MRS. R. D. SAWYER.

Clara, wife of Rufus d. Sawyer,
died at her home, los S. First Ave,
Thursday at midnight. The cause of
death was cancer, she having been
sufferer for nine months past An
operation was performed on her last
January, but it gave only temporary
relief.
Deceased was born in Ripon in 1861,
where she lived for three years, her
parents moving to Wausau in 1864.
Fifteen years later she was married
to r. ID. Sawyer, who survives her,
as do two children Grover and Miss
Irma. The son is a resident of Mil
waukee and was not present at his
mothers death, the family being un-
able to reach him by wire. She is
also survived by her mother Mrs.
Eliza Frax and by one sister, Mrs.
Geo. Lanning of Charlton, Ia, the
latter arriving in time TO see her sis
ter before she expired.
The funeral services were conducted

ACTION DEFERRED.

The mayor, city treasurer and the
city's eighteen aldermen appeared in
circuit court Saturday afternoon for
the purpose of showing cause why they
should not be permanently enjoined
from transferring any more money
from the city hall fund. Judge Reid
informed them, and announced to the
spectators present, that by stipulation
of the attorneys interested liz the case,
the matter would not be taken up
until Saturday next. There is not, as
we understand, any disposition on the
part of the city's representatives to
fight the Injunction. The sum of
Sc, 600 which was recently directed by
the council TO be taken out of the city
hall fund and placed in another was
delayed until the injunction was is
sued, because it was expected that
such move would be made. The
fu.ld is short $4,000, but this can be
replaced possibly by having TO borrow
some money for short time.
Judging from some talk we have
heard on the street among business
men, the end of the city hall matter
is not in sight.

A BAD START.

Jos. Hoffman, son of Hubert Hoff-
man, who conducts saloon in the
town of Maine northwest of the city,
was arrested Friday night on COM
plaint of his father. The young man
is accused by his parents OF stealing
$l65. He was brought into court
Saturday morning and was bound over
for trial. The son is said TO have
acknowledged the theft, but claims
that his father oyerestimates the
amount. He is also accused of robbing
the Reynolds home on the old Curtis
farm about six weeks ago. At that
time diamond ring, watch, re-
yolyer and some money were reported
missing. Following this robbery
young Hoffman spent some time in
Milwaukee, and while there is said to
have associated with a fellow who
had just been liberated from prison.

LUMBER FIRE.
A Spark Sets Fire to the Piles in the
Wisconsin Box Company's Yard

Last Wednesday forenoon the fire
department was called out to a fire
which had started in the Wisconsin
Box and Lumber company's yard in
the southeastern part of the CITY,
When discovered the fire was well
under way and before it could be ex-
tinguished, four piles of lumber were
destroyed. Had the fire started at
extreme south end of the yard instead
of at the east side of the center with
strong wind, it might have proven
disastrous. AS it was, the loss, at
the most will reach probably $1,000,
which is fully covered by insurance.
Wausaus daily placed the loss at
$4,000 which was fully $4,000 out of
the way. Just how the fire originated
is not known, but the very dry condi-
tion of everything at the time,
fire a spark from passing locomotive
might have started the blaze.

A PLEASANT WAY TO CURE
CATARRH.

Poor deluded victims,
Continually sprinkling and spraying
and stomach dosing.
What are you doing it for?
Trying to Kill the catarrh germs?
Might just as well try to kill cat
with fresh milk.
Sticking piece of chewing gum in
the upper left hand corner of the
right ear would slaughter just as
many germs.
You can't kill the germs that cause
catarrh unless you get where they
are
You can get where the germs are
by breathing Hyomei, the powerful
yet soothing antiseptic, which is pre-
pared especially to kill catarrh germs.
Just breathe it in, that's all. 1t
gives joyful relief in five minutes. 1t
is guaranteed by W w. Albers to
cure catarrh, or money back.

OUR WEAKNESSES.
Congressman Morse Points Out a Few
to Wausau Audience.

Conservation of our Natural Re-
sources was the theme of Congress
man e. A. Morse, who spoke before a
representative assemblage of Wausau
people last Wednesday evening ia the
NJ. E. church. From start to finish
Mr.. Morse held the attention of his
audience, and to many who have not
made study of the subject he inn
parted much information. He treated
the subject under four heads, Waters,
Lands, Forests and Minerals.
Too little attention has been given
to the water powers and drainage
areas of the country, which mean so
much to the future of the country.
As greater advantage in securing
cheaper power, lighting, heating, etc,
he is in favor of having the rivers,
and the reservoirs regulating their
flow of water, under the control of
the state or nation.
As to the reclaiming of the arid
lands of the west and southwest, Mr..
Morse told what the United states
reclamation service is doing in bring
ing millions of acres of hitherto
worthless lands into use for agricul-
ture. Some of the achievements OF
the service has been the building OF
large dams for the storage of water
for irrigating purposes.
In the matter of forests, Mr.. Morse
told what is we'll known fact: That
our forests have been destroyed in
the past without any provisions being
made for the needs of future genera
tions. This is one of the most serious
things that confronts the attention
of our government today. Within
the past few years the forestry service
has set aside thousands of acres foI
forest reserves, and in a way is follow
ing the plan of some foreign countries
in providing permanent forests
Next TO the waste of timber the
misuse and extravaganza in our min
eral resources comes next in import
ance. Especially has there been q
great waste in coal and coal region
products At the rate coal, oil and
natural gas are being consumed al
present, each will be exhausted in 2
few generations from now.
The conservation OF our resources
should receive more attention from
our congress and from the people
generally than it has in the past, Is
the end that the generations who fol
low US may not be pauperized.

BANK ROBBERS.
The Two Fellows Held in the County
Jail Are Tough Looking
Characters.

Jas. Kennedy and Ed. Rand, th'
the latter now having another Johr
Hancock, were brought into courl
Saturday for examination, they beinE
charged with the attempted robbery
Iof the Athens bank. The district at
torney announced that +. Genrich
whom the suspected men have en-
gagged to defend them, was out of the
city, and he asked for an adjournment
for one week, which was granted.
The men were brought into the
court house singly, JAS. Kennedy, the
policeman, escorting Jas. Kennedy
the suspect, and Sheriff John Sell
having the other man in tow. There
was twenty-five or thirty people await
ing their arrival, out of curiosity to
see what kind of looking roosters they
are and the impression gained of them
is not very favorable.
Kennedy, whom it is supposed has
a long criminal record is man of per
haps fifty years rs-his hair is turning
grey. He is of medium weight and
stature and has bad looking scar
on the left side of his jaw having the
appearance of an old bullet wound.
He was attired in a dark grey suit.
When arrested, IA calibre Colts re-
yolyer was found On his person, alid
he is supposed to be the one who
handled the nitroglycerine which
blew the large door off the safe and
wrecked the building.
The other man, who gave the name
of Ed. Rand, when arrested in Green
wood, looks to be not over thirty years
of age. Whether or not it is because
we usually take dislike to stranger
accused of a crime, one can invariably
find some flaw in the persons make
up. Reasoning along that line, we
would say that this young fellow is
one whom we would not let walk be-
hind us on a dark night if we knew
it. He had fresh wounds in his back
when arrested, presumably received
from the guns in the hands of the
Milan men, who shot at the robbers.
He has evidently not been long in the
business. He is not as mach at ease
under scrutiny as is the older man.
Should the men not be convicted
they will be re-arrested and taken to
Clark county to answer to the charge
of burglarizing several places in
Greenwood. But there is little doubt
that they will be convicted on the
Athens charge, and it is quite possible
may plead guilty. At any rate they
can be convicted on the charge of
having burglars tools in their posses
sion.

OUT In THE WEST.

DEAR PILOT:
Since January |, 1909, | have beer
travelling on the road in the West ano
South and / thought, my friends
might be getting anxious about me
and perhaps think it advisable to
send out relief expedition, hence
these few notes. 1 am in company
with James J. Murphy, of Oshkosh
We went to Chicago and made large
purchase of jewelry and notions. We
first wended our way to Yulsa, Okla,
and during January and February we
did an extremely good business in
that state. 1t was not any too cool
at any time while there to be about
making a canvass. There was NO
snow, but it was damp and foggy
every morning, which is infinitely
worse to my way of thinking, who
has resided in the dry atmosphere of
Marathon county, where snow is
plenty in the winter and the air,
most of the time, free from humidity.
Oil wells are getting as plentiful in
northern Oklahoma as the hair on
an Esquimau's head; some are money
makers and some are not. Seeking
oil is good deal like seeking gold or
any other kind of metal perhaps one
out of every l 900 is lucky II he gets
the money back which he has in
vested.
We went down into New Mexico; of
course, coming from a lumber country
| am naturally attracted to manufac-
turing institutions of that nature,
and was especially taken up with the
American Lumber company's plant at
Albuquerque. This company has one
of the largest saw mills and sash, door
and blind factories and lumber yards
in the West. Its timber, mostly
Norway pine, is located l75miles south
and is shipped in by cars daily.
Albuquerque is one of the finest
cities in New Mexico, and has popu-
lation of %, 200.
The state is ''dry'' one, in fact
the dryest, in many respects | ever
saw. There is no rain there nine
months of the year, and no grass
grows nor anything else, excepting
wild soap bushes and cactus.
Down in Arizona it is hot enough
for all practical purposes, too much
SO for comfort and hardly enough to
cook meals. All of the past summer
the thermometer showed 80 to los de-
grees night and day. The sweltering
kept up until about Sept. 10Th, then
a relief came. Arizona has some nice
cities. Bisbee has $4,000 population
and is famous for its copper mines,
having twelve of the largest in the
west. Douglas has l,500 population,
Three large smelters help materially
in keeping everybody busy. Globe
has population of $4,000
In California they certainly do
raise the fruit. 1t is there in abund-
ance and right from the trees
and vines it is delicious. | have
have often wished could dump into
Wausau several car loads of peaches,
pears, oranges, apricots, lemons, blue
plums, grapes and say TO my friends,
"help yourselves just TO show them
what fresh California fruit tastes
like. Almond and other nut trees
also abound in plenty.
am enjoying leng business trip
and while l have passed through
many states and encountered many
climates, still feel that Wisconsin
is good enough for me, the only COM
plaint is that it is too cold for COM
fort.

Yours truly,
