TAKES HIS LIFE.
Ihe Lifeless Body of Young Man Is
Found Sunday.

Anton Vogel, residing at 921 n.
lrst Ave, was found dead Sunday,
With bullet hole in his left breast,
over or near the heart. The discovery
was made by some little girls who
were picking flowers up on the hin
north and east of st. Mary's hospital.
judging from its condition the corpse
had lain there several days, for the
exposed parts were discolored and
swollen. As soon as identity had
been established relatives were noti-
he'd and after the coroner had made
an investigation the remains were
taken to an undertaking establish
ment to be prepared for burial.
As previously stated, a bullet had
been fired into the mans left breast.
He was lying face downward, partly
on the right side. A .38 calibre re-
volver of the Bulldog pattern was
lying near him.
Deceased was last seen on Thursday
morning last. At that time he left
his boarding place at the Peter Peter
son home on the west side, and crossed
the river to the east side, presumably
coming over the Bridge street bridge.
He was seen walking up the st. Paul
railroad tracks, being observed by
several parties. Andrew Peterson,
who is clearing land on the hill not
far from where the body was found,
saw the young man entering the
woods Thursday morning, and little
while later heard shot fired. Fol-
lowing this he heard shout as if
some one was calling for help. He
thought at the time that boys were
shooting at squirrels or a target, and
paid no more attention to the matter.
That was at about nine O'Clock, and
the body was found about 400 feet
from where Mr.. Peterson was work
ing.
Those who knew Vogel noticed that
he had been in a Respondent mood
for some time. He had been in poor
health, and this, it is believed, caused
him to lose courage, and interest in
the world.
He was born in Marshfield, and was
a little past twenty years of age. He
had lived in Wausau for a number of
years, working at common labor.
He is survived by his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Mike Yogel, and one brother,
George.
The funeral was held this afternoon
from the Peterson home on n. First
Ave.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

Frank Sadoski, an employe of the
Marathon Paper Mills Co., was held
up Sunday night and robbed of $50.
The robbery occurred on the road be-
tween the park and the paper mill i,
three young fellows oyerpowering him
and going through his pockets. No
weapons of any kind were used to in
timidate him. Sadoski, who is Pole,
speaking poor English, reported the
matter to the authorities next morn
ing and gave the names of three young
fellows working in the mill, whom he
alleges are the guilty ones. Sheriff
OConnor went down and arrested
them. One of them tried to get away
by running across the dam to the
opposite side of the river, but was
caught. They gave their names as
John Gelaski, Geo. Misczek and John
Butcher, all Poles. This morning
they were brought into court and their
hearing was continued for a week.
Each was placed under $1,000 bonds
to appear at that time.

RETURNED HOME.

Ernest A. Dunn returned home
Thursday evening from Miami, Flori-
da, where he spent the winter in COM
pany with his partner, Peter Wehrley,
who arrived home about month ago.
They report having spent most
delightful winter and will probably
return there again next winter, having
invested in a good deal of property.
Mr.. Dunn spent couple of weeks on
the return trip, visiting different
points in Kentucky and other states,
but failed to find any city that in its
general appearance of prosperity was
superior to Wausau, nor any farming
country that appeared to be better
than is to be found right here in
Marathon county, which in the char
acter of its farm buildings, its broad
rolling farms, is equal in every respect
to the famed blue grass regions of
Kentucky, where no lands can be
bought at less than 5000 and acre, the
only difference being that this section
is younger and has not had the same
chances for development.

FORGED CHECKS.

John Jeski, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Mat Jeski of the town of Cassel, was
arrested Thursday charged with prac-
ticing high finance. Last January
someone forged number of checks
on Buman Bros. of Marathon City,
three of them being cashed in this
city, Notwithstanding that the job
was coarse one, clearly indicating
forgery. The payee's name was spelled
in two different ways and the writing
was very poor. Young Jeski was sus-
pected, but "flew his kite" and could
not be located. Thursday he returned
from Hiles, where he had been work
ing and was Immediately "pinched"
and admitted his guilt. The young
man is sixteen years of age, and does
not have the appearance of one who
would ever shine in the world of high
finance.

SCHUMANN-HEINK CONCERT.

mann-Heink, the worlds greatest con-
tralto, at the opera house, under the

sau's first opportunity of hearing one
of the worlds great operatic stars

us of 100 miles will all be represented

been so aroused with musical unthusi-
asm. Nine. Schumann-Heink and
party will arrive some time Wednes-

receive many attentions from promi-
nent citizens during her stay here.

HOUSES NUMBERED.

Since the two new engine houses
viii be put in commission May /, it
will be necessary to give each engine
house in the city a number The
names least side" and west side" will
have passed out of existence by that
time II will be Nos. /, 2, 3 and 4
hereafter. The one on Third street
will be known as No. j; the one in the
Eighth ward, No 3; the old west side
house as No. 2; the one in the Sew
entn ward as No. 4. Thus the two
odd numbers viii be on the east side;
the even numbers on the west side Of
the creek. In re-arranging matters
preparatory TO opening the two new
houses some important changes will
be made Hereafter, when No. ] Is
called out, No. 3 will be the first 70
respond to a call for assistance, in
steay Of the old west side hose com.
pany, and No. 2 win be assisted by
No. 4, on second call. These rules
viii hold good unless the calls come
from the vicinity Of Nos. 3 or &. in
which cases the other hose company
on the same side Of the river az the
one called will respond on second call.
These rules, however, viii depend
largely on the location OF the boxes.
In some instances part Of TIE equip
ment from two houses win 20 out on
first call. 1t is a matter which re-
Iquires some study, and IL may be
some little time before details viii
be worked out which viii result iD
the highest degree Of efficiency.

TWO ACCIDENTS.

Two accidents resulted yesterday
afternoon at the corner of Third and
Franklin streets. In the first place
teamster who was hauling steel rails
for the street railroad company broke
the tongue of his wagon, while max
ing the turn at that corner. The
rails were stretched clear across Third
street and so as not to block street
car and other traffic men set to work
to get the wagon and its load back
onto Franklin street. j. Beringer
came along in his automobile. He
was evidently watching the men, and
did not see the rails which formed
barrier across Third. His machine
bumped slam bang into the rails and
stopped dead. His little boy was
thrown out of the seat but was not
injured. One wheel of the auto was
damaged and one of the lights was
broken off.

THE OPENER.

Five or six hundred people, includ-
ing kids, went out to the base ball
park Sunday afternoon to witness
game between leaguers and the Cubs.
But the leaguers were not very well
represented, Dunbar, Dolan, Walliser,
Brown and Duchien being the only
regulars on the team opposing the
Cubs, although Walker, a young
fellow, who is trying to get on the
team and is paying his own expenses,
caught, i. e., he gave an imitation
and proved that he is not fast enough,
and two unknown pitchers were given
a chance. Eisele, fellow sent here
by Jack Mccarthy of Danville, pitched
three innings, while Holtz, young
fellow from Chippewa Falls, pitched
two innings. Neither showed any
thing that would set the world on
fire. Dunbar pitched four innings,
and the Cubs secured but one hit off
him. The prevailing opinion was that
had he worked throughout the game
he would not have been scored on, for
the Cubs were helpless before his
delivery.
The leaguers filled in with home
players and these made errors which
let in the Cubs runs. The score at the
end of the game was to in favor of the
big team. Mark Bells umpired. The
Cubs work as whole loomed up better
than did that representing the league
team. Their fielding was very good,
while that of the "fill-ins" on the
other team was ragged.
Brown, Walliser, Dolan and Duchien
all landed on the ball, the latter for
two-bagger.
Art. Fennell, who is built on the
beanpole order, arrived yesterday from
his home in New York. He looks to
be in good condition. Other players
have been arriving on most every
train from the south since yesterday
noon.
On Thursday Manager Dolan will
take his team to Appleton for two
games and will then go to Fond du-
Lac for two more, returning Monday.
The games will be reported here each
evening.
