amazing statement, and confirmed Mr..
Jameson in every particular.
The information thus gained had
the effect of urging the managers to
extraordinary efforts, the result being
one of the most active and energetic
campaigns ever conducted In this
State. and the sweeping Of Illinois for
the Republican ticket by one Of the
greatest majoritics ever recorued here.
This bit of history Is referred to
here, not because we believe there Is
any likelihood Of its repeating itself
but from peculiar statements com.
ing from certain quarters on the Dem

so. It will be well for them If the,

CHiCAGO'S FiRST BREWERiES.

The immense brewing interests of
Chicago of the present day had their
origin in the small beginnings of Will
liam Lii and William Haas in Septem-
Der. 1880 They We're really employed
by William u. Ogden, who established
Mr.. Lii In business ut the corner of
Pine street and Chicago avenue. The
"brcwery" was II little tenement build
ing in that locality, and the extent of
Mr.. Lill's manufacture at first II said
to have averaged about nine barrels
per week.
After Il few years Michael Diverscy
entered into an active partnership
with Mr.. Lii and Mr.. Ogdcn's silent
connection with the business ceased.
Under the management of LII and
Diverscy the Chicago Brewery" grew
by 1857 to be the most exclusive estnb-
lishment of the kind In the West. 1t
was situated on the corner of Pine
and Chicago avenue ana covered the
whole block.
At the time of the panic In 1857 the
firm had invested nearly $?oO,OOO In
the business and successfully wealth

Besides being known as good bus'.

to the German Catholic churches OF
Chicago. and charity and benevOlence
are among the noted features OF the
brewery industries of to-day.
In 1910 james Carney started q
small brewery on South Water street
between state and Wabash avenue. In
| 1856 he sold out to John O'Neill.
T.. Busch was also an early brewer
his establishment being called the

the old Green Bay road. near the lake
shore on the North Side.
The Columbia brewery was built b!
j. ]. Sands on the corner of Pine nnd
Pearson streets in 1855. His manufac

WATCH THE mix SUPPLY.

The City Health Department II to
be commended for the activity with
which II Is prosecuting its crusade
against impure milk of which there
IL said to be now an enormous supply
In the market. Many citizens are alive
to the danger from this. one of the
worst kinds of impure food.
There have been daily consultations.
between citizens, the law department
and the health department on this
subject the result being that active
and stringent measures are being
adopted for the punishment Of viola.
tors OF the law and the protection
of the public.
One of the officials of the Health
Department In discussing the matter
the other day, said:
I'm practically all Of the outlying
districts, many persons keep two
three or four cows, and these people
sell milk. The aggregate supply from
all of these small dealers Is enormous
and the danger Is multiplied. Some
of them know personally are not
very clean. There Is no disposition to
place any hardships, but inspections
should be made of these premises
Some idea of the enormous amour,
Of impure milk now being brought
into the market In this city cnn bt
gathered from the fact that the chief
milk inspector In one day rejected
LAO gallons Of milk which arrived
on the early morning trains In unseal
ed cans, The ordinance passed b!
the council In the winter requires thai
all milk must be shipped into Chicago

Nearly fifty aldermen of the city of

This is one of the most peculiar

postmistress, TO John M. Williams, of
Paintsville. The marriage ceremony
was performed on last Christmas eve
at the home Of ]. w. Preston, Deputy
Sheriff of Martin county, Rev. James
Chaffin officiating. The contracting
parties desired to keep their marriage a
secret for awhile, as Mr.. Williams, the
groom, was arranging to start to a
Louisville school to study medicine, and
they did keep it, as no one except the
few who were present thought of such.
When Mr. Williams came home for the
vacation it was decided to make the af-
fair public, and the NEWS is the first to
publish the fact.
Miss Gertrude Cassidy is the pretty
and popular daughter of B. P. Cassidy,
of Louisa, and has been assisting her
brother-in-law, Atty. Nj. G. Kirk, of
this place, in the postoffice for several
years.
Mr. John NJ. Williams is fine young
