DEER IN THE CITY.

Three deer, large buck and two
buck fawns came over the hill west of
town Thanksgiving day and entering
the pine grove near Mrs Mary Poor S
residence, stood debating for a time
which way to go when thelc debate was
interrupted by small boys, who threw
sticks and stones at Them The old
fellow started off toward the noitfl
making the snow fly at every ;amp
Another retraced It's steps over the hill
while the third starred east aud crossed
the river in the vicinity of the Barker &
Stewart mill. 1t passed the residence
of P. o. Means and that gentleman
gave pursuit The animal ran up to
Second street and along that street to
the Braatz block, where it turned into
an alley. 1t attempted to come out of
the alley back of the post office, but
was intercepted by James Kennedy,
the policeman. 1t then attempted to
jump through window in the rear of
the Leader store but fell backward and
was caught by Kennedy, who had been
reinforced by Messrs. Means, Mike
Schoeneman and Herman Marquardt.
1t gave these men quite tussle, but
when finally subdued, a rope was placed
around its neck and it was led over to
the Healy livery stable and placed in a
box stall. 1t was later decided to make
j. b. Thomas, superintendent of the
county asylum, present of the deer,

THE BURGLAR.

The central character presented in
''The Burglar" is such novel one, and
is possessed of so much two-sidedness,
at the same time so seemingly natural,
that the audience marvel at the authors
conception. A burglar on midnight
exploit is rather pleasantly surprised at
the appearance of a little tot who
amuseS him in very astonishing way all
the while he is preparing his plunder.
Before his departure from the house he
discovers in Edith his own child, whose
mother he has so cruelty wronged and
deserted. The scene of recognition is
one calculated to evoke no end of inter-
est and to keep the audience absorbed
until the climax of the play During the
unfolding of the plot comedy vein of
genteel quality prevails. 1t may thus
be said with impunity that "The Burg
lar'' lacks no elements necessary to
acceptance by all classes of theatre
goers. Opera House, Friday, Dec. 4,
Prices %, So and so cents.

COLLECTIONS EASY.

During the past few bays number
of collectors representing the large
companies dealing in farm implements
have visited Wausau for the purpose of
making collections on farm machinery,
sold during the past year. A repre-
sentative of this paper has conversed
with number of these gentlemen, and
has ELECTED the following information:
The companies generally feel safe in
making sales in Marathon county. As
a rule, few farmers make full payment
for machinery purchased, the COM
panies relying upon their honesty
Some companies have sold on the in
stallment plan, others on a cash basis
at the end of certain period, but in
variably the collectors find no trouble
in securing their money. Farmers liv-
ing in counties north of here are slower
pay, and the counties in southern Wis
consin are not so good as those in the
central belt. The reason for this is ex-
planned thus: North of us the farms
al . VI oO llUblO ChdO Ilc 1dI
mer has little to sell. In the southern
part of the state the farmer relies on
his agricultural and dairy products
alone, while in this section farming is
diversified, that is, the farmer has agri-
cultural, dairy, wood and other pro-
ducts to SELL In fact he is never idle
and is always turning something into
cash Among the southern counties,
these agents say, the ones where dairy
interests are the most developed are
the most prosperous, the creameries
and cheese factories pay cash monthly
for milk and there is more ready
money. These agents also assert that
the business in this state next year will
all be under one concern. The five
greatest farm implement manufac Gurers
have formed trust and are now under
one management, and it is likely may
have one local agent in each town.

and since then the relations between
them, it appears, has been strained
Schuttenberg, it is said, has always
been good citizen as measured by the
Pike Lake standard of morality. The
brothers have been quarrelsome and
gloried in making life burden to their
brother-in-law. Fracases have occurred
from time to time in which pitch forks
have played leading part.
AS to the merits of the case. that is
for a court and jury TO decide, and
there are many features not stated in
this article that will be brought out at
the trial. Schuttenberg was arraigned
in court yesterday afternoon on the
charge of murder. He plead not guilty
and his examination was fixed for next
Saturday morning at ten o'clock, the
defendant being remanded to jail with
out bail.

The president is 40 years old and
his life has been full Of action and
achievement He has placed himself
in the position Of the foremost man Of
the nation by his own fosccfnl ability

interested in the welfare of the west
and every measure tending to its de-
yelopment has met with his approval
Mr.. Roosevelt never forgets that,
being president, he is none the less a
man and never allows the dignity Of
his high official position to be a
barrier between him and his people.
He Is man Of marvelously wide
information and and knows his country
more thoroughly probably, than any
other Of our presidents In decisive
thought aud determined action, he is
unsurpassed among the men Of the
world. He is making place in
United States history for himself and
future generations will recognize him
as one Of our greatest men.
