COUNTY CONVENTIONS Were Held the County Seat Last Monday " The Republican as well as/ the Democratic county conventions jprere held at the court house at Woodstock on Monday of this wetek. At the Republican convention W. E. Wire of Hebron was elected chair­ man and John M. Hoy, secretary and treasurer. F. H. Wattles.of this vil­ lage and James C. Ladd of Ringwood were chosen as two of the eight dele­ gates selected to attend the,v state convention, which takes place it Pe­ oria, 111., tomorrow. At the Democratic convention John W. Phalin of Harvard was made chairman" with John J.. Hayes of Woodstock as secretary and treas­ urer. An executive, committee made up of John Bolger and John J. Hayes of Woodstock; Ed. L. Hayes and Walter 5. Walsh of McHenry; Earl Manor of Hebrbn; John Donavon of Huntley; P. H. Leonard of Crystal Lake; Mike MlCabe of.Hartland and John W. Phalin, was ^ilso named.

Leonard of Crystal Lake. The old John . Dopnelly crowd, whicfy it is said has controlled the Democratic county conventions for the past twenty years or more, was knocked out- entirely; the younger Democrats or the county having now taken full reign. Mission Was a Success The mission, conducted at St. Mary's Catholic church here last week, came to a very successful close on Sunday evening of this week. In point of attendance the mission proved the biggest eVer held in this locality. All of the sermons, includ­ ing . the specials on Wednesday ancf Thursday evenings, were very well attended and npt a service was held during the entire week without a large congregation present. A mis sion of this sort is always healing to the soul and the one held in Mc Henry last week will undoubtedly prove a great benefit to .those who at­ tended same. Injured in Chicago' Mrs. C. E. Lamphere of "Carpen- lersville, sister of W. D. Wentworth of this village, met with quite a se­ vere accident in Chicago one day last week. Mrs. Lamphere, who had been the guest of her sister, Mrs. Hettie Fuller, was' ascending a fligh^ of stairs in the front of her sister's home when she tripped and fell, strik­ ing her head on the pavement below. In the fall she received a severe scs5tlp' wound as well as other minor injuries, altho no bones were broken. SJie was able to return to her home at Carpentersville this week, where she is now recovering nicely from her-in­ juries. - ^ ,v ' Returns From Dakota We are advised that Ben Stilling has "just returned from North Dakota after taking the Lee Walmsley fam­ ily up there.
