Mrs. E. A. Kernaghan, on Walnut
street.
Among the little folks parties of re-
cent date, few have been as delight
full as was this affair. which so beau
tifully complimented the graceful and
winsome little daughter of this always
charming home. The entire house
and everything within its hospitable
walls, even extending out over the
pretty lawn, was turned over to this
little lady, and for two hours all had
truly royal time. Games and other
diversions were enjoyed to the fullest
extent by the merry little participants.
Ruth Pitts furnished some real
sweet music, while Willie Graves gave
one of her sweetest little recitations,
and the little honoree delighted all
with beautiful vocal selection. Cut
ting the cake for the prizes afforded a
lot of amusement, Cora Cook and
Gladys Arlington winning the first and
second, box of Huyler's candy while
Joe Gormley won the BOBBY prize, a
large stick of candy and a dime. The
house was especially pretty with beau
tiful ferns and lovely cut flowers.
While out on the lawn which was pref
tily decorated with rugs and flowers
the children played games to their
hearts content. Here, too, the deli
cious refreshments of strawberry and
peach cream with three different kinds
of cake and chocolate fudge, were
served on long table, especially ar
tistic, with large birthday cake in
the center on which were lighted
candles.
Mrs. Kernaghan was assisted in
serving by her sister Miss Dozie Nc
Gowan, Miss McKinstry and Mrs. Gar
rett Davis. No affair ever given in the
city was ever fraught with more real
enjoyment, than was this in honor of
lovely little Unette's eighth birthday
party The party consisted of Helen
Harris, Cora and Ellie Cook, Edna and
Irene Burke, Margaret Herren, Willie
Graves, Elizabeth Breland, Myrtis Lo-
gan, Josephine Sullivan, Marie Dill,

MANAHAN'S SPEECH.

The speech of j j. Manahan at the
opera house last Friday evening was a
masterful one. The speaker was, very
evidently, almost exhausted physically,
from the arduous work of the campaign
and his opening remarks gave little
promise of what was TO come and the
democratic leaders saw visions of a
frost, one of them expressed it this way
good lord what has Herb sent u.s.
After the first ten minutes the speaker
warmed to his work and fired shot that
reused the audience to bursts of enthus-
iasm and resentment at the methods
employed by the republican leaders to
carry the election. He took the Chica,
go Record Herald of Thursday and
read from that republican sheet, the
shameful boasts of the republican lead
ers that they had the money and
were prepared to buy the floating vote
of New York if necessary to success.
He characterized this foul and open
attempt to corrupt the electorate as
treason to the country. Taking up the
coercion of labor by the threats of shut
downs and discharge by many of the
great manufacturing institutions, he
told of the pay envelopes sent out by
one institution with a slip announcing
that if Bryan was elected, it would be
the last pay envelopes the employee
uunI1ld raaaiun a oCl-oH hot II
would think of an employer who held
club or revolver on his employee and
threatened him in case he did not vote
as directed. Would not all unite in de-
nouncing such threat. Is not the
threat of loss of employment and the
following suffering and distress of his
loved ones just as great a threat and
just as dastardly.
He asked why the trusts were all
clamoring for Taft, was it because
they feared Bryan would appoint
friends of the people rather than of the
trusts on the supreme bench The
speech was a grand appeal to all the
nobler instincts of man. In closing he
predicted success for Vim. j Bryan the
greatest leader who has come up in
generation.
Then man in the audience jumped
to his feet and proposed three cheers
for VIM. j. Bryan and the response
that followed gave lie to the republi-
can claims of apathy. Apathy isn't the
feature of this campaign, the feature of
this campaign is the deep resentment
of the people at the methods of the
monev mower. tn control tho aIaetion

NEEDED THE WARNING.

For the first TIME in many years the
youngsters were respectable in their
Halloween pranks Saturday night.
The chief Of police gave notice and the
newspapers warned the people that
rowdyism would be severely dealt with.
The chief said there would be no dis
tinction made or any partiality shown,
and any and all would be arrested. The
threat was not given out as hot air, I"
but there was a determination back of
it to carry it into effect The result
was pretty satisfactory. Ithas been the
custom heretofore for the children to
begin soaping windows week in adj
vance, of Halloween Last week there
was very little soap used at any time.
A walk through the city Sunday morn
ing showed that there were clean
windows in most every section of town.
Very little property was carried away.
The suppression of this abominable
practice will meet the approval of every
good citizen II should have been
broken up before satan invented it. A
few arrests and imposing of fines each
year viii soon do away with such
vandalism You have right to cause
the arrest of anyone carrying off your
property at any other time of the year
aud you also have the same right on
Halloween. 1t is thievery pure and

DEATH OF GEO. H. LON BARD.

On Saturday morning at o'clock,
October 31st, 1908, Geo. H. Lombard
passed away at the home of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. j L. Sargent, at 903 Franklin
street. This good man had lived far
beyond the allotted age of man and his
excellent health and rugged constitu-
ton, gave promise of much longer
life, but two weeks ago he was taken
sick with severe cold and this brought
on complications which, little by little,
Slapped away his strength until he quiet
ly dropped into that long sleep that
knows no awakening.
Geo. Ii. Lombard was born at Reeds
field, Me-, in 1925, where his boyhood
days were spent. Ia 1852 at Biddeford,
Me he was united in marriage to Mary
Jane Kimball and three years later they
came to Wisconsin to reside, locating
at Stockton They lived there over fifty
years and in 1906 came to Wausau to
make their home in order that they
might be nearer their children, and
since, they have made their home with
Mr.. and Mrs j. l.. Sargent.
During his life in Wausau, he made
many friends who held him in very
high esteem, and though nearly 81 years
of age, he was quite active and this
with his proverbial kindly disposition
gave emphasis to that which had been
told of him, that his life had been an
energetic one filled with kindly deeds
He is survived by his wife, three
daughters and three sons, viz; Mrs. j.
L. Sargent and Mrs. James Young, of
this city; Mrs. Albert Blaisdell, of Chi
cago John Lombard, of Dakota; Fred
Lombard, of Alberta, Canada, and
Frank Lombard, of Wausau.
The funeral services took place this
Monday afternoon at 2 O'Clock, from
the home, the Rev. F. H. Brigham Off
ciating. The remains were laid to rest
in Pine Grove cemetery.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Wausau 5, Grand Rapids 10. The
Wausau team outweighed about eight
pounds to the man Put up game fight
against Grand Rapids Saturday. The
Rapids played the old style of football
with the exception of few forward
passes. Wausau lost the game by their
inability to hold the line smashes and
heavy tackle plays. When Wausau had
the ball they kept the Rapids team
guessing with long and short forward
passes.
The Wausau spirit of "gamenessn
showed up strongly when Wausau held
the Rapids on their one yard line. The
first scoring was made by Grand Rapids
on safety. A little while later they
scored a touch down but failed to kick
goal. Then the Wausau team got
mad and inside OF ten minutes they
had touch down. In that time Wau-
sau put up the best exhibition of often
sive football that has been shown this
season.
The manager of the Grand Rapids
team said that he was surprised at the
strength of the Wausau team Ia spite
of their weight they were the only ones
that broke up the tackle plays of the
Rapids team. Wausau was also the
first team that has scored against Grand
Rapids.
Grand Rapids managed to score again
in the second half and this time they
kicked goal, making the total score

MODEL ONLY LOOKED THE PART,
Was Different When He Came Down
from the Pedestal.

The model had sat, with the neces-
sary rests, for three hours in one
position, the pose of a splendid sena-
tor of Washington, elegant, sristocrat-
ic. He had a fine head. He was
quite noted for that. He had been
model for illustrations of many heroic
figures.
But the model with the fine head
wore about the rustiest suit of clothes
you ever saw. His cuffs were frayed.
His collar stayed up with difficulty, 1t
was so old.
When the three hours were up he
gave a sigh of relief, for posing is
hard work. There is no work harder.
The artist drew forth his wad and
paid him.. The model thanked him
with a grateful smile.
HE is down and out" said the art
list when he had gone. He hadn

And he looked at the picture he
had drawn of him as splendid sen
stor of Washington with complacent
smile of satisfaction with the fine
dignity of it.
