ORWNE-STROBRIDGE.

This morning, Tuesday, October 10th,
1900, at $50 o'clock, Mr.. w. r. Browne,
of Minneapolis, was united in marriage
to Miss Franc D. Strobridge, of this
city, the Rev. Frank A. Pease, of the
First Methodist church, officiating.
The wedding was a very quiet one,
only relatives and few intimate
friends being present. The ceremony
took place at the home of the brides
father, on Forest street, and was very
impressive. After the hearty congratu-
lations of the assembled guests, we'd
ding repast was served, and at 11:55
Mr.. and Mrs. Browne took the North
western passenger for Minneapolis
where they will make their future
home Quite number of old time
friends were at the depot to wish them
God-speed on their voyage over the
matrimonial sea.
The bride is the daughter of Cyrus
Strobridge, an old and esteemed resi-
dent of our city, who has been well
known to the old citizens of Wausau,
Merrill and the Wisconsin River Val
ley since 1848. The bride is his young
est daughter and since childhood she
has lived here and has been a great
favorite with everybody. She received
her education in our city schools and
at the State Normal School at Oshkosh,
and il was while at the latter insti-
tuition that she met the gentleman
who is now her husband. She has been
valued teacher in our city schools for
quite a number of years and she will
be greatly missed not only from the
home and from the school, but
from Wausau society in general.
The groom is not known to many
of our city, but those who are
his acquaintance loudly sing his prais-
es as a very worthy young man, and
one whose business qualifications rank
very high. His business and home are
in Minneapolis where he has resided
for many years, and it is in that city
that they will reside and the best
wishes of their numerous friends will
go with them to their new home.

GAVE SATISFACTION.
The Generous Hospitality Pleased
Visiting Teachers.

While talking about the convention,
Mr.. Mathie expressed himself as highly
pleased over the manner in which the
Woman's Club, the various church
societies, and the citizens in general
had responded to his request to enter
tain the visiting teachers. He says
that on every hand he heard the utmost
satisfaction with the entertainment,
not only because of room and board
SO kindly offered, but because of the
cordial welcome to the homes, the
teachers being received as guests of
honor aud like friends rather than
strangers, they felt that in Wausau at
least, the teacher is looked upon as a
person worthy of attention. Another
source of gratitude to the city superin-
tendent is the manner in which the
people visited the convention. Mr.
Mathie says he honestly believes there
is no teacher who visited the conven-
ton who does not think Wausau is the
most cordial and hospitable city in the
state. His opinion.is corroborated by
many others who say they have not
heard one word of complaint from the
six hundred teachers in attendance
Mr. Mathie feels that great deal of
the success of the convention is due to
the good spirits of the delegates and
that in turn is due to the splendid way
in which they were entertained. 1t
was great relief to him that citizens
kept sending in word that they had
more room to spare if it were needed
so that the committee was able all the
time to keep about twenty-five places
open in case of need He was also
very highly pleased with the efficient
manner in which Mrs Bird performed
the duties of chairman of the entertain
ment committee in the absence of her
husband who was called away on court
duties The music given by the pupils
of the schools and by the orchestra, the
excellent illumination, the voluntary
contribution of Hugo Mumm, the
boxers and regulars and those who
helped fit out the Chinese legion, all
helped greatly in making the conven-
ton success.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
A Boy Shot Through the Head on Sun
day.

A terrible accident happened out in
the town of Wausau, on Sunday after
noon at about o'clock which resulted
in Otto, son of Mr. and Mrs. VIM
Kohnharst, aged fifteen years, being
instantly killed Otto, with his older
brother, August, and several other boys
had been out hunting, and were on
their way home. They stopped at a
neighbours, about one half mile from
home, and while talking with the young
folks, Otto was on plank, one end of
which was defated, his gun was resting
on the ground, and he was lettering as
one naturally would, when the plank
touched the trigger and the gun explod-
ed the charge of shot entered the boys
face just below his right eye, taking
away part of the right side of the head.
Death was instantaneous. The boy
was taken to his home and his parents
are distracted over his sad ending.
Coroner Dickens was called out yester-
! day, and after investigating the case
concluded it was not necessary to hold
inquest.

HON. LOUIS G. BOEIMRICH.

Mr.. Bohmrich took up all of the prom
inent questions before the public this
campaign and handled them in mas
terly manner. His address lasted for
two hours. The PIL0T regrets that it
has not the room to give his remarks in
full, but suffice it to say that Mr.. Bohm-
rich has accomplished much good for
the democratic national, state and
county tickets during his stay in Wau
Sau.
TO THE POINT
At a meeting of the German Maen-
nerverein of the city of Racine Monday
night, strong resolutions in praise of
Mr. Bohmrich were adopted. This
society is non-partisan but it saw the
injustice of the Sentinel article and
promptly resented it with these resolu-
tons.
The German Maennerverein of the
city of Racine, Wis, under the auspices
of which the celebrations of the first
Germans in America is celebrated, is
strictly non-partisan and non-political
Whereas, however, our most distin
guished fellow citizen and honorary
member. the Hon. Louis G. Bohmrich
of Kenosha, Wis, has been recently at
tackled by the press as being man who
has denounced the land of his birth,
and honoring him as we have for many
years, now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the participants
in this grand celebration of the Racine
Maenneryerein, composed of men of all
parties and creeds, do most heartily re-
new our love for and faith in Louis &.
Bohmrich as a man who has always
stood ready to defend the land of his
birth and has always sung its praises,
and more particularly do we honor him
for being an American, loyal to his
adopted country and a worthy example
to all those who come from the father
land and adopt America as their home
and American institutions as their
protector"

AT THE WHITE HORSE TAVERN

In the language of its origin, Sat
The White Horse Tavern" was known
as I'm Weissen Roess'l" Il was pro-
duced in Berlin where it was first
played nearly two years ago, and Sgd
ney Rosenfeld was engaged to put it in
English. The result fully confirmed
the opinion of adopts of dramatic
values, for Wallack's, New York, where
the piece had run of nearly twelve
weeks, was crowded nightly by delight
ed and enthused New Workers. An
inn, snugly set among the Alps in the
Tyrol, with sign showing white
horse, is the scene of the pleasing story
of this three-act comedy In it figure
tourists from busy cities, the simple
mountain folk in their picturesque at
tire and the buxom hostess with her re-
tinue of servants. So realistic were
the scenes, so natural the acting of the
drama, and so true were the characters
and atmosphere, that a New Yorker
who had visited the Tyrol exclaimed,
st is the real Alps, the real White
Horse Tavern p on seeing the play on
its first night The boat landing and
the little steamer, as the latter piled
back and forth with happy tourists,
almost impelled him to make a trip
across the quiet lake and view the
glories of the Alpine sunset. The play
will be produced here with exactly the
same realism and attention to details.

NEW YORK, June 16.-Today's exceed
ingly disquieting news from China was
effective both in the New York and Euro
pean stock markets. and, furthermore, it
was commonly expected that the banks
would make a weak exhibit in their state
ment today. In fact. all the circumstances
OF the morning appeared TO combine to
unsettle further an already greatly per

There were no exceptions OF any con-

The Industrial quarter was heavy, but
the losses there were not as corresponding

The local traction group was neglected
throughout the morning.
While aggressive operations for the short
account were noted throughout the list, ac-
tual liquidation was likewise evident. as il
has been throughout the dealings OF tbs
week There was little actual news bear

prices reflected wholly the Technical trad

All i'm Readiness for the Great

NEW YORK, June 16.-The Suburban
Handicap for three-year olds and over, the
greatest OF American horse races, will be
run this afternoon at Sheepshead Bay.
The purse is $40, 600, the distance one
mile and quarter, and il can be said
without exaggeration that no better lot
OF horses was ever named for a race in
these parts than the thirteen posted as
starters for this afternoons affair.
If the four races that precede the Sub
urban are run promptly, the field will be
summoned from the paddock at 4 O'Clock,
and the event will be over at AIS. The
fifteen minutes is an allowance for rea-
sonable delay at the post There may not
be even that much time wasted.
\ Fitzgerald has been doing tiptop work
with the red flag this season, and no one
would be astonished if he sent them away

heavy showers OF Thursday evening rather
helped than hurt IL. and 1t was drying out
fast yesterday evening and last night.
