PLAYS A SHARP GAME.

Since last week we have come into pos
session of more knowledge of the methods
of the fellow who has been working the
business men of Mosinee and using the
PILOTS name in extracting money from
these men in fake scheme. We are
also pretty certain that we have got
onto the track of the fellow and if he is
caught we propose to make an effort to
place him where he will not do this paper
or any individual any injury for year
or more TO come. II is reasonably GER
tain that the fellow is not now in this
locality, but we will again warn the
people of outlying towns to place no
advertising on our account with any
stranger unless he has credentials from
this paper. The method employed by
the man was this He visited business
men for the ostensible purpose of solicit
ing advertising and presented a blank
form. ruled of into squares. These
squares he sold for so much and he was
really very liberal fellow. The prices
he charged for advertising would put
most any paper out of business in one
issue. With the advertising he was also
to give large calendar. Nearly half
of two pages purported to show that ads
had been sold to nearly all of Wausaus
business men. To the Mosinee mer-
chants who bought space of him the
fellow gave receipts from an ordinary
blank receipt book, such as are carried
in stock by any stationer. He worked
in the village part of one afternoon and
then disappeared, but before leaving
succeeded i'll accommodating quite sum
of money.
We are in possession of number of
the receipts the fellow gave and have
had them compared with the handwrit-
ling of certain crook who appeared in
Wausau some time ago. There is such
a similarity in the writing and in the
methods employed in this case and by
said crook in getting money .out of
people, that the officers believe they are
on the track of the right PARTY. The
description given of both also tallies.
The PILOT very much regrets that the
business men of Mosinee have been
duped by this sharper, but anyone can
readily see that no blame can be at
tached to this paper, and we will render
whatever aid we can in prosecuting the
man if caught.

LAND CHANGES HANDS.

Terry Laughlin has sold to Drs. l.. +.
Spencer and l.. Willard all of that
part of his farm north and east of the
railroad tracks in section 6, L. %, II. 8,
containing from thirty to thirty five
acres. These gentlemen will plat part
of the land into city lots and the balance
will be sold as acre property. By
practically the same deal E. A. Dunn
and Fred Marquardt come into posses
sion of all that part of the same farm
lying south and west of the railroad
tracks, also five acre tract adjoining
in section one of T. %, r. Z, presumably
about 60 acres in all. Part of this is
high and dry and will be plated into
city lots while the low lands will be cut
up into one, two and five acre tracts.
Messrs. Dunn and Marquardt also in
tend to clear the slough, which runs up
from the Eau Claire river to within a
short distance of their land, of all logs
and snags, so as to make the place more
attractive.
Commencing about September LIST, all
of the local train crews of the North
western Ry. will go to that point for
their trains, the new round house and
tracks being situated between the two
tracts ana they will naturally desire to
live closer to that section of town and
it is quite likely that soon a small village
will be built up. The company will
also erect a platform for the accom-
mediation of passengers who desire to
get off there. Mr.. Laughlin will build
a house facing the town line road, east
of the house he is at present occupying,
and will retire from farm work.

A PRIMARY PLEDGE.

We publish in another column a
pledge to attend the primaries and to
vote for democratic candidates. 1t is a
gland idea and should be generally
published and complied with. Great
care and caution has been generally ex-
ercised in presenting democratic tickets
to the people this fall and democrats,
every where, imbued with the right
spirit should endorse and support them.
When democrat supports republi-
can candidate, be must vote the whole
republican primary ticket and he there
by does his party an irreparable harm.
By all means vote for democrats in the
primaries.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustaehian Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out aud this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars free.

ond hour 1927 knots were made, 1924
on the third hour and 1920 on the final
hour. During the last hour the picked
coal gave out and ordinary coal was
used. Otherwise the speed would have
been even better
The endurance test began at a point
between Rockland and Monhegan and
the course extended out to sea in a
long circle which terminated at the
