John A. Holt, pedestrianised to Lip- pincott shore Wednesday on a business and pleasure trip, visiting the scene of his first romantic summer spent in the Fox Lake region, which occurred eleven yaars-ago April 24. Mrs. Wm. E. Follett and daughter, June, have arrived for the summer and are safely ensconsed at their cottage Eagle Point. Miss June was re­ galed by the presence of one F. N. Mc- Masters, who was a week-end guest Saturday and Sunday. Geo. Koeth, Henry Buenting and Jens Lund proceeded to Grass Lake Tuesday on a snipe hunting expedi­ tion. Altho none of them indulged in the time honored custom of "holding the sack," they succeeded in bagging quite a number of snipe. The brothers Boulden and George Koeth, Jr., had a brilliant opportu­ nity to lift their voices in song and vocalize the "Larboard Watch" while being transported across Pistakee lake, by Captain Niggemeyer Wednesday evening to attend the grand opening ball at Mercs' resort. Mrs. E. C. Howard, who with her husband own the Mineola hotel, made a business trip to Fox Lake Saturday. She has recently purchased for her daughter, Kathrene, a new automo­ bile and the latter is learning, to oper­ ate same and will make the trip from Chicago here as soon as she has ac­ quired the necessary proficiency. The Fox Lake baseball fans held an informal meeting at Kofeth's hall Fri­ day evening for the purjSose of reor ganizing the club and making it one of the regular summer attractions. The support of the business men and residents is solicited and a benefit dance is planned to take place in the near future for the benefit of the club. H. L. Scott was appointed temporary manager. The opening game of the season was scheduled to take place Sunday, May 4, but had to be post­ poned on account of rain. Several persons seemed to be glatl that Jens Lund had attained his fiftieth birthday last Tuesday and called at the Waltonian ' that evening to cele­ brate the joyous event, the subsequent entertainment taking the form of liquid refreshments, musical and vocal exercises and a denatured extempo­ raneous "cabaret" show. Fred Busse acted as "leader" of the orchestra while "Jocko, the Bug," the "noted' entertainer from the krasney resort did the "opening," "middle act" and afterpiece" of the show in creditable style.

Shiilte The usual summer train, which the Milwaukee road puts on every year to accommodate the summer visitors who come to our town, has beeti pressed in­ to service three weeks earlier than usual, owing to the vast crowd that comes out to our resorts to spend a de­ lightful Saturday and Sunday. As us­ ual it arrives here at three o'oloek, the schedule not being changed; The Illinois hotel was the scene of festivities Saturday in consequence of- the opening ball of the season. Sum­ mer girls and their escorts flitted along Nippersink avenue clothed in gorgeous spring attire and filitly lace confections, such as to delight the aesthetic tastes; of a connoisseur of feminine habili­ ment. Bredfield's orchestra furnished \ delightful music, the strains of which; were answered by a varied assortment i | of pedal extremities describing half circles, backward and forward glides, etc., in their efforts-to synchronize their movements with rythm of the melody floating out from the orches­ tra. There was a smile of happiness and contentment pervading the whole of their physiognomy that compelled the admiration and excited the envy of the cynical "anti" dancers and cre­ ated in them an intense longing to be equipped with, social graces that would enable them to join in such de­ lightful festivities. Their "winter of discontent" was not made "glorious summer," but their despondency was accentuated by the fact that they were unable to "caper nimbly in a lady's chamber," or something to that effect, as indited by the immortal bard, Shakes­ peare, etc, 41mm Ceoaell Neeta , The first meeting o<| the new admin­ istration that is to guide the destinies of the Fox Lake region for the coming two years met Thursday, May 1, at the village hall, which surmounts the hill from which a birdseye view of the down town can be obtained. The order of arrival of the new of-, ficials was * as follows: 1. Mayor Ostrander. 2. Alderman Bailey. 3. Alderman Scott, 4. Clerk Nagle. 5. Alderman Schultz. 6. Alderman May­ pole. 7. Alderman Hayek. The meeting was called to order at 2:19:30 p. m., and minor routine dis­ posed of, after which the village clerk began reading his annual report and had arrived at and was digesting the recapitulation when the cry of fire rang thru the council chamber, caus­ ing officials and citizens to thrust their heads out of the windows to see Geo. Koeth's anatomy laboriously ascending the hill leading to the village hall as fast as his corpulent condition would permit, for the purpose of ringing the fire bell, his voice thundering forth the information that the Lake Side hotel, owned by our mayor, was on fire. The council meeting was promptly adjourned, the populace Heeing pell mell down the stairs, where their pedal extremities played a tattoo, dancing with excitement Upon the cement walks surrounding the building. Corpulency or physical obesity was jrery much in evidence during the ex- fcitemdnt. A corpulent mayor dis patched a corpulent alderman after his horse and buggy stationed near the buffet conducted by a corpulent pro­ prietor, after which he averred he broke all his previous speed records negotiating the distance between the down toWn district and his hotel. Mar­ vin's mule and horse were urged for­ ward by a corpulent driver with a de­ cided limp, who attached them to the hose cart, while another driver, equipped with adipose tissues, connect­ ed a pair of iron greys to the engine and, to cap the climax, the hose cart was weighted down by such a load of obesity that the fire department of­ ficials ordered the owners thereof to alight in order to allow the team to make some semblance of-speed. And last, but not least, a rotund gentleman, who answers to the so­ briquet of "Dago" Frank, seated at the wheel of his 50 horse power Cadil lac touring car whizzed up, Forest ave­ nue at a break neck speed in the di­ rection of thi6 conflagration, while men, women and children threaded their way thru the forest and over hills and wire tepee, going in the same direction. ^ '. * *r-'- However, th'e excitement soon sub­ sided when the procession was met at Olsen's hill by emissaries from the scene of the fire, who announced that the flames had been extinguished with­ out difficulty, being, of small coiise quence and due to the negligence of persons burning leaves on the hill, who | allowed the fire to creep under a pho- WES7 McHENRY, ILLINOIS SUNDAY EVENING, MAY 11 10 CENTS TO ALL AURORA FLOYD IN TWO REELS From the Famous Novel by Rln N.

The populace perambulated back to the village hall and the council was reconvened and proceeded with the regular order of business, everything being harmonious until the question of village marshal was taken up. Three of the old and one of the new aldermen lined up for John J. Walsh, j who has held the position for some time, while one of the hold over aldermen was against his retention. The mayor bad marked him for "slaughter,'4 however, and proposed the name of George Bingham, but was unable to secure the co-operation of the council, therefore a compromise wa$ arranged by allowing the matter to.go over until the next meeting.
