It is sup­ posed that the late cold wet weather, which caused the flies, on which they principally live, to be scarce, was the iuse of their destruction.

AN exchange says: "You may hive the stars in a nail keg, hang the ocean on a rail fence to dry, put the sky to sleep in a gourd, unbuckle the belly-band • ,of eternity and let the sun and moon out, •>fbut don't think you can escape the place « that lies on the other side of purgatory "if you don't pay for your paper. WE have been having "some weather, the past few weeks. The difficulty wit: . the weather about here has been owin to the fact that the barometer had to li ? sent to the blacksmith shoo for repair . :We hope for better weather in the nej r future, but in the Meantime be calm, 1 e ^dignified, and don't be scared.

HODDKH, editor of the Aurora Beacon has been appointed Postmaster of that city. He publishes tho best paper in Kane County, and his appoint­ ment is a just recognition of valuable service rendered. B. ROBINSON, at his rooms over the Post Office, is prepared to file saws on short notice and guarantee satisfaction Bring your saws along and have them sharpened. Also grinds and sharpens shears. AN Elgin paper has the following: "Dr. Hinman has refused an offer of $7,000 from a Mr. Colby, of Spring Valley, for his two Morgan horses. The gentleman purchased a two-year-old colt of the Doctor, paying about $800for the same. The two-year-old colt mentioned is the one lately purchased of Ray Owen, in this Village. AT no time within the past six or seven years have we seen the Cemetery, in this village, in so neglected a condition as at the. present. A few only have trim­ med up their lots and put them in shape, while the balance are overgrown with rank grass. This is all wrong and we trust some steps will be taken at once to remedy the matter. IN a Garden City, Kansas paper, we find the following: "Died in this city, May 20th, 1889, Mary E. Dunn, young­ est child of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Dunn. Funeral services WereUeld Tuesday after­ noon in the Congregational Church, conducted by Rev. J. K. Lowrance. Our deepest sympathy is extended to the bereaved family in their sad affliction. Mr. Dunn formerly resided here. "One of those unreasonable men who take a newspaper for a year or two and then sends it back 'refused' or 'not wanted,' was sued by a Michigan pub­ lisher, a short time ago, and the judge gave a verdict for the plaintiff for the full amount and costs. The court de­ cided that notice to discontinue was not sufficient if the subscriber was in arrears. He must pay first. HERE is another puzzle that is getting to be the rage: Seven spot* are made in a row thus "e e e x o o o." Three coppers are placed on thee'sand three dimes on the o's leaving nothing on the x. The puzzle is to place the coppers on the e's by remov­ ing the coins and jumping one copper with one dime and vice versa, never mov­ ing a coin backward. It can be worked. WHENEVER a man is successful, says the LeMars Sentinel, it matters not in what, he will be hated. If his success is in the wrong direction he will be hated by the better class of community, and he should be. If he succeeds in good work he will be hated by the bad men and envied by the conservative. When you are assailed for good work stand by your guns. The aggressive man is worth a thousand "don't care" fellows, ten thousand who will sacrifice principle and let needed work go undone for fear of enmity. Such men are cowards and stumbling blocks. They deserve to be left behind in the race of life. Their stock in trade is talk and egotism. Drive on. ^THE arrangements for the Races here ou Tuesday next are all completed and - _ TlMttkto JtcHonry The iil lipllWHiiilili for Celebrating the 4th of J^f fiq^ McHenry are progressing favorably and everything is looking to­ wards one of the best celebrations ever held in McHenry. Sufficient funds are assured, and a meeting will be held on Friday evening to appoint the different committees to carry the arrangements forward successfully. There will be Speaking, Music, Sack and Wheelbarrow Races. Foot Races, a good Trotting Race on the Driving Park, and a grand display of Fire-Works, in the evening. In short nothing will be left undone to make it a day long to be remembered with pleasure by all who visit H<*Hi»nry A full programme, with names of Speak­ ers, etc., will be published in these col­ umns as soon as arrangements are com­ pleted. Let every citizen attend the meeting at the City Hall on Friday even­ ing and lend a helping hand in celebrat­ ing the anniversary of our National In­ dependence in a becoming manner.

He reports a good attend­ ance of physicians from Marengo and Woodstock as well as from all parts of Kane county. Important medical ques­ tions were discussed and a verjOreciable and profitable day pasgefl by all Who were present. ) Miss Florence Allen, of Cary, was the guest of Miss Bertha Dodd here last week Decoration Day passed off very pleas­ antly, although it was a coid, unpleasant day. At one o'clock people gathered at the school house, where the line of march was formed, headed by the Cary band, and followed by the old soldiers, Sons of Veterans and M. W. A. Then came the little boys with flags, followed by the young girls, attired in white dresses with red, white and blue sashes, carrying bas­ kets and bouquets of flowers, which had been procured in abundance. They marched to the cemetery and decorated the graves of Columbia's dead heroes. It being so cold they inarched back to the village, where the services were held at the Congregational church, when the following program was presented: 1st, an Old National Hymn was sung by the Choir; 2d, prayer, by Rev. Mr. Spencer; 3d, song by choir; 4th, select reading, byMi88MyrtieMcK.ee; 5th, remarks by President of the Day, Prof. C. W. Hart, who introduced the speaker, Mr. Frank Spitzer, of Woodstock, who gave us a very fine speech. Next, song by the Choir; Mr. Spencer then dismissed the audience. So passed away another Memorial Day. Several of our young folks attended a party at Cary on Wednesday evening, given by Miss Florence Allen. Mr. Ed Whorral photographed the M. W. A. in fftpat of the school house, after the decoration services on Thursday last. J. Peter had his house photographed on Saturday last.

Chapell spent a part of last week visiting with friends in Cliicago. Jos. Panba has a daughter from Chi­ cago visiting here with him.' Mrs. Wm.

Children's Day will be observed here at the Congregational church on June 16th. Mr. and Mrs. Burton, of Elgin, were the guests of J. H. Ph'ilp over Sunday. The Cary and Algonquin base ball game which was to have been played here on Saturday last, was postponed on ac­ count of rani. It will probably be played this week Saturday. Each club now has one game to its credit which will make this game an interesting one.

Tin {Mins, pails, etc., were in demand last week, to protect the garden "sans" from Jack Frost. What a pity those white hats, which were so numerous pre­ vious to election last fall, were not pre­ served for this occasion. Hebron will have a grand Fourth of July celebration. The final arrange­ ments are not as yet completed, but there will doubtless be the usual picnic in the grove, amusements of every descrip­ tion throughout the day and a dieplay of fireworks in the evening. All may ex­ pect a glorious time, for Hebron seldom does anything by halves, and we t,hinlr we can make almost as much noise as Woodstock A large crowd assembled on Thursday afternoon for the proper observance of Memorial Day. At one o'clock the pro­ cession was formed in the usual order from Rowe's Hall, and under the guidance of I). A. Clary as marshal, who by the way acquitted himself nobly, marched to the cemetery, where the old soldiers cov­ ered the graves of their comrades with floral tributes. From here the line of march was continued to the church, where, after calling the assemblage to order by II. W. Mead, as chairman, Rev. Dillingham offered prayer, which was fol­ lowed by a song by the choir, after which C. P. Barnes, of Woodstock, was intro­ duced. Mr. Barnes' address was an elo­ quent tribute to the boys in blue, and his pathetic allusion to the future when we should deck the graves of those veterans who march in line to-day, brought tears to the eyes of many. At the close of the address, Prof. H. M. Soper, after a few appropriate remarks, read, in his own inimitable manner, an extract from a poem by lienj. F. Taylor. A song by the male quartette followed, after which a vote of thaks was tendered the speakers and a collection to the amount of $35 taken for the church bell. After the sing­ ing of "America," the procession marched to the hall where they were "honorably discharged." The floral decorations were beautiful. The gateway at the cem­ etery was tastefully hung with evergreens and bunting, while a wreath of ever­ greens entwined the soldiers' monument from its base to its summit . At the close of the exercises here a company of old soldiers drove to the Presbyterian ceme­ tery and placed flowers upon the graves of their comrades buried at that place. The old soldiers extend their heartfelt thanks for the assistance of the ladies in the arrangement of flowers for the deco­ ration services. ^iotlTH H'kjMiON, JSbnwT' pLAiNOKAi4a»;--Miss Haiy Gnpstenson, of Harvard, was visiting friends here the last part of the week.
