Thru Months, #c Thursday, September 25, 1913 S3 WAKIQt Of A CWTBIY CUFFED FKOH FLAINDEALEK OT TWBHTY-FIVE YEARS ACO •i*lS W; 0, ; si t'i ; i The residence of Ed. Sayler, three tnUea south west, of this village, with it* entire COD tents, was totally de­ stroyed by fire on Thursday night last, Mr. Sayler and family having barely time to get out with what few things they could grab. The cause of the fire is unknown, the first intimation being the falling in of the roof to the kitch­ en, which awakened the family. Mr. Sayler loses his entire household furniture, bedding, clothing of himself and family, besides buffalo robes, blankets, etc. Loss about $2,000, on which there was not one cent of in suranoe. Mr. Sayldr has the sympathy of all in this misfortune. By invitation, with others, we vis­ ited the residence of Dr. A. S. Chi Ids ^ " on Monday evening to view a night '•'£,y blooming cereus in full bloom. To us £:;- it was indeed a curiosity, as we had ^never seen one before, and we must |i ->"V say it is a beauty. This plant is about P?£"4 ?4/, '• i': six years old and this is the first bios- aom. At the time we were there, W,'about nine o'clock, it was not fully . ^ open, but at that time it measured eight inches across, and we think when JW fully open it would measure ten inches. It was pure white and very fragrant. ^ ^ was a sight worth going to see. ^ fV (i '! Mrs. Childs is justly proud of this beautiful plant. i-J' Bursrlars broke into the drugstore <r <i , of J. A. Story on Thursday night IS Sif" last, ransacked the safe, which was P&'i' * unlocked, and one of the money draws, but were only rewarded by a few Hk*"' mutilated coins. The other draw, Pr' if1, which they failed to find, contained |L ' 1 ^six or eight dollars in silver. Prob- •ffl' ably finding their search for money % » unavailing they helped themselves to ' two boxes of cigars, which they prob- akly smoked to solace their disappoint- I'" v ment. They gained an entrance by v.'•> prying open a rear window, after at­ tempting to bore the lock off the rear door. The tools which they left proved ^ ? ' M1. 1/0 have been taken from Nordquist & Ip- Weber's blacksmith shop. Now that - r7'* these gentry are proved to be around 'v ' "our citizens should prepare to give them a warm reception.

" Anton Engeln says, uPy ehimminy gracious, dere is anoder one at our house." It is a girl and tips the scale at nine and one-half pounds. The new music and speakers' stand in the public square has been complet­ ed and is now receiving a coat of paint. It is a neat and tasty piece of work. H. V. Shepard has sold his hard­ ware business in this village to Jacob Bonslett, and an inventory of stock is being taken. A» soon as coApleted Mr. Bonslett will take possession. Hogs are dying by the hundred in Macon county. Nearly 800 died in that county within a week. A man from Arkansas went among the frightened farmers with a liquid cure and offered to pay for every hog that took the med­ icine and was not cured. This propo­ sition was accepted by a Mr. Thornhill and others and their hogs are getting well and eating heartily. Our citizens were shocked on Tues­ day morning to learn that Mrs. Slade, wife of Rev. H. SIsde, pastor of the Universalist church in this village, was found dead in bed at her rooms in the Riverside House, where Mr. and Mrs. Slade boarded. Mr. Slade was away, attending a religious convention. She had been feeling bad the early part of the night and Mrs. Calkins had ministered to her wants, but saying she would be better in the morning she retired. Not coming down to break­ fast at the usual time, some uneasiness was felt and Mrs. Calkins rapped at her door. Getting no response the door was burst in and she was found to be dead. She evidently passed away without a struggle, as she lay with her head upon her hand, with a calm and peaceful expression upon her counte nance. Heart disease is supposed to have been the cause of her death. Mrs. Slade was sixty yearfe of age and a lady whom to know was to lOve and respect. Her' remains were taken to Elgin on the 3:26 p. m. train on Tuesday. v A Leave: & North-Wmtfcttt. • ; f QtalcagOkl KOBTHBOOND/ UOEEN^ •TOO a m.;.*....... Vt» Elirln.. 10.18 a m li iiu.......

Green, sheriff of Lake county, subpoenaed the six women defendants in the sensational $100,000 damage suit filed by Mrs. Minnie Rich­ ardson, the woman who claims she was ridden on a rail. The women were ordered to appear for trial during the October term of court. It is not ex­ pected that the case will be called for trial during the October term, as it is customary to grant one continuance in such cases, and it is believed that this case will be put over until the Decem­ ber term. Altho State's Attorney Ralph J. Dady of Waukegan has a complete list of the men, women and children whom he intends to subpoena to testify before the grand jury, he has not given the required subpoenas to the sheriff at this time.
