AMENDE HONORABLE.

The PILOT publicly apologies for
the error it made recently Gninten-
tional, however. l thought best to
dose after receiving the following from
the trenchant pen Of Grandpa Max
son, which is self explanatory
SHELL, WYOMING, Jan. %, 1912.
FRIEND THAYER -
Newspapermen are proverbial for
their shreWdness in detecting false ru-
mors and running them to earth.
Such rumors sometimes come with
such apparent, and probably antici-
pated, truthfulness, that even the
elect may be deceived thereby. This
preamble is simply to call attention
to a short note in the Pilot of Jan.
10th which is but just received. The
note referred to mentioned the birth
of a son to Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Even
of Shell, Wyoming, Jan. II. The
fact is that an eight pound daughter
was born to the above mentioned pa
rents at els p. M, Jan. 10Th. The
error probably originated in some mis-
chiev0uS "goak" perpetrated on
friends and thus found its way into
news columns. The grandpa and
grandma of the little lady hope to
greet Wausau friends within the next
month. Yours truly,
GRANDPA 40 times) MANSON.
The information that Mr.. and Mrs.
Maxson are soon to return home is
very pleasing to all.

THE BIG STORE
ROCK WANTED.
The Marathon Paper Mills Company
Offers $500 Per Cord Deliv-
cred At Its Mill.

The PILOT calls attention to the adj
vertisement of the Marathon Paper
Mills company in its issue of today.
The company finds it necessary to
make changes in its large plant and
therefore wants a large amount of
rock which must be delivered during
the time sleighing lasts. The COM
pany will pay $500 a cord delivered
at Rothschild. 1t will pay S4.0O day
for teams with free stabling room at
the mill stables; it will board men at
reasonable rates rock can be gotten
from the hills near at hand 10 which
the road has been iced; it is mostly
down grade from the hill to the
dumping ground at Rothschild.
Here is a chance for the farmers
of our county and others who
own teams to make some money during
the next month. The price paid is
higher than is being paid anywhere
in this section. Read the advertis-
ment and get busy.

BUSINESS PURCHASE.
A. w. Mumm Has Disposed of His Book
and Stationery Business to
Ralph Collie.

For several weeks it has been ru-
mored that A.,,W. Mumm had disposed
of his we'll established book and STA
tionery store to Ralph Collie. There
was nothing tangible at that time
but because of the taking of inven-
tory in which Mr.. Collie was inter
ested, gave some credence to the ru-
nor. However, the past week the
sale was consummated and Mr.. Collie
is the owner of the business and will
take possession of the same next
Thursday, Feb. 1st. Mr.. Collie iswell
known to our people, having made
his home here steadily for the past
four years as manager of the Wausau
Quartz company. That he has con-
cluded to enter into business and be-
come permanently located here, is a
source of much pleasure to his hosts
of friends.
This means that Mr.. ana Mrs. A.
w. Mumm are to depart from Wau-
sau which is deeply regretted by the
community in general. Mr.. and Mrs.
Mumm came to Wausau about twenty
years ago from Whitewater and he
has been in business practically since
that time. Mr.. Mumm's plans are 70
depart for Sacramento, Cal, in the
Spring, where he owns a fruit ranch.
During the time he will dispose of his
other interests here and in OcOnto
county. Mrs. Mumm and daughter,
Miss Beulah, and son, Robert, will re-
main east until little later and then
go west to join him.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mumm have been
prominent citizens of our city. They
are members of the First Church of
Christ, Scientist. Mr. Mumm is men,
Der of the Masonic Order and Knights
of Pythias. They have prospered here
and enjoyed our city and their hosts
Of friends have cause to feel deeply
their departure. They leave here
with the idea of lettering their con-
dition and to enjoy the milder climate
of the golden state which al. sincerely
hope they will find equal to their ex-
pectations.

In BUSINESS FOR SELF.

Mr.. r. w. Collie, former assistant
postmaster at Merrill, graduate of the
state university, is to enter into bust
on his own hook at Wausau, having
bought out the A. w. Mumm book
store. Since he graduated from the
state university Mr.. Collie has been
manager of the quartz mill at Wau-
Sau.
Mr.. Collie is bright young man
of the stuff that succeeds in life.
When just out of the High school, he
was appointed assistant postmaster,
and did his work in highly salts
factory and admirable manner.
When he resigned to enter the state
university, he did so to the regret Of
his superior official. Mr.. Collie is
probably the youngest man to hold so
important a position.
The many Merrill friends of Mr..
Collie will wish him abundant success
in his new Merrill Herald.
