THE drummers held a convention
at New Orleans last month, and
told how the trusts are knocking
them out of jobs at the rate Of tens
of thousands annually. Last year
they voted for Mckinley; this year
they will vote for Bryan. But the
trusts will own the property and
employ whom they please and do
business generally at the old stand
in the old way. Then in four years
the drummers will vote the social
ist ticket; the property of trusts
will be made public property and
operated for the benefit of the
public and the public will get
relief. The drummers are getting
their eyes open, but they would
save much suffering for themselves
and the public if they would come
over into the public ownership
camp at once. But they are COM
ing, and that is encouraging.

JUDGE BELcHER, of California
has decided that all marriages of
divorced California people con-
tracted in the State of Nevada with
in twelve months from the time of
divorce are illegal. As something
like 1900 marriages have been con-
tracted in Nevada since the Cali
fornia law went into effect, there
is considerable excitement among
those who supposed themselves to
be legally married.

CHURCH DEDICATION.
KNOWLToN. WIS.

kNOWLTON, WIS.
Last Thurday at $50 A. NJ. the Catholic
church at this place was dedicated, Rev.
P. Dickopf of Mosinee, who has charge
of this mission was assisted in the
dedicatory ceremonies by Rev. Father
Van Rosmullen of Grand Rapids and
Rev. Father Casper of Wausau, the last
named acting in place of Bishop Mess
mer who could not be present, Rev.
Casper preached very eloquent SER
mon in German and was followed by
Rev. Van Rosmullen in English. Mrs.
George Knoller played the musical part
of the high mass and never did better.
Through the generosity of the deceased,
Leonard Gunther and other old resi-
dents of this place, the church was first
erected in 1875 but for some years this
mission was neglected, bat mainly
through the efforts of Rev. P. Dickopf
large addition has recently been built
on and the church thoroughly remod-
eled throughout; a large new high
altar adorns the Sanctuary, on each side
of which is two beautiful memorial
windows donated by Mr.. and Mrs.
Mcndell Stark of this place, and Mr.
and Mrs. G.. G. Knoller of Dancy. The
Pensioners as whole may well feel
proud of this much needed improve
ment, which they all cannot help en-
joying, AN. ONIooKER.

CIRCUIT COURT.

The fall term of circuit court COM
menced yesterday and indications are
that it will be very short term, there
being but few cases on the calendar, in
fact the calender is smaller than that of
any recent years. There are but ten
criminal cases, which indicates that but
little crime has been committed in this
section recently The balance of the
calendar is made up of SO cases of minor
Importance, which shows that people
are living in peace and harmony with
one another and have few differences
to settle There will probably not be
many of the latter come to trial. The
first case on the list is that of the state
VS.. Frank Currier, which comes here on
change of venue from Waupaca coun-
ty aud which was tried at the last term
of court at which time the jury dis
agreed Currier has been confined in
he Marathon county Jail all summer.

The Wisconsin Druggists Exchange,
of GAINESVILLE in its November number
publishes splendid notice of our fellow
townsman and druggist, w, W. Albers.
Also has an excellent portrait in con
nectIon with the article. OF him the
exchange truthfullY says:
w. w. ALBERs,
"Of Wausau, is man whom the bus
mess interests of Wausau could spare
about as we'll as the earth can spare its
sunshine. He meets with smile every
experience and everybody coming his
way, and this world is the better for the
contact every time. Next to his bright
faith in the philosophy of cheerfulness
and work, Mr.. Albers has faith in Wau
sau. He believes in the great natural
resources with which she is blessed,
believes in herunusual facilities for doing
business, believes in her business men
and contends that, SO far as Wausau is
concerned, hard work and hustle
can accomplish anything. In this re.
gard his practice is consistent with his
preaching; he is one of the most indom-
liable workers the business circles of
WauSau have"

SMALL POx.
journal

1t has been rumored for a number of
days past that there were two small pox
cases in town and which rumor was
not generally accepted, but it is fact
nevertheless, there are two but neither
originated here. Some days ago a
young man, whose name we did not
learn, but who resides in the western
part of the state, was brought here and
taken to the pest house west of the city,
and placed under the care of a nurse,
and at present is improving. Another
young man, VIM. Clark by name, who
had been working in the woods near
Arbor Vitae was brough. to this city on
the evening of Nov. 1st, suffering with
the same malady and was Immediately
placed in the pest house. On Friday
last DR.. Suffer, member of the state
board of health, was in the city to in
vestigate these cases and ascertain what
precautions had been taken to prevent
the spread of the disease, and says that
the citizens need have no fear of more
cases breaking out.

A Natural Conclusi0n.

The Philadelphia Record prints an
amusing story Of the late President
william H. Allen Of Girard College and
lady Of more inquisitiveness than In
telligence. On one occasion a business
matter called Mr.. Allen to q small town
In the central part Of Pennsylvania.
While sitting In the parlor Of the coun.
try hotel In the evening, after transact.
Ing his business, he was taken In hand
by the wife Of the proprietor. who
wanted to know all about his private
affairs.
Mr.. Allen took 1t all In good part, and
for time was rather amused. Finally
she asked:
"Have you much Of family"
"Oh, yes" said he. and he smiled as
his mind reverted to his hundreds Of
pupils.
How many children?" she persisted.
"Well," said Mr.. Allen, with great
earnestness. II have five hundred, and
all boys"
The good lady was speechless for a
moment. Then she arose, and hurryina
to the door. called softly TO her hus
band:

THE BEES AND THE TREES.

\ Territory Mystery that IL PuzxiinE
ut Least One Man.
Away back In the SOS there was
Shawnee Indian village on the South
Canadian River about eighty-hve miles
west Of South McAlester, but the old
village has long since disappeared. On
the spot where the young Shawnee
buck sung his ki0wala to his dusky
maiden and courted his best girl by the
light OF the full moon, only IN occa-
siOnal rock hearth and few graves
are left to indicate the former hunting
ground Of the red man.
Near the old village site now lives q
white man. Just on the border OF this
mans farm Is q spot which seems to
have been the thickest settled part Of
the Shawnee village, and here Is Q
grove of black oak trees. In this grove
are two very large post oak trees, one
In the south and one In the north end
Of the grove. In the grove can be heard
most any day the buzzing Of swarm
of bees so plainly that the noise has
fooled many old bee hunters, but all
their search has never revealed a SIN
gle bee.
Now comes the most peculiar part OF
this most peculiar tale. The large post
oak tree standing at the north end OF
the grove is the curiosity Of the bunch.
for not long ago young man hearing
OF the bees went to the spot and pro.
ceeded to look carefully up each tree In
the grove until he came to the north
oak. Hewas within two feet Of this tree
looking up when he heard a noise just
like a carpenter at work mailing on
boards and the noise seemed to come
from the tree. He went around 1t sew
eial times trying to locate the hammer
Ing, but II still seemed to come from the
tree, the hammering continued until he
happened to touch the tree with hla

man then went away amazed. A day
or SO after this man had occasion to
again pass that way. He slipped up
to the tree and listened for the ham.
merlng, and sure enough. 1t wns MS
plain rs ever. He touched the tree with
the end of his finger and as before the
noise stopped at once. This man and
several others have tried touching the
tree several times since with the same
results.
They say that the humming Of bees
and the curious hammerlng can be
heard any day, but no one has been
able to explain the mysteries of this en-.
