A. J. Hopkins, the popular con gKMman for thia district, has withdraw!) from the speakership race in favor of Congressman D B. Henderson* of Iowa. Mr. Hopkins did this after consulting with the Illinois delegation, and beicg fally convinced that by retiring from the field he would practically make the nomination of Congressman Henderson certain. By this act Congressman Hopkins showed his superb ability as a states­ man and his unselfish motives as a m»in. Illinois, and more especially the eighth congressional district, regret that as able a man as Congressman Hopkins could not be awarded this high honor, M his abilities were such as made hiai a most acceptable .candidate. In with­ drawing he says in pait: "My colleagues and I recognise the great responsibilities devolving on the LVItb congress, and the necessity for perfect harmony in the republican party. To farther prolong my candidacy, whether successful or unsacessful, it is thought might result in embarrassment to the successful candidate in the proper administration of his great office. Be­ lieving, as I do. that my retirement from the speaker ship race at this time will simplify the situation and conduce to harmony in the party with consequent best result to the whole country, I have, with the approval of the Illinios dela- gation, decided to withdraw from the speakership contest." To Utilises Fog1 A California man has suggested the idea that someone exercise inventive genius enough to ntilizi fog. He says that in California there are vast areas of valuable land where the water supply is insufficient. Nature has endeavored to correct this by sending in heavy fo«s laden with moisture, and it only remains for the ingenuity of man to utiliza this. These fogs generally come in from the ocean at night during the dry summer months, when most needed, but are dis­ sipated early in the morning by the sun. "Here is ample moisture brought to our very doors if we could but discover some simple and practicle method of conduct­ ing or precipitating it on a large scale," says he in conclusion. IT is fa'd Chicago consum?S 4,000, 0,000,000 pounds of ice in a year, or 2,000 for every inhabitant. It is further estimated that if all the ice used in Chi­ cago was placed in one block it would measure 350 feet wi Je and 500 feet long and higher than the Masonic Temple. Then, too. Chicago eats more strawberries to the person than any other city in the world. COCXD<XXXO<X>DCKDCXXX)bOOCXXXX) PROBATE COURT NEWS 8 Old Settlers' Day. There is to be an old settlers' day at the county fair this year and Secretary Wright is desirous of learning who the old pioneers are. THE P LAINDEALER can furnish him-a few who are now residents of McHenry. Geo. Gage and wife. Hon. Geo. Gage can lay claim to being one of the early pioneers of ^McHenry county. While he lived in Lake county for twelve years of his early resi­ dency in Illinois, still Lake county was ait that time a part of McHenry county and was later divided and set off by it­ self. He settled in Lake county in 1835 and in 1847 he moved to Nunda town­ ship and after remaining there a time he came to McHenry. ELM. McOmber has been a resident of McHenry since 1837-- sixty-two years. The list of pioneers BOW living in McHenry county, who have resided here sixty-two years is small one and Mr. McOmber can be counted among them. The other pio­ neers are: Jacob Story, who has been a resident of McHenry since Dec. 10,1837 Dr. H. T. Brown, 1>37. There are several others who have been pioneer residents of McHenry township, but we are not able to give them now. THE 'PLAINDEALER expects to prepare a list of the pioneer residents of Mc Henry coun­ ty and publish it in a latter issue. PROBATE NEWS. Estate of C P Lillibridpe.

Come and see for youreell at MILO HOWE'S, TO RULE THE WORLD. It Is a Costly Job and Demands an Outlay of $500,000,000 a Month. Every time the clock ticks, a sum of $100 is spent on the costly task of gov­ erning the world, and every month ab­ sorbs $500,000,000. If it were possible for relays of cash­ iers, in bands of tliirty-oight, to pay over the requisite $5 gold pieces, at the late of one a second, night and day, without a second's intermission, it would take them almost a year to keep the world's governments supplied with the necessary funds for the year. In this time they would have paid over the counter no less than 9,000 tons of gold. These millions of coins would equal in weight the entire population of many large towns of the United States. If, to economize labor, the world's bill were paid in $5 bills, these notes, ar­ ranged six deep, would make a "waist­ band" for the earth at the equator. Germany spends more than any other Nation for governing purposes. Russia ranks second, France third and Great Britain fourth. Germany, Russia, France and Great Britain spend exactly as much as the rest of the world on government. Servia is the least costly kingdom. While Great Britain ranks fourth among costly governments, she ranks third in the amount of taxes she exacts from her subjects. Her taxes amount to a contribution of Is a week By every man, woman and child in the United Kingdom. Ger many, however, which again heads the list, calls for Is 0%d a week from (or rather for) each inhabitant. At the bottom of the list of taxpayers come the Russian, Bulgarian, Servian and Swiss. To clear the world of debt it would be necessary to mortgage England, Ire­ land and Scotland, with all their prop, erty of every kind, to almost exactly half its value of £12,250,000,000. SMOKERS!

This is known as a portable folding boat and kas the promise of coming to the front. The boat is made in four parts, the end flections being removable. The two middle sections are hinged together so they may be folded together, one section being used as a cover for the other. The two end sections are detachably con­ nected by both with the middle sections, so that they may be placed within the middle sections when not in use. In order to lock the middle sections to­ gether when they are extended, bolts are used, which are provided wlih washers to prevent leakage. When the four sections are in position and bolted together, a complete boat is formed, having pointed ends constituting bouyant air chambers. The end sections, when not in use, are placed within the middle section, and serve as storage compartments for pro- visions.

Armour, of Chi­ cago, that he was not christened Philip at all. He was named after his father, Danforth Armour. Mr. Armour is quoted as giving this explanation re­ cently of how he gdt the name of Philip: "I was named Phil after a col­ ored man who lived in. our neighbor­ hood and was the terror of all the boys. The ncinc of the fellow was Phil Mor­ gan, and he was up to all sorts of capers, and I suppose because I was so full of pranks myself the boys called me Phil, too. The 'D' in my name stands for Danforth. That was my father's name. • But the boys insisted on calling me Phil, and Phil I re­ mained. my mother finally consenting to call me Philip D. Armour."
