The welcome summer breezes Which %ave been blowing during the past week have brought ontmany to the lake and river resorts, and it will not be long ere the real activity will prevail. AH the proprietors of the various hotels and retorts afuauu the lakes* and flong the river are ready for the open­ ing of the ftutnmer season, to which they ltx»k forward with the greatest confidence * that the coming summer Will lie tine of the best that^they have pot in in Several years. With the nsual nntnbe* of improvements already made the Rents who cater to the sum­ mer trade are all smiles with the first real opening of sn miner. Beautiful Pistakee appears more beau- tifol than ever before, with its numer­ ous improvements and cleaning np. Qi)ite a number of new families will make their homes here the ooming sea­ son, and with its unusual number of attractions the people of Pistakee bid fair to see a season of greater activity than ever before. For the unusually bright prospects for the season, we feel that the new dam placed across Fox river is the main factor. Before the dam was put in quite a number of the lake and river reeorters had planned to leave these parts and seek fresh fields where run- nlug water I» more plentiful, bat since the building of the dam all have changed their minds and will be back. Not only this, bat in many cases the families have induced relatives and friends to come this way the coming summer. All in all, we look forth to a most successful season, and with every­ thing pointing in that direction we can­ not see why our prediction will not materialize. NEW TELEPHONES.

Miss Susie Zens, daughtar of Mrs. Elizabeth Zens, former residents of this place, showed herself to be a woman of nerve last Saturday evening at Wauke- gan by fighting oil a hold-up man. In re£-«rd to the incident the Wauksgan Gazette has the following to say: A mysterious and unaccountable at­ tack was made »t»on Miss Susie Zens, the seventeen y^er old daughter of Mrs. Zena of 759 M avion street, Saturday evening nbcnt # « clock, the assailant throwing a sack sover her hmA in his j attea>j»« to either rob or aasanlt her, The attack was made while the girl was walking from Helman's store in the Buck building oa Geneseo street, and the belief is that the fellow fol­ lowed her all the way with the express purpose in view of robbing her. . She has reached a point a short dis­ tance from her when of a sudden the stranger made*! jump at her, com­ ing up from behind. He carried a gun­ ny sack and this hs threw over her head, palling her to the ground as hs did so. Miss Zens made a hard fight againat the fello#1 and her valiant resistance evidently took him by surprise, because he did not remain long after he saw that ska was willing to fight him to the limit, i f The fellow, after he had thrown her t6 the sidewalk, struck her in the face and also kicked her a terrible blow in the side in his efforts to get her to osase her screaming and resistance. While the two wens fighting, a street car happened to pass along and as it appeared as if it were to stop near the corner where they were, the fellow evi­ dently concluded he had better make tracks and be left the girl lying on the walk and made off down the street. " Whether^ he had attacked her with the id«a of robbing her or whether his pur- poae was to assault her is not known, because the young woman made such a resistance tfiat the fellow had a hard Enough time of it preventing himself from getting hurt. Miss Sans certainly showed' herself to I* a young)woman of nerve and deter mination, and the next fellow who is planning to attack a woman had better pick out somebody else beside her, for, despite tin presenes of the sack abont her ttiaiiwke managed to pat up the moMMlenpetnte fight imaginable under the drcumstanoei. '"The attaak waa made in a .gark spot «UMt f*»ung woman was unable to ~ • ' ~ ,--® "~""™~Tajse wfcat tbe man looked like or wbeth> men *3 each.

They had reached a point near the Joseph Justen farm when tbe horse they were driving suddenly took fright at an automobile which was l>y the roadside. With one leap the trtglitened animal upset the buggy and at the same time unfastened itself from the tehiole, throwing tbe occu* pants to the ground with considerable force. Luckily, the two young ladies came out of it with only a few slight bruises, but the harness and buggy were damaged to a considerable extent.' The two young ladies were given assistance by the antoists aud brought back to town by Mr. Justen. The horse was captured after a wild run of about a mile and with the remnants of the har oees and buggy «rere returned to the owner, Wm. Simes. The victims of the accident are quite fortnnate in that the mishap resulted in no broken bones. The owners of the machine proved themselves to be gentlemen in every sense of the worg, in that they offered to pay the owner of the rig all damages. Natiee of Sale.

While to the outside world everything seems quiet in regard to the observance of Memorial day in McHenry, to those who have taken the matter in charge the prospeets for the day are beginning to loom up more brightly every day. A good program is already under prep­ aration and with Major R. H. Hender- «hoc, the origiual drummer boy of the Rappahannoek, and his son among us the day will be observed in a manner never betois equaled in McHenry. In regard to the major and his son, the Spring Valley (Minn.) Sun has the fol­ lowing to say : The boys of Spring Val­ ley Camp No. 90, Sons of Veterans, are immensely happy. On the evening of May 80 Major R. H. Hendershot, the original drummer boy of the Rappahan­ nock, and his son, an expert filer, ful­ filled their engagement with the camp in an entertainment in our opera house for the benefit of the camp. Our large opera house was filled from stage to door, the gallery was simply packed, and before the entertainment had fairly begun standing room was not to be had either on floor or in gallery, • The house was packed; many were compelled to leave, being unable to find .even stand ing room. The receipts of the evening were $160, expenses $4D, leaving a cool $1 11 net profit tor the camp. -The boys will not start a national hank, but will use the money in buying camp property and fixtures. A delegation from camp 88 at Le Roy were present, as well as old soldiers from the cxmntry for miles around. The manner la which Major Hendershot handles the drumsticks iA truly wonderful and thrills the hearts of the old soldiers as they have not been stirred since the war. His son is as much at home with the fife as is his famous father with the historic Horace Greeley dram. The entertainment gave the utmost satisfaction, everyone going home well pleased!
