WHERE Is YOUR
BOY TONIGHT?

Last week three different citizens OF
Grand Rapids suffered loss of part of
their chickens. One party on Mil
waukee street losing their entire
flock in one night. It has been de-
termined that the party or parties
stealing chickens were none other
than mischievous boys who are look
ing for mischief, but not doing the
stealing for any profit to themselves
or others.
The boys who made a raid on q
citizens garden last evening in the
northern part of the city destroying
his melon patch and we'll nigh
wrecking the entire garden, will in
all probability be called upon by
an officer before this paper reaches its
readers. This is decidedly bad start
for boy or young man aud we are
inclined tc believe that it comes
largely from parents being over in
dulgent and allowing the boy to roam
at will during the entire evening, and
sometimes far late into the night.
Boys ask yourself the question, can
afford to do this? Will it pay In the
long run? Then if you are undecided
ask your mothers about it.

DEATH OF MRS. NORA NASH

The life of Mrs. Nora Nash was the
history Of more than three-fourths of
a century. For the last seventeen
years she has lived in this city.
Grand Rapids and Wood county have
almost unconsciously partaken of the
characteristics of Mrs. Nash who had
so much to do indirectly in shaping
the destinies of this part Of our
country. Mrs. Nash has been in poor
health for the past ten years, and has
been constantly cared for by her
daughter. Miss Maggie Nash. She died
Sunday night at O'Clock, aged 80
years, leaving six children to mourn her
loss. John L. Nash, of Chicago, T. e.
Nash and L. M. Nash of this city
Mrs. NJ. White, Mrs. James O'Brien,
of Milwaukee and Miss Maggie Nash,
Of this city. Her husband Lawrence
Nash, died thirty-five years ago, and
is buried near Milwaukee, where her
four sons are also buried
The funeral will take place at the
Catholic church, Wednesday morning,
at $50, she will be buried in the
Catholic cemetery where the remains
Of her husband and her four sons will
be brought and inferred. The follow
ing will act as pallbearers: John
Waters, &. A. Corriveau, Frank
Garrison, 0. Dennis, P. Mulroy and
John Dixon.
When such tie as this is broken by
death, the heart is stirred to it's very
depth. A hurrying, active. earnest
life is not productive of sentiment or
a personal friendship, but sometimes
it is given US to know the very best
and trueSt there is in noble
womanhood. To know something of
the inspiration and motive that moves
such person and makes to their
success and influence is lasting for
good. Her life from early woman
hood has been one of honest purpose
lofty aspiration, energy and upright
ness. By her industry, correct living,
and characteristic integrity she has
gained honor and commanded respect
and admiration even beyond the
border of her home city. The life of
Mrs. Nora Nash furnishes an example
of sterling womanhood that all might
emulate. Grand Rapids owes her
much. She will be missed and the
name of Mrs. Nash will be spoken in
central Wisconsin for years to come
with that veneration which upright
ness, integrity and success gained by
industry and honest purpose always
command.
To the old residents and early
pioneers who yet remain, the death of
Mrs. Nash will be a serious blow.
These men and women will feel their
loss keenly, realizing that before long
their life burden 100 must be laid
down and their work passed on to
the younger generations.

LEAD AT STATE FAIR.
First and Second Prizes Won By
TIVE Neighboring Counties.

At the state fair, held at Milwaukee
last week, Taylor county captured
first prize on county exhibits, and
Wood County took second prize
For four consecutive years Marathon
county captured first prize. but this
year no exhibit was sent in from this
county but it is indeed satisfaction
to know that neighboring county
took first and another neighbor took
second. Taylor county scored 2,O34
points and Wood county scored 1911
points.
1t must be aggravating for the
counties in the Southern part of the
state to see the s'new'' counties of
the North walk off each year with
the prizes, especially when these
"new" counties have been despised as
farming communities aud only con-
sidered as timber sections. Wausau
