KUTY EVENT AT SANATOWW MI ED AND PRANK KAIB. IN MARRIAGE QQAKTTX OF A CDFTOTY - PLAUVMAIJMI «r YEARS ACO P. G. SCHREINER TtatMS OF «owciumoNi nc Thursday, July 1* tr**- ^ -r^-*^ ̂ sTOif PLAINBEALER, KM? pan or ronn MSIDWI PAM8I AWAY *IV AT WtUm-TB ' We herewith reproduce an obituary ft Dr. Childs, which appeared in last week's issue of the Wilmette paper. Dr. Childs at one time practised medi­ cine in McHenry and will be iavorabiy remembered by quite-a number of our older residents: [The Lake Shore News, June T5] "Another old resident of the village tMte passed away. On Monday of this week Dr. Asabel Sherman Childs died at his home, 1137 Central avenue. He wat born in Moretown, Vt.5 on May 6, 1843, The surviving members of the family are his wife and two children, Dr. Ralph S. Childs of Winnetka and Miss Myrtle Childs of Wilmette. Two Children are dead. Dr. Childs served thru the Civil war in Company C of the Fourteenth Regi­ ment, Wisconsin volunteer infantry. He was mustered out at the end of the fir as a captain. During his four yean of service he. was in fourteen of the great battles, among them being the battles of Shiloh, Corinth, Mobile, twH the siege of Vicksburg. In the early stages of the siege of Vioksburg an attempt was made to take the forts by storm. Mr. Childs, who was then the color-bearer of the regiment, and two others were the only ones to reach the crest of the fortification. This episode of the bloody struggle has been portrayed in the great cyclorama of the siege of Vicksburg. Dr. Childs' war stories were always interesting but it generally took considerable urg­ ing to get him to relate his exper- ICDoea. It was after the ok»e of the war that he took up the study of medicine. This profession he had followed since that time, having been an earnest believer and a practitioner in the principles of homeopathic medicine. It was also at the close of the war when he married Harriet A. Hamilton at Omro, Wis. Dr. Childs has been a member of the Masonic lodge for many years, be­ ing a charter member of Omro (Wis.) Lodge No. 168, A. F. A A. M. He was probably the oldest Mason, in point of years of membership, in the village. He was also a charter member of the Grove City Camp of the Modern Wood­ men of America. The funqpal was held at the family residence, 1137 Central avenue, on Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock. The services were in charge of Wilmette Lodge No. 931, A. P. & A. M. The body was taken to Graceland cemetery, Chicago, for cremation. The ashes will finally repose in the family burial lot in Omro, Wis.

We learn of a number of horses in this vicinity that died from the effects of the heat last week. We learn that a fine nine-pound girl arrived at the home of Jos. E. Cristgr, Ringwood, on Monday evening. A. J. Diokerson, who is employed at the Oatman factory in this village, has moyed into the Mrs. L. A. Clark house. The second meeting of the McHenry Horse sale association will be held at the Riverside House, McHenry, 111., Thursday, July 10, 1880. The preparations for the 4th of July parties at both the Riverside and Par­ ker Houses are fully completed and the dancing public can rest assured of a good old fashioned time. Crystal Lake is to have a regular old fashioned 4th of July celebration. It will be held in Crow's grove, on the banks of Crystal lake, and the pro­ gram presented is a good one. We know of no pleasaater place to spend the 4th than at Crystal Lake. A game of baseball between the McHenry and Wauoonda clubs has been'- arranged for July 4th and will take place at Gage's driving park in this village. These clubs are very evenly matched and, as they play for a cash prize, a very exciting and interesting game may be expected. Mrs. T. D. Murphy, wife of Judge Murphy, who occupied the bench of the circuit judge for twenty-four years in this judicial district, was buried at Woodstock Monday and her remains were laid beside the judge, who died about a year and a half ago. Mrs. Murphy was one of the most prominent ladies in McHenry oounty for many years. Married, at Elgin, 111., on Wednes­ day, June 25, 1890, by Rev. W. O. Sheppard, Chas. A. Going of Chicago and Miss Mary Curry of Fort Hill, Lake oounty.

Carpenter, 29..Elkader, Iowa Marie Louise Seward, 31 Marengo MARENGO MAN AM INVENTOR Marengo Republican-News: T. G. Ross is the inventor of an adjustable iron shingling bracket that will likely be in demand by carpenters and shinglers. It is simple of construction and adjustable to any pitch. The weight of the scaffold board which it supports imbeds its prongs into the shingles and it holds secure, even un­ der light pressure. It is but an in­ stant's work to shift position. This feature, the saving of time, is an ad­ vantage, but there is also another con­ sideration, and that is that no nails have to be driven into the roof as is the case with the supports now in use, thus avoiding all possibility of leaks from this source. In working out this invention Jtr. Ross has had the assis­ tance of B. E. Bright and by the two the bracket haB been given a good try out with satisfactory results. A pat­ ent on the article has been obtained. (Oontributedl Miss Hermine Fried, who has been with the sanatorium since its very be­ ginning, and who is ^widely known among McHenry people, was married to Mr. Frank Priuril of Chicago last Thursday. The marriage was quite an event at the otherwise quiet health resort. In the morning the bridal party, with their witnesses, drove to Woodstock in one of Overton's big touring- cars and were united in marriage at the city hall by Justice of the Peace Emil Ar­ nold. On their return trip the couple stopped at Frank Schnabel's studio to have their picture taken in remem­ brance of this important event. Upou their arrival home they were greeted by numerous friends from Chi­ cago and McHenry, who had come to witness and celebrate this most event­ ful day in Miss FriedPs life. Many touching and humorous toasts were made to the newlyweds during the elaborate dinner, which was served in the evening. ' Max E. Peltzer, the idol of musical Chicago, was in his happiest mood and in his masterly way played the Second Hungarian Rhapsodic by Liszt and sev­ eral Chopin mazurkas, with which he caused such a sensation at Crown Point during the last winter. The humorous songs and speeches were too numerous to mention. Leslie Norager made a great hit with his recitation, "The Four Legged Chicken," so did Emil Lasch with his little German song, "Giw mi mal de Kuemmelpulle her." The time after dinner was devoted to dancing, for which Mr. Peltzer and Leslie Norager furnished the music and in which both the young and old people took part. A beautiful minuet, which had been arranged by Ludwig Kaeuffl with his artistic eye, made & deep impression on all who were pres­ ent. The time passed quickly with frolics, music and dancing and it was not until the early morning when the party broke up. The happy and jolly wed­ ding will not be easily forgotten. Health and happiness to young Mrs. Prasil and her lovable husbanal RETORT OP TREA8. OP ATHLETIC ABM. EXPENDITURES Lime for foot ball field I Wilbur Lumber Co., lumber F. Bonslett, telephone calls E.

There are hundreds of delightful out­ ing places located on the direct lines of the Chicago & North Western Ry., any one of which is ideal for summer vacation outings. A week or two in this lake-dotted, balsam ladened region fishing, sailing and tramping, will pro­ vide the rest and relaxation everyone must have at least' once a year. The Great North Woods, where the air is keen and tingles with the scent of the pine and where a thousand sparkling lakes and swiftly flowing streams teen- ing with gamy fish can be reached comfortably on the Chicago & North Western Ry.

SANE OLD STORY For the fourth time in as many years the local printer will be stuck up for the printing done in connection with the McHenry Entertainment course. With no funds on hand the printing bill is very likely to go unpaid. How­ ever, the committee which guaranteed the money for the Lyceum bureau may go down in their pockets and square up with the printer. Let's hope so, for we are sick and tired of standhaf^ese losses alone. LOTS GOING OP Notice is hereby given that the price of lots in Woodland cemetery have been raised. The $12 and #15 lots are raised to $15, $20 and $25. All those wishing lots should get them as soon as possible as it is only a matter of time before the prices will be raised again. J. C.
