WHAT 1T is DOING.
Much Interest Aroused in our Public
Roads by the Highway Division of
the State Geological Survey.

The highway division of the state
geological survey has been very
successful in turning the attention OF
the people to the great waste of time
and money on our roads, and their
consequent bad condition.
During the winter when they couldn't
help build roads they have been talking
at farmers institutes and other meet
ings wherever the local people were
interested enough to get up such a
gathering. In this way they have at
tended about 120 meetings and talked
to 1000 or 10000 people.
They have urged the use of the split
log drag and other cheap, effective
means of keeping our roads in good
condition with such success that many
towns have voted to have them used on
all their roads after every rain this
summer
During the summer they are plan
ming to help towns build number OF
stretches of model road. They furn-
ism road machinery such as crushers,
steam rollers, etc and an engineer to
see that the best results possible for the
money are obtained These road will
be built at Sparta, Baraboo, Chippewa
Falls, and several places in other parts
\ of the stase not yet definitely decided
upon.
In addition they are furnishing expert
engineering advice and bridge designs
to towns which plan to build bridges
this year.
This work cannot help but produce
better results for the same amount OF
money we are now spending on our
roads, and will arouse the interest pi
the people in this very important sub
ject. Il
The highway division is working IA
the end that every town may get a
dollars worth of road for every dollar
of tax" and it is much to be hoped
that their object will be realized,

FOREST FIRES.
The Village of Mosinee Threatened
Property Loss in That Locality.

The downpour of rain the latter part
of the week was welcomed in Northern
Wisconsin and especially in this sec
ton. Not only was rain needed for
agricultural and log driving purposes,
but to check numerous forest fires
which hays. broken out recently, de-
stroying much property and threaten
ing greater loss For over a week re-
ports have appeared in the Milwaukee
daily papers of fires raging in Northern
Wisconsin and Michigan. In the lat
ter state the town of Nadeau was en-
tirefy destroyed and near CrivitZ thou
sands of dollars worth of standing tim
Der and hewed railroad ties were con-
sumed.
For a week fire ragged in the woods
north, west and south of the village of
Mosinee. Early in the week after
strenuous effort ard with the aid of
back fires and plowed burrows it was
thought that the fire in that locality
had been checked, but on Wednesday a
wind started the fire anew and it soon
crept in close to the village and threat
ened the destruction of the town.
Hundreds of men worked like beavers
to beat back the flames and for a time
it looked as if their efforts would be un-
successful. Louis Dessert telephoned
to the fire department in this city to
have our fire engine and number OF
men in readiness, for they would prob
ably be needed before the day was over.
Later, at four O'Clock in the afternoon,
he sent another message saying that
the fire was under control. A Lutheran
church and some other buildings lie on
the outskirts of the village and the fire
crept up to within few rods of these.
1t was reported Wednesday evening
that the church was destroyed, but this
report was erroneous.
About 5000 900 feet of logs belonging
to the John Week Lumber Co, of
Stevens Point banked near the village
were threatened, but after half days
work the fire was beaten back There
is little doubtthat on Wednesday great
er loss would have occurred had not
Lhe wind shifted at a psychological
which drove the flames away
from the village. AS it was, several
thousand dollars worth of Norway and
jack pine timber was destroyed.
On Thursday all of the farm buildings
On the ID. Roberts farm south of the
village were consumed, entailing a loss
If about SO, 900. No one was living on
he place at the time.
Ed. Pfueger, who recently moved in
% the town of Kronen wetter, lost all
lis property, consisting of buildings,
etc. Happily rain has con-
Iuered the fires and the air is once
more clear.

THE CHORAL SOCIETY.

Louis Marchetti, president of the
Wausau Choral society, has issued the
following to the members of the society
and to the singers of Wausau in general:
TIE Choral Society will give its next
concert about May 18th, the first part
OF the program being similar in char
acter to the one given in February and
the second part operatic. For the rendi-
ton of three of the numbers particular
ly it is greatly desired to have one
hundred or more voices, and every
singer in Wausau is invited to take part
In these numbers. for which Mr. Howard
asks but three or possibly four rehears-
ais. You are invited to attend these
rehearsals and to sing in the concert
and to invite friends also who sing.
The rehearsals will be held on Monday
evenings at 745 in Fraternity hall,
over Heinemann's store.

BASE BALL NOTES.

The Wausau base ball association has
received new uniforms for the road,
which are on display in the show win
dows of j. Rohde. They are checked,
blue and white with blue caps and
belts.
The boys will return home next Sat
urday, providing they can make rail-
road connections. They have a long
jump to make, from Iowa. They come
here from Waterloo, ia. There is some
doubt about their reaching here in time
for game Saturday, although one is
scheduled. If they fail to get here there
will be a game here Sunday, at any
rate, and possibly more before they,
start out on their trip at the opening of
the season, May Z. For these games
the teams will be divided up and each
filled in with local players-enough to
make up two teams. The public can
then get a line on the material for this
years team. 1t is expected that before
the boys start out, Manager Ferguson
will begin a wedding out process, to
reduce expenses. From all reports the
team is in excellent shape to begin the
season and, outside of Green Bay, has
the advantage of other teams in prac-
tice. Less has been heard about Wau-
sau through the press than of any other
club and for that reason all other teams
look upon Wausau as an unknown
quantity. Here is the way league
official sizes us up:
AT the present time it looks as
though Green Bay and Wausau would
be in the best condition for the start of
the race, as both clubs now are in the
south playing exhibition games with
clubs, of the lows league and with other
teams. The trip of these two clubs. by
the way, probably is one of the longest
ever undertaken by minor league
aggregation.
Considering the factthat players have
been shifted around and still errorless
games have been played, it looks as if
Wausau had strong bunch. Fergu-
sons team has been playing against
some of the strongest teams in the
Iowa and Three | leagues and still he
has won majority of the games. Our
pitchers have given promise of being
there with the calico, the batting is
strong and the fielding is such as shuts
off runs and wins games. The fans are
satisfied with the outlook.
The association has abandoned the
idea of sodding the diamond this season
and instead will haul dirt onto if, as has
been done in the past.

ONE OF TILL'S DEPOSITS.

We have been hearing sundry and
divers stories about that bundle OF
John Till's money deposited at the
Bank of New Richmond on Monday
morning. We are creditably informed
that it is stacked up in the following
order: That of silver dollars it covered
an area five feet long and thirty-two
inches wide, stacked up twenty dollars
high. 1t was sub-divided into four sec
tions each containing $1,000 in real silver
money Then there was a bundle OF
paper money and some gold that is sup
posed to have contained between two
and three thousand buckerinos. Of
course, the bank did not furnish these
figures, but we are informed that they
are reasonably accurate. And this was
