BENEFIT FOR ST. JOHNS
INFIRMARY.

The United Commercial Travellers
of Wausau, are to give an amateur
performance at the Grand opera
house on Friday evening for the
benefit Of St. Johns Intirmary. The
combination of the U. G. L. and the
infrmary ought most certainly fill the
opera house to its capacity. In
addition to this, the very best of
local talent is engaged in presenting
the program. The November issue of
of the Advent presents report of the
work of the inirmary for the first
two months of its operation that
ought to win for it place in the
heart of every good citizen of Wausau.
We feel certain that this generous
effort on the part of the U. G. Il. to
aid in sustaining this institution will
meet with hearty support. The en-
tire net proceeds of the entertainment
will be given to the management of
the inirmary. The price of admission
is fifty cents, with reserved seat in
any part of the house. The box office
at the opera house will be open on
Wednesday and Friday for the sale of
seats. The entertainment will consist
of play by Mr.. Ingraham and Miss
Brand entitled, "The Happy Pair"
and vaudeville performance by a
number of local amateurs.

fact, those who have not done it
already, will only have time to buy

a complete list of all those who may
be without Thanksgiving dinner
worthy of the name, and up-to-date
this has been nearly accomplished.

charge has list of over 200 poor who
will be supplied on Thanksgiving and
the number may reach $50. 1t is the

been chosen poor commissioner of the
city. Mr.. Schneider will be at the
city hall all day Wednesday, filling
and delivering baskets and who desire
to furnish turkeys, chickens, meat,
clothing, ETC., will find him at the
city hall ready to take care of same
