The exhibit, ; taken from Washington, Minnesota, Montana and North Dakota lands, \ 4*" •. was one of the biggest and best of kind ever showa at our fair and attracted more than a little attention Mr. Stilling has the exhibit at the Cook county fair at Palatine this week. The chautauqua at Hebron last week proved a success in every way Hebron being one of the few towns in this locality to break even this year. It has already been decided to hold a larger and better ch&utauqua there next year. Read The Plaindealer Lake Geneva Wins lit* McHenry Sox met defeat at the hands of the Lake Geneva com­ bination at the Woodstock fair grounds last Thursday afternoon, Lake Geneva winning the game 4 to 2. ' ' Croden was in the box for the Wis­ consin boys and pitched a splendid article of ball, allowing our Nboys but five hit^ and striking out nine bats­ men. Bird was Manager Walsh's pitching selection for the day, but somehow or other our opponents took a great fancy to his offerings and as a result Bird was yanked in the fifth and re­ placed by Sahlberg, who held Lake Geneva safe th^ balance of the day. While Croden pitched an unusually stronfe game, his team mates are to be given credit for the victory, as they stood behind their flinger like a stone wall, grabbing in everything that came their way. This does not mean that McHenry was so far out-classed, as our boys, too, put up an article of ball that will win nine times out of ten, but the boys could not hit the pill out of reach of the fielders and that's the reason they lost. They hit the ball hard and often enough, but only five of them fell on safe territory. Thru the courtesy of Edward Sut­ ton, who kept the score for us, we are herewith able to give the fans a tabulated report on the game: \ Offtc* in StpauMing Mdf, r'fS THE JtsHEHBT rMOTOEAEBB, MeHKNRY, n,t/r'::' , . - » ' Fhon* No 73-R ALFORD H.

Woodstock Trims Lake Geneva With five of the McHenry Sox playing on the Woodstock team, Woodstock defeated the Lake Geneva team at the Woodstock fair on Fri­ day afternoon of last week, the score being 11 to 1. Sahlberg of the Mc­ Henry Sox occupied the mound for the Woodstock aggregation and had an easy time defeating the boys from the Wisconsin city. All of the Mc­ Henry players put up a classy article of ball and Lake Genfeva went home a trifle less chesty then they did on Thursday night after having defeat­ ed the McHenry team. With Sahl­ berg working at his best it takes more than Lake Gfeneva can produce to beat him and "Sally" surely was right last Friday.
