sharp Rebuke to Churches

Chicago churches received sharp re-
buke from Henry F. Cope, secretary
of E Educational Religious Association,
Monday, for their "sacrilegions neglect
of the Sunday school. he said the
Sunday school in Chicago bad become
sunken to depth where sn oyster sup

New methods used 10 interest The Sun-
day school children were declared by
him 10 consist Of "tinkliug, trashy music
and bizsrre effects" 10 an effort to g q
popularity. Once year, be stated, The
church has "specisl spasm" in which
il induces as many as possible to ''loIn"
Mr.. Cope's remarks on the Sunday
school we're made during conference
Oh the church and religious education
held at the University of Chicago. DE
spoke on the subject of "The Present
Condition ofSunday School Work in Chi
capo," and said in part:
Accustomed to regard the Sunday
school So traditional and incidental,
without real importance the cnurcneS
have compelled the schools to SHIFT tor
themselves, the infants being banished
to cobwebby easements to become neigh
bors to the coal bin and ash pile; the in
termediates to squiru in the pews in the
auditorium and the saints IN the Bi0le
class to sleep in the gallery.
"The church is complaining CT the
teachers inefficiency. She is ready to
applaud the man who cracks carbon
ferrous chestnuts about the mistakes ol
the teachers, but she is unwilling to
spend dollar or thought on the Sun
day school.
"We have such dangerous tendencies
as TO divide the school into two hostile
camps to gain scholars, if only tempo
rarily, and many Of them are stolen from
other schools. Sometimes the winner
may epj y banquet at the expense ol
the losing side.

NO BILL FOR NEW COUNTY.

A cursory investigation of the senti-
ment at the couGty seat towns of Wood,
Clark and Marathon counties by the
promoters of the proposed move for the
creation of new county with Marsh
field as the county seat, revealed the
fact that those cities are now, as hereto
fore, bitterly opposed to parting with
any territory from their respective
counties. The hope, founded in equity
and fairness, that these towns would
consent to a reasonable division of ter
ritory, was not revealed.
Had the move been pushed and bill
introduced, every effort that could be
made by three county seats concerned
would have been eXerted to defeat the
measure, and an extensive and uncer-
tain fight would have resulted, arousing
lasting bitterness and fermenting hard
feeling for the future. Rather than
break the harmonious relations with our
neighbor cities it was decided to drop
the new county project.
Residents of the territory which was
to have been embraced in the new coun-
ty, who were enthusiastically in favor
of the movement, are disappointed at
the failure of their hopes for adequate
county seat facilities and real county
but they yield with fair
grace to political obstacles which are
at this time.-Marsh-

FOURTH MUM Der.

The Manning Glee club will appear
in the opera house tomorrow evening
as the fourth number of the Y. M. G. A.
winter entertainment course. The club
is said to be an exceptionally strong
one and the program consists of three
parts, viz:
Part First includes solos and concert
ed numbers by the best composers, in
terspersed with gems from the comic
operas and selections introducing action
and original effects, making them in
tensely amusing.
Part Second is a miniature revival of
the old-time minstrels, with middle
and end men, bones and tambourines,
and the many features found only in
this style of entertainment.
Part Third is buresque in costume
of the Milkmaids, from Robin Hood,
the whole forming an entertainment
refined, unique and entirely different
from that given by any company before
the public.
OF the ability of this organization the
Riverside On. Y } News, has the follow
ing to say:
"One of the best concerts that it has
ever been Riversides good fortune to
have was when the Manning Glee club
opened the Lecture associations s
course with packed house. To sum
it up in few words it was fine from
beginning to end. The men composing
the club were equally as clever as
genuine fun makers as they were at
rendering high class vocal composi-
tions. Compared, the three parts of
the program were good, better, BEST
good in solo, concert and glee work,
better in minstrel work, and the hit of
the evening came when they put on
female attire and gave burlesque milk
maid scene"

COMING ELECTION.

The spring election takes place on
Tuesday, April I'd; at that time there is
to be elected by the voters of the state,
a justice of the supreme court, and in
this county a superintendent of schools.
1t is understood that r. ID. Marshall,
whose term expires on Jan. lst, 1908,
will be a candidate to succeed himself,
but it appears that he will have opposi-
ton. Henry T. Scudder, of Marinette,
lawyer of ability and experience, has
decided to become a candidate for the
position. He has practiced for over
twenty years in Marinette.
j. II. Farrell is the present superin-
tendent of schools for Marathon
county which office he has held for
two years. He has announced that he
will be a candidate to succeed himself
w. II. Schwalbe, who is teacher at
Mosinee and who was candidate for
the position two years ago, it appears,
is disposed 10 try his luck again. He is

sided in Mosinee for three years and
Notwithstanding his qualifications as
an English as well as German scholar,
he will find the contest more unfavor-
able to him than Two years ago, be-
calse of the long residence of his OPP

fact that the details of the Office have
been attended to with fidelity and in

BASE BALL NOTES.

1t appears that Fond du Lac is to be
the eighth club in the Wisconsin base
ball league. At meeting of citizens
held in that city last week club was
organized, officers elected and the
necessary steps taken to enter the
league For some time, efforts have
been made to get either Appleton or
Fond du Lac to join. Madison will be
the other new team admitted The
schedule of games for the playing sea-
son has been made up, giving Wausau
sixty-three games at home. The sea-
son will open here with Madison for
three games May 21-22-23, and closes
with Fond du Lac Sept. 202l22 There
viii be two games played here
on Memorial day with Freeport,
and two on Labor day, with Osh-
kosh. On the Fourth of July Wau-
sau plays two games in Madison. A
total of l26 games are scheduled for the
team. All of the teams in the league
appear to be strengthening up except
Wausau-at least little is heard of our
home club. The local club some weeks
ago signed a man for manager who is
supposed to be a first class organizer
and judge of good base ball material.
1t may be that he believes that still
tongue never getteth one in trouble, and
is at work in a quiet way. Lacrosse
starts the season without asking for
dollar of donations from business men.
Freeport recently cleared over 81 900 by
holding a fair, and all the other clubs
seem to be pretty well fixed for fnan-

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

Last Friday morning, Feb. 18th, at
Eau Claire, the large plant OF the Eau
Claire Box and Lumber company was
entirely destroyed by fire. 1t was the
property of Chas. E. Turner, and VIM.
B. ScholfielG of this city, and G. M.
Lanning, of Eau Claire.
The fire started in the boiler room at
about o'clock. The watchman says
that when he discovered it, the flames
were under such headway that he could
not get in to blow the whistle and be-
fore an alarm could be turned in and
the fire department reach the grounds,
the buildings were all in flames. The
lumber in the yard was all saved and
as the company had 100000 feet in
pile, il was quite an item saved. The
yard is some 300 feet away from the
factory which made it possible to keep
the fire from it.
The plant was purchased about four
years ago and had been in operation
steadily ever since; quite number of
extensive improvements had been
made; material was on hand for the
coming years work and everything
moving for successful year.
The loss is estimated at from 5000
to $4,000, which is covered by insur-
ance.
Messrs. Turner and Scholfield went
over to Eau Claire on the same day of
the fire and returned to the city on
Saturday. just what will be done in
the matter of rebuilding has not yet
been determined upon.

LEOPOLD BEING TRIED.

The trial of Leonard Leopold and
Howard Nicholas, charged with the
murder of Mrs. Margaret Leslie, an
actress, in her room in the Palace hotel,
Chicago, Oct. Is, 1906. was begun
yesterday morning before Judge Kers-
ten in the criminal court. The trial
will be of some interest to Wausau
people, inasmuch as the first named
accused was formerly Wausau citizen.
has relatives living here at present and
was captured in this city last fall.
Each defendant accuses the other of the
crime. Each has made statements in
eliminating the other and their attor-
ney will attempt to prove that they
were hypnotized by the assistant chief
of police, when they made those state
ments. A similar defense was offered
in the trial of Richand Ivens, charged
with the brutal murder of Mrs Bessie
Hollister, but Ivens was found guilty
and hanged.
Some time ago detective came to
this city for the purpose of getting
evidence against Leopold. He took
the dispositions of Frank Genrich, who
caused the arrest of Leopold, and also
those of Officers Green and Hogan,
who maze the arrest.
The crime with which tie two men
are charged was brutal one and the
identity of the murderers would have
been successfully covered up only for
their greed for money, and the attempt
to pawn the actress jewels got them
into trouble.

WILL ARRANGE DATES.

On Friday evening the executive
committee of the Marathon County
Agricultural society met to discuss
matters relative to holding the next
annual fair. 1t was decided to have
the secretary NJ H. Duncan, and DIR.
u. A. Mills, OF the executive board, call
meeting later and fix dates and
arrange a speed program. IL. n.
Wright still being secretary of the cir
cult, that gentleman was authorized to
issue the call and he will send out
notices to fair officials of the cities of
Merrill, Marshfield, Lacrosse and
Chippewa Falls to meet here on Tues
day, Feb. 26 Providing some of the
cities named do not care to again enter
the circuit, other associations will be
admitted, for the secretary has applica-
tions from several for admittance. 1t
is quite likely that there will be no
change, for the circuit as made up last
year was a very successful one i'll
several ways The dates were suitable
to all cities interested and the combina-
ton and short distance to ship horses
resulted in bringing the best string of
horses to the circuit which has ever
appeared in Wisconsin. Large purses
were offered and not one association
lost money en- its racing feature. 1t is
likely that an effort will be made to
start the fairs in the association the last
week in August or the first week in
September and give each city about
the same dates as they had last year
This will carry the fairs into October.
II is not deemed advisable to admit any
more towns, i. e., to enlarge the cir
cult, for some would necessarily have
to accept late dates which would cause
dissension, as was the case last year
when Appleton and Oshkosh dropped
out and organized the Short-Ship cir
cult.
1t is proposed to continue the stake
race feature of the program, for it
proved drawing card last year.
