Mr.. and Mrs John Melaney, residing
at $40 Hamilton street, are mourning
the loss of their daughter, Kathryn,
who died Saturday evening at eight
O'Clock of chronic heart trouble, with
which she had been afflicted for three

girl. The funeral services were held at

''son and | have been hauling wheat to
mill nigh forty years. Now there are
two roads that lead to the MILL ones
the valley and t'other takes over the
hill. Some times ! go one, some times
the other, and never yet, my friends
has the miller asked which road | took,
but he always asks, is your wheat
good.-Ex.
Frank Tittnlan, representing the
Menominee River Sugar Co., of Men
ominee, Mich, was ia this section a few
days last week closing contracts with
farmers who had agreed to plant part
of their farms to sugar beetS this season.
He was assisted by John Lamont and
VIM Chellis. The two latter gentle
men were appointed committee by
the Wausau Mems club, to solicit adj
ditional acreage and succeeded in get
ting a number of acres pledged. They
found that most every farmer they
visited was willing to try the crop, but
that most of them had already sown
their land TO other crops. Had they
started out a few weeks earlier they
feel assured that they would have had
no trouble in interesting great many
farmers, and if the crops of those who
will this year raise beets turns out prof
liable, there ought to be no trouble
next season in getting several hundreds
of acres pledged. Seed was sent here
some days ago, and is being sown now.
Chicokero Aleeze Nathoo, Hindoo
fortune teller, was arrested at Madison
last week and plead guilty to statu-
! tory offense and was fined 800 and
l
revelations brought forth by the arrest
place the daughters of five respectable
families in very unenviable light, and
may have the moral effect of making
Madison fathers and husbands exercise
more care in the future in discouraging
| the patronage bestowed upon these
| fortune telling vendors by their fami-
lies. The city of Milwaukee makes it
an offense for anyone to tell fortunes
! for money within the citys confines,
| and it should be an offense in any city.
| As usual thing these fakirs are black
legs of the worst kind, and should be
driven out of any community. Nathoo
| spent one summer on farm, near An
| tigo, few years ago, and then came to
Wausau. He fingered around here for
several days but the prospects for suck
ers looking slim. be departed for other
| fields Fortune tellers, clairyoyants,
palmists and others of their cult are a
class that should be Stunned by every
respectable man or woman.
