DESCRIPTION OF BUILDING
To be Erected by the Wausau Gas
Co. this Summer.

Last week we gave an account of the
purchase of the Bartz property by Hon.
ID. l.. Plumer, and brief account of
the building to be erected by sthat
gentleman on the same. This week we
are able to furnish more detailed ac-
count of the building as to its con-
struction, etc. The building will oc-
cupy ground space of 45x50 feet. The
basement will be constructed of granite,
up about five feet above the sidewalk,
and the ceiling will be of mill con-
struc. N and painted. On the first
floor facing Fourth street will be
general and private offices of the com
pany with a vestibule. This portion of
the building will be built of sawed sand
stone, and the offices will be finished
with panel wainscOting and ceiling of
paneled beams of quarter sawed oak.
The floors will be of tile, and the win
dows will be of heavy plate glass with
prismatic transOmS. Facing jefferson
street on this floor will be the com
panyS store, 2Sx43. The second story
will be constructed of grey hydraulic
pressed brick. There will be row
of columns, each placed seven feet
apart, covered with a heavy carved
stone cap, and the cornice will be of
heavy galvanized iron. This floor will
be fitted up as flat and occupied by
the superintendent John Farrell. The
building will be classic in design and a
pride to the city. The heat for same
will be supplied by indirect steam heat,
the current coming from a large fan
operated by gas engine, and the sup
ply of fresh air will be drawn through
large flue, which will be elevated
about twenty feet above the ground.
By this means the very best heat and
ventilation is assured. The cost of the
structure will be somewhere between
$4,000 and $4,000 Architect Philip
Deane is now at work on the plans.
Bids will be received on same, and it is
thought that work will be commenced
on the construction as early as May LIST.

RAILWAY FRANCHISE.

Next Monday night, April 1st, at the
regular meeting of the City Council, is
the time set for the hearing of the ap-
plication for franchise, asked by the
Wisconsin River Electric Railway Com
pany, for the use of the streets, bridges,
ETC., of the city of Wausau. This is. a
very important matter to everybody,
and one which should not be considered
too hastily. We want street railway,
also an electric railway up the valley,
therefore, the gentlemen who are ask
ing for the franchise should be treated
fairly and no doubt but they will agree
to anything that is reasonable, which
the people of Wausau, through its rep
resentatives, may ask. The PILOT pub
lished the ordinance which Messrs.
Frawley, Bundy & Wilcox have pre-
sented the counsel and the past week
there has been much discussion. Mayor
Anderson is having a large correspon-
dence in regard to the matter and has
learned much about street railways and
franchises since the question came up.
He, has learned that at Ashland the
street railway has franchise for fifty
years, if eXtentions are made as ordered
by the city council; at Chippewa the
street railway company has an exclu-
slve franchise for thirty years; at Eau
Claire, a franchise for thirty years,
twenty years of which is exclusive; at
Oshkosh franchise is given for thirty
five years; at GAINESVILLE, for thirty
years; at Appleton, no limit; at Fond
du Lac, fifty years. The streets are
designated in nearly all the above cities
and the work was to begin within two
months aud quite lot of track to be
constructed within year The I rail
seems to be the one mostly used, but to
be laid, in all cases, so as not to i'm
pede travel.
There is no question that a street rail
way in our city will be great conven-
fence and something which we should
have. The interurban line would prove
q wonderful impetus to the business of
our city. Now, that we want the street
railway and internrban line, it seems
that way can be arranged to secure
them. The PILOT thinks that the time
is too limited; that date for the final
of granting the franchise
should be postponed, so that a full I'M
Outstanding of the matter can be had.
Let there be a public meeting called
and have the franchise thoroughly dis
eussed. Let the city grant the fran
chise, but to be sure, the city should be
thoroughly protected.

A NEW LODGE HALL.

The local branch of the Knights of
Pythias has leased Alexander hall and
in the course of very short time the
same will be remodeled which will give
the members lodge room where they
will feel at home. The lodge room
proper will occupy the space where the
stage now stands. The stage will be
torn out and hall fitted up 30x50 feet
in size. Two paraphernalia rooms will
be constructed as will also two. ante
rooms. The old ticket office will be
fitted up as one of the latter while the
space between it and the stage will be
walled up and used for the other. The
entrance to the lodge hall being made
through these rooms. The hall itself
will be left as it is now and will be used
for receptions, etc. By these arrange
ments the Pythians will be possessed of
as fine lodge rooms as there are in the
state considering room, arrangement
and location. Architect Philip Deane
is now drawing plans for the changes
contemplated

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE.

The Quarterly Conference of the FRS
Methodist church were entertained al
| luncheon, last evening at the parson
age, by Rev. and Mrs. T. A. Pease. AT
eight O'clock the Qasrterly Conference
session was Eeld, and WIS largely at
tended. The usual business of the
! body was attended to, and reports from
! the various officers show the the work
| to be IN prosperous condition The
| three Sunday schools are doing SPLEEN
did work. The Epworth League is
pushing its work along the lines of
practical religion, and has accomplished
| much good. The election of Lamar
SeXmith as superintendent of the CEN
trail Sunday school was confirmed
There have been six accessions to men,
6ership, during the quarter, and one
death in the society, Mrs. Joseph
Gamble. The following resolutions
were passed:
w WHEREAS, In the providence of God,
we have been called upon to part with
our fellow-wOrker and sister in the
church, Mrs. Joseph Gamble; and,
WHEREAS, We have ever found her a
valuable member, consistent chris
tan, and an untiring and devoted
worker in the Masters cause; and
WHEREAS, In her going, there is
vacancy in the Sunday school, the Ep-
worth League, the Womans Foreign
Missionary Society," the Ladies Aid So
ciety,. and in the Quarterly Conference,
therefore, be it
Resotred, That we extend to our
brother and his family, our sincere
sympathy, and that we do assure them
that we shall ever cherish her memory
as one worthy a place among us; and
be it further
ResolUed, That her name shall remain
in the list of Stewards, till the close of
this conference year, and that these
resolutions be spread upon the, records
Ct the Conference, and a copy thereof
be sent to the family of our departed
sister.
The report of the pastor, which is
always one of the features of the con-
ference session, showed that during the
three months passed he has made 800
calls upon the church and congregation,
including large number of visits to
the sick; attended "a social meetings of
the church; preached 26 sermons; been
present at IL social meetings of the Ep-
worth League; lead the Junior League
meetings six times; taught in the three
Sunday schools II times; present at the
7. M. c. A. meetings four times; bap-
tiSed three persons; officiated at 10
funerals, one wedding, and attended
y business meetings; and still there are
some persons who think that a pastor
in these days has little or nothing to do.
Perhaps the most interesting action
of the Conference, at this time, was in
regard to the matters that have to do
with the proposed new church.
The Conference sanctioned the action
OF the Trustees in making the purchase
them to make disposition of the prop
erty now used as a parsonage, and the
church building. Nothing further was
done in regard to the new church plans,
as the society desire to dispose of the
present property before beginning the
building of the new church, which is
certainty in the near future.

THE NEW DIRECTORY.

eral months, is at last finished and TIE
books have been delivered tn the sub

A perfect directory was probably
never made and the present effort will
fill long felt want in the community.
A good directory is 4 great eonven-
fence. Nevertheless, to be strictly
candid, it may be said that a number of
Inaccuracies can be observed in the

FEAR SPREAD OF SMALL POX.

During the past winter, small poX has
made its appearance in nearly every
section of Northern. Wisconsin, but I'M
like other times when the disease pre-
vailed, the cases were mostly mild ones,
and very few deaths resulted. The
greater portion of these cases were con
fined to the lumber camps, and where
the disease broke out in towns it could
usually be traced to some of these
camps. In many mild cases the disease
was often mistaken for chicken pox,
which added dOubly to the danger of a
spread of the disease, for more people
were exposed, and some cases were so
light that a physician WAS not called in
at all. No matter how slightly effected
these persons were, they might at any
time infect those who came in contact
with them with the most deadly form
of the disease.
The malady has been smouldering in
the woods during the winter, and now,
at the beginning of spring, threatens to
break ont and cause serious trouble for
he thickly settled districts near the
pineries. The warm weather of APP
preaching spring is putting an end to
logging operations, and the woodsmen
are returning to the cities, bringing
WIN Iuoln INC germs VI inc ulS6aS6
Unless prompt steps are taken, authori
ties believe there is danger of trouble
more serious even than that experienced
during the winter.
Already the reports of new small poX
cases are numerous, during the last
week over sixty cases having been re-
ported from localities near the lumber
camps
Dr. U. o. b, Wingate, secretary of
the State Board of Health, has been
called to West Superior, where 10 cases
were reported the past week He will
make an effort to check the spread of
the disease in the Northern pineries.
Though there are few cases in Wausau
and Marathon county at present, yet in
Il short time there may be quite a num-
Der, and it behoOves one taken sick with
any of the symptoms of this dread dis
ease to receive medical aid at once, and
precautions be taken to isolate yourself
until you are satisfied of the nature of
YOUR ailment.
