SELLS BUSINESS.

The Montgomery Hardware Co. has
sold its stock to the VIM. Sell Hard
ware Co. and as soon as the stock has
been inyentoried it will be taken pos
session of by the new firm. When
Mr.. Montgomery retires from the firm
it will be to embark in another line of
business. He will devote his whole
time in the future to buying pulp
wood for paper mills and will supply
all or nearly all used by the Wausau
Paper Mills Co. and for mills in Kat
kauna. He will also purchase pulp
wood lands, and his business will be
mainly on both the ST. Paul and
Northwestern Rvs. Mr. Montgomery
has been in the hardware business
twenty-eight years, six. years of which
time he has been located in his pres
ent store. About five years ago he
suffered a severe fire loss, but in a few
weeks time was ready for business
again. He has been active in the
work of the Merchants association
and a very valuable member. He
retires from business because he be-
lieveS the new field he has chosen
offers good opportunities and at the
same time will afford more rest than
TIC SCto dO plCSCllO.
The VIM. Sell Hardware Co. was or
ganized about eighteen months ago,
since which time the firm has been
conducting store. VIM. Sell has
grown up in the business. He was
for a great many years employed by
Mr.. Montgomery before starting in
business for himself
Mr.. Montgomery, who was formerly
located in the East came here in 1881.
after a correspondence with the late
j. NJ Smith, who informed him that
this place offered excellent opportuni-
ties. Friends in the East gave him a
letter of introduction to the late
Judge Palmer of Milwaukee, who was
buried yesterday, and Mr.. Palmer
in turn gave him a letter to 5. III. Al
ban, who was then located in Wausau-
After twenty-eight years OF successful
business. during which time he has
built up one OF the finest hardware
stores in the city. he feels that he has
grown up with Wausau. Since he has
been in business, five other firms have
been started by employees who have
graduated from his store.
III. j. Yost, who las been connected
with the firm, will enter into some
other line of business.

PURE WATER.

Several years ago the PILOT took up
the water question and told some very
plain truths about our supply. 1t
was severely criticised for saving
things which might hurt the city.
Some OF our best informed men felt
that before the works were put in
good condition and before pure,
wholesome water was furnished, it
would require an outlay of 100000 or
more. The new city hall was about
TO be erected at that time and other
public improvements made, but the
PILOT argued for pure, wholesome
water first and the improvements
afterwards. The Improvements were
dropped and the matter of furnishing
the patrons of the city water system
pure water and first class fire protec-
ton was commenced. Every endeayor
has been made to this end and If there
has been any failures, it can not be
laid at the door of the water commits
sion, but to scientific men who were
paid to come here and advise what
should be done in the matter. Four
teen very deep wells were driven and
connected with our system and this
was thought to be sufficient 10 fur
niSh all the water needed In our city:
later sixteen more were driven and
this 1t was thought was surely enough
for all requirements. When the
water was taken from the wells there
was no question about its purity, but
the supply has proved insufficient to
meet demands, and the old well has
been reSorted to fill the deficiency
The water of the old well and that
from the thirty drive wells are mixed
about half and half-Somewha after
the fashion of an apothecary's work
all the past winter and at the pres
eat time there is a taste and smell
about the water that is abominable.
This is due wholly to the mixture
of the old we'll water with the drive
well water. If the wells cannot do
any better than this, something else
will have TO be resorted to and the
matter should not be put off. IL
there is anything that will kin a city
it is bad tasting and bad smelling
water. Ne one will drink 1t and peo-
pie will go where they can get good
water.
Wausau and vicinity is blessed
with the very best water in the world
but there is enough iron in 1t to feed
a growth in our pipes. If it Is neces-
sary to put in tiltering plant let us
do 50. First Of all, let us have good
supply of pure water and plenty of
fire protection and the growth of the
city will take care of itself.
Perhaps the wells VIII furnish
supply sufficient for the city in wet
seasons, but the system Is Of little
use If it cannot do so continuously.

BASE BALL NOTES.

President John Elliott has sent out
TO all clubs in the league revised
schedule, making a change in certain
games to be played between the teams
of this city and Eau Claire. The lat
ter club is having considerable trouble
over park, and the club has found it
impossible to play at home on Mem
orial and Labor days. The schedule
has therefore been re-arranged to suit
existing circumstances. Two games
on each of the days mentioned will be
transferred to Wausau, making Eau
Claire the visiting team for all holt
day games, Memorial day, July 5 In
dependence day. and Labor day. In
exchange the series scheduled for this
city Aug. 81, Sept. /, 2, 3, will be
played in Eau Claire, making series
OF six games in that city. The bal
ance of the schedule remains as it was
originally printed. The first schedule
gave Wausau total of sixty games at
home; the revised schedule adds two
and takes four off, leaving fifty-eight.
Two practice games were played
with the Marathon City team Satur-
day and Sunday, Wausau of course
winning both in easy fashion. About
300 people turned out Sunday.

Wausau has been given Johnson,
Herman, poian and Stremmel by
Green Bay, Johnson has joined our
team, but there is Slight possibility

CHAIN YOUR DOGS.

The chief of police has appointed
VIM. Hadley official city dog catcher.
Mr.. Hadley went on duty this morn
ing and in four hours he rounded up
eleven dogs.
From now on he will travel DER the
city and impound every dog found
running loose. Mr.. Hadley has been
a dog fancier all his life, knows the
characteristics of CANNES and there is
not man in the city who can make
friends with timid dog better than
he.
People are now cleaning up their
lawns, planting gardens, etc, and this
is the time when rowing dogs can do
much harm to property. Every
property owner therefore ought to feel
grateful that we have an ordinance
forbidding the animals to run ct large.
They have no more right to run over
peoples gardens and lawns than has a
COW or horse.

SAVED LIFE.
Waterbury Man in Line for Carnegie
 Medal.

Roger Walsh, an employe of the Waterbury Clock company, living on Pearl street, may be candidate for a Carnegie medal for saving life, says the Waterbury Democrat. He was one of a crowd that was rushing for a troll lev car at Quassapaug the other eve- ming, and if there is wilder crowd than the kind of crowd stated it is not to be witnessed in the limits of this state. Just as the car was starting and when the conductor, if he had as many eyes as Argus. could not see all that was going on around him, man fell in front of the moving car. Walsh saw the man fall and ran to save him, for he failed to get a hold on the moving car. Just as he was about to place his hands on the prostrate form of tke man either the fender or the running board of the car struck his arm below the elbow and broke it. But he nevertheless pulled his man from in front of the car Iand then he reeled over in faint from pain and shock, and he was hoisted on board and brought to town.
