W M. BAUCH.

William Bauch, after being confined
for about week to the home of his
daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs.
Albert Sternke, corner of Second and
Grant streets, died last evening at
about 7;15. Early last summer Mr..
Baueh was kicked in the chest by a
horse and since July he has been unwell.
Sunday, Nov. p, he suffered stroke of
paralysis and since then had been in
very precarious condition. Last even
ing he suffered another stroke and
from this he did not rally
Mr.. Bauch was born in Fenschen,
province of Hanover, Germany, Dec 8,
1843, and therefore lacked four days of
being sixty years of age. He was mar
ried in Zelle, Hanover, in 1879, aud
two years later, with his wife, set sail
for the United States. They came to
Lacrosse where they lived two years
and then removed to Wausau in 1888,
and this city has been their home ever
since. While four children were born

Mrs. Albert Sternke.
Since coming to Wausau, Mr. Bauch
has followed his trade of upholstering,
and has in the past been engaged in the
retail furniture business A few sea-
sons ago he also engaged in the lumber
business, but this not proving profit
able, he gave it up Mr. Bauch was
numbered as true friend by large
circle of acquaintance. He was honor
able in all his dealings-npright and
fair with everyone-and friendship he
considered a sacred bond of unity be-
tween men. He has extended financial
aid to rnany a public enterprise, and
was good citizen,
Besides his wife and daughter men
toned above, he is survived by three
brothers, Charles aud Fred, of Lacrosse,
and Henry, of Butternut, and these are
expected here tomorrow to attend the
funeral.
There will be no services at the home,
but the body will be removed to St.
PauPs church Thursday morning, and
at l:30 p m. the obsequies will be per-
formed. The Sons of Herman and the
Krauken Verein, of which deceased was
member will attend in body.

A CITIZENS CLUB.

A meeting was called Friday evening
at the law offices of Kreutzer, Bird &
Rosenberg for the purpose of taking
steps toward organizing citizens club,
which has been agitated for several
weeks. The plans and purposes of this
club briefly stated are as follows: 1t
is proposed to organize club similar
to ones in other cities of the state,
whose membership shall be cosmo-
politan, that is, made up of business
and professional men, laborers and
anyone who wishes to join, though the
membership may be limited in numbers
for a time until a suitable and com
modious place of meeting can be
secured. 1t will be the object to meet
at least once month, perhaps.at din
ner, and there by an exchange of ideas
bring forth suggestions for any move
that will tend to the up-building of the
city, or that will rebound to the city's
interest. Such clubs in other cities, it
is said, have done much good for the
nOl1lC COW no. anu dh VI Va
this kind ought to accomplish some
thing in Wausau. For instance If
men of capital are looking FOR site for
the location Of some manufacturing
enterprise, citizens club, working in
unity, as it must to be successful can
bring more force to bear in securing
such enterprise than can city council
where there is more or less friction, or
citizens working privately.
At the meeting Friday evening John
Ringle was made temporary chairman
and M. G. Ewing secretary. BENZ.
Heinemann, e. d. Jones, NJ B. Rosen-
berry, A. l.. Kreutzer, Karl Mathie and
others in short talks gave their views on
the matter, with suggestions as to plan
of organizing. After a full discussion
the chair appointed the following
committee on organization John
Manson, r. L. Powers, NJ b. Rosen-
berry, Karl Mathie and B. Hermann.
This committee is to- formulate a plan
of organization and to report at a meet
ing which will probably be held at
the club house of the Wausau club some
evening this week.

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

On Monday, Nov. %, Miss Bohrer
visited the State Normal school at
Winona, of which Dr. Millspaugh,
formerly city superintendent of Salt
Lake City, is now president.
The work of practice teachers was
especially noted.
Arithmetics in the lower primary
grades has been wholly displaced by
work in sense training, gymnastics,
and manual training, all directed to
cultivating the various activities of
mind and body. In the normal depart
ment the opening exercises consisted of
the singing of one religious g, theSon
chanting of the Lords prayer, and two
numbers by soloist from the city.
Glasses in psychology, literature, and
methods, were observed.
On Tuesday the Buffalo Co. Training
school was visited The building itself
is one of which the little city of Alma
may well be proud. 1t stands upon
high ground with prospect of miles
and miles of territory up and down the
Mississippi river. Inside, the building
is beautifully finished in hardwood,
with bright and sunny rooms overlook
ing the river. In regard to books, book
shelves, piano, etc., the equipment is
first class. The students number about
forty-two, and nearly all appear to be
of foreign extraction, rugged in phys
ique, industrious in habits, with much
the same troubles to overcome as in
Marathon county.
On Wednesday, many grades in Min
neapolis were seen. All teaching in
those schools seemed to be directed to
the one end of making the child more
active. 1t appears that the pendulum
is swinging far in the direction of
dramatic superfciality. Children will
soon be able to use every power of the
mind and body except the one essential
power of thought. Figuratively speak
ing, plain articles of diet are no longer
palatable, for Thanksgiving dinners al
ready chewed and digested are daily
served up to them to such an extent as
to glut the appetites, stop the circula.
ton and paralyze the digestive tract.

Toe TRUE.

What Northern Wisconsin, needs now
among other things, is more such public
spirited enterprises as that of the John
r. Davis Lumber company of Philips.
The men at the head of this enterprise
and business are not mere "skinners'
or the virgin wealth and resources OF
the country but they conceive it their
duty and good business policy to do
something for the community where
they have prospered. Putting this policy
into operation the John Z. Davis Lum-
Der company is striving constantly to
build up and advance the material inter
ests of Price county by inducing settlers
to come in and by advertising aud ex-
plotting the resources of the county
Il doubtless is true that the Davis COM
pany is furthering its own interests by
pursuing the policy it does. at the same
time i must result in great advantage to
the entire county On for more such
companies among the lumber barons

THANKSGIVING DAY NOTES.
How tse Poor Were Remembered by
OR Generous People.

The poor of Wausau were remem.
bered in very nice way on Thanksgiv-
ing. The poor commissioner, F. Z.
Schneider, stood ready and willing to
| distribute all that might be furnished
him for the poor About all the meat
markets gave him chickens and many
OF the grocery stores gave him gro
ceries. Ore person gave him a barrel
of apples, another some preserves, all
of which helped wonderfully in making
/ up the baskets for distribution. Mr..
Schneider's greatest source of supply,
however, came from the citizens.
There were S45 in cash handed into the
Pilot Office to be expended. This was
all put into chickens, turkeys, meats
and apples, and which were purchased
under the direction of Mr.. Schneider
and distributed by himself and assist
ants. To square ourselves with those
who so generously donated for the
poor, we publish the following

some of its burdens

held in the Baptist church in which the
English churches united. An appro-
pirate sermon was delivered by the

 Tackled a Railroad.

Copyright, 1908, by L. T. Richards.l R HAD been down to the general E store at the Corners" with the old DOssum hunter of Tennessee
 to buy powder and tobacco, and among the 1dlers at the store was a pert young man who had a good deal to say about himself On our way home and after long period of silence old Zeb suddenly exclaimed:
 "Drat that young Perkins! He's got the big head the worst way, and Pm hopfn' that suthin' comes along to give him a shock. Most young men seem to want to make fools of themselves"
 'sBut they get over 1t after awhile" replied.
 ttYe-es, if they don't die first. I had a powerful pert son who didn't live to git over his braggin' days. Sometimes l feel bad about it, and, ag'in, think it happened for the best''
 asked him for the yarn, and after walking along for a quarter of mile he began:
 ''One spring, when my son Joe was eighteen y'ars old, he got the big head mighty bad. seen it comin' on him and knowed thar'd be trubble, and the ole woman she seen it comin' and said to me: ....
 "'Zeb, our son Joe is gtttin' ready to make a fule of hisself, and I want you to keep an eye on him. He imagines he's as big as a mounting, and he feels that he kin lick ten men all to once.'
 When the big head gifts hold of a young man it takes a powerful dose of medicine to cure it. Joe kept growth wuss and wuss. He got lazy, and he got to braggin' and blowin',, and from the way he looked at me now and then outer the corner of his eye I knowed he was achin' to tackle me. Just to let him know that his ole pop was on deck I grabbed him one day and throwed him sky high over the fence, and he was mo humble arter that.
 Tt didn't cure him, however. He went around rubbin' ag'fn folks and steppin' high, and one day he comes home and sez to me:
 "Pop, did yo' ever tackle a rail- roadT
 $ No, sonny, never did. I've tao kled men and bars and wildcats and circuses, but not railroad
 "They've got one over in the valley, and I think kin whop 1t in about five minutes.'
