Now the facts are they made 540,000 in the month of July, and that with a one horse power machine, and they challenge the world to beat the record. This season they have already made 1,340,000 Brick, and will make fully as many more before the season is over.

The meeting was called to order and on motion Dr. A. S. Childs was chosen chairman and Simon Stoffel Secretary. After the matter had been discussed by those present, on mo­ tion a committee of five, consisting of F. K. Granger, H. C. Mead, John Evan- son, R. A. Howard and Simon Stoffel, was appointed to consult with parties interested and report at a special meet- iog of said committee, to be held at the office of Dr. Childs, oh Monday, Aug. 4th, at 4 p. M. Said committee met on Mon­ day, and after various ways and means were proposed, agreed that, more time was necessary to investigate and talk up the matter, and decided to hold another meeting at the City Hall on Monday AN exchange says: /It is no longer good manners for a gentleman to raise this hat when he meets a lady on the street.

THE Base BaUgame, on Thursday last, between the McHenry and Woodstock Nines, which was played on the Fair Grounds, at Woodstock, was a genuine farce from beginning to end; Our boys were foolish enough to eonsent to play the game under the two umpire rule, one of the most senseless things ever intro­ duced on a ball field, and in this case it was a battle of the Umpires, aud not of the contesting Clubs. The Umpire for the Woodstock Nine was either a fool or a knave, it would be hard to tell which from his decisions. That the McHenry nine outplayed the Woodstocks at every point is conceded by every impartial man who saw the game, yet the game was de­ cided in favor of the latter by a score of 15 to 12. Our boys are anxious for the return game and will guarantee a fair field and no favors. liattio A. Story - Sorrow from a Distance Truly a minister's pastorate never ends with a family whose friendship has l>een once formed; but never broken by discord or distance; where the richness of confidence was fully "developed in the baby-girl, young maiden! and in father aud mother. Four-sfded, strongly- banded, one for each and each for all-- such a home was John I. Story's when I was pastor in McHenry, 111. In it was my first abiding place in the village, and a heartier welcome man never had. A happier home is seldom found when the four with health abounded. Whenever I crossed the yard or entered the door, the cheerful "Good morning,was never with­ held by either of the four. Since then, many a letter has passed between us, and friendship, ever alive, has grown and thriven in our hearts, and the words, "Edna says" this, and "Hattie says" that, were the sentences mingled with the loving, kindly words that came. But now, yea notr, the dreaded words have come to cast a gloom over our hearts, saying "Dear Hattie is dead." Nay, not dead, but passed up higher. God bless those parents and the little sister; for that home is not fourJsided now. To you, dear brother John^and sister Julia, on that darker side let there be a window put, and there to stay, with no curtain to fall, no shutter to otose and mar the light; yes, the window, of abiding faith, through which you can look and see your darling daughter among the angels; for remember, you have not lost her--God gave her to you for yours, and yours always. Disease has moved her a little further on and up, to watch and wait for your after-coming. And that faith shall give you sustaining strength as the days ^shall come and go. Nevertheless the heart pants for the sweet communion of living words between parents aud loving daughter, and tears will come for love will mourn, for those affectionate, intelli­ gent and charming lives were a benedic­ tion to us all, as was hero. And so our tears (my wife's and mine) mitigle with the rest for the absence of her who had so many frieuds, attracted to her by the genial joy ot her daily life. May the God of peace and love, which passeth under­ standing, help her loved ones who are left to bear the burden Of sorrow, and with the many others we bear a part for consolation's and friendship's sake. "Not death, but life. Tbsak Go1 that she has risen! That he haih sent tier pease! That from the pain and shadow of It* prison, Her soul has found release. '•W« may not know the glory and Hit |'ad- ness, Th*t jn the spirit shine, That bore on earth its agoay^md With patience so divine. ('i&i Evaodop'e.

And Siill Another--Xtaar DCaude/*"^ P. S.--And now, before We send the above brief words, there comes another sadness--another sorrow. Dear Maude, so sad,-so sudden and so near to Hattie, whom she loved so well; who scattered flowers so lovingly with the rest at the burial of her friend, only to go so soon, to gather the heavenly fruitage on the other side. Two of my former congrega­ tion and of my Sunday school:--mates then, htaters now in God's kingdom of love aud glory. Brother and sister Van Slyke, to you y^e send our sympathy and the consolation of our friendship. This double sorrow, for those onoe so near to us and never yet forgotten, is full more than we, with you, seem hardly able to bear, and yet we must. Our hands and our tears are here, but our hearts are with you there in your sadness. Disease may destroy the body, but God gives the soul of your daughter to you forever. Count her among your treasures laid up for future and endless enjoyment, and may the good Father bless, sustain and strengthen you. BEKJ. AND SOPHIA E. BRUNNING. Hebron Department LODGE DIRECTORY.

THE triumphal career of "The Crystal" at the Chicago Opera House is rapidly drawing to a close. There will be but four weeks more of this the most brill­ iant production Chicago has ever seen. The company embraces half a dozen stars who are now working together with per­ fect smoothness, and the result is a per­ formance which for sparkle, vivacity, and fun has nefer been equalled in the Northwest. The management of the Chicago Opera House has reluctantly been compelled to withdraw it owing "to arrangements made a year ago. Among the many different ballet features, the novelty never seems to wear off such things as the "nursery rhymes divertise- ment," danced by fifty coryphees; the "ioe cream," Champagne," Mid other ballets in the banquet scene. The '"skirt dance" proves to be a great hit, being danced by six of the b§st danccrs ever s&en upon the stage of the Chicago Opera House. On Sunday evening, Aug. 10th, the third and last edition of .the piece Will be given. This will also inaugurate the series of final performances of "The Crystal Slipper" to be given in Chicago. A number ot new features will be intro­ duced. Mr. Daboll, the Baron Anthra­ cite of the cast, will sing a song, heard for the first time in this country, entitled, "All the World's a Stage." A new "tarantella" will be introduced in the ballet, and there wjll be an Irish song and chorus, "McCarty's Daughter," for Mr. Edwin Foy. The latter has created quite a success, and is said to be quite as funny as the famous "Ballyhooley" song. "Little Mary," another entirely new song and dance, will be furnished for Mr. Foy in the third act. The new ballet features in the third act*will be a Hungarian dance for Frl. Clara Qualitz and Mile. Madeline Morando. and a character dance for Mr. Wm. Martini and two secondos. The Inst act will be further embellished by the addition of an entire­ ly new serenade for Miss Louise Mor- ' Art. *, ' ' ' .1?.. y ..iu.n . MONEY TO LOAN.
