reform in municipal expenditures.
We favor such public improve

taxpayers, but we do not favor any
program of public improvements
which will add to the present indebt-

We are opposed to the granting of

corporations or individuals by the

city receiving adequate compensation
therefor.

guests were entertained, and as soon as
the family clock had chimed its last
chime at the hour of twelve the words,

on every tongue.

A WEIRD PLAY.

Too much cannot be said of the
strength of the character of DR.. Jekyll
and Mr.. Hyde as brought out by Mr..
w. II. Hartigan. When Robert Louis
Stevenson wrote this famous work his
imagination of the demon Hyde could
be no more vivid than that of Mr.. Har-
tigan in his personifcation of this
thrilling character.
There is depth in Stevenson's story
of DIR. Jekyll and MIR. Hyde which
never before or since has been equaled
by any modern author. 1t pictures
the coed and bad imbedded in the soul
of every human being, disclosing the
two natures in manner simple and
unmistakable.
The play as presented by Mr.. Harti-
gan is deserving of patronage and
even if you have seen it before accept
good advice, go again and see it in
the strength of an actor whose soul is
in the effort.

many desirable seats can be obtained.

DEATH OF GEORGE F. BELLS.
A Brave Fight Of Many Months Ended-Wausau Loses a
Leading Business Man, Kind and Generous
Neghbor and Genial Citizen

After struggle of several years with
sickness which baffied the skill of the
best of medical experts, death came to
genial George T. Bells on Friday morn.
ing, Decembeg 3Oth, 1904, at the hour OF
2:40. He passed away in his apartments
at the Bells House surrounded by his
family, and he was conscious until the
very last Mr. Bells had been failing
for the past three years and, in an en-
deavor to regain his health during that
time, his winters have been spent in
California, and on those trips he was
always accompanied by his devoted
wife. While these journeys to the land
of sunshine and flowers no doubt pro-
longed his life, those who knew him
best, noticed times when his old
vigor would seem to lapse and there
was perceptible decline ateach return
to his home in this city. For about
three months, Mr.. Bells had been con-
fined to his room and a good deal of
that time to his bed, and from the time
he was taken down until the final sum-
mons, the spark of life gradually de-
creased until he fell peacefully into the
sleep that knows no awakening. The
knowledge that there was no help for
him, in some degree tempered the
shock to the grief-stricken family.
Uncle George" was known to every
person in our city, and expressions of
deep sorrow were heard on every hand
at the announcement of his death.
George +. Bells was born in Dundee,
Yates county, New York, on the 21st
day of April, 1929, and he was, at the
time of his death, in his 10th year. He
remained in the East until twenty-five
years of age, and then came West. To-
eating in Berlin, Wisconsin, in 1854,
where he followed his trade as cooper
and later conducted restaurant. Four
years after arriving there, on the 10th
day of September, 1858, at Weyauwega,
be was married to Mary Jane Young,
and the union proved very happy and
prosperous one through all of the
AZ years in which they passed
along life's pathway together. From a
small beginning, they struggled along
cheerfully until success beautifully

crowned their efforts, and in adversely
or affluence they were always the same
genial, whole-souled couple. In 1860,
they went to Plainville, Mimi, to live,
and after two years again returned to
Berlin, where they made their home for
six years, then going to Waupaca,
where they resided until coming to
Wausau in 1872. They opened up a
restaurant on the corner of Third and
Jackson streets, where they did thriv-
ing business. In 1875, Mr.. Bells put
up building on Third street just south
of .4e Gensman block, and there he
conducted restaurant and hotel, and
so popular did it becomethat travelling
men made every effort to Sunday with
him. He was compelled to secure
larger quarters in order to accommo-
date the public. In company with
Chas. Mosher, he built the Bells House,
in 1881. He later sold out his interest
and built the Arlington hotel, which
occupied the space where the Masonic
temple now stands This was burned
in the opera house fire of 1891. just
previous to this Mr. Bells had pur

YOUNG MAN GONE WRONG.


John Engeldinger, q young man OF
about twenty-five years of age, who has
made his home in this city for the pas.
three months, is sought by the sheriff
and if caught will have to answer to a
serious charge. Since coming to town
he has been employed by Frank
Oswald, the baker, and on Friday
evening left MIR. Osswald's employ.
Before leaving that evening he tore
about dozen blank checks out of Mr..
Osswald's Marathon County bank check
book and proceeded to get rich quick
He filled out number of the checks,
just how many is not known, making
them payable to himself, and signing
Mr.. Osswald's name to them. He then
made arrangements for leaving town,
having his trunk hauled to the North
western depot, buying a ticket for
Marshfield, etc. Then he proceeded to
get bunch of money on the checks
and he appears to have had no trouble
in getting the checks cashed. The first
intimation of his wrong doing was
when Billy Cawley presented one of the
checks at the bank next morning for
collection and payment was refused.
Billy then hunted up the sheriff and
had warrant sworn out for Engel-
dinger's arrest. A visit to the different
banks resulted in finding two more of
the checks. 1t was ascertained that the
young man had gone to Marshfield
from here and then went down on the
Central road as far as Manitowoc and
will probably be located in a few days.
The checks passed and the amounts are
as follows
Cawley Bros, $40. 81
McGreggor & Prinz, Sl2.
Ed. Bonduski, S12
Engeldinger's home is near the vii
lage of Colby. The checks were very
poor piece of forgery. He signed his
owa name to the back and Judge of
handwriting could see the similarity of
the writing on the face and of that on
the back, but perhaps the reason the
above named people got caught was
that the young man was known to
them, and it was known that he had
been working for Mr. Oswald.

age in sincerity; of that number was
George +. Bells, and though gone to
his reward his memory will long be
cherished by the community in which
the best years of his life were spent.
thus has passed from us a devoted
husband, an indulgent father, and j
kind neighbor and citizen.

The funeral took place in the lobby
OF the Bells House, on New Years
day, at 2:30 o'clock, and was in charge
of John N. Manson.
The body lay in state for an hour pre-
yious to the time set for the services,
and a large number of old friends took
opportunity to view the remains.
The large lobby of the hotel was
crowded with friends and neighbors
who had come to pay last tribute of
respect TO the memory of the deceased.
One citizen was heard to remark that
George Bells had not an enemy in the
world, and the numerous and beautiful
floral pieces bore evidence of the high
esteem in which he was held in the
community. The services were con-
