I purpose of placing the new machinery
in the above named mill, and on The
day mentioned was engaged in fixing {
box on running shaft when pincl
bar, which he held in his hand, caugh
in pulley and was thrown back anC
struck him IN the face and imbeddeC
itself in his eye, destroying the sight o
thar optic. His face was also badly Gu
Iup He was taken to the Riverside
! Hospital for treatment, and it has no
as yet been determined whether his eye
will have to be removed. Mr. Carpen

The shirt waist man has made his ap
! pearance in Wausau, aud before the
I season is over it is very probable thai
those wearing that garment will be
cutie numerous, more plentiful in fact
than hens teeth Although men wear
| ing shirt waists have been barred ont
of hotels in the cities and been looked
down upon as inferior beings, yet the
| style is increasing. If women dor
bloomers why shouldn't men wear shirt
waists Mail carrier Job Vaughan
came out last week wearing the much
despised piece of covering, thus setting
the example in Wausau, and there arc
others that will follow, indeed The
portly editoI of this paper is seriously
thinking Of rigging himself up ID like
fashion, and it is quite probable that
the editor OF the Herald, who suggested
the idea to us, will follow likewise
Seim Bros report the largest sales Of
they have been in business. The low
prices they have set on their goods has
| been responsible for this. ...
The suggestion made some time age
by the state board Of health to burn al
the lumber camps in which there were
small poX cases last winter, does not
meet with favor among lumbcrmen
They say that the camps have been
constructed ut considerable expense,
and their destruction would mean quite
loss to them. They also argue that
dwelling houses in cities, where there
has been small poX are not burned, and
that if a house and its carpets and up
holstered furniture can be effectively
fumigated, ii is reasonable to suppose
that the bare walls and floor of .og-
ging camp, with its rough furniture,
can also be flmigatcd so us to prevent
Il recurrence Of the disease next winter
