TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

The regular quarterly examinations
were held on Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday of last week During this
time Mr.. Wells was absent, visiting
neighboring county training schools.
Miss Bohrer has been visiting rural
schools during the past month and
finds in all of them lack of continued
persistence in securing better reading.
Rev. Sufficool spent Monday forenoon
at the Training school. In a short talk
he declared that real education con-
sisted not only in learning few things
thoroughly, but also consisted in the
power to make use of the things learned.
He mentioned individual cases of men
who had completed their college courses
yet were not able to perform the
simplest acts of utility in practical life.
They could not saw board, drive a
nail straight or hitch horse. The case
was also mentioned of young woman
well versed in Latin and Greek whose
business letter contained mispelled
words to the extent of one in every
five.
Rev A. E Patch visited the Literary
society and entertained and instructed
its members with an interesting talk.
he spoke OF the CONSCIENTIOUS perform
ance of each days task as the surest
road to success. He urged all to accept
strict and strong requirements cheer
fully, and meet them to the best of their
ability. Examinations, no matter how
frequent, could not discomfort the
student whose work was ALWAYS well
done.
MIR. Wells visited the training school
at New London on Thursday and the
one at Grand Rapids on Friday. AT
each place he found enrolled about
forty-five mature and capable students.
Both schools are located in high school
buildings in comfortable, though not
extensive, quarters. The equipments
are good and the spirit of the schools
excellent. The city council Of Grand
Rapids voted Thursday night to pre-
sent to the county ten, acres of land for
site for joint county training and
| agricultural school building. 1t is
hoped by all interested that the county
board will accept the gift and vote to
erect a building for such purposes
Immediately.

OLD RESIDENT DIES.

Elizabeth Ringle, relict OF Philip
Ringle, died Tuesday evening at her
home, 106 Fourth street. She was
taken sick about month ago and had
failed gradually until the end came.
She was one of the early residents of
the city, coming to Wausau in 1878
She was born in Germany April 16,
1915, and emigrated to this country at
an early age. Nine children survive
her, of whom seven reside in this city,
William, Carl, Emil, Otto, Paul, George
and Laura; two other sons, Louis and
Albert live in Merrill. Her husband
died in 1891. The funeral was held
Friday afternoon at two o'clock from
st. Pauls Lutheran church, of which
she was devout member, the Rev. F.
Schaer conducting services. Mesdames
Fred Erion and John Sackreiter, two
sisters residing in Minnesota, were in
attendance at the funeral.
Mrs. Ringle vas good neighbor, an
earnest church worker and was pos
sessed of many of the qualities which
bind friends, as is attested by the large
number who mourn her death.

THANKSGIVING DINNER
Will Cost About the Same in Wauss.u
as Last Year.

From present indications, and reli-
able sources, it is given out that the
cost of enjoying first class Thanksgiv-
ing dinner after the time-hopored man
ner, will be practically the same as it
was last year. The cost ef the various
good things to eat, which are customary
on the Thanksgiving dinner table, is
expected to be on par with 1904 quo
tations.
Turkeys, the thing paramount in the
celebration of Thanksgiving, will not
cost over % cents per pound and may
get down between Is and and 20 cents.
There is pretty good supply of them,
and unless some unnatural conditions
exist later on, the above prices will
prevail. The other fowls which can be
substituted in case of necessity, such as
geese, ducks and chickens, will sell for
from l21 to 10 cents.
Cranberries, the delicaey which is the
necessary adjunct to the festive foul,
will cost about the same as usual, ten
cents per quart. The scarcity of apples
will make the good old juicy mince pies
cost little above the average this year,
but those who only prepare the pumpkin
variety need not feel alarmed, as the
usual price of 10 cents per can is still in
vogue and there are still some of this
years crop on the market.
Hickory nuts will probably cost q
little more than last season, but the
limited quantity which each family
uses will not effect the pocketbook
much. Jobbers are now offering 81 go
to IS per bushel for the nuts, but few
are being delivered Other small
items, such as raisins, figs and foreign
nuts, it is yet little early to predict
the cost

MAY BUILD HOSPITAL.

Two Catholic sisters of charity visited
Wausau few days ago for the purpose
of looking over the field with view of
later establishing large hospital here.
They have only been in this country a
short time and belong to that order
which nurses the sick. They are now
located in Milwaukee and intended
building there, when Wausau parties
got them to come here and look the
town over. We understand they were
pleased with Wausau and may decide
to locate here. If they do they will
build 100000 building, similar in size
to the sisters hospitals in Fond du Lac
and Manitowoc. This would be a
great convenience to the public and no
doubt the institution would be patron
lied by patients from all over the
northern part of the state. The sisters.
we learn, have plenty of capital back of
them and are not troubled on that
score. They will first communicate
with Rome and about Dec. 1st will
know their Eplans for the future with
reference to building or locating here.

FOUR LECTURES.

Professor Charles w. Seymor, who
gave series of lectures on historical
characters under the auspices of the
high school two years ago, is to give
another series under the same auspices,
beginning next Friday night
The series will consist of four lectures
given on four Friday evenings, namely,
Nov. II, Dec. 1, s, and 10. Among the
subjects from which his lectures will be
selected are Napoleon, Alexander The
Great, Queen Elizabeth, Philip II,
Julius Caesar, and Westminster Abbey.
Professor Seymour has a large list of
subjects The subject for the first
lecture will be chosen in consultation
with the lecturer; the subjects for each
succeeding lecture will be chosen by
the audience at the preceding lecture.
Professor Seymour presents his
character in a dramatic manner that
makes q lasting impression. His
lectures are highly entertaining as well
as instructive.
The high school is endeavoring to
sell enough course tickets to defray the
expenses of the course, and in case the
necessary 10 tickets can be sold the
students of the high school, training
school and Agricultural school will be
admitted free.
The price of course ticket for the
four lectures is 75c, and single admission
to the first lecture will be Soc.

VALUABLE PROPERTY.

The law firm of Kreutzer, Bird &
Rosenb berry has closed a deal with
Capt. j. b. Leahy, whereby it becomes
owner of thirty-tive feet of the latter's
property facing Fourth street. The
price paid was fraction over So. 6S per
square foot or $1,000 for the whole,
which establishes new mark in this
city in real estate values. The strip
embraces the north side, opposite the
post office, and will remain as it is for
the present. Next spring Mr.. Leahy
will make some changes on his proper
ty and will then give Kreutzer, Bird &
Rosenberg possession. The law firm
will erect handsome building on its
property, which will be occupied for
Offices. 1t is too early yet to state
what the design and material will be,
but no doubt the structure will be neat
appearing and of durable build. The
sale of the Wilson property two years
ago for 800 and the sale mentioned
above demonstrates that property is
worth something in that locality.

NEW TELEPHONE LINE.

| Some five years ago, the Wausau
Telephone company, upon the earnest
solicitation of the farmers and business
men of our city, built a telephone line
out east of the city to Sunset and later
to Sunrise, a distance of twelve or
| thirteen miles. One of the considera-
tons was that the farmers should
furnish the poles to the company for
the line. This was done but the poles
were poor and of most any kind of
wood, and there was constant trouble
and the past summer the line went all
10 pieces. The wet snow storm
which visited this section few weeks
ago knocked the service out entirely.
The line has not been money maker,
in fact it did not bring in enough to
maintain itself, but the directors felt
that 1T was great convenience to our
citizens and for the farmers. Since it
was put out of service by the elements,
arrangements have been in progress
for the rebuilding of the line, and in
connection Herewith the matter of
building eight miles further to Barker
q Stewards camps in the town of
Hewitt, has been under consideration,
making line of about q miles in
length from the central office. Salts
factory arrangements we're made with
Barker & Stewart on Saturday evening,
and the work of rebuilding was COM
menced yesterday morning. The crew
reached distance of II miles with the
poles last evening and tonight expect
TO be out another mile and a half fur
ther The work is in charge of Supt.
Crawford and will be pushed to com
pletion as fast as possible, hoping to
finish the work before the frost pene-
trates too deep The best of poles are
used, being of cedar and twenty-five
feet high, SO the line will be as SUBJ
stantial as any in the county, therefore
easy to maintain and designed to give
possible.

AT WORK ON SYSTEM.

A representative of the American
District Telegraph Co. arrived here last
week and commenced the installation
of a call box system, for which the
company was granted a franchise
by the council during the summer
Wires are being strung and about sixty
of the boxes will be placed in business
houses to begin with. which can be in
creased at any time without much extra
work. Another representative of the
company is expected here the latter
part OF the week who will begin work
on the night watch system. The latter
system will be used almost wholly in
the mills and factories and is said
to beat any other night watch system
ever devised. Both are adjuncts of
the Western Union Telegraph service.
The Western Union also has several
other wrinkles" which may later be
established here. This is an age of
systems.

u. S. SURVEYORS HERE.

A party of three government survey
ors arrived in the city Sunday and
yesterday began work in this section.
They are working along the Wisconsin
river, and will go north as far as Rhine
lander, possibly further. Their object
in working in this locality is to deter
mine the available water powers of the
river which can be utilized for COM
mercial purposes, the amount of power
that can be obtained, distance from
cities, accessibility, sea level, etc. The
government has surveyors at work on
all the principal water power streams
of the country. After these engineers
have completed their reports the latter
will be compiled in book form for the use
of the public and the work will be one of
great value. No such book has ever
before been published by the govern
ment, and the expense of collecting the
material will be no small amount TO
manufacturers who are seeking a loca-
ton for factories the book will be of
great aid, that is, if they are looking
for water power sites and are unde-
cided where to go.
The party here used the two stones
set on the court house square, as a
starting point. Those stones are on a
meridian line and the brass plate on
the top gives the sea level and other
data. The party will work back to
Grand Rapids and will then come north
again and will be in this vicinity for
several weeks.
