Last Friday, while Supt. Head, of the
County Asylum, was working at his
apiary, an Infatuated bee stung him in
the corner of the right eye. The eye
began to swell Immediately and the
poison of the sting spread rapidly until
it affected that side of his face and the
right side of his body. Supt. Head
never before had such an unpleasant
experience and for two OF three days he
suffered from the sting. Today the
swelling has gone down and Mr..
Heads face has assumed its normal
condition.
In some respects Merrill, the little
city at our north, can be said to be way
ahead of us. 1t may not be so large or
so rich as Wausau, but it is far more
progressive and improvements never
stand still there. At the beginning of
the year Merrill had many more paved
streets than we had, but during the
summer the work has kept up steadily,
until now the handsome, well keptroad-
ways put our streets to shame. There
is no reason why Wausau should be
bettered by Merrill in this respect and
we should not let our little rival get
ahead of us.
