MILD WINTER.

So far the winter has been a very
delightful as well as an exceptionally
mild one, in fact, those who have kept
track of the weather, say that the past
month has been the mildest one known
since 1878. While mercury may have
touched zero during some of the nights,
1t did not get anywhere near it during
daylight, in fact some days have been
very spring like. The earth has d
heavy covering of snow, but Jack
Frost has not pierced it more than six
inches. Of course this is poor condi-
ton for the logger, for the ice on the
lakes and swamps is too thin to drive
upon them with safety. That it is an
undisguised blessing to the poor, who
are able to make their wood piles last
all the longer must be admitted. The
weather man has not as yet, reported
any very cold or stormy weather ahead
Mercury dropped to twelve below zero
Sunday night and it was ''pretty cold,
thank you" Twelve years ago the
coolest day we had all winter was on
Dec. 18th. 1t is reported that up in
Northern Michigan farmers have been
blowing, until recently. Parties
having occasion to go into the woods,
however, report that the mosquito
season is about passed.

been ailing for FIVE months past, she
felt quite well during the early part of
New Years day up to 3 o'clock in the
afternoon. She partook of a hearty
dinner and after the dinner hour she
spent some time in playing at the piano
and singing, and was in the best of
spirits. At the hour m mentioned she was
seized with coughing spell and two
hours later her eyes closed in death.

0RR-LANG.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. j. F. Nc
Elroy, 241S Fremont avenue S, was the
scene of pretty wedding Wednesday
evening, when their niece, Miss Edith
M. Lang. daughter of Mr. and Mrs
William Lang, of New Prague, became
the bride of DR.. Robert B. Orr, of Con-
cord, n. H., now of New Prague. Thirty
invitations had been iss1ed and the
guests included the relatives and a
group of intimate friends. Rev. Theo-
dore Payne Thurston read the service
in the large drawing room, which was
decked in the holiday colors Ropes of
ground pine were caught from the
chandeliers toward the baywindow and
formed baldachin of green above a
bank of palms and pine. Suspended
from the green were bright wedding
bells and bows of green were fastened
among the foliage. Miss Lottie Roosen
and Miss Florence Earl played the
nuptial music on their violins with
piano accompaniment by Everett Nc
Elroy. The Mendelssohn march was
the professional music and following
the service, the Glover Song and
other selections were played.
Miss Lang entered unattended and
was met at the improvised altar by DR..
Orr. She was gowned in heletrope silk
accordion pleated and with trimmings
of fine lace. The boquet was of bride
roses.
During the informal reception which
followed the service DR.. and Mrs. Orr
were assisted in receiving by Mr.. and
Mrs. William Lang, of New Pargue, and
Mrs. McElory Mrs. Fred L. Gray
presided in the dining room assisted by
a bevy of young girls, Misses Vera
Jones, Irene Parker, Abbie Reed and
Marion Fish. The decorations were in
red roses and smiiax. The center piece
was basket of roses, and red satin
ribbons were stretched over the cloth
and caught in large bows at the corner
of the table.
DR.. and Mrs. Orr left in the evening
for New Pargue where they will be at
home after Jan. g. Mrs. Orr wore
handsome going away gown of black
with a fur coat and hat to match.

JAM ES-YOUNG.
JACK

At 7:30 o'clock Wednesday, at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs Geo. Rick, on
Warren street, f. M. James and Miss
Althea Young were united in marriage,
the ceremony being performed by Rev.
S. N. Wilson, pastor of the Presbyterian
church. The wedding was very quiet
one, there being only q few relatives of
the contracting parties present, and the
bride and groom were unaccompanied
by attendants. Following the ceremony
reception was held, the house decora-
tions being Christmas green's and South
ern pine branches Somehow the i'm
preston gained credence among their
friends that they were to leave the city
that evening on wedding tour, and
there were many on hand at the North
western depot that night to bid them
farewell, and shower them with rice,
but Mr.. and Mrs. James remained in
the city and enjoyed laugh on their
friends.
The groom is one of the best known
men of our city and we believe needs
no introduction in this article He is
at the head of the James Music Co. and
stands high in the estimation of our
citizens, socially as well as in business
way. The bride, though born in Port
Washington, is considered a Wausau
girl, for she has lived here practically
all her life. She is graduate of our
high school and of the Stevens Point
normal school, She has taught in our
city and county schools and was deputy
superintendent of schools. All join in
wishing Mr. and Mrs James long years
of happy married life. They have gone
to housekeeping at No. 625 Fulton St.
Those from out of town who were pres
ent at the wedding were Mrs. F. T..
Tucker, of Madison, sister of the bride,
and Miss Alice Smith, Chicago.

LETTER FROM FLORIDA.

Jack Mylrea and Guy GoodiGg have
EN- spending the holidays in Florida
aad an interesting letter from The
former to his parents was received last
sturday, which the FILor is permitted
to publish, viz:
HoLLYHURsT, AVON PARE, Fla
DEAREST Folks We are here and it
Is the nearest to perfect, you ever saw.
We left Asheyille, Thursday, and got to
Jacksonville the next afternoon, six
hours late, but we had plenty of time
and saw the town. Then we took a
sleeper down to Wauchola where a
stage met US and we drove thro the
sand until 800 p. M Florida is as fiat
as table and covered with long leaf
pine. 1t looks like one big park, as
there is no underbrush and you can see
nearly half mile under the trees 1t
was very hot driving out and rather
tiresome as there are only few set
tiers. These all have orange groves.
We stopped at one and ate all we want
ed right off the tree. Imagine it. 1t
was so hot that we were uncomfortable
with our coats and hats off sitting STILL
Major has fine cottage on nice
lake. 1t is like those in N. Wis, clear
and timber all around He has several
hundred orange and grape fruit trees
and big field of pine apple. We've
only been here few hours aud up to
date I've eaten one grape fruit, fourteen
oranges, nine tangerines and one-quar-
ter pineapple. The trees are just load
ed and we pick them whenever we want.
This country is an immense surprise
to me. | thought it was well settled
but it is big wilderness and so level
it reminds me of the land down near
babcock, only the trees are bigger and
are all over.
We are going in swimming in the
morning; come on in, the waters fine.
Major and we three are going off on a
three days trip Tuesday after wild
turkey and deer. The woods are full
of game and we are just having the
best time you could imagine.
| suppose we will break away next
Sunday. | believe | would like to live
here. You can buy an orange grove
for S15, 900 and you can get 50, 0G0 every
year for your crop and you don't even
have to pick them.
1t is real warm and this noon we have
quail on toast, venison and grape fruit.
Don't you wish you had some. The
grape fruit are as big as my head and
just prime.
We take Xmas dinner with Col. and
Mrs. Davidson III town. MAJORS place
is two miles QUIT and every day we hunt.
Well hope you are having a good
time and Pll write more, later.
Lovingly,

PATRICK WINS FIGHT
WILL NOT DIE IN THE CHAIR
AT ANY RATE.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 24-Lawyer Al
bert T. Patrick has won his fight for life
His end will not be in the electric chair.
Before Gov. Higgins gives UP his Office
as chief executive Of the state he will
sign Communication of the death sentence.
Life imprisonment will be Patrick's fate.
Whether the communication of the death
sentence will be brought about without q
further hearing on the part Of witnesses
for Patrick or whether a commission will
be appointed by the governor to look into
the mass Of medical and other expert tes-
timony submitted to him recently has not
been fully determined upon. Gov. Hig-
gins, however, will not permit the sentence
of the law in Patrick's case to be carried
out.
Patrick all along has declared that he
did not want to have his sentence COM
muted to life Imprisonment. He has told
his friends and his attorneys that all he
wanted was Justice" and If that was
denied he would rather march to the death
chair.
Patrick even went so far some time ago
as to address a letter to Gov. Higgins in
which he told the executive that he would
refuse any kind Of clemency that might be
offered to him.
II will accept no compromise" Patrick
wrote to the governor. Patrick has not
learned Of the governors decision.
