Rotheruiel Are Marled at St. Mary's Tueitday Morning. St Mary's Catholic church, in this village, was the scene of one of the pret tiest weddings that was ever solemnized within its walls, last Tuesday morning, when Mr. William George Schreiner and Miss Carolyn Elizabeth Rothermel were united in the holy oonds of matri mony, the ceremony being witnessed by nearly two hundred people. At the appointed hoar, 9:80 a. m., the wedding march was started from the main entrance of the church. The march was led by Miss Carolyn Niesen and F. G. Schreiner, who acted as bridesmaid and best man, respectively. Following came two little flower girls, the little Misses Verona Niesen and Regina Rothermel, with the bridal pair following in the rear. The march was a most beautiful one and was very capa bly rendered by Miss Rose Justen.. The spectacle was one to be remembered by those in attendance. The bridesmaid was handsomely attired in a gown of pink, with hat to match, and carried a boquet of pink bridal roses. The flower girls were dressed in white and also carried boquets. The bride was most beautifully gqwned in a dress of white, with a veil and wreath to match. She took the part most gracefully, quickly winning the admiration of all present. Upon reaching the altar, all look their respective places. The bridal pair stood in the center with the attendants on either side, one flower girl'and.the bridesmaid to the left hand while the other flower girl and the best man stood to the. right. Rev. M. W. Barth then spoke the sacred words which made the two one, after which high mass was celebrated. At the conclusion of the ceremony a return march was made to the rear end of the church, where the happy young couple received the'usual congratula tions as the audience passed out, A very rare circumstance concerning the wed ding was that both the flower girls and the bridesmaid are nieces to the bride. A wedding reception was given at the home of the groom's mother, which was attended by a large number of rel atives and friends of the couple. A beautiful display of useful -presents were received during the day. The couple left on the 4:23 afternoon train, amid a shower of rice, for Chi cago. They were accompanied as far as Crystal Lake by a number of young people from McHenry, who appeared to be very much interested in seeing that the newly wedded ones should not take the wrong train at the crossing. They will remain in Chicago for a few days visiting among relatives and friends. Mr. and Mrs. Schreiner will be at home to their friends after June 10, at which time they expect to be nicely settled in the Frank Rothermel house on North Water street. Their home is already completely furnished and ready for their home arrival. The bride is the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mr Geo. Rothermel, two of our most respected citizens. She was born and raised in McHenry and among the yonng people has always been a popular favorite. She is possessed a loving disposition, which has served to win her many a dear friend. The groom is the youngest son jof Mrs. George Schreiner of this place. He, also, everyone is well »ware of, is an entire stranger to all of oitr citizens, a fact which necssitatesan introduction. The best way we know of in intorduc- ing him, is to say that he is the young gentleman who has been in the employ of Jos.W. Freund, the West Side cloth ier, for the past few years. He is a model young man--a more jolly, good- natured young man never lived. His friends are numbered by the score, and if he has a real enemy in this world we are utterly ignorant of the fact. The Plaindealer joins the wide circle of relative and frienda in aat|tading congratulations. Dance.

Mr. Bonslett, in company with an agent by the name of Wheeler, repre senting the Rockford Manufacturing company, were on their way to Ring- wood, with a horse and buggy. Having crossed the Nippersink creek bridge, near the Frank Miller farm, Mr. Bons lett spied a large red devil wagon ap proaching them from the north. Al though Mr. Bonslett's horse does not shy at automobiles, the driver pulled onto the right side ef the road to give the auto its sido of the street. Like a flash of lightning the big auto flew past them and the next second saw both the occupants 6f the carriage lying in the ditch and the buggy upset. The driver of the machine, in passing, drove so close as to become entangled in the har ness on the horse, with the result given above. The force tore the harness com pletely off the horse's back, and it is a miracle that both men did not lose their lives. Mr. Wheeler, who was the less in. jured, got up at once to get the number of the machine, but ere he did so the machine had gone such a distance that the number could not be distinguished. The auto was occupied by two men and two women. He at once picked up Mr, Bonslett, who was suffering terribly, put him in the buggy, caught the horse and rigged up the harness the best way possible and started for town. Arriv ing at Mr. Bonslett's home, Dr. D. G. Wells was at once summoned. After a careful examination it was found that the victim suffered from two dislocated ribs and an ugly gash near his left ear. The accident is causing Mr. Bonslett no small amou&t of suffering and will lay him up for at least a month. Being seventy-four years of age, the accident may prove more serious to the victim than is now thought for. It is only about a week ago that Jacob Bush met with a similar accident at Lily Lake, and it is certainly going the limit. To see some of the auto drivers on the public highways one is led to $hink that the highways were for their exclusive use and that no otjier person had a right to the streets. It has al ready reached a point where it isn't safe for a farmer's wife to come to town alone, and unless something is done at once, what is to become of us who can not afford a devil-wagon reraa;nstobe seen. W e will say that there are some very careful drivers of autos, but the larger per cent, of them are ever testing the speed of the machine. Nearly ev ery day machines are seen going thru this village faster than the village ordi nance allows, A few arrests wonld be as good a remedy as we know of. The Farmer Boys. We are not given to boasting, but we are proud of the farmer boys of this vicinity. They are, with rare excep tions, a healthy, intelligent and happy class of young men. We feel like tak ing our hat clear off when we meet them upon our streets, and there is no class more welcome to our office. Too many boys leave the farm, where they wonld make substantial and good citi zens, and go to the city, where only one in a thousand succeeds in life's battle. There are farmers who fairly drive their boys away. There is no excuse for this. The farmer boy is entitled to his vaca tions, to several relaxations, his visits to the city, good books, magazines aud his home paper. To the observing one it is plain to be seen that the old farm is the best in the world for the average young man and never fails to bring a happier and more useful life than the city. Young men, yon who till the soil and earn your bread by" the sweat of your brow, we are proud of you; you will always have a friend in this paper. Come aad see us and give us the news of your neighcorbood. Cured of Bright's Disease. Geo. A. Sherman, Lisbon Red Mills, Lawrence Co., N. Y., writes: "I had kidney disease for many years and had been treated by physicians for twelve years; had taken a well known kidney medicine and other remedies that were recommended but got no relief until I began using Foley's Kidney Cure. The first half bottle relieved me and four bottles have cured me of this terrible disease. Before I began taking Foley's Kidney Cure I had to make water about every fifteen minutes, day and night, and passed a brick like substance and sometimes a slimy substance. I believe I wonld have died if I had not taken Foley's Kidney Cure." G. W. Besley. Township School Exercise*. The township exercises, to be given by the pupils representing the schools of Sherman Hill, Harsh district and Ringwood, will be held at the M. W.

Merchant of Venice Makes a Tremend ous Hit with Audience--Is "Very Well Pre sented--Large Attendance. The graduation exercises of the Mc Henry high school of 1906 will go down in history as^not only one of the best but as the very best every presented by any class in the history of the school, at least, such is tbe opinion of the five hundred people who were in attendance at the Central opera house last Tuesday evening. The evening was a most delightful one for the occasion, it Seemed as if our tjord had directed the thoughts of those concerned in selecting this very night for the 1906 exercises. People were in from all parts of the country and iere the time had arrived for the exercises to take place the streets of McHenry, es pecially that of Green street, represent ed that of a Fourth of July celebration. Before saying anything in regard to the evening's program, we wish to throw just one boquet in regard to the fine way that the enormous crowd was handled. The seats were so arranged as to make it as comfortable' as possible for the audience, and not one single dis turbance was caused throughout the en tire program. The balcony was re served for the school children, who were in charge of the ushers of the different rooms. Rev. 4. Roberts opened the exercises with the customary invocation, which, was followed by a salutatory by Gilbert Clayton Ross. Miss May Irene Mc Omber came next with a valedictory. A vocal duet by Misses Harriet Irene Lamphere and Zue Adelaide Gallaher was so well received that a response to the applause was made necessary. Al- ford Pouse made the junior address, which was responded to by Miss Mar garet Catharine Ward. Edwin Evan- son, with Miss Louise Evanson as ac companist, next favored the audience with a beautiful violin solo. He was also asked to respond, to the wishes of those present, to a second selection. Prof. E. C. Fisher in a short, but well chftsen speech, then presented the diplo mas. Every number was most capably rendered. The speakers, each and every one of them, spoke in a clear, distinct tone, so distinct that every word could be plainly heard in every section of the spacious opera house. In his speech Mr. Fisher thanked the McHenry people for the interest they have taken in the school and their chil dren, pointing out the fact that the class of 1906 are boys and girls to be proud of, and in this statement the speaker spoke most correctly. He also pointed out in a brief way the value of a good education, urging the people to keep right on with the same good Bpirit they have shown during the past year. 'He also made plain the high standing of our school, it now being accredited to the Northwestern academy at Evans- ton, Beloit college at Beloit, and at the state university at Champaign. Dur ing Mr. Fisher'B four years as head of our public school be has brought it to such a high standard that it now stands second to none in the county. Truly are we sorry to lose him, but the good work done will ever be remembered, especially by those who had the ex treme pleasure of receiving their edu cation under his direction. No father can feel more proud of his son or daugh ter than does Mr. Fisher of his classes which he annually turns out. No father can or will take more interest in his son or daughter than does the subject (of whom we speak) take in the children he is preparing for their battles in life. Why should he not feel proud of them, for well he knows the good they will derive from the knowledge they have obtained from him- a knowledge which will serve to make life's battle an easier as well as more pleasant one for them. Larit, but not least, do the citizens of McHenry feel very sorry to see this good man and his estimable family leave us, but we hope that bis future efforts, like those of the past, will b6 crowned with success. Also do we con gratulate the citizenH of Dundee on their being able to secure the services of Mr. Fisher for their school. < Time and space will not permit ns to mention in detail the presentation of The Merchant of Venice, but will vent ure to say that it was one of the most capably presented plays ever seen in McHenry. The following are the names of the of the 1906 graduates: May Irene McOmber, Margaret Catharine Ward, Harriet Irene Lamphere, Mayme Lam phere Granger, Zue Gallaher, Mary Knox, Edwin Evanson, Emery Wheeler, Gilbert Clayton Ross, Paul Doherty. DINNER A SUCCESS. Blvwnlde Dining Hall Formally to the Public. ; « Opened new dining balt %f <1^ Riverside House w'as formally opened to the public on Decoration day with a grand dinner. Altho the bad condition of tbe roads and the threatening weath er kept many from attending, nearly one hundred people were present. The dinner itself was one of the most elaborate ever spread to the public. It consisted of all the delicacies which the season afforded. The spacious dining hall was appropriately decorated with bunting, flags, palms, ferns and flowers aud presented^ most beautiful appear ance. It was, indeed, a beautiful sight to behold. In the east end of the hall was seated Kirtland's famous Chicago six-piece or chestra, which furnished by far the finest music ever listened to In McHen ry. Every number of the long program was presented in an artistic manner, and to say that it was very much en joyed is putting it rather mildly. A fact which the public will be pleased to learn fe that this organization will be at the Riverside every Sunday thrnottt tbe slimmer. Many compliments were passed in regard to the dinner, entertainment and fine hospitality received during the day, and it is to'be hoped that the season of 1906 will be a most successful one for the Riverside of today.

Mr. Went worth is a practical brick maker, knows the business in all its minutae, and with his knowledge of human nat ure is evidently the right man in tbe right place.

To do this, however, prompt action is nec essary. The first symptoms of a cold are a loud, dry cough, a profuse watery discharge from the nose, and a thin white ceating on the tongue. When Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken every hour on the first appearance of these symptons it counteracts the efiect of a cold and restores the system to a healthy condition in a day or; two.
