tracing parties were Miss c. Pearl
Morisette and Mr.. Charles f. Green,
both of this city
Miss Alice Blunt attended the bride
whilst Mr.. Victor Morisette was the
groom's best man. Rev. Adam Faw-
cett, pastor Of the Baptist church,
officiated The home was handsomely
decorated for the occasion, with cut
flowers and potted plants. The we'd
ding was very quiet one, only rela-
tives and few intimate friends being
present.
The bride is well and favorably
known to everybody in Wausau, and is
a very popular yorng lady. Her whole
life has been spent here. Sheis grad
uate of the Wausau High School, class

For several years we have sent the
Pilot to our old friend, Ed. Gibbons,
at the poor farm, gratis. On Saturday
we were told by Supt. John Junk, that
unless the address was changed to the
county poor farm, instead of Ed. Glib
bons, he would not carry the same to
poor farm, giving as reason that lit
made trouble" There is only one
way by which trouble could be made,
and that is by keeping the paper from
Mr. Gibbons who is the only one that
has any right to is. This may
have been done by Mr.. Junk or some
Of the inmates, but as 10 this we will
have more to say when we can have
talk with Mr. Gibbons We have al
ways taken Mr.. Junk to be good, kind
hearted man and one fitted for the posi-
ton Of Supt., but when he refuses TO
cater to the pleasure Of any one Of the
unfortunates under him, then il is time
for him TO resign. We do not care 10
be severe with Mr.. Junk at This time
bat il be persists in refusing 10 carry
out the mail to Mr. Gibbons. we will
! see what can be done 10 the matter.

WAUSAU'S POPULAR PASTOR
LEAVES TO-DAY.

Came to Wausau Twelve Years Ago
and Under His Illustrations a
Large and Strong Congregation
Has Been Built Up, Fine Church
Erected and Many Missions Estab-
ished Prominent in the Christian
Work in the State.
Wausau, Wis, Sept S.-Twelve years
ago tomorrow morning there came to
Wausau, at the call of the First Presby
byterian church of this city, young
minister with three years of labor be-
hind him and the world and reputation
to make before him. He came from
Shortsyille, n. Y, little town in
which he had served his first pastorate.
1t was by chance that he received a
call from Wausau. He visited the city
and tie impressions made upon our
people were favorable from the start.
His presence and his preaching were
the kind that the business element, of
which the congregation of the First
Presbyterian church is largely com
posed, took to at once. 1t was love at
first sight and the Rev. Wilbur Oscar
Carrier was installed as the pastor of
the church then having 100 communi-
cants.
THE WORK OF TWELVE YEARS.
Twelve years made wondrous chang
es in that church which now has ATS
members, the result of a steady growth
during all that time. As the church
grew the demands for a new building
pressed themselves upon the congrega-

TO children of men she was 7s years

the black scepterer king she gave up
the struggle and fell asleep as peace
fully and quietly as the crimson lights
fade and die along the sky at the close
of the Junetime day. To her children
and friends she has left an inestimable

Cuban Postal Frauds.

The recently disclosed fra udS
upon the Department of Posts in
Cuba illustrate the ease and com.
parative immunity with which
dishonest officials on the island
might work irreparable harm to
the good name of the United
States. A new series of stamps
was issued about year ago, and
orders were given that the old
stamps on hand-about $40, 600
worth-Should be destroyed.
But the conspirators, instead OF
destroying the stamps, sent them
