ST. PAUL lMPROvEME ENTS.

The st. Paul Ry. Co. contemplates
making q great many improvements on
this division in the immediate future,
which will mean the expenditure of ?
large amount of money and the epl-
ployment of a great many men. All
along the division improvements are to
be made.
Ever since the road was built along
the Bearskin creek in the vicinity of
Harshaw trouble has been experienced
with the roadbed on account of sink
holes. The Bearskin is spring creek
and its banks in places are an oozy
mass of black dirt. Thousands of car
loads of dirt, rock and other material
have been dumped into these sink holes
at various times and still the roadbed
continues to settle and is a constant
source Of danger One of the most ex-
pensive improvements contemplated is
a new track which viii avoid these
sinkholes. About Is, 600 cubic yards of
dirt will be used for filing at the Toma-
hawk bridge and at the long bridge en-

o. E. Priest has been appointed post
master of the new town of Ellis, in this
county that the anniversary ball'' at
Mosinee, on the evening of the 9Th was
a grand affair. Music was furnished
by "Rousseau's Qnadrille Band" and
Mike was greeted in happy manner
by many old Wausau friends. The
supper was fine, doing great credit to

pany. No one who was present, as
years roll on will think of January 9Th,
1858, except with pleasing recollections;
that the new village of Marathon City,
about 10 miles west of Wausau, in T. 25.
r. 6, Sec. 6-will be largely improved
early next spring, as nearly 100 families,
now in PittsburS and vicinity, are max

as possible. A heavy farming immigra-
ton will make homes around this vii
lage in the course of few years, as we
are informed that about 800 families
have lands there ard will occupy them
before many years elapse. All of those
settlers are hard working men from
rolling mills, glass houses and mines or
farms-the right class to break down
the giant forests and till the soil of the
west part of Marathon county, not
inferior to any in the state. 1t would
be very good chance for men of enter

hotels, etc. Measures should also be
taken by the supervisors to build good

INDIAN HON ECOMlNG.
Marathon County's Winnebagos go
to Black River Falls.

Bill Boyce, Winnebago Indian who
resides in the town of Kronenwetter,
was in the city recently buying few
articles in preparation to go to Black
River Falls, where the Winnebago
tribe is this week having what the
whites would call a home coming.
Bill bought good sized basket full of
goods, mostly on credit, for number
of merchants in this city know him so
we'll that they allow him to buy on
stick" Some say he is the soul of
honor when it comes to liquidating his
debts; others say he has fallen into one
of the white mans failings and pays
with promises. Be that as it may Bill
always succeeds in making large pur-
chases every time he visits the city and
sometimes secures the loan of five
spot.
Some time ago, Bill informed us, he
together with all other Winnebagos
living in this section, received an in
vitation from their brethren located
around Black River Falls to visit them
this week when bands of the same
tribe, now living on reservation in the
state of Kansas, will be present at a
grand jubilee. When asked in what
way the invitation was sent out, Bill in
formed us that it was by courier. The
Indians of Kansas viii journey all the
way for the purpose of once more visit
ing their Wisconsin brothers. The
older ones were removed from Wiscon-
sin to Kansas by the government
many years ago and most of them have
never been back here since, while the
younger ones were born in the corn
state and consequently know but little
of Wisconsin, except through tradition.
In addition to these the Black River
Falls Indians have invited several
hundred Sioux, Chippewas and Potta-
watomies, who also will be present
and there will perhaps be close to a
thousand aboriginees gathered at the
camping ground. Numerous whites
also will watch their maneuyers.
Boyce and family and number of
other Indians living near him departed
last week for the scene of festivities, in
tending to make the trip overland.
Upon their return they will go down
into Wood county where they viii be
given positions as berry pickers on the
cranberry marshes of that county.
This particular territory of Central
Wisconsin was once the home of this
powerful tribe, until the tribe was
broken up by treaties with the whites
Boyce said that this week all the dances
of their forefathers would be partici-
pated in; all the tribal customs would
be carried out and they viii live once
more, for short time. as they did be-
fore disturbed by the whites. The
winnebagos will participate in the
bttffalo dance, while the Sioux will
entertain the other tribes with the sun
dance. Both of these are participated
in only on great occasions, such as this
wiiisss he.

of Indians that has coBgregated in

petition was referred to the committee

ton is granted Mr. Cone and the Colum-
bia bands manager ought to come to

two-thirds of which is to be given on
the east side and one-third on the west
side.
THE matter OF providing public

but no action was taken.

Jake Hardy and John Bentz, two
men who bad been working near
Athens, were brought to the city the
fore part of the week to answer to an
assault and battery charge. 1t appears
that on Monday of last week they came
to the village, after having first fortified
their courage with numerous drinks of
squirrel and barbed wire tanglefoot,
ard proceeded to make Rome howl.
The result was that before they were
put under restraint a number of
the villagers received black eyes and
bloody noses as souvenirs of their visit.
They were fined S. and costs each. which
they paid.

and make all lands more valuable. The
very bad, or impossible state of the
roads in that part of the county, has
been greater hindrance to settlers
than anything else.

family will be well represented while
there will be enough other stock to
crowd the stables. Il is quite likely that
just previous to the fair Mr. Duncan
will receive applications from quite
few other stockmen for room on the
grounds. There are assurances that
the poultry department will prove as
interesting as usually, and many fine
specimens of the fowl family are ex-

The county asylum management has
promised to make a fine exhibit in the

School of Agriculture and Domestic
Economy will also make an exhibit, as
well as the city and country schools.
