THlRTIETH ANNIVERSARY.

The thirtiefh anniversary of the
organization of Wausau Lodge No. 215,
/ o. o. F., was celebrated Friday even
ing last at which time the newly elected
officers were publicly installed The
Installation ceremonies were witnessed
by a large gathering outside of the lodge
members. At the opening of the lodge
Carl Mueller, one of the charter mem
bers, made a few remarks incident to
the. organization and history of the
lodge Mr. Mueller was presented with
beautiful regalia in token of the
members appreciation of his long ser
vice in the order For a few minutes
Mr.. Mueller was so surprised that he
was at loss For words of thanks. but
overcoming his emotion he feelingly
thanked the lodge fol the gift in short
but Wei worded speech Dancing
followed the ceremonies for which
Geier's orchestra furnished music, and
during the evening the ladies served
supper.
The local lodge was organized in
December, 1873, with five charter mem
bers, Carl H. Mueller, JOS McEwen,
Aug. Kickbuch, I. E. Snow, Sam. c.
Davis, the two former being the only
ones living today The lodge was in
stituted by John Stumpf, of Stevens
Point, who was then District Deputy
Grand Master. For years it was hard
struggle and the lodge was slow ia
growth There was not enough money
in the treasury to warrant renting
very pretensious hall, nor was one
needed, for the members were few in
number At different times the old
Noiseaux building, the Kickbusch hall,
and the old Neu building on Second
street served as l. o. o f halls. From
the latter place the society moved to its
present quarters on Washington street,
which has been its home for :. great
many years. After its early struggles
the lodge began to gain life, and has
grown steadily ever since, and at the
present time has la members in good
standing, which includes the best class
of citizens of the town. Carl Mueller
was the first Noble Grand of the lodge
and has been an Odd Fellow the
greater portion of his life, having been
initiated into the mysteries of Odd
Fellowship forty two years ago, joining
Mensard Lodge No Il at Houghton,
Mich. Those who have served as Noble
Grand since the organization of the
lodge are as follows, those marked with
star being now deceased;

The hall now used for lodge rooms,
while it serves its purpore, is hardly in
keeping with the size and growth of the
Wausau lodge. For such occasions as
that Of Friday evening the rooms are
not commodious enough, and the fact
strengthens the advocacy of a large
hall being built in the city which snail
be owned aud used jointly by several
societies.

Throsh BY Electric ljrht.

During the threshing season the far
mer has plenty of work on his hands
and he considers that when the thresh.
ing machine arrives at his farm that
he must accomplish as much work as
possible. For that reason they work
until sun down and many times sever
al hours afterwards providing there is
moon.
The farmers about Zumbrota this
year find that they can do away with
this hurry and work all day and all
night during the threshing season, as
Andrew Ness, one of the progressive
threshing machine owners of that vi
cinity, hit upon a plan that would &C.
complish this. He recently attached a
twenty-five light electric dynamo to
his steam thresher and in this way
provided enough light about the ma
chine to thresh all night if necessary.
He has sixteen lights arranged about
the thresher and engine, others on the
feeder and several are located where
the grain is weighed and dumped.
This is the first time in the history
of Minnesota that threshing has been
done by electric light t-Fairbault

the FARMERS INSTITUTES
Two Days Sessions Will be Held ut

nounoOd Later.

1t has been definitely decided that
the farmers institute to be held at New
London this winter will consist of two
days sessions, as we'll as the one to be
held at Willmar. 1t was at first
planned to make the New London
institute of one days duration only,
but so strong requests were received
by the management to make the same
two days that they have been granted.
A special feature of the New London
meeting will be the presence of State
Entomologist Wsshburn, who will
discuss the question of the wheat pests,
chinch bugs and Hessisn fly. His
department is quite Independent of
Supt. Gregg's corps of instructors
ordinarily, but in this instance he will
be present and ready to give those pres
ent the benefit of his knowledge. His
talks are illustrated. There is no
doubt that both the institutes at Will
mar and New London will be largely
attended. Supt. Gregg has promised
to make the sessions especially inter-
esting to the ladies in the lire OF

Loses An Index FINGER.

J. M. Spicer was the victim of q
painful accident last Wednesday,
which resulted in the loss of the index
finger of his right hand. At the time
of the accident he was experimenting
some work near the cottage at Green
Lake. He was assisting q workman
who was putting up planks along the
stone wall to protect against high wa
ter, Mr.. spicer holding post while
the man was driving it down with q
heavy sledge. Thinking the man had
finished, Mr.. Spicer slid. his his hand
to the top of the post just as the sledge
came down again, crushing the feger
80 badly that amputstion was neces-
sary. The operation was performed
by Dr.. Mclaughlin. At this writing
Mr.. Spicer is doing quite nicely. He
does not lay any blame upon the man
for the accident. Z u

Apparently without Financial Backing.

The papers in the counties of Kandi-
yohi, Stearns and Todd are now dis
cussing the prospects of securing q
new north and south railroad, the line
to be built from Kansas City to War
road by the Continental Railway Co.
of Des Moines, Iowa. This is the
same company which wished to build
line through Douglas county and
for whom q survey was made to Glen
wood at the expense of our business
men last fall. The company is appar-
emily without financial backing, and
seeks to build q line of railroad at
the expense of the people of the differ
ent townships and counties through
which it will pass. The proposition
did not meet with favor at this place
and 1t now seems that the company
are endeavoring to promote their pro-
ject through the above named counties.
The company proposes to issue to the
townships q certain amount of stock
to Offset the amount for which the
township bonds itself. The auditors
In the several counties through which
the road proposes to pass, have been
requested to furnish the company with
a list of the real and personal valua-
tion OF all the towns and townships in
their respective counties.

Loft for Black Bav,

Peter Freeberg left on Wednesday
for the Black Bay mining country,
where he goes as representative of
the company here to assist in the
work of installing the new diamond
drill at the mine. At special meet.
ing of the directors held the previous
evening, Mr.. Freeberg was selected
for this work on account of his former
experience in the interests of the mine,
as he is quite familiar with all the du-
ties which would devolve upon him.
It was also at this meeting that def
mite decision was reached regarding
the installation of the new drill. The
stockholders will now anxiously await
further developments as the result of
installing the new machinery.

Helped Out Of . Quandary.

"A marriage was recorded in the
clerk of courts records here yester-
day In which the principals were P.
NJ. Anderson Of Fulton county, Illi-
nnois, and Miss Olga A, Amundson, of
Burbank. By mistake of the parties
the license was obtained in Stearns
county and to lesalize matters the
marriage record was transcribed into
this county. The couple was united
IN marriage last Sunday at Crow
River. The law provides that licenses
must be issued In the county in which
the bride resides, which was not done
In this case It seems that the clerk
OF Stearns county has q deputy at
Belgrade and the parties claim that
they were advised by the deputy that
1t did not matter where the license
was issued, and this brought on the
difficulty. The officiating clergyman
took it for granted that the license
had been procured in the legal way
and accordingly performed the cere-
mony. Later, in looking up the mat
ter, 1t was found th at the requirements
OF the law in this respect had not been
strictly adhered to and the minister
supplemented his returns of the mar
risge by enclosing a note to Clerk of
Court Ramsett asking for further ad-
vice s.i upon the matter. Our genial clerk
5of court has forwarded the necessary
reply and at the same time attended to
the proper recording in the ever pop
ular book in his Office, and no further
uneasiness is felt by any of the parties
concerned.
