T. P. Walsh of Grayslake will em­ bark in the hardware business in that village next week. Mr. Walsh, who is a brother to M. J. and Jack Walsh of this place, was employed in the hardware store of F. L. McOmber here ten years previous to going to Grays­ lake. Mr. Walsh has many friends here who wish him success in his new business enterprise. The Grayslake Times, in speaking of the new business that is to be launched in that village by the former Mclienryite, has the following to say: "T. P. Walsh, the popular hardware man who has since his residence io Grayslake been identified with the hardware firm of Thomson Bros, until at the time they sold out, after which he remained with their successors, Len/.en Bros., is now to enter into bus­ iness on "his own hook' as the phrase goes. Today Mr. Walsh is in Milwau­ kee buying a portion of stock: he will be gone two or three days. The first of next week he will go to Chicago and buy the balance of what he will require to open a first-class hardware store. He will also sell all the differ­ ent kinds of piping as well as sell and install heating plant, in which partic­ ular line Mr. Walsh has established a good reputation for himself. "The 1'ester building will l>e the lo­ cation of the newest store in Grays­ lake. Kxtensive improvements will be made and it is estimated that the store will be open to the public about the 10th of September. We can truth­ fully say that we are pleased to know that Mr. Walsh is to remain in the village, as his former plans were to seVer his connections with the Lenzen hardware firm and go on the road sell­ ing stoves for a Chicago firm. With the new plans he will remain in Grays­ lake, where we need all such progres­ sive fellows as he is. The Times joins his many friends in wishing him an abundance of success in his new busi­ ness.

Jay Graham of Long Ijake, the crack shot who carried off the world's amateur championship with the shot gun at the Olympic games in Stock­ holm, Sweden, recently, has deserted the amateur ranks and in the future will enter the professional class. This step is considered a most important one in his phenomenal career. Many people have wondered for a long time why Mr. (Jfahara remained in the amateur class, in view of the fact that some time ago his brother, Edward Graham, entered the profes­ sional ranks and has been hanging up new records in all parts of the coun­ try. In his new field Jay Graham will find many new antagonists that he has not encountered before. It is consid­ ered very probable that he will be em­ ployed by some large cartridge or powder company as demonstrator for them and for this will receive a salary of from *,->,000 to *10,000 a year. It is said by some of Mr. Graham's friends that he remained in the ama­ teur ranks up to the present in order that lie might compete in the Olympic games. Now, having won all the lau­ rels possible to an amateur marksman, he is anxious to make a try for profes­ sional honors. I sell farms. D. F.
