THE HARVEST
HOME FESTIVAL.
Annual Event OF the First Presbyterian
Church Great Success.

The Harvest Home Festival of the
First Presbyterian church, held in
this city last Sunday, was well at
tended and very much of a success.
The morning opened with a heavy
thunder storm, which kept up until
ten or eleven o'clock, and this kept
many away who had intended being
present. This was specially the case
from the various missions throughout
this district which were organized by
this church, and as the event was in
tended for the purpose of gathering
in the members from these various
missions and to review the work ac-
complished by each, it is to be re-
GREETED that it rained.
At $50 a. m. the Mems Organized
Bible class met in the parlors of the
church.
At 1890 regular services were held
at church. Rev. James NJ. Duer,
pastor, delivered a sermon, his theme
being "The Lord of the Harvest"
Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin Towards sing
ing added much to the enjoyment of
this service. At II o'clock the Sun
day school was held which was in
charge of the following officers: Supt.
of Main school, Arson II. Clark; Supt.
of intermediate school, Mrs. B. A.
Benson; Supt. of Junior school, Mrs.
Reeves; Supt. of Primary Mrs. Gill;
Supt. of Beginners, Miss Boiler.
The visitors accompanied by escorts
visited the various departments to
acquaint themselves with the meth
DDS of this well regulated school.
At 1:30 p. M. dinner was served in
the dining room for the visiting
friends and guests of the church at
which the session, board of trustees,
the executive committee and the
superintendent of each department of
the Sunday schools of the city, with
their wives and husbands were present.
At 2:45 p. M, in the auditorium of
the church, a Home Mission rally was
held which was in charge of the pas
tor, Rev. Duer. This consisted of a
representative from each church and
mission, who were on the platform to
give a report from the various fields
of Stratfosd, Aniwa, Edgar, Hogarty
Kelly, Rothschild, Trappe, Glandon,
West Side, Hull, Sherman street and
Russian school. There was in addi-
ton "reminiscences by Rev. JOS Brown
and excellent music at this service.
At 4:05 p. m. there was a light
luncheon served for those leaving for
home by teams. This was served by
the west side Ladies' Aid society.
The evening service was under the
sole control of the Christian Endeavor
societies, at which the following pro-

FINGER AMPUTATED.

E. d. Underwood, manager OF the
Sun Office, had the middle finger OF
his left hand amputated yesterday.
On Thursday evening he cut his finger
while using a carving knife. Going
to a shelf in the dark he poured onto
the cut what he supposed was peroxide
of hydrogen, an antiseptic. Next
morning he saw that the flesh of his
finger was blackened and burned, and
an investigation showed that he had
made a mistake and had poured car
bolic acid on the wound. The finger
was 50 badly burned and deadened
that amputation was found necessary.

The lovers OF music will be delight
ed to hear that Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin
Howard have returned to Wausau,
with view of making this their
permanent home. They have resided
here off and on for the last four or
five years. and year ago departed to
make their home in Denver, Col.
The high altitude affected the health
of Mrs. Howard and they were COM
PEELED to leave that section of our
country. They are very much at
tached to Wausau and its people and
it is now their intention to found
conservatory of music here, if sufficient
encouragement is given them to go
ahead with the enterprise. A large
enrolment of pupils and an interest
taken by our citizens in their musical
work will do much to encourage them.
Sergt. II. o. Shea of the ocular
army has been detailed by thewar de-
partment to spend some time in Wau-
sau in perfecting Co. G in regular
army work. Two nights in the week
he will conduct schools for general
instruction one being designated
for privates, the other for officers.
During the fall and winter months
officers of the regular army will visit
different cities wherein militia COM
panies are located, and carry out a
similar line of instruction, the idea
being to make the militia the equal
of the regulars in drill work. Several
such officers will be at work in Wis
consin at the same time.
The county candidates for office are
beginning to get busy. Town and
village meeting are being held and the
'truth about the political situation"
is being told. Inquiry elicits the in
| formation that the voters are listening
but not saying much, which means
something. This something will leak
out Nov. s. Up to then the candidates
will keep right on developing the
muscles of their right arms in hearty
handshakes. The game of politics
beats poker for excitement and
fascination.
| The Marathon County School of
Agriculture and Domestic Economy
opened yesterday morning with very
good attendance. The faculty con-
- ii
pal, f. Schumacher and Emma Con-
ley, were present and ready to carry
on strenuous year of work and hope
to accomplish a great deal for ouI
county.
Few people realize that they car
save so per cent by making wall paper
purchases at this time of the year
but it's so. See Callies' stock.

COMMITTED TO SOLICIT
FOR STOCKHOLDERS.
Idea is to Make Capital
Stock $4,000.

W. T. Lane, Esq, temporary chair
man Of the Americas Industrial De-
yelopment Company, acting under the
resolution adopted at the meeting last
week. has appointed the following
committee:
To solicit subscriptions to stock:
Messrs. E. B. Everett, J. w. SILVER,
c. ]. Clark, T. L. Bell, A. D. Gatewood
To prepare form of charter: Messrs.
F. P, Harold Thad.- Glover, Thomas
Gamble, ]. E. D. Ship.
The first committee is expected to
make sufficient canvass for sub
scriptions to stock to have an array
of names from which to select the in
corporators of the company. It is de-
sired to use the names of some twelve
or fifteen responsible and active bus5-
ness men and others in the petition for
a charter.
The general idea seems to be that
the petition for a charter should re-
cite that the company is to have a
capital stock of $4,000, with the priv
iiege of increasing up to $4,000
This would require that $1,000 be
paid in on the stock before the char
ter is secured, which would not be z
difficult matter.
The idea of issuing stock of the de-
nomination of SO appears to meet
with the most approval and the com.
mlttee on charter will probably SO
designate in the form that it will pre-
pare for submission at next meeting

any part of the system.
When the oatd opoison attacks

ture fails to throw off the accumulated

afflicted ceases to perform it's proper

The result is, complication upon com

even more serious Affections.
We honestly believe Rexall Mucu-

who made a long study of catarrh, and
his great success with this remedy

We want you if you are a sufferer

Use it with regularity and persistency
for a reasonable time, then if you are
not satisfied, come back and tell US,

will hand back to you every cent you
paid us. This is certainly the fairest
offer that anyone could make and
