When he came home that evening he im­ parted the gratifying news to his friends about town that he bad been appointed superintendent of the new state fish hatchery at Spring Grove. Mr. Hayes has cogare to be known as one of the most progressive young man of this county and vicinity and thru AS TAKBI ROH TIE COLORS OF om MANY EXCHANGES MISCELLANEOUS ASSORTMENT OP MEWS ITEMS IN CONDENSED FORK FOR BUSY PEOPLE One of the higher courts has decided that a city or village cannot legally license a Chautauqua. The new Ford agency,' which was established at Richmond laat spring, has already disposed of sixteen cars. Deerfield, one of the Lake county towns to go dry at last spring's elec- his work during the last presidential j tjOQ| ^ have a new banking institu campaign he has made himself one ef ^ the strong men in the Democratic ranks of McHenry county. Mr. Hayes worked hard to have the hatchery located at Spring Grove and in spite of all opposition his efforts in this direction were not in vain. Now in recognition of his faithfulness to bis party and his most satisfactory ser­ vices as game and fish warden he is made the. superintendent of the hatch­ ery and will be given full charge Q* same. In connection with his appointment. to this lucrative position comes the news that a new 915,000 building is to be erected at Spring Groye at once and in addition to this several new ponds will also be established. Next spring it is the Jntention to hatch a large number of pike perch as well as black bass. This year over are now being distributed to all of the lakes in McHcnry and Lake countiest During the coming week a large num­ ber of bass will be dumped Into McCol- lum's lake, which act will more than please McHenry fishermen and anglers who spend the summer vacations at that point. Altogether, over 175,000 bass have been planted this year, 10,000 being emptied in Crystal lake last week. Griswold and Slooum's lakes will be stocked within the next week Of two. The people of northern Illinois oer- tainly have every reason to feel grate­ ful towards Governor Dunne and his game and fish commission for the ef­ forts set forth in stocking the sixty lakes of McHenry and, Lake counties. ^ .

The numerous pitfalls and snares to which the unsuspecting are subjected is graphically shows and he or she who can resist , those powerful influences for ev!! mvust indeed hive supreme *.vill power. Had the parents of the chil­ dren in joint bestowed on them the proper care, whioh was justly the chil­ dren's inheritance, instead of consult­ ing their own selfish wnims, 'twould have been far different, but as Kip. ling says, "That's another story." This sterling attraction plays at the Central opera house oh ^Sunday even­ ing, August 2, with a caste of notable players. NEW MUSIC TEACHER Miss Harriet Stewart of Chicago, a post graduate of Chicago Musical col­ lege, has taken charge of Miss Rose Justen's class here. Miss Stewart was in McHenry the first of the week and with Miss Jusjen she visited all of the latter'8 scholars, with the result that she is satisfied to come to MoHenry to take up the work which Miss Justen has carried on here so successfully during the past several years. The Chicago teacher will make weekly visits to McHenry, coming here on Tuesdays of eaoh week, and wilKmake hot- headquarters at the home of Mr. and ^rs. E. E. Bassett, where the pupils will be received and lessons given. Miss Jtasten recommends Miss Stewart to her pupils and others who may wish to take lessons and feels cer­ tain that her successor's work Wtll be found satisfactory. r BOLOEJt SCHOOL COHIKACI I.»- « The coutract for the building of the new school house in district No. 42 commonly known as the Bolger dis­ trict, was let last Saturday, Peter J. Freund of this place being awarded the contract, his price being $1,580. The new school will be erected just off the cross roads near the Walter Walsh farm, south of this village. The pres­ ent school stands just across from the Walter Bolger homestead. Excava­ tion work was started on Monday of this week and the building is supposed to be finished so it may be used for the fill opening of school ICE CREAM LAWN SOCIAL The Ladies' Sodality of St. Mary's Catholic church will hold an ice cream lawn soOial on the lawn at the home, of lira* Gertrude Miller on Main street nCxttaturday evening, Sunday after­ noon and evening. Ice cream and cake will be served and the usual prices will prevail. Everybody invited to participate. . wf^nKNoesinfiliicELV Work at the new addition t-o *h* ' • ' ' ' m • L ,< j,! v.-k luost favoraMf* The bri&k work is going up rigfltti *°d it will not be long ere the wlHft«re completed. B»ad The Platafesier. M X W: P. Stevens, the newly appointed postmaster of Richmond, expects to assume charge of that office next Sat­ urday. The asylum at Elgin is again in an over ctowded condition, th6re being 1,788 inmates housed thereIh at the present time. The Forest Glen milk plant at Bel- den has been purchased by C. L. Pet­ ers & Son of Chicago, the new owners to assume charge of the plant Oct. 1. Already $620,000 has been paid over to Secretary of State Harry Woods for automobile licenses. There are now over 115,000 automobiles owned in thfe state. Tfye receipts at the Lake Geneva postoffice have increased over <2,000 within the past two years. The re­ ceipts of that office during last year were $14,378.99. Five barns on the James Dymond place at Lake Zurich were consumed by flames one night last week. Spon­ taneous combustion In the new hay Is given as the cause of the fire. Granzo & Grant, furniture dealers, have disposed of their business to their competitors, E. V. Eastman & Co., at Hebron. It seems that Hebron will not support two furniture houses. A barn and two silos on the George Garrison farm, near Barreville, were consumed by fire during Wednesday night of last week. The fire is sup­ posed to have started from spontane­ ous combustion erf new hay. A delegation of fifty-five fartners from far away Africa are on their way to Wisconsin, where they will study the methods of farming in that state and incidentally pick up a couple of hundred heads of blooded stock. About seventeen thousand gallons of oil were placed upon Marengo's streets recently. The work is one of the most complete oiling jobs accomplished in any village or city in McHenry county. The oil represents an outlay of $800. A bolt of lightning struck the cement silo on the J. N. Burton farm, near (spring Grove, during a recent electri­ cal storm. The bolt entered the top of the structure and outside of tearing away considerable tar paper no damage resulted. The Publie Service company is to in­ stall two large transformers of the air blowing type in their sub-station at Barrington. The new transformers, with 200 kilowatt power, replace the old ones, whioh have but seventy-five kilowatt power. H. B. Medlar, the Woodstock pho­ tographer, was presented with a silver loving cup at the Illinois state pho­ tographers' convention which was held at Peoria, 111., recently. The cup rep­ resents the first prize for the exhibit of four pictures at the convention. Will Lee of St. Charles, 111., a pro­ fessional pearl hunter, now has a col­ lection of pearls which he believes to be worth in the neighborhood of $3,000. All of them were found in Fox river. Mr. Lee disposes of all his pearls to professional pearl hunters who pass thru that city, J. C. Calvin of Karva*d has pur­ chased the E. K. Mcintosh farm at Richmond. The farm consists of 340 acres and the price paid was $47,000. In part payment the Richmond man has taken a business block and resi­ dence in Harvard, upon which a valu­ ation of $27,000 was placed. Geo. Trimel, who hnr "farizcJ! ii" in the vicinity of Dunham during the past twelve years, will hold an auction sale early this fall and about October 1, with his wife and two children, will return to his native land--Germany. Mr. Trimel does not like our extreme-, lv cold winters and It is for this reason that he has decided to return to the home of his birth., A short time ago the village board of Crystal Lake passed an ordinance granting druggists of that village the right to sell intoxicating liquors for medicinal, mechanical and sacramental purposes and now a petition is being circulated by voters of that village in which they ask the village board to repeal that ordinance immediately. The village has also passed an ordin­ ance appropriating .210,000 with Which to purchase a strip of land on the chores of beautiful Crystal lake, which if purchased is to be converted into a municipal park.

This was definitely decided at a recent meeting of the directors of that institution. Not only this, but the buDding is to be one of the finest and most modern institutions of the kind in McHenry county. The building is to be constructed for exclusive bank uses ami this means the erection of a bank building second to none in McHenry county. The location of the new structure will be on the Peter B. Freund lot, just east of the N. J. Justen furniture store. The strip of land which is to be occupied by the bank has already been purchased and it. is oniy if matter of time ere the West Side will see the erection of one ol the handsomest buildings in the village. ^ > Just how soon work on the new structure will begin cannot be ascer­ tained at this time, as the present oc­ cupant of the property, Johnny's ice cream tent, has a lease which does not expire until the early fall. However, the present lease of the West McHen­ ry State bank with Henry Brefeld, whose building they now occupy, ex­ pires on June 1, 1915, and it is only natural to expect the new building to be ready for occupancy on or before that date. As to the plan& and just the sort of a building that is to be erected we will have more to say in a later iss^.of The Plaindealer. ^ & IM. E.

Smith, the hustling mahager of the Central opera house and owner of the Riverside Airdome, has just completed a deal whereby he comes into possession of the old blacksmith shop property in Centerville just north of Boone creek. It Is Mr. Smith's In­ tentions to raze the old buildings and in their stead will erect a modern ground-floor moving picture"play house. McHenry, for some time past, has felt the want of a ground-floor picture theatre and now that the public is to be given such an amusement resort the moving picture fans will have cause to rejoice. The location Is ocn= tral and with Mr. Smith at the head we can see nothing bat success for ihe new enterprise. BIC CITY SHDW COMING There are delightful touches of com­ edy in "The Divorce Question" inter­ woven with this truth telling story that gives the necessary contrast and make the salient features of the play stand out all the more prominent. A pair of youthful lovers are concerned and when their troubles are most per­ plexing Father Jerome, a kindly priest, uniquely disentangles the snarl, aided by Patrick Skeliey, a caretaker of humorous inclination, in the employ of F'athor Jerome. At the Central opera house, Sunday evening, August 2. LOOKING OVER TELEPHONE PROPERTY John K. Stone, a consulting tele­ phone engineer of Minneapolis, Minn., is in the county going over the proper­ ty of the McHenry County Independent Telephone company. He is here in the interest of some large independent telephone company^and if his report is satisfactory the home line will go into the hands of new owners, who expect to develop the entire county. WILL ERECT COTTAGE Mrs. Alma Thomas, who is now mak­ ing her home in the Gage residence on the West Side, some time ago pur­ chased a building site in the Hanly addition to McHenry. Now she has decided to build for herself a cozy little cottage, work on which was started on Tuesday of this week. H. J. Schaffer has the building contract. FINED $8.00 AND COSTS John Nelson, a farm hand, was picked up by Officer Revor last Sunday and locked up. The following morning he appeared before Police Magistrate J. W. Kimball and pleaded guilty to a charge of disorderly conduct. A fine of $5.00 and costs was Imposed, which he paid and was released. A PINE NEW HONE The plasterers are now at work on die new home which is being erected by ouf estimable neighbor,.Charles C. < lolby. The ;r; .'.tU considerable attention nnd when com­ pleted will be one of UM finest rural homes in this vicinity. Go to the grand concert J at St. Pal- rick's church tonight. ( MraCAI. CQWDY AT ON BULL MOOSE TICKET. A STRONG CAN­ DIDATE VENETIAN NIGHT AT PISTAKEE SATUR­ DAY-RECENT EVENT8 AT OUR SUMMER RESORTS The excursion boats did « big busi­ ness last Saturday and Sunday. Recent dances at the Pistakee clut» house have proven most enjoyable events, while the weekly card parties are just as popular as ever. We are told that a number of lots have been sold along the shores of Fox river during the past week or two and that a number of new cottages will go up this fall and early next spring. F. L. Rainbow, William Hawley, W- Graenlng, Coroner Eugene Norton, Ernest Johns and Lyman Andrews re­ turned to their homes at Dundee via canoe Sunday, after spending a few days fishing on Fox gver near this vil- lage. The race for rowboat motor boats, under the auspices of the Pistakee Yacht club, held at Pistakee Bay one day recently was participated in by eight boats and proved quite a novel event. The race was wph by Fred Miller's boat of Chicago, which won handily over all other contestants. * The Pistakee Young Men's club gave a vaudeville show at the Pistakee Yacht club pavilion last Saturday even­ ing which was attended by a large and fashionable audience. Those who took part in the evening's entertainment displayed exceptional ability before the footlights and everyone present was more than pleased with the fun furnished* f August Larsen, wjko, with his wile and family, is spending the summer at their cottage at Orchard Beach on Fox river, has gone up to Wisconsin, where he owns a strip of land In the wilds of that state. His property borders on a small lake, where Mr. Larsen al­ ways finds the best of fishing. He makes annual trips to that part of the country and seems to enjoy it. All motor boat races advertised to take place at Pistakee Bay on Satur­ day, July 18, were postponed on account of the inability of the contestants to get their motors in action at the time of the tiring of the starting gun. Since this unfortunate occurrence motor boat owners are straining their gasoline and keeping their spark plugs in shape so as to avoid future delays of this kind. Mrs. Kline, who has been a guest at the McHenry House, was taken to the station on a cot on Tuesday evening, where she was placed on the *6:27 train for her home in Chicago. Mrs. Klin became seriously ill* the first of th£ week and her condition became such that it was deemed advisable to take her to Chicago^ where she would re­ ceive the best of csfre from her family .physician. A number of the Fox Lake saloon­ keepers have been "hucked" up of late and on Tuesday of this week State's Attorney Ralph J. Dady of Waukegan made a personal visit to that place and ordered that all saloons must be closed up tight on Sundays in the future. We understand that the village of Fox Lake now Issues licenses to fifty-six saloons and with all of these places closed on Sunday we can see where things will be pretty quiet at that place on the Sabbath day in the future. Next Saturday night is the date for the holding of one of-the season's pret­ tiest events at Pistakee Bay. This will be Venetian night and ffom the unusual Interest that Is being displayed by cottage and boat ownerB the event thi6 year promises to surpass all pre­ vious efforts. Venetian night at Pis­ takee has been an annual event for many years and always attracts large crowds to this popular resort. The boat parade on the lake will be fol­ lowed by a cotillion at the Pistakee Yacht club house. One of the very best compliments for McHenry and Fox river was heard to come from a woman who has spent considerable of her time in traveling over the country. She has visited all the beauty spots of California and other points In the West, as well as the East, and the longest she ever put up at any one place was four days. This same woman, after spending the past eight­ een days on the shores of our beauti­ ful river, has become so fascinated with its beauties and the pleasures it affords that she has asked her husband to look for a building site somewhere near this village. "Love Abroad" is the title of a mu­ sical comedy which is to be presented by the Pistakee Young Ladies' Yacht club at the Pistakee Bay pavilion on Saturday evening, August 8. The com­ edy is by Misses Frances Reed and Florence McAnsh Foreman, both active members of the club, and from reports that are current we would say that the event will be one of the biggest ever held at that popular resort. The mem­ bers of the company who will take part in the comedy represent some of Chicago's very best amateur talent and those who turn out may rest assured of ;U:iog" treated to .,omcthi»g . f .J > iuv* Tickets are now on sale.

Among the latest announce­ ments is that of Hon. Fred L. Hatch, a prominent farmer of Spring Grove> ;/#••••* PRBD L. HATTH ••VTV. who» Will be a candidate at "&& pri­ maries for the Progressive nomination for representative in tl»e legislature. Mr. Hatoh will oppose Fayette Mun- ro of Highland Park, the present in­ cumbent of the office, who was elected in the Roosevelt landslide two years ago. Reese Herbert Carr of Zitm City Is also a candidate for the Progressive nomination, as announced in these col­ umns last week. Hatch la PrMnMrt Fwpmfe> Fred L. Hatch is one of the most progressive farmers of the northern part of the state. He is a native of McHenry county, living in Burton township and part of the time just over, the county line in Lake county. *For many years Mr. Hatch was iden tilled with various local offiqes In his township. He was supervisor during ten years, also a school trustee for sev­ eral years. As a public spirited ditl- zen, lie has always been prominently identified with questions Of public im­ provement, and for a number of years he was president of the McHenry Coun­ ty Agricultural society. Mr. Hatch has served twelve years as a trustee of the Illinois State Uni­ versity, during two years of which he was president of the board of trustees. He has always been an ardent sup­ porter of the university, being a most enthusiastic and loyal friend of every means that tended to improve that in­ stitution. His interest in agricultural pursuits, especially the breeding of fine stock, has brought him into much promi­ nence among the progressive farmers, and he has been much in demand as a speaker at farmers' institute* and oth?r meetings of that nature. Altho formerly a staunch Republi­ can, Mr. Hatch joined the Roosevelt movement at il$ inception and two years ago was a Progressive candidate for re-election as member of the board of trustees for the state university. He was defeated by the election of the entire Democratic state ticket.
