Farmers will be gratified to learn that a piratical potato bug killer in the form of a voracious parasite is preying upon the pest in some localities. It is cer­ tainly to be hoped that there will be enough of the "new remedy" for gen­ eral application. The rascals are trying to get the best of the farmers. The latest dodge is that rascals are travelling the country as temperance missionaries. They get their unsuspecting victims to sign a pledge of total abstinence, and then the pledge turns out to be a note. la Fine Boat. * Last Monday evening the writer bad the pleasure of being shown through Capt Walker's boat, Navigator, which is now making daily rnns between Mc­ Henry and the lakes. The Navigator has been rebuilt during the winter at the Hunter-Weckler Boat works apd is now one of the 'best boats that navi­ gates the viver and lakes. It is fitted up in first {lass style and is most de­ serving of all patronage that may go its way. Capt.

He strictly enforces the rules as are laid do An for the steamers on the Great Lakes and does everything to make his trips enjoyable for his guests.

Central opera house Friday and Safe urday evenings. Miss Anna Fleming and Mr. B. J. FrUbjr and MIM Mallle FrUbjr ud Harrjr Ba­ con are United in Wedlock. At St Patrick's church at high noon last Wednesday, June 21, was celebrat­ ed the nuptials of Mr. Bernard Joseph Frisby and Miss Anna Margaret Flem­ ing. The bridesmaid was Miss Nellie Frisby, sister of the groom, and the best man was Mr. Edmond Fleming, of Chicago, brother of the bride. The ushers were Mr. Harry Bacon and Mr. Walter Walsh. The bridal party marched up the aisle to the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march played by Miss Lucy Sutton. Rev. Father O'Neill, pastor of St. Patrick's church, officiated and the ring ceremony was used. The ceremony was most impressive, the subdued notes of the organ being wafted down while the solemn vows were plighted and the happy couple were pronounced husband and wife. The bride was attired in a lovely crea­ tion of crepe meteor over white taffeta silk, trimmed with accord eon plaited chiffon, and wore white shoes, gloves and veil, and carried a beautiful show­ er bouquet of bride roses. The brides­ maid wore a gown of champagne col­ ored silk eolienne, trimmed with cream lace and bljie Bilk, with hat and gloves to match. She carried pink roses. The church was tastefully deoorated with pink peonies and ferns. After the wedding servioe the newly married couple drove to the home of the bride, where an elegant repast was served to the immediate relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Frisby departed from Crystal Lake on the 8:80 p. m. train for Chicago. About fifty of their friend# had assembled at the station and show­ ered them with rice. They were the recipients of many beautiful and costly presents. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and rs. John Fleming and waa on* of the most efficient teachers in the Crystal Lake schools last year. To great natur­ al charms she has added the charms of rare culture and refinement, which has endeared her to a host of friends. She is an exceptional woman and is sure to make one of the loveliest and best of wives. The groom is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. John B. Frisby and be­ longs to one of the most prominent and influential families of the community. He is a young man of the most sterling worth and of the highest ideals. Mr. and Mrs. Frisby are going to build near the present family residence, and will be at home to their friends after October first.

At St. Patrick's church Tuesday at high noon occurred the marriage of Miss Nellie Frisby and Mr. Harry Baoon,both of this place. The vows so sacredly pronounced by their pastor, Rev. P. M. O'Neill, were repeated with much de­ votion and piety by the contracting parties. The bride and groom were attended by Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Frisby, who less than a week before had pledged them­ selves before the same altar, and who added much to the grass and solemnity of the occasion. The wedding inarch was played by Miss Loey Sutton, who gave two selec­ tions. The bride was handsomely attired in white point de sprit over white silk, with a long bridal veil, and carried a huge bouquet of white sweet peas. The matron of honor wore a gown of fine white texture and oarried pink roses. The gentlemen were in the conventional black attire. After the ceremony the wedding party was reoeived at the home of the bride's parents and a wedding break­ fast was served to the immediate rel­ atives.

The penalty for violation is a fine of $20 to $50. In the whole lake district the Chicago fisherman find nothing that so pleases them as the acquaintance of "Talkative Liz" the famous goose of Marble hotel at Long Lake. Liz is a genius and as a winner of hearts trie land must needs to be searched to find a better. Already she has won fame afar and has nearly been mentioned as co-respondent in a divorce case or two and has almost dis­ rupted a score of Chicago homes. It seems that men returning from fishing trips to the city have familiarly talked of Liz and told of he!* winning ways much to the chagrin of their uninitiated better halves who at once scented a wo­ man in the case. The truth of the whole matter is that Liz is a goose and otherwise would not be attracted by the Chicagoans who stop for a dsy or two to dip their flies into the water of the lake. Though Liz is a flirt of the first water and has earned mention in the Chicago prese her life history is simple and unromantio in the extreme. She arrived at Marble hotel in a gunny sack, a candidate for the frying pan, but was released for the time being in order that she might better fit herself for that end. Now instead of adorning the feast table she is the pet of the whole place and in picture and story is known in hundreds of homes in Chicago and all because she insists on being friends with everybody. A party of five prominent people of this city were automobiling last week, and while near Geneva Lake met a lady driving a white horse. The lady did not have red hair and it was several miles further on before the party dis­ covered the lady with auburn locks. The chauffeur was careful, and as they approached her, shut off power and turned the machine off of the road, and one of the gentlemen, whom nature has supplied with'a bountiful hirsute ap­ pendage, jumped out and started for­ ward towards the lady's horse. The horse had not evinced much fear before, but as the gentleman with the whiskers approached him the horse snorted and began backing up and finally backed the vehicle off the turnpike, and just as it went off he of the hirsute appendage grasped the bridle and prevented the horse from turning the buggy over. The machine was dead and the lady ex­ pressed her surprise, saying "Well, I don't know what is the matter with the horse. This is the first time he has ever shown the least bit of fear at one of them 'ar things and I have met at least a hundred of 'em." The gentle­ man then turned the horse's head, and, apparently for. the first time, the lady got a good look at the man who bad bold of the bridle. She Bmiled and said, "Oh, I guess I know what frightened him now." The gentleman said "What was it, lady?" and she, giving the old white horse a cut with the whip, and •«Qet up there, Bill," smilingly said, "Your whiskers." The gentleman flushed, and climbing back on his seat in the auto said," -- if there are any more horses to be 'held today some smooth faced man will do the holding." For the rest of the run he was mum as an oyster. We understand now he contemplates having his facial adornment trimmed.--Woodstock Re­ publican.

Although not classed as real summer resorts, the Park hotel and North-West­ er n hotel on the West Side come in for a goodly portion of the summer resort trade. Both hotels are fitted with all modern conveniences and patrons find them most delightful stopping places. The Rosedale hotel was never iu better condition than now. Under the careful and painstaking supervision of Landlord Larson the hotel has become one of the most popular in this part of the country. The beautiful grove in which the hotel and grounds are located makes it a most delightful stopping place. The fishing at this point is always good and boating and bathing go to make up the most en­ joyable pastimes for the guests. Ail the hotels at the Bay are now en­ joying a good run. S. J. Mellin's at Bald Knob is in the best possible condi­ tion and the guests at this popular re­ sort are being well cared for by Land­ lord Mellin. It is always a good place to stop.

Ben Stilling's hotel is the center of a most busy scene and during the past week many visitors have sought this popular resort for an outing.
