GREATER UNITED SHOWS.
A Carnival Given Here Under the
Auspices Of Company G.

The best, cleanest and brightest
carnival ever given in Wausau is now
in full blast. 1t is being held under
the auspices of Co. G., Wisconsin
National Guard, and promises to be
highly successful. The attendance
will be heavy. The twenty-four cars
carrying the many high class attrac-
tions of the Greater United Shows
arrived in Wausau early Monday
morning. Within an hour after the
train had been parked near the carni-
val grounds, tents began TO spring up
like mushrooms and by noon every
thing was in perfect readiness for the
big first night opening. Probably no
carnival company in the country car
ries more pretentious lot of midway
attractions than the Greater United
Shows-one of the most successful Ca
CARNATIONS of its kind in the world.
Every show is first class and far above
the average.
The feature show-the one that
promises to be the most popular here
lis the old fashioned one ring circus
combined with trained wild animal
exhibition. Every one is pleased
immensely. All sorts of wild animals
perform with almost human inteili-
gence, while beautiful and costly
horses aid in making the performance
an 1S-karet one. Then, too, there is
the electric city-a mechanical marvel
and worth going long way to see
that will undoubtedly prove favorite.
Princess Maxine, the only trained mule
in the world-will undoubtedly be
visited by hundreds, while Hamilton'S
big world wonder shows will justly
get its share Of the heavy patronage.

trich farm, Col. Frederic Sheldoa's

FINE CROPS.

w. r. Chellis drove over to Medford
Sunday in his automobile, going
through the northern part of this
county. He says he never saw such
fine crops as were brought to his view
along the route. He says that
farmers are beginning to cut hay and
the yield per acre will be immense.
On the other hand John Lamont
drove out on the Nutterville road one
day last week ard reports that he
saw evidences of the devastation of
the cut worm along his route. Sizing
up reports from all over the county
we would say that Marathon county
will produce a crop this year that will
result in 'bustingi the straps on the
farmers pocket books. They won't
sell their cattle next fall TO avoid
buying feed.

DUSTY.

The county, for the most part, has
suff red drought for the past three
weeks, though the little rain which
fell yesterday will do considerable
good, if it extended over a wide
enough territory. Travelling in the
country of late has been anything but
pleasant. On the main travelled roads
there have been or inches of finely
powdered sand, which would arise in
clouds when the horses feet ploughed
through it. Farmers coming into
town had enough of Marathon county
soil on their backs and hats TO raise a
fair crop of potatoes.

NOT A TRAMP.

In a recent issue of the PILOT, in
making mention of young man who
the flag staff on the court
house and adjusted pulley and put in
the rope so that the flag could be
raised, we referred to him as tramp,
in fact it had been told TO us that he
was in the city and out again the
same day. We were in error and mis-
informed, he is very worthy and in
dustrious young man of the name
Albert Belmore, who resides in our
city, and he can break log jam,
ride log or tell good piece of lum-
Der as we'll as he can climb flag
staff-and all who saw him do the
latter say that he is certainly won
der. The PILOT regrets that the error
should have occurred.

pay for the advertisement several
times over. Mr.. Felder's letters is as
