ment TO sc many men. A concern
the size of the basket factory will
eventually cause new families to
locate here and that means prosper-
ity to Edgar. Edgar News.

LEG BROKEN.

Gust Radtke, a fourteen year old
news boy, riding bicycle, was run
over by bus loaded with men, bound
for the ST. Paul station, on Friday
afternoon, breaking his thigh and
demolishing his wheel. 1t appears
the boy was going north on Third
street and in riding too close to
the moving bus lost his bal
ance and fell from his bicvcle be-
meath the rear wheel of the vehicle
which passed over his leg and with
the result as above stated. He was
picked up and carried into Tony
Marks barber shop and later taken
to the General hospital. Those COM
prising the bus load contributed
handsome donation of money upon
arrival at the station and sent it to
the boy as balm for his misfortune.

lie works considered the bids for paw
ing Scott street from Third to the

to the slough bridge. There were
four firms that submitted bids, viz:
Chris. Johnson of Oshkosh; Russell

and Justeson 81 Howarth, of this city.
Chris. Johnson's bid was the lowest,
offering prices per yard as follows:
vitrified brick S2.12; creosote blocks,
81 inch S2.63; Creosote blocks, 3 inch
SAT and sandstone $40. The board
will recommend this bid to the city

ceptance. The property owners along
the proposed streets which are to be
paved, have not as yet selected the
material which they are gazing to use.

awarded the contract for laying
cement for the city, it being the low
est bidder.

disciples, and which they in turn
taught to their disciples. Whenever it
it has been understood and applied
it has been found to operate as law of
annihilation to sin, disease, and death,
and to supersede so-called mortal
laws.
When viewed from any point Mrs.
Eddy stands as one of the great char
acters of this age. She has made a
discovery in the realm of metaphysics
that exerts and must continue to exert
more far-reaching influence upon
humanity than any discovery ever
made in the physical realm. She has
founded a religion that has restored
to mankind the spiritual healing as
practised by the primitive church.
Within the brief space of one genera
tion her teachings have so impressed
themselves upon the public that it
would be difficult to find a place
where there is not a Christian Science
church or society, or at least where
there are not some Christian Scien-
lists.
Mrs. Eddy ha zen assailed by
critics, but that a. not surprising.
There has never been a pioneer of
new and better things, leader of
thought, who has escaped from criti-
cism or whose ideals have been at
once accepted by all. Out of all the
criticism and misunderstanding of
Christian Science and it's Leader and
Founder, however, there stands the
fact that it has healed a multitude of
people. Sooner or later every person
will adopt that system of religious
teaching which brings the largest
measure of help and hope and conso-
lation, and SO long as any remain who
are suffering from unhappiness or
sickness or sin, Christian Science will
offer to them a sure means of finding
divine help.

CONTESTS AT THE
HIGH SCHOOL
Discriminatory and Oratcrical Contests
Take Place on Thursday
Evening

One OF the great events of the
school year took place in the assembly
hall at the Wausau high school last
Thursday evening before a large
audience which comprised many from
outside of the city. The occasion
was the Stevens Point district de-
clamatory and oratorical contest, in
which there are four leagues as fol-
lows: Weyauwega, Waupaca and Am
herst; Merrill Tomahawk and Minoc-
qua; Abbotsford and Stanley; Stevens
Point, Marshfeld and Wausau.
Rev. O. d. Briggs was chairman OF
the evening and he opened the exer-
cises with brief and very appropri-
ate address The oratorical contest
came off first and the following are
the names of those who took part
and their themes:
Amel Bronstead, Tomahawk-' ma
tional Apostacy."
Roswell Harrington, Abbotsford-
"The Genius of Patriotism.
Albert Mohr, Wausau-" -"The Amer
lean Infamy."
John Moody, Weyaawega- Murder
Will Out"
Paul Tobey, Wausau-"T -"The Plea
for Cuba"
Each contestant did himself proud,
speaking with ease and with perfect
enunciation.
The high school orchestra enter
tanned the audience with a selection
before the young ladies declamatory
contest began. The following young
ladies entered this contest:
Miss Elva Williams, Minocqua-
'Idella and the White Plague
Miss Jane Kaudy, Waupaca- -'The
Gipsy Flower Girl"
Miss Dorothy Horn, bbotsford-
"Gwen's Challenge"
Miss Josephine SGurtevant, Wausau
-" Madame Butterfly"
Miss Marion Friede, Wausau The
Burgundian Defiance. f"
Each young lady deserved the en-
thusiastic applause of the audience,
which she SO generously received,
as all of the declamations were splen-
didly rendered, in fact they were
given with finish seldom witnessed
in high school work.
The Judges of the evening were
VIM. Milne, of Merrill; Prof.
of the Stevens Point
normal and G. w. Otto, Supt. of
the schools of Marshfield, and while
they were summing up the markings
there was music by the orchestra.
lnasmuch as Amel Rrumsted and
Paul Tobey were tied in rank, it
required sometime to figure out the
percentage which resulted in giving
Bhe former one and half per cent. in
he lead. This made Mr. Tobey's
second, Albert Mohr, third
In the oratorical contest Miss jose
ohine Sturtevant won first place, Miss
lane Kaudy, second and Miss Marion
Friede third. Great enthusiasm pre-
vailed when it was learned that
Wausau had three places in the two
contests.
The result of Thursday evening
means that Miss Josephine Sturte-
1ant will represent this district in
5he state declamatory contest which
will be held in Madison within the
next few weeks and Amel BromsUead
n the oratorical contest.

be entitled to lasting praise for com.
pelling this age TO recognize the power
and influence ef thought. Solomon
declared three Thousand years ago that
as man 'thinketh in his heart, SC
is he" In other words, the quality
of the man is determined by the
quality of his thought. 1t is there
fore of supreme Importance that man
should know the truth, to the end
that he may know how to Jhink cor
rectly
AS time goes on humanity exhibits
an ever decreasing interest in theories
about God that are not helpful and
practical This tendency has been
deplored by the churches as indicating
a loss of interest in religion, but it is
not so. 1t indicates a tremendous
desire for religion that is practical.
THIS Is AN AGE OF PRACTICAL THINGS
The demand for practical things
also demands religion that is prac-
! teal. People ~ no longer satisfied
with theories about what is to happen
in another world. What is desired is
demonstrable religion that saves
from present troubles-from sickness,
and sin, and failure, and unhappiness,
and the countless ills of everyday hu-
man eXperience-and if there is a
religion that will do that, it can be
safely trusted for the future
Christian Science is essentially a
practical religion. 1t has been called
applied Christianity. There is the
same difference between Christian
Science and other systems that there
is between mathematics and engineer
ing Mathematics does much good in
many ways, but it is not until the
rules of mathematics are applied to
human affairs that we see brought
out great bridges, railroads, subways,
lofty buildings, and other things that
are of public utility, and which con-
tribute to the well-being of mankind.
So it is only when the teachings of
Jesus are understood and applied to
human affairs that we see the sick
healed, sinners liberated from bond
age to evil habits, and other practical
things done for the betterment of
humanity.
MRS. EDDY
Many people seem TO think that
Christian Science is some new thing
devised by Mrs. Eddy, but such is not
the case. 1t is defined by its Founder
as 'The law Of God, the law of good,
interpreting and demonstrating the
divine Principle and rule of universal
harmony fundamental Divine
Science, p. u. 1t was understood

COUNCIL GROVE, Kan. 21. - Al rcord of unique early day marriage ceremony was found here among some documents in the probate judges of flee at the court house. In the late 6O's Squire Aplington, of the first settlers in the country, widely known and well liked, was elected justice of the peace. He had very little book learning" and was not much knowledge of law, but he was a rough and ready orator, and when two bent on having the knot tied appeared at his office he was equal to the emergen- cy, although he never before had per formed a wedding ceremony and had no form of procedure to go by. Quite crowd came with the bride and bridegroom, and one took down the words the judge employed.
 After all the preliminaries had been arranged Squire Aplington faced the bride and bridegroom, Amos Fea' body and Amanda Thomas, and their witnesses and said;

Wireless Telegraphy is
 Simple To Initiated Ones

having a slide on it. The slide makes contact with the wire, and as 1t ls moved back and forth over the wire, more or less of 1t is put into the re- ceiying circuit, in which it is con. ngcted. There are two connections made to the set, one to theaerial, and one to the ground.
 The detector is piece Of appara- tus which renders the wireless wave audible in the receivers, or head phones The most common one is made by clamping a piece of mineral, such as iron pyrites, silicon, carbor- undum etc., in a cup. On this crystal rests a piece of wire, or metallic ma terial which makes contact with it. This wire can be moved around so as to rest on a sensitive point. The wave sent out by the sending apparatus oscIllates so rapidly that the human ear can not perceive it. The mission of the detector is to lower this high freouency. The detector ordinarily has a very high resistance, i. e., cleo tricity cannot readily flow through if When the wave reaches the de- tector, the resistance is considerably lowered and part of the wave train flows through, thus producing an aud ible effect on the head receiver
 The head phones work on the same principle as the ordinary telephone receiver, which is sometimes brought into service for short distance work, only they are built better are more sensitive, and made smaller so that they may be mounted on head band. If you have ever examined telephone receiver you may have noticed that 9 thin piece of metal, called the dia- phragm, is mounted a short distance away from two powerful magnets. These magnets exert pull on the dia- phragm and when the wave train at- fleets them, it vibrates and produces an audible buzz. The short and long buzzes constitute the code, different combinations of the former being used for different letters of the alphabet. The Continental code Is in vogue on the Pacific Coast and in Europe, the Morse on the Atlantic sea-board and the Great Lakes.
 The duty of the sending apparatus is to set up powerful enough oscil- lations to bridge the distance over which the message is to be sent. The instrument to raise the voltage is eith- CT transformer or a spark coinl. The principle is the same in both, the lat ter being a very poor transformer of energy compared with the former, it is not used very much for wireless pur- poses, and for this reason will not be discussed in this article.
