MORE MEN WANTED

In the general competitive exanin-
ations held throughout the state on
January sixth, there were secured
enough applicants for the positions OF
clerk, bOokkeeper and factory in
spector, so that another examination
for these classes will not be called for
some time. In some places, however,
there were an insufficient number of
game wardenS, and especially for the
positions of attendants in the
hospitals for the insane and the
feeble minded, there will be immedi-
ate need of more applicants for the
positions so that another examination
will probably be called soon. Other
positions that are sadly in need of
more to take the examination there
for, are those for dining room girls
and women to do various kinds of
house work in the Sparta school for
children. in the school for the blind at
JaneSville, in the state reformatOries,
and in the hospitals for the insane
and the feeble minded. These
positions furnish remuneration to the
extent Of from $l2 to $40 per month
and give beside, comfortable home
and maintenance.

CHURCH DEDICATION

Next Sunday will be a day of re-
joicing at the First Moravian church,
for the church now entirely free of
debt, will be formally dedicated. The
Rev. Mr.. Muller, district secretary,
will preach the dedicatory sermon,
and also pronounce the words of
dedication. This service begins at
ten O'Clock.
In the evening the congregation
will join in a thanksgiving anniver-
sary service, the congregation re-
ioicing on this day, in seventeen
years of blessed activity; the ladies'
aid in eleven years of earnest and
successful work and the Rev. c. A,

the entire city. The third delivery
will be made at two O'Clock, covering
the business and residence portion of
the city. With each of these de-
liverieS, collection of mail will be
made by the carriers. The last
collection of mail will be made at five
O'Clock in the afternoon on week days,
and one collection will be made on
Sunday at about six o'clock. These
deliveries may be changed as the
demands of the service require it.
The carriers will be authorized to
receipt for money orders, registered
letters OF packages, and will be pro-
videi to sell stamps, but in every
instance, it will be necessary for the
customer to provide himself with the
right change, so as not to delay the
carrier, as everyone can readily see
that carriers time would be taken
up too much; the patron is supposed
to be prepared for making proper
change. More information will be
given out later; in fact, full instruct
ions for the method of securing and
sending mail by means of the free
delivery service will be published in
the REPORTER in future issues.

GETTING RIGHT OF WAY

Although the Wisconsin Traction
and Power company has not been
doing any boasting of late, yet, judg-
ing from some of it's recent actions,
it looks as if it meant to build the
proposed electric interurban road be-
tween Wausau and Merrill, The
company has secured the entire right
of way through Lincoln county and
has recently filed deeds for the land
in the register of deeds office in
Merrill.
The right-of-way through Marathon
county has also been secured, with
the exception of strip of land owned
by three farmers in the town of Texas.
These three farmers are asking prices
for their land which the promoters of
the railway consider unreasonable
and Judge Silverthorn called special
session of circuit court Saturday after
noon for the purpose of looking into
the matter of having appraisers ap-
pointed to condemn the land. Both
sides presented their arguments ard
Neal Brown, speaking for the COM
pany, moved that committee be ap-
pointed to look over the land and
appraiSe the value of same and report
at the next meeting of the court, a
settlement to be made from the re-
port of the committee. This plan
was adopted by the court and the
following persons were appointed to
act on the committee: S. M. Quaw,
r. e. Parcher and James Young.
The appraisers were instructed to act
Immediately and as soon as the mat
ter is settled, deeds for the land along
the right-of-way in Marathon county
will be filed and the entire right-of-
way will then be ready for the tracks.

JUDGE WEBB'S RUL-
ING WILL STAND

There will in all probability, be no
appeal from Judge Charles NJ Webb's
decision IN the anti-pass case. At
torneys for both sides of the case
have said that there seems little use
for an appeal, as the matter appears
to have been settled just as surely as
it would be settled by the Supreme
court, as they would unquestion-
ably accept the local judges opinion.
Byron Park OF Stevens Point, attorney
for MI. Angelo, the defendant in the
case, said last week that there was no
use for appealing as the case stood
now, and that he and his client were
inclined to be satisfied with the de-
cision handed down by Judge Webb,
This shows the result as we predicted,
that no appeal from Judge Webb's
Judgment would ne taken.

Resolutions.
For THE first time since the organi-
zation of the Wood County National
bank Of Grand Rapids, Wisconsin, it's
stockholders meet in annual session
with one familiar face absent; one
place associated with our successful
career vacant. A much beloved
associate, co-worker, and esteemed
citizen will fail to respond to the roll
call at our annual meetings hereafter.
As our first and only president during
all these years of the up-building of
the bank, the wise counsel and
suggestions of Frank Garrison have
been regarded as among our bast
standards of guidance. therefore, by
tie stockholders of this bank, be it
RESOLVED: That in mourning the
death OF Frank Garrison, we can only
measure his loss to US in the years
that are to follow when we come to
more appreciate his great value to US
and to this institution.
FURTHER RESOLVED: That we
hereby extend to the beloved wife and
each member of the deceased, family
our deepest sympathy, and that these
expressions be recorded in the record
book or this bank, and a copy of the
same sent to the family of the
deceased.

2,102 LAW SUITS In ONE

Attorney Nan Doren Of New
London has his material prepared for
the 2.l02 separate suits against the
Chicago & Northwestern Railway COM
pany. each for SO. An old law in
dicated that when the railway ran
through mans land, he could de-
mand crossing. and collect SO for
every engine passing through his land
till the crossing was installed, Since
the filing of notice to the railway to
put in a crossing, 2,I02 engines have
crossed Henry Miller'S property near
New London, and the court haying
decided that each engine committed
a separate otfenSe. Mr.. Miller'S at
torney is preparing to bring 2,102
separate suits. The case is without a
parallel in the records.
