PERHAPS 1T WASN'T LOADED.

Rudolph kolberg, young resident
of the town of Wausau, on Thursday
morning placed his hand and stomach
against the barrel of shot gun while a
companion pulled the trigger. These
few lines contain the whole story, aside
from the verdict of the coroner's Jury,
and we could end it right here if it were
not for giving a few explanatory de-
tails.
The tragedy occurred on the farm of
Carl Zietlow, on the Mcintosh road
The Kolberg family had lived in the
neighborhoOd less than a week and that
day Rudolph formed the acquaintance
of Edward Zietlow, a neighbours son.
The latter took Rudolph to mis- fathers
barn, where the shot gun was found and,
boy-like, they began to play with it.
They determined to try an experiment.
Working on the theory that if the
muzzle of a gun barrel is closed, the
charge will be confined to the barrel,
Rudolph agreed to hold his hand over
the muzzle while the experiment was
being tried. He did so. He also placed
his stomach against his hand, or very
near to it. The Zietlow boy pulled the
trigger, Rudolph gasped, fell over and
expired almost Immediately.
The authorities in this city were mott
fed and the coroner at once began an
investigation. The Zietlow boy was
brought to town to give evidence.
After an investigation, the coroner'S
jury rendered verdict in accordance
with the above facts, Edward being
eXonerated from blame in the death
of his companion. The boy killed was
eleven years of ace.

BACCALAUREATE SERVICE.

The annual baccalaureate services
were held at the First Methodist Epis-
copal church last Sunday evening, and
were very we'll attended, the spacious
building being crowded to its utmost
capacity. The program as published in
the last issue. with the addition of a
tenor solo by r. H. Richards, was most
successfully carried out in every detail
Every member of the graduating class
was able to be present and they occu-
pied number of pews in the front part
of the church which were decorated
with the class colors, Alice blue and
white.
The baccalaureate sermon was
preached by DR.. VIM. A. College, of the
Armour Institute, Chicago. The sub
ject of his address was The Magic
Skim" a story written by French
author. The story deals with the life
OF handsome young man, who being
down in his fortunes, resolved to put an
end to his miserable existence. AS it
was early in the evening and the streets
had not yet become quiet, the young
man entered an antiquarian shop to
pass away the time. While here he
made his intention known to the pro-
prietOr, who showed him the magic
skin, piece of shagreen about the size
of fox hide. The antiquarian ex-
planned that the possessor of this skin
might have whatever he wished; but
with every wish the skin grew smaller
and as it reached the size of a leaf, IFS
owner died. The young man immedi-
ately seized it and his wishes began to
come true. But the skin was gradually
shrinking until one day, far from his
home, he died in a peasants hut.
1t is the same with young people now
days, they are not willing to patiently
develop to greatness, but wish to seize
the magic skin and Immediately rise
20 fame and glory. We need enthusi-
asm, faithful work, and self-control,
and not magic skins in order to become
great. All the great scientists and
artists have gained eminence only after
long and weary toll.
DR.. Colleges address conveyed many
excellent thoughts and much useful
advice not only to the graduates but to
the whole assembly. Taken as whole
the evening was most enjoyable one
and the congregation greatly appre-
ciated and enjoyed the program.

HORSE SHOW FOR FAIR.

Secretary L. X Wright. of the Mara
thon County Agricultural society, has
been trying to get good horse exhibit
at the county fair for several years and
MS Efforts have not always been crowned
with success, not of his own fault, how
ever. This year he makes the an
nouncement that he will succeed, for
ne has been promised an exhibit from
Giuman's Pioneer Stud Farm, of Bush
nell. ILL.,. which is one of the largest
stock farms in the country. Shire,
Percheron, Belgian, Suffolk and Hack
ney stations are bred on this farm and
the manager announces that he will
bring his best representatives of these
types OF horses 70 the Marathon county
fair and will make an exhibit equal to
any IN the country. Horses from this
farm are exhibited at the international
show each year aud win first prizes and
that means that Marathon county people
will see some of the best horse flesh in
the country at our fair.
Another feature of the fair will be the
exhibit of sheep from the farm of the
state experimental station, Madison.
Types of the standard breeds of sheep
will be brought here, which will make
mixed exhibit superior to any ever
shown on our grounds. The sheep will
be ln>charge of the state shepherd, who
has brought the sheep of that farm up
to such a standard that they win prizes
wherever shown. He will be ready to
give information on sheep breeding to
any farmer desiring knowledge on that
subject.

NEXT COURSE.

The entertainment committee of the
I. M. G. A has partially selected list
of entertainments for next winters
course. The number will be the same
as last year-fve-and will consist of
three musical entertainments and two
lectures. The ones which have thus
far been engaged are Victor's Venetian
band of twenty performers; Thos. Z
Green, lecturer spoken of in very
praiseworthy words by press and peo-
pie; the Manning Glee club, which
produces minstrel burlesque sketches;
Bertha Kunz- Baker, a reader, whose
collection of comments contains some
very flattering notices. The commit
tee had engaged Rev. FIR Francis
Vaughan for lecture, but later re-
ceived word from the lyceum bureau,
under whose management he lectures,
that other arrangements would have to
be made by the Y. M. G. A. if FIR.
Vaughan was wanted. The committee
is therefore in correspondence with
lyceum bureaus for another lecture.
OF course it will be some time before
dates can be fixed for the course, per-
haps not before early fall

NEARLY A CENTURY OLD.

There passed away at his home in the
town of Emmett last Thursday a man
who was without doubt the oldest
in the county. He was John Burns, the
first white man to settle in that town
and the pioneer resident of what is
known as the Irish settlement. He was
born in Ireland in 1903 and was there
fore quite sized boy when this country
was whipping Ireland's mother country
upon the high seas in 1919. He emil
grated to America when comparatively
a young man, living in different states,
and finally coming to Wisconsin and
settling in the town of Emmett, which
has since been his home. He followed
farming ever since coming to the
county, until old age intirmities forced
him to retire. For the past several
years he had been in very poor health.
The funeral was held Saturday morn
ing, the Rev. FIR. Vadder, of Mosinee,
officiating. He is survived by his wife,
who is one of the Oldest women in the
county.

DID 1T WELL.

The Milwaukee Sentinel, in comment
ing upon the play, "A Bachelors Ro-
NANCE" given by the Edwin Booth
dramatic society of the University of
Wisconsin, in the Pabst theater says of
Wausau young man who took a
prominent part in the play:
Lawrence A. Liljeqvest of Wausau
played the role of David Holmes, the
generous hearted, studious, literary
critic, who becomes reiuvenated
through the love for. his ward, Sylvia,
with an understanding and feeling
which kept the anniversary student
so completely out of the picture that,
only in the scene where the spirit of
youth returns and he plays TIE guitar
and sings the old songs, was there any
suggestion of him. His sympathetic
voice lent itself admirably to the ex-
preston of the varied sentiments shown
by the lovable old bachelor and in
voice, manner, and expression he gave
consistent and an appealing portrayal
of the part.
