A Messenger Rewarded.

David Trousdale, the Wells Fargo
Express messenger who killed two
bandits who recently held up
Southern Pacific train near FL
bridge, Texas, and attempted to
rob the express car, has been given
the best run in the Wells Fargo SER
vice. Trousdale's promotion makes
him supervising messenger between
San Antonio and Houston, Texas, at
a salary of $1,000 a year. In addi-
ton to his promotion, he was pre-
sented with 81, 200 and $3.50 gold
watch by the express company and
a purse of 800 subscribed by the
passengers on the train at the time,
all of which is a splendid reward for
his courage in defending the occu-
pants of the train and property and
safe-keeping of the express COM
pary's funds.

DEATH OF F. SCHUBRING, SIR.

Another of the old pioneers of
Marathon county was called to the
great beyond last Thursday, when
Fred Schubring, ST., of the town of
Wausau, succumbed to complication
of diseases. He was resident of this
county for almost fifty years, very
nearly all of which time he has lived
on his farm in the town of Wausau,
he also having been one of the most
successful farmers in the county. He
served his town as it's treasurer for
several years and for thirty years as
its chairman. OF late years he had
retired from active work and with
his wife lived on the old homestead
leaving the management of the farm
to his sons. Mr.. Schubring was born
in the province of Pommern, Ger
many, January 81, 1888. In 1863 he
came to the United States, locating
at once in the town of Wausau.
After spending two years here he re-
turned to Germany to wed Emily
Ventzke, and with her returned to
this country to make their future
home. Besides his widow, four chill
dren survive him, they being Fred
Schubring, Jr., of this city, Reinhold,
Leo and Erick of the town of Wau-
sau. A sister living in Germany and
brother in Idaho also survive him.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon at 1:30 o'clock from the Evan
gelical Lutheran Trinity church in
the town of Wausau. Rev. M. Bur-
ger of1iciated.

WHO WILL MANAGE YOUR
PROPERTY AFTER YOUR
DEATH

You cannot carry out the provisions
Of your own will. You must select
someone to do it for you. The enc
so chosen is called an executor. he
executes or carries out the terms of
your will. By naming this person in
the will you will know by whom YOUR
business is to be managed and con-
trolled after your death If no will
is made the person who is to carry on
your business cannot be ascertained
until after your death. The ore so
chosen may not be a capable business
man or may not have knowledge of
the law, in which event it will be
necessary for him TO employ attor-
neys. Again, a person so appointed
may, after partially completing the
management of your estate, die. 90
away, or become sick, in which event
the whole matter has again to be
gone over and another person selected.
1t often times happens that there is
a contest among relatives, where
there is 10 will, as to who should act
as administrator of the estate. This
is expensive and is likely to fritter
away the benefits that your family
would otherwise receive.
If YOU wish to protect your estate
against these contingencies you should
name as your executor the Wisconsin
Valley Trust Company, of Wausau.
Wisconsin, the officers of which are
all men of the highest business abil-
ity, and are giving this busin ess their
best thought and attention.

UNION MEETING AT NJ. E.
CHURCH.

At the union meeting held Sunday
evening at the First Methodist church,
L. +. Bower, yice-president of the
Allis-Chalmers company of Milwau-
kee, spoke to a very attentive audi
ence, his subject being Christian
Commercialism. His talk was on
the application of business methods
to christianity and he showed how
uneconomic christianity was being
practiced throughout our whole coun-
try. He said that the existing condi-
lions perhaps would not be remedied
in the near future, but change must
and would come and then the adopted
reforms would prove a Blessing to all
mankind.
In the afternoon Mr.. Bower spoke
at the Y. NJ. G. A., addressing the
mems meeting. Owing to the incle-
ment weather the meetings were not
as largely attended as the talks of
Mr.. Bower deserved.

The Sinking of the Titanic.

To the civilized world the news of
the sinking of the Titanic Drought
horror and grief. Sympathy for
the living and sorrow for the hun
dreds of lives lost are universal A
splendid ship, the greatest in the
Atlantic passenger service and the
latest production of the shipbuild-
er's art, with all the appliances and
devices for safety known, has been
swallowed up by the sea.
Great disasters teach humility.
Pride ii the increase of human
knowledge, confidence in mans abil-
ity to conquer Nature are rudely
shaken by them. Ocean travel had
become so relatively safe, so pleas
ant and so luxurious that the pas
sengers of the Titanic embarked
with confidence and light hearts.
In the night came the sudden and
awful shock. The morning found
alive less than half those who had
been aboard.
Out of this calamity, as out of
other calamities, should come know
lege, though at frightful cost.
Water-tight compartments appar-
emily are not always effective
against consequences of a collision;
the iceberg is still a peril, as it was
when man first sailed into the dim
northern seas. The wireless brought
succor, but not for most of those
on the stricken ship.
The heart of humanity will thrill
over the spirit that sent women and
children to the boats first. That
has been the law of disasters at sea
since manly men sailed it, and it
should always be the law. Honor
to the dead who persisted that
others might livel-Chicago Record

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the dis s.sed portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition of the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it Is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the inflam-
nation can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces

Murdered by Speed Madness.

Making a record !
That is why the Titanic lies at the
bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
That is why the lives of fully l.
500 men and women have been
swallowed up in the sea.
That is why more than 700 sur
vivors have been dragged through
scenes of horror and suffering even
less merciful than the death that
came to the other victims Cf the
tragedy.
That is the story of the greatest
steamship disaster of modern times.
Murdered by speed madness is
the epitaph of the dead.
The largest, costliest and finest of
ocean liners was racing to New
York on her first voyage. The
season of heaviest European travel
was about to begin. Competition
in speed and luxury is keen and re-
morseless. 1t was profitable to
show the American millionaires,
who swarm to Europe every year
and who are willing to pay unlimited
prices for accommodations, what
the new steamship could do.
The managing director of the
corporation that owned the liner
was on board. One of the directors
of the corporation that built her
was on board. Her passenger list
contained the names of men of
great wealth and wide reputation.
A record meant invaluable adver-
Using, and so the Titantic was
driven at full speed through an ice
field until she crashed into an ice
berg that ripped open her side,
exploded her boilers, destroyed the
ship and left only a third of her
company to tell the tale.
The Titantic had been warned of
the ice field by other vessels. She
had acknowledged these warnings
with thanks only few hours before
she struck. But her speed was not
diminished. She plunged on at the
rate of twenty-three knots an hour,
concerned only with the record OF
her maiden trip, as shown by the
information given by many of her
survivors to The Worlds CORES
pendent aboard the Carpathia.
The thing that her builders be-
lieved could never happen was the
very thing that happened. And
when the disaster came there was
no means of saving more than a
fraction of passengers and crew.
In spite of all the magnificent
heroism of her officers and men; in
spite of all the magnificent heroism
of her passengers, the number of
saved could not exceed the capacity
of the life-boats, and the capacity
of the life-boats did not exceed one
third the number of persons on
board.
1t is not pleasant to write this
story of criminal carelessness. It
is not pleasant to censure the cour-
ageous and honorable captain who
went down with his ship. 1t is not
pleasant to tell the cold truth about
Mr.. ]. Bruce Ismay, the managing
director of the White Star line, who
was on board and who was morally
responsible for the conduct of his
subordinates. But facts are facts.
This is a case where dead men
tell tales, and the tales are tales of
recklessness that amount to crime,
for which the public that has en-
couraged and infamed this speed
madness must share the blame
