Nick Greuter, our Nippersink avenue grocer, has offered a reward of $50.00 for the apprehension and conviction of the culprit who projected a stone thru one of the front windows of his store early Thursday morning.

J. O'Boyle was school director Saturday, Burt Stanley by a vote of after many exciting skirmishes, in which the female contingent played the leading roles. Converse Marbles' aspirations were put to rout by the onslaught of feminine voters support­ ing the candidacy of Mr. O'Boyle. After the results were announced two young ladies acting as heralds, using a newspaper for a trumpet, shouted the glad tidings, running amuck thru the down-town district. Two elections in one week would seem to furnish a sufficiency of election excitement for some time. However, we have to go thru another one May 20, when "Red" Muench again runs for alderman to fill the vacancy caused by the resigna­ tion of Mayor-elect Ostrander. Bit FIR* Sear* at Pistakee Lake There was a big pre scare in Fox Lake Thursday when flames threatened the Pistakee house of the Knicker­ bocker Ice,, company. The fire bell rang shortly after dinner and two teams were pressed into service and re-elected defeating 112 to 35 the engine and hose truck were manned by the local firemen, who proceeded to the scene with all speed possible. This procession was augmented by the crew from the gravel pit in charge of Supt. Dandurand, who ordered a team attached to a lumber wagon, after which he transported his volunteer fighters to the conflagration on double quick time. However, Foreman Bould­ en of the Morris plant, which is near* by, had the good fortune to arrive in time to extinguish the fire . before it had gained enough headway to threat­ en serious damage. One of the work­ men, named Tony, is said to be the first to discover the fire, which is sup­ pose!) to have been started by someone throwing a match in the sawdust after lighting a pipe or cigarette. Election CAUBRAUAA Tuaetay Night Pertinent perspicacious political par­ agraphs: Exeunt--J. G. Brown. Veni, Vidi, Vici--Ostrander. Pro Bono Publico--II at first you don't succeed, try, try again "Red" Muench. Half a loaf is better than one--Ingle- side. Materia medica and therapeutics will not cure political ills--Fred C. Schultz. He Maypole a still larger vote next time. Beautiful sunshine will not dispel gloom of defeat. The unexpected happened Tuesday, April 15, when our mayor, J. G. Brown,, who has held the positidn since 1907, was ousted from power by one Colon H. Ostrander, who was triumphantly elected to that exalted position after a hard fought and strenuous campaign assisted by his loyal lieutenants, who seemed drawn to him by an irresistible force. This is the first change of mayor that we have had since the incumbency of Mr. Brown and our present mayor has before him a brilliant opportunity to distinguish himself, which we sin­ cerely hope he will embrace. Fox Lake is beginning to come into its own and we need a man at the helm who is gifted with rare executive ability and possessed with the courage of his con­ victions. The celebration subsequent to Mr. Ostrander's victory-was in some respects unprecedented in the Fox Lake region. Shortly after the news had percolated thru ihe down-town dis­ trict you could see men rushing down the hill from the village hall, their faces wreathed in smiles, shouting the returns to the eager assemblage. Rob­ ert Monahan, campaign manager for Ostrander, had an explosion of enthu­ siasm in the rear of Koeth's buffet that blew him from the rear door up to the cigar case in front, caroming against the bystanders during his flight and landing at the cigar case, where he fell on the neck of one of his col­ leagues and wept for joy. The con­ quering hero, the mayor elect, arrived shortly after and was hoisted to the top of a table, after which he made a short speech. From there he was car­ ried to Hotel Buenting, while one of his lieutenants carried a huge banner, upon which was inscribed the words: "Our new mayor, C. H. Ostrander-- Welcome to our new village." In the evening there was an impromptu ball at Koeth's hall, where Mrs. Ostrander arrived about 9:45 and received an ovation, and majestically made her en­ tree to the dance hall thru a lane of shouting and enthusiastic adherents of the mayor elect. / Arriving at the hall she was greeted by John A. Holt, our embryo classical police magistrate elect, who claimed the first dance. The festivities closed rather early, due perhaps to the fact that most of the voters and candidates had about ex­ hausted their physical energies negot­ iating the long and strenuous- cam­ paign and needed rest in anticipation of official and civic duties to be taken up shortly.
