He was in his 89th year. Waukegan with a total of $2,486,910 in construction during the past year stands seventh in building in Jfhe state. The cities which report larger volumes of building during the year are, Rockford, Decatur, Peoria, Joliet, Springfield and Rock Island, all larger in population than Waukegan. Members of the family of William O'Carroll, superintendent of grounds at St. Mary's of the Lake Seminary at Bffundelein,* were endangered recently when a bullet, evidently fired from the road in front of the Jiome, struck a window in the living room breaking out a glass in the top sash. Milk from one cow is held responsible for the recent epidemic of sore throats which cost six lives and brought illness to hundreds of persons in Baraboo, Wis. State health Officers checking the course of the disease found milk from this single source has spread the infection. The diseased animal was killed1! at once. The Cornbelt Hatchery owned by D. If. Roth and Sons of Gibson City, Illinois/ have purchased the Mount Hatcheries of il&rengo and Woodstock. The office at Marengo opened Saturday, Jan. 25, with Mrs., Ralph Mallory in charge until the arrival of Mr. Grennan, who is now taking a poultry course at. the i Cornell University, Utica, N. Y. The two plants will be put into operation next month and will bring the total of Cornbelt Hatcheries to ten individual units with a full capacity of 850,000 eggs. Edward T. Glennon, at one time the publisher of , the Woodstock Sentinel, died Tuesday afternoon at his home at Lake Geneva, Wis., after a short illness. In his early days he learned the printer's trade, and in 1879 he acquired a half interest in the Sentinel business, which Was then conducted by Southworth and Glennon. He later went to Chicago where he entered the study of law and was an attorney for the New York Central railroad, of which he was an assistant vice-president for more than twenty yeari. + • Stockholders of the First State Bank of Barrington, at their annual meeting held recently, ratified, recent action of the directors, by increasing the capital stock from $50,000 to $100,000. Of the increased stock $25,000 is being used to pay the stock dividend of 50 per cent and the other $25,000 is being sold to depositors of the bank, who have heretofore not been stockholder, at $200 per share. There was a ! arge oversubscription of this new si ock, and a committee of the director! is apportioning it on an equitable b|»is among the subscribers. A depth of 1700 feet has been reached by workmen digging a new well for the city of Crystal Lake,, but the supply of water is insufficient. Almost two years have been consumed in this work, but so far the various water stratas encountered have failed to produce a flow sufficient for the needs of the city. E. Roy Wells of the Well* Engineering company states that it is an establised fact that there < tn-at«4«Mion of water | sell, it the lower depths of northern Illi- Thomas, nois, and the suburban communities near Chicago are already using water from the more shallow wells, and the time will soon come when Fox Valley cities will have to depend upon a supply of water from the Niagara limestone depth. Lester Benson, aged 10 of Chicago was trapped in a blazing cottage at Diamond Lake Tuesday ttbming of last week and was burne<4 Vo death. Benson and a companion, Chester Bell, also of Chicago, had come out from the city on Monday to spend the day and night in' the cottage owned by Benson's father. The boys started a fire in the fire place, which was the only means of heating the cottage, and went to sleep after removing their shoes and stockings. Bell was awakened during the night by the crackling of the fire, and .fouf)ji. the interior of the cottage a mass of flames. He aroused his companion,] and thinking that Benson was following, rushed through the front door,j which slammed behind him. When he found that Benson was still in the! burning building he attempted to go1 back through the door, which toad become fastened with a spring lock when it closed. He went in through a window and was severely burned. Splendid Attendance Is Recorded Daring the Last Semester - Just Closed Monday, Jan. 20, marked the opening of the second semester at the McHenry Community high, school, at which time the names of seven new pupils were added to the roll of members. Five of these new students were seniors from Richmond who will come to McHenry to complete their high school course and graduate from an accredited high school. The names of these seniors are, Edith Vogel, Edwin Austin, Elsie Valentine, Clarence Pierce and Frances Collison, all of Richmond. With the addition of these students the senior class now numbers twenty-seven members. Two new students have also entered the Sophomore class at the high school, namely, Mildred Thompson of Terra Haute, Ind., and Lois Esh of Spring Grove. On Wednesday* afternoon of last week after school the members of the cooking class gave an informal tea for their parents and members of the faculty. This was prepared entirely by the girls of the cooking class, who, also, planned a program for the entertainment of their guests. Following will be found a record of the 100 per cent attendance pupils in all of the schools during the last semester. The total attendance of the schools has been unusually good and a splendid record has been made by the scholars thus far, despite the cold and snow and very unfavorable weather conditions. The little folks of the kindergarten are not to be outdone by the older children and have kept up their attendance record in very fine shape, showing that the tiny tots have braved the storms and cold weather to realh their school session every morning. Among other things the fine attendance records of the papils brings forth one outstanding * fact, which Is that the health records of these pupils have also been 100 per cent so as to enable them to attend school regularly. It indicates that parents are beginning to recognize the need of care of early symptoms of colds, contagious diseases and other illnesses rather than to send children who are ill to school, thereby exposing other children. The work of the school nurse Is shown in many ways, but nowhere qre the results of her teachings and vigilant watchfulness more evident than in the attendance record which by its fine report shows that good health i^ prevalent in our schools or pupils could not be perfect in attendance for four months at a time. The school nurse, Mrs. Rulien, gives unsparingly of her time, experience and knowledge in behalf of the pupils of our schools and the results of her work and interest in the children arc becoming more evident every day, and the splendid co-operation from parents and teachers all tend towards a fine good health program in our schools. * Those having 100 per cent attendance for the semester in the Public grade school are: Grade 1--Cynthia Erickson. Grade 2--Daisy Moore, Melvin Moore. Grade 8--Shirley Colby, Robert McDonald. Grade 4--Harry Anderson, Lorraine Engein, Margaret Landl, Earl Schaefer, Ardelle Voeltz.

Then one day he saw a tiny three-leafed plant growing at his feet and plucking it he used It to Illustrate his point. Shamrock is from the Irish "seamrog," and is applied to tbe various plants having three leaves. In Arabic, the word for three-leaf plants is "shamrakh." While the name shamrock1 has been applied Jo various three-leaf plants, it is generally used in connection with one of the clovers. The four-leaf clover has long been associated with various superstitions. Because it is in the form of a cross Is likely the reason fof attributing to such plants uncanny powers." It was, however, regarded as sacred by the Greeks long before the time of Christ. At various times it has been believed that the person carrying it would have the power of detecting the presence of evil spirits or would be successful In his undertakings. If he put It under his pillow, he would dream of his beloved and a maiden might, by slipping it, qpseen, lQto shoe of her lover, assure him Journey. Effect of. Snake Venom Probed by Scientists jjt has been stated On apparently good authority that snake venom will not affect cold-blooded animals, such aa snakes, frogs, toads, lizards and fish. Systematic observation shows that this Is not the case. Toads, which are very tenacious of life, have beenknown to survive three days after having been bitten by puff-adders or by cobras, but In the end they succumb. Frogs often die almost Instantly after having been bitten. Again, tt has been said that the venoms of two' deadly snakes of the same species do not affect each other. Though this holds good In some cases, however. It is not true of all. Puff-adders appear to be Immune from one another's poison. On the other hand, puffadders that have been bitten by .cobras, mambas, boom-slangs, and other venomous South African snakes occasionally die, but not always. In one case a puff-adder which was Infected with enough cobra poison,to kill six men survived. ^ Juniors--Rolland Ensign, Dorothy Fisher, Olive Jepson, Catherine Landl, Lowell Nye, Harold Lindsey, Edna Peet, Kenneth Boley, Walter Brefeld, Christine Wegener.

It Is formed in southern Utah by the confluence of the Green and the Grand rivers. It enters Arisona at the northwestern corner and flows southward to the Gulf of California. It drains an area of 300,000 square miles. Only at three points is it crossed by a railroad. The Spaniards were the first white men to view the great wonder of nature. 8panish explorers first reported seeing it as early as 1540 ynd in 1776 a Spanish priest found a crossing that still bears his name. The first man to make anything like a complete survey of the river and the canyon through which It flows, was MaJ. John Wesley Powell, a geologist and a school teacher, a one-armed veteran of the Civil war. With a crew of men and boats, be traversed the river from Its source Jo its mouth in 1809. The Grand canyon has long been a haven for geologists. It furnishes them with an ideal setting to study the earth's strata. And it is no less a haven for tourists. 1 - Many "Black Fridays" in Financial Circlet "Black Friday" does not refer to a particular date, as often supposed, but is the name given to several Fridays on which financial panics have occurred. Apparently the. term was first applied to the Friday in December, 1745, when the news was received in London that Charles Edward Stuart, the Young Pretender, had reached- Derby, only ten days' march from the capital. A financial panic resulted Immediately. "Black Friday" was probably suggested by analogy with Black Monday, an old name for the Monday following Easter. The term "Black Friday" was revived In England for May 11, 1866, when a panic followed the failure of the London firm of Overend, Gurney ft Co. In the United States the term Is applied to September 24, 1860, when a panic occurred as the result of Jay Gould's efforts to corner the gold market In New York, and to September 19, 1873, when a panic followed the failure of the banking firm of Jay Cook ft Pathfinder Magasin* Electron and Molocnl* electron is the smallest known unit In electricity. It may be either positive of negative. The atom is the smallest unit of any chemical element.

Four further bells--named Anne, Elizabeth, Fulbert and Plat--occupy the fifth story; these are dated five ytors later and one at least possesses an interest* Ing history. When Anne of Brittany visited the cathedral she was so impressed by a boy's voice that she begged the authorities to release him to her, which thev did, whereupon she said: "You have given me a small voice and now I will give you a big one." Years ago this bell was rung for an hour every evening during a certain period of the year, that there Blight be abundant harvest. The Word "Anecdote* Today we know that the word "anecdote" simply refers to a pithy account of any incident, usually a short, entertaing narrative. Originally, however, an anecdote was a secret history, a sort of a subrosa story of unpublished events, this significance being indicated by its root source. It is in this sense thpt it is used, for Instance, by Procoplus in his portrayal of the private life of Justinian and Theodora.--Kansas City Star.
