UP FROM WAuSAU

Karl Mathie, the superintendent OF
the Wausau city schools, arrived in the
city Saturday evening to confer with
B. B. Jackson the newly elected super
indent of the Superior schools, in the
preparation of the program for the next
meeting of the Northern Wisconsin
Teachers Association. Mr.. Mathie is
a brother-in-law of j. H. Burch and
there are few educators in Wisconsin
who have achieved such success In
educational work as has fallen to his
lot. All the officials and all the citizens
of Wausau are thoroughly in sympathy
with Mr. Mathie and his work and they
are willing to concede any request he
makes as they are so well satisfied with
the results that always come.
The school board has just completed
a new high school building there which
cost $50, 900. 1t is fitted up for a COM
plete course in manual training and
contains beautiful assembly room as
we'll as rooms for all other purposes. 1t
is without doubt the finest high school
building in Wisconsin. The construc-
ton of this building was brought about
largely through the efforts of V. A. Al
derson, who is well known here having
formerly been manager of the Vaughn
estate. Mr.. Anderson in now mayor OF
Wausau and is giving such splendid
administration that his reelection is as.
sured by big majority. : He is greatly
interested in advancing the interests OF
the schools and devotes great deal OF
his time to giving personal attention to
the duties of the Office, which accounts
for his success. Mr. Anderson is guided
solely by desire to give Wausau an
honest business administration and as
he has no selfish wishes to be granted
the citizens of Wausau are indeed for
tunate to have him their mayor.-Ash-

M NE. MEDINI,

Whose present headquarters are in Chi
cago, has been giving a series of lessons
in vocal culture to some of cur musical
people in the form of lectures, illustrat-
ing with voice and blackboard. The
enthusiasm of the subscribers has been
the proof of the artistic success of the
work, which is pronounced revelation
of what vocal art means.
Madame Medini is pleased to add to
her list of credentials the judgment of
musicians of her own state, as since the
year she opened her studio in New
York she has been acknowledged as
one of the foremost writers on the SUBJ
iect, and is the possessor of fattering
letters from celebrated musicians of
Germany, France, Italy and South
America, testifying to the good her re-
markable work has done the cause.
She attracted the attention of Verdi
during her student days by her extreme
conscientiousness, and he sent her his
photograph and autograph, saying

DISASTROUS FIRE.
The Lumber District of Ashland Fire
Swept on Sunday.

Ashland Suffered a severe fire on Sun
day last and when the flames were
finally extinguished four men had lost
their lives and 81, 400, 600 worth of prop
erty had been destroyed. The fire
originated in the east side of the Bar
ker 4 Stewart lumber yard and spread
rapidly. Here about $4,000, 600 feet of
lumber were destroyed. Next the lum-
Der in the Keystone yard caught fire
and burned. A heavy wind was blow
ing at the time and the Barker & Stew
art mill and all those in the neighbor-
hood were threatened. Indeed it
looked as II the whole town were in
danger at one time The mill was
saved, but the docks belonging to the
above named company were burned.
The lumber did not belong to Barker
& Stewart, but vas the property of Ed
ward Hines, OF Chicago. AT the time
that the fire was raging tiereest, dyna-
mite was used to blow up lumber piles
and docks. While four men of the crew
were at work in doing this they found
themselves cut off by the flames. Help
could not reach them and they persisted
in full sight of thousands of spectators.
The fire would have ignited the mills,
had not heavy rain fallen, which pre-
vented further destruction.

LOST IN WOODS.
August Meibach Spends Two Days
In the Woods.

Monday morning it was rumored
around town that a man, who had
started out the previous morning to
pick berries, had not returned and it
was feared some accident had befallen
him. The man was August Maibach,
and when he did not return Sunday
night his wife was much alarmed She
waited until the next day before doing
anything definite. Monday morning
he still was missing, so Mrs. Maibach
told her neighbors and large crowd
started out to look for him. 1t was
known that he had gone to the woods
south or southwest of the city, and it
was that direction that the searchers
took. A large crowd of men started
out, many of the employees of Curtis d
Yale making up the party, and fully 100
men in all must have taken part in the
search. Monday passed without his
being found, though reports of varying
accuracy came in from time to time.
This morning it was asserted that
he had been found, and this
final announcement proved true.
The missing man was found between
3 and 5 O'Clock this morning in wind
fall in the great swampy and wood
district lying between Rib and Mosinee
hills. He was fist found by farmers
boy named Braun, who had been at
tracted by his cries for help, or as
others claim, who had been drawn to
the place where Maibach was by his
dog. But Braun was closely followed
by Art Swischer, one of the searching
party, who was the first of the Wausau
men to come up. Maibach was found
very weak and much exhausted He
had lost his way on Sunday and the
heat and lack Of food added to his dis
comfort. He had about given up in
dispair, when he was fortunately dis
covered. The other searchers were
Immediately notified and separate par
ties kept coming in all the morning.
VIM. Maibach was brought home and
in few days it is believed he will en-
tirely recover from the nervous and
weak state, which his unpleasant ex-
perience caused. The affair caused
quite sensation in Wausau, for it has
been several years since anyone has
been lost in the neighboring woods and
such an event was considered almost
impossible. Many of the sawmills and
factories closed down this morning so
join in the hunt

MRS. EUNlCE MARBLE
Died on Sunday Morning at the home
OTHER Daughter

Mrs. Eunice Marble, mother of Mrs
j. B. Vaughn, died in this city on Sun
day morning She has been seriously
i'll for the past two years but was not
confined to her bed only during the
last two weeks of her life. Her final
illness was general breaking down
caused by old age, she having reached
the ripe old age of seventy-five years.
She was born in the state of New York,
where she spent her childhood days and
was married Shortly after her mar
riage she came west with her husband
and located at Jefferson, Wis. Her
husband died many years ago, leaving
her with large family of small chill
dren to bring up, which she did, and
who have always been source of COM
fort to her, especially SO in her declin-
ing years. Seven years ago she came
to Wausau to live with her daughter,
Mrs. j. b. Vaughn. She was loved by
all who had the honor of her acquain-
lance and to them as we'll as to rela-
tives and friends in other sections of the
county, her death has caused deep sor-
row. She leaves two sons and two
daughters to mourn her loss-James,
who resides in Iowa, and George, OF
Dakota; Mrs. j. B. Vaughn, of this city,
and Mrs. Chas. Braman, of Jefferson,
Wis.
The funeral services took place at 9

RIGHT OF AUTOMOBILES.

On April 10 County Judge Sutherland
at Rochester, N Y, rendered an inter
esting decision regarding the rights
and liabilities of automobiles. Fred
Mason and another recovered iudg-
ment for damages in the municipal
court against Jonathan West, whose
horseless vehicle frightened horse be-
longing to the plaintiffs and caused
him to run away In reversing this
Judgment Judge Sutherland said "lf
one should find it desirable to go back
to primitive methods and trek along a
city street with four-oX team and
wagon of the prairie-schooner variety,
it would possibly cause some uneasi-
ness in horses unused to such sights.
Yet it could not be actionable, in my
opinion, if a runaway should result,
provided due care were shown not un-
necessarily to interfere with the use OF
the highway. Horses may take fright
at conveyances that have become obso-
lete as well as at those which are novel;
but this is one of the dangers Incl
dental to the driving of horses, and the
fact cannot be interposed as a barrier
to retrogression or progress in the
method of locomotion. Bicycles used
to brighten horses, but no right Of
action accrued. Electric street cars
have caused many runaways. Auto
mobiles operated without steam by
storage batteries or by gasolene ex-
plosion engines, running at moderate
speed, may cause fright to horses I'M
used to them, yet the horse must get
used TO them or the driver take his
chances. 1t will not do to say that it is
proper to run any kind of a contrivance
upon the street in which persons may
be, carried. A machine that would go
putting and snorting through the
streets, trailing clouds of steam and
smoke, might be nuisance, but this is
not such a case. The temporary in
convenience and dangers incident to
the introduction of these modern and
practical modes of travel upon the
highway must be subordinate to the
larger and permanent benefits to the
general public resulting from the adop-
ton of the improvements which science
and inventive skill have perfected. -

to the proper committee. One matter,
that. it is to be hoped, was finally set

COM M UNlCATED

The University of Minnesota reaches
down helping hand to common schools
of the state. Annually it gathers with
in its walk thousand to thirteen hun
dred teachers from all the grades of pub
lie schools, and offers them, gratis, in
struction by the best talent it can com
mand 1t does not feel that it stoops to
conquer when it gives first and largest
place to the common branches. Read
ing, arithmetic, grammer, geography
and methods of teaching hold conspic-
uous place on the program, and classes
in two or four sections under trained
specialists make daily recitations in
each branch. OF course, the needs of
students and teachers in high and nor
NAL schools and colleges are not neg
lected. University students are here
working for credits in their course lead
ing to a degree, and professors are
gathering inspiration and help for the
labors of the coming year The resources
of tbs great university are open TO all
and the great public library and other
educational agencies of Minneapolis are
at their command
| The state maintains in addition an
extended system of county summer
schools. In these, all instructors are
employed and paid by the state and all
other expenses, except some few purely
local ones, as rent of hall, similarly met
Advantage is taken of the central loca-
ton and superior facilities Of the nor
NAL schools and larger high schools.
The county summer schools are in ses-
sion generally in the month of July,
then follows the University summer
school in August which is meant TO be,
partly, at least roundup of the most
progressive of the students in the coun-
| ty schools.
This, in brief, is an outline of sys-
tenn designed to uplift the common
schools by direct action upon the teach
ers who in any scheme of education are
the controlling force. Perhaps the
most remarkable feature Of the system
is the intimate relation between the
University and the common school.
The exact number enrolled this sum
mer can not give, but know that be-
fore the close of the third day 953 had
registered. Among this number are
seven Of Wausau's grade teachers, tie
teachers of the training school, and
several others from Wisconsin.
