he was in bed, but it seems that he
filled it with wood, and concealed
himself near the door. While the
sheriff was busy, Rockford slipped
out and made his escape. His absence
was not discovered until Tuesday
morning. Rockford was placed in

SEAL CAMPAIGN
OPENS DECEMBER l
Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis AssOcia.
tiOn NJ Is halling Its Sales Force
II 5ues Cell for Volunteers.

A call for 1900 district campaign
managers to handle the distribution
of Red Cross Christmas seals in differ
ent parts of the state has been made
by the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis
aS.8s.lt tion. This call constitutes the
opening gun of the 1911 seal campaign
which starts Dec. l. For month
past the association has been quietly
marshalling it's sales force, most of
the members of which managed the
district sales last year. The army is
not yet complete however, the associa-
tion intending to double its number
of workers this year, and correspond
ingly increase the sale OF seals. Six
million seals have been ordered for
Wisconsin, of which 100000 have al
ready been received at the Milwaukee
headquarters. This year orders from
cities of more than 10000 population
will be consigned direct from Wash
ingtOn, the Milwaukee Office thus be-
ing relieved of a large part of the
work of redistribution. The press
service of the society will keep cam
paign managers and newspapers
throughout the state constantly in
formed as to the progress of the sale.
In addition to offering local anti-tu-
berculosis organizations handling the
campaign in their districts so per cent.
of the proceeds for local work as an
incentive to greater effort, the state
society has arranged for an elaborate
series of prizes to be awarded on the
per capita sales basis adopted last
year. This list of prizes and the names
of the donors will be announced prior
to the opening of the campaign.

CITY COUNCIL.

A meeting of the city council was
held Tuesday evening at which con-
siderable amount of business was
transacted.
The high school boys petition
against the passage of an ordinance
prohibiting the playing of foot ball
came up, and motion was made to
table it, which motion was lost, the
mayor voting and breaking up tie
vote. The ordinance was then moved
for passage and was defeated by a
vote of 12-4. In the discussion of the
game nearly every alderman had
something to say, and the boys were
represented by Supt. S. B. TObey.
The discussion was interesting. One
alderman classe9 the game as more
dangerous than bayonet charge.
An ordinance was read which fixes
the license fee for shows of various
kinds. The fee for moving picture
houses is So per month and for tented
performances from $3.50 to 800, the
fee to be fixed according to the size
of the show. 1t will be brought up
for passage at the next meeting.
An ordinance was adopted relating
to saloons, a part of which reads as
follows:
Any person licensed, as aforesaid,
who shall keep his place of business
open between the hours of one
o'clock a. m. and five O'Clock p.
m, or who shall habitually allow
minors or common drunkards to con-
gregate at such place, shall be deemed
guilty of keeping disOrderly house,
and on conviction therOf, shall be
punished as provided in section of
this chapter, and whether so convicted
and punished or not, shall be liable to
have his license revoked as provided
, for in sections and 10 of this chapter.
The penalty, upon conviction, is a
fine of from so to 800.
An amendment to section of
chapter 10 of the ordinances
was adopted, providing that all
sidewalks must be cleared of snow
by 9 o'clock a. m. following a
snow storm. 1t also provides that
iron or glass coverings of sidewalk
openings must be covered with rubber
mating from Nov. to May of each
year. Such ironc overings have
caused many a tumble in the past,
and they have been condemned by
the public.
An amendment to the ordinance
regulating the placing of signs and
awnings over the street was adopted.
The amendment provides that no
sign shall be suspended from build

STATE TEACHERS ASSOCIA-
TION.

The great event in our state the
past week was the tifty-ninth annual
meeting of the Wisconsin State
Teachers association, held in Mil
waukee. 1t was the largest gather
ing of teachers ever held in the his
tory of the association and President
G. Q. Parlin's address is said to have
been the ablest one ever delivered by
presiding officer of that body. About
so of Wausau's teachers were in at
tendance, headed by Messrs. c. c.
Parlir S. r. Tobey, Karl Mathie and
G. d. Jones. The following officers
were elected for the ensuing year:
President-Mrs. Mary D. Bradford.
First Vice-Pres.-B. E. Mccormick.
Second Vice-Pres.-Miles Thomas.
Treasurer-J. a. Hagemann.
Member of Executive Committee
NJ. V. O'Shea.
Mrs. Bradford is the second woman
president the association has had in
tifty-nine years. She is superintend-
ent of the schools CT Kencsha. She
was formerly connected with the
Stout institute and the Stevens Point
and Mineral Point Normal schools.
The principal events of the program
were the addresses of C. c. Parlin,
Gov. L. E. McGovern, David Starr
Jordan, Booker T. Washington.
A resolution was unanimously
adopted asking for woman suffrage.
One of the states inspectors oil
weights and measures dropped into
ShebOygan unannounced, and in two
hours time he seized forty short
weight scales and a large number Of
bottolnleSS measures. The state:
officials are dead against the latter
for by its use, it is said, a grocery
man can get five short pecks out of Z
bushel. They are being confscateC
as fast as found. When the loca
sealers are appointed, much of tn,

ders of the states inspectors.

DON'T EAT 1T.

Ever since the time when the Wis
conSin river was a small brook the
hunters in this locality, white or In
dian, have always considered venison
good eating. The only trouble has
been in the getting of it, and since
our legislatures have found nothing
better to do than to pass game laws,
many have got ten into trouble get
ting this kind of meat. 1t has been
relished all these years, but it re-
mained for a ShaWanO man in the
year 1911 to make the discovery that
venison, at least at this time is unfit
for use. DR.. Carl E. Stubenvoll of
the Wolf river town, an arm, leg and
appendix carpenter, makes the state
ment that the flesh of deer is inhab-
tied. Deer are dying from cause
which the microscope explains. Mil
lions of parasites are working seven
days in the week on the job, eating
holes through the poor deer's bones,
resembling in magnitude the HoosaC
tunnel.
He claims that an old Indian told
him that the disease is called ischibC
by the red skins, and that about sew
enty years ago there was an epidemic
of it nearly as great as the run OF
measles in Wausau at present. AT
that time the eating of venison
made nearly as many good" Indians
as fire water" and the white mans
civilization have since made.
Perhaps it was ischibo that killed
eighty-six hunters in Wisconsin last
year.
A great many Wausau people are
out this week looking for ischibO.

THERE'S MONEY IN IT.

a number of Wausau gentlemen
are selling stock in an enterprise
which they expect to float next spring,
and are meeting with ready response
from our business men.
1t is proposed to buy some cheap
land out near Rib hill and start a cat
farm. The promoters purpose to
collect about 100000 cats during the
winter, and the cats, it is estimated,
will multiply at an average of twelve
kittens per year. The skins will
average 10 cents for the white ones
and 75c for the ones of pure black.
This will allow 100000 skins a
year, to sell at an average price of
30c each, making a revenue of $9,863-
Ol per day, gross.
One man can skin so cats per day
for $500. AS it will take 100 men to
operate the farm the net profits per
day will be $9,663.Ol.
In connection with this enterprise
a rat farm will also be established to
furnish proyender for the cats. About
100000 rats will be. secured TO start
with. Rats multiply four times as
fast as cats, 50 that therefore each
cat will have four rats per day, which
will be plenty. The rats will be fed
on the carcasses of the skinned cats,
giving each rat a fourth of cat.
BY this arrangement it is seen that
the business will be self supporting,
and will work automatically all the
way through. The cats will eat the
rats and the rats will eat the cats,
and the company will get the skins.
For the benefit of the promoters in
securing cats. the PILOT would suggest
that they write to John G. Trothers
of Neigh, Neb., grain merchant.
John desired to get supply of oats
and worded a newspaper advertise
ment. But typewriters sometimes
make mistakes as one did in his case,
a being substituted for an o, and
here was the result:
Wanted Delivered on track at
Neigh, 10000 bushels of cats. Will
pay highest market price"
Not noticing the error he awaited
results. Within Il week cats began
to arrive from all sections, and the
agent of the Northwestern road was
swamped with felines, and wired the
superintendent for instructions.
That official wired back: Release
all cats not accepted" Still the cats
came, and some days Trothersreceiyed
as many as 500.
