WILL REBUILD.

The Heinemann Lumber Co., whose
mill at Heinemann, Lincoln Co.,
burned in July of last year, will re-
build it's plant. The Merrill Herald
says that upon being asked by a
Merrill citizen S. Heinemann said:
eyes, it is true that plans are now
being perfected to rebuild our plant
and also to build an auxiliary plant
for the manufacture of such things
that formerly we were obliged to burn
or dispose of as wood; and besides, we
have had to leave a good deal of
timber, not suitable for lumber, in
the woods. We intend to have plant
that will work up everything in the
tree.
eve have not fully made up our
minds as to where we will rebuild.
We have much valuable property on
our former location, which can be
utilized in reconstructing our plant,
and ample space for site, fully pre-
pared for u.s. While there are some
disadvantages in having the plant
located away from our homes, there
are also certain advantages of much
Importance. We are near our timber;
besides the farmers around there
would supply us for many years with
raw materials that we shall need.
'tThen, we find that site such as
we must have would cost considerable
money if located at Merrill. 1 can
think of only one or two places which
would be suitable for our needs, and
these are held pretty high, it seems
to me.
'If We should rebuild our plant at
Merrill, it woald mean that we would
have to sacrifice our property; besides,
it would cost us a considerable sum
to secure and prepare site such as
We should want"

ARRESTS WILL FOLLOW.

A week from tonight will be Hal
lowe'en. This announcement used
to make the young people dance with
fiendish glee, but it will have no such
effect this year. Mayor Lamont
states that the city's policy of the
past two years will be carried out to
the letter this year. That policy is to
arrest any and every one caught that
night in any act against the "peace
and dignity Of the court" 1t won't
make any difference whether its John
Smiths boy or Sam Jones' girl-they
will be jagged and brought into court
next day. Any man or woman with
an ounce of filling in their belfrys
will agree that this is the right stand
to take. In years past, Halloween
vandalism was nothing more than
licensed robbery. One wouldn't shoot
his neighbours children for carrying
away his property, but it got to that
point where the average man felt
like making his own law, and enforc-
ing it with the same line of argument
as used by an insurance agent some
time ago in the Bells House.
Last year several arrests and prose-
cutions resulted. The parents of one
boy who had broken neighbours
window on Halloween, paid good,
stiff fine and that boy got something
from his father which he will long
remember, and it was not sack of
peanuts either. There is a case on
the calendar of the Marathon county
circuit court at present, where six
boys were arrested for carrying off a
mans property that night. This case
has been dragging along in court for
year and it will be a very expensive
nights fun for these boys or their
parents, before a settlement is
reached. Carrying away a mans
doorstep or entering his house and
stealing his pocketbook are both con-
sidered robbery before the eyes of
the law.

GREAT PERFORMANCE.

Our neighboring town of Wausau,
not too far removed, is the home of an
amateur aviator John Schwister who,
if the Wrights had not done the same
deeds before, would be the talk of
the world. Alone and presumably I'M
aided, he has designed, built and flown
an aeroplane exactly as the Wrights
did at the beginning of the recent
epoch of aeroplane history. On Sun
day of this week he flew twenty-seven
miles in thirty-four minutes, at an
altitude of from 300 to 1900 feet.
This is a remarkable performance.
1t is not as remarkable as the original
Wright performances because the
Wausau flyer could take advantage Of
what has been done by others, but it
is remarkable enough to entitle the
man to very large need of praise

TUESDAY MUSICAL CLUB.
Winter Course to Be an Exceptionally
Fine One-Praised by Miss Waldo.

From present indications the course
of recitals given under the auspices
of the Tuesday Musical club promises
to meet with all the success and
patronage = deserves.
Through the courtesy of the MEM
bers of the Wausau club the ladies
are allowed the use of the Wausau
club house and the informal charac-
ter of the entertainments, where all
may be near the artist, lends a charm
that is quite out of the question in q
large auditorium.
Socially as well as artistically these
recitals will be the event of the win
ter. The variety the course offers
this winter makes it most attractive.
The first number, Cecil Tanning, a
baritone of national reputation,
brings with him an accompanist, who
assists not only at the piano, but with
Introductory explanations, with re-
spect to the music, which always
adds interest to program.
Miss Powell has announced change
of date, her recital will be given on
November 10, taking the second place
in the course. Miss Powell has no
peer in her realm and is so well known
that it is unnecessary TO rehearSe her
attainment.
Miss Helen Waldo who charmed
many people-guests of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Alexander and Mr.. and Mrs
G. S. Gilbert last Tuesday evening at
the pavilion, spoke most enthusiastic
ally of all the numbers in the course,
but most particularly of Miss Powell
and Miss Ormond. OF Miss Lila
Ormond she said that both her person
atty and her art charmed her hearers
everywhere she sang. OF Mr..
Grouppe, cellist, the London Tele-
graph -"There are few if any
that could be counted as hissuperiOr."
Miss Christina Miller enjoys the
distinction this season in appearing
with the Symphonic orchestra of
Boston, New York, Pittsburg, Cincin-
natl, Toronto and Minneapolis. What
more could Wausau hope to offer in
the way of an attraction.
In accordance with rule of the
Wausau club. no tickets will be sold
at the door. Consequently it is hoped
that all those intending to purchase
tickets will secure them either from
some member of the committee or at
Ingrahams jewelry store.

Thackeray's First Poem.

Thackeray's momentous first appear
ance in print was a satirical poem,
published in the Western Luminary
during one of the happy holiday times
which he spent in Devonshire, when
still scholar at the Charterhouse. A
certain Mr.. Lalor She'll was to have
delivered a speech upon Penendon
Heath, but the crowd refused to hear
him. He had taken the precaution,
however, to send copies of his intend
ed grafton to all the leading journals
before leaving town, and these, Of
course, printed it. The judicrous Incl
dent inspired Thackeray to write a
little jeu d'esprit, entitled Irish Mel
ody," telling how Mister Shell" when
the men of Kent began grevious
shouting" found comfort in rejecting
My speech is safe in the Times l

CHILD BURNED.


Norma. daughter of Mr.. and MIS-.
Richard Bauman of the town OF Ber-
lin, was burned to death yesterday
The child vas the youngest OF Uhree
ard was less than seven months olu'
The mother was called upon 10 90
some work out in the yard and locRec
the three children in the house, so
that they could not get out and eaten
cold. She was gone but short tlIne
and when she returned and opened
the door there was stifiing smell
and the house was full of smoke. She
ran to the baby buggy, where she hao
left the youngest child, and carried IL
outside and then got the other Two
children out. The second Oldest one
had nearly suffocated and it required
considerable effort to return the little
one to consciousness. An examlna-
ton showed that the baby was burned
to an unacceptable crisp.
The family kept the matches in a
box nailed to the wall, at height
where d grown person would have
quite reach in getting one. Below
the match box was sewing machine,
and the presumption is that the old
est child, aged four years, placed
something on top of the sewing ma
chine. and then climbed on top and
got some matches and scratched
them, setting fire to the clothing in
the baby's buggy.
The funeral was held this after
noon from the home and Lutheran
church of that town.

Cure for Laziness.

Instead of reprimanding the office
boy for soldering over his work the
manager unctiously requested him to
count the ticking of the clock for five
minutes. For five minutes the boy
counted. At the last second he at
tackled his work with unusual earnest
ness and for the rest Of the day his
interest never tagged.
"That is a scheme they tried on me
when was a youngster and inclined
to be lazy" the manager said. ITO
this day l do not know the secret OF
its success, but 1 know that to DELHI
erately count the ticking of clock
will cure the worst spell of incidence.

BILLS COMING.

You will hear rumbling noise
next Thursday morning at about four
O'Clock, which will sound something
like Kansas cyclone. No damage,
however, will result, and the fact of
the occurrence will never be engrossed
on the scrolls of history. 1t may pass
from your mind in very short time.
1t is not very likely that many peo-
pie will get up to investigate the
cause of all this disturbance, for it
will be at time when most of us
will be doing double duty on the
sleep job. The fact of the matter is
that Billy Taft's special will go
through here at that time and will not
even stop to take water, for super
abundance of liquids is presumed to
be carried in the refrigerator Car.
Bill, too, will be asleep and won't
care a ding whether it's Wausau or
Podunk he's passing through. He
will be on his way to Green Bay,
where he will probably tell the peo-
pie what he thinks of some people
led by a pompadoured gentleman.
Bill is quite traveller. Of late he
has been carrying his smile all over
the United States, exhibiting it. 1t
is quite likely that the muscles Of
his right arm have frightened up in
the last few weeks, for he has been
doing the pump handle act where
ever the opportunity presented itself.

where we intimated that his special
would not pass through here. Later
information causes us to put that
statement into cold STORAGE
