Violation Of Rule.

II is contended that the preceding
violates the rule laid down in the
Quay case. which was that a governor
OF a state has no power to make a
temporary appointment as senator TO
fill vacancy which may have hap
pened when the legislature Of the
state was in session. Having resign
ed while the Pennsylvania legislature
was in session Mr. Quay sought re-
election. Falling in this effort, he
was given an appointment by the gov
ernor. BY a majority of one on a
vote Of s.. congress refused to award
the seat to him The action was taken
on construction Of the constitution.
If vacancies have been occas:oned by
resignation OF otherwise during the
recess of The legislature OF any state,
the executive thereof may make tenn

meeting Of the legislature. which shall

DISAPPOINTED.

The local daily organ the past week
has been filled with articles telling of
Wausau's new lake; that it was fast
filling up; that there was a fortune in
picking up CLAIMS below the dam
which contained valuable pearls; that
the dam at Scholfield had been opened
up so that the waters therefrom
would help to swell the volume in
the great lake, etc.
The fact is the gates at Schofield
have not been raised; there is not
enough water in lake Wausau to float
a good sized boat; not a person is
known to have found valuable pearl,
nor anything that looked like pearl.
1t will be several months before the
machinery is installed at the paper
mills and no water will be needed un-
til that is accomplished. 1t is doubt
full whether the lake will be filled
before next spring.
The reader will ask, why were these
mistatements made. Well, its no use
to go into details, but the large por-
tion of citizens who went over the
street railway to see the big ~ lake;
to see the natural bed of the Eau
Claire river and to make fortune in
pearls were disappointed lot.

HYMENIAL.

David Braman of Amboy, H., and
Miss Bessie Vaughan of this city,
were married yesterday morning.
The ceremony took place at the home
of the young lady's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Job Vaughan, los Liberty street
and was performed by the Rev. L. B.
T. Fisher. The ceremony was simple,
there were no attendants, and only
few people were present. Shortly
after the ceremony the young couple
took their departure on st. Paul
train and will visit in Milwaukee and
Chicago and then go to Amboy,
where they will take up housekeep-
ing. The young man is railroad
employee, industrious and one who
makes friends wherever he goes. The
young lady is the daughter of one of
our oldest and highly respected
couples, and having been born and
reared in Wausau she has a legion of
friends who wish her well rounded
measure of happiness in her new
estate.

A PLEASANT EVENING.

Mr.. and Mrs. S. B. Tobey gave an
informal reception at their home on
East McIndoe ST., last Saturday even
ing, to the members of the board of
education ana their wives, the teach
ers of the public schools of the city of
Wausau, and the wives of those
teachers who are married. There
were about one hundred and forty
present. All enjoyed themselves to
the fullest extent. The evening was
spent in getting acquainted with the
many new teachers, who have entered
the school work for this year. Besides
there were quite number of vocal
and instrumental selections and reci-
tations rendered by the following,
which added much to the enjoyment
of the evening: Miss Tressa Lintz,
Iona Slack, Miss Hermione Silver
thorn, Miss Wanda Hopp, Miss Minnie
Bergh, Miss Nellie Grant and S. B.
Tobey. Light refreshments were
served during the evening.

NO TYPHOID GERMS.

1t has been circulated that the
health officer, DR.. W. r. Jones, had
said to few that they must not
drink the water that comes from the
city mains, because it is filled with
typhoid germs. The PILOT has taken
the trouble to inquire of DR.. Jones as
to the truthfulness of the report. He
says enlphatically that he has made
no such statement, but that he has
repeatedly told the people that the
water was not pure and he advised
boiling the same before using it as
drinking water. He has sent away
specimens of the water several times,
and each time Che analysis showed
that it was impure and unfitto drink.
Dr. Jones is today sending away six
samples of water taken from the
mains at various parts of the city,
he is also sending specimens of water
from various wells and springs in this
neighborhood. The results will be
given to the public, and if typhoid
germs be found in any of the water
he will make it known at once.
There are at present time seven
cases of typhoid fever in Wausau;
three of these are traced as coming
from outside of the city, the other
four are unaccounted for. 1t is easy
for germs to be carried by flies at this
time of the year and possibly this may
account for these cases, but none of
the seven cases have been traced to
our water supply.
AS soon as it was known that the
city water was not pure, S. B. Tobey,
superintendent of our city schools,
gave orders for enough large earthen
jars with closing faucets attached, to
supply each school in the city. These
are being installed today and will be
kept filled with spring water until such
time as the water in our mains shall
be found free from bacteria and per-
fectly pure. This, it is expected, will
be the condition until the new wells
now in course of construction, are
completed, which will be in about
sixty days.

SYSTEM READY.

The police patrol system installed
last week is in practically working
order, but will not be put in actual
operation for a week or more for a
reason. The boxes, ten in number,
are very handy rig-much like the
pocket in shirt. By their use you
can summon a policeman, call a
hurry up wagon or turn in fire
alarm. There is a probability that
before the people get educated in the
matter OF manipulating them, there
will be confusion in getting what you
want. If you discover burglar in
your home don't get excited and call
out the firemen. If your house is on
fire policeman can do you no good,
so please let him alone. The boxes
are placed hign on each pole, so that
the signal lights will show A con-
crete step will be built at the foot of
each one SO that the telephone inside
can be reached.

Wausau, finishing in third place,
defended Eau Claire's title to the
championship in this league in a post
season series with Hppleton for the
championship between the WI. and
NV. leagues. The first two games
were played in this city Thursday
and Friday and the following two
days games were played in Appleton.
Wausau won the four games from the
champions of the WI. The latter
succeeded in getting two runs in the
series. On account of some Of our
men going home we had to borrow
Curtis, Stark and Ballies of Winona
for the series. The victory, complete
as it was, leaves little doubt as to the
strength of the two leagues. The
gate receipts were split up between
the players.
After the game in Appleton Sunday
most of our boys went to their re-
spectiye homes. Dolan is perhaps
the only one whe will remain here
during the winter. Dunbar, who
moved here last spring with the in
tention of remaining here, has gone
back to his old home in Charlottesville,
Ind, and intends to quit base ball
for good. His friends in this city,
and they are many, are averse to see
ing him pursue this course.
President Elliott has been making
another effort to enter the Twin
cities. 1t is said that Harry Lennon,
owner of the ST. Paul team, and the
Cantillon Bros. of the Minneapolis
team, are not averse to the PROPOSE
tion and will take stock in teams for
those cities, providing the schedule
does not conflict with their American
association games. In the event
Elliott is successful, at least two
cities will get kicked out of this
league.

LAND OF MINERAL.

Gustav Boehm, who had been visit
ing in the city for number of weeks,
will depart this evening for his home
near Clifton, Ariz. He is engaged
there with copper mining company,
and likes the country, but not the
people. He says that Mexicans, ne
groes and Chinese comprise about
eighty-fve per cent of the population.
Mr.. Boehm says that that section is
rich in minerals and precious stones,
but that at the present time the bust
ness is largely in the hands of promo
ton companies. The labor employed
is mostly Mexican-the cheapest to
be had. The country is oyerrun with
scorpions, centipedes tarantulas, rat
tlesnakes and gila monsters. He
says that a Mexican is almost immune
to these and can lie right down among
scorpions and go to sleep, without be-
ing bitten. He says that the country
in his section is wild and woolly.
Everybody "totes a gun" as they say
in the South, and no small gun at
that. When one man shoots another,
which is very frequently the case, the
coroner's jury invariably renders
verdict of suicide. Gambling rooms
run the same number of hours as do
the smelters- twenty-four, threeshifts.
These dens supply the village sexton
with work. Mr.. Boehm says it is
well for a man to mind his p's and
as down in that country. Let one
address such remarks to another, as
is heard up here in a lumber camp or
bar room, there will be funeral and
a small one at that. Prior to going
down into the Southwest Mr. Boehm
was employed in the abstract office
of the Wausau Law and Land asso-
ciatiOp

HOSPITAL DAY.

Each year since the establishment
of St. Mary's hospital the public
have been given an opportunity OF
showing their appreciation of the
benefits of this institution to ouI
city. Each time they have responded
literally. Last year, by means of the
money raised on tag day, the Ladies
Auxiliary was enabled to found the
free bed for the care of the sick poor
of Wausau. The bed has been used
almost constantly for few months
past and has proven its great value.
Many persons who could not other
wise have received them, have had
given them the best of care and
nursing, with operations and special
medicines when necessary. The ply
sicianS in charge have most generous
ly given their services at all times to
the occupants of the free bed. For
the maintenance of this splendid char
ity the Ladies Auxiliary ask your
generosity on Saturday next, the oath
of Sept, the anniversary of the open
ing of the hospital. On that day
representatives of the Auxiliary
wearing badges, viii call at your
home to receive your contribution.
Whether it be large or small it will
be welcome but do not refuse your as
sistance to this good work. The
ladies of the Auxiliary feel very much
gratitied with the results of the first
years work of their organization.
Reports at the second annual meet
ing show that it raised money TO
the amount of S726.l0.
Donation day last Sept. brought in
cash amounting to S77.8O, 200 cans of
fruit, 10 OTIS. of pickles, l66 pieces of
linen, including towels, bed and table
linen, ? wheeled chairs, garments,
provisions, books and flowers.
On Xmas day each room was pro-
vided with a lowering plant. Ice
cream and candy were sent for all
who were able to enjoy them.
In Feb. more than $4,000 was raised
at card party with which was bought
an incubator. PCS yards of material
were bought, cut and sewed, thus
furnishing many useful garments,
night-gowns, wrappers, surgical
aprons, caps and bandages, besides
much necessary bed linen. One dozen
pairs of fine wool blankets were also
furnished.
At the annual meeting on Sept. 9th
it was decided that the most impOr
tant work to be undertaken was the
construction of good road from Sixth
street to the hospital.
A committee was appointed to in
vestigate cost and methods of build
ing such road. At this writing the
money is in hand and work will pro-
coed at once.

A COUNTRY FAIR.

A fair was given in Athens last
Saturday, which drew hundreds of
people for miles around. This is an
annual affair and for several years
has been q great success, this year
more 50 than ever The show is al
ways large and it appears that the
premiums alone do not induce people
TO make IN exhibit-everyone seems
TO be interested At the fair last
Saturday excellent samples of farm
produce were shown, as well as dairy
products and dairy cattle. There are
other sections of the county which
might with profit copy after the en-
terprise of Athens and her surround
ing people. The interest in the
Athens fair is increasing yearly. 1t
helps the merchants of the village; it
is of benefit to the farmers of that
locality.

MARTHA MORLEY STEW
ART.
Scientific Talks on Cigarette Poisons.

Mrs. Martha Morley Stewart of Chi
cago, addressed the pupils of the
Franklin school yesterday afternoon
on the well known effects of the cigar
cite. There are about 500 pupils in
the building and they were divided
into seven sections, according to their
grades of understanding. Mrs. Stew
art brings her form of expression to
meet the comprehension of the chill
dren be fore her, ard all sit enrapt in
the most earnest attention.
Mrs. Stewart will speak in every
school here and on Thursday of this
week, the high school students will
listen to her most learned explana-
alton of the various forms and use of
tobacco. Her talk last Saturday at
the Wausau Business college met
with hearty approval by both the pro-
fessors and students. Much good re-
suited from it, many fully deciding
to never smoke cigarettes, and others
throwing away their pipes with the
words, 'neyer more"
Mrs. Stewart has spoken in the
schools of about forty cities and her
special delight is to arm the growing
boys and girls with the weapons of
wisdom so they may fight the cigar
cite and never form the appetite.
She has been admitted in various uni
versailles, colleges, ladies' seminaries,
business colleges, state normals, train
ing schools, and carries many letters
of endorsement and highest honor
from the same. Her research has
been made among the most noted
authorities in both Europe and Amer
lea. She has spoken before clubs of
scientific men, chemists, and physi-
clans who endorse her lectures as
scientific and correct. They are in
teresting to men and women because
of the explanations telling of the ma
ture of each poison in its deadly work
upon the human body. Mrs Stewart
does not charge for single lectures
but speaks free to all and as she is
working independently of all organ
izations she asks for local support
while doing the work in each city.
Further announcements will be
made as she speaks to the clubs
and churches and an invitation is ex-
tended to all who are interested in
knowing why cigarettes are more
poisonous and the most rapid destroy
er of any known evil in the world.

THE GOLF GROUNDS.

Much interest has now been conferred
in the Wausau golf grounds, near
Rothschilds. The grounds are in ex-
