The annual supper and bazaar given
by the ladies of the Presbyterian
society, Friday afternoon and evening,
was great success in every way. The
parlors OF the church were filed from
the hour of.op.ning until the closing,
and those who had the supper in charge
were taxed to the utmost.
Geo. Schwenkel, Anton Setlmeir and
Henry STANCE, the three men arrested
at the instance of Detective Jeffery, of
the Northwestern road, for wrecking
the windows and stove of the Mcmillan
depot, plead guilty to the charge in
Justice Clarke's court last Tuesday
evening. They were each fined s16and
costs, or total of s91 go. They were
put off train for not paying their fare
and out of revenge broke up things in
the depot. They win probably pay
fare or walk hereafter. Each could
have Travelled thousand miles for what
it cost e square matters.
At business meeting of Co. g, held
last Tuesday evening, it was voted to
hereafter impose fine of 81 90 upon
all absentees from drill unless such
members can give reasonable excuse
for being absent. A member missing
four consecutive drills will be court
martialed and given a dishonorable
discharge from the company. At this
meeting Capt. H. j. Abraham. First
Lieutenant Elmer Lucas and Second
Lieutenant Otto Abraham were pre-
sented by the company members with
new sabers. Under the new army reg
ulations governing militia companies
commissioned officers must carry sabres
instead of the old swords that have
heretofore been used
A great many loads of rock are being
received each day at present by the city
and dumped on the crusher grounds on
Clarke's island. The rock is weighed on
the scales located north of the North
western depot where John Ward can be
found at all times to record the weight
of each load. About 1000 cords will be
purchased this winter in anticipation of
having long season of matchmaking
next year. Nearly every year the city
has been hampered in its street work by
not having enough rock. This coming
year it is proposed to change the order
of things and operate the crusher con-
tinually through the summer
Dr. Turbin, the eminent German
specialist and surgeon, will be at the
Bells House, December 9th.
The gentlemen from Wausau who at
tended the International Live Stock
show at Chicago last week speak in very
high terms of the display. 1t was the
best attended show ever held in Chi
cago and the exhibits exceeded those of
other years. There was cattle on exhi-
bition from every section of this coun-
try and from many foreign countries
and many stock fanciers from European
countries were present. Some of the
Wausau parties bid on cattle but prices
went up to the skies, and they felt they
could not afford to invest. Some cattle
from the stock farm of DR.. H. A.
Lathrop, of Marshfield, were disposed
of at this sale and brought good prices.
Some of the Percheron horses of H.
Briggs of Elkhorn, shown at the Mara
thon county fair this fall, were awarded
prizes.
Frank Jadack, of Marshfeld, was
sentenced last week by Judge Fruit, of
Lacrosse, to serve three years in prison

the agent of the Blatz Brewing Co. at
Narshtield and was arrested January
Esd last. A few days previous to that
date, he met Miss Weiss in Edgar, and
representing himself as proprietor of
Thomas House at Marshfield, hired her
to work for him as domestic. When
the girl arrived at Marshfield he took
her to the Northwestern hotel and there
committed the crime. Jadack was
represented by Atty. F. E Bump, of
this city, and j. w. Cochran, of Grand
Rapids, and the prosecution was con-
Quoted by Dist. Atty. Brazeau, of Wood
