a clean autumn spice, and faint salty
scent blended with It from the distant
sound. The autumn silence. which is
the only perfect silence in all the
world was restful, yet full Of sig

From the spongy lowland back OF them
came the pleading sweetness OF a
meadow-lark's cry. Nearer they could
even hear an occasional leaf hutter and
waver down. The quick thud Of
falling nut was almost loud enough to
earn it's echo. Now and then they saw
a lightning fash OF vivid turquoise and
heard jays harsh scream.

WILL STAY OUT.

"Wednesday afternoon meeting of
a number of members of the Oshkosh
Driving club was held at the Athearn
hotel for the purpose of considering a
lette 7 which had been received from
l.. X. Wright, secretary of the Central
Wisconsin circuit. Mr.. Wright wrote
enquiring if it were not possible for
Oshkosh to come into the Central Wis
consin circuit and urgently requesting
it to do so if possible.
ct did not take long for the Oshkosh
horsemen to decide this question. They
are convinced that in the Wisconsin
Short Ship Racing circuit they have the
best circuit of its kind in the state and
they propose to stay in it. 1t was de-
cided to write to Mr. Wright to that eff
feet and also to inform him that if
either Wausau or Merrill or both
should want to come into the circuit
and take dates following those of the
cities now in the circuit, providing
Green Bay or Marinette do not come in !,
they would be welcomed.
ut is understood that there are but
three cities-Wausau, Merrill and
Marshfield-now remaining in the Cen
trail Wisconsin circuit, TIE others hav-
ing dropped out."-Oshkosh North

With Wausau, Merrill, Marshfeld
and Stevens Point in the Central circuit
and assurance of getting string of
horses from the Short Ship circuit dis
trict which that circuit will not get,
Wausau and Merrill are contented to
let their fair dates be as they are.

PROPERTY DEAL MADE.

The Wausau Realty company last
week filed articles of incorporation
with the secretary of state. G. G. Yaw-
key, Walter Alexander and B. F. Will
son are the incorporators named in the
papers, though there are other stock
holders. The capital stock is $35,O00
The company was organized for the
purpose of purchasing the property in
the old opera house block, of which
deal mention was made in these
columns few weeks ago. Ownership
has been acquired of the stores oc-
cupied by the Frost-Philbrick Drug Co.,
q. F. Wilson, the Pardee Drug Co., the
Leader, the American Express Co. and
the Towle Sisters millinery. Through
the agency of the same deal the Nation
al German American bank comes into
possession of its present quarters, also
the old post office. The company has
also purchased the old Morgan livery
stable property and though no informa-
tion on that subject has as yet been
given out, it is reasonable to assume
that the old stable will be razed and a
modern brick store or office building
erected.
