MARY'S Miss Marie Dorothy Nix Becomes Bride of Mr. Jnliaa F. McCabe, Avth of Elburn, 10. A pretty summer' wedding took place at St. Mary's church on Saturday morning, Sept. 1, when Miss Marie Dorothy Nix, of Elburn, 111., niece of Hev. Charles S. Nix, pastor of St. Mary's church of this city, and Mr. Julian F. McCabe of Elburn, were united in marriage. To the beautiful strains of the Wedding march played fey the church organist, the bridal couple marched to the altar, where at nine o'clock Rev. Father Charles S. Ni*, assisted by Father Dommermuth and Rev. Father William O'Rourke of St. Patrick's church, officiated at the nuptial high mass. The bride,had as her bridesmaid her friend, Miss Lillian Freund, of this writer the leadership of James McQueeny swooped down on the farm. One man was captured and another made his escape. The man placed under arrest gave his name as Thomas JSchultz. He is in the custody of the •Citizens' League at the present writing. The man who made his escape was warned by a police dog. . He had been standing guard at the b^rn with a rifle. The man arrested was ip charge of the cooker and was taken by surprise. Statement To Press The head of the McQueeny agency had plenty to say to the various newspaper men present at the pouring of the alcohol and destroying of the^still Monday morning. McQueeny stated that he had been /hired by the Citizens' League, following the refusal of thA, county board to allow his bill in. connection with (he Pouse administration. He said he has been working in McHenry county for several months. He alleged that the big still uncovered Saturday is property of the famous Druggari and, Lake, Chicago gunmen and bootleggers. His fjrst move since being hired by the Citizens' Leagtie was the raid of slot machines made Friday night, at which time about forty-five machines were confiscated throughout the county. .Fourteen of these machines were taken from the home of George Vogel at Solon Mills, who McQueeny says was the leader of the slot machine ring. Vogel was assisted by his son, Charles, and Avery Walface. \ McQueeny stated to the newspaper men Monday, that he had a confession from Charles Vogel stating he had been tipped off over a week ago by a prominent Woodstock politician that there was something in the air and to collect up the machines and keep them under cover for a few weeks until thingB cleared up. McQueeny says that is the reason why the machines were found in Vogel's in white satin with matching slippers and hose and y?ore a tulle veil held in place with orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. The bridesmaid, Miss Lillian Freund, was becomingly gowned in a dress of orchid chiffon with a large picture hat and orchid slippers to match her costume and carried an arm bouquet of yellow tea roses. Following the ceremony a reception and dinner attended ' by, the relatives and friends was held at Justen's Hotel. Mr. and Mrs. Julian F. McCabe will live in Chicago. AGED VISITOR FALLS AT SCHIESSLE HOME Machines Te Harvard The machines were all takefa to Harvard -and locked up in a cell in the city jail.

It is thought that Mrs. Braun suffered a slight stroke, which caused her to fall, and which is principally the cause of her serious condition. She had been outdoors for some time and it is thought probable that she felt ill which prompted her to enter the house. She is under the care of a nurse and everything is being done for her comfort and recovery. *Her children, including three sons and a daughter, Mrs. Tom Hayes, all of Detroit, are at her bedside, as well as a niece. Miss Lena Weber, of Appleton, Wis. On Thursday she was accompanied here by her brother, Father Weber, who went on to his home in Ohio. She also has one other daughter, who is in a convent.

Bonslett, who was ill. The reports of the clerk and collector were read and approved and bills to the amount of $2,090.4*7 allowed. Aid. StoiTel and Knox voted city and surrounding resorts over the week-end. Labor Day constituted both the end of summer vacations and one of the accounts Ad. Knox presented k letter for the clerk to read, in which was stated the close of the double holiday of thej that previous letters regarding the week-end and it was very evident that everyone in general desired to make th&< most of this vacation. 1 f. f Schools vrill now begin, Vacations aref' drawing to an end and the country will settle down to a more quiet, sane existence, without the rush and hurry of the pleasure seekers. The streets of McHenry haie rather a deserted appearance after the congested traffic of the week-end and many of the resorters along the river and at the lakes have returned to their homeSSn Chicago for the winter. Some of them will spend the we^k-ends here through the fall, while others have closed their cottages and will not return until another season. Over 100.000 Fox River Valley citizens celebrated Labor Day, it is estimated, and large celebrations were held at McHenry and many neighbor; ing cities. Firemen Stage Ca«dvaf . At McHenry the firemen sponsored' the carnival which was held in the city park on Saturday, Sunday ^nd Monday, and ^hich had all of the usual stands and merry-go-round. It wae the aim of the iiremen u, contribute the receipts q!f the^carhival on the payment of the fire truck, the debt on which will probably be very nearly cleared^ alter the funds have been credited to its account. A good crowd was in attendance every night and although it is not known just how much was cleared a1 the carnival an interesting report will be ready for next week. A new peak in McHenry'# automobile traffic and congestion was attained during the three-day holiday, which was coincident with the ending of the summer and vacation resort season. Despite the cool and threatening weather, which kept thousands of motorists off the highways on Monday, the volume of traffic moving in and out of McHenry on the main traveled through routes was estimated as beyond all precedent. The streets were parked full of cars ahd the traffic waiting foV the stop-and-go signal could not get through before the signal changed. / Over 1,000 Cars Pass In Hour An actual check of the traffic was made at the Orient filling station at the east end of the new Fox bridge and it was found that for one hour, between 2:*$,, and 11:30 o'clock, Monday afternoon, 1,004 earn passed the station. This was an average of about sixteen cars-a minute, which kept up during the three days. At Volo the congestion was reported as being much greater, as the t*ke region and other highways poured many more travelers into Volo than came through this city and the narrow road bill mentioned had been sent and no answer received. Mr.Knox emphatically stated that' he thought all correspondence to the city should be answered in some way or other. Mr. Schabeck, district manager for the Public Service company, was pres. ent with the bond of the company to be approved. The bond was for $5,000 and some of the council thought it should be higher, t>ut finally accepted and signed the papers as presented. Aid. Stoffel wanted to know what had been done about getting the old accounts straightened out, calling attention to the motion made and carried last meeting to call in those responsible for the condition of the funds. It was stated by one alderman that the records of the board of local improvements have disappeared, and so far the minute book lias not been found. No further action was taken on the matter at this meeting. The council adjourned to meet again Friday evening of this week. , THIEVES ACTIVE CLUBHOUSE BROKER INTO AT PISTAKia| "Batly S'OreK" Also Occupied By Uninvited Guests--Whippet Coupe Stolen Friday Evening Alth6ugh never satisfactorily ex plained, it remains a fact that the holi days around Lr.hor Day are usually hectic ones with a spirit of lawlessness and disregard of law and order prevalent throughout the country. Abnormal conditions are found very often to exist and affairs are in a state of excitement and unrest which leads to accidents, crimes, thievery and other depredations.

Although the robbers have not been apprehended as yet, it is thought that the work wa3 done <by a local person, as noq? of River the supplies, such as golf balls, fiJubs, etc., were taken, as they would be hard to dispose of in this locality without detection.

Hire Extra Teacher, Owing to the large number of tuition pupils who have enrolled at the local high school from Ri^hmdnd, as well as the non-high school district east of here, it was deemed necessary by Supt. C. H. Duker to hire another teacher to assist in the extra number of classes occasioned by the enlarged enrollment. This was done a short time ago and Miss Lillian KortendicX, of Pecatonica, 111., was hired to teach a domestic science class and general sciehce. She is a graduate of .Rosary College, Chicago. A school nurse will also be at work in the schools from the very first of the school term and Mrs. Joanne Rtdien, who accomplished so much efficient work in the short time she was hpre last year, has ^returned to look after the health part of the school program for another year. k k Many New Teachors All of the high school teachers, with the exception of Mr. Willis, who taught here last year, and Miss Lillian Doherty, who is a local girl, are strangers in our midst, this being their first year as instructors in the McHenry high school, and parents should taks enough interest in the progress of their children and the welfare of the school tq become acquainted with the this manner.
