Besides these eight children were
taken to the school for dependent
children at Sparta.
One of the striking things perceptible
in the above figures, is the large num-
Der of insane, which demonstrates that
insanity is on the increase. Were it not
for the foresight of the county board
some years ago in building county in
sane asylum, this county would soon go
bankrupt in paying for the attendance
of its insane, for large percentage of
those sent to the state institution each
year never recover.
There has been but one escape from
the Jail. Frank O. Hare, whom you will
see was re-captured and is now in the
states prison list. Mr.. Marquardt re.
tires from his Office leaving a good re-
cord as a public official, and can rest on
his laure.s. During his two years In
Office he has fed and housed more pris-
oners than did any sheriff since the
county was organized, and though they
undoubtedly were not satisfied with
having their liberty taken from them
none have made any complaint of
harsh or unfair treatment at the sheriff s
hands.

FARMERS SHOVEL SNOW.

The following rules for rural delivery
routes have been sent to postmasters by
A. w Meachem, general supt. of the
free delivery system:
First The department looks to the
patrons of the Rural Free Delivery
service who are receiving the benefits
of the service to use their utmost per-
sonaI endeavors and also exert their
influence with the road supervisors or
with those officials who are responsible
for the condition of the highways, to
the end that the roads Travelled by
the rural carriers may be always kept
open and in such passable shape that
the se sice can be regularly and pune
tually performed.
Second. Should the regularity of
the service be needlessly destroyed as
the I, suit of inattention and lack of
care bestowed on highways, the per-
manent withdrawal of the delivery will
very likely result.
"Third Rural carriers are required
to serve their routes regularly at al
seasons of the year and in every kind of
weather when it can be done without
seriously imperiling their lives or en-
dangering their conveyances or the
United States mail which is in their
custody.
Fourth. Patrons should clear away
the snow drifts so that carriers can
drive up 10 and reach boxes from their
vehicles without dismounting.
Fifth. 1t is not part of the
carriers duty to break out the road
after severe storm.
Sixth Rural carries are expected
to energetically try to serve their
routes even though the conditions may
be extremely adverse and any undue
lack of zeal on their part should be
promptly brought to the attention of
this office for such action as the merits
of the case require.

APPARENT lNFELlClTY.

Friday. Henry Belize. deputy sheriff
read 10 Mrs. Martha Luitpold a sum
mons for her to appear on a certain
date to defend an action III which her
husband, Laurence Lnitpold, has
brought suit for divorce. Beilke had
no sooner finished reading the sum
mons than sheriff Marquardt stepped
in and arrested the woman on the
charge of adultery. He also caused the
arrest of one, Geo. F. Young, with
whom it is alleged she has been living
for some time. The people are all resi-
dents of Antigo and according to the
husbands story the woman has been
guilty of many wrong things. She has
in her possession notes amounting to
ST ,35l 81 belonging To him which she is
trying to convert to her own use. He
alleges that she is not over burdened
with purity of character and that he
has taken her back to his household on
several occasions after she had been
living with other men.
1t is said that for two months past
Mrs. Luitpold and Yonng have 5een
living as man and wife in rooms on 5
Third Ave, and when their wherea-
bouts was discovered by the wros red
husband he caused their arrest lhe
defendents were brought before Judge
Miller Friday afternoon and the exam
ination was postponed until Jan. 18th,
each being required to furnish bonds in
the sum of $400 for their appearance.
which they were unable to do. Before
they were taken to jail the woman had
the nerve to ask her husband to bail
her out of Jail which request of course
was met with contempt. The couple
have daughter twelve years of age,
whom Luitpold alleges has been an OBJ
ject of spite by the woman, and has
suffered great abuse at her hands, and
he also claims that she has a large yo-
cabulary of obscene and vile words at
her command which she has not been
slow in showcring en- him quite fire.

BACK FROM COLORADO.

F. j. Parke, special timber agent of
the government, and wife arrived in the
city Wednesday from Durango Col.
after an absence of five months from
the city Mr. and Mrs. Parke left Wau-
sau last August, and since that time
they have been in Colorado and New
Mexico, where Mr.. Parke- was detailed
by che government on special business
While there he unearthed gigantic
steal of timber from the government
and after securing evidence, aflidayits
and estimates sent in the claim to
Washington, it being one of the largest
on record, amounting to nearly
100 0o0,000 feet 1t appears that the
Denver Rio Grande R'y. Co., at the time
the road was built. secured from the
government the right to use what tim
Der was needed in the construction of
the road, for bridges, etc, and was also
allowed to afterward make repairs
from the government lands This was
done as an incentive to build the road
that that section might be o. sne. up
to settlement. The railroad company
made contracts with mill men for the
cutting of timber, but it appears the
latter or both parties to the deal were
not honest, for where five logs were cut
four of them went into the stock piles
Of the mill owners This work has
been going on for years and it seems
strange was not discovered until
recently. BY the proceedings begun
by Mr.. Parke, fourteen sawmills are
tied up, and the railroad company is
also estopped from further use of
government timber.
Mr. Parke does rot like that country
so well as he does Wisconsin The air
is very dry and one experiences diff
Guilty in breathing upon first going
there, and for a time a person will
suffer bleeding at the nose almost daily.
In Durango, he says, there are hot
sulphur springs that eclipse the Hot
Springs of Arkansas One can see the
vapor arising from these springs at a
distance of miles, and you can also
detect the odor of sulphur for a great
distance. Any hard substance thrown
into one of these springs and allowed
to remain for short time, will assume
the appearance of marble after it has
dried, but the water has no effect upon
piece of fresh meat. Hundreds of
people come there annually for their
health, as the baths are invaluable for
rheumatism. Rheumatics will come
there so helpless that they have to be
carried and after taking the baths the
disease entirely leaves them. The busi-
ness men of town represent every state
in the union and are men who have
been cured of rheumatism and settled
there and gone into business. Mr. and
Mrs Parke are pleased to return to
Wausau and expect to remain here IN
til spring at least.

LIBRARY ASSURED.

In response to request for aid in
building a free public library building
for Wausau. Andrew Carnegie, the null
ti-millionaire wrote to the Hin. Neal
Brown recently aud submitted several
questions the most difficult one of which
to answer was IN relation to what
amount of money would be raised an
nually for the support Of such an insti-
tutiol. A meeting was held Friday
afternoon for the purpose Of formulate
ing plans for the securing of aid, and
it was attended by the library board
and some of the citya officials Mr.
Brown read the letter he had received,
and then the matter was Submitted to
those pre- ent for their sentiment of
procedure.
The city, since the Wausau library
was first, started has been appropr'ating
on an average of ST 200 yearly,
but his amount ran be in
creased and assurances were given
that it would be absolutely safe
10 say that from S2,oU0 10 Us OOO could
be raised This would mean donation
from Mr. earn gle of $685. or $50, 600,
for in making his donations to cities he
gives ten times the amount raised by its
citizens This sum goes toward the
building of the structure alone and tne
city must put in the heating apparatus,
furniture, books, etc. The Women's
club of this city now has in its treasury
nearly 81, 600 for a site which it has
raised by entertainments, etc. This
sum is hardly adequate for, a site should
be located centrally and land comes
high 10 the business section of town
The ladies have been letting the matter
rest for some time but if library build-
ing is assured to Wausau, its people
will come forward no doubt with suffici-.
ent donations to enable the purchasing
OF suitable ground to erect it on. MIR.
Brown was instructed to write Mr. Car
negie informing him of the sum that
can be raised aud it is quite likely that
the latter will give the desired aid

LOST HOPES REVIVED.

Several of our subscribers dropped in
and paid up their subscriptions this
week. as sort of Christmas present
We can assure them that it is duly APP
preciated. -Minocqua Times
The Times can consider itself more
fortunate than other papers in this
section, 1t is rare that such things
happen. A great many years ago a
former editor of the Merrill News had
as subscriber man who in those days
imbibed considerable booze" but
whom we are pleased 10 state is today
au example of sobriety. He was what is
termed periodical drinker, and the
periods came so frequently that his life
was one long string of pnnctuati
marks. Whenever he would meet this
editor he would insist on paying a
years subscription, and although he
was 'to the good" in the latter
the editor could, by no method of
reasoning, persuade him into keeping
his money. When the proprietor of
the News sold out and went East th $
man was paid up for nearly fifteen
years. in advance. We tried for years,
until the effort became a forlorn
hope, to ascertain what brand of
whisety this subscriber drank, that we
could give out samples to our delin-
quents whenever the occasion necessi-
tated. But the hope of finding it l as
been like the deceptive will' 'o-the-wisp
that has brought to us disappointments
and feelings akin to those of the char
acter in the Arabian Nights tales who
forgot the magic word, sesame, when
the door that stood between him and
riches could be opened by the mere
utterance of the word 1t may be that
there is some of this same kind of "bug
juice in Minocqua, and it might be well
for brother newspaper men to investi-
