PRIMARY ELECTION.
A Large Vote Was Recorded at the
Polls Last Wednesday.

The result of last Tuesdays primary
election shows, if it shows anything,
that the voters are taking lively inter-
est in this campaign, even if the candi-
dates are not warming very fast.
There was an extraordinary large vote
cast, as will be noticed by the table
which follows. By nine O'Clock
enough returns had been received
from the different polling places
to determine who were the successful
candidates where there was opposition
in the party for nomination for the
same office. The Fourth ward, the
smallest in the city, was the first to
make return, was in by eight o'clock.
The Eighth was the last. The greatest
contests on the city ticket was for the
office of comptroller, both parties hav-
ing two candidates. In few wards,
notably the First, Fifth and Seventh,
there was considerable strife for ward
nominations, and one of the surprises
was the defeat of Richard Schmidt in
the Fifth who had well nigh come to
being considered invincible. In this
ward very large vote was cast.
The vote in the various wards for
city nominations was as is given in the
accompanying table:

MUST BE CITIZENS.

Many aliens attempted to vote at the
primaries last Tuesday, but could not
do so because of the enforcement of the
law making it necessary that every man
must either be citizen of the United
States or declared his intentions to be-
come one. Probably for the first time
in the history of Wausan every man of
doubtful nationality was asked if he is a
citizen or has secured his first papers.
As many were still subjects of some
foreign potentate, they could not vote.
One man who has lived in Wausau for
twenty-five years was turned away
from the polls. Those desiring to vote
at the election on April 7th, who have
not declared their intentions to become
a citizen must do so within the next
few days. A featur, of the new law is
that no one, not full citizen of this
country, can conduct saloon under his
his own name after July 1st. AS con-
sequence one saloon keeper in Schofield
and one in Dancy will be forced out of
that business at the end of June be-
cause of their neglect in this matter.
The one in Dancy was the first to make
application icr first papers under the
new law, but neglected to get his Sec
oId papers. 1t will affect many saloon
men all over the country.

PREPARATIONS TO BUILD.

The Wausau Street Railway Co. has
rails, fish plates, trolly poles, etc., dis
tributed along its route to Kothchilds
from Schofield. There are no ties on
the ground at present, but these will be
distributed as soon as preparations for
grading can be made. The line is
staked out and will follow the right
side of the road in southerly direction.
There has been opposition to this plan
by property owners living on the west
side of the road, but it is thought mat
ters will be amicably adjusted before
the time comes for building. The pier
under the north span of the Eau Claire
bridge has been completed and before
long a crew will set to work replanking
the bridge. The hill to the south of the
river is quite steep to climb, but the
company will grade this down, so that
there will be no more grade than there
is on the Means hill, or not as bad as
the Washington street climb in this city.
The company has considerable ma
terial on hand for building its dancing
pavilion on the top of the Rothchilds
hill. Large tamarack poles and elm
crotches have been hauled to the
GROUNDS. The bark will be left on them
and the idea will be to give the pavilion
a rustic appearance. This building will
be located near the ball grounds and
just north of the road leading to the
picnic grounds on the fiat East of the
main road is the jack pine grove skirt
ing lovers lane" and sffording an ex-
cellent place for picnicers.

A PUGNAClOUS WOMAN.

A constable was deputized Thursday
to 60 up into the town OF Texas and
replevin team of horses in possession
of young man who lately settled on
farm bordering the river north of
Trappe rapids. He was met at the
door by the young mans sister, big
strong girl, who, upon learning the
constable's business, at once showed
fight. What she did TO the constable
has caused the latter to believe that she
must have had training in pugilism in
her early life, under competent in-
structor. He took to the tall timber
and came home without securing the
team. Next day one of the sheriff s
deputies visited the farm to secure the
team, the constable having resigned
the task to him. To the deputy she
also put up q lighting front; she rolled
up her sleeves and dared him to at
tempt to take the team. Getting close
to him she sna.ched the hat off his head
and threw it down onto the ice of the
Wisconsin, at the same time calling
him some of the choicest names in her
vocabulary-names which would not
look nice in print. After securing his
hat the words of Shakespeare came to
his mind: "Cowards die many times
before their death; the valient never
taste of death but once" and he set out
to capture the team and he triumphed.
Time was when woman was the gem
in the diadem of chivalry; when men
fought for her as the embodiment of
their highest ideals; when woman's s
smile shed sunshine over the world, or
q woman's frown set the dogs of war q
growing. But that was centuries ago.
and when Independence was born, chiv-
airy died and some women of today
wag the tongue of the serpent instead
of wearing the halo of chiTalry.

PLAN RUN TO WAUSAU.

Neal Brown of this city, president of
alton, for some weeks has been inter
esting state automobile owners in a
reliability run from Milwaukee to Wau-
sau. The matter has been discussed in
the former city and at the present time
it looks as though his plan will be
carried out, as witness the following,
clipped from Friday mornings issue OF
the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin:
Another reliability run is being
planned by local automobile men and
definite plans will soon be arranged by
the Milwaukee Automobile Trade asso-
citation. The run will be held early in
the summer and the goal will be Wau-
sau, the home of PRESIDENT Neal Brown
of the Wisconsin State Automobile asso-
citation.
'The route from Milwaukee to Wausau
will prove an excellent test, as all classes
of driveways are to be encountered
on the way. 1t is understood that the
bOoi VIII CONOl oCNCIdi u lpo uClWSCH Luc
two cities and each run will be held un-
der varying weather conditions
President Brown has often suggested
the idea OF such a run and he is of the
opinion that such a test will be one of
the most complete ever made in the
West. 1t is understood that large
number of cars will be entered by Mil
waukee dealers and that many Wausau
machines will also take part in the run.
"Wausau has many automobile enthus-
lasts and with the opening of summer
there are to be fifty-one machines in the
city, an auto for every 500 inhabitants.
Last year there were only tbirty-five
autos in the city This is a record
among Wise onsin cities. Chicago has
one machine to every 450 people,

Teachers Entertained.

A couple of our citizens in the
north end of the city put up a job
on the instructors of the high
school. They were invited to a
little informal gathering Friday
night at the rose embowered home
of l.. +. Clark, where a very pleas
ant hour was spent visiting and
trying to make each one feel glad
that the school term was near It's
end. After jollying each other to
keep from crying at the prospect of
soon parting indefinitely, the bunch
concluded through the suggestion
of guilty member that they call
on Director Williams, and here the
real object Of the evenings per-
formance was made manifest.
These plotters had simply buncoed
Miss Boss into little reception as
a surprise and to attest their ap-
probation of the good work she
had done during the year.
Here a delightful evening was
spent with games and conversation
until a late hour. Refreshments
were served and the guests given a
reception which they will long re-
member with pleasure. Bre'r Viii
