GEO. HART RESIGNS.

Believing that a change of scenes
and long rest will do him more good
than anything else, Geo. Hart official
court reporter for this, the Sixteenth
judicial circuit, has rendered his
resignation. He has been succeeded
by Walter A. Evers, who for the past
year or more has served as deputy.
The work of an expert stenographer,
(and there are few, if any, better
than Mr.. Hart, everything consid-
ered,) is among the most confning
and nerye-straining of any known.
After taking care of the work of
this circuit for fully fifteen
years without any let up, Mr.,
Hart began to feel its effects.
He took two ocean voyages, and last
year spent the entire summer in
England. He planned another trip
for this winter, got as far as Chicago,
When he was taken ill and re-
turned home. He is now, we are
pleased to say, almost fully recovered,
but will not engage in any activities
until he is sure there will be no set
back. He intends to leave the city in.
a. few weeks for points on the Pacific
coast and Western Canada and viii
dispose of his property here. he will
be accompanied by Mrs. Hart and her
mother, Mrs. Harriet Dopp.
Mr.. Hart has been a resident of
Wausau since 1885. For many years,
until the Sixteenth judicial circuit
was created, he was deputy court re-
porter for the Seventh district, Judge
Chas. M. Webb being the presiding
Judge. When the legislature created
the Sixteenth circuit in 1892 and c.
V. Bardeen was appointed judge, Mr..
Hart was made official court reporter.
In 1898 Mr.. Bardeen was elevated to
the supreme bench and was succeeded
by w. G. Silverthorn and Mr.. Hart
continued as reporter, and was reap
pointed last year when Judge A. H.
Reid succeeded Mr.. Silverthorn.
The many friends of Mr.. Hart and
family trust that after his rest they
will see fit to return to Wausau and
make this their home.

SUCCESSFUL SUNDAY JOURN-
ALISM.

For several years the newspaper
readers of the West have watched
with interest the unique experiment
embodied in the Sunday magazine of
the Chicago Record-Herald. The
time has now come when it is no
longer an experiment, but sound
and prospering success. Nothing else
of the kind in newspaperdom can
compare for a moment with this re-
markable supplement.
The Sunday magazine of The Rec
ord Herald is real magazine, full of
stories and articles by the best living
writers, illustrated by eminent artists
and carrying on its cover each week
masterpiece of color work. It's pres
tige is now such that it can compete
with the big monthlies for the most
costly fiction in the market, some
times paying as high as $4,000 for a
single serial, as it did for Conan
Doyle's "Sir Nigel 1t captured
Anthony Hopes ''Sophy of Kravonia"
when every other magazine in the
country wanted the story. The most
popular tales of humor now appearing
in the United States-those of the in
imitable Shorty McCabe-have been
published exclusively in the Sunday
{ Magazine of the Record Herald from
the start.
Its high literary quality has been
steadily maintained and has ''won
out" You will find one of the best
novels of the day running serially in
its columns at the present moment.
1t is not strange that hundreds of
thousands of readers prefer The Sun
day Record Herald to all other papers.

We were shown yesterday letter

permitted to rest in quiet, even if
some of the liUing are not allowed the
same privilege.
Sheriff Barnard showed us some

SECOND OFFENSE.

"a burnt child breads fire. is an
old saying which does not apply to
Dave Rousseau of this city, as will be
seen by the following story of events:
On Wednesday night last, Henry
Neitzke of Whitehall, Wis, who had
been working in a logging camp near
Merrill, came to that city and had a
check cashed for S2O.15. He fell in
with Andy Garland, a former acquain-
tance, who introduced him to VIM.
Berhance and Dave Rousseau. They
said they would escort him to the
depot, but instead took him to park.
When they had reached a secluded
spot, Rousseau jumped behind Neitzke
and seized and firmly held both of the
mans arms while the other two
robbed him. They threatened to
shoot him if he made any outcry.
Neitzke, when he was liberated, noti-
fed the police, and at midnight the
three men were arrested in a restau-
rant while they were getting away
with beef roast. The next morn
ing they confessed their guilt and
signitied a willingness to plead guilty
at once. Judge Reid was called to
Merrill Friday and the trio were
sentenced to terms of four years each
in Waupun prison.
To show that Rousseau does not re-
spect the truthfulness of the old
adage used in the beginning of this
story, will relate another incident:
In the fall of 1906 bartender in a
saloon in the northern part of this
city was surprised one morning when
he opened the saloon to find two
young fellows inside. They had
gained entrance through a broken
door or window. He was more sur
prised when they started after him
with stove poker and he did not
tarry long to argue with them. The
two men made their escape, but the
bartender recognized them as Dave
RousSeu and Paul Hove The latter
was caught shortly after and was
sentenced to term of four years in
the Green Bay reformatory. Rousseau
was never accused of having pursued
any literary studies, but he evidently
had heard of Victor Hugo's story of
Javert's pursuit of Jean Vatican,
and hoW the latter had secreted him.
self in the Paris sewers. The large
s TT. sewer in the Stinchfield creek
bed had just been built, and Rousseau
hid in this for several days, as was
afterward learned, and then left the
Icity. A year or so afterward he sur
rendered himself to the sheriff, and
on Nov. is, 1907, was sentenced to
serve a term of fourteen months in
the Green Bay reformatory. A bad
egg will never be anything else.

ODD COLLECTION.

Thos. Gould, residing at 5l3 Grand
Ave, has, during his tifty-seven years
of existence on the top side of the
eartn, taken great interest in relics,
and has an odd and varied collection.
The most interesting of the lot is a
sackful of old coins of this and other
countries. The ones of this countrys
coinage have some value, but those of
foreign powers are almost yalueless,
except to fill up collection.
Prior to and for some time after the
Centennial exposition was held, Mr..
Gould was street Car conductor in
the city of Philadelphia. That was
before the day of the motor car-the
car which the Chinaman, in express
ing his wonderment said, "No push-e,
no pull-e, but go-e like h-l-e."
Neither was it necessary to call out
the state militia in those days in
order to operate cars, as is being done
in the city of brotherly love at this
hour. There was graft in those days,
though, as well as now, for Tom says
that in order to hold a job with the
street car company it was necessary
to have a ''stand-in'' with council
man, the councilmen having pull
with the company because of fayors
in granting franchises.
At the time of the Centennial a
great many foreigners visited the ex-
position and in consequence consider
able foreign money in, n,some way got
into the hands of Philadelphians,
who sometimes through mistake
would offer coins to car conductors
for fare Tom always accepted them
and kept them, making up the fare
from his own pocket. Besides collect
ing all foreign coins he had his
weather eye out for old and odd
American pieces, and also at one time
had quite lot of ''shinplasters"
which circulated at the time of the
civil war. When he landed in Wau-
sau he was possessed of collection of
1000 of what were known as the
Eagle pennies. These he has disposed
of.
The oldest coin he has today is an
English piece of the coinage of 1923.
1t is silver piece of about the size of
a dime. On one side is the coat of
arms of England; on the other the
head of the king and the inscription,
"Georgius Del Gratia Rex" His old
est American coin is 1c piece of the
coinage of 1894. 1t is as large as a
half dollar. Notwithstanding its age
its markings are quite plain. Stamped
on the milled edge are the words.
Zone hundred for one dollar" He
has number of other pennies OF the
same size, but differently stamped,
the Oldest of which was coined in
lsl0.-just 100 years ago. He also
has a half-penny which was struck
from the mint in 1905. This is Of
nearly the size of the old z-cent piece
which was in circulation quite a num-
ber of years ago. He has one other
copper coin so old that its date can
not be read.
His Oldest foreign piece Of money is
Spanish coin of the year 1872. He
has another coined in l79S. Both
have the heads of King Carolus
stamped on them. His next Oldest
piece is an Indian copper of the year
1888. On its face are the words
Neier Indie One, little copper,
is stamped, ''Republica Peruana, "
indicating that it is Peruvian coin
This is neat little piece, its edge
being considerably higher than the
back or face sides, protecting them
from wear. He has many other cop

WILL FIGHT AGAINST
DIVISION OF EMMETT
Residents of that Town Hold Special
Election to Determine Attitude
Of Its Residents.

The town of Emmett will not be di-
vided at the present time if the resi-
dents of that town can have their
way about it. Opposition to the ac-
tion Of the county board last fall in
detaching fifteen sections from that
town and giving it to the town of
Mosinee has existed right from the
first, and it was due to this agitation
that it was brought up again in the
January meeting, which resulted in
vote being taken sustaining the
former action of the board.
While there apparently appeared
to be no other alternative than to ac-
cept the action as final, still there
was disposition on the part of the
Emmett people to test the constitu-
tionality of the boards action. This
led to the holding of special cleo
tion at Halder, Monday, to ascertain
the feeling among the tax payers and
whether they were in favor or not of
the town taking the matter into the
courts. The vote stood 13 against
and "A for, indicating that the in
habitanIs of the town were decidedly
opposed to having the town divided.
Lawyers are of the opinion that this
effort on the town would be an ex-
pensiye and useless one, as, even if
the lower court did uphold the towns
case, the supreme court would re-
verse the decision judging from de-
cisions in similar cases. 1t is said
that in the case in question the SUI
preme court has held that the county
board has the power to change the
boundary lines of towns. However,
the outcome will be watched with
interest Mosinee Times.

GETS AFTER WAUSAU.
State Board OF Health Will Maintain
Quarantine il Necessary.

MADISON, Wis, Feb. 25.-If in
the future the city of Wausau shall
fail to quarantine infectious dis
eases, the state will take charge
of the situation and charge the
is raging there. The situation has
reached an acute stage but the author
tiles, spurred to action by the state
health board, is now taking turn for
the better, but not without stubborn
opposition to quarantine regulations
on the part of many physicians and
city authorities. The situation at
Wausau is one of the worst ever re-
ported TO the state board. For four
years authorities had not quarantined
a single case OF contagious disease, and
that an epidemic was ayerted for SO
long was due only to good luck.
The above is a dispatch sent
broadcast and published in the var
ious metropolitan dailies of our state
on Saturday. There is no question
but what the quarantine law has been
very feebly enforced in Wausau up to
within week past. But that the
state board of health is doing any,
thing in the matter is a false alarm.
The secretary of the state board of
health came here upon request, to
stir up matters, but the time allCted
him was taken up in telling of the in
efficiency of controlling disease in our
armies; of the ravages of tuberculosis
and the spreading of disease by the
housefy.
If there is any truth in the above
article why in thunder didn't the
gentleman read the riot act to our
people? There are no flies on Wau-
sau people at present, especially when
mercury is cavorting down among the
twenties, so, why talk about flies.
There is a time TO talk about that.
1t is scarlet fever that is worrying
our people and they are getting
mighty ugly about it.
