoa, 111., will be sorry to learn that his store and goods were en­ tirely destroyed by tire one day last week. He was only partially insured and his loss is consequently heavy. R. Bishop has just put into his mill a new feed grinding machine, that has the capacity of grinding eighty bushels of feed per hour. Mr. Bishop is con­ stantly making new improvements and his facilities are second to no mill in the Northwest. The Northwestern Railroad company have been introducing new accommo­ dations in the way of accommodation tickets. Thirty ride family tickets have been withdrawn and ten ride family tickets taking their place-at the same rate per ride, and individual twenty-five ride tickets are now issued at the same rate per ride as has pre­ viously been charged for 100 ride tick­ ets. While this arrangements does not materially redact; the rates, it pro­ vides for' the purchase of ten and twen­ ty -five ride tickets at the rates which have heretofore been charged for 30 and 100 ride tickets.
