3 COUNCIL MEETS. (Continued from Page 1.) Glencoe has asked the village of Winnetka to supply water to them through the municipal plant and has approved the agreement which was sent to them to act upon. The Win- netka council, after due consideration, accepted a resolution offered by Trus- tee Goble to give this service to Glen- coe when the contract is signed by the proper village officials and thereby ap- proved. Marcucci & Pasquinelli were refused the privilege of installing an electric piano in their fruit store located in the Prouty building on Elm street on the theory that it oid pre a nui- sance and rendezvous for idlers. A perm., was not granted to Maret- ti on Gage street, Hubbard Woods, to open a pool room in connection with his fruit and confectionery store, though the question was left open for further investigation. This action was considered best because of some sentiment verbally offered by resi- dents in the locality. A resolution was offered to have the clerk prepare for the coming village election on April 1. The precincts were divided in the following manner: North of Elm street and south of Elm street. All living north will vote at Dally's and all living south of Elm street at Eklind"s. This arrangement seemed to evenly divide the residents and was thought by most to be logical. Mrs. O. C. Butz, 627 Sheridan road, is visiting in East Orange, N. J. Miss Virginia Harned was confined to the house last week by illness. Miss Georgie Marks is staying with her aunt, Mrs. Anderson. Mr. Charles Sullivan is able to be out again after a two weeks' illness. Mr. George C. Hoge has left Win- netka, and is now living in Chicago.

Holy communion in the chapel at 9:30 o'clock preceded the meeting. Luncheon was served at, 1 o'clock. Miss Garretson gave an interesting talk on the work of the visiting nurse in Winnetka. Mrs, S.P. Breckenridge, president of the' Wom- an's Civic club of Chicago, read an in- teresting paper on "Citizenship." FIRE DESTROYED EISENDRATH HOME Fire practically destroyed the nome of S. J. Eisendrath, 527 Cherry street, last Sunday evening. The family had retired for the night when the neigh- bors discovered the flames bursting through the roof. An alarm was turned in and Mrs. Eisendrath and the children were aroused and taken next door to the home of C. T. Morse, Mr. Eisendrath had gone into Chicago to stay at a hotel in order that he might be at work early the next morning. 'When he heard of the fire he had just ten minutes to make the last train for Winnetka, and he returned home. 2 The fire started from an overheated furnace, and owing to the strong wind that was blowing had gained great headway before the department arrived. With the exception of some of the household effects on the first floor nothing was saved. Mrs. Eisen- drath and the children are staying with Mrs. L. M, Stein, at 968 Elm street, for the present.

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKER DEAD. The funeral of William Smallwood Bishop, at Christ church last Friday, was very impressive and was the oc- casion for the many friends and busi- ness associates to express their love and respect and to show how deeply the loss is felt in the community. The Rev. Frederick G. Budlong con- ducted the service and the vestea choir sang three hymns. Mrs. J. E. May sang as a solo, "My God, My Father While I Stray," and Mrs. A. F. Callahan sang "Peace I Leave With You." Mr. Bishop has always been a very zealous worker in the Sunday school and in church work and his going caused the hearts of all to ache. To have known Mr. Bishop made us all feel better and the im- pression will always remain with us.
