GOOD ROAD MATERIAL.

Wausau city officials recently visited
the town OF Kronenwetter for the
purpose of inspecting a deposit of
disintegrated granite recently dis
covered there, which they propose to
some time use for street paving in
Wausau. They inspected piece of
road which was paved with the gran
ite last year and found it in excellent
condition. There is enough of the
material to pave all the streets of
Wausau and all the roads leading into
the country. The same material has
been used for surfacing several
stretches of roads in the vicinity of
Mosinee and eventually will be used
on every road in the country as there
are several other places where there
are large deposits of the material. -

DAMAGING STORM
Wausau and Vicinity Visited By a
Severe Electric and Rain Storm
Tuesday Evening.

Last Tuesday evenings storm will
be remembered by many for the dis
asters which it brought them. For
several weeks there had not been a
drop of rain in this vicinity and the
inhabitapas generally wanted rain to
help the crops; to lay the dust and to
cool off the oyerheated atmosphere,
for Tuesday was insufferably hot.
About $50 heavy clouds came up in
the west and there were mutterings
of thunder and bright zigzag flashes
OF lightning which looked very menac-
ing. Soon after the storm broke upon
us in all its fury. While there was
no wind there were frequent flashes
of lightning, so frequent that the
thoughts of all excepting, perhaps,
those of the newspaper mani turned
to things which have transpired in
their lives which might prevent their
entering the good place in case any
thing might happen. The rain was
sufficient for all purposes throughout
the county, but by ten O'Clock it was
apparent from the lurid condition of
the sky, that there were fires in every
direction, and this was the case. The
lighting had struck in a half dozen
places.
In the town of Wausau, August
Marquardt's barn was struck and was
burned down completely with all its
contents including all of his farm i'm
plements. Loss is figured at about
$1,000, on which there was only
small insurance.
At the same hour Fred Pophal's
two barns, in the town of Wausau,
were struck and destroyed by fire,
with their stores of hay, straw,
machinery etc. A fine team of horses
was also burned up. T. was
about $500 on which there was in
surance of $500.
Also in the town of Wausau Anton
Kings residence, barn and chicken
coop was struck by lightning, the
damage amounting to about 1925.
Chas. Schuetz's barn in the same
town was struck and burned at 9
p. m. with all of its contents and
machinery. Loss $1,000 with an in
surance of S1,800.
In the town of Stettin the Mara
thon county asylum lost barn by
fire having been struck by lightning
The barn is located about three and
a half miles from the city, near Big
Rib river in which there were so bags
of cement. There were many other
houses and barns struck in the county
but no deaths have been reported.
At Marshield a barn of G. Quicken
berger was struck and burned up.
At Birnamwood the lightning killed
two horses which we're in the pasture.
A young man by the name of Frank
Eich was struck and killed near Wit
tenberg. He was at his fathers store
in Lyndhurst, while the latter was
attending the meeting of postmasters
in this city.
In the town of Eau Pleine the storm
assumed the shape of a cyclone, and
barns and small buildings blown
down. A heavy fall of hail accom-
panied the wind and rain.

the afternoon, which was very good

were, as usual, the tents for showing
gas engines and what they could do
for the farmers; and running from
the building west, under the shade of
the large pine trees, was the spike, :"
starting out with the merry-go-round
and privileges to the number of
about sixty lined each side and the
din of shouting voices, blowing of
horns, to attract the crowd made one
think that it was several circuses
combined and all their side shows
trying TO get the crowd in at the
same time. All did a land office
business.
The main building or agricultural
hall was very attractively arranged
with its decorations of bunting. The
lower floor, at the left of the front
entrance, was given over to the dis
play of grains and grasses. On the
right was space taken by the Mara
thon County School OF Agriculture,
at which Supt. Kadonsky presided.
1t was display showing what was
being taught in that school to the
young men desiring an education
along agricultural lines, and to yOung
ladies seeking learning in domestic
science The display showed how
horses-hoeing, forging and rope
tying were taught; separator
and gas engine, showing all parts
were among the things shown, also
demonstrating preserving, cooking,
sewing and other and everything per-
tanning to domestic science. Mr..
Kadonsky was assisted by several of
the young lady students.
The National German American
bank had fine booth, in which were
glass cases filled with old coins and

bition the silver cup given by the
bank to the Kennel club. A. H.

THE FAIR A SUCCESS.
Thursday the Big Day. About $4,000 People On
the Grounds.
Familiar Faces Seen from Every Part Of the County.
and From Antigo Merrill, Stevens
Point and Marshfied

Marathon County's great annual
event, the county fair, is thing OF
the past, but it stands out in bold
relief as one of the most successful
events of the kind ever held in the
county, all owing to the great inter
est and persistence of its officers
The weather, too, was very favorable
which made it possible TO carry out
most of the program as prepared.
For a couple of weeks previous to
the fair, we had had a touch of
the drought which had prevailed so
long in Kansas, Missouri and other
states, and it had dried up the whole
country. Dust laid inches deep on
our country roads and our fields were
suffering. Relief from this came on
the evening of the first night of the
fair, Tuesday. The entire day was
very warm and clear. The farmers
came in from all over the county
with their stock and produce, and
every part of the main building was
taken up with entries and the barns
and pens filled with stock which as
sured fine exhibition so far as that
part of the fair was concerned. Along
toward evening dark clouds came up
from the west and by 6:30 O'Clock one
of the heaviest rain and electric
storms of the year was in progress;
the rain came down in torrents nearly
all night and the lightning did much
damage throughout the county in the
destruction of property, of which
more is said in another column of
the PILOT. The ground soaked up
the downpour like a sponge and
throughout the county, it effectively
laid the dust and made the roads a
delight over which to ride to the city;
the only damage to the fair exper-
fenced was to make the race track
too heavy for racing and that part of
the program had TO be cut out for the
afternoon but the large number of
visitors took up the time in looking
over the exhibits, and it was time
ellspent. Wednesday morning after
the storm, showed sky without a
cloud and the temperature such as to
make everybody decidedly comfort
able.
There was tom, Dick and Harry
present from everywhere, almost
some old faces which had not been
seen for years. 1t was a regular
Homecoming" and there was con-
tinual handshaking and the CHEEKY,
"how-do-you-do," "glad to see you,"
were heard on every hand. Truly,
we thought, the county fair is the
opportune time for all to come back
to Wausau to meet old time friends.
The crowd on Wednesday was very
good, about as usual. The parade
which had been planned for in the
day of the fair and was a record
breaker so far as attendance was con-
cerned, about $4,000 people being on
the grounds. In the evening very
attractive parade of automobiles
fancy rigs, etc, was had at O'Clock,
which took about half an hour TO pass
a given point. The races were very
good as were also the attractions.
Friday was the most beautiful day
of the fair 50 far as the weather was
