Radiant house on jefferson street to

| 50, 100 for it. The owner is having it
remodeled and will have it set six feet

The employees of the CASTILLO circus
expect to make sale of the show prop
erty soon. The attachment has been
released and a bill of sale has been
given by CASTILLO, who is now at his
home in Racine The advance agent is
in the city at present and is engineer
| ing a sale He states that he billed the
snow as far as Belvidere, ILL.,, before he
heard of the sheriff taking possession
of the circus property. The entire out
fit will be sold for less than what the
main tent alone is worth. All of the
actors have left the city, but the stake
drivers are still living in tent on the
market square.
We note that one of those who had tC
pay fine in Milwaukee last Saturday
for running an automobile too fast was
Mrs. L. II. Jacobs of this city. They
are getting very strict in milwaukee,
since the fearful automobile accident
which resulted in the death of two men
and policemen are slowed away in thu
most unheard of places holding STOP
watches on machines which seem to bt
exceeding the limit. About every
machine owner in Milwaukee has haC
to step and pay fine. Wausau auto
mobile owners, as rule, are very care
full in every way, but as they are no
disturbed if they do speed up LITTLE
once in while on nice piece of road
it is not strange that they should ge
into the habit when away from home
especially on the asphalt streets OF Mil
waukee.
Henry Binzer went out to his moth
er's farm on the Mcintosh road Sunda,
and killed a large pine snake. Severa
parties saw the snake at different times
during the summer. 1t was Away
seen in the same locality, and Henri.
started out on the day mentioned Titl
the express purpose of locating thu
serpent and putting an end to its exis
tence. He found it coiled up on log
and swallowing a rabbit. He fired ;
charge of fine shot into the coil and Gu
the snake in two With tape line hi
measured it and found it to be jus
fourteen feet and seven inches in length
and eight inches through. If you
doubt our word, ask Henry perhaps
he can tell it with straighter face thar
we can
| Next Monday will be celebrated al
over the country by labor organization
as Labor day. In Wausau as well a
in other cities there will be a parade o
the different labor bodies in TIE fore
noon. The program has been changed
somewhat from other years. Instead
of marching to the court house square
as was formerly done and there listen t.
an address by some of our citizens, tn,
| labor unions will go to the fair grounds
There will be an address there and til,
balance of the day will be spent in pic
nicing. Baskets of lunch will be pro
vided by the families of the laborers
and as one form of amusement, game
have been arranged for the children
Providing the weather is fair there will
no doubt be many in attendance at tn,
doings in the park.

On account of shortage of logs it il
likely that the Jacob Mortenson mil
will be closed down soon. The Alex
ander Stewart Lumber Co.'S mill ha
been closed down for several weeks ant
unless rains come soon to raise tn,
water in the river, the lattermill Wilde
but little saving the balance of the sea
son. The company has enough logs il
the river to supply the mill until freez
ing up time, but can't get them down
The closing of the mill has not worked
any injury to the crew. There being
such scarcity of labor, the men hat
no difficulty in picking up work else
where. Those depending on the saw
mills for their supply of winters wood
will be compelled to look eisewher,
this fall, unless they were fortunat,
enough to be supplied early in the sea
