I still have the Central Standard time of Johnsburg, now 9 o'clock a. m. We left New York June 23, Saturday, at 12:30 a. m. Such a mass of people at such a time of the night I had never seen. There were thousands of people gathered at the docks of the North German Lloyd at Manhattan, N. Y., and thousands were on the boat, leaving, and their loved ones, relatives and friends bidding farewell and goodbye, and many a sad scene could be witnessed at this moment of parting. /At 12:30 aP m. sharp, the steamer "Berlin" moved out upon the open sea, and when we passed the Statue of Liberty, all were on deck singing: "My country;...........Sweet land of liberty." And today, on Saturday, a whole week in a floating palace hotel. You should see the thousand passengers of the "Berlin," all on deck, trying to catch the first glimpse of land, England. Every day of the ocean trip, were days of sunshine and happiness, all are friends as of one family. Excluding today, Saturday, June 30, we covered 2,866 sea miles. Our location is at 49 degrees, 35 minutes N. latitude, and 9 degrees, 43 minutes W. longitude, seven days, five hours and five minutes. Among the passengers of the steamer we find people from New York City, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Chicago,Johnsburg, Milwaukee, Dakota state, Florida, St. Louis, California, from St. Anne, etc. We have every day church services and holy mass for the passengers (being four priests and one > sister on board) and lat Sunday, Jiune 24, we celebrated St. John's Day (patron feast of the Johnsburg church) with high mass and sermon, and even a good collection for the widows and orphans of the steamer crew was taken up. Greetings to the good people of my parish at Johnsburg, to the Plaindealer and friends at large. Sincerely, REV. WILLIAM WEBER. P. S. There is a variety of social amusements for the passengers on board, three concerts every day, movie and dance in the evening--even a daily paper is published on board of the steamer^--enclosed a copy by mail.

FREUND West McHenry, Illinois 120-R Batteries Battery Charging and Repairing 1 : '^5 False Alarm People in this vicinity were startled by the fire siren about 10:30 o'clock Friday evening and the fire truck was taken to Lily Lake to answer the supposed call for help. When the truck with the firemen and the line of cars nearly a mile long reached Lily Lake no fire could be found and there was nothing left to do but return home. It was evidently a false alarm from some source which called out the valuable fire truck and the willing firemen and other volunteer workers on the "wild goose chase."
