SAME I odd TRICK
MEN THAT WERE IN TROUBLE
HERE PUT UP SAME PLEA AT
cLARkS5uRe. vi .t

We. note by a Clarksburg paper that
Lou Griffith was arrested In that city
on the night OF the 18th OF this month,
and put up q claim to the mayor that
he had been robbed OF $4,000, and that
he did not have any money. but after
the mayor had imposed a fine OF $500
and costs, they scraped up the money
and paid out.
Then on the next day they were ar
rested in this city for drinking on a
car, mad were taken before Justice
Amos for trial and put up the same
plea. that Griffith had been robbed
and had no money. but after the
Squire had fined them $500 each and
costs, Griffith paid out, but John Riggs
stated that he had no money, and was
therefore searched preparatory TO be-
Ing placed in jail, when he was found
to have about $4,000 on his person.
After staying In I'LL for about three
hours he called the jailor and stated
that he wanted TO pay out, and was
therefore released.
1t must. be habit with these men
TO play on the sympathies of the au.
thorities with tales OF having been
robbed.

the Mcnamara brothers us "depravet
criminals who have on their scared
souls the murder of so many innocent
persons" Theodore Roosevelt in ar
editorial entitled Murder is Murder
gives his view on the famous dyna
mlting case in the current issue oI
the Outlook.
Colonel Roosevelt decries any ex
presslons OF sympathy for the con
fessed dynamIters because they
thought they acted in what they re-
garded as war on behalf Of theiI
class" as plea "monstrous in Its
folly and It's wickedness."
He says in part:
"The murders committed by the
the interest Of organlzeb labor, differ
not one whit in moral culpability
from those committed by the Black
Hand, or any band of mere cut
ithroats and are fraught with an In
finitely heavier menace 10 society.
Yet, great though the menace is tc
the community, the menace TO the
cause OF honest organized labor Is
still greater u
The former president bitterly
scores the labor leaders who cham
pioned the cause OF the McNamaras
"as they did that OF Meyer and Hay
wood" declaring they have rendered
an evil service to the union cause
He insists that he believed In unions
but that all workers must "set their
faces like flint against any effort tc
identify the cause OF organized labor
directly or Indirectly. with any
movement which in any shape or way
benefits by the commission of crime
of lawless and murderous violence"

SAW THE FISH.

DIR. E. f. Butler and G. M, Goggins
of Mosinee, came up to the big city
Wednesday to attend the G. 0. 2.
convention, and went through an ex-
perience neither cares to have re-
peated. Going down to the pavilion
in the evening they hired canoe and
started out to explore and make a
chart of lake Wausau, but they
proved to be poor navigators. Their
canoe upset and they went down,
down, doWn-not three times, but only
once, and what they saw down there
they were too excited to make note
of in their books. The doctor, when
he arose to the surface, struck out
for shore, but he will never take a
prize in a swimming contest, and was
nearly out of oxygen when he reached
port. He had just enough ozone left
in him to feebly cry, "Man over
board" and d number of men came
to the mariners assistance. The
school teacher was afraid those on
shore might laugh at his efforts at
swimr1iug, 50 ne went down to the
bottom and crawled out on his hands
and knees. He, too, was about all in
when put in dry dock by the crowd
on shore, and didn't have enough wind
left to say gosh"
A frai :anoe is like an unbroken
broncho you never can tell when one
is going to upset you.

ow and Richard BALI were arrested
Wednesday, charged with the theft
of number of bicycles which have
disappeared in the city This spring. A
wheel was brought to the repair shop
of Nj. Nutter, which he recognized as
one stolen recently from Otto Lang
fell. A search of young Balz's home
brought forth two other bicycles and
other articles which had been stolen.
The boys were bound over for trial
in municipal court, but on Thursday
young BALI was committed to the in
dustrial school,
A few weeks ago number of wheels
disappeared, and no trace of them
could be found. 1t appears that after
they were stolen they were taken out
to the BALI farm in the town of
Wausau, and kept there.

The old sawmill of B. f. Mcmillan
in the village of Mcmillan is soon to
be torn down. This is one of the old
est mills in the county and was con-
strurted in 1874 In the winter of
that year Mr.. Mcmillan sawed the
first log n the mill, and on the day of
last week above mentioned-iuSt
thirty-seyen years later-the last log
was run through the mill. A crew
was then set 10 work tearing down
the structure.
The mill was operated every season
since it was built. sometimes day and
night. The only alterations ever
made was reshing ing and few occa-
sional repairs.
That section Of Marathon county
which was wilderness when Mr.. Nc
MILAN entered it, has developed into
a farming country.
During all these years Mr.. Mcmillan
has personally supervised the work of
driving logs and saving them in the
mill.
Since its construction there has
never been fatality IN the mill, al
though several men have been killed
in the woods and drowned in the
pond
As finale to the closing of the
mill there was a family reunion on
Thursday, at which relatives as far
distant as Oklahoma were present.

WORKS FOR PURITY LEAGUE.

Rev. Frederick Nickel, whose home
is at Arcadia, Wis, is in the city ell
deavoring to interest Wausau people in
the work of the American Purity
league, and, eventually, in the organi-
zation of local branch. He is field
secretary. According to the number
of signatures which Mr.. Nickel has re-
ceiyed during his first weeks campaign
many Of the prominent people and lead
ers of various activities in Wausau are
in hearty accord with the work.
Mr.. Nickel explains that the league,
headquarters of which are at Lacrosse,
is non-Sectarian and national in scope.
Its purposes, he says, are the cultiva-
tion ofpersonal, marital and social pur-
ity, and righteousness and enlighten-
ment along lines denoted by the term,
''social purity" Ideals and character
are upbuilded through the aid of the
league, he says.
The leagues official publication,

against the "White Slave Traffic" and
against other vices, and publishes also
the laws bearing On these matters.

ROBBERIES.

Several robberies occurred the past
week, all evidently committed by the
same parties. On Tuesday even
ing All attempt was made to rob
the living rooms over the store of
Wm. Ebersold in Parcherville. Mrs.
Ebersold was awakened during the
night by noise. She got out of bed
and saw that man on a ladder was
trying to get into the house. An out
cry from the woman scared the man
off the job and he and a companion
ran into the Jacob Mortenson lumber
yard. Securing the assistance of the
night watchman at the mill and
another man, Mrs. Ebersold started
in pursuit, and stranger was soon
rour up, whom the woman
recognized as the one who had tried
to invade her premises. He was
marched toward town, until an officer
was met, when he was turned over to
the latter. Upon being searched at
the police station the fellow was
found to be in his possession of slung
shot, such as highwaymen carry. He
is Polander, unable to speak English.
The same evening someone entered
the living rooms over the Struck &
Holman saloon near the St. Paul
depot, and stole %s0ch belonging to
Mrs. John Helke. The man arrested
in Parcheryille admitted that he had
spent part of the night around the
ST. Paul depot, but if he is the party
who stole the watch he must have
planned it.
The following night the hotel at
Wausau Jet. occupied mostly by
railroad men, was entered. A ladder
was hoisted to second story window,
and the intruder ransacked nearly
every room. So far as is learned, all
that was taken was gold watch and
less than S. IN cash
The presumption is that all of the
jobs are the work of one gang.

field along the roadway leading to
the Gehrke pasture, and he alleges

Thursday.
Otto Feck, painter, res siding at
125 N. First Ave-, was shot through

brother, Feck entered his parents
house and shortly thereafter the re-
port of gun was heard. He came
out of the house, walked a short
distance and fell He was then re-
moved to the county hospital, where
it was found that his wound was not
dangerous, unless complications set
in. The young man refuses to state
whether the shooting was accidental
or intentional.
The st. Paul road has again changed
time, the new time card taking effect

what is known as the "fish train,"
which is the north bound morning
train with time changed from S:55 TO
6:35. Coming down in the evening the
train reaches here at SAP now insCead
of 1856. The change of time MAKES it
handy for tourists going north. IT is
also an accommodation TO every body
else except for those who spend half
of the forenoon n bed. The above
change does not affect the train on
Sunday. IL runs on the same sched-
ule as usual.
