Otters, comes the 1916 Empire--Model 33 tourfng^ar. New models have no signifi­ cance if numbers alone are changed--the Empire Model 33 is an advanced car through­ out, the result of ,exhaustive experimental work and a year's testing. We had not intended announcing this new model for months to come, but the demand of Empire dealers and customers took every one of our 1915 models before March 1--took every car we had to offer. This tremedous demand for the Empire gives the car buyer the opportunity of securing this wonderful 1916 model this spring. . In this latest Empire are combined many new features. There is that attention to detail of body da- •ign and general finish heretofore considered impossible in a car selling for less than $1,400. Size, power, quality and equipment, considered separately or collectively, give the Empire Model 33 rank above all cars of its class. It retains the sturdiness, ability, economy and easy riding qualities that have made the Empire famous--and this now to an even greater degree. Note carcfr.lly these refinements. fffcgger In «very way than any previous Empire--the wheel base is 112 inches. No other car colling for $975,000 has. such length. This long wheel base . with longer, especially designed springs makes tfte Empire the easiest riding car in the American Held, 'Jblrger four-cylinder motor developing 35 horsepower, ' •increasing again the reserye power for which the -. Empire cars are noted. Weight well below 2, - -^pounds, assuring economy oi fuel and tires. " ii*ft -side drive with center control--greatest coft* -venience for driver and passengers. Streamline flush side body of extra roominess. Tbfjf standard body color la Brewster green. New type upholstery of genuine leather afford maximum, com­ fort. floating single bearing rear axle--this construc­ tion takes all weight from the driving shafts and absolutely prevents oil reaching brakes. Five-bow one-man top--accurately described by its nvne. Five-bow tops, with inside quickly operated curtains, have heretofore been limited to cars sell­ ing for several' hundred dollars more than the Empire. Remy electric starting and lighting fully guaranteed for one year--this starting installation requires no intermediate gears or clutches. Silent and positive 1 in operation. No other car to our knowledge carries * & manufacturers' one-year warranty on electrla - equipment. Extra largo, rounded top honey-comb radiator--cells of expanding type to prevent bursting in case of freezing. Combination headlights--powerful searchlights for country driving with small dim lights for city use. Low center of gravity because of the dropped frame --car holds road at all speed--prevents skidding and lessens tire wear. „•" Study these, points carefully. Do you know of any car at less than ?1,400 which combines stich points of ex- ^viflllence? And they are but a few of the many Empire extra-value features. As dealers for the Empire product In thia territory we invite you to call and inspect this beautiful, sturdy 1916 model* and by demonstration prove to you the capabilities of this advanced car.

Score 6 to 3. The visitors represented a nice, clever team of ball tossers and they won the game for the simple reason that they played better ball than the local squad. Costly errors were chief­ ly responsible for McHenry's down­ fall and with perfect support "Red" Delehanty would have won his game. Johnny Koob started the trouble for "Red" right in thd opening round whep he dropped a tiny pop-up from the bat of Daly. This miscue sort of unbalanced our port-side twirler and the visitors were right on the job to take advantage of the opening afforded them. Three runs were registered be­ fore the side was retired. By counting two in the first *n<* ok© In the third McHenry tied the score and the game went on with three all until the eighth inning, when the vis­ itors counted tfc roe more runs, a muff by Koob again starting the trouble for the home lads. McHenry tried hard to come back in the last of the eighth and ninth inning but Nemac had them well In hand further scoring for our lads was pre­ vented with apparent ead(& • Thus the story goes: •<* First inning: Koob dropped Dttly's fly. McNamara drew a base on balls, Daly going to second. Both runners advanced a notch on a passed ball by "Chief" Meyers. Comiskey failed to handle Seablom's roller, the error allowing the two runners to score. Seablom stole second and went to third on another passed ball by Meyers. Conway flew out to Bowen in center. Listig laced a single to left, the hit scoring Seablom. Butzow fanned and Keegan went out on a fly to Riley. One hit, three runs. Riley sent a neat single to center and stole second while Comiskey was fanning. - Brailsford sacrificed, Riley going to third while Brailsford was thrown out at first by Conway. Bowen uncorked a stinging double to left, the hit scoring Riley. Bending singled to center, Bowen scoring from second. Warner was retired on a fly to Conway. Three hits, two runs. Second inning: Burns was retired by Riley and Warner. Nemac fanned. Daly walked and stole second. Mc Namara struck out. No hits, no runs Koob fanned. Meyers was retired by McNamara and Listig. Delehant sent an easy roller down to Listig at first. No hits, no runs. Third inning: Delehanty and War­ ner took care of Seablom. Conway and Listig fanned. No hits, no runs. Riley doubled to center and caine home when Listig made an awful mess of Comiskey's grounder. Comiskey stole second and third. Brailsford fouled to Bums. Bowen and Bending struck out. One hit, one run. Fourth inning: Riley and Warner got Butzow. Keegan fanned. Burns was safe at first on Riley's error, Burns stole second. Nemac out Riley to Warner. No hits, no runs. Warner out on foul to Burns. Koob singled past third base and was oaught stealing second. Meyers fanned. One hit, no runs. Fifth inning: Daly out, Delehanty to Warner. McNamara doubled right. Seablom out, Koob to Warner, McNamara taking third on the sacri flee. Conway hit one to left field which to the visiting players as well as many fans looked safe, but the um pire ruled it a foul ball. A three minute argument then took place after which all hands decided to take the ump's decision and go on with the game Conway then struck out. One hit, no runs. Riley out, McNamara to Listig Comiskey sent a fly to short right McNamara and Butzow both went after the ball only to stand and watch the pill fall between them. Comiskey overran first to draw the throw, but could not get back in time and was killed right then and there. One hit, no runs. Sixth inning: Listig and Butzow fanned. Keegen out, Comiskey to Warner. Brailsford was out on a fly to Listig. Nemac and Listig retired Opfergelt and Bending. Opfergelt replaced Bowen in center in this inning. No hits, no rims. Seventh inning: Rilej and Warner got Burns. Nemac was safe on Riley's error. Comiskey copped Daly's hot drive and shot the ball to Warner in time to complete the double. No hits, no runs. Warner and Koob were retired by Nemac and Burns. Meyers singled to right. Delehanty went out on a fly to right field. One hit, no runs. Eighth inning: McNamara fanned. Seablom was safe on first on Koob's error. Conway shot a triple to center, Seablom scoring. With three balls and one strike called on Listig, Dele­ hanty was taken out of the box and re­ placed #ith Sahlberg. Listig walked. Butzow connected for a triple to center, the hit scoring Conway and Listig. Keegan was retired on a fly to Bending in left and Riley got under Burns' short fly. ( Two hits, three runs. McNamara and Listig got Riley. Conway and Listig retired Comiskey and Brailsford fanned. No hits, no runs. ner. Seablom out, Comiskey to War­ ner. No hits, no runs. Opfergelt struck out.

F--i F«r F«na Bending made a pretty running catch of Keegan's line drive in the eighth. Tough luck for "Red" after striking out ten men and allowing but three hits. The visitors were a olassy hall club, but we still believe that McHenry can beat them. Nemac and Listig retired four bats­ men in succession in the Sixth and seventh innings. Johnny Riley sure did have his clouting rags on. A single and double in one afternoon isn't bad at all The triples by Conway and Butzow in the eighth inning both went to dieep center. Opfergelt tried hard to get to them. Bowen's double in the first inning scored the first run of the day for our side. We like the way that Bowen steps into them. Comiskey had an exceptionally good day at third. His stop of Keegan's hard drive in the sixth was one of the feature plays of the day. CamMOumUr and N*n4ay The Chicago Riverviews will be here next Sunday and Monday (Me­ morial) day. This team played here on two different occasions last year. Their first appearance on the home diamond was on Sunday, Sept. 6. On this occasion the visitors"carried away the honors of the day, the score being 3 to 2. Their second trip to McHenry was made on Sept. 27. This time the home boys won by the score of 0 to 3. By this the fans may see that the two teams are on an equal footing and a close games are sure to be the result, regardless of who wins. Ryan, the spit ball artist, is again with the Riverviews and it is more than likely that he will be called upon to pitch the opening game. Games called at 2:30. . The usual prices of admission will prevail. "UNCLE TOM 18 COKING Steece's mammoth Uncle Tom's Cab­ in company is booked to appear in this city on Thursday, June 3. This com­ pany is proclaimed to be the largest and most thoroughly equipped organi­ zation of this character ever presented to the public, and is positively the last word, in exhibitions of its kind. Pro­ ducing in its entirety from the original book "that wonderful classic" drama, "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Mr. Steece has succeeded, in surrounding himself with a remarkably strong company of artists, and has spared neither time or expense in his endeavors to give the public a perfect and satisfying pro­ duction. Fifty people are in the cast, including Steece's famous colored Tennessee jubilee singers and dancers, a pack of- genuine Siberian blood­ hounds and twenty-five horses and ponies are used in the play, making it the most perfect and realistic stage picture possible to conceive. This company carries the costliest and finest appointed "Tent Theatre" ever exploited, with a seating capacity of 1,500 persons, and is the only aggre­ gation of this kind that has its own special train to transport the company and the immense amount of scenery, properities and effects necessary to this big spectacular exhibit. A free street parade is given daily, partici­ pated in by the entire company, in* eluding two bands. QUARTER OF A CENTURY -CENTRAL- OPUIA HOUSE " Fthe' • -• fs|; MOVIES .

McNamara flew out to War- The opening banquet and ball at the Parker House on Thursday evening last, although not attended by a large crowd, was undoubtedly one of the finest entertainments of the kind ever given in this county. The hotel had recently been renovated, changed and refurnished throughout, and therefore was in better shape than ever before since it was built, and mine host Parker had laid himself out to give an entertainment worthy of the occasion, and that he succeeded those who were present fully testify. The music was fine, and the banquet-words are inade­ quate to describe it, and therefore we shall not make the attempt. We can simply say no wedding feast ever ex­ celled the lay-out spread before the guests at the Parker House on Thurs­ day evening last. Unfortunately for Mr. Parker he unknowingly hit upon day that is observed as a holiday by large portion of the dancing com­ munity, otherwise the number would have been much greater to enjoy the entertainment offered. Although not financial success, in every other re­ spect it was a complete success and one of which Mr. Parker just cause to feel proud.
