Old Settlers' Meeting. CHANCE OF TIME. WAUCONDA, Thursday, Juno 23d. Now tho Time and Place- At a meeting of the Executive Com­ mittee of the Old Settlers' Association of McHenry and Lake Counties, held in this village on Monday last. It was decided to change thefdate of holding the Re-Union at Waucondi to June 23d, at which time arrangements will be made to have one of the biggest Re-Unioiis ever held by the Society. The chairman of the Executive Com­ mittee was instructed to correspond with speakers and an effort will b$ made to get some of the best talent in the State. The citizens of Wauconda will do their part, and will hold a meeting the present week to make suitable arrange­ ments to accommodate all who come in the best of manner. A full programme will be completed and published in our next. The com­ mittee will spare no efforts to make it a day long to he remembered by both old and young settJerj. Aside from the general exercises it Is expected to make arrangements for a Match Game of Base Ball.-a Foot Raice^ and other sports of an interesting character. Look out for the programme next week. DR. A. E. BALDWIN, who has lately located in Woodstock, is. we under­ stand. meeting with good success in his practice, and has an excellent out­ look tor the future. Dr. Baldwin is a young and rising Physician, and his ma?:j- friends in this county are glad to note his gradual but sure progress to fame in his chosen profession. As wc have said before the medical profession received an honorable accession to their number when he settled in the county. He has our best wishes for his future success. \J»y Miss EVA HAOPKRISCH. daughter of ? Phillip llauperisch, has been low with | brain fever the past 'veek, so low in 4 fact that little hopes weie entertained ' of her recovery. But we are happy to state she is now slowly improving.-- . Dr. Fegers is in attendance. THE weather is dry and dusty, and . farmers are beginning to fear for the crops. Unless we get rain verj* soon It will be a serious matter indeed. If • them 's anyone whose prayers will be heard we trust they will no longer de- ay but do their duty. ^WE understand that ou»- Gorman ,'friends in this village contemplate f getting up a Steamboat Excursion, on or about.lune 12th, They intend to charter both boats. We trust they Tfmy hsve a large crowd and a success financially. THE popular craze now is a two cent red stamp and a one-cent blue stamp on a white envelope. This is especially the correct thing w lie re- young ladies and gentle men corres­ pond. The blending of the colors red, white and bin*, means union.

Stoddard. Kid and Lisle Thread Glove* in all colors at Stevens & Sclinorr's. "Nobody knows whit (rouble I have. " This is the favorite strain of the men these beautiful spring days, when all nature Is in its loveliest, and human­ kind should be at its happiest; and would be so but for the house cleaning mania which has seized upon the women and turned homes from the paradise they should be, to the hell upon earth which they are. With bare floors, furniture disordered, and a gen­ eral sloppy, soapy sudsy, vaporous at­ mosphere pervading all things; man longs fur his final home, where house- •leaners ne'er shall penetrate, and where soap-suds shall be known no more. ISAAC WENT WORTH, of this village, is now engaged as Superintendent of of the Brick Works of the Pullman Pal­ ace Car Company, at South Chicago. - He hlis entire charge of the yards, in which we believe they now emplov over 150 men, and are contemplating enlarging it to twice its present capac­ ity. Air. Went worth is' a practical Brick Maker, knows the business in all its minutiae), and with his knowledge of human nature is eminently the right man iu the right place. His many friends in-this place rejoice at his good fortune, and the company can congratulate themselves on being able to secure so good a man for this respon- l^sibie position. ONK of the handiest thirgs tiiat has come under our observation for some time is a hand Pmnp and Sprinkler, to be found at the Hardware store of 0» C. Colby & Co. For cleaning windows sprinkling lawns or gardens, it is one of the finest articles we ever saw. It holds about two pails of water, can he carried with ease, and is cheap. Every family should have one. When pass­ ing ihe store drop in and see it. WE owe an apology to H. Maiman, Wauconda. for not making a elunge in his advert isement this week, but ow­ ing to our hurry it slipped our mind until after the first side of our paper was worked ofl. We shall make the change n. 'Xt week, but iu the mean- advise all who- want i in - «mens»» stock, both ready made and cloths torsingle garments or full suits. You cannot fail to be suited. TWfcNTT PERFORMING KCr.PHANTS. 600 Plumed Horse#!--Lioni and Tigers Loose in the Street*/--A Monster Show Paradi! Forepaugh'R" tremendous " combina­ tion of circus in two rings, menagerie, trained wild beasts, hippodrome, aviary and aquarlnin, is to exhibit af­ ternoon and evening, at Woodstock, Saturday, Tune 11th. On the morning of exhibition day, the entire establishment appears In a grand, free, public procession, which the press elsewhere assert is the most superb, mammoth spectacular display ever seen upon the , streets. An ex­ change before us thus describes the affair: *Forepaugh's show parade should be seen to be appreciated ;noth- ing in the way of street pageants, show parades or public processions has ever been made, that in extent, novelty, and lavish display, could be sompared to this monster and marvelous Jieplay by Forepaugn's great show. The pag>> eant of Lalla Rookh, wherein is seen twenty richly robed elephants, and the beautiful maid of India, personated by Fo^paugh's famous ten thousand dollar beaut}', whose loveliness is said to exceed that of Mrs.. Langtry^ the famous English beauty. Is one of the many novelties seen in this parade. The, lady personates Lalla Rookh, and appears in the pageant, seated in an oriental llowdah, seated upon the back of a kingly elephant; all the attend­ ants of the Court of, Delhi are repre­ sented in this pageant, and the spec­ tacle is really the most beautiful re­ alistic Eastehi pageant ever produced. niFollowing this appears a mile of massive and magnificent cariots, drawn by fully five hundred handsome hor­ ses. The colossal car of the universe, costing 140.000 is the most elaborately constructed and the most grand, im­ posing and unique piece of chariot work ever constructed. A herd of desert dromedaries, droves of Shet­ land ponies, and one hundred Arabian horses all appear in this colossal and costly pageant, and Tigers, Lions and other wild beasts are seen loose in the street, and performed as the procession moves. Three bands of music are stationed, equally distant, along the line and discourse the popular airs of the day. Then, iu addition to a long lir.e of rit»hly robed processionists, there is to he seen Mardirgras masqueraders, and illustrations of the "Komikal Klu- Klux-Klan." . Serpent charmers, steain pianos, jubHee singers, human curios­ ities. wide open dens of Wild beasts, and hundreds of novel and surprising sensations." All railroads sell tickets at reduced rates to and from Wood­ stock on the day Forepaugh's show is there. Get ready for it. CREENWOOOT EDITOR PLAINPKALRK:--Work has commenced on our Bridge and we un­ derstand the Commissioners have de­ cided to put in two bridges instead of one. Our little river therefore will soon be crossable for teams. Mr. Toles informs us that he will soon commence work on his dam and the mill will be in running order and business will assume its usual course. The venerable Pastor of the Baptist -Gliinch is again iu his place looking as time, we would \ summer clothes to call and see his IF you want to buy an Organ do not take the advice of every cheap John dealer iu instruments who comes along, but go to your home dealer, a man that you know, and then you will be sure to get a good Instrument. O. W. Owen is Agent for the best Organs iu the country, and sells them as cheap as a good instrument can be bought anv- where. Remember this and be sure and see him before you purchase, WE would call especial attention to the advertisement, in another place in this paper, of a residence for sa!e by, Asa W. Smith, Woodstock. It is a commodious dwelling, beautifully lo­ cated, with a fine orchard and small fruit of all kinds on the premises, and in short is one of the most desirable residences iu that city. Persons con­ templating purchasing should not fail to go and see It. A CARD.

The pleasant weather was airtight as long as the planting wasn't done, but now What Is wanted ie rain. We want some right away and unless it comes there is going to. be an indignation meeting and a? petition asking Old Probabilities to resign. It's a busy season all around but about the most busy place we have struck is the cheese factory. Mr. Hunt, the Superintendent, who by the way is giving excellent satisfaction to both stock holders and patrons, and his assistant, Mr. Owen, are kept on the move all the time. Under the new management the factory is handling more milk than erer before in its his­ tory. They now take between 7,000 and 8,000 pounds daily, and as every­ thing is in first-class running order the outlook is most promising. Mr. Williams, the dentUt. has moved hib headquarters from Algonquin to Dundee. He will continue, however, to visit Wauconda on the 10th and 25th of each month, as has been his custom. When these dates fall on Saturday or Sunday he comes the following Mon­ day. He says lie is thankful for the patronage Wauconda has given so liberally in the past, that hr tries to please all who yisit him,' and that if his work is not satisfactory he will make it so. The bathing season has come and with It regrets that the barge is not in working order. There is somo talk of trying to float it in season for Old Settlers' Day, and we earnestly hope th-H those interested will see that the project is put through. It Is worth what it costs to give the (lusty, sweaty, work-begrimed Waucoudiaii his Sun­ day morning plunge-iu the cool waters of the Lake. II it cannot be made to go. why not adopt the suggestion that has been put forth 'and tow it out Into deep water to be used as a bathing stand. The "Flower-Queeen" did not come off as announced in last week's PLAIN- DRALKR on acco'int of the absence of Mrs. F. B. Harrison, vhn was suddenly called East to attend the funeral of her sister.

Again the air Is full of rumors con­ cerning the re-organization of the band. Sim said there was to be a meeting to consider the subject last Friday night, but we can't find anyone who was there. Quite a number of the young people got together on Saturday afternoon, and had a picnic iu Cook's Grove, on the north side of the Lake, Of course tliey had a good time. Not much was done at the meeting of the Board Friday evening, besides making arranglTtiients to repair the bridge at the outlet, and to cart more gravel cn to the street. P. S. Swenson is adding another building to his meat market, although he already has one of the largest and best arranged in the county. Theron Oaks met with a severe loss on Saturday bj' the death of one of his horses from sun stroke. On Saturday the post office at tills place received a curious consignment, in the shape of a double harness for parties in Montana. It was done up into a number of packages, weighing four pounds or less, and tho postage on the whole amounted to $5.94. Hill & Barker were the makers. Another of the old settlers has passed away In the person of Mr. James Welch, who died on Friday at the age of 84 years. His funeral, which occurred on Sunday from hi» home, was largely attended by bis many friends. On Friday, 1,49fiJ pounds Avoirdu­ pois gatlMied at the home of Miss Nellie Bangs, and had a genuine, jolly birthday party and reunion combined. It was the birthday of the hostess and the reunion of the girls who attended the academy in this place seven years ago, and previously, most of tliein graduating in *74 and a few in '73. They met about '2 p. M. and after talk­ ing over old times for awhile, they gathered around the organ and sang front the same book which they used as school girls, eacli one singing the solo their instructor taught them at that time. Alter these were finished they sang nrany of tho old songs in concert. Before adjourning they re­ pairer! to Mr, Sweusou's market and had their weights registered. As It will be interesting to many readers of the PLAINDKALER to know the names of these girls who have been together since childhood, and who can remem­ ber singing the songs of freedom dur­ ing the dark days of the war while dressed to represent the different .states, we will give them and as we know that none of the young ladies would object, after each name we *vlll put the weight, as taken hy an eye witness: Mrs. Elder Burchett. 187J; Miss Taggart, 1H4; Mrs. Dr. Butter- field, 133; Miss Nellie Bangs, 125$; Mrs. E. Joslyn, 122; Mrs. C. M. Hill. 114; Mrs. C. Lyon6. 109; Mrs. H. Golding, 117; Mrs. C.' L. Pratt. 103|; Mrs. H. Dixon. 101; Mrs. L. Oaks. 97; Mrs. C. Miller, 83. It would bo wrong to close this account without at least mention­ ing the babies which were present to the number of seven. , Allow us to speak a good word for our enterprising young friend, Davy Gillespie, whose enterprise, in one so youug deserves encouragement. Davy always keeps a nice stock of candies, in which he has a flourishing trade. And now he has opened up Ids tee cream business for the summer with first rate success. The quality of the* product which he dishes up to his customers Is quite faultless. Try it. The trotting match last Saturday, on the McKesson track, between Geo. Eldredge's bay mare and I. P. Rich­ mond's Genoa horse, resulted in a vic­ tory for the latter. After the race Mr. Richmond expressedr ttie belief that liis horse couhl beayany horse in Rh'huiond, barring Ercanbrack's Kirk" wood. This resulted in arrangements for another match in which Geo. Ear­ ring's Richmond Bay is to trot against Mr. Richmond's horse at Geneva Lake, July 4th. The stakes amount to sever­ al hundred dollars--just how much we have not learned. Rev. Mr. Northcutt preached his second sermon at the Congregational Church last Sunday evening. He is a pleasing speaker and holds more en­ lightened views of religion than most of his class. It is a compliment to his preaching that so nany of his congre­ gation here were Liberals. Is gives some ula»u however to one Meth­ odist brother, who remarked, after Mr. Nerthcutt's first sermon, that "those Uni versalists had played a good game on the Congregationallsts by getting that fejjow into their church to preach." Come iu again, dear brother. It won't hurt you to hear a merciful and for­ giving God preached once in a while. The ease with which people are im­ posed upon by itinerant peddlers- Is marvelous. A case in point happened in Richmond hotiong since. One of the traveling fraternity canvassed the village, selling a remarkable soap, ivhicli was warranted to take out grease and paint spots.stains, etc., from the most d:>licate fabrics, without Injury. This remarksble soap cost only 25 cents per cake. It was a poor quality of common soap, bought by the peJdler of one of our Richmond merchants at sixteen cakes for a dollar! The best way is to fight shy of all peddlers who are strangers to you. We have plenty of honorable merchants in town who keep all goods a peddler generally car­ ries and who would clicat you neither through inclination or policy. box LAKE.
