Barney Guenther was arrested Fri
day upon complaint of John Manson
charged with violating the city ordi-
nance relating to the compulsory con
struetion of fire proof buildings within
the fire limits. Guenther is building a
livery stable at the corner of Second
and Jefferson streets and the trouble
arose over the recent action of the
council in granting him the right to
put up brick veneered building, an
action Mr.. Manson is fighting for the
reason that as an insurance agent he is
making an effort to get lower rate of
insurance for Wausau people, which
effort is hampered by just such
work as has been stated above.
MIR Guenther was to have had hear
ing before Justice jones yesterday but
postponement was taken to next
Monday, but it is quite likely that the
matter will be dropped where it now is
for the reason that Mr. Guenther de-
sires to have no trouble over the mat
ter and will put up a solid brick build

State Senator j. H Stout, of Menomi-
ME, was in the city last week He came
here for two purposes To view our
training, agricultural and domestic
science school and to consult Ex-State
Supt L. d. Harvey, who was then con-
Quoting an institute here MIR. Harvey
has for some time advocated the drop
ping of district schools in townships,
where practicable, and providing in
their place one large school where all
the basic elements of n common school
education may be taught. and in addi-
ton to be supplied with manual train
ing and domestic science departments.
The idea has appealed to Senator Stout,
who has already done much for the PEG
pie of his section, educationally and
otherwise, and he has taken the matter
up He is now at work constructing a
large building, suitable for such s.
school, in town near Menominie.
When the same has been completed the
| senator viii provide teams to haul the
children to and from school If at the
end of certain period parents are dis
satisfied with the experiment they may
return their children TO the district
schools, but the chances for such dis
satisfaction are very slim. 1t was rels-
tive 10 this school that he came here to
talk with Mr. Harvey.
