" We.fi nd in a special to ttie Chicago Recordol Tuesday morning the following account of a murder and suicide, which occurred near Woodstock on Monday forenoon: . 'Win. W. Ellsworth, the famous breed- er<Sf Poland-China hogs, resided on his farm four miles west of Woodstock. He w as of an eccentric disposition and very quick tempered. For some time past he had been having all kinds of trouble with his hired man, named Geo. Filweberr Early Monday morning the old trouble broke out afresh and Ellsworth became enraged at something Filweber had done and went into the house. This wasf about!1 o'clock. Aboul forty-five min­ utes afterward Filweber started from the barn for the house to prepare for dinner He had just reached the yard that sepa­ rates the bahiiroin the house when Ells­ worth, who was standing in the door with a revolver in his hand, shot at him four times, each shot taking effect. Then seizing a shotgun and walking to where the body lay Ellsworth deliberately dis­ charged both barrels into the already riddled carcass. Death had been instan­ taneous. - • "After shooting Filweber Ellsworth re­ loaded his gun with fine shot, stepped up close to where the body lay/placed the stock of his gun on the ground, looked into the barrel and pulled the trigger. The charge carried away the top of his head. The only witnesses of the murder and suicide were two boys who were standing near the fence on their way home from school, -The family and neighbors were aroused by the reports and came flocking to the scene. Ells­ worth's family connections are of the best and he was known far and wide, his principal fault being his terrible temper. He leaves a widow and three grown-up sons." Froin vhe Waukegan Gazelle, ' DEATH OF E. L. HTJSON. Death has again visited our' town. This time it has taken a friend and neighbor,' E. L. Huson. He has been in ratht>r poor health the past two years. A week ago he suddenly grew worse and in a few days the tie was broken, father was gone. He was resigned, cheerful and conscious until the very last moment. The funeral service was held Tuesday afternoon in the M. E. Church, conducted by Rev. Caldwell. The Masonic fraternity were present from Wauconda, McHenry and Grays Lak&„„, Mr. Lee, of Libertyville, took charge of this service with much "fcreditrto the order. A large concourse of friends and neighbors came to pay their last tribute of respect to a friend and brother. Many relatives from a distance were present. The Wauconda choir of the Baptist Church rendered their service at the house church and cemetery. Elijah Lafayette Huson, born in Stark- ey, Yates Co., New York,' Sept. 14,1827. Died in Yolo, 111., April 20th, 1895. Mafried, February 15th, 1857, to Miss Laura M. Mackey, in Condor, N. -JF. Came to Volo in 1845, where he resided up to the time of his death, a period of 50 years. A widow, two sons, three daughters, five grandchildren, and two sinters survive him and mourn their loss. He was the last cf seveu brothers, six of whom attained manhood. He obeyed the commands of the Savior and strictly adhered to the teachings of the Bibl». He was a thoroughly conscientious man, a kind and loving husband and father. He was attached to his home, and al­ ways aimed to make it the most happy and enjoyable place on earth. He was highly respected as a neighbor and cit­ izen. To know him was to honor and respect him. He has gone to his reward, let us emulate his virtues. PUBLIC SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT.

Brains vs. Luck, Every mechanic, says the Sanitary Plumber, can call to mind certain men in his particular line of business who seem to succeed with little effort in undertak­ ings where others fail. This class of men are usually spoken of by their friends as being lucky; as having natural talent; as being to the manner born, etc. None know the fallacy of these popular suppo­ sitions so well, however, as do the suc­ cessful men themselves^ The cases are rare where successful men would not have been equally successful in lines other than those they follow, because energy is the power that bridges difficulties. Brains arc certainly an important factor and while brains cannot be purchased, they can be . developed by study and practice, but with the largest equipment of brains success does not follow unless there be application, industry and energy. On the other hand, industry LIST of letters remaining uncalled f^r in the P. O. at McHenry, 111., on the 1st day of May, 1895. Miss Alma Wells, Frank B. Orvis, Enos Colleg, L.H.Davis.

" The faculty con­ sists of two professors, the founder, L. H. Bailey, and his wife, who occupy a small railed off space near the door. The students, of whom there are ten, occupy the center of the big room. The subjects, as a rule, are qm er look­ ing " objects." They are gentlemen of the road. The, barber college is a god­ send to them, for it saves beer money. Every morning one of the students goes out with a handful of small cards upon which is printed: "Free haircut and shave 1 From 8 to 5 o'clock every day. White men only. Come and bring your friends.

See?" Mrs. Bailey i's the instructor. She is a bright little woman, with a mission.
