HISTORICAL.
About year ago, the question of or
ganizing a social club, and building
club house was agitated by many OF oul
leading business men, and the usual
push and energy which has so charac
terized them on SO many occasions IN
the past, was displayed and the matter
was not allowed to rest until there was
decided and rapid movement towal dis
full realization of the project. The
first preliminary meeting was held al
the offices of Ryan, Hurley q Jones, on
the 23d day of March, 1901, at which
there was large attendance. At this
meeting c. s. Curtis was chosen chair
man and e. d. Jones, secretary. There
was a general discussion anC it was the
sense of the meeting that a club be or
ganized and the chair, on motion, APP
pointed Messrs. g. B. Bird, Neal Brown
and G.. j. Winton as a committee to
prepare a suitable constitution. a
committee of five at this time was also
appointed on locat or, viz: Messrs.
Walter Alexander, benz. Heinemann,
H. G. Flieth, f. A. Gooding and M. B.
Rosenberg. The name selected on
that date was
THE WAUSAU CLUB.
On the evening of March 30th, an ad-
journed preliminary meeting was held
and at which time the constitution, sub
mitted by the committee, was adopted.
The constitution was published the
week following its adoption, in the
WAUsAU PILoT, and at this time only a
brief synopsis is necessary, viz
ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION.

ourselves together and make, sign and
acknowledge the following written

gether for the purpose of forming Cor

SMALLPOX.

There are at present three very bad
cases of smallpox in this neighbOrhood
two of which are confined at the pest
house and one in the city. VIM. Ball,
of the town of Texas, and stranger
came to the city last week from Min
oaqua where they had been working in
lumber camps and contracted the dis
ease. They were placed in the isolation
hospital, and later Fred Hoene, of 113
Seventh street, was also found to have
contracted a very malignant form of
the disease, and has been quarantined
at his home. There has been some
doubt on the part of many as to whether
the disease now prevalent really is
smallpox or not, but the physicians say
that a glance at the cases mentioned
above will remove all doubt from the
minds of the most skeptical as to the
nature of the disease. SmallpoX is
coming nearer home and we may ex-
perieuce much difficulty soon unless
the greatest care is exercised. 1t is re-
ported that the entire family of e. Stern
berg, wife and half dozen children,
who live just east of town IN the town
of Waasau, are ali down with the dis
ease. A woman was in town one day
last week peddling butter and eggs
lthui dOOi ~ tiOpAs anu W DaS RSAoCh
whom she visited disclosed the fact that
she then had light attack of the dis
ease. At six of her neighbOrs' houses
she claimed there were eases, but they
thought nothing OF it. She was told to
get out of town in a hurry or that she
would be turned over to the health Off
Ger, but it is said she kept on canvass
ing until she disposed of all her butter
aud eggs Such laXity is chargeable to
the town officers and some of them
should be held t. account for such a
condition of eareleSsneSS. In some
school districts children have attended
school when members of their family
were in bed with the disease. Careless
ness aud ignorance form bad eombi-
nation.

FASHIONS Latest Sleeves.

The latest ediot of fashion calls for a
sleeve of much larger proportions In all
outdoor garments. This is more especi-
ally noticeable in evening wraps, al
though mary Of the newer coat and
Jackets sleeves are greatly enlarged in
size, particularly from the elbow down.
II stands TO reason that the elaborate
sleeve of the smart gown or separate
waist cannot be crowded into q tight
outer sleeve without detriment. In the
February Deiineator there is an exhaus.
tive article on the making of latest sleeve
on outer garments. Numerous illustra-
tions add to the value OF the text.

IN MEMORIAM.

NJ. E. Meekins died at his home, Fish.
srman, Lancaster county, Va, in his
s5th year, January IA, 1902.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love had given;
And though the body moulders here
The soul Is safe In Heaven.
Sleep on. my darling, sleep,
In thy cold and lifeless grave,
Safe from the worlds temptations,
Safe In Heaven above.
We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest care
Our home is dark without thee.
We miss thee everywhere.
Yet again Ihope to meet thee
On that bright aud happy shore;
And In Heaven with Joy to greet thee
Where we meet to part no more.
By HIS WIFE.
