WE learn that the barn on the farm of ' James Neville, near Wauconda, together Utth its entire contents, of hay, grain and machinery, and a number of stacks of grain near by, were totally destroyed fire one day last week.

FOSTER, the weather prophet^says that irmera should tnanage their' work so as rto crib their corn early, for otherwise they will loose lots of it by a very early winter and great snow storms.

THE man who stops his paper because something has appeared in itscolumns of frhich he does not Approve, and does it with an air of regret that it is necessary to drive the publishers into bankruptcy, reminds us of the train dispatcher who re­ quested an increase of salary and threat­ ened to quit if he did not get it. The Superintendent replied to his request by relating a story: "When I was a young man," said he, "I once did as you are doing--told the superintendent of the road what you have told me. He refused my demand and I quit; and, would you believe it? That darned old road is run­ ning yet!" SOME people are apt to censure the postal service for seeming delays in their correspondence which they would not do if the causes were understood. Great care should be exercised in addressing letters, as many fail to reach their desti­ nation and consequently find their way to the dead letter office through imper­ fect addresses. Write plainly the name of the town and State, adding the name of the county if the place is small. Put the stamp on the upper right hand corner and the address low enough so that it will not be marred by the postmark. Of the millions of pieces of mail handled in the United States ther|is . error in thirty-five hundred,. JAMES CROW, of Crystal Lake, who takes great pride in the agricultural re- fsources of McHenry county, has been ap­ pointed a special commissioner for the World's Columbian Exposition in Chica­ go in 1893.J His duty is the collection of epecTmeliff'bf different kinds of grain pro­ duced from the soil of this county, such as wheat, rye, barley, corn and oats, and he predicts that McHenry county will make an exhibit in this line which will not be excelled by any county In Illinois, and he feels sure that this can be done if farmers take proper interest in the mat­ ter. With this end in view he requests us to ask the farmers to leave their speci­ mens at the drug store of A. S. Wright, Woodstock, in quantity of three quarts each of small grain and six ears of corn. If the farmers co-operate cordially with Mr. Crow in his official capacity the re­ sult is bound to be highly satisfactory. --Woodstock Sentinel. The Chicago Xxposittan.

The Races. | The Races at the Matinee on the Driv­ ing Park, on Friday, were closely eon- [tested, and very iuterosling throughout. In the 2:45 class "Von Leer," owned by E. J. Hauly, of this village, took the race in three straight heats, lowering bis rec­ ord to 2:43%. He is one of the finest young horses, in this section. He was sired by "George O." and gives promise of great speed. The 3:00 Class was won by "Gen. Sars- field," owned in Hebron, four heats being trotted, "Riley," owned by Cropley, of Richmond, taking first heat. Best time, 2:40*. The Green Race was won by "Maud H." in three strnighV heats. Jiest time 3:02. The Mat<h Itnnning Race, which wns sandwiched in between the last two races, between "Kitly G." and a horse from Lakecountywas not as satisfactory as it would have been had the Lake county horse run, but it was found impossible to start him after the first heat, for which no one was to blame but the horse him­ self. But we wish right here to say that the managers of the Driving Park and the Matinee had nothing to do with thiB race, it being strictly a private matter between the owners of the horses, and therefore they were in no way responsible lor it. The Race was decided strictly according to the Rules for Running Races. Had the other horse run it probably would have been different. School Se-Unlon. < f The M. E. Church at Ringwood was the scene of a very pleasant reunion on Sat­ urday evening of last week, the event be ing a gathering ol many of the past students and present pupils of the Ring- wood School to do I honor to Mr. Nickle who so. long conducted thefichopl at that place. JMr. Nickle washed to believe' that an entertainment was to be held on the above named evening, aftd that his pres­ ence was desired. His surprise, therefore, was complete. He found an entertain­ ment that caused his countenance to al­ ternate in smiles and tears as he listened to the school reminiscences related by his old students. There were present from a distance many of his old pupils, some who show their years almost as old as himself. At the close of the address-mak­ ing he was presented with a handsome book case and a check for about forty dollars, as a token of the esteem in which he is yet held by his many old students. Mr. Nickle made a brief address appro­ priate for the occasion, and then the gathering being dismissed, a general handshaking was next in order, and all went home feeling much pleased with the evening's good work. A more extended notice will appear next week. Booki at Auction.
