AT THE FAIR GROUNDS.

President S. M Quaw and Secretary
l.. K Wright of the Marathon County
Agricultural society are arranging TO
make many improvements on the fair
grounds this year, and when completed
there will be no handsomer or con-
vehient grounds outside of the state
fair park in Wisconsin. Among the
improvements already fixed upon is the
building of a large stable for horses the
Dimensions of which will be 24x96
This is very badly needed to give the
necessary accommodations The grand
stand will be enlarged so feet which
will nearly double its capacity. The
Building which was first used for the
display of farmers produce and which
was later moved from the east side of
Agricultural hall to a place several
hundred feet south and arranged for
barn in which to display horses, is
going to be made into first-class house
for the display of fowls of all kinds
The main building is to receive coat
of paint and the race track will be
covered with clay and put in first-class
condition This will necessitate the
outlay of large amount of money,
but the officers and board of directors
are FIRMLY convinced that the outlay is
warranted.

AN OPEN LETTER,

CHICAGO, April %, 1903
DEAR SIR:
S. The best clothes for you are clothes
which satisfy you;" that's the way we

way whether you buy Hart, Schatfner
q Marx clothes or not; the illustrations
shows how right clothes should look.
We don't want to be too urgent that
you shall buy our clothes; they are such
clothes as you should buy for your own
sake more than for any body elses; the
advantage is mutual; the profit is as
much yours as the dealers; they're that
kind of clothes.
We make them as we'll as we know
how to make them; we have been a
good many years in the business. We
put good materials, good tailoring,
good style. good brains and experience
into them; they ought to satisfy you,
or any other sensible man; they will if
you try them.
~Seim Bros, opposite court house have

things we haven't said about them.
Yours truly,

John Fitzgerald, member Of the boiler

After placing the money in the office safe,
he went TO a restaurant for luncheon and
then set out, ostensibly, for his home,
His direction led along the waterfront on

again, and the belief Of his family was that
he might have been taken i'll and while
bending over bulkhead had fallen into
the river and been drowned.
II was the belief of some OF his friends
that he might have been robbed and then
thrown into the river, His family offered
a reward of 500 for Information about him,
and circulars giving description and with
Fitzgerald's picture were sent all over the
world.
Some dock laborers on the Freeman
street pier saw n body in the river yes
,erday and secured it. The police quickly
recognized it by the wearing apparel. An
examination of the body failed to show
any marks Of violence and the pockets
we're also intact The widow later identi-
fed the body. The funeral will take place

TO ABOLISH, RURAL ROUTES.
Hundreds Established BY Mschen to Please
Members Of CONGRESS.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The investiea-
ton made by Fourth Assistant Postmaster.
General Bristow Of the affairs Of the free
delivery division, formerly conducted by
Supt. Machen. who was summarily dis
missed and arrested on charge of bribery
just week ago. has resulted in the discov-
cry that in order to restore the service
to a proper state 1t will be necessary to
abolish one-third Of the rural free deliv-
cry routes now in operation in the Southern
States and about ne-nfth OF those estab-
lished in the Northern States
The invest CATION shows that routes have
been established without any possible
excuse save IA matter of favor to members
OF Congress. and that money appropriated
by Congress for this purpose has been e1-
pended with almost criminal extravaganza.
On many Of these routes the receipts do
not average s. a month and on others the
receipts do not begin to Justify the exist
encc of the routes.
The Southern States which will suffer
the most from the adjustment of routes
are South Carolina. Georgia, Tennessee.
Mississippi and Alabama In the North.
Maine. Vermont and New Hampshire will
he deprived of about one fifth of the routes
now in operation. Other Northern and
Eastern States will lose routes. but in
smaller proportion. But few changes will
be made in New York State.
Postmaster-General Payne aaid this
afternoon that no action would he taken
to reduce the number of rural routes until
full test has been made of each individual
case and the results noted. Then, what
ever routes are found to he unwarranted
will be discontinued. At present. be de-
clined to make an estimate az to the prob
able number Of these routes.
