F. G. Schreiner, Ed. and Pnb. MoHenry Plaindealer, Dear Sir--My brother, Val. J., and myself came ont to yonr burg last night to spend Snnday. We certainly had a delightful day at McCullom's lake, shooting mud bene in the foreuoon, of which we got the limit in short order. The aftqfnooh we spent it^ the woods shooting rabbits, of which we got quite a few. All iu all, we had a fine time. It seems 1 am better acquainted in Mc­ Henry than I am in Chicago.

I took advantage of a few idle bonrs calling on friends in East, West snd Middle Town, McHenry, and fonnd all feeling fine and seemingly doing a prosperous business. The hard times are over now. Hartayt Harray! Yonrs traly, i?, A, < .V Lambert §, SLLKK ^ Hare's a Qooii On*. A good joke is being told on two Borden employees these days. It ap­ pears that both of the gentlemen in question are qnite popular among their fellow employees. One day last week one of the two was presented with a mess of mud hens, while the other was given a wild hare by two of their brother workers. Not being familiar with the proper manner of preparing the game for thecwk at their respective homes, the gent who was presented with the aiud hens set ont to dry-pick bis birds, while the recipient of tbe hare *'picked" his game by tbe scalding pro­ cess. What a fine time these two gents had in dressing their game may be easily imagined by those fortunate enongh to know the correct style of per­ forming such tasks. Well, "Experience teaches," the good book tells US. yp, I Peter Meoleln Oea4. Peter Meelein, at one time a resident of McHenry and father of Mrs. Louie Oertel of this place, passed away at his home at 1334 Wolfram street, Chicago, on Tuesday, Oct. 5, after an illness of nearly six months, dropsy being the direct cause of his death. He'was born in Holland Oct. 26. 1831. His parents died when be was bnt a boy of 14, tbe death of his parents leaving him and one brother to care for themselves in this broad world. After the death of his parents the deceased came to Amer ica and settled in Chicago where he made his home for forty years. He re sided in McHenry a period of font years. He was 77 years, 11 mo., 8 daye of age at the time of hie death. Mc Henry friends extend to the sorrowing family their heartfelt sympathy.
