Refreshments, 15c. This morning was the coldest of the season in this section. The thermom­ eter marked eight degrees below zero. Simon Stoffel has Jjpught the resi­ dent property of Mrs. E. R. Austin first door east of Parker House. Con­ sideration, tl,400. ' John R. Brents has bought a lot and will build him a residence oft the West Side in the spring. We also hear of quite a number of other residences that will be built in the spring. Our ice men are looking more pleas­ ant this Wednesday morning. Ice is reported as seven inches thick on the pnod *nd the thermometer ranging from one to ten degrees below zero. The friends of Howard Perry will be glad to learn that he is standing well in hi* class at West Point Military Acad­ emy.

As will be seen by a notice in another place in this paper, John Evanson & Co., West McHenry, are steamship agents for ocean passage to Europe, representing all leading lines. The oldest daughter of John Niesen, aged about six years, died at noon on Tuesday. We learn that she was only taken sick on Sunday. Inflammation of the bowels, we believe, wasthtf cause of her death. Richard Kenaelly, a former resident of this town, died at his home in -Elgin on Monday of last week. His age was 66 years. He was buried from the Catholic church, in this village, on Wednesday last. Mrs. Sarah Ostrander, of this village, and W. C. Howard, of Lake county, were married at Genoa Junction on Monday last. Although somewhat of a surprise to their many friends, never­ theless--bon voyage. The prospects now being favorable for a crop of ice, the Washington Ice company will immediately commence the erection of a new ice house at the head of the pond, in this village. They propose to just double their present capacity. The Willing Workers will hold an Old Fashioned Spelling School, at city hall, on Friday evening of next week, Jan. 24. Let everybody come. A prize will be given to the best speller. Admission free. Refreshments will be served. The Scott Family are advertised to give one of their celebrated concerts at the city hall on Tuesday evening of next week, the 28th. They are too well known here to need anything mpre than the simple announcement to fill the house full. Thos. Knox evidently believes that pedestrianisui is a sure cure for la grippe, as he had one of the victims making good time, "go-as-you-please," around the block on Saturday last. Forty laps at five cents a lap cured the viettui--at least of the pedestrian fever. - We understand the contract has been let to put a ne^r roof on the Riverside House, and also to change Over the large room over the store and make six more fine large sleeping rooms for the hotel. The present owners will leave nothing undone to make this one of tbe finest hotels in this section of the country. A business men's association for the furtherance of the business interests of McHenry is now a much needed factor in the economy of its Increasing prosperity and future progress. The wheel is moving onward and should be caught onto. There is a tide in the affairs of men--and cities--which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. The mill will never grind with the water that is past. Let's be up and doing. The Fox River Fish and Game asso­ ciation, composed of Chicago sportsmen who have summer residences or club­ houses on Fox lake, have elected the following officers for the ensuing year: president, George E. Cole; vice-presi­ dent, C. F. Hills; secretary, JohnWilk insoa. It was decided to continue the work of protecting the fish and game i It was proposed to employ an officer to S act as game warden and see that the game laws are properly enforced This is the society that made it rather warm for some hunters last summer when they went hunting before the law pired. On Monday a solitary individual was seen making regular trips around the public square in this village, a la O'Leary. Some said he had la grippe and had gone crazy, others that he was looking after the Indian relics that Hank McLean insists are buried in and around that historic ground, while still others claimed that he belonged to the "Go-it-alone Club" and waslooking for-boodle. Be that as it may, he kept viI? that continual pace until six n m when he retired to his resting place "in the green forests." Wehavesince learned that he was "the last of the Mohicans," searching for the resting place ot bis forefathers, and that he found--only two dollars and a half. The McHenry County Teachers' asso­ ciation met in this village on Satur­ day last and drew out the largest atten dance of any meeting of the kind that V - • • has been held for many a day, over one hundred teachers being present at the afternoon session. The address of Prof. Quackenbush, of Kane county, in the afternoon was very interesting and was listened to by all with marked atten* tion. Our citizens turned out in good­ ly numbers to both morning and after­ noon sessions and expressed themselves as highly pleased with the exercises and interest manifested by the teachers of the county. We believe no county in the state can show a finer corps of teachers than McHenry oounty. The next meeting will be held at Nunda sometime next month, of which due notice will be given. JANUARY 29, 1890 Married, at the residence of Clarence Cobb, in McHenry, Jan. 1890, by the Rev. A. J. Brill, Liqus F. New­ man and Miss Mabel A. Ford, both of McHenry. The ice harvest commenced in this village on Tuesday, the Knickerbocker company setting their men at work and the McHenry brewery having a full force filling their ice houses. The ice they are now getting is about eight inches thick and very'tine, but there is every indication that there will be much heavier ice inside of the next two weeks. But it is better to be on the safe side and take what ydu can get now. The spelling school, under the au­ spices of the Willing Workers' society, at the city hall, on Friday evening last, drew a large attendance, and proved one of the most interesting entertainments given here in many a day. Prof. R. D. Scott, the blind jnusician, succeeded in spelling the class down. McHenry had a narrow escape from a disastrous fire on Sunday morning last. About ten o'clock smoke was discovered issuing from the basement of Stoffel & Blake's store in Riverside block, and on investigation fire was discovered among a pile of egg boxes in one corner of the cellar. It had got under pretty good headway and had scorched the floor considerably. Prompt action by those present soon extinguish­ ed the flames. Had this occurred in the night the entire Riverside block and adjoining buildings would have been destroyed. Whether the fire was caused by spontaneous combustion or by rats gnawing matches is not known. Mrs. Thelen, wife of Peter Thelen;- died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. A. Fisher, in this village, on Monday at 1:25 p. m., aged forty years. Mrs. Thelen has been a great sufferer for almost'a year with a tumor in the sideband all that medical skill could do has been done but without avail. She leaves a husband and 11 children, Mrs. Adolph Fisher being the oldest, and the youngest but thirteen months old to moum her loss, who have the sympathy of this entire community in their hour of sorrow. The funeral will be held from the Johnsburgh church at 10 o'clock a. m. today, Wednesday. February 5, 1890 Married, at the Catholic church, in McHenry, Jan. 30, 1890, by Rev. Fath­ er O'Neil, Jay Doherty and Miss Anna Knox, both of this place. The firm of Barnes & Smiley, attor- neys-at-law, Woodstock, have dis­ solved partnership, and C. P. Barnes ill remain at the office of the late firm. O. W. Owen and Albert Colby have applied for a patent for an attachment to a horse rake which we think is the most perfect thing, for the purpose for which it is intended, we ever saw, and one which no farmer will do without after he has once tried it. Petty thieving is going on in our vil­ lage to a considerabe extent this winter, and our citizens ire perfecting a plan to catch the marauders, whoever they may be, and mete out to them the punishment they deserve. Wood piles have suffered in different parts of the village, and in two cases whole dressed nogs have been carried away. It is fully time that a stop was put to such acts, and if caught in the act a pill of cold lead would not be a bad remedy.

Hunter Boat company, tdgfether with their wives and a few invited friends, enjoyed a banquet at the Fred Justen hotel last Thursday evening. The spread, which was server}, in courses and consisted of all the season­ able good things,, took place at six- o'clock, covers being laid for forty yuests. Landlord Justen and his wife left nothing undone that would add to the completeness of the banquet and f»som those who were present we are told that it.was one of the most elaborate events of the kind that has taken place in McHenry in a long time. The tables were ntCely arranged and prettily decorated with flowers and the dining room presented a scene that was most inviting. After ample justice had been done to the bountiful repast, a short musical program was listened to, the vocalists being Mr. and Mro. C. M. Bickler, Charl es Frett and John I). Lodtz. The entire party then sojourned to \>he Central opera house, wheiJe they took in the second show. The event will go down in history as one of the happiest ever enjoyed by the boat workers and so successful was it that it has been decided to hold an­ other on March 13. Having purchased the meat and grocery stock of G. C. fSosma, we wish to announce that we are now ready to serve the public. Our constant aim will be to carry in stock a line of Meats, Vegetables, Canned Goods and Bakery Goods that will meet with public demand.

Alfred inquired about the meeting of the Glee club Tuesday afternoon. We supposed he was running for presi­ dent and was afraid he would lose out. Teacher: "Who will work this prob­ lem? I am looking for volunteers." Alfred raises his hand. Teacher: "I did' not say volunteers for the German army." The following letter explains the reason for the disappointment the peo­ ple received on Monday night at the school auditorium Chicago, Feb. 2, 1915, Prof. Edgar Nye, McHenry, 111. Dear Committee--Due to the terri­ ble storms which we had during Sun day and Monday, the Lyric Glee club was hopelessly delayed in central Wis­ consin. They drove fifteen miles in order to make a train which they thought would get them into Chicago on time to make their McHenry date, but Mr. Hendry telegraphed us as early as 12:00 noon Monday aud it was not received in the Chicago telegraph office before 8:30 p. m. He also says that he tried to reach the committee from Milwaukee both by telegraph and telephone, but the wires were down and it was impossible to reach you. We did not know until this morning that they had missed their date. We regret, very much that this post­ ponement was necessary, but when storms delay the trains it is impossible for the attractions to reach tneir en­ gagement. Yours very truly, CBNTUBY LYCEUM BUREAU. p. E. HARSHUARGER, v Mgr. Routing bept.
