THE OBSERVER.
WE THOUGHT so.

For some time past nothing has been
heard about our beautiful new electric
road, which claimed so much attention
only short time ago. That sometime
we shall have trolley line in this part
of this state, nearly all believe, but very
few of US are looking for it immediate
ly The east is covered with perfect
network of electric railroads, and the
system is fast extending west. Just as
soon as conditions will warrant it we,
too, shall have trolley. But in spite
of the Daily Record s glowing optimism
not many people were carried away, for
they do not believe that as yet the time
is ripe.

THE PLAY.

Everything reminds US that summer
| is nearly over and that the autumn
| days will soon be here. With the first
encouraging sign of cool weather the
| theatrical season opens for another
nine months, and we notice that in the
! larger cities many new plays are al
ready being presented. Not having
| access to all the riches of metropolitan
| productions, we are hoping that Man
| ager Cone has been energetic during
| the booking months and has engaged
| some first class attractions for us this
| winter. There is no reason why Wau-
| sau cannot have as good plays as can
| La Crosse, Oshkosh, Madison or Super
| ior, for there are plenty of excellent
| entertainments on the road, ready and
glad to secure a good stand. The pros
| pect is encouraging when we see that
Mr.. Cone has for a starter placarded as
new play as Lovers Lane" and we
hope that this high standard can be
kept up. Then, too, public taste here
| is more exacting than it has ever been
before and it dictates what plays the
people wish to see, as we'll as showing
itself in our improved streets and new
homes.
All Oh us nave Hedtu Inc Olu audSe,
when doctors disagree" etc, but
down on the corner of Third and Nc
Clellan streets three who bear that title
seem to be getting along excellently.
Perhaps it is because they all belong to
different departments of medicine, but
whatever it is, their combined endeav-
or is resulting in a very handsome new
building, one that will be desirable
improvement to our city. The new
home of the Wausau Gas Co. is also
one of the most attractive blocks we
have. just as someone has said, when
ever Mr. Plumer has anything done,
it's done right. There has certainly
been great deal of building this sum
mer, and all of it has been solid and
substantial, from the new Pilot build
ing to the cement sidewalk around the
post Office block. Few people realize
what is being done, but just go up on
east hill and look over the city and the
new houses and buildings everywhere
will astOnish you.

BOTH WAYS ON WHITAKER.
Cars Are Running That Way Because
of House Drainage Work.

Street cars are running both ways on
Whitaker street. The arrangement is
only temporary. however, as it is necessi-
tated by the house drainage on CASTOR
street. which has reached Whitaker. 1t
became necessary for the street railway
company to change its system of running
cars on Whitaker, as they could not cross
the deep ditch on Gaston.
Cars now run south on Whitaker to
CASTOR street. where they discharge their
passengers and transfer them to another
cars then return north on Whitaker en-
circling the Abercorn belt and running up
90 the ditch again on the south side of
Whitaker The arrangement is similar to
that which was effective last year when
the Castor street ditch crossed Abercorn
street, only che regular schedule time was
maintained then. Last night cars ran
north on Abercorn street anywhere be-
tween half and three-quarters Of an hour
aud residents of the southern section OF
the city could walk from Fortieth street
to the Bay between cars.
Only three or four days VIII be re-
quired to complete the pipe-laying on Gas
ton just where the Whitaker street line
crosses. The cars will then resume their
regular schedule, running south on Whit
aKer until sush time as the turnouts and
switches on that street have been con
structed. when the service will be operal-
ed IN both directions.

TEN FlREMEN SICK.
Work on the New Fire station Had
to BE stopped.

w DC 9Aopptus
Work on the new fire station al Barn
ard and thirty-eighth streets has been
stopped and the men detailed for that
duty were ordered back to their stations
yesterday morning. The prevalence of
grip is responsible for the shut down
and there is no telling just when the
work will be taken up again.
As the Morning News has already stat
ed the finishing of the house was left
to the men in the department and de-
tail has been at work for some time.
Slowly the number of sick began 20 in
crease until at present there are ten
men confined 10 their homes with the
grip With the exception of Forman
Arthur Toshach of Ell gine Company No. .,
on Oglethorpe avenue. every foreman
in the department is suffering from this
disease and is off duty Not only has
the work on the new engine house been
stopped but orderes were issued yester-
day by Superintendent Mcguire to the
effect that there would he no day off
until the recovery of those now sick
This means that the well men must
serve continually until the health of the
department is improved
Forman Joseph Campos of Headquar-
tiers, who has been quite i'll with grip
was able to take d short walk yesterday
but is not yet strong enough to report
for duty. Forman Campos' wife and
child have been quite sick with the same
malady, but are also convalescing
While several members of the police
force are on the sick list the grip does
not appear to have the hold on that
branch of the municipality that it has on
the fire ladies

Of the new structure and its evident suit

purposes. Or. Waller made an affecting
and affectionate reference to the late
queen Victoria. who, he said, was one
of the queenliest women and one of the
most womanly queens who had ever dwelt
upon earth. SO great had been her in

said, that when her life ana history come

CHARITY THE CHIEF TOPIC.
Discussed by the Members of the
Ministers Association.

Discussed by the Members Oh the
Ministers Association,
The Ministers Association held its Feb
ruary meeting yesterday in the rooms of
the Young Mems Christian Association
The chief matter considered was the pro-
posed associated charities organization,
the second public meeting for the consid-
Grafton of which will be held this after
noon at 4:S0 O'Clock al the City Exchange.
1t is hardly likely that the matter will
be gone into at great length this after
moon. as the ministers practically decid-
ed Yesterday that they would suggest that
Mr. Louis Stephens be empowered to Sc
cure subscriptions for the proposed asso-
citation. and that no further steps be TAX
en- i'm the matter until the result of this
canvass is seen.
Several of the ministers have secured
subscriptions from members of their con-
gregations, and from the spirit that was
evidenced they think that the public, as
a whole, is in sympathy with the move
ment, and is willing to subscribe to It,,
but from business or other reasons does
not care to take an active part in the
organizing because of che sacrifice of time
that IL might entail.
1t was supposed that the question Of
the proposed Sunday concerts would be
brought up at this meeting. but it was
not as the ministers consider the mat
ter as having been practically decided
and have no fear that the ordinance pro-
posed by Alderman Jones will so through

LUTHERANS CELEBRATE.
Have Cleared From Debt the Proper
~ of the Church of the Ascension.


ty of the Church of the Ascension.
Through the efforts of the Parsonage
Aid Society of the Lutheran Church of
the Ascension sufficient money has beeh
raised to pay off the last instalment of
the outstanding debt against the parson-
age, so that now the church property is
entirely free from debt.
SO pleased were the ladies with the
happy contamination of several years
hard work for this purpose, that last
night they celebrated the event by a
social gathering at the home of Mr.. Jacob
Paulsen, one of the trustees of the
church. Mrs. Henry Schroeder. president
Of the Aid Society turned over to Mr..
Paulsen a check for the amount due on
the parsonage. and in a short speech con-
graduated the church on its good fortune
in being out of debt. Mr.. Paulsen, on be-
half of the church officers. responded by
paying to the members of the society
high tribute for their untiring energy in
the cause and work of the church.
Some idea of the excellent work done
by these ladies may be CLEANED from the
fact that eight years ago, when Rev. DR..
w. c. Schaeffer assumed the pastorate of
the church, not only was there a debt of
5000 on the church but there was no par
sonage. Since that time the church debt
has been wiped out and the present site
of the parsonage, No 222 Montgomery
street, and the building was bought and is
now paid for. During the eight years of
existence of the Parsonage Aid Society
Mrs Adam Kesse has held the position
of treasurer. and has been one of the
most active members of the society

STABBED IN A QUARREL.
ID. siIverstein, saloon Man, Cut by a
Desperate Negro.

Desperate Negro.
d. Siverstein, proprietor of a bar at
No 232 st. Julian street. west, was muir
derously assaulted in his place of business,
shortly before II O'Clock last night, by a
negro named John Wine. The saloon man
received an gully cash over the right eye
and bled profusely.
Wine ran east on st. Julian street pur-
sued by Patrolman Rauzin, who was on
duty in the neighborhood. The officer
fired one shot at the escaping negro on
Barnard and Bay street and attracted the
attention of NJ. J. Falvey, employed as
Waterman at NJ Ferst's Sous & Co.'S
place
The negro was in the act of running un-
der the bluff, at the foot of Whitaker
street, when Waterman Falvey grabbed
him. Falveys pistol under the negro
nose frightened him. and Wine remained
quiet until the arrival of Patrolman Rau-
Yin, VINO was only a short distance be-
hind The prisoner was sent to the po-
lice station. where he was confined on a
charge of assault with intent to murder.
II seems that Wine and two companions
went into SilVersteins bar and were drink
ing when a dispute arose with the pro-
prietor. The negroes were under the IN
fluence of liquor and two of them drew
ugly looking knives and slashed at the
saloon man The blade of Wines knife
made a bad wound, but the other negro
did not land. The three men ran out of
the bar at the same time, and ieft in
different directions. The patrolmah
thought ii best to run down the man who
had done the cutting and the Others made
their escape. The chase was an exciting
one and the firing of the pistol attracted
quite a crowd for that hour of the night.
