The Widows Mite.

AS she knelt at her devotions
She was Nisibly distressed,
And the force of her emotions
Would not suffer her to rest.
They were taking the collection,
And her worried brow was bent
On her hands in deep detection,
For she did not have a cent.
Coins were climbing in the basket
As it near and nearer came,
And her pain-she could not mask tt
Flushed her visage as a flame.
Then she murmured: What g. pickle!
What horrid embarrassment.

DEATH OF w. r. MANSON.

William r. Manson died in Aurora,
ILL.,, last Wednesday forenoon, July
23d, 1913, after an illness of three
weeks. The message conveying the
sad news was a great shock to his
relatives in Wausau as well as to
his wide circle of friends. H. II.
Manson, brother of deceased departed
for Aurora Wednesday evening to
bring the remains home for inter-
ment. They arrived here on Friday
morning and were also accompanied
by Mark Scholfleld, a nephew, who
had been with Mr.. Manson assisting
him in his business.
w. h. Manson was a son Of the
late Rufus z. and Catherine Manson,
of WauSau, the former coming here
in 1851 from New Hampshire. De-
ceased was born in this city on the
18th day of Sept. 1863, and would
have been so years of age had he
lived until his next birthday. He
was educated and grew TO manhood
here and was one of Wausau's most
popular young men.
At the time of his fathers death,
in 1898, he was general manager and
booakeeper of his large saw mill and
lumber plant. He stepped in and as
sumed full charge and conducted the
business until il was finally disposed
of. Mr.. Manson spent many years in
the state of Washington following
the numbering business, but two years
ago it was necessary for him to come
East to reside on account of>ill health.
For over d year he had been in the
lumber commission business in Au-
rora, I'll.
Deceased was unmarried. He is
survived by brothers and sisters in
this city as follows: ]. n. Manson,
III. II. Manson and Rufus Manson;
Mrs. w. b. Scholtield, Mrs. f. H.
PardOe and Miss Virginia Manson.
He was prominent in Masonic circles
belonging to the Blue lodge, Chapter
and Commandery. The funeral SER
vices were conducted from the home
of Miss Virginia Manson, Clio Fifth
street, on Saturday morning at 10
O'Clock, and were in charge of Forest
Lodge No. 40, +. and A. NJ, Karl

STORM SWEPT
northern Wisconsin Deluged on Satur-
daY-River Goes Up.

Whlle Wausau had less than an
lnch OF rain fall last Saturday, in
parts OF the county there was a very
heavy fall and in some places accom-
panied with heavy wind and thunder
ana lightning. Early in the morning,
lano The Pilot man was up early that
morning in order to take the fish
train north there was no indica-
ton. OF rain, but it came from the
northwest as early as eight O'Clock.
The daily river bulletin showed a fall
during the day of nearly three inches
at Amigo; two inches at Merrill:
over three inches at Tomahawk, (of
course the Chautauqua was in pro-
gress there.) The rain was very
heaVy all over the northern part of
The state. The result was that the
wisconsin river went up kiting, until
IL reached within two feet of the
flood stage or raise of s feet and /
inch. 1t is going down very rapidly
and will be back to fair stage in a
few days. 1t made ones hair stand
right on end to see the rapid rise. 1t
made one think perhaps we were go
ing to have REPETITION of the flood of
a year ago.
Last night another storm visited
Wausau but it was not very heavy.
