REMOVED SEATS.

The four seats on the county square
facing Third street were removed by
the janitor, Friday, upon direction OF
the county board public property com
mittee. The seat privilege has been
misused When they were placed there
they were intended for ladies or strang-
ers coming from afar, but they have
been monopolized by crowd of young
men who have loafed upon them when
they ought to be in better business.
These young men have Uttered the
walk with peanut shells. paper, etc.
and have also many times made EN-
barassing remarks when ladies were
passing along the street. 1t was almost
impossible for lady to get seat and
the police force was powerless to re-
move these young men from the seats,
simply for the reason that they were
occupying them, because the ssettees
were located on county property. The
other seats facing Scott, Fourth and
Jefferson streets will be allowed to re
main for time. If the young men
persist in holding them down, they, too,
will be removed-not the young men,
but the seats. 1t has been customary
for young men to stretch themselves
out on the grass in front of the county
building. This custom, too, will be
suppressed

LARG E BERRY CROP.

Reports from everywhere in North
ern Wisconsin indicate that this year
will see bumper crop of raspberries
and black berries raised in this territory
The bushes of the former are loaded
down with green berries and the bushes
of the latter are laden with blossoms,
heavier than usual. The raspberries
will be little late. owing to the back
ward spring. Unless drought or
some otherunforseen thing occurs there
will be an abundance of berries of both
varieties on the market. Every berry
crop except the cultivated strawberry
seems to be success this year. Wild
strawberries never grew more plenti-
full or larger than they did this year.
nthe fiat south of Wausau Jet. and
along the right of way of the st.
Paul Ry. north of the city, between here
and Brokaw, numerous berry pickers
could be seen every day for over a
week past gathering the small but
luscious berry. For the first time in
many years wild Strawberries have
been offered on the market Goose
berries, too, are plentiful along the river
bottoms and those who have cared not
for the expense of buying sugar to
sweeten them have laid in a supply for
winter. There has been something the
matter with the crop or the growers of
cultivated straw berries all season-the
berry has been unreasonably high in
price.

THE RIcKsHAW AND DANDY.
Primitive Modes of Travel In Hin
Country of india.

In the mountain districts of India
the principal vehicles of passenger
conveyance are the 'rickshaw and the
dandy" with which Rudyard Kipling
has made US familiar. United States
Consul Gen. Michael, Of Calcutta,
writes thus about these vihicles:
"The rickshaw is pushed and pulled
through the streets and ON the roads
leading out into the country by four
coolies, and the dandy is carried on
the shoulders of four and sometimes
six coolies. Saddle ponies are also
used to some extent but most of the
inhabitants and quite all visitors used
the 'rickshaw and dandy The latter
is constructed on the plan of sleigh
box, but longer. A pole is attached
fore and aft, which is long enough to
give springy motion when the coolies
are walking and trotting. A cross
piece rests on the shoulders of the
coolies and Is shifted now and then
from one shoulder to the other for
rest. BY the command of the coolie
in charge this shift is made simultane-
ously. AS a rule, both the 'rickshaws
and the 'dandies' are heavier than
they need to be, and they are general
ly lacking In finish. Yet these vehicles
cost as much as light and strong ones
well finished should cost. The writer
would like to place alongside of the
'rickshaws and 'dandies' IN use in In
dia some samples manufactured In
the United States after designs made
by an American designer. The sam
pies would attract orders"

BAD CONDITION.

The large sewer which was laid up
Stinchfield creek last season, to carry
away the water from that stream, does
its work we'll, but much water flows
from the high banks onto the low
ground which was formerly the bed of
the creek. This forms large pools
which become stagnant and foul smell
ing and very annoying to all who live
anywhere near them. As rains are
frequent during the summer season,
these sink holes are always full of stag
nant water, covered with scum of
green and are a menace to the health of
all who live in the neighborhood
Something should be done, if possible,
to remedy the condition. The city
officials should look into the matter at
once

A HOME COMING"

1t is the thing now in every commun-
ity to have a "Homecoming;' time
set when former residents of a city can
return and be assured of meeting old
friends. They have proven very pleas
ant and enjoyable occasions. Many
cities of Wisconsin have had Home
comings' this year and all have been
very successful. The Central Wiscon-
sin suggests that Walsau have gath
ering of this nature and calls upon
Mayor Duncan to organize one for the
coming county fair A Homecoming"
at that time will bring many children to
their homes and it will induce former
residents to travel a good ways when
they know that they will meet old
friends. By all means let us have a
Homecoming" Let the agitation be-
gin at once and the time, during
the county fair, in September The fair
time has been found inopportune for
holding the annual old settlers meet
ing. Chances must be taken of run
ming into cold spell and inclement
weather. In the event of such weather
it spoiIs the usual picnic dinner, be-
cause there are no vacant buildings in
which to go, and it is menace to the
health of many of those advanced in
age. The annual meeting of the Old
Settlers club should be held in July or
August and at the fair grounds, when
one of the large buildings can be
opened, if necessary, in case of storm.
Let Mayor Duncan select a few
hustlers to work up Homecoming"
for Wausau in September.

THE GREEN BUG
The Bugs that Destroy Oat Fields
Coming North.

In a recent issue of the PlLoT was
published an article about the ravages
of the green bug in oat fields of North
ern Illinois. They are making their
way northward and are now doing
business in counties in the center of
the. state. The Fond du Lac Reporter
says of the work the bug is doing down
there:
"A new pest is said to have made its
appearance in Fond du Lac county and
it the predictions come out correctly
the oat crop this year will be very light.
A new pest which goes by the name of
the green bug has been found in several
places about the county. The bugs are
so small that they can hardly be dis
tinguished with a microscope. They
attach themselves to the leaves and
take all the vitality from the plant.
No preventive for the pest has been
discovered, although farmers have tried
various remedies, none of them have re-
sulted successfully. 1t has been stated
that the crop in fond du Lac county
this year will not average more than
twenty bushels to the acre. The main
section of the county where the damage
reports have been heard from is in
Byron and Calvary"

several crossings in the city. The tow
ers were built in Babcock and shipped
here on fiat cars, all ready to put up.
They are not quite so high as those
erected by the Northwestern sR'y at
First and Third avenues. A stove in
the lower part will carry heat in winter

with the city regarding the protection
of the public at their crossings.
Grounds in the southern part of the
city opposite the cemetery, including
part of Johnson's addition have been
leased to the Barnum & Bailey circus
owners as show grounds. The lease
was made in the name of the city,
which, since The matter of ownership
of the land was agitated last winter,
has assumed possession. This is part
of the land decided fifty years ago to
the village of Wausau by VIM. and
Margaret Kennedy, upon condition
that it be forever used for cemetery or
park purposes. When the agent of the
Baruum & Bailey shows was here
Thursday he made contract with the
street railway company to clear the
land, so that the circus could show
there, The company took its crew
away from railway building and en-.
gaging teams cleared off all stumps

Wisconsin, Valley Improvement
Association Arranges for Business.

A meeting of the Wisconsin Valley
Improvement association was held the
early part of the week for the purpose
of electing officers and arranging to be-
gin business. This was the first meet
ing held since the associations bill,
granting to it the powers to carry out
its plans, was passed by the legislature.
There was large attendance of mem
hers, fully three-fourths of the water
power on ne Wisconsin river being
represented Dy its owners. 1t was de-
cided to purchase reservoirs at lake
Vieux Desert, two on the Eagle chain
of lakes. one near Minocqua and one on
Big Twin lake. 1t is estimated that
these have storage capacity of 4, 600,
0O0, 900 cubic feet of water, available at
any time required.
The association elected directors as
follows:
L. Nj. Alexander, e. Whiting. A. H.
Reid, T. E Nash, Walter Alexander, q.
d. Jones, A. w. Shelton.
These in turn elected the following
officers:
President-Geo. A. Whiting

Sec. and Trea.s-G ID. Jones
1t was decided to employ a civil
engineer and to open offices in Wausau.

those now represented. The estimated
horse power of the Wisconsin river be-
tween Eagle River and Kilbourn City is
1O0, 900. while only forty per cent. is be-
ing used at present. The idea will be

CONN0R'S RAILROAD.

The Marathon County Railroad com
pany, owned by the r. Connor Lumber
company, was before the railroad com
mission one day last week, on a COM
plant filed by Nicholas Streyeler, of
Marshteld, who asked that the railroad
company be requires to put on regular
train which should carry passengers and
receive package freight and other
freight in less than car load lots He
also asked for better station facilities at
Halder, small station on the line of the
railroad. Mr.. Streveler and others tes-
titled that sometimes it would be almost
week between trains on this road.
The line is but fourteen miles long
and is used purely for logging purposes.
The equipment consists of one locomo-
tive, some freight cars used for shipping
logs and one caboose. According to the
testimony before the COMMISSION, the
railroad has no facilities for handling
passenger traffic and thatit has no fa-
cilities for handling package freight, but
that in the absence of these facilities it
has been the practice to allow passen-
gers to ride free of charge in the caboose.
of the freight trains whenever they were
run and also to carry such package
freight as was offered in the caboose.
Mr.. Streveler, Matt Schmidt and Bert
Austin, all testified that they were will
ing to pay reasonable rates for passen-
ger service and passage freight accom-
modations if they could only be given
some assurances of regularity, R. Con-
nor, brother of Lieut.. Gov. W. ID. Con-
nor, appeared for the railroad company.
The commission took the matter I'M
der advisement.
Streveler was formerly sergeant at
arms of the assembly, which position he
gained through the influence of Con-.

The fear of Wisconsin farmers that the
"green bug" which is creating havoc
in the wheat fields of the south has in
vaded this state and attacked the oat
j. G. Moore, sgronomist at the college
of agriculture of the University of Wis
consin. Extensive investigation of the
fields affected has revealed the fact that
rust is responsible for the poor condi-
ton of the oat crop. and the green bugs
found on many plants in some districts
are but common aphides. Discussing
the situation, Prof. Moore says:
Farmers have become alarmed be-
cause oat fields have taken on reddish
brown color, and plants are making
little growth. While the stand is good,
the plants have not reached the height
usual for this season. Looking for the
cause, farmers have found green
louise or aphis on the plants In some
districts the louise was so numerous
that the poor condition of the crop was
attributed to it,
Practically ali damage done may be
attributed to oat rust, found on all the
plants. Reddish brown blotches APP
pear on the leaves of the plant, some
what elongated, which later turn dark
brown. In nearly eli cases the leaves
turn brown at the end and die tack to
the stool. This is because the rust
takes mp the nourishment which would
naturally go To the tissues, and they
starve and turn brown. While most
farmers are acquainted with rust, they
have overlooked it as the cause of the
present trouble because it appeared SC
much earlier than usual.n
