FOREST FIRES.

The eastern and southeastern por-
lions of the county have suffered con-
slderably the past ten days or more
from forest fires. Considerable dam
age to growing timber has resulted.
In the town of Elderon and at sew
eral points along the Rosholt branch,
fires have been eating their way
through forests. A considerable
amount of dry logs, cedar poles, etc.,
are piled up in the woods in that Sec
ton, and the owners have kept men
doing sentinel duty, watching the
property.
At various points along the c. & n.
W. Ry., between this city and Eland
Jet. fires have been burning for sever
al days. The largest fires have been
along the track between Hatley and
Norrie and around the latter village.
A fire has swept around the western
and southern shores of lake Go-to-it,
destroying green forest on the south
shore. Between the village and May
flower lake fierce fire burned on
both sides of the Birnamwood road,
shutting off traffic for hours.
Between Norrie and Hatley is big
spruce swamp, two miles in width.
In this swamp is trestle over sink
holes, ETC., about half mile in length.
Fires have been burning at both ends
and the Northwestern has crew of
men on duty night and day watching
this trestle. Torpedos are placed on
the track by night to warn engineers
to run slowly.

FOURTH OF JULY.
Very Little Noise and Sane Celebra-
ton Generally.

SO far as fire cracker noise andhfire
works display went, the observance
OF independence day this year was
the quietest ever known in Wausau
since its organization. This was
largely due to the mayors edict, and
to the fact that everything is as dry
as powder, and most everyone real
lied what fire would mean at this
time.
The town was almost deserted in
the afternoon. Many people went
out of the city to spend the day with
relatives and acquaintance in other
places, while picnics, ETC., took others
out of town.
The German societies carried out
the arrangements of their picnic as
published in this paper. Led by a
band the societies marched in body
to the shooting park. Most of those
In attendance carried lunch baskets
and ate their supper on the grounds,
remaining until toward dusk. The
program consisted of band music,
reading of the Declaration of hide
pendence by Ed. Ringle, an address
in English by Atty. f. P. Regner and
one in German by Louis Marchetti.
There were games for the women and
children and an enjoyable time was
had by everyone. The day was an
ideal one for such an event.
The street railroad company con-
Quoted picnic at Rothschilds park
which was largely attended, every car
to and from the park being damned
with people. Various forms of
amusement was participated in by
the throngs, and in the evening
fireworks display added to the fea-
lures of the program.
Another large crowd attended the
picnic at Riveryiew park, and spent
the day. The proprietor NJ c. Thorn,
had an interesting program of games
arranged for the little ones, which
furnished amusement for the older
people as well.
The German M. E. church had
picnic at the fair grounds, which was
attended by nearly every member of
the congregation.
Numerous country picnics, too,
drew from the city.
Fewer accidents are reported than
ever before and none of serious ma
ture occurred.
Crowds of sports, or rather people
with sporting blood in their veins,
hung around places on Third street
to hear che news from Reno reported
round by round. They were for the
most part a dissatisfied lot, especial
ly when the final report came.
Many Wausau families spent the
day at summer cottages on the lakes.
The district picnic of the M. W. A.
was held in Merrill, but aside from
the delegates of the local lodges, few
attended from this city.
A spark from spinning wheel at
Rothschilds park last night set a
quantity of fire works off. Roman
candles, sky rockets, tlib fiabs and
dough dogs began shooting in every
direction, causing a scattering of the
crowd.

WISCONSIN RIVER, MONTH OF
JUNE.

The following is report of the
stage of the Wisconsin river for the
month of June:
The highest stage of the river for
the month of June was 4 feet on the
I'd; the lowest was 1.3 feet on June
Both. The o mark of the guage is on
a level with the floor of the guard
locks and should the water reach the
0 mark there could be no water pass
down the Wisconsin river except
through the flume of the McEachron
mill. The average stage of the water
was 2.56 feet, which was regulated by
the gates at the reservoir dams up the
river There were twenty-five clear
days during June and five cloudy, or
partly cloudy. BY clear days is meant
when the sky is covered less than half
the time, with clouds, or when the
sky is covered only part of the day.
The rainfall for the month of June
was 0.95 of an inch; for May, 1.48
inches, and for April, 1856 inches,
making in all 100 inches since April

MAN MANGLED.

The remains of Geo. Orlikowski of
Stevens Point, were found near the
depot at Ringle yesterday morning,
The man had been run over by one OF
the night limited trains and was lit
orally torn to shreds, pieces of flesh
being scattered along the track for
hundreds of feet. A train crew made
the discovery in the morning and
when Hatley was reached, the coroner
in this city was notified and Mr..
Dickens went down, and made an in
vestigation.
He learned that the man left this
city Saturday afternoon and got as
far as Kelly. There he spent some
time around saloons and then walked
to Gallon. At the latter place he Sc
cured more liquor and then started to
walk down the railroad track towards
Ringle. That was the last seen of
him.
He was twenty-five years of age and
unmarried. His brother came up
from Stevens Point and removed the
remains to his home city for burial

OLDEST RESIDENT.
Most Aged Woman in This Part OF
the State Dies.

Mrs. Mary Glowoczesk died yester'
day at her home, los Randolph street
of old age. She had been ill four days
Her last illness was due largely &c
the oppressive heat of the past three
weeks. Mrs. Glowoczeski enjoyed the
distinction of being the oldest person
in this section of the state and per-
haps of the entire state. She was
born in German Poland, Feb. 25, 1873,
and was therefore one hundred and
twelve years, four months and ten
days old when she expired. She came
to this city thirty-two years ago.
For a person of her age she was well
preserved. She was able to move
about the house without aid until
recently. Her eyesight was so good
that she could read without the aid
of glasses. She claimed that she
could remember distinctly the Napo-
leonic wars, but this memory of those
events was probably largely from
hearsay, for she was very young
when the Little Corporal stirred up
Europe.
Her husband died few years ago,
but she is survived by fifty-three
other relatives. These are three chill
dren; twenty grand children; twenty
five great grand children and five
great, great grand children.
The funeral will be conducted to-
morrow morning from st. Michael's
church. Rev. Fir. L. Slicz will Off
ciate.

BASE BALL CHAT.

The Wausau team has hardly been
holding its own the past few weeks,
owing to the other teams playing
stronger game. The team will not
return home until July II, when Red
Wing comes here. Between now and
then Wausau will contest with La
Crosse and Winona.
Since Brautegam has been added
to TIE team, Roland has been playing
the aench. The former is a fast field
er and can play either an inield or
outtield position. He is not a Ty.
Cobb with the stick.
Fennell, the new pitcher, has not
made much Of an impression. He
has been throwing an in and out ball
lin to the plate and out to the fence.
Dunbar got his worst pounding of
the season on Thursday last, Roches-
ter securing IL hits off him but at
that he lost out by only one score,
the hits being well scattered.
Eau Claire at present looks like the
strongest team in the bunch, yet there
is nothing certain in base ball and it
may go down the toboggan slide at
any time. The team has been
strengthened by the return of Russ
Bailey to center field.
Duluth, it appears, can't get out of
the cellar, and may win the basement
flag this year.

Therefore he resolved TO set up what
he termed "a provisional self-goyern-

they desired to have it.
Next morning the contract was
read and explained in open Council
and then, after more speeches, in
which they congratulated themselves
upon securing my valuable services,
they all signed-with their thumb

In the afternoon / took the train
for another Council of the Cheyennes,
sixty miles distant. / drove out to it
in the evening from the village of
Bessie and was accompanied by the
interpreter and Two Babies. The
latter was so named because at his
birth he was big enough for two. This
characteristic he has preserved, inso-
much that he is as big as a smoke
house and his side of the carriage
sagged to the ground. He was simply
clad in shirt of incredible size that
fitted him like sausage skin and
vast pair of black pants. His hair
was plated into two tails that were
ornamented with pieces of fur and
hung over his ears. His head was
bare and his moccasions were beaded.
He was a mountain of good nature
and | am glad to have met him. Our
driver was Texas boy. We were
passing through the most wonderful
farming country that have ever seen.
For miles in all directions were great
fields of ripe grain and rank corn with
an occasional cotton field. The
houses were surrounded by groves and
orchards and the barns were large and
new. One of the farmers, the boy in
formed me, had forty thousand bush
els of grain last year. SIS he white

The Cheyenne camp was an inter-

than mile along the Washita river.
My experience there was much the
same as at the Arapahoe camp. And

The Rome of Genus.

Few persons who use the phrase
Like the rope of Genus" to denote
profltless labor know the significance
of the expression or its great an
tiquity. "The Rope of Genus" was
the name of a picture painted by
Polygnotus, a distinguished Greek
who died in the fifth century B. c,
h is reputed first to have given life,
character and expression to painting.
According to Pliny he opened the
mouth and showed the teeth Of his
figures, and he was the first to paint
women figures with transparent dra.
peries,
Genus was a poor but industrious
Greek who extravagant wife spent
money as fast as he could earn It, and
he related his troubles to his friend
the painter. Polygnotus thereupon
painted the picture OF a man weaving
a rope of straw, while behind him
stood a donkey eating the rope as
fast as it w7s woven. 1t Is pleasant
to relate Z the silent lesson had
the desired effect upon the wife OF
Genus and that it was through her
subsequent frugality and thrift that
Genus ultimately rose to position OF
great prosperity.
