Jfe| A number of young folks of Grays- * lake and vicinity have gotten them- *<• selves into a serious mess, they being Ifirj* charged with turning over some markers in the cemetery at that place. Walter Skinkle.and Hugh Howden, two Richmond young men, were 0. proudly exhibiting a red fox in that village one day recently which they ,J had shot on the William Austin farm M three miles sduth of town. jgg The paving of a four and one-half f-^j^mile stretch of Belvidere road, between the Wankegan city limits and !*• Milwaukee avenue, was completed last , > ^ week.

There 1 6 J. B. Rotnour are ten members in support of Miss DeVoss this season, all of whom have been especially engaged for their respective lines of work. Among those favorably known in McHenry are the comedian "Shorty" Sterling and Mr. Lem Parker, director for Mr. Rotnour for the past two years. The play of "Two Thieves" is a story of love, hatred and trust. It is very vividly tetd and portrayed by an exceptional cast of recognized players. The comedy is flowing in abundance, while the pathos is appealing. For the production of each play all special soenery is carried, making it life like. The vaudeville between acts will be introduced by different members of the cast. Patrons of the Empire may look forward to the very best that Mr. Rotnour has ever presented in McHenry. The price scale is unusually l<*w. Better arrange for your tickets in advance. JULIUS KEG PURCHASES HOME IN MeHBNRY 1 f t . first action in this direction took j>lace v % f there on Wednesday evening of last |, t * week when he caused the arrest of four young men who had appeared , , J there under the influence of liquor, s Three of them hailed from Harvard. Millburn Bros, of Rockford, who have been awarded a large contract S for the paving of route 19 thiju the city of Woodstock, have laid aside paving activities for tile winter months, but will continue the grading r , ^ project. Their contract calls for the construction of twenty miles of pave- 1^7ment, north to the state line, passing (k,'* -- thru the city of Harvard. According to present plans, the \ - Methodist ehurch building at Hebron, §£• , ' which is being moved to the rear of ** "" of the lot it has occupied these many years to make room for a new edifice ^ t to be constructed on the site, is to be &T4 remodeled for use as "a community center. A stage is to be built in the .] south end of the structure and opera IjK chairs installed. The basement wall? I*>.v for the new church are now being put Several contractors are now figuring on the new factory building to be erected at Woodstock for occupancy of a bed factory which has recently been induced to locate in that city. The building, which is to occupy the site of the Eckert house at Madison and Lumber streets, will be of brkk construction, two-stories and 60x126 feet in dimensions. The Holmes Bed company will employ forty people from the start and more later. ft Arbuckle, president of the Harvard Food Products company, which operates a factory at Chemung, is planning on expansion in another year. This year only peas were put up at the plant, but if the expectations of the company's officials are realized next season will see the canning of asparagus,, white beans, green lima beans and pork and beans on quite an extensive scale. The company has rented ji total at 1,200 acres in the Harvard territory. Pres. Arbuckle believes that within three years he will have a most thriving industry at Chemung and that no less than 300 will find employment during the busy season, while a fairly good sized force will be maintained the year round. Julius Keg, operator of a dredging" outfit which has" done considerable work along the banks of Fox river, Pistakee bay and lake and other points thru out this summer resort district, has decided to make this city his permanent home and has purchased the first home to be erected in the Stenger, Covalt and Weber subdivision to this city. The home is located on Elgin road and is modern in every detail. The city's water and sewer improvements will be extended to this new subdivision, thus giving Mr. Keg and those who will purchase there later on all of the conveniences McHenry has to offer. As stated in these columns some time ago, it is the plan of Messrs. C. W. Stenger, F. E. Covalt and John P. Weber to continue the building improvements on their tract until every lot is occupied by a modem home. The next home to be erected will very likely be built to conform with the ideas of prospective buyers. Anyone wishing to own a home and having plans of their own idea will do well to consult with Mr. Stenger, who will, at any time, be pleased to go over the matter.

' ^ SECOND NUMBER OF LYCEUM SBCO^p NUMBER OF LYCEUM TO BE HELD HERE FRIDAY , Mr. and Mrs. Glen Wells hav* scored tremendous successes by the presentation of a complete two or three-act play as a part of their Lyceum programs. They have been particularly fortunate in having written exclusively for them by Herbert Thomas, the eminent English playwright, who wrote the melodramatic success, "Under Orders," two plays which are sure-fire Lyceum "hits." One of these Is "Atonement," a three-act drama, a&d the other, "The Come Back," written In two acts. Wherever these plays have been given by Mr. and Mrs. Wells they have Invariably been hailed with the greatest enthusiasm, not only because of their remarkable intrinsic interest, but also for the splendid .manner In which they are presented. Mr. and Mrs. Wells have had fifteen years' successful experience together as Lyceum entertainers. They are both excellent In* terpreters of dramatic sketches and BOND W CARRY AT SPECIAL CITY II. C* KLEIN OPPOSES WM. G. ^CHRBOW FOR OFFICE OF CITY CLERK The city of McHenry, keeping pace with the progressive spirit which it has displayed during the past year or more, is going to be given an up*to- the-minute fire truck and apparatus together with a shelter for same, and will also hare her streets improved. This became an established faet on Tuesday evening of tills week after the ballots had been counted. Simul taneously with the voting in of these improvements came the re-election of all of the officials who have served this municipality since the beginning of the fiscal year last May. With but one exception, all of the old officials were returned without opposition, the one exception being for the office of city clerk, in which N. C. Klein opposed Wm. G. Schreiner. Very few of the voters were aware that a contest for this office was to be waged until the evening prior to the election, when a rumor was circulated that Mr. Klein would be a candidate. A total of 321 votes were cast, less than one-half of the total piled up at last spring's election, vtwn 461 voters visited the polls. The first issue, that of bonding the city to provide funds for the improvement and maintenance of our streets, carried by twenty-one votes, while the second proposition, which provided for fire apparatus, won out by fifty-two votes. The vote on the candidates (or office resulted as follows: f For Maper David G. Wells *.212 For AMmn Peter Doherty . 182 John R. Knox .......... .173 Albert Krause .180 Richard I.

The Schaefer, local contractor and builder, has been awarded contracts for the construction of two new summer homes in the Jacob Weingart j ermei H. subdivision, located on the east side, Henry Weber, Jacob Schaefer, Henry of Fox river, just north of the Johnsburg bridke and known as Riverview Park. One of the two homes will be of brick construction and will be one of the finest along Fox river when completed. The owner of the new subdivision has caused a channel to be dug from the river to the lots, which lie a short distance from the river front, and in order to attract only the desirable class of resorters he has protected himself with such restrictions as to the class at people who will eventually purchase these lots as well as to the sort of homes to be constructed and he hopes some day to be able to point with pride to Riverview Park as one of the finest subdivisions along our beautiful stream. BALLOON DANCE AT / . RINGWOOD NEXT WEEK A real novelty is going to be "sprung" on the patrons of Smith's hall, Ringwood, on Wednesday evening of next week in the way of a balloon dance. Those in charge of the coming event are making quite extensive Schaefer, Wm. Klapperieh, John Stock. Card party eommittee--Mrs. Bap* bara Krause, chairman; Mrs. Helen Bohr, Mrs. Emma Freund and Mrs. Carrie Justen., s Ladies' stand--Mrs. Josephine Heiprelude consists of duets, soprano and baritone solos. Opera arias give* in costume are featured. If adequate stage facilities are not available, or If specially requested to do so, Mr. and Mrs. Wells will present a miscellaneous program of leadings and Bongs instead of the prelude and play. Mr. and Mrs. Wells constitute on* of the very best two-person companies on the Lyceum platform. They have made the acting of plays with a two-person cast an art, and have built for themselves a reputation of which they may be justly proud. ENTERTAINED IN HONOR • OF MRS. A. MUCKLER Rehearsals are now under way for the musical comedy , "All Aboard," which is to be staged here under the auspices of the McHenry post, American Legion, on Friday and Saturday nights of next week, Nov. 30 and Dec. 1. ' The show is to be staged by local talent and, judging from the cast that has been selected to carry the principal roles, the theatre-going public of this community is in for a real treat. Misses Dorothy Knox and Blanche Meyers will carry the leading roles for the ladies, playing respectively "Dorothy Brndy" and "Beatrice Sloan." Opposite the two leads will be Leo Heimer and William Bickler, the former as "Johnny Thomas" and the latter carrying the role of "Billy Brady," Dorothy's Brother. Richard Stenger, who has appeared on a number of different occasions before McHenry audiences, has been assigned the role of "Alexander C. Phrome," the blackface comedy part of the show, while Robert Green will appear as "Captain Kid" of the S. S. Florida. Mildred and Eleanor Klein have strong supporting roles as "Jennie," a Swedish stewardess, and Mrs. Sloan, Beatrice's mother, Al. Barbian will be an eccentric sailor. There will also be a supporting cast of fifty chorus girls and boys, picked from students at the McHenry community high school. A musical comedy, to be a genuine hit, must possess two things. First, good, interesting plot, and second, a tuneful, musical score. Without these a show cannot be a success, but in "All Aboard," which will be given at St. Patrick's hall on the two evening as mentioned above, will be found the above requirements and more. The show is from the pen of the late Junie McGreese, who wrote more than a hundred professional stage successes, and proved to be one of the largest Broadway hits over produced. Too much cannot be said of the pretty musical score, for not since the good old days of the "Merry Widow" has anything been written that would ITEMS OFJflEREST AS PICKED UP BY PUUHEUEk REPORTERS DURING Wffl i&tSgt at A- V; WHAT PEOPLE ABB DOING THIS VILLAGE AND ATE VICINITY A big selection of Christmas V and booklets just leeehmd.

The cost of the shelter, it is estimated, will be approximately $2,000, thus leaving available something like $5,000 for the purchase of the fire apparatus.

One of the big tasks which now confronts the board is that df dividing the city into wards. This, according to our understanding, must be done between now and the next general election next spring. A number of suggestions on this question have already been offered, we are told, but it will probably be some time before a d.efinite conclusion along these lines will have been reached. It has been said that the order of things will be for the mayor to appoint a committee of two men to take up a census of the city and therefrom propose some division which will be as near equal as it will be possible to make same.
