GOES WEST TO LIVE.

VIM. Rietz and son, Fred, departed
Thursday evening for Chico, Cal, where
they expect to be permanently located.
Since the death of Mrs. Rietz a few
weeks ago at her home in Menominee,
Mich, Mr.. Rietz has spent part of the
time there and here, strengthening up
affairs preparatory to moving to the
West. He has placed his other four
children in the home of Mr. and Mrs f.
Boiler, this city Mr.. Rietz is employed
by the Diamond Match Co., in looking
after its timber interests in the West.
He states that the company has big

road for which it manufactures its own
rolling stock. 1t has large machine
shops, a saw mill, match factory and
factory wherein is manufactured
everything in the line of woodwork

much pleased with the West. He ex-
poets to visit his children here from
time to time.

terprise on the Wisconsin river. Nc
Indoe, in his life, was the most far
seeing as to the future prospects of
this section of the country, of any
of the many shrewd, hard-headed men
that have ever done business in the
Valley. When in congress, after Han
chett's death, McIndoe got a grant Of
land voted to Marathon county to
build and open up wagon road from
here to the state line at Lac Veaux
Desert. The grant was for each alter
nate section on each side of the road.
The state, at McIndoe's urgency, do
mated some s1,500 to survey and locate
the road. The county supervisors az
that time, who had better not be
named, frittered and fooled away the
state money in pretended survey and
location, so that the grant was final
ly lost to the county. Had the coun-
ty board done as they might and
should have done, Marathon county
would have gotten 200 sections of the
best pine land the country afforded.
Further, McIRdoe, in congress, worked
for, and through his persistent efforts
the great Wisconsin Central land
grant was given to the state. The

and Portage by way Of Stevens Point
to Ashland and Superior. Put a rule

BILE, true-hearted man. His love for
his adopted country was first and fore
most in all his thoughts and actions
during the rebellion. He often said

HONORED THEIR COM MAN DER.
knights Templar Have Royal Time
With Rector w. E Wright.

Geneva, July 17.-Twenty members
of Columbian commandery Knights
Templar of Ashtabula and few of
Geneva assembled at the home of Emil
nent Commander William f. Wright.
Though not surprised at their presence,
Rev. Wright was surprised on going to
the door to greet them to find them
drawn up in line and when Sir Knight
H. r. Faulkner, on behalf of the COM
mandery, in speech in which he COM
plimented Sir Knight Wright on his re-
lation to the order and the good work
he was doing, presented him with
beautiful gold trimmed uniform and
sword.
The sheath to the sword was of gold
and the name VIM. 4. Wright stood
out in bold letters thereon. The sword
itself was of the finest steel and the
same name appeared thereon. The
gift was very costly and appropriate
one and the recipient, taken by sur
prise, could only utter few words of
thanks.
The home was profusely and beau
tifully decorated with flowers from the
rector's garden, and lighted without
with Chinese lanterns, and the place
was turned over to the visitors to do as
they chose.
Mrs. Wright, DR.. Chas. Fletcher and
Ralph Munger entertained the visitors
by several fine selections of music and
a very pleasant social time was enjoyed
by all. The ladies of the family and
few friends had prepared abundant re-
freshments which were served on tables
arranged in the form of maltese cross
which is the emblem of the order.
After partaking of the good things
provided Commander Wright, acting
as toastmaster, called on several of the
knights who responded to toasts in
very happy manner. The Ashtabula
contingent took the ii O'Clock car for
home, all having apparently enjoyed
themselves to the utmost, and left their
eminent commander in very happy
state of mind.-Ashtabula (O) Beacon
Record.
Mr.. Wright needs no introduction to
Wausau people. He is the father of L.
X. Wright of this city, and himself and
family were for many years residents of
Wausau, when he was rector of st.
Johns church. AS Mason he has al
ways stood high in the estimation of
his brothers of the order for he has al
ways been an interchangeable worker in
their ranks.
Ashtabula is ten miles distant from
Geneva, MIR. Wright's present home,
but interurban cars run hourly be-
tween the two cities making one in the
door yard of the other At the time
Mr.. Wright was elected eminent COM
mandeT he was of the opinion that the
condition of his health would not per-
NIT him accepting the office, but his
remonstrances would not be listened to
by the members of Ashtabula lodge.
The news contained in the above
clipping is received with pleasure by
Mr.. Wright's brother Masons in this
city, and by his former parishioners
and friends generally.

LAST LOG CUT.

The Tomahawk Leader contained the
following news item in its last issue:
''Salisch q Wilson's saw mill at Star
lake was closed down today perma-
nently, the firm having completed the
saving of its timber The planning
mill, however, will be operated for
another year The closing of the mill
and the breaking up of the commun-
ity of employees will be marked by
big dance, to be held tonight. The af-
fair will be large one and friends will
come together for joyous farewell
gathering. Cones orchestra of Wau-
sau will furnish the music for the
dance"
B. F. Wilson returned to his home in
5his city Friday evening and stated
hat he was n witness to the cutting up
of the last log, which was run through
the mill at about 4:30 o'clock that after
noon. The mill was built about seven
teen years ago and has been operated
almost continuously night and day
ever since. Now since the company
has decided to pull up stakes at that
place, it is presumed that the town will
dwindle away, for aside from lumber
ing operations there is nothing to hold
it together.

The Wausau Canning Co. is turning
out a large pack of peas each day at
present, the output some days exceed
ing $4,000 cans. The work is much
facilitated this year on account of the
number of yiners being used. Very
few ,loads of peas, vines, pods and
all as compared with other years,
are being hauled TO the factory
this season-only the ones raised near
town. After the pea vines are cut,
they are run through the viners and
shelled out. The peas are then put in
cases and hauled to the cannery. The
company has had no trouble in getting
labor, because the bulk of the labor
employed are children who work dur
ing the school vacation period. The
plant is operated throughout the day
and until nine O'Clock each evening

VI His Career as a War Chaplain and

New York, Dec 20-Bishop Charles
c. McCabe of the Methodist Episcopal
church, died in the New York hospital
at $40 a. m. Wednesday,. Death was
due to apoplexy, with which the
bishop was stricken several days ago
while passing through this city on his
way to his home in Philadelphia. Mrs.
McCabe and the bishops niece, who
have been with him almost constantly
since he was stricken, were at the
bedside when the noted clergyman
passed away.
Bishop McCabe was born at Athens,
O., Oct. IL, 1885, He entered the Ohio
conference of the Methodist church in
1860 and two years later became
chaplain OF the One Hundred and
Twenty-second Ohio infantry. He
was captured in the battle of Win
chester and passed four months in
Libby prison. His experiences as a
prisoner of war were later recounted
on the lecture platform. For more
than 80 years he was popularity known
as "Chaplain McCabe," and the title
clung to him even after the general

The outlook WAS distinctly unprom-
lslng. One circumstance in particular
gloomed Kendalrs mind. Fool-ike, he
had allowed himself to be drawn into
sort of halfway matrimonial scheme
Of his cousin Kitty and was even
now hurrying along as fast as steana
could carry him to the second fatal
step toward it's consllmmation The
first had been taken when he drifted
into the correspondence with the girl Il
correspondence which had quickly run
through all the successive stages till
now it stood upon decidedly senti-
mental footing
Kendall occupied himself alternately
by studying the flying landscape and
the photograph Of his latest inamorata.
She was good looking enough in all
sense, but for some perverse reason Of
the hour }he chose to resent her rich
dark beauty with passionate defiance
Somehow another face, sweeter than a
flower, star eyed, framed in a cloud Of
misty gold hair. kept coming in be-
tween with maddening inSistence, bit
ter memory of his disappointment
wringing his heart as he had never
thought it could be wrung again. An
Tlnwonted tear caught in his eye. He
,shed it away in some rage at him
IF and the next instant was poring
. ttentively over an inverted newspa-
per article.
Presently came the first call for din
ner, and Kendall rose with alacrity,
making his way to the dining car
ahead. Anything to give relief from
his present gloomy thoughts. Every
table but one was occupied, and he
took his seat gratefully, dashing Off an
elaborate order in an utterly preoccu-
pied fashion. Then he gave his atten-
ton to the dingy train Of freight cars
whining monotonously past and the
shadowy chain Of mountains, rearing
themselves like solemn green cones in
the distance. Presently a driving rain

perate frame Of mind

conference of the Methodist church
in 1896 made him a bishop.
Following the war he became pastor
of a church at Portsmouth, O., and
later was associated as assistant Sec
retary with the board of church ex-
tension.
His success as a money-raiser was
remarkable and later, as secretary of
the Methodist Missionary society, to
which post he was elected in 1884, he
added half million dollars to the an.
nual income of the society. He was a
singer and his songs were feature OF
his pleas for funds. He was chosen
chancellor OF the American university
at Washington, Dec. 10, 1902.
