A large number of the Hebron people who attended the McHenry county Fair and ate chicken pie at the dining hall were quite sick. The new press for the weekly Herald is in place and next week Hebron will boast of Vol. 1, No. 1, her first newspaper. We wish it success and long may it live. Frank Rowe has changed the Hall above the store to a Society Hall. The Mason's and Odd Fellows have rented it and when completed it will beoneof the finest halls in the county. The unpronounceable name Flossie speaks of in the Richmond (SiizHt« of last week is G. Z. D. by spelling the first and last letters and pronouncing the middle letter, Gee Z. Dee and you have it, named from Geo. Z. Deam. X. B. Mauor was at the Racine races last week and took third money, and con­ sidering that there was a 2:26 horse put in to fill the race and it was paced in 2:27 with Gee Z. Dee a close thira, it speaks well for Newel as a trainer of horses. Considerable excitement in town over the outrage that was committed in the Stewart district, accounts of which have been published before. The villian is a fit subject for the gallows or state prison for life, and it is the prayer of this community that nothing less will answer. Farmers have commenced corn cutting with a vengeance and those fortunate ones who possess silos are busy filling them. It is said that no fears are now entertained from the ravages of Jack Prost but the prospect is that the corn crop will yield a fair average. J. F. Brown and family are visiting at La Crosse where Mr. Brown is making arrangements to handle the La Crosse, Wallis & Co.*s buggies more extensively.

The foundation is laid and carpenters are busy on the Erection of Mrs. Hyde's new residence. Also D. A. Clary's and Fred Perry's, and we learn that Bead Finch intends to build in the south part of town. Hebron will persist in growing in size, although the sidewalk on Main street is sadly in need of repairs. Our public school commenced Septem­ ber 1st with one hundred and ten schol­ ars, Prof. W. E. Wire at the helm, who needs no mention as his name has been before the public for some time. Miss Dillingham has charge of the Intermedi­ ate department. She is a very successful teacher, this being her Becond term in Hebron. Mips Minnie Stone oversees the primary, and as a teacher of the little ones she has proven herself an expert. One of our townsmen visited the show at Harvard and was victimized to the amount of nearly one hundred and twen- ty-flve dollars. It seems strange that there are old men foolish enough to bet on another mail's game that have been beaten in nearly tne same way before. And I presume that if the same person were asked to contribute a dollar for some charitable purpose, he could not spare the money. The game of ball played at Richmond on Saturday last between the Hebron and Richmond juvenile nines resulted in a second victory for the former club, the score standing 21 to 19. The game was a close and interesting one throughout, and it was understood it was to be played for a prize of a bat and ball. Our boys came home with the honors and a new ball but no bat.
