While removing the supports ander
the brick above the door in Dr.
Thielke's new barn this morning the
wall cracked and sagged enough to
warn the workmen to let the brace
remain. The mortar had not set
firmly.
On Sunday it was thought thai
Herman Krause, lying in st. Mary's
hospital, could not survive the day.
At the time of the st. James church
accident several of the mans ribs
were broken and driven into his
lungs. His recovery is matter of
doubt.
One of the greatest bargains offered
in this city in long time can be had
from Oct. 5 to I at the Frank Kurth
hardware store, POT Washington st.
With every purchase of Clermont
range or base burner you save from
50 to Sc and at the same time have
your choice of a set of silverware or
golden oak rocker.
AS the season is drawing to d close
it is not likely that any more macad-
amizing will be done this year. The
only piece of new road made this year
was short stretch on Bridge street
between the railroad tracks and
Third. The matchmaking program
was cut short this season owing to
the heavy expense of repaving Third
street. AS a consequence the city
will be obliged to buy but little rock
the coming winter.
The city comptroller has been mott
fed by the manufacturers that the
posts for the ornamental lights which
are to be placed on Washington and
Scott streets, have been loaded onto
cars and are on the way here-good
news, if true. The ST. Paul firm
which is making them has supplied
the same information so often that it
has become a standing joke, and is
viewed with suspicion. However,
We'll have those lights some time-in
the sweet bye and bye.
Tickets for the colonial vaudeville
may be secured at Fred Burt's barber
shop, Bert Swanberg's drug store, or
Ingraham's jewelry store. Prices so

A new time table went into effect
yesterday on the G. & n. w. Ry. The
train which formerly got in here from
the east at 200 a. m. arrives five
minutes later. This gives people
coming down, from the north on the
main line limited an opportunity to
get into WauSau or other towns on
this branch, every day in the week.
The train going east at $40 p. m. will
leave at $50 hereafter, and the one
going west at 2:45 p. m. will depart
at 2:3S.
There was great excitement at
engine house No. this morning. Ted
Doonen was caught polishir the old
silver horn and making it shine like j
nigger's heel. This horn was p, Is Mt
ed to the old volunteer fire depart
ment in 1869 by the Hon. w. D.
McIndoe. 1t is a valued ornament in
the engine house Office, and the boys
would rather lose a weeks meals than
to part with that old reminder of
other days. Its purpose was to sum-
mon the water pail and hand pump
engine brigade whenever there was a
fire, but its days of usefulness passed
when paid fire department came
into being.
Parties owning tracts of soft elm
timber would do well TO look after
that product closer than formerly. as
that kind of timber is coming into
market at an exceedingly rapid pace
1t is now used as an interior finishing
wood, in place of the more expensive
hardWoods. The makers of chairs
are also using it extensively, on &C.
count of its strength and durability
! Some years ago it is said Wiscon
7 sin firm took soft elm and immersed
) the wood in some kind of stain. anc
J after it came out and was kiln drieC
: and ready to work, called it cherry
: but the demand was 50 light that i
!. did not pay TO continue its manufac
ture>at that time.
