WHAT is IT FOR I?

The Mosinee Times states flat
parties were in that village last week,
securing options on land which would
be flowed in case dam is built below
Knowlton, as it is expected there will
be. But the Times docs not say who
the parties were or for what purpose
the dam is To be used Sorie say
that q paper mill is to be built down
that way, while others aver chat the
power to be generated by the dam
will be used to operate the cars on
the Chicago ana Wisconsin Valley
railroad, which will extend from
J2nesyllle, to Merrill. A large amount
of steel has been hauled to GAINESVILLE,
Madison and Portage, but as get the
work of grading has not been taken
UP, fer some unexplained reason. 1t
is said that contracts will soon be let
for grading that section of the road
which viii lie between Rothschild
and Stevens Point. Maybe the dam
will be built just to create an artificial
lake for the Knowlton people, so that
they can be i'm style with Gosinee and
Wausau people, who now sport lakes
of their own. Or perhaps it is to
supply greater breeding ground .or
mosquitoes, in which it will have a
hard race with Mosinee. Ever stop
in Mosinee over nightor spend a sultry
day there when the mosquito tribe is
in good working order? We did once
and we rued it. Well back Mosinee

Jersey variety any day, in fist fight

Unless the matter is remedied soon
there is very apt to be an accident
near the post office some day, as re-
IS of electric wires falling to the
ground. Two wires which are strung
into the post Office cross two wires on
Scott street betw cen the post office
and Pfeiffer & Klecker's market.
Swaying in the wind the insulation
will be worn off some day, and it is
easy to tell what will then happen.
We are told by men who are engaged
in electrical work that the system of
stringing wires here would not be
tolerated in most cities, and that it
is wonder an electrocution has not
occurred before now. But it will
come some day Just as sure as your

The pathfinder car, carrying the

roads not in the best of condition.
The reliability run will be pulled off
in July.

TWO MEN KILLED.

Two men met death Friday morn
ing on the road between March Rap
ids and Stratford in the town of Eau
Pleine. They were VIM. McLaugh-
lin and John Schiller, employed as
engineer and fireman on traction
engine belonging to the Doud & Sons
Lumber Co. of March Rapids Since
the Wisconsin Central railroad tore
up its track from Mcmillan to March
Rapids few years ago the lumber
company has been hauling its lumber
by wagon train to Unity and STRAIT
ford, using traction engines to draw
them. Two engines have been thus
employed and each started out Fri
day morning with train of wagons
loaded with lumber. The wagon
road crosses creek at a point about
two miles and one-half northwest of
Stratford which was bridged by a
structure which was considered safe.
The first train passed over it safely.
AS the second train consisting of an
engine and eight loaded wagons came
onto the bridge it gave way, the rear
part of the engine falling into the
creek and pinning both men under it.
John Wesley. Chairman of the town,
and his wife were following in an
automobile, and tried to rescue the
men, but could do nothing. Help
and an automobile were summoned
from Stratford and the two men were
extricated. Mclaughlin was dead,
and apparently had died almost in
stantly after being pinned beneath
the engine. Schiller was still alive
and was taken to Stratford, where he
died shortly after. Both men had
been scalded by escaping steam, and
were otherwise injured.
John Schiller is survived by his
wife and two children. VIM. Nc
Laughlia was single man.
What caused the bridge to 60 down
will probably be determined through
an investigation. Equally as heavy
loads had been hauled over it several
times each week, without there be-
ing any signs of it being unsafe, so
far as we have been able to learn.
