DIED FROM INJURY.

Tuesday evening, between and
o'clock, Ed. Pepper, one of our old
residents, passed away at his home, ia
Washington street. Death was the re-
suit of an injury received two days
previous. On Sunday evening, Pepper
fell from a porch to the ground below,
a distance of several feet. He was able
to rise, and went into the house. but
complained of great pain. A physician
was summoned, who, after making an
examination, found his patient to be
suffering from internal injuries of such
a nature as to Danish all hope of re-
covery.
Deceased was born June 24th, 1856,
in Adams county, Wis, and had been a
resident of this city for nearly twenty
years. He leaves wife and four chill
dren, the oldest eleven years of age and
the youngest five. Funeral was held
Thursday AFTERNOON at two O'Clock
from the residence of Mrs. Newton, 800
Main street.

together to represent the larger streams.
The railroads were represented by
heavy copper wire. The background
of each town was made up of different
seeds and and grains put on with a
mixture of glue and paste. Tiny silk
flags represented the schools, and red
cardboard showed the villages and
towns. The map alone was beautiful
piece of work, and attracted more
attention than anything else in the
building.
"The background of the other space
was covered with light green paper, as
were also the shelves below both spaces.
This paper was also product of the
county, manufactured from native hem
lock. This background held the eX-
hibit of grasses, intermixed with corn
on the stalk, and was as fine display
of timothy, clover, red top and other
grasses as could be grown anywhere.
Notwithstanding the dry season, sam
Piles of timothy ft. high from different
parts of the county were there, and
there was one bunch of mammoth
clover 81 fit. long. Alsick and alfalfa

CHARLIE MCCROSSEN.

Our old friend, Charlie McC Crossen,
writes the Pilot from Mountain Lake,
Mimi, to let all know that he is still on
earth. Charlie is and has been for
some time selling land and improved
farms, with headquarters at Mountain
Lake. Among other things he says ::
"Our county here is in fine condition,
everything looks we'll in the way of
crops. While we have had very hot
weather and still have it with us, still
the barley, oat and hay crops have all
been saved, and our wheat is being cut
and most of the farmers are through
with that and have gone to blowing.
Am sorry to learn of viii De Woes
death. Give all of my friends my bes t
regards, and do not forget my friend,
the mayor"

DIES SUDDENLY.

VIM Lenz, or more Familiarity known
as VIM. Schroeder, died at an early
hour Thursday morning, after an i'll
ness of two days, His death was due
to congestion of the brain, brought on
by the excessive heat of Monday. On
Monday evening he was taken with a
severe headache while at work, and on
Tuesday morning was forced to go to
bed, suffering intense pain from that
time on until midnight, when he be-
came unconscious, and in this state he
lay until death relieved him.
Mr.. Lenz was a well known young
man of the town. Born in Germany
Dec. 26th, 1879, he came to this country
in early childhood days and had grown
to manhood in this city. For nearly
ten years he had worked for the Wau-
sau Electric Co., commencing as an APP
prentice and working his way up to
position of competency as an electric
ian of trust. A skillful mechanic of an
industrious nature, he gained the conf
dence of his employers; socially indif-
ferent to morOseness, and whose acts
were never displeasurabe to others, he
naturally was held in high esteem by
great many friends.
He was married about fonr years ago
to Miss Anna Wagner, by whom he is
survived, as he is also by one child.
He was member of the Royal Arcan-
um, in which he carried $1,000 insnr-
and the Eichenkranz. Funeral took
place Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock
from st. Pauls church Rev F. Schaer
conducted the service, while the inter-
ment was under the direction of the
societies to which deceased belonged.

Mayor, Harrison, of Chicago, has
been up to MinOcqua with party from
his city. They went to Ashland by
boat, and then down by railroad. The
lakes of Northern Wisconsin are
attracting many from the southern and
central states, and are bound to become
very popular resorts for those seeking
cool and delightfcl places during the
hot months of summer, Wausau peo-
pie will make a mistake if they do not
select some pretty lake, purchase a few
hundred acres of its shores now, while
it can be had for song, and improve
the same as they can. 1t will prove a
good investment as well as a source of
pleasure to owners and their relatives
and friends in future years.
During the heavy thunder storm of
Wednesday large new barn of Carl
Schuetz, who resides on the town line
road in the town of Wausau, just east
of and adjoining the poor farm, was
struck by lightning. One end of the
building was reduced to slivers, which
Immediately caught fire, and the build
ing was consumed by the flames. When
the fire was noticed an effort was made
to save the live stock, which was accom-
plished. The fire spread to other build
ings and several were consumed, and
it was only through the hard work of
neighbOrs that the flames were checked
from making a clean sweep. Mr..
Schuetz had just finished cutting his
hay crop, and had stored the same in
the barn, which of course was entirely
consumed His loss will reach nearly
$4,000, which is partially covered by
insurance.

cioYerS were also there, and samples of
the second hay crop 81 ft. high. The
wonderful capability of the soil for the
growth of grasses was perhaps best
illustrated by sample of common mil
let, which measured to the highest tops
y it. The crop is not very desirable
one, as it is very weakening to the soil.
Fine samples of grains of all kinds,
both in stalk and sacks, were shown, of
which barley and oats deserve special
mention. The vegetables, culinary and
stock, were wonderful, but not surpris-
ing to those acquainted with the soil of
Northern Wisconsin. The surprising
part to nearly all was the display of
corn and apples which few years ago
was considered impossible crops for
that part of the state. Numerous sam
pies of corn, including white dent, fully
ripe, and some 40 varieties of apples
were shown and scored as high as the
exhibits from the southern counties
Good tobacco was also shown, and the
exhibit was completed by photographs
of farms and farm buildings of North
ern Wisconsin.

old friend, Hod Blanchard, but we won't
stand for it. Hod can have the pick of
our ward robe for that dance, and leave
his dress suit at home.

FAIR ATTRACTION,
Trained Horse, Decryon, Owned BY
Dode Fisk, Will be Here.

OOQe FISK, VIII DE Here.
Secretary Wright, last Tuesday, Sc
cured the famous trained horse, owned
by Dode Fisk, to give exhibitions on
the fair grounds during the fair. The
horse was here one year ago on the
Fourth of July, and pleased all who
witnessed the performance. The ami
NAL is beautiful bay, stands 144 hands
high, has magnificent name and tail.
Harness is pure white leather, mounted
with gold; the wagon is also in white and
gold. The driver works horse in cos
tune of same colors. At the opening
music the horse comes out with a dash,
stops, bows to audience, marches and
drills, does Spanish trot, rears and does
tricks on hind legs, walks lame on
command, walks on his knees, climbs
upon pedestal and does the hooche-
cooche dance, keeping perfect time
with the music. The performance lasts
about thirty minutes. During one of
the evenings, during the fair, the per-
formance will be gone through on one
of the principal streets of our city, at
which time the wagon and trappings
will be Illuminated with electric lights,
making it a magnificent spectacle.
Decryon has a trotting record of 2:31.
These exhibitions will take place every
afternoon and are sure to prove great
drawing cards.

The premium list of the Marathon
County Fair for 1901 is out Parties
desiring them can obtain copies by
dropping a postal to l.. X Wright,
Secretary, Wausau, Wis The lists
were printed by the Wausau Daily
Record which secured special premium
offers from nearly all advertisers, these
premiums are given on farm produce
and are to go to farmers living outside
the city of Wausau. The premiums
offered on stock and produce compare
favorably with any fair in the state.
Special features in advance of former
years are the prizes offered in breeders
classes for Short Horn and Red Poll
cattle. The managers of the fair are
endeavoring to show our people some
of the best herds of these breeds in the
state. The exhibits of cattle last year
were largely responsible for the bring
ing in of a dozen thoroughbred bulls,
which must materially improve the
grade of cattle raised in the neighbOr-
hoods where they are. A few of our
farmers, notably Briggs and Slater,
VIM. Schubring, p. +. Curran, j. H.
Kennedy, Robt. Freeman, Kline Bros,
q. w. Witter, and a few others whose
names we do not recall, have been
working for years to induce their neigh
borS to breed their herds to good Sires.
1t has been a hard fight but their efforts,
together with those of the Marathon
County Fair and the introduction of
creamerieS are beginning to tell, and in
few years Marathon county cattle
will compare with any in the state. It's
the earnest wish of the fair managers
to help this cause along, and they be-
lieve this can best be done by showing
the results of long years of good breed
ing.
Another new feature is in the dairy
department, instead of offering a few
dollars for first and second premium,
for creamery butter, there is S25 100 put
up, which viii be divided among all
creameries which score ninety per cent.
or better on their butter, each point
from Lightweight to nlnety-three per
cent. entities a contestant TO one share
of the premium, and each point above
ninety-three entities to two shares.
This is a much fairer way than the old
method, rs any butter scoring over
ninety per cent. is 4 credit to the
maker.

tural Society is also advertised. 1t will

Tour with Boston Symphouy.

Lenora Jackson was the soloist OF the
big Boston symphony orchestra on their
tour last spring, and won brilliant osa.
tions at Boston, Providence. New York,
Brooklyn, Philadelphia and baltimore.
She has the honor of being the FIRST
American vioiinist to secure such an en-
gagement with that famous organiza-
tion. She was special solois, with the
Chicago tThomas1. st. Lonis, New York,
Pittsburg. Cincinnati and other great
symphony orchestras. Her tour in
cluded sixty OF our greatest cities ia the
United States and Canada, and in every
way was most brilliant success. The
demand for Miss jackson TO remain in
this country for another tour was SO
strong that she has decided TO postpone
her return to Europe for another season
so that she may visit many cities which
it was impossible to reach in the short
tour last spring. The Pacific coast lie
to be visited, and this makes i, possible
for the people oil Tucson to hear one OF
greatest artists of the world, and her
assistant company.

The Big Race
Meet For Tucson.

Preparations for the big race meet to
be held in Tucson February %, 23, and
"a, are being made upon extensive and
very liberal lines. The local horsemen
and officers OF the Tucson driving club
are taking hold of the matter with en-
ergy, and are pushing it with all the
spirit that characterizes American Ego"
and Tucson progress.
Secretary schuster was recently
chosen by the club to canvass southern
and southeastern Arizona in order to
feel the pulses of horsemen in those Sec
tions and to advertise thoroughly the
big event. Among the many towns vis-
tied by the secretary were Bisbee, Naco,
Nogales, Wilcox, and Tombstone. In
his statements to Citizen reporter,
Secretary Schuster said that his recep-
tion and mission were received in all the
towns visited, with great interest and
enthusiasm. Many horsemen who are
justly proud of their blooded stock went
so far as to venture the inquiry. "Why
haven't we thought OF this matter be-
fore?'' and were assured by the genial
secretary that the Importance of the
meet and the large crowds of enthusias-
tic people who mean to attend would
cheerfully overcome all such regrets.
Among those who will bring in run.
ming stock may be mentioned the we'll
known horsemen John Gardner, James
Heron, John Hall, and Nat Brown.
These gentlemen are celebrated as nc.
curate judges Of good stock, and put
upon the track none but thoroughbreds.
In the roping contest which takes
place Saturday. February "a, Henry
Aston and Henry Pyeatt, win enter the
lists.
1t is conservatively estimated that be-
tween 500 and 600 people from south
eastern Arizona will attend, and this
number coupled with that from other
more populous localities will insure q
big crowd from Tucson. 1t 10 but fair
to state that the alert and enterprising
merchants of the city are taking more
than q normal interest in the matter,
and undoubtedly mean TO donate to the
popular subscription 90 raise money to
