w. H. Mylrea's Buick touring car
arrived in Wausau on Wednesday; it
is as pretty as picture and so far
has behaved very becomingly. When
Mr.. Mylrea brought the first automo-
bile to Wausau he seldom failed to
furnish the PILOT with material for a
column article each week. But autos
are differently constructed now.
Most of the losses sustained in the
recent fire in Mosinee have been adj
justed and the policy holders have re-
ceived their money. Preparations
are being made for rebuilding. Some
of those burned out have secured
other quarters temporarily and opened
up business. The village board, at
its last meeting, established fire
limit, so as to cause more substantial
building construction in the future.
On Wednesday evening last the
aurora borealis, or northern lights,
were bright in the northern heavens.

earth to darkness and to me-" On
Friday the street overseer found a
a few more holes 10 fill up with rock
crushed to the size of croquet balls.
'Squeer what that tarnation old comet
did bring, b'gosh.

tunity of getting their first view of

Mrs. Edwin Weiland suited her best.

city.
Wouldn't it be just as we'll to let
Halley's comet have a rest? Every
large daily in the country publishes
daily bulletins, which are copied into
the country papers, but after all the
fuss concerning this astral body, no
one has been able to see it. A few
have seen something, but 50 indis-
tinct that they are not sure but what
it was just mist. Daily bulletins,
for the past week have said, "the
great Halley's comet can hereafter be
seen in the western sky but it does
not show up. 1T is certainly the best
advertised show in existence but it
seems to be no good We would like
to see that spreading tail which
reaches from the horizon to the zen
it'll.
The II. w. Wright Lumber Co.'S
mill in Merrill was burned TO the
ground last Wednesday evening. The
fire was started by the breaking of
the upper wheel of the band saw. A
spoke in the wheel came in contract
with the saw, revolving at the rate
of 400 revolutions per minute, caus-
ing sparks to fly into the sawdust
conveyor. Inside of fifteen minutes
the whole mill was on fire. The fire
spread through the mill so rapidly
that the crew of 125 men had to run
for places of safety, leaving their din
ner pals, bicycles and coats, and one
had his hair singed in making his eS-
cape. The mill was built in 1882 and its
timberS were so soaked with oil that
it burned like powder. The loss is
about $780, 600 fully covered by insur-
ance. The company intends to rebuild
at once.
GOOD WORK.
