WAUSAU BUSINESS UNlVER-
SlTY.

The Wausau Business University
closes for its summer vacation May 90.
Mr.. Davis the local manager advises us
that the school year has been very
satisfactory, especially in the character
and ability of the students secured,
forty one having graduated and num-
Der of them have completed both bust
ness and shorthand courses.
Mr.. Toland, president of the Univerg
sity and also of number of other
similar institution in this state, Mime
sofa, and Iowa, came here four years
ago and without any assistance of any
kind founded the Wausau Business
University. He promised a modern
practical and up-to-date school. How
well he has kept his promise is shown
by the fact, that nearly every student
who enrolled has secured lucrative en-
ployment. many of them holding the
most desirable positions in the city,
and many times during the past four
years, the demand for Wausau Busi-
ness University graduates has been
in excess of the supply.
Mr. Toland has certainly kept his
promise ana in addition to the advan-
tages of his school from an educational
standpoint has brought a great deal of
money to Hausau that would have
been expended elsewhere, had it not
been for the University.

NEARLY READY.

The new ST. Paul depot, at the east
of Grant street, is now about ready for
the travelling public. The depot has
been finished for some time, but to get
the walks and grounds in proper con
dition has taken time, while the sur
roundings are no where near completed
as yet, still the brick walk is laid about
the depot and clear to Franklin street,
and this will enable the depot being
opened, and Reid Goodrich, the COM
pany's very efficient agent for this city
says that event will take place in about
a week The depce now occupied by
the company is to be moved across the
track and placed just north of the store
house and will be connected with the
same by platform. The coal house,
engine house and water tank are to be
taken down and moved south to point
east of the gas house, on the east side
of the railroad track, and all about the
depot and extending from Franklin
street north to Scott street south, will
be made into handsome park, this will
give Wausau one of the handsomest de-
pots and grounds that can be found in
the state, outside of large cities, and
many of those will not be in it with the
St PauPs new depot and grounds in

IN DARKEST MARATHON.

While the laws of this state are sup
posed to be just and equitable there are
some flaws and grave ones at that; for
instance there is no law in the state
which provides severe enough punish
ment for crime the story of which we
are about to relate. While people as a
rule look upon man with leniency who
has committed an error and fell into the
clutches of the law, yet some times
there are exceptions and the bru G
mentioned IN this article is to be
despised as is leper and there should be
no mercy shown such wretch.
Jas. Chapman came to this section
many years ago and purchased farm
of 200 acres in the town of Hull. He
raised large family, sixteen children
being born to him, twelve Of whom are
now living. About two years ago his
wife died and since that time one of
his youngest daughters, Nellie, has
kept house for him. The farm on
which they lived was worth, so it is
claimed, at least $1,000 but recently
Chapman sold the place for S., ,000 and
skipped out of the country, his daugh-
ter going to Ashland A little over a
week ago son-iE-law of the old man,
VIM. Rice, of Iron Mountain, Mich,
appeared in this city in municipal court
and then the story of Chapman's foul

warrant for the arrest of the latter on
the charge of incest and told of the
delicate condition in which the girl
Nellie, was in. 1t was learned that the
old fellow had purchased ticket at
Colby for Chicago but had made in
quiries as to the route to Wilkesbarre,
Pa. Requisition papers were secured
on the governor of Pennsylvania and
deputy sheriff Chellis departed for that
state week ago. After arriving at
Wilkesbarre he 1ound that the fellow
had been there but had gone to a small
town called Jermyn in Lackawana
county where he was visiting sister.
There he was found and arrested and
brought back arriving Sunday morn
ing.
He was brought before Judge Miller
Yesterday morning for hearing, but
the case was postponed until June 4th
that witnesses might be secured to tes-
tify against him. and was admitted to
81 900 bail, which he furnished. There
is no doubt but what Chapman will be
given a good long term in the peniten-
tiary, and as he is now 64 years of age.
he perhaps will moi live to complete his
sentence. He talks of the matter freely
and acknowledges his guilt

A FEW CHANGES.

George Maxson has been engaged as
manager of the Brook and Ross Lum-
ber company's mills, lumber yards,
ETC., at Schofield. This is deserved rec
|ognition of Mr.. Maxson's ability and
long service in the employ of that com
pany, with which he has been four years
and he has been steadily with Mr.. Ross
for twelve years. Chet Werden, who
mas 0een manager for the company for
the past three or four years will go to
Arkansas to take charge of the interests
of G. j. Winton, Chas Gilbert and
others, who have, the past winter, pur-
chased large tract Of timber land
down there and recently they pur-
chased saw mill which is now in full
operation. Mr. Werden will depart
for the South about the first day of June,
accompanied by his family, and will
live in Pike City, Arkansas. All re-
gret, deeply to lose NJ. and Mrs. Wer
den, but of course cannot hope to keep
them always when better opportunities
and better conditions await them in
new fields.
Mr.. Maxson will enter into his new
duties on June lst and will at that time
move his family to Schofield He has
rented his home in Wausau.

Henry J. McKay's book of poems,
will be ready for distribution in about
one week. One of the advance copies
has been received at the PILoT Office.
1t contains 10 pages, and is hand
somely bound in cloth and has tasty
and unique cover design in black and
gold. This little volume contains the
best of Mr. McKay's efforts for the past
eight years and what he has done
along this line has been during his
leisure moments and for his own pleas
ure True, many who have known his
ability as a writer of poetry, have inn
portuned him to write upon one thing
or another of local nature and many
of such have found their way into the
city papers, but most all of the poems
are to be seen for the first time in his
book now about to be issued The
poems are very interesting and win
prove so, especially, to the residents of
Wausau, and to those who have ever
made their homes here, and they
demonstrate Mr.. Mckay to be pos
sessed of genius as writer and one
whose fame will spread as time ad-
vances. Many of Mr. McKay's effusions
have been published throughout the
land, in tie country press as well as the

SCARCITY OF BRICK.

There is so much doing" at present
in the building line that brick manu-
faeturers in this section find it impossi-
BILE to fill orders Notwithstanding they
had a big stock on hand last fall at close
of business. With the passing of win
ter, this stock was all contracted for
and sold before the spring manufac-
ture had begun and though nearly
every manufacturer has since been
working to his fullest capacity there is
still great shortage 1t is but few
weeks ago since an outside contractor
came here to do some sewer laying and
though he employed Wausau men and
desired to use Wausau material when
it came time to select his brick for the
construction of man holes and, catch
basins he found he could not buy a
brick and he was forced to buy from
Kaukauna manufacturers, and pay a
freight tariff The same conditions
have prevailed at certain other times
previous to this year but never to so
marked degree

When Prof H. n Birge, director of
the Wisconsin geological and natural
history survey wrote to Senator Quarles
urging him to take up with the di-
rector of geological survey the question
of further topographic surveys in this
state during the coming summer we
believe he was blazing the way which
will result in a greater knowledge on
the part of the people in general as to
the formation in this state. He espec-
tally recommended that such a survey
be made in Marathon county, to take
in that portion in and about Wausau
which would incidentally include Rit
hill. There are very few sections Of
the state that present greater field fol-

To give il better idea of the nature OF
the work the PILoT again publishes the
J preface given in the work, VIZ:
This book of poems is the result OF
several years of Intermittent glimpses
at the wonders and beauties of nature,
lying at our own doors, and of the
strivings of the spirit within the writer
as he felt their influence upon his
thought and life Wausau is truly a
city beautiful for situation, with chain
of blue coated hills surrounding it,
while down through the broad valley
in which it lies, the sparkling waters
of the pretty Wisconsin river flow, cut
ting the city IN twain, and reaching
their climax of beauty at Big Bull Falls.
Southwark the river still winds its way,
tapping the forest fringe at the bases
of Rib and Mosinee hills, and receiving
into its heaving bosom the Big Rib and
Eau Claire rivers. Beauty is to be
found everywhere, and the hand of the
Creator has truly traced the beautiful
upon our hills and in our valleys.
In the busy years of pioneer settle
ment, there was little time for poetical
inspiration, and it was left to the pen
of a later generation to describe the
scenes which remain in ones memory
as pleasing remembrances. The author
hopes that his efforts may now quicken
others to more deeply appreciate our
beautiful surroundings.
