ElkS WILL ARRANGE | AN ATHLETIC MEET
Will Probably Be Held First Week In May-Show Is Also
 Under Consideration.

In accordance with the custom of the local lodge, the Elks of this city will hold an athletic meet at the Don Luis baseball park early in May; probably on May 8. The matter is now in the hands of the committee on sports, and it is probable that a definite program will be announced within the next week or ten days.
 The semi-annual athletic contests held under the auspices of the Elks' lodge have in the past proven to be source of great amusement to the public, and there is every reason to believe that the affair this year will outstrip all previous efforts from a standpoint of variety.
 The committee which has the af- fair in charge Is composed of some of the well known members of the lodge, and they are already inter viewing different local track and field performers in regard to their enter ance in the events which will be ar ranged. Although no other plans have been definitely settled, 1t has been de- cided to have a burlesque golf match between two of the embryo experts who have been tearing up the course oI tne warren DlslflCL SOuHITy SIup for a couple of weeks past.
 Tn view of the success achieved with ''The College Pennant" in December, it has also been decided to put on an other musical comedy either during the latter end of May or the month of June. The arrangements for this event will also be made very soon, 1t being understood that the committee has a production under consideration.
 Both the athletic meet and the shsw will be for the benefit of the lodge, which still has a large debt on its clubhouse to liquidate. On account of the public spirit displayed at all times by the order, there is little doubt but that the public will be gen erous in it's support.

ARIZONA CO. WILL BE SUED
 FOR DAMAGES
Sum of S4,000 Claimed To Be Due for Infringement of Contract Labor Law of the United States.

TOMBSTONE, April 9.-From ad- vices received here today it is known that the United States attorneys of flee at Phoenix is about to begin suit for damages against the Arizona Copper Company of Clifton in the sum Cf $4,0O0 alleged to be due from the company for an alleged infringe ment by the company of the contract labor law of the United States. The complaint charges that the company at number of times brought aliens from Scotland to the United States and after paying their fares from the old country gave them employment with the company at their place of business in Clifton.
 In one instance it is alleged that the company brought over in Sep tember, 1903, one Robert Russell, an alien from Scotland by paying his fare, and upon his arrival at Clifton gave him employment as a plumber and as a consequence of such viola tion of the contract labor laws the company is liable to the government in the sum of S1.000.
 In December, 1904, it is alleged that the company solicited, encourag- ed, induced and assisted and paid the passage ot one James Duncan Archi- bald, an alien, to come to this coun- try and gave aim employment as a dry goods clerk at the store of the company at Clifton, and that such ac- ton on the part of the company was violation Of the laws, and that the company are liable for a fine of ST., 900.
 In April, 1905, and September of the same year the company is charg- ed with bringing over Peter Gibson Ponton and Thomas W. Broom, re- spectiyely, and giving them employ ment In each instance the govern ment asks for the sum of S1 900, mak- ing a total of s4,000 for the importa- tion of the four persons mentioned.
 It will be remembered few years since that the officials Of the com psny were placed under arrest for these violations and were to have been tried under the criminal laws of the United States. The cases have never as Yet come to trial and the parties have been held under bond as witnesses, that is the persons men toned above for whom the govern ment now will try and recover the sum of s4,000 by civil action.
 A similar case is pending in the United States court here, the of 1cials of the Duquesne Mining Com pany at Patagonia being under ar dest for the importation of some twenty odd Mexicans from Sonora, who it is alleged they put at work in the mines of the company. A number Of the Mexicans are being held at Tucson as witnesses and at cost to the government of nearly thousand dollars a month.

THAT CAR LOAD OF SHRUBBERY.

Arrangements have been made for a
car load of shrubbery by the Civic I'm
provement league, the same to be here
in ten days time. There will be over
so varieties of shrubs in this car all of
which will be sold to our people at
very low cost, so low that everybody
can afford to buy few, at least. These
varieties have been very carefully
selected by men of experience and are
such as are adapted TO our climate, and
of standard size.
Mrs. McRae, the landscape artist of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Ry.
Co., who is well known in our city, will
be here when the shrubbery IS sold and
will give valuable instructions as to
planting, She will also assist, at a
reasonable charge, those of our citizens
who desire to have their places laid opt
and improved. This is an opportunity
which our citizens should not let pass
by. At Tomahawk, last year, the citi-
zens purchased car load and Mrs

certainly should do as well as Toma-
hawk and there will be no trouble in
disposing of the whole amount in short
order if there is some interest taken in
the matter
Circulars are to be sent out giving
our citizens chance to place their or
ders for shrubbery and also to say
whether they desire the assistance of
Mrs. McRae in the work of laying out
their lawns.
The Civic Improvement league is un-
dertaking the work of beautifying the
city. Its officers are doing lot of
work without any reward, more than
to see the work progress and bear
fruit. 4 1t requires money to bring about
results. Every property holder in the
city should become a member of the
league and contribute something
towards the good work. Those who
want shrubbery or the assistance of
MS. McRae, should notify Miss Nell
Dunbar, secretary of the league, some
time before the car of shrubbery ar

NO CLEANUP.

From the present outlook it appears
that there will be no municipal clean
ing-up days this year, as has been prac-
ticed the past two years. Mayor La
mont does not feel disposed 10 clean up
citizens back yards at the city's ex-
pense, as was done last year. The mu-
n;cipal cleanup day is a very good
thing and the intention when it was
inaugufated was aimed in the right
direction, Sut its originators did not ex.
peet that people would misconstrue its
purposes. The Intention was to haul
away matter such as tin cans, broken
furniture and such things as could be
easily moved. 1t was inaugurated to
aid those who could not we'll afford to
hire a garbage wagon. The plan
worked we'll The first year. Last year
instead of everything being hauled to
the dumping grounds in two days, (the
time set teams were busy for several
weeks. Some persons who could well
afford to cart away their rubbish at
their own expense had the cheek to ask
the city's teamsters to drive into the
alley back of their homes and clean up
their back yards. In this way many got
rid of their ashes, chips, etc., which ii
was not intended should be hauled.
Thus the abuse of the privilege by a
few has killed the plan, to the detri-
ment of the many There will be no
general cleanup this year. You must
cart away your tin cans yourself. A
city ordinance provides that every yard
shall be cleaned up, SO it's up TO you to
get busy.

AUTOMOBILE PARADE.

Acting upon the suggestion made by
the PIL0T last week the NJ w. A. has
arranged for an automobile parade at
the time of the convention in this city
May 6. Hon Neal Brown has taken
the matter in hand and has interested
large number of auto owners, so that
the assurance is that the parade will be
OF some significance and worth seeing.
The time and point of starting have
not been settled upon, but viii be
known later. Everyone whom Mr.
Brown has interviewed has expressed a
Willingness to loan their automobiles
for the occasion.
Owners of automobiles whom he has
not seen and who are willing to turn
over their machines to the entertain
ment committee that afternoon will
confer favor upon the M W. A. en-
tertainment committee and the city at
large by communicating with MIR.
Brown. The sentiment displayed so
far is that everyone wishes his auto
placed with the entertainment COM
mittee that afternoon. They do this as
a matter of home pride. Every owner
OF an automobile who is interested in
exploiting the advantages of this city
and section should be interested in
this movement and hand in their
names to Mr.. Brown, or the entertain
ment committee.
1t is expected that 1919 delegates will
be here on the date of the convention,
May 6. Many of these come from the
southern part of Wisconsin and have
never seen the advantages Wausau or
Marathon county offers. These dele
gates come from every section of the
state. AS Wausau enjoys the reputa-
ton of being one of the most beautiful
cities in the state, all of or visitors on
the date mentioned above will want TO
see what we have. There are at pres
ent great number of autos in the city
and every owner ought to take enough
pride in his home city to offer his ma
chine to the committee for few hours
that afternoon. About forty owners
have been listed with MIR. Brown so
far. There should be sixty.
In addition to the delegates there
will be in attendance the following:
Chas. E. Wheelan, supreme lecturer,
Madison; B. F. Keller, state deputy,
Lacrosse; DR.. Chas. A. Armstrong,
head physician, Boscobel; A. M. Berth,
director, Beloit, John Habeck, Apple
ton, who will be the presiding officer;
A. Dodge, of Rive. Falls, state clerk,
who will act as secretary of conven-

SEVENTH ANNUAL.

A fairly large audience witnessed the
seventh annual gymnastic exhibition
given by the Y. M C. A. last Friday
evening, and those who turned out
were well pleased with the entertain
mept.
The program consisted of a wand
drill, calisthenics, relay race, basket
ball game, wheelbarrow and crab races
by the junior classes.
The junior A boys gave an exhibition
of maze marching, forming figures
difficult of execution and very pleasing
in effect.
| The junior B dumb bell class, con-
sisting of forty-two boys, gave fine ex-
hibition, followed by pyramid building
During the intermission the boys dis
posed of quite number of souvenir
books among the audience.
The second half consisted of clown
and circus stunts as an opener, followed
by W. III. Norman and Geo. Silverthorn
giving fencing exhibitions very
entertaining number.
Then followed pole waiting by l..
johnson, w. Lampert and G. Sipes.
They were vaulting at height of nine
feet when their number concluded
The senior leaders closed the enter
tainment, going through evolutions on
the horses, horizonal bars, parallel
bars, etc.
Tom Mcconnell, w. Gillian and
Lloyd Soper took the part of clowns
during the evening and succeeded in
pleasing the audience.
Music was furnished by the boys
orchestra, assisted by Miss Marie
Brands, pianist.
Taken all in all the entertainment
afforded great pleasure to those attend
ing, and the only regret is that the
attendance was not larger. The pro-
gram showed excellent training under
the guidance of Mr. Norman.
This exhibition closes indoor class
work in gymnastics for the season.
The classes will now take up out door
work on the high school campus.

EAST HILL EXTENSION.

As soon as possible the East hill ex-
tension of the water works will be COM
pleted. The material is at hand and
work will be resumed as soon as
weather conditions permit. The ex
perience the past winter has proved
that the drive well system is failure so
far as its being able to supply suf
ficient amount of water at all times.
Water from the large wei has been
pumped all winter and mixed with the
drive well water and the mixture is not
of the best. That strong, messy taste
fingers in ones mouth after drinking it.
The drive well water itself is very good
and tits regretted that the supply is not
adequate to the demands. In summer
it is said these wells furnish enough
water without resorting to the mixing
process, but in winter, when faucets
are left open to prevent freezing, con-
nection must be made with the old
we'll. There is great waste of water
from other sources and the meter sys-
TEN is the only one which will regulate
conditions

LAWRENCE GLEE CLUB.

The Lawrence Glee club will give a
concert at the First Methodist Episcopal
church, Thursday evening at $50.
The Lawrence boys have carried off
the glee club honors of the state for
this year, one who had been a member
of the state university club for three
years assuring the director that it was
superior to any of the university clubs
sent out in those three years. There
will be the usual college fun but the
concert will also have musical merit.
Those who are more interested in this
side viii appreciate the fact that Prof.
VIM. Harper himself will do the solo
work for the club. Prof. Harper is one
of the best bassos in the northwest and
has sung for many of the most noted
musical organizations of the country
and no one who appreciates really fine
music should miss hearing him.
