To the Voters of the Republican Party OF Wood
County. and to all Others interested.

FriendS:-My withdrawal from the
political campaign at this particular
time, after such gratifying support as
l received in the Republican County
Convention, and especially in view of
the imminent success assured our
party and its nominees in this County,
State and Nation, merits few words
of explanation from me, in order that
the good citizens of Wood County
may not be misled by false rumors
as to my reasons for declining the
nomination. My reasons can be
discovered in telegram and letter
recer tly received by me a few days
after the convention was held,
whereby far greater inducements
have been offered me to remain in my
profession as teacher, than are
possible in the office of County
Superintendent of Schools of Wood
County.

Very Successful Church Fair.

Thursday night a three-dayS church
fair, conducted by the Ladies Aid
society of the Catholic church. came
to close at the Opera House. 1t was
well attended throughout and was
much enjoyed for its social features
besides being a splendid financial
success. Something over 5000 was
cleared out of the fair, and of the
immense quantities of useful and
fancy articles. made by the ladies of
the church, donated and purchased
for sale at this fair, none remain un-
sold save few insignificant pieces.
In the voting contest Thursday
evening Gertrude Reiland won the
handsome doll, which netted the
society $127.70. Mr.TObOrne, travel
ing man from Neenah, drew the
Johnson & Hill Co.'S suit, but turned
it over to the society to be auctiOned
off. 1t was bid in by NJ. A. BOgoger
for Mr.. Fogarty of Nekoosa at s1l and
in all netted the society S65. The
handsome quilt, made Of hem-Stitched
linen handkerchiefs and containing
the names of all the ladies of the
society fancifully worked into it, fell
to the lot of Mrs. E. t. Bodette, and
brought S42 to the society.
The Wisconsin River flood, the
session of circuit court and the eX-
citement of the political campaign
detracted considerably from interest
in the fair, still the ladies feel that
they did remarkably well under the
circumstances and desire US to say
that if they made mistakes or over
looked anybody the many difficulties
they had to contend with should be a
sufficient excuse for them.
Thursday night the hall was turned
over to the young people for ball,
which proved a most enjoyable affair
under the inspiration of HirZy S
excellent orchestra and jolly com
pany of young folks.

Two Married Men,

perhaps, in this group is the German
national pavilion. Emperor Wiilidm
has jealously watched every move made
toward the construction and emhellish-
ment of the pavilion from the time he
selected the commission TO the present

was made. as the building is replica
of one of the private bourgeois houses

ercised the genius of the exposition

one of the most attractive sections OF
the great fair.
Like the United States pavilion, these
governmental structures are not expo
sition palaces, but are the headquar-
tiers of the representatives of the differ
ent governments which have built
them. Inside they are furnished with
an elaborateness that is appalling. The
best that each country produced was
seemingly none too good, and every
foreigner who visits the fair may rest
from overmuch sightseeing amidst the
Injuries of his native land.
To enumerate the nations exhibiting
at Paris ii would be to enumerate the
nations Of the world: to attempt to de-
scribe the payi.ions built by them would
be practically impossible. The cnes
