Programme will appear in these columns next week. THE girls will have a chance next year. It will be the last leap year for eight years. The leap years which fall in the last year of a century are not counted, so there will be only twenty-eight days in th e February of 1900. "THE infant son of Mr. and Mrs. W. P. torse died at their home in Woodstock On Friday of last week, after a brief ill­ ness. The funeral services were held from the residence on Sunday and the remains were taken to Nunda for burial. AT Oatman's Butter Factory a new 1 house has been put up and tilled with fCdbd thirty inch ice. There will be no lack of the congealed element in this sec tion the coming summer, all the ice bouses in the corporation having been Jllled early in the winter, F THE Concert, for the benefit of the Ger- / man Catholic Church, at Heimer's Hall on Thursday evening last, drew out large crowd, and was pronounced by all &s one of the best entertainments ever •fciven in this village. We have hotlearn ed the amount of the receipts. THE Social by the ladies of t^e Univer­ salis Society, at the reeideno6~<SfT^J. Walsh and wife on Friday evening lalst was well attended, something over sixty being present, and was a very enjoyable occasion. The programme was fine and «was rendered in an unexceptionable man­ ner. THS Masquerade Party\ at the River- Bide House, on Monday evening was at­ tended by abOnt one hundred and thirty couples and was a most enjoyable affair Slocum's Orchestra, six pieces, furnished the music, and it was pronounced by all to be the best ever furnished for a danc­ ing party in this village. A NEIGHBORING exchange tells the fol lowing story of a farmer who went into a drug store and for the first time saw Ifi phonograph. He was told to drop nickle in the slot and hear the music, The farmer doubtingly dropped in nickle, put the tube to his ear and after | , waiting a second started for the door with a hasty exclamation: "Gosh all - fish hooks!

You will find in each some­ thing that will interest and benefit you. KEEP hustling. There is more solid * • a day w hr in: to make a dollar than there ftrhi loafing on the street a month. The man who is always hustling is happy, whether he is making anything or not, while the idler vknd croker is forever discontented.' WHAT little sleighing we had hat de­ parted and we are now enjoying some regular spring weather. Old croakers are calling it a weather breeder but we are willing to enjoy it while it is here and take what follows as a matter of course. We all have got to die but let. us not gfrigve until the day of retribution comes. DON'T snore when yon sleep, c nd if you do, keep your mouth shut. A mouse ran into a boy's mouth, down m Mis­ souri lately, and not only stopped his shoring but shut his wind off. The boy died in great agony before the doctors oould ascertain the cause and catch the mouse, so the papers say. aobavb nrrar The entertainment, to tie given by the ladies of the Willing Workers Society, at the City H #)!.

Prof. Straub is one of the most noted publishers, com­ posers and leaders of musical institntss in the United States, and will present to our citizens a musical treat of rare merit and one no one can afford to miss. The programme will be published in these colaorfh* next week, la the meantime make your arrangements to attend. Remember the dats, Friday evening of next week, March 8. 0 * ' AN eastern firm very generously sends us an order for advertising to be paid for in seeds. We thank you, gentlemen, we are about as seedy now as we can be and get around town. If you have any pat­ ent adjustable pants patches, warranted to match all patterns, yon can send them right along with your electroplate.--Ex. THS Elgin Courier says: "The Fox Lake Gun Club has issued a challenge to the National Gun Club, j?f this city, for a team shoot, to occur soon. The letter was received by W, H. Doe, and provides for a picked team of six men, to shoot fifty blue rocks e^eh. The Fox Lake peo­ ple desire to post f 25 and have the Elgin boys do the same. The latter do not desire to shoot for money, but can get the match in no othsr way, and conse­ quently accepted. % ANY man can take a newspaper. It is the cheapest thing he can buy. Jt costs little more than a postage stamp to send or receive a letter. What good does it do you ? ̂ It instructs you and your wife and teachles your children. It comes to you in calm or storm, bringing you the best news of^the neighborhood. No mat­ ter what hapfrfins it enters your door as a welcome friend, full of sunshine, cheer and interest. It shortens ths long sum­ mer days and enlivens the long winter nights. It is your advisor, your inform­ ant, your friend. No man is just to his wife and children who does not give them the home paper to read.--Ex. THE following lullaby, it is said, is the one by which the babies are lulled to slumber out in Kansas: ^ Rockaby baby your mamma has gone, She's out at a caucus and will be till dawn.

AUDITOR'S apSBTINGh The annual meeting of the Board Town Auditors for the town ofMcHeliry, will beheld at the City H^ll, in th£ Ullage of McHenry, on Tuesday, March 26th, 1895, for the purpose of auditing all claims against said town for the past year.

For the cheapest and best stock of fish for lent go to 8. Stoffel's. i Foil stock of choice Clover and Tim- othy for Spring seeding at 8. Stoffel's. around the Hotel Riverside the present spring. More rooms will be added and other improvements that will tend to the comfort and convenience of guests, Under the management of its present landlord, J. 1. Story, this house has be­ come justly popular with the traveling and pleasure seeking public, and last season was filled to its utmost capacity, ^ dud had there been accommodations many more would have com*. This will <lbe remedied this spring by the addition of more rooms, and all who come will be accommodated in a satisfactory manner. We do not exaggerate when we say that McHenry has one ofjjthe best hotels to be tound outside of the city. WE envy neither the men nor ths women who cannot speak to a fellow creature oat of their own circle or to any­ body without the formality of an intro­ duction. There is no computing the amount of profit as well as pleasure such persons lose by hedging themselves in with this stupid fence of fastidiousnsss. We have always found mors of this feel­ ing among persons who were mors elated on their social position than among thoseself respecting persons who thought nothing about it. A great deal of intell­ igence is floating around ths world with­ out being labeled, and those men or women who have the good sens* to rso- ognize this fact and act upon it not only are educating themselves, but conferring that pleasure which we all are bound by the common ties of humanity to ex­ change with each other. It seems to ns that it is only ths snob and prstsnder who takes a different view of this question. THE Springfield Union tells a story of the late Geo. W. Stearns. H# was de­ fending a young fellow for larceny, the evidence against whom was only circum­ stantial. Stearns urged that circum­ stantial evidence ought never to convict a man. "Why," snid the counsel, "when 1 was a boy I remember a playmate of mine, who, while bis parents were absent went to the pantry and nearly devoured a big custard pis before he thought of the paternal strap. Whsn las did, hs looked aiound for some means of hiding ths traces of his guilt. He saw the fam­ ily cat in the corner, and taking puss by the neck he carefully smeared her paws with the custard, took ths guilty oat oat in ths yard and shot her. As ths shot­ gun rang out, the boy observed to me with a chuckle: 'There goes one more victim of circumstantial svidsnos.'" The j nry disagreed. THE Diamond Garment Cutter Co. has rented the west room of the J. J. Miller building, Vest McHenry, where they will teach how to cut, fit, baste, make and trim garments of every description that will conform with the prevailing fashions. The class room will be open ready for the regular class work, Thursday, Feb. 28, at 2:30 P. M. Ladies now is the time to learn something that you can put into practice. Learn the Diamond Garment Cutter and save lots of worry and trouble. All parties interested are cor­ dially invited to call at the class room and examine the work. A nfiroad mat is respouaibls fef ths following prayer: " Oh Lord, now that I have flagged thee, lift my feet off the rongh road of life asd plant thsis safely on deck of the train of salvation. Let me nee the safety lamp known as pru­ dence, make all couplings in the train of Thy love and light my lamp by the bible 1 A'nd, Heavenly Father, keep all the switches closed that lead off the siding, especially those with s blind end! Oh Lord, if it be thy pleasure, have every semaphore block along the line show the white light of hope, that I may make the run of life without stopping. And, Lord, give us ths ten commandments as schedule, and when I have finished the run, and have, on schedule time, pulled into the dark station of death, may thou, the superintendent of the universe, say, with a smile, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, come and sign the pay roll and receive your check for eter­ nal happiness." The Appropriation tux the Stat* University. The financial condition of ths state is such as to need the most careful consid­ eration of the legislature. We are threat­ ened with a deficit and the appropria­ tions asksd for for various public enter­ prises are unprecedently large. It will be necessary^ therefore, for some of them While they are all un­ doubtedly deserving and must be sup­ ported as generously as possible, the State University is especially meritorious and it is to be hoped that tha way will become clear to give it all it needs. The people must make up their minds either to abandon the support of higher educa­ tion and turn it over to private institu­ tions, or they must give ths State Uni­ versity very generous help. Illinois is the greatest and richest state of the northwest and all our institutions should be correspondingly great. Wisconsin, Michigan ' and Minnesota, have given large amounts to their universities in the past and they are proposing this winter to appropriate more than ever. Illinois cannot afford to be behind. No interest before the people asking for aid will yield a richer return than an invest­ ment in higher education that shall be worthy of Illinois. The Fool Killer. An eastern contemporary in a pensive mood, felt the following flowing through his thought sieve and caught it up for his readers. Take a walk with as through any cem­ etery in the country, and you will believe that the fools are slowly passing away. You pass ths last resting plaee of the man who blew intoan empty gun, and the tombstons of the man who lighted the fire with kerossne. A grass carpet mound covers ths remains of the man who took the mule by the tpil. Th^ monument of the man who didn't know it was loaded, overshadows his who jumped from the train to save a ten yards walk. Side by side, lay the ass- thetic creature who kept her corset laced to the last hole„ and the intelligent idiot who rode a bicycle ninfe miles in ten minutes. Here reposes a doctor who took a doss of bis own medicine, and the old'fool who married a young wife. Right over yonder in the southweet cor­ ner the breezes sigh through the weeping willows that bend oyer his low bed of the fellow who called his mother-in-law a liar. Down there in the potter's field, with his feet sticking out to the cold blasts of winter and the blistering rays of the sum­ mer sun, are stretched the remains of the misguided regulator who tried to ^hip the editor. Over by the gate softly rests the boy who went swimming on Sunday, and the old woman who^iiljrays kept baking powdsr side by sids with strych­ nine in the cupboard. The fool killer gathers them in one by one, and bye an() bye we would have a decent world to liw in, were it not for the fact that the race continues to produce the same kind of idiots. ALGONQUIN.
