DEATH OF EUGENE LEMMA.

Announcement of the death of Eu-
gene Leroy Lemma at his home at
430 Strongs avenue at IL o'clock Sat-
urday morning, June 4, 1910, came as
a thunderclap from clear sky. After
spending l6 days in Chicago, scaling
and inspecting lumber on the lake
front, Mr.. Lemma returned home on
May 26, suffering from what appeared
to be a severe cold, which affected his
heart. He was weak and indisposed
and was unable to sleep we'll or even
to lie down comfortably. He was
about the house every day, however,
and on Wednesday walked down town.
This morning he was sitting in the
dining room but became little
nervous and remarked to Mrs Lemma
that he would like TO sit by the front
parlor window and watch the people
60 by for awhile if she would pin back
the curtain. She assisted him but
noticed he sank back into the chair
heavily and seemed to breathe hard
as she fixed the curtain. Then he
asked her to bring footstool and re-
marked, sit seems as ii / am great
big man, but Pm not, am I?" After
few more words that indicated
queer feeling coming over him, he
sank back and did not move again
Mrs. Lemma was alone with him
when he died and could not even leave
him to get a glass of water. Because
of his helpless condition she was
afraid he might fall from the chair.
She finally snatched some pillows
from nearby chairs and tucked them
under his head, ran to window and
had message sent from the Pfiffner
residence to Drs. Rood. When help
arrived, however, he was unquestion-
ably dead, and probably had been so
from the time he last spoke.
The above is from Saturdays
Stevens Point Journal. Mr.. Lemma
was well known in this city and
county. He was born in Schotield on
the 22d day of May, 1859, and was
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. T. Lemma. He
resided here until grown to manhood,
and in 1888 went TO Stevens Point to
reside. He leaves wife and one son
and two brothers-F. E Lemma of

THEY ELoPED.

Bertha Brennenstein and Robert
Wood were arrested and taken off a
train at Grand Rapids last Tuesday
night, upon information furnished by
the sheriff of this county. The story
of events leading up to their arrest
runs thusly: The woman has been liv-
ing in one of the Ringle houses on
Fourth street with a man of the
name VIM. LaMonta. The latter was
arrested that day for intoxication,
and while he was confined in
the lookup thee woman planned
an elopement, it is said, with the man
found in her company in Grand
Rapids. She abandoned two children,
one three years old, and one six years
of age. The Humane society's atten-
tion was called TO the case, and the
two children were taken care of.
On Thursday a charge of abandon
ment was brought against the woman
and she was placed in jail to await an
examination. Wood was held also
Both of the parties were later dis
charged because of the relations exist
ing between LaMonta and the woman.
One of the children is descendent
of Ham. He is almost as black as the
proverbial raven. LaMonta, 1t Is said,
says the children are the woman's
sole property, but that he has exer-
cised fatherly care Of them.

TWO HOSE CARTS.

Additional apparatus for the Wau-
sau fire department arrived and was
unloaded from cars Saturday. 1t con-
slsts of two combination hose and
ladder trucks, which are also provided
with chemical tanks and extinguish-
ers. They are of new, improved
type. Each wagon, when empty,
weighs over 3,400 pounds. They are
painted white and have very neat
appearance. In addition to carrying
hose and chemical apparatus, each is
provided with three ladders of differ
ent lengths. One will be kept in the
east side engine house to take the
place of the old hose truck and the
other will be placed. in one of the
other engine houses. The old east
side hose cart has passed its days of
usefulness. 1t was used at the time
of the volunteer department and has
been rebuilt several times. Its wheels
are badly battered. 1t is expected
that the two new engine houses will
be completed, so that they can be
moved into by July.

WORK COMMENCED AT MOSI-
NEE.


The final transfers of the water
powers at Mosinee and at Trappe,
have been made. The Sulphate Fiber
Co., which owned the Trappe power
gave the same and valuable cash
consideration to the Wausau Street
Railroad company of this city for the
Mosinee water power which it owned.
Now that the Sulphate and Fibre Co.,
is in possession of the Mosinee power,
which is one of the best on the Wis
consin river, 1t has commenced the
work of erecting a fibre plant. There
are now forty or fifty men at work
and number of teams, and by
July lst, they expect to have about
150 men employed. Karl Mathie, who
is president of the company will be in
charge, and yesterday he was in Mosi-
nee, making arrangements for resi-
dence in which TO reside, and we un-
derstand that in this he was success
full and with his family he will soon
be located in Mosinee This is ex-
ceedingly pleasant news to their hosts
of Wausau friends, who realize now
that it will only be short time be-
fore they are again residents of Nau-
sau They have been in St. Cloud,
Mimi, for several years where Mr..
Mathie has been in charge or the
Watab paper mills.

THE ST. PAUL r. r.

Last week the PILOT touched gently
the conditions of the Wisconsin valley
division of the st. Paul r. r. There
was no inclination on our part to do
more than to let the st. Paul COM
pany know that the citizens along the
line had rebelled and would not stand
for the kind of service that had been
furnished by the road any longer, and
that it was up to the management to
better the conditions. OF course the
citizens cannot compel the st. Paul
company TO do anything that it does
not want to do, unless it happens to
be violating some state law. mas
much as the valley division has always
been one of its very best paying
branches the ST. Paul company should,
by all means, furnish its patrons
something better than old, broken
down, dirty, ill-smelling cars in which
to travel. One of our citizens told
the Pilot that in travelling from New
Lisbon TO Wausau the other day, he
had to brush himself five times to
keep his clothes looking decent, and
then his face, hands, ears and nose
were so filled with dust that he would
not go to the hotel at Grand Rapids
for his supper. He said many other
things which it would not do TO pub
fish. 1t seems that the PILoT's ar
ticle met the views of every town and
city in the valley. Papers in some of
the cities published the article in
whole and others commented on it.
Every paper in the valley should take
hand in seeing that the G. M. & st.
Paul R'y company gives the travelling
public modern equipment, and better
service. In fact there is no excuse
for the managers of this great railway
system equipping the valley division
lone of its best paying branches with
its worn out passenger cars and loco
motives, such as would be unfit even
to run on branch logging road. We
publish the following comments:
DIsPLEAsED WITH SERVICE.
The long suffering public at Wausau
has turned at last and will demand its
rights. The people there are engaged
in the preparation of big petition to
be sent to the management of the Mil
waukee road in which they state facts
regarding the alleged "bum" passen-
ger service on the Valley division and
demand hereafter clean, sanitary,
modern and safe coaches, a depot res
taurant at Grand Rapids, and dining
car breakfast service between Milwau-
kee and Chicago, parlor car service
from Milwaukee to Wausau, separate
sleepers for Milwaukee and Chicago,
and new motive power of sufficient
capacity to run the trains on time. If
the Milwaukee road expects TO cater
to the service of the millionaire class
at Wausau it will simply have to be
up and doing. There is no other way
out of it. Grand Rapids, Wausau and
Merrill have outgrown the branch
service" that the road has been hand-
ing out to them. -Steyens Point

AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.

Sunday evening the Baccalaureate
services were held at the new St.

ship of Boston delivered the Bacca-
laureate sermon. 1t is estimated
that there were about 1000 present
while many others were turned away,
the church being filled to its full
capacity. His subject was New
Americans for New America" He
said that America today is not the
same America as when the class OF
l9l0,entered school twelve years ago,
and that the high school trained to
enter the world and do the work in
1910, but that they must change with
the times or make failure of life.
He gave fame, fortune, power, and
conscience as the four ways of becom-
ing successful and cited many examples
of the men living today, as Gov.
Hughes, Judge Lindsey and Ben
Peterson, the truaDt officer of Muske-
gon to show that the latter was the
real success and that success in the
Others could only be obtained by not
seeking it.
