WIDENING THE AVENUE.

The matter of widening out Pros
pect avenue along the two blocks be-
tween Walton and Kickbusch streets
was brought before the board of pub
lie works Friday by Alderman Weis-
brod of the first ward. He called at
tention to the fact that for over four
years the city council had been max
ing arrangements to accomplish this
work, that the city had this winter
paid for the adjoining parcels OF
ground to be used for that purpose,
and that nothing had so far been
done this spring to warrant the COM
pletion of the work. Sidewalks have
been ordered built along this thorough
fare by the city, and property owners
are willing to build them, if they
could only find out where the walks
are to be laid. The Strengthening out
of the bridge at the lower end of
Prospect avenue across the North
western right of way was also dis
cussed, but that is a matter that will
require some hard work on the part
of the council to accomplish satisfac-
tory. AS it is now the bridge is use

PREVENTION OF FOREST FIRES

At meeting of the Northern Hem
lock and Hardwood Manufacturers
association in Milwaukee last week,
the subject of prevention of forest
fires was fully considered. At the
conclusion of the discussion, the sec
rotary was instructed to call meet
ing in Wausau, as soon as possible, of
the timberland owners of Northern
Wisconsin in order to formulate a
plan for the mutual protection of the
owners, or, if found feasible, to ar
range for cooperation with tile North
ern Forest Protective association,
whose work in upper Michigan has
been conspicuously successful.
Experience in the west and in upper
Michigan has shown that such a mu-
tual organization affords by far the
cheapest and most effective means yet
devised to protect timber holdings
from fires. It's best features are the
education of the public to the neces-
sity. of care and handling fires, and in
keeping forest users and the public
fully informed upon the forest fire
laws.
R. S. Kellogg, secretary, has there
fore called a meeting of all timber
land owners in Northern Wisconsin
to be held at the Wausau Club in
Wausau, beginning at 1890 Friday
morning, May 3. Mr.. Thomas B. Wy
man, of Munising, Mich, secretary of
the Northern Forest Protective asso-
citation, will be present 10 explain
fully the plan of operation which has
worked so well in that region.
Every lumberman and timberland
owner who can possibly arrange to do
so, should attend this meeting in
order that an organization may be
perfected before fires begin this year.
Most forest fires can be prevented,
but if allowed to start, few of them
can be stopped.

BRIDGES IN POOR CONDITION.

Quite little anxiety is felt by city
officials over the condition of the falls
and high bridges. City Engineer
Bert Gowan made an inspection of
the former bridge several days ago
and found that it swung to and fro
and quivered to such an extent while
a team was passing over it that he
hurried from his position under the
bridge to place of safety on solid
ground. Mr.. Gowan says, that the
city cannot afford to let teams GO
over the bridge on trot nor at any
rate of speed faster than walk. He
believes that if traffic on the bridge
should ever become congested to any
extent, the structure would surely
drop into the river. High bridge is
In no better condition than the falls
BRIDGE" said Mr.. Gowan, ''and the
council has known that to be the case
Tor long time. / reported on the
condition of that bridge over year
ago, but nothing has been done in
the matter, aside from finding a few
persons for driving over the bridge
faster than the ordinance permits"
Mr.. Gowan recommended that the
board of public works place signs at
the approaches of both bridges, warn
ing teamsters and drivers of all kinds
of rigs to neither drive on or over
them at faster gait than a walk,
and to make the fine $4,000 instead of
$1,000 for. each violation. The mat
ter will be brought before the coun-
Gil at its next meeting, and some
action will have to be taken, to Sc
cure these bridges against collapsing.

WAUSAU IRON WORKS.

The Wausau Iron Works is now
busily engaged in building its large
new iron and brick addition to its
present overcrowded plant. The new
addition will be 100 200 feet which,
together with the old, will cover a
floor space of 80, 900 feet. The founda-
ton for the new is practically COM
pleted and workmen are now indus
triously engaged in manufacturing
the iron roof trUSses and columns for
its construction. A new Tremendous
electric crane is to be installed in the
works, including other machinery for
the more careful and expeditions
handling of its in and outputs. The
works are employing at the present
time fifty-fye hands. When the new
addition is completed, which will be
about July 1st, from Is to IS hands
will be employed. The concern has a
very large amount of work on hand
and is daily booking new orders, which
has necessitated enlargement of this
plant. When taken into consider
alton the short life of this concern
only five years-its growth is phe-
nominal, and shows what grit and
energy will accomplish when the
right spirit is always in the fore
ground. Wausau should take off its
hat to the promulgaters and enter
prising business men connected with
the Wausau Iron Works. The city's
infant industries need fostering and
every encouragement should be given
to help maintain them and thus con-
tinue to make our city the pride
of the Wisconsin river valley.
