The work of making the grade for
the east approach of the First and
Seventh wards bridge is progressing
well, though work has been discon-
tinued for few days. 1t is
thought the bridge contractors will
begin shipping iron soon, though it
may be late in the Summer before they
begin work on the bridge for they have
until Feb. 1st to complete it. At the
last meeting of the council it was voted
to build a retaining wall at the east
approach which will extend from
the Grand avenue bridge through the
gully and around to the west side of
Columbia park This is the only pos

Miss Margie McCrossen entertained
the graduating class of the Wausau

arrived each one present was given
the end of a string and told to follow it
up. At the other end was found one of
the young men graduates. The even
ing was spent in drawing pictures for
prize and Miss Emma Stewart carried
off the honors. Refreshments were

Pike Lake, was brought to the city last
week to have his mental condition ex-
amined into. He has been i'll for some
time aud his illness it is thought has de-
ranged his mind. The day the sheriff
was summoned to get him he was in
possession of gun and frightened the
neighbors. At times he imagines that
he is witnessing the progress of great
battles between the japanese and
Russians at which times he becomes
very excited At other times he con-
ceives the idea that he has star
route to the north pole and while here
in jail he amused the ..other prisoners
by telling them of a scheme he had for
the making of a new kind of lawn
mower He was sent home Saturday
but is to appear again tomorrow and if
he has shown no signs of improvement

Northern hospital at Oshkosh.
