SAFETY" MEETING AT AMIGO

Mayor Ringle, Dan McNaughton,
agent for the G. n. W. Ry. Co., Of
this city, and q number of railroad
men went to Amigo on Sunday to at
tend meeting called by the North
western road. Nearly three years ago
G. Richards of Milwaukee, general
claim agent of the Northwestern road,
originated a scheme by which, with
the cooperation of the whole system,
much could be done for the safety of
every employe and the public
as well, and this has been
adopted since by all of the large rail-
road companies of this country The
plan Is to have every employee note
conditions wherever he may be and
report to headquarters that which he
may find will be dangerous and liable
TO produce injury. Hy pursuing this
policy the percentage of injuries have
been wonderfully decreased as COM
pared with former years. 1t seems
that it has been no trouble to get all
employees Of the road interested in
the work, and even where boards are
lying about loose, with nails protrud-
ing, the fact was reported, and the
result was an immediate cleaning UP
in that part of the system. On Sun
day there was special train run
from Marshtield to Amigo and an
other from Ashland down, taking in
employees along the route. The meet
ing was addressed by c. Richards,
who showed the various elements of
danger, illustrating with lantern
slides. All was very interesting and
instructive. Mayor Ringle of this
city was called upon and gave a brief
talk.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Miss Rudebusch, who is at the
county hospital with diphtheria is re-
covering nicely.
The annual district oratorical and
declamatory contest will be held at
the high school next Thursday even
ing, the same having been postponed
for a week on account of counter
events.
The time for the closing of the
school year is being looked forward
to anxiously by the teachers as well
as by the scholars. In the high school
there will only be three new teach
ers, Miss Bucklin and the Messrs.
Day and Monroe not returning.
The school athletic events for the
season were finished last Saturday
with a big meet at Steveny Point,
when the Wausau boys came out
ahead. All in all the Wausau boys
have had avery successful year both
in foot ball and basket ball. At
Appleton the basket bali game had
hard luck in drawing the GAINESVILLE
team as their opponents. Had some
other team been drawn there is no
doubt in the minds of the scholars
but what we would have had place
in the end.
The Wausau high school has rea-
son to be proud of two of its Senior
scholars who will graduate this year.
The essay contest on the best essay
written of George Washington based
upon the Woodrow Wilson essays
written in the Chicago Record Herald

Prizes to the amount of many hun
dred dollars were given away. The
first prize of $4,000, the second of
$4,000 and the third of $500 with
four $1,000 prizes and many smaller
offers. Both Wausau students, Edwin
LEM and Prudential Woodward, win
ming $1,000 prizes. Sc eral Wausau
students have also written essays on
the Perry Victory of Lake Erie, but
no prize winners have been annoHnced
as yet,
AT the high school Monday morn
ing the track team was given a great
ouation. All OF the track men were
lined up on the platform with the
beautiful cups and banners won at
the Point. Coach Monroe gave a
short talk upon the good behavior of
the boys while away and he was fol-
lowed by Capt. Foltz who told in
brief words of the trip. After this
each individual track man responded
with few words and the exercises
closed with great enthusiasm.

Captured Wild Goose

Ell Worsiey, who for many years
has lived In a tent on the Mis-
souri, River northwest OF Slater,
accomplished q v,ry exiraor lin
ary feat last week by capturing a
wild goose.
While looking at trap, he had
set a.ong the river he discovered
n goose at the edge OF the water,
where there was a perpendicular
bank to the sand bar. He marked
the place, and not having a gun
got a stick and dipped up TO the
bank within a few feet OF the
goose. When II started TO iiy he
threw and struck Il on the head
rendering II unconscious, when he
waded In and got II. Within a few
minutes the goose regained con-
seriousness and he took It home
with him intending TO keep II.
But the sad part OF the story II
that the goose kept up such a
quaking during the night that Mr.
Worsiey took off his head next
morning. This story 10 vouched
for by w. r. Rhoades who Is our
