It was the intention of the manager of the McHenry Sox to make Sunday, September tj, the closing day, but ow­ ing to the fact that the club is in debt it was decided by the players to play two more games.' The players have Madly donated their services for last Sunday's as well as the coming game and in this man­ ner they hope to clean up all the out­ standing indebtedness. So far as the national pastime Is oon- cerned the baseball season in McHenry has been -one of the biggest successes ever recorded and, while the club finds itself in the hole to the extent of about 950, the players as well as lovers of the sport feel that McHenry has been giv en the very best that amateur baseball affords today. And this is not all They also feel thrt^the McHenry team the village has been advertised as it has never been advertised before. When it is taken into consideration that from four to seven hundred people turned out to each and every game played on the home grounds this sea son, one can readily see that quite a number of out-of-town residents were drawn to this village thru o»r baseball team. \ We don't believe that there Is a per son in McHenry who wishes to see Mr Walsh, the hustling manager of the McHenry baseball olub, dig down into his own pocket and make up the ld6s that the club has suffered during the present playing season. As jpreviously stated, the players are willing to do their share to make up the shortage and ndw if the loyal fans will do their part by turning out at next Sunday's game the shortage will be overcome and the season will close with a clean slate. The attraction for next Sunday, as Will be •. seen on the back page of this issue, is an exceptionally strong one And those who turn out will be well rgpaid for so doing, as the game prom­ ises to be one of the best of the season. Let's give the boys a nice, big turn­ out next Sunday and thus assist in making the season a success financially as well as socially* _ .

B. Gilbert on Saturday last. Nineteen ladies were present and an unusually good time was enjoyed. Mrs. Alice Hutson Was elected %as secretary to fill the office vacated by Mrs. Hunger- ford, who is moving to Chicago. Other business took up a good share of .the afternoon. However, the iadies had time to enjoy the delicious refresh­ ments, which our hostess served in a very pleasing manner. The previous meeting- held with Mrs. Allen at Ringwood, was not given any notice in the paper, .the secretary being out of town, but we would like to say it was a musical treat, as other .meetings held at her pleasant home have been and everyone who turned oot spent a very pleasant afternoon. ' SBC. GETS TRY-OUT IN CHICAGO Walter Freund, McHenry's phenom­ enal blind bag puncher, was in Chica­ go one night a short time ago, where he was given a try out at the Rex the­ atre on the West Side. His act, we are told, took better than anything1 offered at*the theatre that particular night and we would not be surprised to see the McHenry young man booked out at any time. He has put in his application at the Western Vaudeville booking agency in Chicago and it was thru them that he was given a try out. Walter is anxious for a booking and when once he gets this he is certain of success, as there are few bag punchers who btfndle seven bags. BIG DANCE A dance will be given tinder the auspices of the R. & E. syndicate at Stoffel's hall next Saturday evening, Sqpt. 28. Waltzes, two steps and the tango will predominate, while two special features, a prize tango and European war dance, will also be on the program. The music will be fur­ nished by the A. R. K. orchestra. All red headed couples will be admitted free. Your presence will be appre­ ciated and a good time is assured all. Admission, 50 cents. - AGAIN SEINING CARP • Ben Stilling and his gang of men are again engaged in their annual carp seining work at Pistakee Bay. The hauls thus far have been quite light and from present indicatiofis the ship­ ment this fall will be small as com­ pared with other seasons, which goes to show that the carp are diminishing in tlumber in these parts. T. fV IOWA PROSPEROUS " In renewing his subscription Plaindealer, W. H. Laughlin, who is now engaged in the mercantile bgsi- neaa at Dows, la., writes us that every­ one is prosperous in that section of Iowa. He describes the crops as im­ mense and adds that business in gen­ eral is extremely good. He also wishes to be remembered to all. aVMeAlUsttra* Marengo now has one of the best ornamental street lighting systems that may be found in any city of its size in this state. Nineteen lights have been plaoed along her business streets. ' An Italian^ employed in hauling gravel for the street paving gang at Lake Geneva, was caught in a sudden slide of sand and gravel one day last week and before he eould be rescued he died. Palatine's two day fair and held in that. village proved a big suc­ cess and it 16oks as if it will be made an annual event in the future. The attendance on Friday, was close to 5,000. Rev. Daniel J. McCaffrey, pastor of the Sacred Heart churah at Marengo celebrated his twenty-fifth anniversary of his ordination into the priesthood with a silver jubilee held at the Ma­ rengo church a week ago last Sunday "Red" O'Brien, the Woodstock wrestler, has been training all sum mer so as to be in readiness for all comers this fall and winter. "Red is in tiptop shape and is particularly anxious to meet the top notcher in his qlass. Eugene Becker, a farmer residing two miles east of Woodstock, ran over his seven-year-old daughter, Gene­ vieve, with a wagon loaded with corn stalks late last Friday afternoon and crushed her skull. She died instantly. The accident happened in the barn­ yard. The little girl was playing about the wagon as her father loaded it up. As he mounted the conveyance to drive away, he looked for the little girl, but could not see her. He sup­ posed that she had run away from the barnyard. It happened, however, that the tot had darted beneath the wagon to pick up something or other. As the team started she was knocked down and one of the rear wheels passed over the base of her head. She uttered a startled cry when the wheel knocked her over. Mr. Becker stopped the team and looked back. He was horri­ fied to see the little girl. lying face down on the ground, her childish locks wet with 1>lood. He picked up the un conscious form and ran into the house. A physician was called. He said that the girl had been killed idstantly. Woodstock Sentinel: Nothingdaunt- ed by his recent defeat for sheriff, and displaying the same wholehearted good will and loyalty to his friends as in all the years gone past, Dorr W. Thomas on Wednesday evening of this week entertained a multitude of friends and acquaintances at a fish chowder supper served in the big pavilion at the picnic grounds on the east side of the river near Algonquin, ^he event was a suc­ cess and the multitude of guests vigor­ ously cheered their host, who, just coming out of a decisive defeat for a county office, could 'forget the cam­ paign and its ending and extend the hand of* fellowship to friend and foe alike, asking no questions, but with his own hands serving to each and all without distinction the delectable dish of fish ehowder, fo| which these an­ nual events have become famous. At the request of the host, Judge C. H. Donnelly of Woodstock acted as toast- master for the brief speechmakinr which followed the serving of the feast. The judge announced the pleasure of those assembled in the opportunity of being present and in a few words in­ troduced Representative F. N. Shep­ herd of Elgin as one of the speakers. Mr. Shepherd is the Republlcaa^andi- date from this district for congress> but in his short, but well worded, ad­ dress he made no mention of politics, promising to take up questions of that sort on more appropriate occasions. Representative E. D. Shurtleff fol­ lowed with a very fine ^tribhte to the unswerving loyalty of Dorr Thomas to his friends,' who- ofctimes had stood steadfast in a cause which among his neighbors and acquaintances was most unpopular. Mr. Shurtleff's address was a tribute to the man who amidst cir­ cumstances as above can stand stead­ fast by his friends, facing the musio whatever it might be, and unflinching­ ly go forward along the lines he con­ sidered right. Mr. Shurtleff followed the above with a news statement that a movement is now on foot looking forward towards legislation to organize the territory along the Fox river into a drainage district for the purpose of lowering the channel of the river, building dams with locks and making extensive improvements. Mr. Shurt­ leff wanted the people to know some­ thing about what is under considera­ tion, so that when the time comes for the representatives at Springfield to act they may do so with the best light to be had from the district effected. Following Mr. Shurtleff the chairman introduced State's Attorney Joslyn, whose remarks were but brief and then Lynn Richards of Crystal Lake expressed his appreciation for the hearty support he -had received as a •--fay frrflifignrar. ft BUHJ NEW GARAGE It. I. OVERTON TO ERECT MODERN GARAGE - suiLDqra / ; it'-- 1 m A deal whereby R. I. Overton, the hustling liveryman, becomes the owner of the F. J. ftarges property on Pearl street, near the river bridge, was con­ summated the first of the week. The deal includes the garage build­ ing, now occupied by John Knox, to­ gether with the property adjoining same, 66x132 feet. The house, which has occupied the property for many years and known as the old Karges homestead, is retained by Mr. Karges and^ according to present plans, will be moved to the latter's lot in the porth end of town." In the purchase of the KSrg^i prop­ erty Mr. Overton believes that he has come into possession of the most valu­ able piece of garage property to be found in McHenry. The location could not be better, and, in view of the fact that the auto livery is fast supplanting the horse, be found that the move to the lower' end of town would not only be a profitable one, but one of absolute necessity as well. The Karges property has been on the market for the past two years or more and the wonder is that it has not been pickfed up long before this. In interviewing Mr. Overton ss to his future plans, a Plaindealer scribe was informed that a new garage build­ ing with a 50-foot front is to be erected and will be ready for occupancy with the opening of the spring business. Just how long the building will be ha£j not been decided, altho the writer was insured that the structure would be no less than 100 feet in length. The building material to be used in its construction will consist of cement, steel and stone, making same as near fire proof as it is possible. The building will be constructed separate from the one now occupied by Mr. Knox, whose lease oir same does [not expire until May 1, 1916. This means that with the expiration of Mr. Knox'8 lease the present structure will probably be torn down. The new building will be steam heated, which means that the place will be open for business the year round. In the rear of same will be located a repair shop, while the bal­ ance of same will be used for carrying on a general automobile livery. Since embarking in the livery huai? ness in McHenry some few years ago, Mr. Overton has gradually worked into the automobile livery until now he owns three cars and expects to add two more auto bus trucks. The new addition, it is expected, will be made next spring. The passing out of existence of the did style horse livery was slow, but sure. When Mr. Overton first entered the business in McHenry there wSre two horse livery barns in this village besides his own, the other two barns being owned by Wm. F. Holtz. The three barns at that time kept no less than forty horses and during the sum­ mer months there was plenty to do for all. Times have changed since then and after purchasing the Wm. F? Holtz interests here Mr. Overton has gradu­ ally worked out of the horse livery un­ til now the once-upon-a-time long string of horses has dwindled down to an even dozen. Next spring he hoDes to cut down his horses to four or five teams, just enough for funeral purposes. The building of the new garage will also mean the closing of the old Wigh£ man barn on the East Side, which has been used as a livery barn during the past quarter of a century or more. Mr. Overton also informs us that he hn taken the sub-agency for the Over­ land and Studebaker cars and will be pleased to talk business with those in the market for a new automobile. Work of manufacturing the blocks for the new ftuilding will begin at onee.

Dear Sir--Replying to /OttT letter of the 12th instant, there are inclosed copies of the rules and regulations of this department for the prevention of the spread of tuberculosis in cattle. Dairy cattle sold at public auction and moved interstate from the quarantine area are required to be tuberculin tested and certified to be free from disease the same as other, dairy cattle.

Cary is anxious to have , the gas com­ pany extend their mains io that village and it is for the purpose of going over the field that Mr. Corr has been sent there. Ray, since coming to McHenry, has made many friends here, who are sorry that be could not remain as the permanent manager of the company at this point. A PERFECT BASS Ben Miller of Chicago bears the dis- tinction of landing one of the prettiest black bass which has been taken from the waters of Fox river this season. He eaught the prize a week ago last Sunday and the following Wednesday he took the fish into Chicago with him, where it is now in the hands of a taxidermist. The fish measures a trifle over twenty-one inches in length and tfpped the scales at six pounds. It aurely was a beaut.
