masquerade ball and roller skating
carnival to be held on Thursday of this

concert, some dances and other amuse-

idea is to give the people something for

Two women and a man, residents of
the town of Weston, were seeking ad-
vice yesterday of county officers in a
matter which did not interest the Off
GERS and which they did not care to mix
up in. 1t appears that the man had
mortgage of $500 on his farm. The
same was due and he placed another
plaster of $500 on the farm yesterday to
take up the old one and get little
money besides. He pocketcd the $500
left over after satisfying the first mort
gage and then quietly and calmly in
formed his wife and step-daughter that
they could get along the best they knew
how, that ne was going to the poor
house to live. The family is very poor
There is only few acres cleared on
their farm, not sufficient to raise enough
produce to supply their needs, and the
man is broken in health. The women
consulted a lawyer.

THE PILOT publishes, in another col
umn, a communication from the pen OF
j. G. Justensen, aldermen of the Sixth
ward 1t is a well written article Civ
ing the reasons of the majority for vot-
ing as it did on the report of the city
water commissioners. An honest eff
fort to get at the bottom of the water
question and to do it right, cannot, nor
had it ought to, be condemned by any
body
There is no question but what our
people are willing to pay out all that is
necessary for good, clean water sup
ply.
They do not want a water that is
rank in smell and taste a part of the
year and at all times so filled with an
obnoxious sediment that it units it for
any use except for flushing and fire
purposes.
They want pure, sparkling, health
full water, which can easily be secured
in this section. This we are certain the
water commissioners, with the aid of
council, will give US, when it is fully
determined just what to do
Now, Mr.. Justesen, you assume to
speak for the majority of the council.
You say that 'the water has gotten so
it is hardly fit for domestic purposes"
That lit is certain that the water con-
sumers have kick coming on the quail
ity they are getting"
That ut is true, owing to the gradual
closing up of our water mains by the
fungus growth in the pipes and the in
crease in the use of water our fire
pressure is diminishing along certain
mains"
That "our pumps at the pumping
station are crowded to their utmost
capacity
That "Dr. Sauerhering states that
| perhaps it will be necessary to move
our pumping station TO some other
locality in order to get a better source
of supply"
Don't you think, Mr.. Justesen, it
should be the duty of every councilman,
| in the face of what you say, to put our
water works in prime condition before
expanding any great amount of money
| on any other public Improvement
You say, MIR. Justesen, that 1.-The
members of the city council are elected
to look after the interests of the peo-
| Pile"
Now, while the PILOT has no criticism
| to make upon the council in voting, last
| September, to build another city hall
| but in January, when it is apparent to
every member that an enormous
amount of money will have to be ex-
| pended on our water works, will it not
be for the interests of the people of our
city to stop proceedings on this new
public building until the cost of pure
water supply can be ascertained
Councilmen do the right thing and
you will not regret it.

Still our pleasant winter weather
continues Notwithstanding the fact that
the cold wave flag has been hung up on
the court house flag pole for several
days. A few days ago the department
predicted a cold wave and the flag was
run up. While it turned little colder,
still the cold wave failed to materialize
and the rain of last Saturday froze the
rope to the flag pole so that the cold
wave flag could not be lowered. Last
Saturday was one of the warmest days
known in January for great many
years. The thermometer registered
forty-one above The coolest day we
have had so far was on Jan. 9th, when
the mercury registered thirteen below.
What has been lacking in cold weather
has been made up with snow. The
past few days there mas been COM
plants heard from al quarters with
reference to snow. Woodsmen say
there is four feet of STOW in the woods
up on the Gogebic range.

SHILOH MONUMENT COMMITS
SION OF WISCONSIN.

The governor of Wisconsin has ap-
proved of April z, 1906, as the date for
the dedication of the monument erected
by Wisconsin on Shiloh battlefield, at
Pittsburg Landing, Tenn.
Comrades of the 14th, 10th and 18th
Wis. Vol Inf, and such other comrades
as would like to go to Shiloh then, are
requested to at once report their full
names, with correct post office address,
to Capt. +. Ii. Magdeburg, Pres. Wis.
Shiloh Mon. Com, Milwaukee, Wis,
so that when all arrangements are com.
pleted and cost of transportation is
fixed, each one can then be fully in
formed by circular letter on these all
important subjects.
Probable cost of round trip will be
about forty hollars from points in Wis
consin, and time consumed about one
week. All comrades and their families
are cordially invited to participate.

Net total
S194,000

The estimated expenses will re-
quire every cent levied this year.
All that the city has on hand to
put into the water works, outside
of salaries and incidental expenses,
is $4,000.
All that has been raised by taxes
for the city hall is SIS, 000 This
can be borrowed to apply on the
water works, if necessary, the same
as the money raised by taxes for
paying off the water bonds, has been
borrowed for the past eighteen
years.
No one knows the amount that
will have to be expended on the wa
ter works to assure a pure water
supply and ample fire protection to
our citizens.
1t is up to our taxpayers. If it is
their wish to have another city hall
now, in the face of existing condi-
tions, all they have to do is advo-
cate it and forever thereafter hold
their peace.
If they want a pure water supply
first, then they must urge upon the
members of the city council to stop
further proceedings on the city hall.
Every citizen has a right to eX-
press his honest convictions and in
doing so it does not follow that he
is making, or trying to make, any
criticism upon this or any other
city administration. The question
of pure water and good fire protec-
ton is of great Importance as it eff
fects every home in the city, more
especially the poor.
Let the cry be for pure water
supply, to be furnished the city
ahead of any other public improve
ment.

In the daily papers of Sunday, it was
reported that Chauncey Depew had
partially lost his mind. Today the
same papers publish that Mr.. Depew
is in his seat in the U. S. Senate. Once

thing like insanity will not keep them
out. You cannot convince the stalwarts
of this state that this is not so, nor
many of the people of New York state
or of South Carolina.

HIGH SCHOOL BASKET BALL.

The basket ball team went to Marsh
field, Friday, and was defeated by the
MArshfield high school team by score
of "a to 49, The score probably does
not represent the relative strength of
the two teams very well, as anything
like effective team work on the part of
our boys was practically impossible,
owing to the slippery condition of the
floor
Warfeldt and Fredericks, for Marsh
field, and Morisette, for Wausau, played
the best game. The lineup was as fol-

domestic science.
This year when the seats are assigned
for exams all that the pupil is allowed
take with him is his pen. The school
furnishes the paper and blotters, both
of which must be handed back at the
close OF the exam, so that the oppor-
tunities for concealing knowledge out
side of the head are lessened. The
examinations will close next Friday,
and Monday will be the beginning of a
new semester.
There will be three performances of
Alice in Wonderland" beginning Fri
day night, with a matinee at $50 Satur-
day afternoon, and the final production

should not be built until such time
as can definitely be determined the
cost of putting our water works in
condition to furnish, for all time, a
pure and ample water supply and
fire protection surpassed by no city
in the state.
The contract for another city hall
building has not yet been let.
1t must be advertised, let to the
