"i... • -v, *.-"<• vi - ' " 1ST' The fbllowing article >*ftT'f8&:df In­ terest to many of The Plaindealer readers, fes Mrs. Belle Gallaher Wooster is a former McHenry girl and a grad- uSfte of the McHenry high school. The article is taken from a recent issue of the Milwaukee Sentinel.' "Startled surgeons halted their glis­ tening knives midway hi their inove toward the "human form rteetimbent on the operating table before them; white clad nurses, accustomed to peculiar phases of distraught patients, paused in their preparations for what a Mil­ waukee husband stationed in the visit­ ors' balcony was bracing himself to see as a most trying ordeal, while the sick and the dying in the wards never would have dreamed of the origin of a sweet, beautiful song~ which floated thru the corridors of a Minneapolis hospital hot many months ago. Altho the power­ ful anesthetic held her body in a pain­ less, sense-bereft grip, -at was some minutes later before its deadening fumes choked off the subconscious song of the patient, who, all ignorant of what she was doing, learned the par­ ticulars weeks after when health and strength had returned. By what some persons would term fate, others mere coincidence, th$ song was 'Good-by, Sweet Day.' "This weird experience was the sub­ ject of considerable comment-in Twin City papers at the time and is recalled by more recent prominence gained by the singer, a Milwaukee soprano, who has just completed a season as under­ study of the leading soprano in the magnificent pageant, 'Light and Dark­ ness,' given in connection with 'The World in Chicago,' a spectacle which attracted thousands of. Milwaukeeans to the Chicago coliseum during its run. This singer, Mrs. Belle Gallaher Woos­ ter, sang the chief part a half dozen times, gaining not only the unstinted applause of her hearers, but praise from the critics as well, it being a pop­ ular verdict that Mrsv Wooster might well have been given the role as prin­ cipal soloist. Thus again a Milwaukee singer has achieved fame which re­ verts as' much to the Cream City's Credit &s to that of the singer. "Mrs. Wooster is widely known in this city, where until last season she was prominent-in musical circles. Her mother, Mrs. W. F, Gallaher, 380 Parte Place, is a gifted singer and player and to her early training her daughter ascribes much of her present success. For a time Mrs. Wooster was soloist of the Grand avenue Methodist Epis­ copal choir and, has sung in many con­ certs and recitals locally. She may be considered as distinctly a Milwaukee product vocally, for besides her mother and Mrs. Iva Bigelow Weaver, Mrs. Wooster had no other training until the last winter. Her brother, W. FV Gallaher, Jr., is a barytone of splendid voice, who as soloist of the Lyrics and several church choirs gained a high place in Milwaukee's musio. He is now a member of the Alpha sextet in vaudeville, but at the expiration of his contract will join hta sister in her work in Chicago. JQ' ...H "Mrs. Wooster, encouraged t>y her success in the pageant, aspires now to opera, her inclination toward stardom having been increased by latent talent as an actress which she discovered was a valuable addition to her singing in the part of the Indian mother and the Hawaiian bride in the Chicago specta­ cle. Campanini has arranged to hear Mrs. Wooster on his return from Eu­ rope, with a view of utilizing her in the series of operas in English which the company proposes to try out as a Saturday night feature. " 'With me singing seems to mean life,' said Mrs. Wooster in an inter­ view during a visit with her mother in this city during the week. 'When I quit singing I invariably havje to go to the hospital. So I keep at it and since I have taken up vpcal art with more ambition than ever I hive gained thir­ ty-five pounds. I was amazed to find how well my voice filled that great Chicago auditorium, especially when I thought of the days when it seethed I never would get well.' "Associated with Mrs. Wooster in much of her work during the pageant was Ruth Lutiger Gannon, who has frequently been heard here under the auspices of Milwaukee singing societies. "The Rev. H. M. Pilcher, for many yean presiding elder of one of the Wis­ consin conferences of the Methodist Episcopal church, was Mrs. Wooster's grandfather. His fame as a singer was as great' as his pastoral success and his splendid voice was in constant demand at big revivals and services. Thus believers in the laws of heredity find further evidences that the virtues of one generation are passed along to another." WES&Y ITEMS J$ TMFTF NM M MUMS OR I ~ OUR MANY EXCHANGES.

Three children were born recently to women oonfined in the filgin insane asylum. ' According to the latest census, Ken­ osha, Wis., now has a population of. over 27,000 people. Albert Grover was killed in a fall from a tree at his home in Crystal Lake last Thursday. The citizens of Libertyville expect to see free mail delivery in their vil­ lage at a near future date. The city council of Lake Geneva has provided three drags for use in the lake in the event of drowning. The Elgin watch factory closed cTS^vn last week Wednesday for the mid-sum- mel vacation. The big institution re­ opens next Monday. - , Harvard is to have a city Jorester, whose duties will be to see that trees are trimmed along the sidewalk lines and otherwise taken care of. Waukegan has a "Jack-the-Hug- ger." He accosted five young ladies of that city last Saturday night. The victims have threatened to. carry re- volvers hereafter. The gigantic plant of the Corn .Products Refining company at Wauke­ gan will shut down indefinitely on July 20. One thovfeand hands are em­ ployed at the plant. The women of Waukegan are al­ ready beginning to take an interest in politics. The voters among the fair sex in that city are already demanding a rigid enforcement of the lawa. The Bochius Leather and Embossing Co. of Chicago has an option on the defunct Atlas Belting company factory building at Harvard and will rapye to that city soon. The concern now em­ ploys thirty ?&ve hands. The last trip of the Wa'ucohda, Lake Zurich and Barrington mail coach was made on June 30. On Tuesday morn­ ing, July 1, Wauconda received her first mail ever delivered in that village over a steam railroad. The Fourth of July celebration at Waukegan proved a big success. The Knights of Columbus of that city, un­ der whose auspices the celebration was held, expect to realise a profit of about $1,500 as a result. Over 3,500 pounds of milk is being produced daily on the Tilden farms near Delavan Lake, Wis. The dairy comprises 159 cows and twenty-seven men are employed on the farm, which Don tains 1000 acres of land. A valuable horse, the property of Horace Freeman of Greenwood, was struck and killed by an automobile one night last week. The auto was driven by a Chicago man, who was on hla'way to Lake Geneva at the time. Hebron, which has the reputation of •having as many if not more automo­ biles than any other town of its size in this section, also boasts of having many lady drivers, who drive their cars anywhere and in all aorta of weather. Harvard will entertain the annual picnic of the Milk Producers' associa­ tion on July 30. The commercial club of that city is making extensive, prep­ arations to take care of the large crowd that is expected, officials of the club assuring the association that fully lOjOOO^people will be in attendance. A deed was filed In the recorder's office of DeKalb county on July 1 by which all the property of the Wood­ stock-Sycamore Interurban Traction company, operating a line between Sycamore and Marengo by gasoline, was conveyed to the Chicago, Wauke­ gan and Fox Lake Traction company. Receiver Johnson of the Chicago and Milwaukee Electrjc recently was au­ thorized by Federal Judge Landis to purchase the Waukegan and Fox Lake traction lines from ita owners for •56,000: Whether the sale wtw^ever consummated is not known. That the two roads will connect and a complete line be established between Waukegan and the lake resorts is the belief of men who are acquainted with the con­ ditions. What the owners of the Chi­ cago, Waukegan and Fox Lake Trac­ tion company paid for the Sycamoite Interurban Traction company is not known. Another report is that Sam­ uel Insull and his interests propose to purchase the two lines and establish a complete net work of interurban lines in Cook, Lake, McHenry, Boone, Winnebago and other nothern |Uwis oountiea. ;TT* IJtlllttMUAV LARGE NONDE* OF MTTLS ARE ALLOWFLFT -I Council Room, Jlrly 7, The board of trustees met in regular session with President Stoffel presid­ ing.

I A PLEASANT OUTTM About forty business men and osiers of this place attended the business men's picnic held on the banks of Fox river, a short distance below the dam, on Tuesday of this week. The first boat left, as advertised, about 5:00 a. m. and carried fifteen passengers. Among the first fifteen were the cooks, who assisted materially in making the event the big success that it proved to be. The next boat brought fifteen more to the grounds, while the last boat swelled the crowd to the number of about forty. Owing to the fact that the event followed so closely after the Fourth, quite a few could not take part in the day's hilarities, but we are told that the boys will be given another oppor­ tunity some time next month. The event was enjoyed to the fulleat extent by those in attendance. METHODIST CHURCH NOTES Sunday school, 10:00 a. m., July 13 1913. Morning service, 11:00 a. m. Address by the pastor.

EDWARD QUIGLEY MARRIED James Edward Quigley, a former Me­ Henry boy and of late years a resident of Woodstock, where he is employed at the Oliver typewriter factory, was recently united in marriage to Miss Sadie Voss of that city. The marriage took place at St. Mary's Catholic church parsonage in the Typewriter city and was performed by Rev. Father Coway. The bride, until the time of her marriage, was also an employe at the county seat cify's chief industry. McHenry friends extend congratula­ tions. NORTHWESTER!̂ CLEANS STATKMF The Chicago &• Northwestern rail­ way company now sends out a oouple of men each week to clean the McHenry statftm. We understand that they do this kind of work all along the line and it is a good thing. The employes at the local station have their hands full in discharging their regular duties and would find little time to look after the janitor duties. The new system of sending men Ijere to do this work is not only appreciated by the public, but by the employes of the station as well- ̂ ICE CREAM SOCIAL The Dorcas society will give an ice cream social on the lawn at the home of Mrs. I. A. Hungerford on Saturday evening, July 12. The ice cream and cake will be the best and a good time is promised you, so come and brin^ your Mends.

Math. Freund is agent for the Slaw buggy. See him for prices, eto. Miss Maude Schau of Chicago spent the latter pfcrt of last week at the fam­ ily summer tiome on Fox river. , The excursion boats along the'river and at the lakes hauled hundreds of passengers during the holidays. The camping season is again with us and numerous camps are to be found along the river and at the lakes. Miss Pearl Jacobus of Chicago passed the latter part of last week as a guest in lihe F. H. Schau cottage on Fox river. C. M. Buel and family and Miss Ag- nes Dorley of .Elgin are spending a few weeks' outing at the Harding cot­ tage on Fox river, near McHenry. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Whiting, Mr. and Mrs. tl. Dillon, Mr. and Mrs. A LeClarie and Mrs. Conner and chil dren of Chicago are enjoying an out­ ing at McCollum's Lake. We notice thfct quite a number of the cottagers along the river and at the Bay have installed electric lights in their homes and on their grounds sinoe last season. The free dances at Mertes' every Saturday night are becoming quite widely advertised. A number of young people from neighboring towns have been seen at the hall of late. Mr. and Mrs. G. "Doerk and daugh­ ter, Harriet, of Chicago passed the week-end with Mr. and Mrs. George Evans, who are occupying the Quinn cottage on the river for the summer. All of the hotels in McHenry, along Fox river and at Pistakee Bay were packed during the holidays. Thecrowds were the largest ever. J. C. Bickler, proprietor of the McHenry House, in­ forms us that he turned away 120 for dinner on Sunday. Injuries received at the Elgin road races last August led to a suit for $50,- 000 filed by Mrs. Ralph R. Graham, daughter of William Lorimer of Pista­ kee Bay, in the circuit court of Kane county last week against the Chicago Motor club and pilomotors of the race. It will be remembered that Mrs. Gra­ ham was quite severely injured when a portion of the grandstand collapsed during the races. The informal opening of the Pitta-, kee Yacht club at the club house pa­ vilion at Pistakee Bay last Friday even­ ing was very well attended and judg­ ing from the manner in which the club has opened the season, 1913 should prove one of the best ever enjoyed by that body of resorters. The dance at the club the following evening also brought out a good crowd and a good time waa enjoyed by all. The following clipping taken from the Bemidji (Minn.) Daily Pioneer will be of interest to Plaindenler readers, as the people concerned are resorters here, having summer homes at Emer­ ald Park: "Starting at eight o'clock Saturday morning and paddling eight hours a day, Paul Armstrong and sons, Lennox, Horace and Paul L. Armstrong; John Armstrong and son, John O. Arm­ strong, and Richard Patterspn paddled from Lake Itasca to Bemidji in just 24 hours in three canoes. The young men hadlao trouble because of low water and no time was lost on the entire trip. They had planned to travel to Grand Rapids, but as they are forced to re­ turn to Chicago, where they make their home, they will end their trip at Betnidji." GREAT MCHENRY COUNTY PAIR The time is approaching when the people of McHenry county should be­ gin to > make their preparations for | their great fair, which will held in Woodstock, August 28 to 29. Secre­ tary Theo. Hamer has prepared the premium lists, which have been con­ siderably revised under his direction. Mrs. J. A. Bayrd, superintendent of the woman's building, has had the sev­ eral superintendents of herdepartmenta rtoVise their lists and much of interest will be found to women exhibitors in the art, needle work, fabrics and tex­ tile departments. The new premium lists will be ready for mailing in a few days and all those desiring same will address the secretary. From present indications the fair of 1913 will equal that of any of its predecessors. There is a strong sentiment in the county for a county fair. Thd management is en­ deavoring to keep alive the interest by offering liberal premiums in gjl de­ partments and providing races, i)all games and other amusements that will please the public.^ WENT INTO EFFECT TUESDAY--READ 'EM OVER ELGIN A. C. NEXT SUNDAY Next Sunday afternoon the Elgin Athletics will be here to do battle with the fast-goine McHenryites. The Elgin Athletics are considered just as strong a team < as the Elgin Franklins and a good game is assured. McHenry is now going at top notch speed and is Out to bang up a record never be­ fore equaled by a team wearing a Mc­ Henry uniform. Game called at usual time and the same prices of admission will prevail. Turn out and, wateh a real contest. Movies atr the Air' AMMO) park, every night. The bill abolishing the state fish ahd game departments and creating the State Game and Fish Conservation commission has passed the -legislature and became effective Jnly 1, 1913, This cancels all commissions to fish and game wardens, whose positions will be filled by five state fish and game wardens and sixty deputy game wardens who will be required to pass state civil service tests. No provision is made for special deputy wardens other than constitut iag sheriffs and constables as ex-offi cis special deputy wardens who shall receive as their fees one-half of the fines collected upon convictions secured by them. The most important change in the fish laws is in the "possession" clause, which prohibits any person having in his possession any of the following mentioned fish which are less than the length specified for each: "Black bass, 1^1 inches; pike or pick­ erel IN inches; white or -striped bass, 8 inches; croppie, 8 inches; rock bass, 6 inches; yellow or ringed perch, 7 inches; pike perch or wall-eyed pike, 12 inches." This section provides "that K-jany such undersized fish are taken, the person taking it shall immediasely re­ turn it to the waters from which it was taken, without unnecessary injury to the fish. Black bass, pike or pickerel, or pike perch (wall-eyed pike), can be taken only with a hook and line held in the hand or attached to a rod held' in the hand." The penalty is <10 to $200 for each undersized fish or for each black bass, pike or pickerel caught in any manner contrary to the law. Trammel nets are abolished and seines, are limited to 600 yards in length. \ The law-also empowers and author­ izes the commission to set aside waters as state fish preserves, in. which it is unlawful to fish with any device except hand line or rod and line. The penalty for the first offense is $50 to $100 and and $100 to $200 for the second, and in either case offenders shall stand com initted to the county jail to remain un til such a fine and costs are fully paid A movement is already on foot to have the Fox, Rock, Dcsplaines and Kankakee rivers and all waters tribu tary set aside as fish preserves. The principal changes in the game laws are as follows: Open season for prairie ehiokens Nov. 11 to 24, both inclusive. Open season for mourning doves Aug. 16 to Oct. 31, both inclusive. Open season for squirreL July 1 to Nov. 15. * Closed season on wild turkey, sand grouse, partridge and all kinds of pheasants extended to July 1, 1920. No protection on any kind of black­ bird*. It is Unlawful to feed any kind of seeds or grains, or to bait any wild goose, wild duck, brant or other wild water fowl for the purpose of shoot­ ing, trapping or ensnaring them. No person who is not a citizen of the United States or who has not declared his intentions to become such can se­ cure a hunting license. It is unlawful to hunt rabbits with ferrets. r Whenever a license shall have been issuedtto any person under the provi­ sions of this act, and such licensee shall violate any of the provisions of this act, the license so 'issued shall immediately be revoked by the com­ mission. This applies to all hunting and fishing licenses. A line of $20 to $100 is the penalty provided for anyone.. who resists or obstructs or interferes with afiy game warden in the discharge of his duties.

Rotnour announces the personal appearance of Miss Flora l^eVoss in The Girl From Out Yonder" at the Central opera house Sunday evening, July 20. The company is well known here and with Miss DeVoss appearing personally in one of the very best plays of her career standing room will doubtless be at a premium. "The Girl From Out Yonder" is a nautical comedy drama in four acts, in which Miss DeVoss has a part to her liking and to her peculiar line of comedy and pathos. She will be assisted by the well balanced cast which has always been associated with the name. All special scenery is carried for the pro­ duction between all acts high-class vaudeville will be introduced as usual. The company for this season is some­ what larger than before and Mr. Rot­ nour assures something out of the ordinary for July 20. .

The crowd at the first showj^': V'S packed both places to the entrance^ while the second shows were also visit-*4 ^ ed hy a goodly number.

A notioo regarding the licensing of dogs appears elsewhere in this issue. We are told that the police officers of the village have been instructed to take care of all dogs found running at large without the proper license tag. If you are a dog owner and haven't: attended to this matter it would be; well to do so between now and next Saturday. Aulger Bros.' tent show waa billed in here on Tuesday.
