After half million brave men had
gave up their lives in waging a war
that was to settle forever whether slav
cry should exist in this country or not,
the bloodiest war that was ever fought
since the beginning of the world, it
came into the minds of the people that
to do these brave men the homer due
them, their memory should be pre-
served in hitting way No better one
could have been conceived than the
one now in vogue, that of setting apart
one day each year for proper ceremo-
nies and the covering of the graves of
the departed ones. And the day chosen
at the season of the year when the flow
ers are in bloom and vegetation green
makes the task more easy one to per-
form.
The old boys in blue have this year
prepared an excellent and interesting
program to be carried out on Memorial
Day. By a perusal of this, together
with the mayors proclamation, (which
is printed elsewhere) it is is hoped that
every patriotic and true spirited citizen
will lay aside his daily avocation and
join in the exercises in making the day
what it should be-a day of reverence
to the memory of the fallen ones. Great
is the Republic and great are its people
with grateful hearts, and it is hardly

A FORMER WAUSAU BOY.

The following is taken from the
Seattle Daily Times and relates to II
grandson of Mr.. and Mrs. James
McCrossen, of this city, and Il son of
Washington, but who are now visiting
in Wausau. The young man left Wau-
sau when nine years of age. His
brother, Mac" is also an athlete of
note, having for some years ranked
among the best ball players in Wash
ington:
The above half-tone, is of L. E.
Thayer, an Everett lad who has demon
strated no end of times, his ability as a
leading track man for the University of
Washington. He has been engaged in
athletic work since 1896, although his
records in 80 and '97 were of but little
moment.
He entered the high School at Everett
in 1897, and at the next inter-scholastic
meet at Tacoma, June 4, 1898, broke
the record for the 12-pound shot put,
raising it to 40 feet, inches In the
fall of 9S he played full-back for the U.
of w. and the following year the same
position for the second eleven. In SO
he won the P. n. A championship in
the hammer throw and in 1900 in the
He has since that time won
MEDALS in all championship events with
the exception of the running broad
jump, the half and mile runs, total of
II events.
He has been prominent factor in
base ball and basket ball, playing on
both the Everett and Seattle teams.
He was with the former when they won
the Sound championship for three sea
sons. He has been a member of the q.
of w. basket ball team for two seasons,
and last year won second place in the
doubles with Caches as a side partner.
He is feet, 3 inches in height, and
weighs 175 pounds stripped. He is
twenty years old.
Trainer Van der Veer is depending
on Mr.. Thayer no little to help him out
in the weight events this season, and
he is good strong bidder for a place
on the relay team, and in the 440 and
220 yard dashes. Thayer is one of
those quiet fellows, who says little but
works hard, and after all the men of
his stamp, eventually win out. He
should be leading light in Varsity
circles for the season of 1901"

Herman Meilke, a laborer, residing in
the First ward, was Friday committed
to the Northern Hospital for Insane at
Oshkosh. Some two years ago he was
taken to that institution and spent sew
eral months there when he made his
escape and came back here. AS he ap-
peared rational he was allowed to re-
main, but of late he has taken 10 strong
drink and this caused him to again be-
come deranged. His wife and several
children are in moderate circumstances.
After a continued period of drouth
covering about two months, the spell
has at last been broken. On Tuesday
evening a drizzle commenced which
developed into a rain storm of decent
proportions and continued several
days. The downfall was of inestimable
value to this section of the country, for
had the drouth continued much longer
there would have been a failure of
crops. Unless the garden vegetable
growth is augmented soon by warmer
weather the same will be checked to
marked degree.

CHIEF MALONE.

The board of police and fire commits
sioners met last Thursday evening at
the city hall for the purpose of conduct
ing civil service examination of APP
plicants for positions on the police and
fire departments There were nine ap-
plications and it was midnight before
the meeting was concluded.
There were two applicants for the
position of chief of police, ThOs Ma
lone and G. f. DeVoe; four for patrol
men, Jos Braun, Frank Oviatt, JAS.
Kennedy and Ed. Baerwald, while three
wished to be put on the fire department.
These were W. j. Lilieqvest, Otto Bin
zer and Frank Genrich.
At the close of the examination the
board reviewed the standings of each
and found that they had all passed sat
isfactorily with the exception of Frank
Oviatt, who was disqualified for the
reason that he had only been resident
of the city two and one-half years,
whereas the law requires a three years
residence to make the applicant eligi-
BILE. On Friday afternoon the board
filed the list with the city clerk, and
also sent a list to the mayor
On Saturday Mayor Marchetti APP
pointed ThoS. Malone as chief of po-
lice, and Monday he commenced his
duties.
The appointment meets with general
satisfaction Mr. Malone, during his
two years service as sheriff of the
county, made a good officer and gained
much experience that viii be beneficial
to him in dealing with those who do
not travel the path of rectitude He is
popular, and while not over oficiOUs,
will keep those under him in strict dis
cipline.

1T VISITED MERRILL.

The automobile of w H. Mylrea Wis
tied Merrill Sunday and made itself east
ly visible upon the main streets of the
city. When Mr.. Mylrea first captured
the animal it was very lawless and per-
sisted in jumping into curbstones, trees,
fences, telephone posts, barns, other
buildings and other additional fixtures
too numerous to mention. Sunday when
the owner had it in charge it behaved
itself very well and caused no terror to
those who were favored with Il ride by
