MISSION WORK.

County Supt. of schools John +.
Lamont and r. b. Johns, principal of
the agricultural school, started out last
Friday for the purpose of conducting
an active campaign in the interests of
the above named school They will
hold meetings Friday and Saturday
evenings in the school houses and town
halls of the different towns, and will
give illustrated lectures, the illustra-
tions being made by stereopticon Ian
tern. Farming will be discussed in its
various phases by Mr.. Johns, who will
convince the rural population that he
understands the subject thoroughly,
while Mr.. Lamont will supplement Mr..
Johns talk with discussion of the re-
suits accomplished by this school. Sew
eral such meetings have already been
held and have had the result of work
ing up an interest in the communities
these gentlemen have visited, and it is
thought this method will have the de-
sired effect of increasing the schools
enrolment A schedule of the meet
ings from Friday right on, is as follows;

WERE WELL PLEASED.

Fourteen boys from the Agricultural
school came over from Wausau last Fri
day with Prot Johns and Prof. Froem-
ing. They came for the purpose of look
ing over the Helendale farm buildings
and judging the Helendale herd, which,
by the way, will be an annual feature
The boys judged six classes,
and then the various advantageous feat
ures in the construction of the farm
buildings were shown them. Prof
Froeming came over especially to look
over the buildings as the Helendale farm
is noted all over the state for sanitary
and dlabor-saving construction. The boys
were a studious and earnest lot of young
men and seem very much taken up with
their work.--Athens Record.

WHY NOT TRY2

On account of the numerous strikes
in the larger cities the past year many
of the great manufacturers have de-
cided to move their plants to the small
er towns, where union labor is not so
strong or so well organized. 1t is said
that fifty of these manufacturers in the
city of Chicago alone are casting about
for new locations, and some of them
are already moving or have taken the
preparatory steps toward moving In
this respect a number of Wisconsin
towns have been favored, and repre-
sentatives of these concerns are at the
present time visiting the cities of this
state that have been recommended, and
several inquiries have come to Wausau.
In most instances these concerns, are
people of great wealth, who ask no
bonuses or anything else except good
locations, ample railroad facilities and
a reasonable rate of taxation. Some of
them employ thousands of men the
year around and are a great benefit to
any clGY. Oome OF lGe eastern cities OF
the state have been favored With the
location of some of these enterprises,
and it seems reasonable that with a
little cooperation on the part of our
citizens that Wausau might obtain at
least one. without throwing out any in
ducements in the way of land grants,
ETC., to burden our people. as was the
experience some years ago, when we
got several worthless concerGs on our
hands. White some of the lake Michi-
gan shore cities are nearer to the mark
cts than we are, we have timber and
other resources that they do not have,
besides good shipping facilities and ex-
cellent water power. The effort might
be worth trial.

Following this report there was .
general discussion rs to many examples
of misuse of the telephone thai have
come to the notice of the officers. In
some of the saloons thar keep open all
night there have been persons of a
questionable state of sobriety taken it
upon themselves to cause eannoya2ce
to the operators, and in SOME instances
they have not used the choicest of
lnguage. 1t was the opinion of all
present that these abuses must cease,
and motion was put TO cause an extra
charge of rental for phones in use
in such places as keep open Throughout
the night This motion was afterward
withdrawn aud the matter left TO the
the discretion of the directors.
The subject of charging monthly rate
for extension bells and phones was dis
cussed but 10 action was taken.

ANNUAL MASQUERADE.

The annual masquerade given by the

RUSSIAN REPORT OF Fight
CAV JAPANESE LOST FIVE THOU.
eAND IN THE BATTLE OF
TATCHEKlAO.

Laoyang, July 30.-Further details
Of the fighting below Tatchekiao July
q and "a indicate that the Japanese
losses may reach 5000 men. The
Russian losses are officially stated to
be about 700. The Russian front was
much extended. The Japanese con-
centrated their attack against the
Russian left, but were repeatedly re-
pulsed. The Russians made several
brilliant bayonet charges and for the
first time the Russian artillery was
used in high angle fire from behind Q
hill, the fire being directed by tele'
phone from an eminence and attain
Ing great precision. The Russians did
not retire until it was established that
the japanese had seven divisions. The
Russian forces are concentrated at
Haicheng and probably will not retire
further. 1t is expected that the JAP
anese will now advance against the
left flank of the Russian Southern
Army.

Young Man Who Took Muriatic Acid
Last Saturday Night Died at Hos
pital This Morning.
After lingering since Saturday night
last and suffering much pain, Nick En-
lein, the young fellow who took muir.
attic acid with suicidal intent died at
the hospital this morning. Enlein
took the poison about eleven o'clock
Saturday night, the solution taken be.
ing a diluted muriatic acid that was
used to clean bathtubs in the barber
shop where he worked. He was soon
discovered to have taken poison and
relief measures taken almost immedi'
ately, but the strong acid had burned
his throat and stomach badly. He
was taken to the hospital, where he
has fingered since. For a day or two
he was improving and hopes we're ex'
pressed for his recovery, but he took
a change for the worse yesterday and
died about nine o'clock this morning.
Enlein was a Hungarian, and about
% years of age. A brother living in
Richardton was telegraphed this morn
ing and is expected on the afternoon
train to take charge of the remains.

Double the Firebreaks.

Minot Reporter: Year after year
the Reporter has warned the good
farmers and homesteaders of this coun-
ty against destruction of property, and
perhaps lives, in consequence of
prairie fires. This year seems to be
more favorable to disastrous prairie
fires than any that has preceded it for
a number of years. The grass is ex-
ceptionally high on the uplands as
we'll as in the valley and when it be-
comes dry, should it catch on fire. the
prairie would be nothing more nor
less than a seething furnace. For
this reason the ordinary fire break will
not suffice this year. The fire break
of last year should be doubled this
year and, wherever practicable, grain
should be stacked on plowed ground.
The old adage thas a stitch in time
will save nine might be applicable in
this case.

RUSSIAN POSITION UNTENABLE
Reasons Why the Entire Russian Army May
Be Compelled to Retreat Further
NOrthWard

that n1s present position Is unJenao1e.
The temper of the soldiers at the
front over these continued retrograde
movements is shown by the state
ments of two Russian correspondents
with General Herschelmann, who re-
port in identical language that 1.-The
soldiers are tired of retreating," and
the statement of another Russian cor
respondent who says "our men retired
from Tatchekiao with heavy hearts"
Still another correspondent says:
I'VE are all wonderstruck at the
strategy and genius of General Ku-
roki. Everything he plans is executed
with clockwork regularity. although
he has no railroad and must march
his men over mountain roads,"
Perhaps the rain, which again seems
to have begun, this time in earnest,
may save General Kuropatkin's posi-
ton"

Price Of Meat Advancing.
Although the managers of the pack
ing companies claim to have enough
men working 80 that their production
is almost normal in several Of the
plants the price Of meat continues to
rise in the local markets. This is
largely due to the fact that the prod

most wholly sent to outside points.
The meat served to Chicago custom
ers nearly all comes from the indie.
pendent plants.
Figures obtained ut the five largest
independent packinghouses in the
yards where there is no strike in
progress show that these plants have
more than doubled their force of men
and their output of meat. The men
are working in three shifts of eight
hours each and the killing and pre-.
pairing of meat is continued day and
night.

MOB LAW IN CONTROL.
Miners Leader Discusses Conditions
at Cripple Creek.

Denver, July 3O.--rhe News prints
the following from an interview with
President Charles FL. Meyer of the
Western Federation of Miners, who is
here to confer with officials of the or
ganization:
1T is time to call out the troops
again to protect our men in the Grip
pie Creek district. There Is no legal
authority there now. The sheriff s
office cannot control things. A mob
controls and our men are being SUBJ
jected to whitecappings, whippings
and every sort of brutal treatment. II
the governor had wanted to be fair he
would have ended martial law, with
drawn the troops and left, say, fifty
soldiers there to deal impartially with
Ill violators of the law. Instead of
that he withdrew all the troops and
left the commission and mob in con-
troll, leaving our helpless men to the
mercy of that mob. He simply en-
dorses the mob, asks us to call off the
strike and will not allow our men to
60 back. To call the strike off would
be to acknowledge that we were
wrong; that the treatment we had re-
ceived was right and that we got what
was due u.s." :
