Frank Hovat and family are now occupying the house vacated by Otto Jiennixig on Park avenue. * Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Ott have moved from the Madden house on Water street to the rooms over the Huck grocery store on Elm street. Items of Local Interest- Work on the new locks in the Fox river dam below McHenry is progressing very favorably and should be finished shortly. One of the, most unsightly spots within the village limits at the present time is the old clay hole, just west of the railway tracks. We would suggest that our village board, as well as the board of health, take a walk over to that spot. # The Terra Cotta factory situation remains unchanged. However, the business men, property owners and workmen of Crystal Lake have held several important meetings during the past two weeks and it looks as if some understanding can be reached between them and Mr. Gates, the president of the factory, whereby the plant will remain in operation at Terra Cotta. The Crystal Lake people cannot afford to lose the institution, as at least one quarter of the city's population earns its livelihood through that source.

I have tried to do good in this world, not harm, as my enemies would have the world believe. I have helped men and have attempted in my humble way to be of some service to my country."--J.
