day evening while sleeping on some
hay in the Wartman slaughter honse.
He was wanted for entering the homes
of his brother and Adolph Peterson
In the former he is alleged to have
stolen a number of eatables. At the
Peterson home he crawled through a
window and entered the sleeping apart
menIs of the Peterson girls, who were
awakened and screamed Their
screams scared Habeck away and also
brought their father. the latter armed
with revolver. He fired two shots at
Habeck as he was retreating from the
home.
When Habeck was arrested large
loaded .3S calibre revolver was found
on his person, and the original charge
against him was changed to one of
entering dwelling in the night time,
armed with a deadly weapon. Habeck
is evidently off mentally He has
been trying to force his attentions on
one of the Peterson girls and when she
forbade him coming to the house on
Memorial day, he threatened to EXTERN
mate the family. A warrant was
sworn out for his arrest and he eluded
the officers for day, nearly killing a
horse he hired from livery stable and
then turning the animal loose on the
streets. At that time he was bound
over TO keep the peace.

INDEPENDENCE DAY.

Next Thursday will be the 131st ami
versary of the declaration of freedom
of this country There will not be
much doing in Wausau. The Wausau
Driving association has planned some
horse races, which are to be held at the
fair grounds, and the grounds that day
will be closed to picnic parties, unless
they feel like paying csc per head for
the privilege of eating their dinner on
the grounds. There will be nothing
going on in the city except the explo-
sion OF tirecrackers and death dealing
cap pistols. AS in the past few years,
the police force will endeavor to stop
the explosion of giant crackers in the
streets or in public places where they
will be a menace to the public. A num-
Der OF picnic parties have been planned
to be held out of town 1t is quite
likely that the street car line will haul
many TO Schotield, who will take their
lunch baskets and go out into the
woods to spend the day In the even
ing there will be the usual display of
fire works, illuminated balloons, ETC.,

MRS. MARCAN.

Shortly before the hour of three Mon
Marcan came to an end after nine
weeks of suffering The latter part of
April, baby boy was born to her and
since that time she had been in
developed form of pulmonary tuber-
culosis from which there could be no
recovery. Early in her sickness she
lapsed into Inconsistencies and re-
days. 1t was feared at that time that
she could not survive and her husband
was sent for. He was playing ball with
the Binghampton, N. Y, team and ar
rived here and remained week She
regained conscious ness and began to
improve and it was thought she would
soon recover. But her Improvement
was de.usive. She developed cough
and it was not long until physicians dis
covered that her lungs were affected
A few days previous TO her death she
sank rapidly and MIR. Marcan was tele-
graped for, arriving here Sunday morn
ing He and all of her relatives were
with her at the time of her death.
Clara Peters, that being her maiden
name, was born in this city, Aug, 10,
1850, and was therefore nearly twenty
seven years of age. She was educated
in the city schools aud spent her whole
life in Wausau. On Sept 80 1868, she
was married to Arthur Marcan and
since that time spent part of the time
in Milwaukee and the remainder here
with her parents.
She was favorite among her classes
| in school and when she arrived at
woman's estate she had so cultivated
the friendship of others that her friends
we're legion. She was always of a
sunny disposition, prone TO look ever
upon the bright side of life and there
fore her company was enjoyable in any
assemblage. Her loss to her husband,
parents, sisters and brothers is shared
by that large circle of friends who were
| attached 10 her in life. just entering
/ upon a Young married life she was cut
of in the short space of q few weeks
and the hand that was wont to assist in
making life pleasant for others is now
siilled in death. Her sunny smile will
be seen no more and the requiem dirge
has taken its place. Besides her hus-
band and son. she is survived by her
parents, MIR. and Mrs. Hugo Peters,
and five sisters and four brothers as
follows: Mrs. John Merklein, Mrs. w.
o. Schmidt, Mrs. c. s. Cone, Mrs. j b.
Coleman, Miss Sylvia Peters, Paul,
Lewis, Hubert and Erwin Peters.
The funeral will be held from the
home of the parents, 52l Mcclellan
street Wednesday afternoon. The serv-
ices will be conducted by Rev f.
Schaer, pastor of st. Paurs church.

UNMINIsTERIAL DISCIPLINE.
peller of Mildness in an
Unruly Bull.

Rev. Elijah Kellogg was a most IN
conventional minister. There are
many stories of his daring on sea and
land. So undaunted was he that his
influence over sailors and other men
OF adventurous life was very great,
says Youths Companion. When he
was settled at Harpswell, he had on
his farm a bull that had become ex-
ceedingly gtrying and even dangerous
to visitors who liked to take short
cut across the pasture. The bull, said
Mr.. Kellogg, must be disciplined, and
taught some slight respect for human
kind.
He therefore harnessed the animal
to the front wheels of heavy cart,
preparatory to driving him over the
road and showing him who was mas
ter. But before the guiding ropes had
been adequately arranged Gne bull took
to the woods in a mad rush, leaving
the fragments of the cart-wheels and
harness on his trail.
The little minister was not to be
outdone. The next day at fiood-tide
he lured the bull to the end of the
wharf by tempting display OF fod-
der, and, watching his opportunity,
showed him into the bay. Then he
jumped astride his back, and with the
prowess of a "broncho-buster" thrust
his head under water until the crea-
ture was conquered Thereafter he

in Newcastle, a member of a small
band Of confederate soldiers, relates

some federal soldiers in town, nearly
all negroes, and a little scrap took
place. A negro deliberately fired at

yards away.
The bullet struck a large metal
buckle on a pair Of suspenders OF
braces worn by Mr. Crabb. and bur-
led the buckle, along with itself, deep
in his breast above the heart. The
wounded man rode over to spot
where S. j. Douthitt row lives, where
the surgeon took hold of the suspender
above and below the buckle and jerked
both buckle and bullet out.
Mr.. Crabb put the bullet into leath-
er girdle or pouch, which he wore
about his waist next to the skin to
carry some gold coin in, and thus
kept the ball and the money until the
end OF the war. There was $40 in
gold. He retains $40 of the money
and the battered missile of lead to this
day, as mementos of his war expe-
rience.
