GET ANOTHER APPROPRIATION.
Another Story to Be Built on the
Wausau Post Office.

Last week, in Washington, the house
committee on appropriations reported
favorably upon the passage of an omni-
bus bill providing appropriations for
public buildings. 1t was hustled
through the house and went to the SEN
ate, where the houses action was con-
Cured in and its passage was one of the
last items of business concluded before
adjournment. All it lacks TO become
law is the signature of the president
and Mr.. Roosevelt has no doubt at
tached his name to it ere this.
The bill carries with it appropria-
tions for number of public
buildings in Wisconsin and among
them is $50, 600 for the purpose of build
ing an addition, or rather another story,
on the Wausau post office. Plans will
be prepared, after which the treasury
department will advertise for bids and
the contract will be let. This may be
done during the present year and it
may not. 1t is not very likely that
building operations will commence this
summer, though it is probable that the
preliminaries will be arranged this sea-
son. The appropriation ought TO make
fairly respectable looking building of
Wausau's post office and do away with
its 'squatty'' appearance. The second
story can be put on with little trouble,
for when the building was built it was
so constructed that another story might
be added without making many altera-
tons in the roof construction. Just
what the additional story will be used
for is not known at present, but it is
presumed that it will be fitted up as a
home for the U. S. land office Repre-
sentative Brown seems to have had re-
markable success on three occasions in
securing appropriations for the Wausau
building.

arrested Saturday morning for highway
robbery. 1t is charged that they held

two highwaymen have been bound over

CHICAGO FREE LUNCH
MEAT UNFIT TO EAT.

Chicago. Aug. II. - That the free

ing the health ordinances Of the city.
The raid OF the Illinois street barn
followed the inspection OF a cold stor-
age warehouse.
The warehouse is a public one. and
I'm g. Inspector Murray found $4,000
pounds OF meat unfit for use. A search
Of the books Of the company showed
that this meat was the property OF

In addition to the equipment az the
barn for converting unsaleable meats
into cuts from supposedly good roasts.
the inspectors found a plant for the
manufacture OF sausage Of different
kinds and other articles Of food which
