RURAL DELIVERY.
Wausau Has a Route Taking in
Twenty-Five Miles.

Last week, Monday, S. B. Rathbone,
Jr., of Parkersburg, w. Va, special
agent of the free rural mail delivery
service, and j. p Walker, of Boscobel,
state agent of free rural delivery, came
to the city and went over route which
Congressman Stewart had recommends
ed, and which had been granted by the
powers at Washington. The route as
laid out is to the west side to the Merrill
road and thence north to Schmeiden's
farm thence east to the new paper
mill at Brokaw thence east to the Mer
rill road to the old Schwaff farm
thence north to Trappe. From there
the carrier will have to drive back two
miles and then go east and north to
the Gohdes postoffice. From there he
will come to Wausau on the east side,
distributing mail to farm houses along
the route. The whole distance is about
twenty-five miles, but could be short
.ened up several miles by building a
new road to Gohdes from Trappe.
The carrier appointed for this route
is, Henry Lueder who lives on Washing
ton street, and he started on his work
on the morning of February 1st. His
first duty was to get all the names of
those on his route and see that the far
mers complied with the law-to place
mail boxes on the highway passing
their farms. and where houses are close
to the road mail can be delivered there
to. The carrier not only takes mail to
farmers and others, but also receives
mail which can be left in the boxes. He
will also carry stamps and postal cards.
Up to Saturday, Mr.. Lueder had just
covered his territory and made arrange
ments, and yesterday started with mail
for the full route, and hereafter wiki
make the trip daily except Sundays.
This is going to make it wonderfully
convenient for our farL 4ers and others
along the route. 1t will give them a
daily mail where they have only had it
probably once week before. This will
be the beginning of different routes in
this county.
Good roads run all through our
county and the frequency of farms
along the same warrants routes being
established
Those who live along the new route,
and who have been getting mail at
country postoffices, will now have their
mail come to Wausau, care of free
delivery route No. l.

REMARKABLE CONVENTION.

Wausau will long remember, as an
event in her history, the meetings held
at the Y. M. G.. A. Saturday evening,
when International Secretary Fred b.
Smith and State Secretary +. f. Ander-
son addressed the friends and members
of the local Y. M. G.. A. Such a meet
ing can never be forgotten. Mr.. Smiths
speech was wonderful array of facts
and figures as to the success of the work
all over the world. To do it justice it
should be reproduced uerbatim. Many
ladies were present, who had provided
sumptuous meal for the men. The
voluntary Offering for state work was
more than 800, not counting the regt-
lar gift which was before presented.
Wausau was as usual very liberal.
The meeting for men Sunday after
noon at the Opera House was attended
by about 400 men, and thirty promised
to lead new life. 1t was very in
spring time. The speaker was very
forcible and the audience very atten-
tive, but it was reserved for the evening
to witness the greatest meeting in the
history of this city. Not less than 1900
people thronged the new Opera House
and listened to the pointed and power
full address of Mr.. Smith For two
hours the great gathering listened, and
when the opportunity was given for
those who wanted to live a better life,
$50 or more stood and declared such
desire The last address of Mr.. Smith
was at the Presbyterian church last
evening, and was grand meeting.
The service viii be held every evening
during the week at the Presbyterian
church.

A GOOD ATTRACTION.
Because She Loved Him So" Filled
the Opera House Last Night.

The best attraction since the opening
nights of the Grand Opea House, APP
peared in the city last evening at the
Grand. The house was crowded by an
appreciative audience and from the
time the curtain went up until it went
down on each act, there were continual
outbursts of laughter Every number
of the troupe was an artist, but the
very clever work of Thomas David as
"Oliver West" Miss Clara Dickey, as
Gertrude West" John DAILY Murphy,
as John Wetherby" and Miss Effie
Germon, as Mrs. John Wetherby,"
captivated the audience. 1t was an
excellent evenings entertainment and
the large crowd which turned out on
the occasion demonstrates that it only
needs good attractions to fill the Opera
House

CONCERT ARTISTIQUE.
Given at Alexander Hall Last Thurs
day Evening, a Rich Musical
Treat.

Jacob Reuters grand concert artist
que, at Alexander Hall last Thursday
evening, was most decided success as
to the execution of the program. In
deed, many talented musicians are of
the opinion that Wausau's great violin
ist-Jacob Reuter-never played in bet
ter form nor gave his listeners better
selections for an evenings entertain
ment. AS to the attendance, it was not
as large as it should have been. Alex
ander Hall ought to have been crowded
and it would have been if the concert
had been given by artists from away,
who possessed anywhere near the talent
of those who took part in the concert
artistique. This plainly shows that
our citizens do not fully appreciate the
talent we have here. Those who were
present were well repaid, for the con-
cert was among the very best ever
given in our city. 1t was the first con-
cert in which Mr.. Reuter- had appeared
since last winter, and so thoroughly
did he arouse his audience by his superb
violin playing, that he was called and
recalled and his encores were also de-
lightful creations of music which
charmed his hearers. Mrs. E. V. Speer
was accompanist and performed her
different parts with her usual excel
lence. Wausau is indeed to be con-
graduated upon possessing such an
able artist.
Mrs. +. w. Kickbusch's vocal num-
bers were faultlessly rendered. Mrs.
Kickbusch is always greeted with en-
thusiasm by Wausau audiences, and
she grows more in favor at each appear
ance.
One of the features of the evenings
entertainment was Prof. Dygert's man
dolin orchestra. This musical orches-
ira has recently been organized and
comprises the following well known
artists of our city Prof w. NJ Dygert,
first mandolin DR.. Russ Lyon and j.
B. Hall, second mandolins; Henry
Smith, guitar; H. G. Oweise, cello; Ed.
Reynolds, flute; Roy Condo, harp. To
those who had not heard this musical
combination. their playing created
somewhat of a sensation, and they were
heartily encored.
The PILOT would suggest that the en-
tertainment be repeated in the near
future. Any place in which it should
be given, ought to be filed to its utmost
capacity.
The following is the program of the
evening:

Moon Danced q liz.

From reports being spread about
Kenosha this morning very strange
condition prevailed in the heavens last
night. Fred Schroeder, of the firm of
Brown & Schroeder, states that as he
was going home last night he saw the
moon and that it was actually moving
up and down as if dancing jig. A
detective was sent out to investigate
the movements of Mr.. Schroeder be-
fore he started home and it was found
that he had not been any place save to
one of the churches to attend 1enten
service. The strange phenomenon of
the moon moving in this undigni-
fed manner was also seen by a mum
Der of other people but further testi-
mony than Mr.. Schroeder's is not
needed.
