THE Depot, in this village was brok­ en into on Saturday night last, and several express packages broken open and goods taken to the value of per­ haps 9100. Entrance was effected by cutting out a window on the south end of the depot, the office was ransacked, probably looking for money, which, not finding, the thief or thieves turned their jittentloii to the express bundles. A package of clothing for Henry Rog­ ers, Volo, was taken, a package con­ taining a coat and vest belonging to Frank Kern, an employee of this office, and a lot of cigars belonging to Geo. W. Besley and Jos. Wiedemann. On Monday a part of the goods, in a dam­ aged condition, aud an empty cigar box were found in a pile of old ties down the road towards Nunda. It was probably the work of tramps, as sev­ eral were seen around here the day be­ fore^ FROM a Yankton, Dakota paper, of tlie date of July 10th, we get the par­ ticulars of an almost fatal accident which happened to Mrs. Cravens, wife of Dr. J. W. Cravens, a former resi­ dent of McHenry. The following is the account of the accident in full. DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.--AS Mrs. Dr. Cravens was eroding Third street on'her »vay to the post office, about uMie o'clock last evening. she was run against by a frightened cow who was being hotly pursued by a dog. and thrown to the ground with such vio­ ls nee as to render her completely sense­ less. She was observed by a gentleman named Lane, lying In tlie street, and carried to Weber's drug store. Her face was covered with blood ami dirt to such an extent that Iter features were not recognizable. The doctor bathed her face and applied restora­ tives, but with little effect. Dr. Cra­ vens was Inimedialtly sent for and at midnight the lady, still unconscious was placed upon a cot. and carried home. Her condition to day is ex­ tremely critical aud apprehensions of serious complications are entertained. In addition to injuries ivlilch resulted from the violence of her fall, it is believed the heavy foot of the' animal sfrui'k her in the face. Drs. Van Vel- A>r, Etter, Miller and Turkopp were in council this uiofuiug. and ursrently recommended to the many friends of the lady, that they postpone their calls for the present, as the utmost quiet is invaluable aud is one of the first con­ ditions imposed. The physicians have not determined the seat of tlie inju­ ries. but fears arc entertained that the most serious hurts have not }*«t been disclosed. This intelligence will carry a shock to nearly every household in the city--as the injured lady is warmly esteemed aud widely acquainted. Five o'clock p M.--Intelligence from the bedside is to tlie effect that there has been hardly a perceptable change during the day--ami nothing has oc- cured to rtnder the situation more dis­ couraging. % From the brother of Mrs. Cravens, Henry Colby, of this village, we learn that he has received a letter of a later date than the above which states that Mrs. Cravens is much better and that hopel are entertained of her recovery. PURSUANT to a call, members of the old 95th Regiment Illinois Volunteer Infantry met in the city of Woodstock on Saturday, July 15th,Col.

SHORT BIOGRAPHICAL 8KETCHKS, Qf Prominent Members of the Sonfh- worthfflennon Combination, in JSazy Lesson# for New Beginners. NO. 7. j I will call your attention to-night, my *«>n, to tlie Abstractor. What is an abstractor? Au abstractor, my son. Is » perton who sometimes takes, or abstracts things that don't belong to him. but not so in tlii* case. This Abstractor, my child, furnishes abstracts of title to real estate, situated in this county. What else does he do? Lately, my boy, his time has been almost entirely taken up In looking after the interests of the Southworth- glennoti Combination. ' s What did he do? A ] - Well, you see. my jon, the editor whom I told you ahouvuiat can't even write au estray notice, had to get up an "Amateur Associated" editorial corps and the Abstractor was placed at the head of it. What kind of pieces did he write? When they wanted to print" some­ thing very brilliant and real cunning,- the Abstractor was the man who did the business. And then again, my boy, •fter the Combination had seduced a heretofore honest and confiding old granger, (politically I mean, my son,) they wanted liini to put a piece In the paper, and the honest old grand grang­ er, not being used to writing pieces for the P»MT, the Abstractor had to write Iflw him, and lie, thinking it was all/right, signed it without read- it a good piece?' Should say that It was rather thin, my child, and tailed to create the sen­ sation with the readers of the "leading paper'* that the combination expected. Had the Abstractor ever been a can­ didate for my office in this county? Yes, my, boy. lie has been a candi­ date twice during the past six years, and voted for himself the tim time he ever voted the Republican ticket. Wasn't he a Republican before that? • NOt if the Old Coon of Marengo told the truth, for he said they let him into the Republican party six months ou probation, and then put his name on the tlckct for office. Was lie elected? Yes, ,ny son. but his own town went back on him. and his opponent on tlie Democratic ticket got more vofes than he did. and a man who had been a Re­ publican ever since the party started, got more votes than both put together. He was also a candidate two years ago with no Opposition, but near the close of the campaign he took an active part in behalf «f a man who imagined that he was ticketed right straight through to Congress, hut it didn't tuke this man but two days to find that his ticket was n. g., and the Abstractor found that he was in the wrong boat and likely to run onto opposition, and then didn't he get down aud beg that they should keep the opposition out of his way. and said if they would, that he would remember hls'lrfeudtf hereafter. Diil lie ilo so ? Yes, my hopeful, he remembered them by 6rating during the last cam­ paign to a m^n in Algonquin that tliey were made up of the dregs and sourn of society. Was the Abstractor a candidate at the last convention ? No, my child. Out he has commenced to fet up the pins to run for an office in two years from now. for he remark­ ed A few days ago that "lie would give tliein due notice that they could not beat him for they could not do it in 1876, and they could bring a good deal more agalr.st him then than they can now." (And I suppose !t will be be­ cause he will be a Republican so much longer.) He used a good many awful naughty words which are not fit for your ears, my boy. What kind of a man Is the Abstract­ or? He is a very nice man. my child, but he says that sometimes his temper gets the better of him, and there is none to dispute It. He is also a very smooth man to your face, but when 3 'our back is turned, your ears are liable to burn. Did the Abstractor go to the war? Yes, my sou, he tooted a horn for about eight months, but he uever toted a ninsket. IIow was that ? He belonged to a brigade band that was mustered out of tlie service. We have had a very long lesson to-night, my son, and you have been a very at­ tentive boy. Now we will aro to b«d. A Welcome Visitor.

Repairing and painting ||$ roof of the school house is being dell by W. W. Kennedy, Mrs. Geo. Pratt and daughter Edith, of Elgin, are visiting friends in tills city. The pickle growers are moving the faetjpry to a point nearer the railroad, and very close to the situation of Mur­ phy & Frame's factory. The circus Is coining, and it Is to be Cole.s Biggest Show'on Earth. There are only twenty-two of such now trav­ eling in the United States. Ths date is August 14th. M. R. Richards and Frank Kennedy, both employees of the Chicago post- office, will rest and recruit up a little in Woodstock aud vicinity, during a short vacation from their labors. Dr. Baldwin and wife have gone to Toulon, III..'to visit old friends and former patrons. The Doetor will take a much needed rest, and be absent from two to four week*, when he will return to settle up and pack up, reedy for fi­ nal moving away. A suit wis brought before Esq. Bald­ win last week, in which Eugene Grov­ er was the plaintifi, and one McCue de­ fendant. Grover sued for damages to fences and other property, while Mc­ Cue lived upon his farm. Judgment rendered for the plaintiff to the amount of $7.00. A. E. Bournis appeared fos plaintiff, aud C. P. Barnes for defend­ ant, & Another of Woodstock's residents has passed tlie river of death. Mr. A. P. llayner died after a long illness,last Sunday morning, at his late residence. Mr. Hay nor was a man highly respect­ ed and esteemed by his neighbors and miuterohs friends. He has lived in Woodstock many ycare, and by his 'de­ mise we lose an upright, honest and christian gentlemen. The family of the deceased have tlie sympathy of tills community in this sad hour. Dr. A F.. Baldwin has sold his hand­ some residence on Clay street to Dr. Geo. Kernahan. of Chicago. The con­ sideration we believe was four thousand dollars. Dr. Baldwin has beeu in Woodstock but little over a year, but in that ti ne hai made hosts of friends, and built up a large and remunerative practice, and from all 'that we can learn has given universal satisfaction. Dr. Kernahan comes highly recom­ mended as a physician and as a gentle­ man, having been in charge of St. Luke's Hospital, at Chicago, for about two year- past. We bespeak for him a liberal «hare of the patronage which falls to his profession. Tlios. Wiiitson, senior member of the hardware ttrrn of T. Whljtson A Son, started last Monday mornlfig to visit friends ami relatives residing in Mas- sachn«erts. New and New Jersey.

It is twenty-eight years since he was last there, and he expects to find filings changed, and to miss tho faces of many who worked with him. and with whom he di«l business in those good old davs. This is the first rest from labor Mr. Whitson haa taken /or several years, and lie eertainly deserves to enjoy himself. We believe he expects to be absent about six weeks in all. Richmond Department. CONTBIBCTED BT S. p. RBNRKTT. The rye harvest has commenced.

EIUTOR I'LAINDKALER :--I send yon a few Items for your paper, as your subscribers hpre like to have their own place represented in your columns. The people have come to the conclu­ sion that you publish the best paper in the county, and you will doubtless have other new subscribers from here.

Which cost seventv-six dollars and may be seeu at the residence of Win. Gard- ne r. Miss Sarah Hodge has moved back to Solon again from Antioch, where Bhe has beeu carrying on dressmaking. Our school is prospering nicely. The boys can't cat-haul Mr. Wire round worth a cent. Our directors did the right thing to secure his services for the winter term of school. Dr. Hornby has just returned from Minnesota, where he has been attend­ ing a cancer case. He reports a good wheat crop there. J. Rohbins is doing a rushing busi­ ness selling implements tills season. Ed is helping liiin most of tlie time. The store and cheese factory are do­ ing better than ever, which shows tlie people appreciate them, and are will­ ing to patronize home Industry. The literary society is prospering nicely, but there Is one thing that does not look just right. After ob­ taining money from about fifty dif­ ferent persons to purchase books with, who expected to always have the priv­ ilege of reading those books, to have a few adopt a by-law denying them this privilege and beat them out of their money altogether, if they do not see fit to pay twenty-five cents additional every three mouths. We do not. be­ lieve this is the wish of the majority of the subscribers, and even if it is that does not make it right or honor­ able. Would it not look better it A pays a dollar to let that stand to ills credi t so long as he is a resident of this plaee. If B wants to pay a dollar a year additional let him do so and give him credit for all he pays and if the books are ever sold, let the money be divided, giving each person in pro­ portion to what he paid in. MONDAY MORNING. Miss Addie Overton Is very much better this morning and there are very great hopes of her recovery now. Those young ladies from Chicago arc having a splendid time among their friends here. \ TTenr.v Turner, of Richmond, was down Sunday having a good rime wlrh tho voiing ladio*. He.

Brown was summoned to Chicago on Sunday, by telegram, on account of the Illness of her little grandson, Luty Herrlck. The child has diptherla. R. C. Bennett is visit­ ing in Chicago. The Sentinel TI. the Mdwr. Two weeks ago we called attention to an article iu the Woodstock Sentinel, and have watched till now to see If it had any retractions to make, or if it would declare the name of the author. As no response is made in that sheet, the responsibility must fall upon the managing editor, whoever he may be, aud the utterances of the article allud­ ed to must he taken as the deliberate­ ly written sentiment of the paper. The Sentinel has never been noted for its friendship to the soldiers, and ma­ ny battle crippled veterans long since rejected it as disloyal to their inter­ ests. In the article referred to it throws ofl the mask. If mask It ever desired to .wear, and shows itself In its true colors, as the enemy and inaulter of maimed, crippled and disabled sol­ diers, whose only crime Is to ask the Government for their just rights to pension under the contract of enlist­ ment. Let every soldier's friend, let every widow and orphan of a dead sol­ dier, read what the Sentinel says, and know what sympathy toward them, aud those who have befriended them, the Sentinel evinces. We quote below from the Sentinel's article: Mr. M. M. Clothier, solicitor for pensions, of McHcnrv rountv. In a communication pub- llslicil in the Mc'llenry IHuiiutertier, in a whin, inn ivav says: "The flisableil veteran, illiterate thmiirh he mixht l>c, destitute ami friend less, hns always found a true and hglp- inft friend when he brought his Kri^f to S'liST? win." That means that whenever Mr. Cloth­ ier ln« sought to obtain a pension for anybo. dv, that ho had but to notify Mr. sherwin of that fact and then alt of the necessary time and all hlu tremendous influence as a mem­ ber of Oongross from this great Republican district has been exerted to aid Mr. Clothier in procuring the aforesnid pension; no matter what, the merits of the case might be; no mat­ ter if the applicant had immediately before or could immediately after its receipt pass a successful rigid examination tor admission to a life insurance company, his application when appioved bv the examining surgeon-- another auxRiarv in the pension ring-the pension was granted if in the power of these worthies to be obtained. Can any one mistake the animus of the above? It is a direct insult to ths soldier, to his attorney aud to the ex­ amining surgeon, and Inferentially charges them all with fraud, or conniv­ ing at fraud. How do the hundreds of soldiers and the widows and orphans of sol die rs whose claims for pension have been faithfully prosecuted by Mr. Clothier, like It? How do the large number of examining surgeons before whom these same soldiers have been ordered for examination by the Com­ missioner of Pensions like It? How do their friends who, perhaps, help support the Sentinel, like It? How does the Republican party, ever the friend and champion of the soldier, like it? It is a fraud aud a crime, is it, for a maimed soldier to ask for a pension! It is a fraud and a crime, is it, for Mr. Clothier to present the claims of a soldier before the Pension Department! It Is a fraud and a crime, is it. for an examining surgeon to obey the commands of the Government and examine a soldier ordered before him for that purpose! It Is a crime and a fraud. Is it, for Mr. Sherwin, or any other man, to aid a soldier to, at best, a poor reward for lost Jimbs and shat­ tered constitutions! Does the Sentinel forget that Its own editor was an ap­ plicant for pension and dare not ap­ pear before the surgeon for examina­ tion whenfordered? Can the Sentinel Inform the soldiers it tries to insult, whether Its editor, after the necessary sworn statement of disability In his hpplication for pension, passed "a suc­ cessful rigid examination for admis­ sion to a life Insurance company." or was it before? Perhaps a Mr. Bourne might answer for the Sentinel! Or will Mr. Southworth. himself, answer? Every soldier should ^iereafter carry with him a copy of the Sentinel of two weeks ago and show it to his friends. It shows so nicely the tender love of the Sentinel for the soldier and the soldier's friend! They might Inquire If two good Government offices was the Sentinel's reward for this tender love--of course not with sarcasm--an't yon answer, "O Yev" P-»«^ th»» Sent? Me/arouud among the soldier boys! Messrs. Alexander & Hyde are offer­ ing specially low rates on silver and plated ware, clocks and watches, and a large aud geu«r»i assortment of jewel­ ry. Call aud examine goods aud pric­ es. Among the late improvements fu the vicinity ot Richmond we notice a fine barn erected by John Reed, on what is known as the "Dan Strain f-»r.n."

Swenk, of Elgin, visited Richmond Monday even­ ing. to assist the brethren of Richmond Lodge. A. F. and A. M., in eonlerring the third degree. By telegram Monday Richmond fami­ lies were made sad by three announce­ ments of death. The first was that of W. Bennett, of BurrTngtou, brother of the writer, the second Mr. Seaton. of the cheese factory firm of MoConnell & Seaton. and tlie third Luty llerriek. son of porter Herrlck, and grandson of Mrs. A. L. Brown, of Richmond. Mr. Seattin had gone west in hopes to re­ cruit his waning health, but death over­ took hi in there. Luty Herrick died of diphtheria. "Iu life w« are iu the midst of death."
