TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

Preparations for the alumni recep-
ton and banquet, Wednesday evening,
Dec 23rd, are in progress. Invitations
have been mailed to all whose address
could be obtained. 1t is hoped that
every one will help to circulate notice
Let no one stay away because an invita-
ton failed to reach him. We wish to
greet every one who has ever been a
member of the school for any consider
able time, whether a graduate or not.
A program will be presented by the
school. Remarks by others will be in
order after the repast
An anti-whispering society has been
formed which now includes the whole
school Penalties for breaking the
pledge are imposed by the order This
is an example of self government be-
coming to the school and grateful to
the teachers.
The program OF the literary society
last Friday was varied by the discussion
of two questions, one of which had been
crowded out of a former program
We were pleased to have visit from
Miss Martha Jaesehke and to shave an
account of her experience in teaching.
The school enjoyed a visit to the
Canadian exhibit and were surprised at
the perfection of grains and grasses
grown in those high ATTITUDES. The
courtesy of the gentlemanly agent, Mr..

EXTENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS.

The James Music company is just now
engaged in rearranging its store on
Scott street, and when completed
which will be in few days-it will
be one of the very handsomest stores in
Wausau. This store has been divided
with partition of red birch, and plate
glass. The design is very handsome,
some parts of the red birch being richly
carved. This was gotten out and is
being put in place by Janke d Weise.
This will give the firm piano parlor
of about "a feet square in the rear of
the store. New shelving for talking
machines and records have also been
put in, and eight new chandeliers, for
electric lights, which adds much to the
beauty of the store and gives flood of
light in the evening The entire store
is being reprinted and decorated An
unusually fine line of pianos, talking
machines, records, music and novelties
have been purchased for the holiday
trade

SOME few weeks ago, when most of
the daily papers were expecting a sud
den clash of arms between Russia and
Japan, THE PILoT ventured guess that
China contained territory enough to
satisfy the land grabbing propensities
of both And so it seems to have turned
out. Russia gets Manchuria and
Japan gets Corea. China retains
nominal sovereignty over these coun-
tries, but Russia and Japan do not care
for that. They get all they asked for.
The other powers do not like this,
but they can lump it. Russia and
Japan, together, can defy them all to
come twelve thousand miles from home,
and fight the Gar and the Mikado

LAST BIG FARM is SOLD.
Roman Catholic Bishop Buys War
ren's Park, Austin Tor $33O.OOO.

The following is taken from the Chi
cago Tribune of Dec nth, and relates
TO Andrew Warren, so well known in
our city. Mr., Warren, at one time,
owned most of the land which now
comprises the city of Wausau:
The last big farm in Chicago has
been sold and will be farm no more.
1t Is known as Warren's park, was sit
uated in Austin, and contained 1913
acres. all inside the city limits, nearly
all OF which was devoted to farming
purposes The purchaser is the Ro-
man Catholic bishop of Chicago, and
the tract may be used for the proposed
seminary for the education OF Roman
Catholic priests.
Warren's park is fenced on every
side, and extends from Adams street
south 10 the tracks of the Great West
ern railway at Taylor street, and from
Austin To Central avenues During
thirty years the land has been owned
by Andrew Warren, who has resided
alone with his dog in large farmhouse
surrounded by big elm trees in the cen
ter Of the property
Mr.. Warren, who was 80 years old
even of an occasional visitor. The
entire farm comprises $50 acres, but
only 1913 of these were purchased, the
remainder being twenty-five lots and
the railway right of way. The Elgig
and Chicago electric line and the subur-
ban line of the Consolidated Traction
company through the property.
North of the electric lines right of
way a large crop of timothy hay was
grown this year, and south of the track
corn was planted. Mr. Warren per-
sonally has not attended to the crops
during many years Instead he leases
to farmers in the neighborhood.
The transfer was recorded as from
the Warrens to the Chicago Title and
Trust company, and the consideration
was named as $780, 900 There was an
inc6mbrance of S23,000 and also a
| Superior court deere by which a trust
deed for S67 800 was foreclosed on part
of the tract. The total cash price by
the bishop was $260,000 This is the
1 largest acre transfer within the city
! limits during many years, and the deal
was made by Henry A. Knott and James
+. Hildreth of Knott, Chandler q Co

WE make a motion that the u. S.
Senate be abolished while Teddy is
president 1t must be terrible for such
"a strenuous soul IS Teddy, who is
capable of managing all the affairs of
the earth, both temporal and religious,
with one hard tied behind his back, if
we only gave him half a chance, to have
his treaties-insignificant little treaties,
affecting only such small matters as
Cuba and Panama, stolidly laid aside
by that portly body of easy going sena-
tors, and hung up for few weeks, and
then critically examined and discussed
up one side and down the other during
the long session. Too bad. The sug-
gestion of several republican papers
that the IT, 5. Senate is a nuisance is
surely worth thinking about. ON the
other hand there are a good many old
fogies in the country who are such back
numbers that they do not feel bit
worried when they see the Senate going
deliberately about important matters.
We must own up to belonging to this
class. We like these occasional evil
dences that the legislative branch of
our government is more than mere
machine to perform the will of the
executive. And at this tune, when the
house of representatives seems to re-
gard its whole duty to be to do what it
is ordered to do, we feel good deal

the number is one OF the best of the spec

article bears the stamp of abso-
lutte certainty of faet-a certainty gained
by personal examination of each of
the plats described Instead of giving
a condensed account of large number
of less important works, the editors have
wisely adopted the plan of selecting a
certain number of large industrial estab-

thorough description. Among the more
notable articles of the issue may be men
toned those on armor plate and gun
steel, structural shapes, tube making,
chain making. steel and wire making

Wall Street and Roosevelt

When the Wall street leaders were
contributing hundreds of thousands OF
dollars to defeat w. j Bryan, lepubli-
can papers found no terms too superla-
tive to be used In Praise of their patriot
ism, honesty, and sound business iudg-
ment.
Ind IL uas these men rho defeated Bryan
Now these same men are trying TO de-
feat Roosevelt, or at least it is so
claimed by republican newspapers.
These men have not changed, they
are the same men, with the same inter-
ests at heart, and if 1t be true that they
are really determined TO beat Roose-
welt, it go S without saying, as any one
must admit that they oppose him for
the very reasons thar made them oppose
Bryan
And why was that Let the republi-
can papers say why Take the Milwau-
kee Sentinel as witness. la its issue
OF yesterday it said the opposition to
Roosevelt in New York is centered in
a clique, the members of which have no
particular sympathy with the cardinal
principles of any party
How often the PMoT has described
these men in just that way,-as men
who are at heart, neither democrats
nor republicans, but are simply exploit
ers of political parties, using them as
means to serve their own selfish inter
ests. They are not afraid of platforms,
which they have found to be mere
shams, or vote catching devices They
are afraid of honest determined men.
They could not manage Bryan and
would not have him. Again the Sen
tinel says Those men are neither
statesmen nor political leaders in any
form, but they are men who are euel
ready 10 trade their influence for The assur
ance that their selfish Interests shall be sub
seryed IN defiance Of public good and tn,
lar Of the land"
This seems strange statement com
ing from leading republican paper
For although the Sentinel feels it to be
necessary to couple this statement will
further assertion, and argument tha
''It was not the Wall street influence
that elected the republican tickets il
1896 and 1900" it will find very few be
levers of that statement among the
intelligent voters of its own party. 1
what the Sentinel says is true, the aiC
furnished by Wall street to the republi
can party in 1896 and 1900 must hav,
been a case where The Street,
traded its influence for al
assurance that its selfish Interest,"
should be subserved in defiance
of public good and the law of The
land" Well, if the republican party il
going to reform itself by discardine
Wall street, the PmoT is heartily glaC
of it. That will be a glorious day fol
1.-THE country when the republican, party
drops these men, and tries to win with
out their help. The democrats dropped
them in 1900 1t viii be cold day il
Wall street when these exploiters o
political parties for personal ends wake
up and find that instead of having two
parties begging for campaign funds "a
they had in the Cleveland age, there il
no party at all that cares snap fol
their influence.

Progress Us. Prefpdfce

Rev DR. Hongau DIX, pastor OF Trim
ity church, New York. in an interview
upon a subject which seems to be caus-
ing him much trouble, viz: woman" is
reported to have said:
u am sick at heart over the women
Man used to regard women with such
reverence. When | was boy all boy
of generous spirit locked up 10 her In
these days women have come down to
our Level, they were womanly aud now
they are ceaslng to be- Mondays they
talk ike men aud do all things that men
do. If there is anything men despise it
is mannish woman. All this comes
from leaving the womanly things of life
and invading the sphere of men Woman
should never vote or be doctors, law
yersa0r ministers.
1t is safe to say that Dr. Dix is no more
sick at heart over ths women than the
women are sick at heart over such men
as he, who have fought every step in the
progress of women from learning TO
read and write to having the ballot. One
would imagine from the utterance Of
some of these men that the acme OF
all evil was doing anything like man.
Had Dr.. DIX lived century ago he
would have written as did Dir. Gregory
who was considered standard authority
at that time upon female propriety. In
his book emitted, Legacy TO My Daug6-
ters," he SAID: If you happen to have
any learning, keep it profound secret,
especially from men, who look with a
jealous, malignant eye on woman OF
cultured understanding He also said
Should you happen by nature to pos
sess arobust constitution assimilate such
| sickly delicacy as is necessary to the fe
malt; charm
In strong contrast to these utterances
of Dr. Dix we are cheered by those OF
Rev DR.. Newell Dwight Hills pastor Of
Plymouth church, Brooklyn, given at
about the same time. DR.. Hills said in
part
Women in spite of mans refusal to
give them the rights and privileges tC
which they are entitled, are today in IA;
branches of business and in instance:
showing more ability than men"
In fifty years the women will know
more than the men. They have more
time to read and study and they are inn
proving their time. Eventually they will
vote themselves and tell the men whom
to vote for. There is lesson of rebukt
in this for men"
Eventually all the universities will bt
co-educational, and the women will car
ry off all the prizes. That's what they
are afraid of in the colleges which viii
not allow women. The women study
while the young men are educating th'
calves of their legs The women are
writing our novels; the best portal
painter is woman; recently woman
took the highest possible prize in math
ematics"
Had it not been for the few generous
and noble men like Dr. Hills, who have
ever stood ready to accord to womel
equal rights and opportunities viii
themselves, 1t is doubtful if womeI
could have arisen ont of the ignoranc,
and subjected position which they occu
pied in this country no longer than TO-
years ago.
