(Chatham Record of August 30th.)
Today is the forty-ninth anniver-
sary Of one Of the most important
battles fought and one Of the most
brilliant victories won by h Confed-
rate during the war. On the 30th
of August, 1852, a fought the bat
tie of Second Manassas, as it was
called by the C~onfederates, or second
Bull Run, as it was called by the
FederaIs. It was called Second Ma
nassas or Bull Run because it was on
nearly the same battlefield on which
had been fought the battle Of First
Manassas or Bull Run on the 21st Of
July, 1851. This was quite a remark
able coincidence, that these two bat
ties shOuld have been fought on
nearly the same ground, over a year
apart, and I'll were two Of h most
complete victories won by the Con-
federates during the war.
The numbe Of men engaged in the
second battle We're many more than
those in the first battle. and the Fed
erals lost in killed, and
prisoners in the second battle nearly
as many men as they had fighting IN
the first battle. In the first battle of
Manassas the troops on both sides
were raw volunteers. who had never
been in a battle before, but in the
second battle they were nearly all
seasoned veterans, who had fought III
many battles, particularly in the sew
en- days tghts around Richmond. The
Federal commander was Gen. John
Pope, who had been appointed in
| place Of General Mcclellan. who a
, been displaced because Of his disas-
| trous defeats around Richmond. a few
| weeks before.
This change of commanders PROVED
| most unfortunate for the Federais,
for General Pope proved to be utterly
Incompetent. Notwithstanding his
boastful proclamation or general or
ders issued when he assumed com
mand of the Federal army. His dis
astrous defeat soon after issuing Ills
| boast made him the la~ughing-stock
of both armies. He announced that
his headquarters would be lin the
saddle" that he expected to see only
the back of the rebels" and that he
would easily march his army, not only
to Richmond. but through to New Or
leans. And yet in the first battle
| fought by Pope his HEADQUARTERS and
valuable papers were captured. his
army utterly routed and panic
stricken and fying to the breast
works around Washington for safety.
Rv this victory a large amount Of
valuable property fell into the hands
of the C~onfederates, the most i'm
| portant of which was % 6e0 stands

FIRST DEATH CLAIM.

A dispatch dated Madison and
appearing in the Milwaukee news
papers last week said: "In adjusting
compensation for the death of Edward
Thrall of Mosinee killed in fall
from a ladder, the state industrial
commission this week is settling the
first death claim under the new
workmen's compensation law. Thrall
lost his life on December 5, and a
week later the final settlement was
nearly completed. He was an en-
ployee of the Wausau Sulphate Fibre
company.
Thralls wages amounted to SS5
per month. Under the law, the COM
pensation for his widow ana two
children in four years wages, with
the maximum limit, $1,000. Had he
lived, his four years earnings would
have been over $4,000, but it is es-
timated that the $4,000 allowed will
cover the amount which his depend
ents alone would receive had the man
lived. The compensation as fixed by
the commission, to be paid to the
widow and children, is SLAP week.
This sum will be paid periodically
until $4,000 has been paid"
Edward Thrall is the gentleman
who was killed recently by falling off
a ladder in the above named COM
pany's plant in Mosinee. His home
was in Wausau up to the day he was
killed.

L. B. Cate, who has made his home
in Wausau for the past year or more,
where he has established the Badger
Turpentine Co., spent Sunday and
Monday visiting with his mother and
sister, Mrs. G.. w. and Miss Ruth
Cate, in this city. The plant of this
company has been in successful oper-
alton for only few weeks but is
destined to prove big paying propo-
sition. The turpentine is made from
pine stumps, secured from sut-over
lands, the Older the stumps the bet
ter, and they have enough of these
stumps in sight TO keep the plant
running for a century or more. Fred

Wakefield of this city, is manager
and a stockholder in the enterprise.
The turpentine is secured from the
stumps by a baking process.-The

LITTLE GIRL KILLED.

A most deplorable accident oc-
CURED last Wednesday evening at the
corner of Third and Jefferson streets.
A little girl, Lucy Styza, aged twelve
years, was killed by being run over
by an automobile. 1t was the first
death from such cause TO result in
Wausau, and there has been uni
versal expression of sorrow since,
among automobile owners, that the
fatality occurred.
Mrs. L. H. Hall was driving an
auto along Third street and as she
turned the above mentioned corner
the little girl ran out into the street
in front Of the machine and was
knocked down and killed. When
picked up few seconds later by L. H.
Cook and o. G. Fehlhaber there was
still life, but she died shortly after
being removed to ORA. L. Browns
Office.
The girl when picked up was bleed
ing from the mouth, nose and ears
and was considerably cut up about
the head and face. 1t afterwards
proved that her skull was fractured.
A coroner's jury empanelled re-
turned verdict to the effect thai
the girl came to her death through
accident.
She was daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.

HEINEMANN COMPANY
BUY STEWART MILL.
Will Move to Wausau to Operate Saw
Mill Just Purchased From Alexander
Stewart-Will Begin Operations at
Once.

The B. Heinemann Lumber COM
pany which has operated saw mill
west of this city has just closed a
deal whereby they come into posses
sion of the old Alexander Stewart
mill at Wausau. While the officers
of the company state that they are not
now in position to confirm the news
the information comes from reli-
able source and may be deemed au-
thentic.
By the Heinemann mill moving the
county will lose one of its solid busi-
ness institutions. The mill by re-
moving to Wausau will take thirty
families with it and the little village
which has been built about the mill
will soon be deserted.
1t is understood that the company
will Immediately get things in readi-
ness to begin operations in Wausau,
and that large amount Of timber
from this county will be sent to Wau-
sau to be cut in the mill this winter
People of this city have been hop
ing for some time that the Heine-
mann people would locate in Amigo.
The lumber company is one of the
very few concerns which have a
twenty-five years supply of timber
and it would have made very desir-
able asset i'm the industrial develop
ment of the city. Besides owning
thousands of acres of timber land in
this county the company is heavy
holder of Michigan timber.-Antigo

THIEVES SENTENCED.

That ginseng thieves can be caugh'
ana that the crime of entering anoth
er's ginseng garden, and stealing th'
roots is severely punished under Tn
law, and that ginseng thleyery
therefore not altogether free IRON
snares and pitfalls, was recently prov
en- in case in Shawano.
According to communication re
ceiyed by J. III. Koehler OF this citl
from NJ. G. Eberlein of Shawano, MI
Eberlein's garden near that city wa
entered early last October and rooV
to the value of about 5000 were stolen
The matter was promptly taken III
by the proper authorities and dill
gent search was made for the thieves
1t developed that suspicion polntec
to one, John Cowell, who was arrested
and put through the third degree
process, when he told conflicting stor
les and finally broke down and sale
Nose Kittkon did the stealing
Search was made of Kittkon's house
but nothing was found. Acting Oh
Cowells information Kittkon was
also arrested and put through the
third degree and he claimed thai
Cowell had stolen the ginseng. Fin
ally the two were brought face tc
face, when they both broke down ano
admitted the theft.
They We're taken to Appleton be
fore Judge Coco and, circuit judge
The Judge sentenced each man 10 two
years in the state prison in Waupun
Pictures have been taken of the con-
victs by the prison authorities and
the pictures have been sent to the
secretary of the Wisconsin Ginseng
Growers association, which associa'
tion pays reward of $50 to the par
ties who assisted in the arrest and
conviction of the thieves.
A similar case. was traced near STAN
ley late last summer and one, VIM.
Boetcher, was convicted and sentenced
TO six months in the county Jail OF
Clark county.
A man in Virginia evidently thought
il was poor business to wait until his
ginseng had been stolen, and then go
to the trouble and expense of tracing
the thief. His garden had been
raided on several previous occasions
and he decided that he would run no
more chances. He put set guns in
his garden and put up notices as to
danger for anyone entering the
garden. 1t was not long after when
he found man dead in the garden.
The coroner's jury exonerated him
from all blame criminally. A dam
age suit brought against the owner
of the garden, and tried before jury,
also turned out in his favor.
During the past two years num-
Der of Wausau gardens have been
robbed, in some instances the owners
losing a considerable amount of roots.
After taking care of a garden for
five years, and then having it robbed,
makes a man feel like condemning
the thieves in the strongest terms.

SHOP EARLY

This no doubt will be very busy
week with the merchants of this city,
although most people have done the
bulk of their Christmas buying.
There is however, always rush at
the eleventh hour.
The industrial commission of the
state has issued an appeal to the peo-
pie to do their shopping 'early in the
week and early in the day." to assist
employers, employees and the commits
sion in carrying out the provisions of
the ten-hour Law for women and the
child labor law. The work of lady
clerks is limited to ten hours per day
or tifty-fve per week. The commits
sion says:
'"The laws protecting women and
children workers are among the most
important on the statute books. The
Women'S ten-hOur law of Oregon,
which is similar to that of Wisconsin.
mas been sustained by the supreme
court of the United States in one of
the great opinions of that court.
lAC NOutO DdoOu iOo " dOuIlu-
ant testimony of the medical fraterni-
ty that continuance for long time
on her feet at work, repeating this
from day to day, tends to injurious
effects on the body, and as healthy
mothers are essential to vigorous Off
spring, the physical wellbeing of
women becomes an object of public
interest and care in order to preserve
the strength and vigor of the race.
'"The ten-hour law in Wisconsin
has been eagerly welcomed by thous-
ands of women workers, and is being
conscientiously observed by the best
employers. Any employer who does
not observe it is not only injuring his
own employees but is competing un-
fairly with other employers who are
law abiding and public spirited.
Christmas shoppers, above all
others, should not throw their patron
age to merchants who violate this
law and thereby punish those who
try to live up to il. Remember thatit
is just as easy for customers to be
considerate of the women and chill
dren who serve them as it is selfish TO
impose on their health and comfort.
Shop early in the month, early in the
week and early in the day"
