He was here to attend a meeting t)f that Association and found that there were but four of the original thirteen left, three besides himself. The occa­ sion drew out a large number from Elgin and vicinity. n DONT get excited over political discussions, Give each man the same rights you claim for yourself--to talk and work for the candidates ol his choice. Petty quarreling and wrang­ ling only injures the cause you are seekiog to advance. Do not do It, THE Board of Directors have en­ gaged Prof. L.

THE Lecture, by Dr. McKiablo, at Grand Army Hall, on Wednesday evening last was not as well attended as It should haye been, but the ex­ treme warm weather was undoubtedly the cause. Nevertheless those who did attend were well repaid for so doing, The Doctor Is a pleasant speaker, and keeps bis audience good natured throughout. We hope be may visit us again under more favorable circum­ stances. ; ROBERT RICHARDSON, whose suddeo death on July 7th. we noticed last week, was born in Windsor, Orange County, Vermont in 1813. # When eleven years of age, he removed to Ashtabula County, Ohio. In 1834, he went to Cataraugus County, New York where be was engaged in the lumbering trade for ten years. In 1844, be came to McHenry - County where he remained till 1870 when be went to Spaita, Wis. In 1887, he re­ turned to McHenry County where be resided until the time of bis death. A MEETING of the -Fox River Fish and Game association was held at the Lakeside hotel, Fox Lake, on the afternoon of the Fourth. The direct­ ors reported their efforts for the erection of fishways, The law reads that after ten days' notice to owners of dams tho fish commissioners shall put in the fishways themselves. This they were unable to do, as the s'ate has no appropriation for the purpose. At the meeting erough money was •ubs srlbed to put a fiihway In the Elgin dam. A demand was also made upon the commissioners to execute the law. THE town that maintains good schools and good churches Is bound to succeed. Both of these are enemies to bad morals and bad men shun such places. Worthless men seek worthless company, and therefore settle down where the prospect is brightest for associates to their likeing. The enter­ prising, thrifty mechanic, merchant or laborer covets a home and place of business as nearly free from lawless men as possible. Such places are those in which schools and churches are maintained, and maintained for what good there is In tbem. Show us a place where no Interest Is taken In ed* ucation and church affairs, and yon will sbow us a worthless town and a worthies class of people. Support your churches and schools.--Me.

THE sixth week of the ran of "The Crystal Slipper" at the Chicago Opera House was thoroughly tested the pop­ ularity of that most sumptous extrav aganza. At every performance the Theatre baa been crowded, and the re­ ceipts were larger, it Is sild, than during the first week. That this Is the case Is not a matter of wonder to tboae who have been fortunate enough to secure seats. The piece is s<> full of novelties in music, dancing and scenic effects, and the "business" of the principals Is so Irresistably comloal, that it Is justly considered by the critical tbe most entertaining and beautiful theatrical production ever given in Chicago. On Friday night, tbe 50th performance will take place. Tbe affair wll! be celebrated in a proper manner, and souvenirs, pre­ pared at considerable cost, will be distributed. Little Tich's antics in the Dolls' Quadrille continues to con- vulse tbe spectators. The advanoe sale until the end of the engagement Is very large. A RECORD MADE. The fame and Influence the McHenry County Fair has accomplished in the past few years is a sufficient guarantee that it has placed our county pre­ eminent btfore the masses throughout the west. With (.11 we have gained It ought to be a stimulus to eacb proper­ ty owner in taking a greater Interest In tbe coming Fair, and resolve to en­ courage it in one way or tbe other, whereby the year *of 1888 will add greater honors. We take it for grant­ ed that a *ood share think it is not necessary to bring sometblng, only to attend. We admit it helps tbe society in one way, yet, with a rich county, how nioe It would be to see every nook and corner full. Will it be done ? Tbe Fair Is yours--perhaps more than it is to others--you uiay ask, why ? Because the farmers are tbe most ben­ efited by it. It is a school of instruc­ tion in every sense of the worl, and If you are honest you will admit it. The Improvement of your stock shows It, the Falr*J»rlngs this About. The man who has scrub stock, after attending^ the Fair sees tbe fallacy of keeping it so, and resolves at once he Is through, goes home, turns over a bright page and seeks tbe herds of those who breed good strains and purchases a new lay out, so to speak. Is this not true nine times in ten? What would Induce him to do this outside of the Fair? Noth­ ing. We are earnest In this Fair work and we desire you to be. It makes the work so much eaBier and more encour­ aging. This is a Fair year, the ripen­ ing grain, green pastures, swarthy corn all lends enchantment to tbe onward mar jb of success. Are we to ba dis­ appointed? We hope not. A.S.WKIQHT.SAG'F. Life of Ben. Harrison, BY THE AUTHOR OF BKN HUR, Gen.

Harrison's lile-long aud trusted friends, and it also a distlnguisoed soldier, a trained statesman, and a diplomat of high na­ tional reputation, His name as author gives at once the assurance of a blogrs pby of extraor­ dinary merit.

Ills large experience in national and International a Hairs tits bim to tee at understanding^ and ably of General Harrison's superb record as a states­ man, and clearly to unfold the princi­ ples held i>y bim respecting the science of good government and tbe weighty issues at stake la the present great contest. Gen. Wallace at first declined this task but upon tbe urgent solicitation of many eminent men of tbe party, and Gen. Harrison's assurance that everything needful should be placed at bis disposal, so as to make it tbe strictly authorized Biography be yielded to the call and has agreed to complete the work for publication by Hubbard Brothers of Philadelphia early in August, VINTAGE OF GRAPES FOB INVALIDS.

Elizabeth, N. J. March 17,1884 --I have been using Allcock's Porous Plasters for tbe last five years. Some two years ago, after having been sick for upwards of six months with malaria, I found myself with an en­ larged spleen, dyspeptic, and.oonstant- ly troubled with a headache, and my kidneys did not act very well either. Having spent most of my money for medicine and medical advloe, I thought to save expense I would use Allcock's Pjrous plasters, two- on the small of my back, one on the spleen or ague cake, and one on the pit of the stomach, just under tbe breastbone. I continued using tbe Plasters about tb{rty ' days, changing them eyery week. At the end of that time I was perfectly well, and have remained so ever since. GBOBOB DIXOH.

Now, as a matter of fact, they are not destructive to any extent They bore Into the twigs of trees and the twigs as a consequence are de­ stroyed, but that is about as far as their destroying vegetation extends. Following on the heels of the tales of destruction to vegetatldn will doubt­ less be numerous accounts of these locusts itingiog people. This idea that they sting is also a fallacy, aa they do not have the power to do so. The only real annoyance that a local* ity which is infested with them Is subject to Is tbe noise they keep up constantly.
