MISTAKEN FOR A DEER.

Word reached the city Sunday even
ing of an awful accident that happened
in Lincoln county, whereby man lost
his life. 1t appears that some time ago
Andrew, John and George Cement, liv
ing in the town of Marathon, this
county, purchased piece of timber
land in Lincoln county, between Mer-
rill and the Marathon county line.
They had built log shanty on ii and
were preparing to log off the timber
this winter, On Sunday last Andrew
and John went out hunting and in
their travels separated. After while
John saw what he supposed was deer
moving through the brush and raising
his rifle, fired. The supposed deer
dropped, and John running to pick it
up, was Mortified to find Andrew breath
ing his last, with bullet hole through
his body. The parents of the dead man
were at once notified and came in to
the city yesterday morning for the pur
pose of taking train for Merrill. The
body was brought home for burial.

PLEASANT RECEPTION.

The Epworth League gave a very
pleasant reception in the NJ =. church
last Friday evening for the Rev. and
Mrs. f. A. Pease. Over 800 invitations
were issued and there were very few of
the number who could not astend.
Rev. Pease has been pastor of the Nj .
Z. church for two years and at the
quarterly conference, there was an
unanimous request made that he again
be permitted to take charge of the
church in this city, this was granted at
the state conference recently held in
Milwaukee and there was great rejoic-
ing among the members and friends of
the church.
The ladies had taken great pains to
tastefully decorate the interior of the
edifice for the occasion. All seats were
removed from the centre of the room
and a number were placed in parallel
position with the wall These were
covered with tapestry carpets and made
comfortable by numerous lastly made
cushions. The platform was covered
with ferns, palms and potted plants,
while back of these were Ornamental
tons of bright colored autumn leaves.
The walls also were adorned with sprigs
of autumn foliage, evergreen, ETC., while
the chandeliers were covered with ever
green There were other decorations,
very numerous, and the whole pre-
scented very enhancing view to the
eye, and one Of great credit to the taste
full fancy of those who had charge 'of
the work.
The evening was spent in greeting
Rev. and Mrs Pease and during the
time musical program was carried
out in which Mrs. Geo Hart, Miss Lulu
james and Miss Evelyn Mccormick and
Z. NJ James took part.
Light refreshments were served by
the young ladies on the League.

1t appears that the nominee named
at the democratic convention next Sat
urday for district attorney will be Fred.
Genrich. the present incumbent The
nomination of Mr. Genrich, we be-
lieye, is equivalent to election-at least
it should be. Without any desire to
cast any reflections on those gentlemen
who have held that office in the past
and there were many of ability-we be-
lieve that we can truthfully say that
Fred has been the man long needed in
that office. Besides being man of
good legal ability he has that one quail
ity which is required above others-a
fearlessness to do as his conscience die
tates,-for as Josh Billings would say,
"The crawfish il an animul to be dis
pied" Mr. Genrich went into Office
two years ago, practically unknown in
the legal world, but today, mainly
thrcdgh his attention to the duties of
that office, Marathon county has gained
a name throughout the state as being
an unsafe place for criminals to harbor
in. Since his inception into office there
has been an even twenty sent tc the
states prison for various crimes, four
teen of whom the evidence against
them was worked up so strong that
they plead guilty rather than stand
prosecution and receive longer SEN
fences, and these fourteen instances
have saved the county great expense
in trials being waived. Two of the
cases for murder, Frank Schwantes and
Jacob Schaumberger, the district at
torney had to rely mainly on circum-
stantial evidence, yet he convicted
them. He has not drawn on the county
for cent of extra expense in prosecut-
ing criminals. Furthermore, he has
practically cleaned up all the old bills
left over from previous administrations
that Marathon county has held against
other counties. As young man who
is endeavoring, (and who has succeed
ED in giving Marathon county an hon
est and able administration of the af-
fairs of his office, we believe he should
be accorded the support of all voters,
and returned with an overwhelming
majority. When you get the right man
in the right place, keep him there.

HOLD-UPS.

Hamilton L. Empey was. at the point
of a revolver, held up and robbed Sat
urday nighrby two bad, bold robbers
so Ham says. According to Hams
story he was returning home from the
city early in the evening, and when he
had reached lonely spot near the fair
grounds he met two men, One of them
drew q revolver and pointing it at him
commanded him to throw up his hands.
He responded with alacrity notwith-
standing the fact that one arm is par
alyzed. While he was covered with the
gun the other knight of the road went
through his pockets and relieved him
of his loose change little over s..
They then released him and Ham made
tracks for home. Then his pipe went
out
This morning another hold-up was
reported to the chief of police Last
evening c. w. Kellner, student at the
Business College, was returning to his
boarding place at 517 Adams street,
and in passing along north Fifth street
man stepped out from behind lum-
Der pile in the lumber yard of the Wer-
helm Mfg Co. and with pointed revol
yer demanded the young mans money.
Kellner, with trembling hands, handed
over all the cash he had, about S12
The highwayman then released him
and he ran to his boarding place. When
attempting % call up the police by tele
phone he found that the instrument
was out of order. and too much fright
ened to venture out, the matter re-
manned unreported until this morning,
and the hold-up man had plenty of
time to escape.
If these stories are accurate it be-
hooves citizens not to carry much
money with them nights unless they
go prepared to meet and deal with
these tougbs as they should be dealt
with. There is one class that has no
terror of them and that is the news

orally from necessity go with empty
