ages is new issue which requires de-
cision by jury; but we think that
gross damages are simply equivalent OF
annual damages, which are to be ascer-
tain by the same, mode and upon the
same facts.
1t is argued that the provision which
authorizes the introduction of the COM
missionerS' report in evidence. before
the jury. and making it conclusive I'M
less misconduct, partiality or unfaith-
fulness is shown. deprives the trial of
the character of a common law jury
trial. This is true; but while the COM
missioners' report is competent evil
dence. It is something more. 1t is the
finding of tribunal selected as re-
Quired by law, whose formal statement
of their conclusions of fact is decisive
of the rights of the parties, until it's
effect is overcome by being impeached
by evidence. The authorized re-trial Of
the cause by jury is statutory pro-
ceeding designed to ensure the decision
of an impartial tribunal and it secures
the constitutional rights of the COM
pla inant. The ruling of the court is
correct.

A RECORD SEASON.

The city's matchmaking crew ceased
operations for the season on Saturday.
A Northwestern fiat car was taken to
the west side for the purpose of hauling
the road roller across the bridge but
while the roller was being run up onto
the car the timbers gave way and it
was some time before the roller was ex-
tricated from the wreckage. The close
of this season marks the most success
full one ever experienced in the matter
of building permanent streets for the
city, and the work done this year will
exceed that of any other season by
nearly double the amount of macadam
laid. In the first place the council last
winter provided for the purchasing of
1000 cords of rock, which it was
thought would be sufficient to meet the
needs for the past summer. While
that amount helped greatly in keeping
the stone crusher in continual opera
ton still it was not sufficient and 500
cords of additional rock was bought
and more would have been consumed
had it been abtainable when most
needed. The crusher will probable be
closed down tomorrow. 1t was oper-
ated the past few days in crushing
rocks for the filtering crib which the
city will build in the river near the
pumping station. 1t is said the road
roller will nave to undergo numerous
repairs on account of the great wear it
has been subject to the past season.

LIKE WAUSAU BEST.

Five Russian families, three of them
former residents Of Wausau, arrived
here from Kalamazoo, Mich, Thursday
and will look for homes. Two years
ago in the dead of winter party of
Russians arrived here almost penniless.
Their cond ition was pitiable, and the
charitably inclined people of Wausau
found quarters for them, furnished
them with clothes and eatables and
gave them work They sooa became
-eIf sustaining and prosperous. Each
family was large and number of the
children in each were large enough 10
work, and it is said the united efforts
of children and parents in day labor
brougb. &c the family treasures about
500 per day, for each family. Still
they were not contented, and early last
spring went to Michigan TO cultivate
sugar beets ard where they heard that
a strata of silver dollars covered the
ground. They soon realized their mis-
take and have been working all sum
mer to earn enough money TO get back
to Wausau, and here they expect to re-
main. They win attempt to acquire
homes of their own, and viii 80 doubt
succeed. for they are thrifty, econom-
ieal people.

the mill and 5000 additional acres of
timber land of IL. A. Ostrander & Co,
and the old mill will be allowed to
stand and may be operated at some
future time though this fall lit is idls.
The Ingram Lumber Co. is operating
five camps and the mill Will be run
night and day all winter.
