0Want Some of
THE BLACK SHELLS

That is what you should say if you want to
get from your dealer the newest and best thing
in shotgun ammunition he has on his shelves.
THE BLACK SHELLS are meant for the
shooter who is not satisfied with just good shells,
but who wants to take advantage of every
improvement which will bring him better
shooting results.
The construction of THE BLACK SHELLS
is improved in many ways. They have solid
head. The primer sets into the head itself
there is no chance for the explosion gas to leak
back into the breech-every bit of force goes
forward into the charge.
Our NON-MERCURIC PRIMER is fast,
unvarying, and absolutely sure. Combined with
our FLASH PASSAGE 1.-THE hole in the
head through which the fame from the primer
reaches the charge) which is 1907 larger than
in ordinary shells, it gives quickness and
certainty of ignition that will surprise you.
Every shooter knows how disastrous to good
score a hang-6re of even the smallest fraction
of second may be.
Give THE BLACK SHELLS trial, it's all we
ask. They are in three classes
ROMAX. a black powder shell with SIG in base.
CLIMAX, the most popular smokeless Doth dense
and bulk) shell made. Has one-haf inch base.
AJAX is the highest grade smokeless Doth dense
and bulk shell made Has long one inch brass base
Send for book about shells. If you enclose 1Oc we
will send beautiful colored poster 20x30 in. called
October Days.. Sure to please every shooter.

NEITHER a borrower nor lender be-!
= That's what Polonius said; but h
wasn't literary man. The other day on
of the craft borrowed cent off another O
the same persuasion. 1t was all the latte
had. The day afterward the borrower actu
ally returned the cent with the followin,
lines as interest:
When all my money once was spent,
You paid me the great compliment
Of lending me welcome cent
Well just to make precedent,
l now return you what you lent;
And Please forget the incident,
For, now I've paid my weekly rent,
I'll stint myself to this extent
But keep the money in event

to draw an ordinance which will pro-
vide that hereafter all sewer con-
struction on any and every street
shall be equalized between the city
and abutting property owners on one
basis.
1t was ordered that a man be Sc
cured at a salary of $50 per month, to
take care Of the dumping grounds and
to pack and ship all dead horses, etc.,
the city to derive the benefit of the
sale OF soapgrease. This action was
taken because the Wisconsin Render
ing Co., an outside concern which has
been doing the work, wanted an ad-
vance of $40 per month.
The board of public works was in
structed to purchase the Treutel
property on Third Ave. for $1,000,
the price asked, so that the street
leading to Werle's addition can be
Widened.
The order given property owners on
the Sturgeon Eddy road, to build
sidewalks, was ordered to be carried
out. The property owners have pro-
tested the order, some claiming that
there are walks nearer the heart of
the city which require the city's at
tention more so than down in the
Sturgeon Eddy district. There is a
stretch of a hundred feet on Third
street, between the court house and
the ST. Paul railroad tracks where no
walk has ever been built.

CITY COUNCIL.

At last Tuesday evenings's meeting
of the city council the following reso-
luton was introduced by Alderman
Schmidt and was passed by vote of
11-5:
WHEREAS, the game known as foot
ball is dangerous game, and often
results in permanent bodily injuries !:
therefore be it
ReSOtUed, that the city attorney be,
and hereby is, instructed to draft an
ordinance prohibiting the playing of
football in the limits of the city of
Wausau; further be it
ReSOLUed, that the chief of police is
instructed to enforce said ordinance
after its passage and publication.
Before vote was taken the matter
was discussed and the general opinion
expressed was that the game is as
rough as the prize fighting game,
which is barred in most cities.
A petition signed by nearly all the
shop owners and business men of the
city was read, protesting against the
councils order for the removal of
signs. A motion to refer the matter
to the committee on streets and
bridges and the city attorney, that
the Old ordinance be amended, was
carried. BY the terms OF the motion
the owners of signs are given thirty
days of grace.
The following resolution was passed:
ReSolUed, that the mayor be, and he
is hereby directed to appoint pursuant
to the provisions of chapter 500 of the
laws of Wisconsin, for 1911, a city seal
er of weights and measures from the
list of eligibles which may be furn-
ished by the state civil service board,
under the rules of said board, rs soon
as may be, after such list shall be so
furnished, whose powers and duties
shall be such as are prescribed by law
and the ordinances of the city relat-
ing to weights and measures, which
have or may hereafter be adopted.
Further
ReSolUed, that the salary of such
sealer of weights and measures shall
be, until changed, according to law,
the sum of nine hundred dollars per
annum.
ReSOIred, that the judiciary COM
mittee and the city attorney be, and
they are hereby directed, to draft a
report to the council for its cOnsidera-
tion, such proper ordinance or ordi-
nances relating to weights and meas
sures, and supplementing the state
laws on the subject, as in their iudg-
ment may be necessary or eXpedient
for the proper protection of the pub
lie in the city.
