WELL ATTENDED,.

The concert given Friday evening at
the opera house under the aus
piceS of the Wausau Music House
was attended by one of the largest
audiences that has yet assembled
at that place of amusement. Invita-
tons to the number of the seating
capacity of the house were issued and
nearly every one was accepted. S n
Bridge, the senior member of the firm
appeared on the stage before the CON
cert and made few remarks, in which
he said that in his younger days he had
directed great many musical enter
prises, but with his advanced age must
now trust to younger people, and there
fore had chosen George Andrews to
conduct the concert of that evening
The program was then carried out in
the following order:
My Noble Knights ................ Meyerbeer
Miss Ruby Wilson.
Mr.. George Andrews.

Miss Maria P. Templeton.

Once more it was demonstrated that
Wausau is the home of more than ordin-
airy musical talent, and the people pres
ent were all well pleased with the enter
tainment, as was evidenced by the lib
eral encores. 70 give each one who
took part the proper writeup due them
would take up more space than we
today have ct hand, and so we will
simply say that the concert was a sue
cess IN every particular, and Mr.. Bridge
is worthy of thanks for getting up such
a creditable entertainment,

 The array occurred at the woman's home on North Union Street. Love used a razor and deep gashes on the woman's shoulders, neck. hands and body indicate a thorough use of the keen blade.

He Who Shot Zanzibar's Queen With Load of Salt and Pepper.

Washington, Sept. 1.-Judge W. George Reilly. a well known character about town whose familiar haunts were on newspaper row, died here to- day at the Washington Asylum Hos pital from the effects of a heat stroke suffered some time ago. Railing from Virginia he at various times held public office there and twice he was United States Consul to places in Venezuela and also at one time was consul to Zanzibar, to which offices he was appointed by Republican Presi- dents. One of the stories told of him but not authenticated was that when filling the position of consul to Zanzi- bar. he had shot the queen of the is- land with salt and pepper because she persisted In bathing in the garb of nature in front of the American con- sulate each afternoon.
 It was said he was recalled for this act, but the State Department records show that he resigned the Zanzibar consulate after holding 1t a year be- cause of the death of member of his family.

WHERE TREES GROW FAST.
California Tree Springs Up Twenty Feet l
 Eighteen MnnfhA-

Eighteen Months.
 A tree which grew nearly twenty feet in a year and half has just gone from the experimental station in Santa Monica canon to the worlds fair to show what Californ- ia can do when in a lurry for a place in the shade, says the Los Angeles Times.
 It holds the champion long distance tree sprinting record of the United States.
 It is a variety of eucalyptus. a small grove of these trees was planted on a shag- Ry cliff back of the experimental station, where 1t seemed as though no tree could grow at all But the rate at which they have shot up under skillful attention almost staRRers belief.
 When this particular tree was about a year and a half old 1t measured four inches in diameter They had to pull 1t up for fear 1t would break the Santa Monica speed ordinance.
 In order to get 1t safely back to the fair the whole tree was carefully packed in moss- es and soaked cloths.
 After It's ragtime career under Abbot Kinney and others the experimental sta tion Is now a successful blooming garden.
 One of the interesting features of the work is importing trees from foreign coun- tries and trying them in California soil and climatf, conditions. First one soil and then another. is tried until a congenial one is found
 One of the additions to the California tree family thus made is sono of the most beautiful treees in the world--a jacaranda covered with immense lilac flowers The whole makes an effect of bewilderinR beau ty.

 MT. Sparks recently moved his fam lily from Columbus, Ga, to Montgom- cry. The little fellow with several playmates yesterday afternoon had i'm provised a slide by stretching a smooth plank from the roof of the house to the ground. He had several times suc- cessfully made the slide and the chill dren were delighted with the fun.
 Thoroughly enjoying the sport. the little fellow hurried to the top of the plank and began his descent. He sud- denly lost his balance and fell to the ground. As he did so. he struck a sharp piece of wood. which penetrated his left thigh, passing through the member.
 Neighbors rushed to the assistance Of the child and a surgeon was hurriedly sunDmoned. He pronounced the wound painful but not serious. He is resting easily,
