RF,V. FATHER KIRSCH, was a Chicago visitor on Thursday last. AN ABUNDANT SUPPLY OF WATER ASSURED. It is Estimated at 50,000 Caitons Every 24 Hours. When the Contractors had completed the sixteen feet of the big reservoir for the Water Works supply, some of our citi­ zens expressed grave fears as to whether a sufficient supply of water was to be obtained. But the Board acted promptly in the matter and Geo. H. Spaulding & Co, were immediately employed to sink down an eight inch pipe until a sufficient supply of water was obtained. The Jesuit was better than the most sanguine could have ho; ed for. On Monday aiternoon, at a depth of about sixty feet below the bottom of the big well, they struck a vein af water, which has flowed an eight inch stream through 77 feet and 9 inches of pipe, at the rate of over 50,000 gal­ lons every twenty-four hours. This is a small estimate, as at the present time there is a large waste that cannot be estimated. The water is clear as a crys­ tal and as cold as any spring water. From every indication it is believed that this supply is ifiexhaustable, and that McHenry now'has a flowing well that is of untold value, not only as a Water Works supply, but also as a special benefit to our village. President Story, Superintendent Went- worth, ana in fact the entire Board are entitled to great praise for their earnest work in this mitter. They have known no such word as fail, and the result is indeed gratifying, not alone to them but to every citizen of our village. Superintendent Wentworth is watching every detail of the work and our citizens can rest assured that their interests will be carefully looked after. He is em­ inently the "right man in the right place." With this auspicious beginning every good citizen should rejoice. Re-Opening of the M. E. Church The M. E. Church, is this village, nhich has been undergoing quite extensive re­ pairs the pastfew months, was re-opened for public worship on Sunday last, Pre­ siding Elder, F. A. Hardin, officiating. The church was filled, both morning and evening, to its utmost capacity, Mc­ Henry and surrounding towns turning out in force in the morning and listening with the closest attention to the power­ ful and eloquent discourse delivered by Elder Hardin, appropriate to the occa­ sion. In the evening he delivered a Lecture entitled "Christ in the Camp," being a reminiscence of army life, which was highly appreciated by all, especially the old Veterans, of which there were a goodly number present. This church is now one of the hand­ somest in the county, and those who had the work in charge, as well as the workmen, are entitledjto great praise for the able manner in which they done their work. A description of the repairs and changes made have appeared in these columns and therefore need not be re­ peated at this time. Suffice to say that with new seats, new windows, a fine Peninsular Furnace, beside other im­ provements inside and out, the M. E. society, of McHeury now have a place of worship of which they have just cause to feel proud. EVERY few years the gray squirrels that abound in the vicinity of Baraboo, Wisconsin, gather in droves and migrate The last exodus occurrcd eight yearn ago when thousands of these animals made their way southward. The exodus is to be repeated again this fall, and the woods around Baraboo are alive with them. They travel at the rate of half a mile a day, and the emigration period lasts about two weeks. Nothing stops them on their route; they cross prairies, marshes and swim streams. Hunters are plentiful and it is not unusual to bag twenty or thirty squirrels in a few hours. The cause of the migration isnotknown. Some say they are looking for food while others say it is change of scene they are alter. Fox squirrels are plenti­ ful, but do not join the grays in their travel.--Ex. The Greatest Eide In History. A territory of 271,000 square miles, comprising Washington, Idaho and Ore­ gon as they are today, was saved to the Union by one man. He had the courage and heroism to ride on mule back for three thousand miles. The ride wae thrilling, the trials and hardships mar­ velous, the result a glorious one. The whole story, beautifully illustrated, will be given in the November issus of The Ladies Home Journal, under the title, "When Dr. Whitman Added Three Stars to Our Flag." the closing and most in­ tensely interesting article in the Journal's successful series of Great Personal Events. The first woman to cross the Rockies figure in the Btory, which proves beyond a doubt that they proceeded Fremont the "Pathfinder,,' by six years. MILLINERY. Mrs. E. W.

The new residence of Michael Justen, on the corner of Elm Street and Park Avenue, in this village, is, without ques­ tion, one of the finest in the county, and is deserving of more than a passing no'tice. We therefore propose to give a brief description of the same, and if we make any mistakes in names our readers will overlook them, as we make no„ pre­ tentions of being familiar with modern architecture. The building is two and one half stories high and the first floor is divided as fol­ lows: Parlor 16x19, Sitting Room lOx 19, Dining Room 12^x16, Bed Room 16x14, Kitchen 12%xl3, besides a large Hall and Stairway. The parlor, Sitting Room and Dining Room are all connect­ ed by sliding doors, so that all three can be practically thrown into one room. The Parlor and Sitting Room are finished in Sycamore wood, the Dining Room in Oak, the Kitchen in Ash, and the Hall in Oak. The Wainscoting in the Dining Room is beautifully paneled presenting a very handsome appearance. The slid­ ing doors between Parlor, Sitting Room and Dining Room are made one side of Sycamore wood and the other Oak, and are finished in a very artistic manner. A fine China Cupboard, finished in Oak, is built in the wall, between the Dining Room and Kitchen, with doors opening into each room, which for convenience cannot be excelled. t In the Sitting Room is a very hand­ some Fire Place, with a Porcelain Slab Mantle and slab front, which connects with a large chimney that stai ts from the basement. The second story is divided as follows: On the West side there are two rooms, one 14x16 and one 15x15, in the rear of which is a Bath Room 9%xl5. On the east side there is another room 15x15%, in the rear of which id another small bed room. A Hall runs through the center connecting with a back stairway, which leads down into the kitchen. Connected with each of the rooms above named is a large and handy closet. All the second story rooms are finished in Georgia Pine, except the closets which are finished in Red Cedar.. In the Attic, or half story can be found his Water Works fixtures, which are so arranged as to furnish every room in the house with hot and cold water. The house is heated by a fine, large Williams Furnace, which is complete in every detail. , . The basement of this house is also a marvel of convenience. In passing down through the kitchen you first enter the Laundry Room, which is 14x15 and is supplied with all the modern conven­ iences. Next comes the Furnace Room, 12x15%. Then a room 12%xl5% which will be used for housing Plants in the winter. Next the vegetable cellar, 15x 20. All these rooms are convenient in every particular. There are t.w° street entrances to the building, the main one on the south­ east corner, over which is a handsome Porch, which is surmounted by a tower The other is on the east side over which is also a porch. Over the doors and around the cornice is what is called the Dental Trim, which presents a very neat and tasty appearance. In short the house from basement to attic, for both convenience and beauty cannot be excelled, and is an ornament to our village as well as an honor to Mr, and Mrs. Justen, who we understand planned it themselves. We do not. believe th6re is a spot or place where it could be changed for the better. The work on this building was all done under the immediate supervision of Peter J, Freund, contractor and builder, and Mr, Justen desires us to say that everything.was done strictly according to contract, and that from the beginning to the time the building was completed a-:d ready for occupancy, not one word of disagreement passed between them. He therefore takes great pleasure in recom­ mending Mr. Freund as a reliable and trustworthy contractor, and a first-class workman in every particular, and that those who have buildings to put up will make no mistake in securing his services. Mr. Freund also has nothing but words 0 praise for the manner in which Mr. justen fulfilled his part of the oontract. " The painting on the inside of this building was done by Mathias Iphden & Son, of Chicago, and on the outside by John Neihs. of this village. Taken all in all, the material, finish and architecture, we believe we do not exaggerate when we say it is one of the finest residences in McHeury county, and the many frienns of Mr. Justen and his estimable lady nofte th$y may live long to enjoy life under nia roof.
