HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The greatest athletic event of the year
In school circles was the pantathlon
contest, which took place in the gym
nasium of the high school On Saturday
evening, before large and very enthu-
siastic audience.
Stanislaus Burek broke the high school
record in the shot put by thirteen
inches. 35 feet inches was the pre-
vious record made by A. Speer, May 2,
1908. Burek threw the cannon ball &c
feet inches.
Under decorations of green and white,
at the west end of the gymnasium, the
Seniors held sway. Lavendar and white
covered the south side of the gymna-
sium, the Juniors section. A shield of
orange, with white figures "07' on it,
from which streams of orange and white
were carried along the rails of the bal
cony, at the east end. Under these
colors the Sophomores cheered their
team on to second place. On the north
side, gold and purple ribbons, penants,
and deafening noise showed the Fresh
men up in grand style.
At about twenty-five minutes to eight,
while the high school orchestra was
playing and the different classes yell
ing, the fun began. The high jump
came first, followed by the shot put,
pole vault, rope climb and potato race.
When all the events were over the
Seniors had LAO points, Sophomores

is presumed intended to drown herself,
but she was overtaken by her husband

eat. She is 28 years of age and the

Entertaining Fiction.

One advantage of reading a serial
story in daily newssps per is that an in

an undue amount of the readers time.

story appears in every issue of The
CHICAGO RECoRD-HERALD, a popular

which have recently been enjoyed by

WAUSAU MAN IN TROUBLE.

The Rhinelander Vindicator, in its
last issue, contained the following:
"The Elite saloon at III Stevens
street was the scene of fist fight this
evening that eliminated in a knife
thrust which narrowly escaped ending
the career of one of the participants.
Thomas Long, man of medium size
became engaged in wordy battle with
AL. Giesregen, the bartender at the
saloon. 1t seems that Long is interest
ed in the place in financial way and
that there had been some friction re-
garding the accounts. The matter was
brought up again and fight followed
between the parties to the controversy.
Giesregen is much larger man than
Long, but the latter gave early evidence
that he could put it all over the big
man, which, according to the reports
of eye witnesses, he did very scientifcal
ly after which the two men were
separated.
''The contest did not seem to set well
with Glesregen and shortly after the
fist fight he is said to have assailed
Long with pocket knife, first making
sweeping slash at his face, and then
driving the blade into Longs breast
just over the heart.
Long was taken to Dr. Elliott's Office
where the cash was found to be two
inches deep, the blade having entered
on 81 slant. The doctor cleansed the
wound, dressed and sewed it up, and
unless complications set in, no bad
results are anticipated.
"Giesregen was taken into custody"
Giesregen formerly resided in this
city and has relatives living here at
present. He was employed for num-
Der years in the plant of the Ruder
Brewing Co. but has not visited here
much for the past several years. He
was always considered a peaceable
man and this action is surprise to his
acquaintances here.

TIES ON TRACK.

A bold attempt was made last night
to wreck passenger train on the
Valley division near Irma, eight rail
road ties being piled upon the track.
Passenger train No. ?, in charge of
Conductor p. Hollinshead and En-
gineer Phil. Thompson, was returning
last night to Tomahawk on account
of a washout near Brokaw. Just
little way this side of Irma station
the train ran onto eight railroad ties
piled upon the rails. Fortunately the
train was not under full speed, and
thus averted being derailed. After
some difficulty the ties were removed
and the train came on to Tomahawk
1t is probable that the person or
persons, who placed the ties on the
track, intended to derail the north
bound passenger No. 5, which is due
in Tomahawk at 9:20 p. m. Owing to
the washout this train was unable TO
get through, and No. 2 returning to
Tomahawk was caught in the trap

Rhinelander has been furnishing
some interesting news items to the
Milwaukee papers of late, the latest
being a story to the effect that citizens
of that town are Matching wild duck
eggs in incuDators. The report, how
ever, fails to state where the duck eggs
are secured. Some time ago a news
item in the Milwaukee papers stated
that the raceway of the Rhinelander
paper mill was so clogged with fish
that the mill had to shut down; a little
later another item stated that some of
Rhinelander's citizens had trained
wolves to hunt wolves. All these
stories bear the ear marks of emanating
from the fertile brain Of Gene
Shepherd, whose hodag has brought
him into renown as a master hand at
harmless deceit and prevarication.

About Rheumatism.

There are few diseases that inflict
more torture than rheumatism and
there is probably no disease for which
such varied and useless lot of remedies
have been suggested. To say that it
can be cured is, therefore, bold state
ment to make, but Cham berlains Pain
Balm, which enjoys an extensive sale,
has met with great success in the treat
ment of this disease. One application
of Pain Balm will relieve the pain, and
hundreds of sufferers have testified to
permanent cures by its use. Why suf-
fer when Pain Balm affords such quick
relief and costs but trifle? For sale by

GATHERING STATISTICS.

The Northwestern Ry. Co.'s officials
are making an effort to gather all the
information relative to the industrial
possibilities of Wisconsin towns, and a
circular letter, signed by the freight
traffic manager, has been sent out to all
the local agents, requesting such infor-
nation. Figures and facts regarding
industrial conditions and industrial
possibilities, but more particularly the
latter, is wanted. The local agent is in
structed to communicate with local bus
mess mems associations and like bodies
and enlist their services in preparing
his answer to replies relative to popula-
ton, public conveniences, raw materi-
ais, cheap fuels, reliable water powers,
labor conditions, market possibilities,
free factory sites, number of stores,
banking institutions and factories and
any other such information.
All such figures gathered will be kept
in the offices of the company for the
benefit OF those seeking new homes or
places for the establishment of CONNER
cial and industrial enterprises, of which
the Office has many inquiries every
month. The whole will later be COM
piled in book form aid will make a val
liable pamphlet. Information can thus
be given On short notice. Much good
can be accomplished by it and the rail
road company has two fold purpose
in view. While cities on its lines can
be benefited the officers figure that
any such cities thus helped will also be
help to the company. In many cities
in Wisconsin the agents are meeting
with the cooperation of business mems
leagues and have no trouble in securing
all the information desired.

For the fourth time within year the
store window of Albert Tietz, who con-
duets grocery store at 1926 N. Third

Mr.. Tietz purchased watch dog and
has given him the freedom of the store
every night since. Tuesday night at a
late hour he was awakened by the dogs
barking. He dressed himself ana en-
tered the store and found a pane of
glass shattered and broken glass on the
floor. Later he discovered a stone in
the store the size of a croquet ball. The
police have determined to put stop to
this maliciousness and will make siren

Any sane person will agree that John
is starting out right, and other cities,
larger than Marshfield and not over
forty-two miles from that point, might
enforce the above with good results.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local apple ations, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that lis by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.
