WILL ORGANIZE.

A number of those interested in base
bah, met Friday evening at the Office of
E. G. Kretlow for the purpose of dis
cussing the advisability of organizing
a base ball team in this city for next
year, which shall have a membership in
the Wisconsin state league, which is
gradually shaping itself into organiza-
ton. After different ones had expressed
their views on the subject twas decided
to organize at once, and temporary
Organization was effected by electing
the following officers;
President-T. G. Ryan.
Secretary-E g. Kretlow.
A letter was read from j. I. Powers,
who is the promoter of the state league,
in which he said thathe would endeavor
to come here early in January and
assist local enthusiasts in completing
details. An effort will be made to sell
about $1,000 of stock by disposing of
200 tickets at $40 each. With this fund
to start with it is thought that good
players can be secured and with the
sale of single admissions. grand stand
tickets and several side issues the
team can be maintained throughout
the season without running into debt.

pERPLExlNG CASE.

Poor Commissioner Frank Schneidei
spent Friday at Birnamwood for the
purpose of making an investigation ol
the case of Mrs. Alice Hunter and
three children who are being supported
by that village at the expense of Mara.
thon county. Recently Shawano Co
presented bill to this city for ovel
$500 for the family's keeping, which
was allowed and paid. When Mr.,
Schneider visited Birnamwood, Friday,
he asked the poor commissioner to lei
him look over the books and ascertain
what amount has been charged up
against this city since the former bill
was paid. The Birnamwood officer
had been indulging too freely in corn
juice, was ugly and refused to show
him the books. He then appealed to
the village president who informed the
poor commissioner that his books
were public property and subject to
the inspection of anyone. Mr.. Schnei-
der ascertained that the city of Wausau
is owing the village of Birnamwood up
to date the sum of $l25 "A. He also
went over the books and checked up
the items on the bill which was
previously allowed and found great
discrepancies. According to the fr-
ures made BY Mr.. Schneider, when
compared With the bill filed with the
city clerk III the fall, someone at
Birnamwood has been emulating some
of Chicago's aldermen who are known
as 'grafters." 1t is quite likely that a
thorough investigation of the matter
will be made and it may be that some
overcharges will be deducted from the
next bill.
great many years. Her husband, Chas.
Hunter, was employed in the freight
depot of the st. Paul Co. and about
four years ago died, after few months
illness with consumption. At the time
of his death his family was left desti-
tute, although he had been earning
good wages all the time. For time
the widow tried to support herself by
keeping boarders, but finally was forced
to ask aid of the city. She moved to
Birnamwood and sought and received
aid at the expense of this city. She
has lived in Birnamwood long enough
to gain residence in Shawano county,
vet the officials of that county don't
want to support her and, of course, this
city would like to be freed from the OBJ
legation. 1t is quite likely that steps
will be taken to either move her back
here or else limit the amount of aid ex-
tended her.

Or. TURBlN PRAISES W0MEN'S
F0RTlTUDE.

DR.. Louis M. Turbin, the able special
list of Chicago, who has favored our
citizens with regular monthly visit
for the past IA years, is loud in his
praise of women's bravery in uncom-
plaininglY suffering the pangs which
they are so often called upon to endure,
but he is earnest in his endeavor to i'm
press all women that it is unnecessary
for them to suffer if they viii obtain the
relief and cure he can now afford them.
The doctor says that "the average
husband does not mean to be Indifferent
to his wife's sufferings, but the fact is,
he is so ignorant of the functions Of the
delicate system as to make him appear
So" 1t is an injustice to herself for a
woman to hide her suGerings from
others. 1t is her duty to seek advice
from the best specialistin the treatment
of women's diseases at once. If she
does, her advantage is three-fold, she
will be freed from pain, can attend
strictly to her duties, and she viii es-
cape the clutches of probably fatal
disease, which is caused by neglect.
To this Mrs. DR., l., Dorman, of Windsor,
Wis, one of the many who have been
restored to health by DIR. Turbin's treat
ment, will testify.
There are two reasons why women
with any form of female weakness or
disease should see DIR. Turbin without
delay. He has demonstrated that he is
worthy the implicit confidence of all
patients and he is the peer of specialists
in the treatment of all women's disease.
DR.. Turbin will be in Wausau, Tuesday,
Dec. eth, at the Bells House.

Grip Quickly Knocked Out.

"Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and my
self contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst kind
of la grippe with all its miserable symp-
toms, says Mr.. j. s. Egleston of Maple
Landing, Iowa. Knees and joints
aching, muscles sore, head stopped up,
eyes and nose running, with alternate
spells of chills and fever. We began
using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
aiding the same with dose of Chamber
lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, and
by its liberal use soon completely
knocked out the grip" These Tablets
promote a healthy action of the bowels,
liver and kidneys which is always
beneficial when the system is congested
by cold or attack of the grip. For
sale by all druggists.

SET FIRE TO CAR.

A tramp giving bis name as John
Wood and his place of residence ST
Louis. was on Wednesday bound over
to appear in circuit court on the charge
of breaking car seal. Tuesday evening
while Henry Hack, an employe of the
st. Paul Ry. Co., was placing warning
lights on the switch targets in the yards
of the company and sealing cars, the
tramp walked up to one of the cars he
had just sealed and broke the seal.
Then Hack entered protest. The
tramp said that unless he was allowed
to enter the car he would set fire to one
of them. He went away but q short
time after re-appeared and informed
Hack that car was on fire, indicating
the location by pointing. The latter
investigated but found no fire and a
few minutes later Capt. German ar
rested the fellow. An hour after,
yard men, in passing along the track,
discovered smoke issuing from a car
and locomotive was coupled to it and
the car hauled to the water tank, where
it was drenched with water and the
flames smOthered. A fire had been
built in one corner, but scanty supply
of combustible material being used it
had been slow in communicating with
the walls of the car.
Wood, when brought into court next
morning, admitted breaking the car
seal but denied setting the car on fire.
He was bound over to circuit court and
in lieu of furnishing bail in the sum of
$500 will reside in Jail until his trial.
The mans rambling conversation
would denote that he has bees in his
bonnet.

A meeting was held recently at the
harness shop of Nj. H. Duncan to ar
range program of entertainment for
those who will visit here during the
meeting of the Wisconsin State Dairy
mems association in February. Only
preliminary matters were talked over,
but the prevailing opinion was that a
banquet ought to be included in the
program. Another meeting will be
called for in the near future at which
more definite arrangements will be
completed. r. B. Johns, principal OF
the Agricultural school, will make an
exhibit at convention headquarters of
ten different soils found in the county
with plants growing therefrom.
A private house located in the
southern part CT the city, which bas

of women ofquestionable character was
investigated by the police on Tuesday
evening last. Complaint was made by
a neighbor and the police entered the
house but found nothing on which
to base an action, and after giving the
inmates warning to conduct them
selves better in the future, departed
without making any arrests. There
are several places in town it is said, that
bear watching, and a warm time is
promised them as soon as sufficient evi-
dence can be collected which will war
rant the exercise of the law. 1t is also
said that the proprietors of some saloons
on the outskirts of town have a surprise
in store for them one Of these days.

DEMERE & HANIMOND'S
weekly stock Letter.

There was general strength in the
stock market, although in the late
dealings there was some moderate re-
actions. There was no special new de-
velopments to stimulate the market
except the government report on cot
ton, which naturally directed atten-
ton to the stocks of the different
Southern roads, and we therefore feel,
after due consideration of this cotton
report, to be very bullish on Seaboard
Air Line, Louisville and Nashville, At
lantic Coast Line, Illinois Central
Texas and Pacific, Central of Georgia
incomes and Southern Railway stock
In the industrial group there has been
displayed considerable strength in the
Steel issues. Rubber Goods, and Vir-
ginia- Carolina Chemical, and we look
for much higher prices in these stocks,
especially in the latter The local
traction group rules steady and firm,
with tendency toward higher prices
next week. We can't help but feel that
the bull side of the market is the one
to adhere to. and we learn that Chi
cago and Great Western is to be adj
vanced next week, and along with
this stock we advise the purchase of
Southern Railroad shares and Virginia.
Carolina Chemical stock. The none
tary situation has been agitating the
minds of some of the financial people
but it was very gratifying to see an
increase in the surplus reserve and a
decrease in the loan items in Satur-
days bank statement, therefore we do
not feel that there is to be any trou-
BILE on this score. From all appear
ances it looks as if there is going to
be a great deal of money seeking in
vestment between now and the early
part of next year.
