ANOTHER RURAL ROUTE.

The farmers to the east of the city ex-
pect within short time to be put on a
rural mail route. Recently a petition
was circulated, which received many
signers, asking that such a move be
made. The route, as proposed, will
run from this city east as far as Sunset
2. O., then east one mile and perhaps
north to the Curran farm, then one
mile west and back to the city by way
of Nutteryille, covering a distance of
"a miles. AS this is a thickly settled
portion of the country these farmers
deem it to be prudent act of the gov
eminent to give them this service.
Blanks for petitions are given out at
the post office, and many farmers in
other portions of the county are avail
ing themselves of the opportunity, and
are circulating petitions for rural de-
lN cry. A rural route agent is expect
ed to arrive in the city within short
time.
Postmaster Trevitt has received no.
tice that there will shortly visit the city
an inspector, who will investigate the
matter as to whether the carrier force
of Wausau should be increased or not.
1t has been found that with the vast in
crease in recent years in amount of
mail handled that with the present force
the people do not get as good mail SER
vice as they deserve. In some portions
of the town there is but one delivery a
day, which can not be remedied with
out an increase in the carrier force, so
that the wisdom of making an increase
is at once made apparent.

FIFTY YEARS AGO.

Fifty years ago yesterday the first
excursion train was run over the first 90
miles of railroad ever constructed in
this state. The road was then. known
as the Milwaukee & Mississippi R'y.,
but which later developed into the G.
NJ. & st p. system. The road was for
maliy opened with grand excursion
from the little city of Milwaukee TO the
little village of Prairieyille in Wauke-
sha county, it was big excursion as
well as big event for that day, and
for that generation, most of whom have
passed to their reward.
The promoters fought among them
selves in the directory for supremacy
over the control Of those twenty miles
of up hill, and down hill, and crooked
line of railroad. 1t is among the early
day traditions of the company, and well
authenticated, too, that when the eX-
cursion train pulled into the village of
Prairieville on that bright February
day in 1851, the directors repaired to a
wayside inn and there held their annual
meeting, divided into factions, and for
number of years there was not much
system to the organization. Atthis time
the population of the whole state was
but 305, 900, little more than the present
number of inhabitants in the city of
Milwaukee alone.
The fifty years that have elapsed since
that day have worked wonders in rail
road building in Wisconsin. The 90
miles of poorly built and poorly
equipped road of that time has grown
to such proportions that this state now
has upwards of 5000 miles of shining
steel rails girting its surface, and it is
impossible to 60 any where in the state
and get 30 miles away from a railroad
Yesterday was big day for the st.
Paul people, and on many branches of
the road whistles of each and every
locomotive was blown to remind people
of the event

RIVERSIDE HOSPITAL.

We wish to make it known to the cit
liens of Wausau and vicinity that the
Riverside Hospital has been thoroughly
repaired and renovated, so that it is in
every way in excellent condition. Re-
cent damage by fire proved very
great loss in many ways, but it is hoped
that all this will be compensated for by
better equipment for hospital business
now. In the improved arrangements
there has been provided a speciol de-
partment for women and children, so
that cases of all classes will be accepted
here. We have accommodations for 36
patients, and all physicians shall share
equally the privileges Of this institution
up to the limits of our capacity. New
nurses have been employed with espec-
ial view to capability and trustworthi-
ness, and upon that score we can guar
antee satisfaction.
To the clergy cordial invitation is
extended to freely visit and administer
to their sick and feel welcome at this
hospital Ev.-Luth Hospital Assn,

BASE BALL CIRCUIT.
One is About to be Organized Which
Will Include This City.

At meeting held last evening, if one
was to Judge by the attendance and the
interest and enthusiasm taken, we
would say that it looks very favorable
that Wausau will have base ball team
this coming summer, and first class
one at that. Although the meeting had
not been very we'll advertised there was
goodly attendance at the Crystal Cafe
where it was held, and when it was
called to order there was representa-
ton of business and profe ssional men,
as well as others.
The first order of business was the
election of a temporary chairman and
secretary, and f. G. Kretlow was select
ed to fill the first Office and E. D. Under
wood the latter Then those present
entered into a discussion as to plans to
be promulgated for the instituting Of a
base ball circuit with Wausau repre-
sented. A committee on organization
and finance was appointed which was
composed of the following gentlemen !:
T. G.. Ryan, chairman; Henry Smith,
Henry McCrossen, Herb Manson, Sam
Livingston, Phillip Stadler, E. d. Under
wood and E. &. Kretlow
1t was proposed that theVmembers of
this committee meet at the office of the
chairman, who was not present, and
confer with him as to the manner of
procedure in organizing. The"proposi-
ton to sell enough season tickets to
raise a sufficient sum to meet the neces-
sary expense on the start was voted
down, and opinion prevailed that the
better plan would be to solicit dona-
tions. 1t was also agreed that only
players who work will be taken on the
team, and those who exist on a cigar
cite and beer diet, and who will not
labor, are not wanted.
Correspondence will be opened with
Merrill, Tomahawk, Marshfield, Grand
Rapids, Stevens Point, Amigo and
Rhinelander, and an endeavor made to
form a circuit of these cities, with a
schedule of games, and there will also
be open dates on which other state
teams can be secured.
With a good team there is no reason
why base ball games should not meet
with liberal enough patronage to sus-
tain a club. This has been done in past
wears.

Sunday appeared to be day of fires.
The department after getting back to
the engine house from the Kick
busch fire were called out during
the forenoon by a chimney blaze on
Forest street Later, shortly before six
o'clock. another alarm was sent in from
"behind the creek" This was the home
of Philip SandOn where sparks falling
from a stove caused small blaze which
did not do much damage before being
quenched.
Thursday and Friday Mrs. John
YOules entertained her friends at her
home on Main street atan old fashioned
quilting bee, such as you will find in
the old New England states, and an

ladies enjoy themselves immensely in
the company of this much esteemed
lady, and the New England dinners

prevail. The purpose of these bees is a
leave-taking for Mrs. Nick Golden, who
will shortly depart for her California
home.
Saturday night the bus team of
Green Bros. ran away and succeeded
in smashing up the bus to some extent.
Harve Babcock, the driver, had went
down to meet the o'clock train on the
Northwestern road, and had left the
team backed up to the platform. This
has usually been a quiet span of horses
and he did not think it needed watch
ing. The west side fire truck was
being driven back to the engine house
for more hose to be used at the Kick
busch fire, which was then in progress,
and in crossing the slough bridge
frightened Green Bros team. The
horses ran away but were caught be-
fore they had ran very far. 1t was
fortunate that no one was in the bus at
| the time

HOW TO POLISH WINDOWS.

The action Of the sun, moisture and
the carbOnic acid in the air on the soda
or potash in the glass produces an
opaqueness or more less pronounced. TO
remove this, wet the glass with diluted
hydrOchlOric acid, and after a few min
utes 90 over the glass with powdered
whiting. Pour the acid slowly into the
cold water, using four ounces of the
acid to twelve ounces Of water lone
pint and a half. Polish with channels
or soft paper. 1t must be remembered
that this acid will attack metals and
shaold not be allowed to touch them,
nor should the bottle be left open an in
slant longer than necessary, as the
fumes are very destructive March

NEAL BROWN SURPRISED.

We all have our birthdays, therefore
the fact that Neal Brown had one yes
terday did not create any disturbance
only among few of his neighbors who
had learned of it and after mature de-
liberation had decided to drop in and
spend a couple of hours with him and
assist in properly celebrating the event.
As Mrs Brown is absent and there was
no certainty of finding Neal'' at home,
Mr. and Mrs j. n. Manson were dep
utized to make an engagementto spend
the evening with him, which they did.
At eight o'clock, fourteen ladies and
gentlemen met at G. s. Gilbert's and in
few moments thereafter were knock
ing at the gun room" door (the only
place where a light could be seem for
admittance. Frank Kelly was in the
leao and carried large heart-shaped
birthday cake, on which was placed
one candle. Each gentlemen carried a
basket of eatables and the ladies carried
gifts of various kinds. Neal was
speeches. (the first time ne was ever
known to be in such a cOndition) with
surprise, but only for a moment and
then he entered into the spirit of the
; occasion and made all very much at
home. A season was spent in present
ing gifts, and as there was something
of especial interest in each one, which
Mr.. Brown was not slow to appreciate,
it proved to be a very amusing feature
of the evening. A delightful lunch was
set down to at ten O'Clock and an hour
later ali departed for their homes. b@v-
ing highly enjoyed the occasion and
were only sorry that Neal could not
have half dozen birthdays every year
/ instead Of one.
