Interest WAVES
IN N. Y. ELECTION

Albany. N. Y, Jan. 27--Interest in
the senatorship contest perceptibly
waned here today. Many of the leg

pairing with the supporters of William
F. Sheehan and others are preparing
to go after the ballot at noon today.

ballot on Saturday without the pres
ence of the quorum required for cleo

GOOD INDIAN DEAD.

Dick Hanakah, better known as
Dick Highknocker was drowned a few
days ago in the Fox river Dick is
better known among Wausau people
as Injun Dick. He visited this city
almost every year until the past few
years and being quite conversant in
the English language, made friends
with great many of our people. He
lost his life in trying to cross the
above named river as he had often
done before. Holding his clothes
aloft in one hand he tried to swim
the river, but in mid stream he was
seized with cramps and sank. His
body was soon recovered and funeral
services were held in Berlin, prom
inent attorney delivering the funeral
Grafton, according to his expressed
wish. Dick, for many years visited
Wausau frequently. He was pecul-
lar Indian in the fact that he was a
white" Indian. He was honest, was
never addicted to the liquor habit
(the bane of his race) and was indus
trious, always having something to
sell. He was a lineal descendent of
Black Hawk, leader of the Winnie
bagoes, who caused the whites so
much trouble prior to the civil war.
jeff Davis, then lieutenant, after
wards president of the confederacy,
was engaged in running down his
grand father, the Black Hawk.
Dick had many admirable charac-
teriStics. For a time he lived near
Hatley, but being dissatisfied with the
shiftless traits of the tribal repre-.
sentatives there, he left them. He
moved to Wittenberg, but, we are
told, never associated closely with
the Indians there, prefering to live
aloof from tribal relations.
He was past seventy years of age al
the time of his death, but walked
with the elasticity of youth. He
was cleanly and dignifed, and far re
moved from the traits of his race.

PAVING COMPLETE

Shorty" Heldstrom, on Wednes-
day last, set the last block in place
under the contract Chris. Johnson &
Son had with the city. and the paw
ing program for 1911 has been COM
pleted. The work was begun in early
June, and for over two months the
streets of Wausau were torn up as
they never were before. During that
time seven blocks on Third street
were repaved with creoSoted blocks,
and one on Scott street, while one on
was relaid with vitrified
brick. The cost of this work has
been approximately as follows: Third
street, $4,000; Scott street, $1,000;
Washington street, $4,000. This cost
will be charged pro rata between the
city, the Wausau Street Railroad Co.
and the adjoining property owners.
The amounts for each will be figured
out shortly and those paying their
tax before Oct. l will be allowed
discount of one per cent.

WAUSAU HANDSOME.

It used to be the eaper to refer 10
this city as Wausau Beautiful. ANY
sing-song phrase or appelation CRATES
on some peoples nerves in time, and
SO with us. Therefore it VIII De
WauSau Handsome for time, not
withstanding that the latter word
when used as an adjective in descrlb-
ing a mug" is not applied to the fem
mime sex, city being referred to as
the pronoun 'sshe." We started OUT
to say something about the appear
ance of this city as it is at present.
Beginning last November, when
trenches were dug along Third street
for the laying of conduit tubing, the
city has been in a more or less torn up
state, until few days ago. At one
time during the summer the shortest
way to get to any point in the busi-
ness section was the longest way
around. But things have changed.
The paving jobs have been completed,
and other Improvements finished.
Perhaps no other city in the state
can boast of a street that can
compare with Third. It is nicely
paved with creosoted noiselesS blocks,
has row of ornamental lights on
either side which make it thing OF
beauty by night and all telephone
poles have been removed, except
few in front of the court house which
were left as trolley wire supports,
and these, we are informed, are to be
replaced with ornamental iron posts.
The contractors have removed all
rubbish left after the paving was
completed, and the city has caused
all improved streets to be cleaned.
AS it is, the city never looked better
than it does today, and we are not
ashamed to ask people of neighboring
cities to come and dine with us.
Portions of Scott and Washington
streets have also been improved with
modern pavement and still further
improvements are to be carried out
this fall. Ornamental lights will line
each side of those'streets from Fourth
to the bridges. Unfortunately, on
account of differences of opinion re-
garding material, the work of repay
ing Washington street from Third to
the slough bridge, could not be taken
up this season. And then, too, we
have not the funds on hand. Good
things do not come in bunch, and
horse races are not won in one heat.
We have handsome down town
district, and there is no getting
around it. And it can be kept SO. 1t
will be even better next year when
the street sweeper can be used,
and the lateral macadamized streets
sprinkled with oil. But the city
authorities must not let pipe layers
tear up the streets again and improp-
erly lay them, as has been customary
in the past.

THE COUNTY FAIR
A Bountiful Year Will Make This a
Successful Event

Unusual care has been exercised
this year to make the Marathon
county fair, Sept. 5-6-7-S, conform to
the new rulings. The fair will be
clean and moral in every respect, and
the midway will be carnival of fun
and attractiveness. There will be
found there the wild west shows,
swimming tank exhibitions, a line of
regular carnival shows, mechanical
shooting gallery, ocean waves, merry
go-rounds, racks and other things.
1t will be the longest line of "Pike"
attractions ever shown on the
grounds.
The fair will not, however, be all
midway. The cattle show will be
especially good. DIR. Wood of Man.
kato, will judge this department.
The race entries have filled AN races
and the best card in the history of the
circuit will be presented. Nine
events are scheduled for Sept. 6-7-8,
Will puIoCS dSSIOSd dCliIS pO,OOO. W.
A. Mills, superintendent of speed, has
made selections OF entries which as
sure one of the finest racing programs
ever advertised by the society. James
Brown, who has served so many years
and SO successfully, will be the starter
for the races again this year. A full
list of the horse entries will be issued
in few days.
The corn show at the Marathon
county fair will alone be worth the
time and expense of coming. 1t is
the greatest corn year we have ever
had. More corn was planted in this
county than ever before and the yield
is immense.
Taking everything into considera-
tion the fair will be the biggest, best,
cleanest and most successful the
Marathon County Agricultural society
has ever held.
