THE production, "The World Finder" at "The Chicago Spectatorium " is large­ ly composed of the symphonic, incidental and choral music. For the adequate rendition of the symphonic features of the production Anton Seidl, the famous New York orchestral director, has beer engaged and will take to Chicago with him the orchestra with which his name has been so intimately connected. I ITHIIRSDAY evening's Chicago Journal Contained an exposure of a Parisian fraud which one E. Boettcher is perpe­ trating on credulous American inventors. Me is sending out circulars for an alledged '•Parisian Inventors' Academy" inform­ ing inventors that they had been elected members of honor of the academy, and for $ 10, to cover expense of admission, duties, etc., they would receive a diploma and medal. The thing is a fraud of which American inventors are warned to be- MERCHANTS and other business men < sometimes express their opinion that a standing advertisement in a paper is of no value, although they have some faith in an o jcasional local notice. The fact .is, however, both the regular advertise ment and the local notices have their mcfl -the one to keep a man's business constantly before the people, and the other to attract attention to some specialty. No Diercbant would think «»* haviug a sign painted announcing his business and then only swing it out in front of his door occasionally. , I o -: wnwd*Ai.

I /of CHIC PERKINS Comedy Company are advertised to again appear at Riverside Hall, in this village, commencing on Mon­ day evening next, June 5th.

They will give all new plays, and some of the finest comedy-dramas on the boards. No oneshould fail to see them. For plays and other particulars see small bills. WE have just learned thatf quite ex­ tensive TmpfovementS~1Iave lately been made to the interior of the Catholic Church, in this village. The walls and ceiling have been beautifully frescoed, the woodwork painted, and other im­ provements made which-makes it one of the handsomest places of worship in this section. Rev*. Father O'Neil, who has been Pastor of this church for the past sixteen years, is justly popular with his people, and takes great pride in making the church edifice an inviting place for all. A COUPLE of swindlers who are victim­ izing the clerical profession in the. south­ ern part of the state are liable to drift this way and it behooves our preachers to look carefully at the first |20 bill proffered them for performing a marriage ceremony. The swindlers, who are a man and a woman, go to a preacher and ask to be married. The ceremony is duly performed, the man tenders a counterfeit $20 bill and asks the parson to take out of it his fee, f 5, and give him the change. Every time they get married they make $15 out of it, and they are" said to t» very much married. IT is a hard-hearted man or woman, possibly only a crusty bachelor, or a Hour elderly maiden who objects to a baby carriage on the sidewalk. On a principle pf equity the pusher of'a baby carriage has as much right to the side­ walk as the rider of a bicycle or agallant young man with a lady holding to each of his arms, neither of them will detach herself to make room for other pedestri­ ans. Let the baby carriage roll on all sidewalks as a thing of beauty with its contents of loveliness, because both are representatives of American progress, of which the nation is proud.--JEx. AN exchange remarks that when a man is through with his day's work and is sitting down and resting in his home, he cannot read the advertisements on the fences, and the hand bills and circu­ lars that were left on the dobrsteps have been blown away or been destroyed. He calls for the paper, and there he finds the merchant's announcmennt and nothing to bother his mind. He reads it carefully and calls his wife's attention to it, and they decide to go to the merchant's store and examine what is advertised. How important it is then that your name can be foudd, tbe kind of business you are en­ gaged in, and the bargains you have to offer in iip columns. 200 NEW, STYLISH, Well made and cheap suits of Clothes for Men, Boys and Children just received.

The weather was all that fould have been desired, and the conse- /quence was the men, women and children from the village and surrounding country, turned oat enmass and aided the G. A.R, in doing hunorjto the soldier dead. In sthe_J[omfo6na goodly number of the Post went to Ringwood, and with the aid of the citizens of that village, decor­ ated the graves of the soldiers who are laid to rest in that cemetery. At 1:30 P. M. they congregated at the City Hall, where the procession was formed, and headed by the McHenry Band marched to the Woodland Cemetery, where the graves of our soldier dead were pro­ fusely decorated with the choicest flowers, after which the line of march was taken up to the Public Park, where the exer­ cises of the day took place. After music bv the Band, singing by the Choir, an address of welcome by the Commander, H. C. Mead, and a response by Hon. F. K. Granger, the orator of the day, Hon. Frank Spitxer was intro­ duced, who for about thirty minutes held the large audience assembled spell­ bound by his eloquent and patriotic words. No notice we can give would half do his address justice. It should have been heard to be appreciated. We have been requested by several who heard it to publish it, so that all our readers might have a chance to read it, and we shall try to get it for that purpose, at an early day. We do not exaggerate when we say, that Mr. Spitcer is one of the finest orators and most forcible speakers in McHenry County, a.nd one who is bound to make his mark in the near future. The exercises 'concluded at the stand all departed to their homes, feeling that they had been exceptionally well enter­ tained while honoring those who gave up their lives in defense of their country Decoration Day in McHenry for 1893 will long be remembered by all who par­ ticipated. THE laws ol Illinois for the protection of birds are very stringent. Boys, when they get out with flobert rifles or shot guns seem to possess a natural propen­ sity to, shoot any wild bird or animal within reach. That they may know the risk they run we copy from the statutes that part of the law relating to the pro­ tection of birds and nests. No person shall, at any time, within the state, kill, or attempt to trap, net, ensnare, or de­ stroy any robin, blue-bird, swallow, martin, mosqultohawk, whippoorwill, cuckoo, woodpecker, cat-bird, brown- thrasher, redbird, hanging bird, buuard, sparrow, wren, humming bird, dove, goldfinch, mocking bird, blue jay, finch, thrush, lark, cherry bird, yellow bird, oriole or bobolink, nor rob nor destroy the nests of such birds or either or any of them. And any person so offending shall on conviction be fined fiye dollars for each and every bird so killed and tor each and every nest robbed or destroyed. The Farmer and the Newspaper Man. Many men think that the newspaper men are persistent dunners. By way of comparison let us suppose that a farmer raises 1,000 bushels of wbeat,ayear, and sells this to 1,000 persons in all parts of the country, a great portion of them saying: "I will hand yon a dollar in a short time." The farmer does not want to be small, and says all right. Soon the 1,000 bushels are gone but he has nothing to show for it, and then he real­ ize that he has fooled away his whole crop and its value to him is due him in a thousand little driblets, consequently he is seriously embarrassed in his business, because his debtors, each owing him one dollar, treat it as a small matter and think it would not help much. Continue this kind of business year in and year out as the publisher does, how long would he stand it? A moment's thought will con­ vince anyone that a publisher has cause for persistent dunning.--National Labor Tribune. SOME Washington lawyers know a good deal about pensions. That is a compli­ cated subject, and a man who is familiar with it has no time to be very expert in anything else. Some other lawyers are well acquainted with patents, but know nothing about pensions. Others know something of the land laws, but are in­ nocent of ideas concerning pensions and patents.' The Press Claims Company can handle every class of claims against the Govern­ ment with equal facility. It has at its command a staff of legal specialists so large that it is able to intrust every case to an attorney who is familiar with its peculiar needs. If you are a soldier en­ titled to a pension, or the widow or de­ pendent relative of such a soldier, if yon are an inventor desiring protection for your ideas, if you are a settler anxious to perfect your title to your land, if you are a sufferer from Indian depredations; in short, if you have rights of any de­ scription requiring tbe action of any de­ partment of the Government, your beet plan is to writwto the Press Claims Com pany, 618 F St., N. W., Washington, D. C., and find out what to do. The com­ pany charges nothing for information and advice. Beal Estate Transfers.

OVSWASt. DIED --At her home in Ringwood, May 18,1893, Emily M., daoghter of Minard M. and Mary Chase, aged 20 years and 6 months. It is a sad duty to announce the death of one so young and well beloved, whoee bright presence brought joy to so many hearts, and whose absence leaves a void that can never be filled. Emily Chase was born in Ringwood Nov. 19,1872, and spent her whole short life here, receiving her education in our public school. When she left school she remained at home and became her mother's companion and solace. Her physical organization was always deli­ cate, but she was ever a cheerful, happy girl, who loved her home and friends and the innocent pleasures of life. Being criways shielded by the tenderest care her friends trusted she might be spared for a long and useful life which she was so well fitted to adorn. They can now recall that, while vivacity and courage still were left, for many months there was a gradual yielding of the forces of life. When la grippe set in there was but little vitality left in the delicate frame to re­ sist it. She rallied from the first attack but a relapee came with the many com­ plications so otten attending that dread disease. All that medical skill and love could do was done to eave her but in vain. Her pure spirit took its flight for a higher and better life. , She was a young lady endowed by nature with a flue intellect which had been well trained, and enriched and strengthened by her love of good reading and her habits of close observation. She loved the works "of nature and every thing good and beautiful. To these were added a command of language that made her an entertaining companion for young and old. Gifted with unusual musical talent her parents spared no pains to give her an opportunity to cul­ tivate it, and her industry and enthusi­ asm in her favorite study never flagged while her strength lasted. She became a musician to whom it was a rare pleasure tc liaton, for there was a dclfeej asr! finish in her music one seldom hears and which gave promise of future success. Her kindly nature ever prompted her to thoughtful care for the sick and sorrow­ ful. The fragile, refined girl, whose music delighted all, was a frequent and welcome visitor in the sick room, where her tender sympathy and ready, helpful ways, made her presence a blessing. She is gone and many for wbom in hours of trouble she did so much, now mourn that in those last sad days of her life on earth they could do so little for her. It is difficult to understand why the young and happy are snatched from our homes, but our Father knows best, and when our dear ones are called to "come up higher" to inhabit the "Father's house with many mansions" we know a loving hand has chastened us. Though the mystic veil of death now hides them from our vie-v, ere long it will be drawn aside and we shal| step within and behold them again in the beauty of immortality. The funeral was held Saturday, May 20, at her home. Rev. Slade, of McHenry preached a short and appropriate ser­ mon and Prof. J. I. Sears, of Cary, as pianist gave Chopin's Funeral March. C. E. Fay sang "Tired," a touching and beautiful song. She was laid to rest in Ringwood cemetery. She leaves a father mother and one sister, a large circle of relatives and many near and dear friends to mourn her loss. To them all we ex­ tend our heartfelt sympathy in their great affliction. Farewell, dear one. farewelll We lay thee down to rest with aching hoarts And falling te» rs Within thy silent (tr > ve Lie burle fondest, hopes for future years. And love that never failed in ought to thee. Upon thy pnowy brow t he last fond kiss We've pressed. The last sweet song Is sung Above tiiy ooftin I'd. We lay tbeedown to rest Farewell, farewell, dear onel But not tor ate.

I have reduced the services of George O., 2:21X (sire of five from 2:18% to 2:29% last year) from $75 to $50 for the season. I have thought a long while be­ fore I concluded to do this, as the record he has and tbe producer he has proven himself to be, from all classes of mares, from Normans to standard producers, had made me think that $75 was cheap enough, but to benefit some that would not breed otherwise 1 reduced his fee. have n )w over 30 booked to Qeorge O, and have bred 27. I calculate he will serve 75 mares-in 1893, and look for him to put several more in the list this year A pacer in 2:10 or better and a three- year-old better than '30, all in hot races. I pay no attention to what my com­ petitors may say in their flying posters to achieve a reputation, as 1 have lots of George O colts that can go faster than such. I am satisfied that George O is the greatest producer ever produced or brought into Northern Illinois and some day you will all want a George O. colt Thanking you all for your liberal pat­ ronage, I remain Faithfully Yours, GEO.

Hall on Saturday evening, was well attended, ice Cream and i;ake was served. We did not learn what the receipts were. Nunda is to have another new firm - George Prickett and Alvah Hale, two young gentlemen of this city, will open a Grocery and Supply store on Railroad street, near the Post Office. We are informed that the Board of Education have succeeded in securing Prof, Grimes for another year, which is a guarantee that our Public School will again be under good management. Miss Eastman, the present teacher in tbe Grammar room of our school, has been secured for another year. Miss Eastman is an excellent teacher and all interested in the success and progress of that Department will be gratified to learn the fact that she is to remain. Decoration Day services were well at­ tended. The speakers done themselves great credit. Dr. Pilcher, of Elgin, was the first speaker and gave a very able and patriotic address. Ossian Congdon, son of R. Congdon, one of the merchants of Nunda, followed with a very interest­ ing address of three quarters of an hour, which was listened to with marked inter­ est by all. A very long procession pro­ ceeded to the Union Cemetery, where the W. R. C. had their Memorial Service®, after which the procession marched to Crystal Lake Cemetery, where the sol­ diers graves were strewu with flowers.-- The day was fine, the exercises were well carried out and quite impressive. Memorial Services were held here last Sunday in the M. E. Church. Post and Corps being well represented. Also a large congregation.

There were also a goodly number of Sons of Veterans present. The day was beauti­ ful and all tended to make it a dur of much interest. • CONFIRMATION SUITS.
