Tbe McHenry Hatadealer Piiblllwd by F. Q. SCHREINER. 'VljlcHENIlY, ILLINOIS "Bird-womfui'* Is the teiy newest word. Dont Uka your vacation too se­ riously. What Is so rare aa an actress with­ out a divorce? More persons are drowned any day than are killed in airships. The summer girl is now queen, with Dan Cupid as her prime minister. Some men feel flattered when a Strange dog wags his tail at them. Babies are scarce In Pasadena, but the town is strong on grandparents. A farmer with a good potato crop would have no trouble in trading it for an automobile. 10 DIE DRIVER BUCK ANO MECHANICIAN JOSEPH KILLED AT ELGIN AUTO MEET. LEN ZENGEL WINS BIG EVENT Nearly 100 Persons Hurt When Qrand Stand Collapses Precipitating 2,000 to Ground in Terror-Stricken Heap --Coolness Saves Many. Motor boats now make thirty five miles an hour. The speed craze thus rules laud, sky and water. It Is such a nuisance to be a French jfllaywright, compelled to write all of one's masterpieces between duels. In Colorado, where potatoes have become legal tender, one can take one's change in Saratoga chips. What should be done with th£ of­ fensive person who says: "Well, how does it feel after your vac&tion?" Life's little annoyances Include per­ sons who persist In walking on the wrong side of a crowded sidewalk. In Waterbury, Conn., a man paid a •tiff fine rather than wash himself in Jail. It was no night of the bath for him. In the interests of navigation It may become necessary to put fenders on the rocks that line the Paclflo coast Articles in an esteemed contempo­ rary on "Modern Aeroplanes" should be followed by others on ancient areo- planes. A Minneapolis girl had the courts change her name from Olsen to Smith. Nevertheless Olsen Is a good Ole name. Dr. Wiley is probing Into the mys­ teries of the restaurant mince pie. That man isn't afraid to tackle any­ thing. There is one thing in favor of the Iceman. Thus far nobody has been able to invent "something just as good." Unless that flock of comets can guarantee something more exciting than cyanogen gas it may as well keep on going. The Aero Clug of America has adopted a rule barring flights over cities. There are few haystacks in the cities. Aeroplane engines of the revolving type consume vast quantities of castor oil. doubtless for that colicky noise they make. Our millionaire poloists sre ap­ plauded for defending the interna­ tional cup, but nobody sees fit to say a few kind words about the ponies which really won. Elgin, 111.--Tragedy raced with the record-breaking speed demons here and overtook one of the cars in which two men were careening around the road course. Just before the winner of the National trophy flashed across the finish line, one of the automobiles of the Pope-Hartford type, jumped into the air and turtaed a somersault. The mechanician, Sam­ uel Jacobs, was killed instantly and the driver, David Buck, sufTered in­ juries that resulted in his death a short time later. The trophy was won by Len Zen- gel In a National car, who ran at an average speed of 66.45 miles an hour, four miles an hour faster than the record of 191©. Zengel austalned an engine killing speed for the 805 miles. His car ran in splendid luck, ontlasting Ralph Mulford's Lozler, Ralph De Palma's Simplex and Spencer Wishart's Sim­ plex, three of the most touted cars in the race. Every one of them fell before the tremendous pace, leaving the trophy between Zengel, Grant and Hughes, who finished In the or­ der named. The crowd had a touch of excite­ ment not on the program at the end of the first lap when the grand stand folded up like a window shutter and tobogganed 2,000 persons to the ground. They lit in a hysterical and frightened heap, but there was little or no outcry. For twenty minutes the ambulances were busy taking care of the Injured. Then, with many of the spectators standing on firm earth, the race was resumed. It was at first thought that there were some fatal injuries, but investi­ gation showed that the worst suffer­ ers sustained nothing more Jian a broken limb. Nearly a hundred per­ sons In all sustained bruises and oth­ er minor hurts. The fact that scores were not fatal­ ly injured was due cniefly to the cool­ ness of the men and women who were sitting in the collapsing seats. Scarce­ ly a dozen rose to their foet or tried to jump. TRIMBLE IS CHIEF • ̂ vy y WORSHIPING THE GOLDEN CALF ̂ ILLINOIS MAN ELECTED HEAD OF a A. R. AT ROCHESTER. HERR WINS AUTO TROPHY National Cars Lead Field at Elgin Race--Hughes Takes III- nois Sup. Elgin, 111.--Donald Herr, driving a National car, won the Illinois trophy, the big event of the day's automobile races, finishing just nine seconds ahead of Charles Merz, who also drove a National. Herr's time for the 203 miles and 1,856 feet was 3:05:35. Hugh Hughes, driving a Mercer, captured the Kane county trophy, finishing the 169 miles and 2,460 feet in 2:37:21, after two serious accidents in which three men were injured, and which put two of the principal con­ testants out of the race. Mortimer Roberts, driving an Ab- bott-Detroit, won the Aurora trophy, Kullck. in a Ford, being a close sec­ ond. Roberts' time was 2:31:11. TO DEEPEN CAPE COD TANAL A New York woman claims to have wived a household problem by im­ porting a Filipino girl as a servant. It will be all right if she keeps Moras out of the kitchen. A Tennessee man has absolutely forgotten his identity. The fact that It* is not called upon to give testi­ mony in any investigation makes his especially remarkable. Women residing in or traveling through New Jersey are forbidden to docorate their hats with any portions Of birds, but they may use the mil­ liners' bills if they so choose. August Belmont Thinks the United States Government Should Take a Hand. Monument Beach, Mass. -- Au­ gust Belmont believes that Cape (jod canal '.indcr ccustructios shoulu be taken over by the federal govern­ ment. In a statement given out here the financier says: "The United States government sLould intercede in this canal matter and make it deeper and wider, so that it will be navigable to the largest shipB of tbe Davy." The canal will be completed in 1913, opening up one of the most pictur­ esque sections of New England. Choice Made Unanimous by Veterans --Los Angeles Selected as Place for Next Encampment. Rochester, N. Y.--Harvey M. Trim­ ble of Princeton, 111., was unanimous­ ly elected commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic when Col. John McElroy of Washington, his opponent, ended a bitter contest by withdrawing from the race. On mo­ tion of Colonel McElroy the adjutant- general cast one vote for Mr. Trimble. On recommendation of the commit­ tee on resolutions, the encampment indorsed the Sherwood pension bill, which Democratic Leader Underwood has promised congress will pass at the forthcoming session, but tbe in­ dorsement carries the proviso that the bill be made to conform as close­ ly as possible to the Sulloway bill, which was prgeonholed in congress. The Sherwood bill was favored by Judge Trimble. Co!. Nicholas Day of New York city was elected senior vice-commander. Commander Trimble announced these appointments: Adjutant general, Charles R. E. Koch, Chicago; quartermaster gen­ eral, Col. D. R. Stowits, Buffalo, N. Y., reappointed: judge advocate gen­ eral, W. A. Ketcham, Indianapolis; as­ sistant quartermaster general, J. Hen­ ry Holcomb, Philadelphia. Los Angeles, Cal., was selected by an almost unanimous vote for the 1912 encampment. In general order No. 1, issued by the new commatder In-chief, the official O. A. R. tead- quarters are established at Memorial hall, Chicago. COURTESY LEADS TO ARREST Alleged Stage Bandit, Polite to Wo­ men Pasengers, to Be Tried. Denver. Coio.--A bandit's softly modulated voice and an extreme­ ly courteous manner of address­ ing women passengers of a stage coach held up in the San Miguel canon of Colorado In 1910. caused the arrest of Alexander Peterson, accused of the crime, at Pagosa Springs, this state. He was brought to Denver to answer an indictment returned by the federal grand jury last November. CRICKET GRASSHOPPERS' FOE Minnesota Expert Declares Chirping Insect Eats Eggs of Field Pest. Minneapolis, Minn.--A cricket In the field Is worth two on the hearth. His once doleful fiddling now Is music to the ear of the farmer of the northwest. So doubtless muses M. P. Somers, grasshopper expert for the state department of entomology, after a summer-long investigation in the grasshopper infested districts .of Min­ nesota and the Red river valley. The cricket is declared by Mr. Somes to have an insatiable appetite for grass­ hopper eggs. TO KILL CANADA MAYOR Ottawa's Executive Receives Threat In Letter Under a Rome Date. Ottawa. Ont.--Mayor Hopewell of Ottawa is the recipient of a. threatening letter from Rome. Italy. It is written in a combination of Ital­ ian and dog Latin, >whlch, translated, means: "In the name of the Roman king­ dom. you and your friends I wiii de­ stroy even as unto eternal death." It is supposed to have been written by an Italian Immigrant who was de- ported by the dominion government A man In Connecticut dropped dead from joy. Yet Joy kills even fewer than lightning .strikes, and everybody a thousand or more chances to one of escaping the latter misfortune. Dr. Pranard says the steak and chicken we leave in restaurants goes to waste. The doctor does not know of the kitchen reincarnations which caterers learned from bis own Paris. It is possible to see one of the comets with a field glass, but the av­ erage timorous person will not begin making bis will before the celestial visitant becomes visible to the naked eye. Society women have taken to diving fn a submarine boat, one advantage of that method being that they do not get their hair wet. Persia's ex-shah paid a steamship $35,000 to take him back to that coun­ try. Some men go to a lot of ex­ pense and bother In hunting trouble. One of the turbins of the battle­ ship North Dakota has been "stuck" for five weeks. It Is best to have these incidents develop in times of peace. "Why do women outlive men?" asks Medical Record. One of the rea­ ls that women do not try to p on moving trains. LAKE STEAMER GOES DOWN City of Genoa Is Struck by W. H. Gilbert In Dense F o g on St. Clair River.

Y.--Most of Passengers Were Re­ turning From Veterans' Meet at Rochester--Soldier Saves Many. Rochester, N. Y.--The Chicago, Buf­ falo & New York express on the Le­ high Valley railroad, loaded with Grand Army men returning from the Rochester encampment, was wrecked at Manchester. Twenty-nine persons lost their lives and 60 were injured. The disaster was caused by spreading rails. Two engines apd two cars passed over the rails In safety. The third and fourth cars plunged over the bridge 60 feet below. The disaster was due to spreading rails. The locomotives and the bag­ gage car had passed over the trestle when the tracks gave way. A dining car filled with passengers at luncheon was the first to plunge headlong into the water. Two coaches followed, one standing on end in the water with all its passengers hurled into a heap, which completely filled two-thirds of the car, crushing and maiming all who were underneath. Had it not been for the almost ftiiraculouB presence of mind of Vet­ eran Frank J. Pinner, in charge of the U. S. Grant post, G. A. R., of Philadel­ phia, the nine remaining coaches would also have plunged into the lake. Quick aB a flash when be heard the first crash Mr. Pinner leaped up and pulled the emergency brake. It brought the coaches to a stop quiver­ ing at the edge of the shattered trestle. Before they could reach victims in the partially submerged dining car rescuers were obliged to build a foot­ bridge into the outlet of the lake. A scene almost unprecedented In railroad wrecks greeted the passen gers whoi poured out of the undam aged coaches. Victims with blood streaming from head and arm and limb were creeping and being dragged through tbe shattered glass in the window?, only to plunge into the water.

Some one yelled "Fire!" and the 1,500 people in the audience turned in their seats, saw the smoke and made a frantic rush for the one door­ way leading to the narrow eight-foot stairway, with 50 steps leading up from a vestibule. ^ Here they pile^ down on 200 people crowded into the passage, awaiting the en.1 of the per­ formance to take the places of those who had seen the show.

CITY ISOLATED 24 HOURS Wind Reaches Velocity of 94 MIIm an Hour -- Ten Vessels 1 Driven Ashore--Tide Is Over Eight Feet. Charleston, S. C.--Xs the result of a freak storm which struck this city and Savannah and which reached hurricane proportions, Charles­ ton was practically isolated from the world for twenty-four hours. Five persons are known to have been killed near here and property losses, it is estimated, will reach $1,000,000. All telephone and tele­ graph lines are prostrated. The wind gauge registered 94 miles an hour be­ fore it was broken. An engineer on the Southern rail­ way was killed in the yardmaster's office by flying timbers, a motorman and a passenger lost their lives in the collapse of a trestle and two women were drowned before they could es­ cape from their home. Severai negroes also are reported among tbe stt>rm's victims. Anxiety foit for the safety of the people marooned on Sullivan'8 island was relieved with the arrival of the Consolidated company's steamer from the island with a load of excursion­ ists and residents. Eight or ten schooners and small steamers were either sunk or dam­ aged. The rainfall was more than two inches. The tide was something over eight feet during the storm, three feet short of the r««ord of 1893. Consider­ able damage was done by the water in the low sections of the city, neces­ sitating many people being removed from their houses. The waters have caused washouts on the approaches to the Union station, preventing its use. Great damage is feared for the rice and sea island cotton industries by the rising of the tide. On August 3, 1886, Charleston suf­ fered from an earthquake shock. Sev­ en-eighths of the houses were ren­ dered unfit for habitation, 27 persons were killed and many injured and property valued at over $8,000,000 de­ stroyed. Hurricane .and epidemife to­ gether devastated the city both in 1799 and in 1874. The older and more thickly popu­ lated part of the town was burned in 1740 and a hurricane did great damage in 1752.

BEATTIE CONFESSED, SAYS KIN Accused Virginian's Cousin Paul Givea Damaging Evidence Against Defendant at Trial. N Chesterfield Courthouse, Va.--Paul Beattie, cousin of the man now on trial for his life in connection with the murder of his young wife, made his effort to Bend Harry Clay Beattie, Jr., to the electric chair. Without tbe leaBt hesitation P^ul Beattie declared that Harry Beattie had himself said that he killed the bride of a year. This testimony cre­ ated a sensation not equaled since the murder of Mrs. Beattie. As far as the general public was aware, Paul Beattie's testimony was to deal only with the purchase of the shotgun with which the crime was committed. The young man, weak- minded, sickly and a typical specimen of the "poor white" of the south, ad­ mitted after the murder that he had purchased the fatal gun. In the same breath he declared that the gun had been bought at the instigation of his cousin, Harry, and had been turned over to Harry a few days before the young wife was shot to death during an automobile ride. This point, strong as it was against the prisoner, is only a drop in the bucket compared with the testimony of Paul Beattie. The prosecution sprung another sur­ prise when it introduced as a witness, without warning, Mrs. R. V. Owen, mother of the slain girl. In a taxicab, the arrival of which was timed to coincide with the mo­ ment Sheriff GUI exhibited in the courtroom the clothing worn by Beat- tie on the night of the murder. Mrs. Owen appeared and rook the witness stand. Quickly and without the usual per­ functory questions incident to the in­ troduction of a new witness, Prosecu­ tor Wendenberg questioned Mrs. Owen as to her knowledge of the do­ mestic life of the ' Beatties and brought out a point intended as rele­ vant to the alleged motive for the murder, namely that Beattie's physi­ cal condition, due to dissipation, hkd caused much unhappiness to his wife. The witness said that on the night , of the murder she had cautioned Mrs. ; Beattie not to go out alone with her , busband. Glvwt Up By Physicians--Cured fey Doan's Kidney Pllla.
