FAREWELL SERMON.

Rev. G. A. Bretscher, pastor of
lions congregation preached his fare
well sermon on Sunday evening, to
an audience which taxed the seating
capacity and standing room of that
church, composed of the congregation
and friends.
The congregation had planned a
surprise for Rev. Bretscher. After his
sermon, which was very ableone and
appropriate to the occasion, aud when
about to complete the altar service,
Rev. Bretscher was called to his study
by one of the elders, where in the
meantime Rev. Daib of Merrill, and
Rev. Destinon, of Trinity church had
entered. He was then escorted to
seat in the main auditorium when
Rev. Daib stepped forward and ex-
pressed in fitting words, the deep ap-
probation of the congregation for the
great work he had accomplished while
pastor of lions church, and their
high regard for him as man and
minister of the gospel and also told
him of the esteem in which he was
held by his brother pastors, and that
all wished him Godspeed in his new
field of labor.
Rev. Destinon, pastor of the sister
church, on the west side, which was
organized few years ago as branch
of lions church, also, in brief adj
dress expressed the wish that the
bonds of sympathy and friendship
which had been growing stronger
each year of Rev. Bretscher's stay in
Wausau would never be severed.
VIM. Braun, the senior elder of the
church also offered thanks and best
wishes in behalf of the elders, officers
and congregation and in their behalf
rendered Rev. Bretscher purse, con-
tanning substantial cash gift.
Rev. Bretcher arose and expressed
his heartfelt thanks to the congrega-
tion and speakers, saying that words
were inadequate to convey his feelings;
that he trusted the Master, whom he
served, would reward them in great
measure. After this an opportunity
was given the congregation to say
farewell. Accordingly they filed past
Rev. Bretcher, and there was hand
shaking and kindly wishes expressed.
Rev. Bretscher has served lions
church faithfully and conscientiously
for twenty-five years. He always
firmly believed that he could best
serve his church and congregation,
county and community by attending
strictly to his duties as a pastor and
this he has done. He resigned on ac-
count of failing health and will soon
leave Wausau for ShawGno where he
will recuperate and may re-enter The
the ministry when fully recovered.

70 CLOSE SUNDAYS.

We understand that orders will be
issued soon, perhaps as early as next
Thursday, to every saloon keeper in
the city, regulating their hours of
business. This comes through an un-l
Outstanding agreed upon by the saloon
men themselves, after a conference
with the city officials, so we are told.
The order which. will go into effect
will prohibit saloons from being open
Sunday mornings and will cause them
to close every morning at one O'Clock.
The shades must also be pulled up so
that the interior of the place can be
seen from the street.
Some of the owl or all night saloons
have kicked on the plan so far as it
relates to closing at one O'Clock, we
understand, but have been informed
that what is good for the goose is
good for the gander.
Thisorder, we understand, meets the
approval of the majority of saloon
keepers and citizens and also police
force. The ones who are now afraid
that their stomachs might dry up on a
Sunday morning and blow away, will
soon adjust themselves to the new
conditions. If they have a spong-
like feeling they can, and no doubt

PUr OVER UNTIL FALL.

At the county board meeting held
last week the Wisconsin Advancement
association presented "a communica-
tion stating the provisions of law
of Wisconsin which allows counties to
make donations up to the sum Of 81, 900
to such organizations as the above
associa ton. The communication
asked Cor such a donation.
w. II. Mylrea addressed the board
for fully half an hour, in behalf of
the association. 1t was his desire to
see Marathon county the first to take
advantage Of the law-the first coun-
ty to, take a forward step in advertis-
ing the resources of Wisconsin. He
told, in brief, what the organization
is doing and the possibilities of the
results of its work.
The board members, however, had
decided on an economic policy at this
session, and no action will be taken
on the request until the November
meeting.

GEORGE TOPHAM, SIR.

George Topham, ST., who for thirty
five years was resident of Dancy,
this county, died last Saturday night
from heart failure. During the day
Saturday, Mr.. Topham was feeling as
well as ever, and was around attend
ing to his work as usual. Shortly
after retiring his wife noticed he was
acting 1ueerly and before she could
summon any assistance he had passed
away. Mr.. Topham was born in
Nottingham, England, Sept, 18th,
1852, and was therefore in his Goth
year at the time of his death.
He was married March IA, 1870, to
Sarah A. Phillips of Sheffield, Eng
land, and when young people came to
America. OF this union four child
rem were born; three sons and the
widow survive him. A little daugh-
ter preceded him to the great beyond
some years ago. The sons are Edward
E. and George of Dancy, and Herbert
of Sleman, Ontario, Canada. Mr..
Topham was one of the oldest settlers
in this county. Kind and generous
hearted and always ready at any time
of the day and night to assist at a
sick bed or help out at time of death
and his many charitable acts will
long be remembered. The funeral
will be held from NJ. e. church,
Dancy, at l O'Clock Wednesday after
noon. Rev. c. H. Jacquithof Mosinee
will officiate, and interment will be
in Knowlton cemetery.

HOME FROM CALIFORNIA.

Hon. Alexander Stewart and family
return home tonight from Pasadena,
California. H. G. Stewart and family,
it is reported, accompany them home
from the same place. Alexander
Stewards health being impaired dur
ing the past year departed late in the
winter for the Golden state, in the
hopes of benefiting his condition. His
family accompanied him. Not being
successful in regaining his health he
desired to be taken to his old and
dearly loved home in this city. All
arrangements were made and he
finally started, leaving Pasadena in
a special Pullman sleeper Saturday
morning. Walter Alexander, his
business associate and dearest friend,
was called there two weeks ago today
and also returns home with the party.
DIR. Joseph f. Smith of this city was
called twice to meet the Alexander
Stewart family in Pasadena, both
calls being countermanded ow-
ing to Mr.. Stewards weakened con-
dition and the uncertainty of depart
ure from there. Later, the doctor re-
ceived word to meet the party in
Chicago. He left for that city last
night and will return with them.

MURRAY--THOM.

Last evening, Monday, April 18th,
1911, Donald John Murray was united
in marriage to Miss Marion Thorn at
Watertown, Wis, at the hour of s
O'Clock, at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Thorn.
Those who attended from this city
were Mr.. and Mrs. Newman Bells.
From Merrill, Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
Ryan, the lattera sister of the groom.
Mr.. and Mrs. Murray will arrive
home this evening and will go di-
rect to their own home, which has
been erected and furnished by the
groom, at the corner of Ninth and
Adams street.
Donald Murray is the only son of
d. j. Murray of this city and has re-
sided here all his life. He is the type
of a young man that will make him
self felt in the business world. His
friends are legion and by them he is
known and justly appreciated.
The young lady whom he has taken
to share his joys and sorrows, does
not come to Wausau a stranger, she
taught school in our city for several
years and is held IL the highest es-
TEEN by wide circle of friends to all
of whom she has endeared herself by
various admirable traits.

cock of Augusta, who had come here
to sing on this occasion. Mr.. Bah
cock is one of the old time singers Of
Wisconsin and he is able to enthuse
an audience as can no other singer in
the state. He was accompanied by
e. M. James on the piano.
Mr.. Mylrea was introduced by Mr..
Bissell who said that he thought
that that formality was unnecessary,
for everybody in Wausau knows the
speaker
Mr.. Mylrea is secretary of the Wis
consin Advancement association and
he talked very eloquently upon our
state and its advantages, he told
what the Advancement association
IS doing for Wisconsin to bring
settlers into the state, and before he
had finished it is safe to say that
those present were pretty well salts
fed that Wisconsin is just now the
best advertised state in the union
and that, too, at an expense that is
merely nominal.
He showed that so far as the state
is concerned it is doing little or
nothing to induce immigrants to set
tie on it's fertile lands, in fact, it is
the aim Of the powers that be to cut
off appropriations for this work, if
possible. He showed that in the past
ten years, the growth of Wisconsin
was very small as compared to many
of the Ire states which he mentioned;
Notwithstanding the growth was only
about II per cent, taxes have crept up
several hundred per cent. lie showed
the enormous cost of our state uni
yersity now as compared to ten years
ago.
Mr.. Mylrea stirred up much en-
thusiasm as he pictured what is in
store for our state in the future pro-
vided all viii put their shoulders to
the wheel and boost. 1t was a sur
prise to his listeners when he told
them that the annual income from all
the gold mines in Alaska, California,
Colorado and other Western states
within the next few years will
equal the output of all the gold mines
in the world. Mr.. Mylrea spoke for
an hour and half, and every moment
of the time was interesting. 1t was
the sowing of the seed that will in
time bring forth rich returns. W. II.
Mylrea is doing this very thing some
where in Wisconsin nearly every
night. Tonight he speaks in Merrill
and Mr.. Babcock accompanies him
and will sing at the meeting.
At the close of the address Mr..
Babcock sang several rousing songs,
and was encored again and again.
The meeting closed by all rising and
singing America"

A BUILDING WITH A HIS
TORY.
The Old Farnham Building Now Being
Remodeled.

Geo. f. Rick & Co. occupy a build
ing which is of great historic interest
TO our people. This building 1as
erected between So and go on lot
opposite the court house. The upper
story in 1860 became the home of
Forest Lodge No. $50, f. and A. NJ,
which was organized in that building
In 1860 and where it remained until
In the SOS. 4 part of the first floor,
tabout 2Ox25 feet in 'front.' was used
Tor the first bank in Wausau. This
bank was started by ]. A. Farnham
In 1858 and was called the Bank of
the Interior. The building was
originally 4Ox22 There was quite
an imposing front; large windows on
either side of the doos, all taking up
the whole front of the building.
There was a large one story addi-
ton in the rear and back of the bank
room where Mr.. Farnham and family
resided. Mr.. and Mrs. G. P. Haseltine,
now OF Ripon, resided in the building
Tor several years. IL was moved to
us present site when j. ID. Womer
put up his building, just south of the
Bells House in 1887 having been pur-
chased by b. Ulrich and an addition
quilt on which makes it now 22x60
and is now occupied by Geo. Rick &
20. as grocery store. The same
window frames and doors are in front
In the lower story as when the build
ing was erected, also the doors swing
on the same hinges and are locked by
the same old fashioned lock. In re-
modelling the upper story there were
evidences of arches etc. placed in
there by the Masons. 1t is lathed
with split pine boards. The frame is
of timber all mortised as all good and
substantial buildings were construct
ed in those days, and all is in a splen-
did state Of preservation.
DIR. L. E. Spencer came into possess
sion of the building about seven years
ago and is now remodeling the first
floor and basement. When completed
it will double the space of G. F. Rick
q Co. and will enable them to
carry much larger stock of fancy
groceries, fruits, vegetables, etc.
They intend to put in a vegetable
spray, glass refrigerators for butter,
cream, milk, cheese, ETC., protected
from flies and dust and as always
to carry nothing but the best.
The store is to be painted in white
enamel. All floor show cases are to
be removed and instead there will be
a number of bargain tables. The
show windows will be dust-proof and
fiy-proof and everything up to date.

EASTER.

Easter, in Wausau, so far as the
weather was concerned, was ideal.
The sky was clear and it was moder-
ately warm. All of the churches were
profuse in floral decorations and great
crowds were in attendance. There
were sermons appropriate TO the day
and special music, and many united
with the churches of the city. In
some of the churches the Sunday
schools carried out specially arranged
programs.
The members of st. Omer Com
mandery No. 10, X. r., as usual, at
tended services in body and in full
uniform. This year they went to the
Universalist church where Rev. r. b.
T. Fisher, preached an eloquent SER
mon on "The Great Miracle"
The day was one filed with rejoic-
ings and gladness, and the proverbial
display of spring finery was every
where in evidence.
