The annual Motor Boat show is on in all its glory at the coliseum in Chicago and from all reports the Mc- Henry exhibit is the largest and best. The show opened up last Saturday and two sales were made on the open­ ing day. Since then, we are informed, the sales have been very satisfactory. In speaking of the McHenry product the Chicago Herald of Wednesday morning had the following to say: Beauty in lines and power to drive the craft thru the water at a high rate of speed, but at, the same time net a maximum of pleasure to the occupante, is what has been accomplished by the Everett Hunter Boat company. This is displayed to the visitors to the show by the models which they have brought to the coliseum from their factories in McHenry, 111. The officials of this con­ cern have been leaders in the industry since its inception and as a result have not only been able to keep abreast of the times, but to show the way in many instances. The boats at the show carry out the method which this company has al­ ways followed, that is, in the designs Of-their hulls they give the first con­ sideration to safety, comfort, speed and beauty. The craft show a study of the requirements of a comfortable craft of all sizes. Width and height of seats, with pas­ sageway between, lockers, quality and construction of cushion, sufficient free­ board, height of coaming to form a comfortable back to the seats, properly constructed floors, quality of floor cov­ ering, color of wood filler used on wood to bring out the natural grain, quality of varnish and manner of application. The fittings used are designed and tnade especially to harmonize with the other effects, with due consideration to strength. Another important point is the construction of the rudder, gaso­ line tank and their attachments; the materials used and the space of hu'l availably for storage, fitted up with large lockers. I L UTTEK AGAIN FINE# HATS IN THE RING mot I. mow AND DR. D. WELLS 00T m PRESIDENCY UF-WM. SINES FIRST TO PINED f!0O AND COSTS AND GIVEN DAY JAIL SENTEHCE Woodteoek Sentinel: ' Horace L Ritter of Lily Lake was arrested and brought into county court Monday upon information setting forth illegal selling of liquor, the information to thatTpffect having been tiled by State's Attorney David R. Joslyn last week. Ritter entered a plea of guilty and was fined $150 and costs, totaling $202.45, and was sentenced to 90 days in th$ county jail. The information filed against Ritter contained three 'counts, the first two charging the illegal selling of liquor and the last a nuisance count. Ritter was lined $50 on each count and was sentenced to 20 days in jail on each of the first two counts and 50 days on the last count, making a total jail sentence of 90 days. The court ordered his place of busi­ ness shut up and the nuisance abated. This is said to be his fourth offense. Ritter declared that in accordance with the order of the court entered when he was previously brought be­ fore the court on a similar charge, he had kept his place of business closed; that a party of automobilists came to his place, on a very cold day amf wished to buy liquor; that he told them he had nothing to sell, but that they finally prevailed upon him to open his place and get them some­ thing to drink to warm them up., Be­ fore leaving, he said, they urged him to allow them to take a bottle with them, to be used in case of emergency. When asked if he received pay for the liquor he said that he did.

The big village show is -now open and three hats have already thrown into the circus ring. Since the lest issue of The Plain- dealer Dr. D. G. Well A and Peter J Freund have announced their willing­ ness to enter the race for president of the village board, while Wm. Sinffis has stepped forward and entered his name as a candidate for the office of village trustee. Both of the candidates for village president are honorable citizens of the village. Both are successful men in *their line of work and both are capable of discharging the duties connected with said office. Both men are diet one of the liveliest campaigns that the village has witnessed in years Each man claims a good following of friends and supporters, who are willing to pull their coats and assist their men thru the skirmishes which always ac­ company the annual village serap. Che disinterested voter will sit back and watch the race in a quiet, unas suming manner, while the real fight ere will occupy the front ranks thru out and will not give up until the cast ballots have been counted on election day. As to the candidates for the trustee­ ship, we are unable to give out any thing definite. Thus far only one man has come out and announced himself publicly, this being Wm. Siiues, whose card will be found on another page of this issue of The Plaindealer. However, we feel safe in saying that two or more candidates will announce themselves in another week. The men whom we have heard mentioned during the week as possible candidates for the trustee offices are as follows Simon Stoffel, J. W^ Freund, Wm. Spencer, Dr. R. G. Chamberlin, Fred Nichels, F. H. Wattles, Wm. Bacon and F. J. Herbes. While we do not look for all these men to make the race, we were given a tip that at least five candidates Will-be out after the three trustee chairs. The candidates have about a month in which to do their canvassing and as the days pass by the battle is sure to wage warmer and the voters will anxiously await the arrival of election day, when the battle of battles will be waged.

Death once more entered the*lrome of one of our most highly respected rural residents last Saturday afternoon, when Claud D. Hutson answered his Master's voice and passed peacefully away. For three years he had been stricken with the disease which brought him to his death and during all this time he was given the very best care at the command of a loving wife, friends and professional skill. A few months ago the family physician suggested an op­ eration. With the hope of recovering his former good health the patient willingly agreed to submit to such and he Tt*as taken to Chicago, where the work was done by one of the best sur­ geons in that city. Shortly after the operation he was brought back home, where for a time it looked as if he was to recover. However, a change for the worse set in and in spite of all efforts to save his life he passed away as pre­ viously stated. Claud D. Hutson wasrborn on the old Hutson homestead, situated about two and one-half miles west of town, on August 16, 1881, being 33 years, <5 months and 11 days of age at the time of his demise. He grew to manhood on the fai^m of his birth and received his early education in the rural school in the vicinity of his home. On March 4, 1903, he was united in marriage to Miss Alice Harrison. Dur- ing the past ten years he has made his home on the C. W. Harrison farm, south of this village. One child was born to them, Anita Lillian, now past four years of age, who, with the be­ reaved wife, is left to mourn. Mr. Hutson has been a man of ex­ cellent life habits and has proven him self worthy of the esteem in which he is held. He earned the respect of all by a worthy life. A hard working man, he was willing to undertake his share of life's toil and this he did until his system had become so weakened that he was forced to give up general activity about the farm. He was good son, a true brother and a loving husband. Besides his wife and daughter, he leaves a grief stricken mother, Mrs Mary Hutson, four brothers, Frank, George and Mark of this village and Benjamin of Woodstock; one sister, Mrs. Fred French, of Ridgefield; also two half brothers, Simon Kelley of Allegan, Mich., and William Kelley of Ringwood, and one half sister, Mrs. Jennie Sherman, of Woodstock. With these bereaved ones a host of relatives and friends join in sympathy and sad­ ness. The funeral services were held from the M. E. church in "this village on Monday afternoon of this week, Rev. Walter E. Eliison performing the last sad rites. His body was laid to rest in the family lot in Woodland cemetery. CARD OK THANKS I wish in this public manner to ex­ tend thanks to the many kind neigh­ bors and friends, who so willingly ex­ tended their assistance during the last illness and after the death of my be­ loved husband. Also do I wish to thank those who assisted at the funer­ al. MRS. ALICE HUTSON.
