For Selling Diseased Meats.

Henry Door and Oscar Lewis, two
white men, were tried in the mayors
court yesterday on a charge of selling
diseased meats. Lewis, it appeared, had
killed a COW which had been sick and
had peddled the beef throughout the
city. He bought the animal from Dorr,
who in turn had bought 1t from Judge
r. Y. FL. Nance. Dorr knew the animal
bad been sick, but there was no proof
that he had told Lewis of that fact,
80 the mayor dismissed Lewis and sem
fenced Dorr to fine of $40 or serve 80
days on the streets. Dorr was repre-
sented by A. Fl. Dagnall, Esq, who gave
notice of an appeal. Lewis appeared
without counsel.-Anderson Mail, Sep

"Curt Hoten tells our New Minister q
funny story"

Denman Thompson's Our New Min
lister" comes back to town for return
date on Saturday, June 20. This new
product of "The Old Homestead"
author, came to Wausau few months
ago without any particular flourish of
trumpets, and the next morning the
whole town awoke to find that this
clever author had given to the stage
better play than 1.-The Old Homestead, y
so true to life were the characters in
this production Ever since then Man
ager Cone has been besieged by hum
dreds of our best people to secure the
company for a return date, the contract
for which was closed last week, and
now it is positively announced that
Our New Minister" will be presented
on Saturday, June 20. Wausau has
quickly endorsed New York and
Boston's opinion that "Our New
Minister" is the greatest rural play
ever given to the stage. The
company is sure of an enthusiastic well
come. Theatre parties are already
being formed and this return engage
ment will in every way prove 10 be a
red letter day, for the company, the
public and the management. Seats are
on sale Friday.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-
est sale of any medicine in the civilized
world Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostitution or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system aud stop fermentation of uudi-
gested food. regulate the action Of the
liver, stimulates the nervous and organ
ic action Of the system. and that is all
they took when feeling dull or bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only need a few doses Of Green's Aug

HORRIBLE DEATH.

Shortly before the noon hour yesterday
a most shocking accident happened on
the west side by which Mrs. Peter Mel
son of lis n. Third Ave. lost hei' life,
after suffering untold agony A
kitchen stove, kerosene can and an
explosion tells the tale. There was no
one present at the time, and broken
oil can is a silent and only witness to
the catastrophe. The woman had that
morning turned out a washing and
baked bread, and when this work had
been completed had allowed the
fire to die out. A neighbor woman had
called for short chat, and at about
eleven O'Clock Mrs. Nelson stated that
she must prepare dinner for her hus-
band, who was at work in the Barker
& Stewart mill, and the visitor returned
to her home. Shortly tbcreafter Miss
Pearl Foster and mothe4, who live close
by, discovered smoke issuing from the
summer kitchen, built on the rear of
the Nelson house, and Fastening over,
found the interior all ablaze and Mrs.
Nelson lying on the floor, crying
pitiously for assistance. Miss Foster
attempted a rescue by pulling at the
woman's feet, but was unable to get
her out, and was forced to abandon the
effort, sitter she had been severely
burned about the face and hands. An
alarm of fire had previously been turned
in, and in the meantime the fire depart
ment arrived and the fire was extin-
guished, but Mrs. Nelson was then dead.
Her body was lying near the stove,
and by some it is thought that after
the explosion she tainted from fright
and fell where she was found. 1t
that she hQd
attempted to start q fire with kerosene.
There was kindling wood in the stove
though it was merely scorched. A
stove lid was off and an empty oil can,
with its bottom blown out, was lying
on the floor. A plate of meat she had
evidently intended to fry for dinner
was on the kitchen table. During the
morning she had kept the door open,
but when neighbors came to the house
after the accident they found the door
how it came to be so is not
known. Her entire clothing had evil
IDENTIFY been saturated with oil and
nearly every yestige of wearing apparel
had been burned from her body. She
was lying face downward, in which
position she had perhaps rolled in her
agonizipg efforts to escape pain.
Little can be learned of the family
history for the husband was so daSed
after tie truth had been brought to
him that he could talk but little. 1t
was learned, however, that the woman
was born in Denmark Feb LIST, 1869,
and was therefore thirty four years and
six months old, her maiden name being
Anna Nelson. Besides her husband
she leaves three children, a girl ten
years of age, boy of eight and girl
of five. The funeral will be held to-
morrow afternoon from the home, the

A most enjoyable and charming fune-

credit can not be given the junior class
girls for the success of this occasion, as
upon them fell both the labor and the
expense incident to it, the boys having
deserted them. 1t was held at the high
school in the spacious Railways of the
first floor. At the main entrance bevy
of beautiful junior girls received their
guests; in the north hallway was seated
the high school orchestra which fur
nished delightful and inspiring music;
in the east hallway were banks offerns.
