several thousands more in refitting,
undoubtedly he had little thought for
other than magnificent receptions and
dinners, the usual things Uncle Sam
always expects his diplomatists to do
and to pay for out of their own
pockets.
But the month of August found this
same magnificent home filed with a
mob of angry, complaining, frightened
tourists, unreasonably demanding the
impossible. Mr.. Gerard met them
with calm patience He stood in his
office day and night, constantly 1t
seemed, giving words of advice and
cheer. Several times he even accom-
panied trainloads of Americans to Rot
terdam just to see that they got
through all right In addition to these
duties he had charge of the interest
Of England. Russia, Japan. France, Bel
GUM, Servia and Montenegro.
His efforts were misunderstood by
a section of the German press, which
saw in his assiduity in getting Ameri-
cans home the threat of war by the
United States against Germany
Yet the bulk of Germans watched
American efficiency with admiration,
and Mr. Gerard was acclaimed as a
worthy representative of a great neu-
trail country
In Belgium Brand Whitlock, our min
lister, found himself in the actual thea
ter of war operations. First he had
to meet swarm of frightened persons
caught in the rapid advance of the
German army and escort them to Ant
weTp. Then came the occupation of
the Belgian capital Undoubtedly Mr..
Nhitlock should have most of the
credit for preventing scenes of vio-
lence in Brussels. He accompanied
the burgomaster, NJ. Max, to meet the
German conqueror, General SAKE Won

told in some cabled stories, take Brus.

In Vienna Frederick C. Penfleld, like
Mr.. Gerard, had to look out for the

His beautiful home was converted to

1t is undoubted that one effect of
the war will be to raise the estimation
of American diplomats and diplomacy

To many 'nglishmen the greatest
iaterest in the capture Of Samoa is
the fact that it brings the grave of
Robert Louis Stevenson into the Brit

call that when he 1rst touched the
iAland during the South sea cruise
y 1889, Stevenson was by no means

as means of communication between

From every capital in Europe come
grateful appropriations of the splendid
work done by the American represent.
atives.
Take, for instance. the case of My
ron I. Herrick, ambassador to France.
On August 4, when the German ambas-
sador to France received his passports,
Mr.. and Mrs. Herrick were sitting in
their dismantled mansion in the Rue
Francois Premier. Their trunks were
packed and Mr.. Herrick was ready to
hand over his papers to his successor,
Mr. Sharp.
They had had pleasant stay in
Paris. 1t had cost Mr.. Herriek
something like 100000 the first
year at his post, when he had to
purchase his furniture, and about eight
thousand dollars month the second
year. Still they had met many inter-
esting persons and no rude story about
the crudity of American diplomacy had
filtered back to America. Suddenly
the avalanche fell upon them Thou
sands of letters. kilograms and ca
bles swept into Mr. Herricks office
every day. There were panic-stricken
tourists wishing to get home by ex-
press train where there were no ex-
press trains, and there were anxious
friends in the United States insistent
for immediate news of their friends
and relatives.
Besides the pleasure-seekers besieg-
ing him night and day, there was the
resident colony to be thought OF, thou
sands of them craving a private inter
view and advice about the best way
to manage their affairs with the sud
den threat of siege.
From Switzerland and from north
ern italy the cohorts poured into Paris.
They must be given care until they
could be got down to the seaports
and shipped across the Atlantic. Ships
were lacking and there was a general
clamoring for the ambassador to ca
BILE Washington to supply the def
cheney.
Added to the genuine cases of dis
tress were the clever crooks and con
bdence men and women who took the
opportunity to reap golden harvest.
Then, too, there were many instances

ing the annual y. NJ. G. A. gymnasium
exhibition took place at the Y. In

very pretty folk dance which was fol-
lowed by ''Thirty Minutes of Fun"
by the business men. There was
combination apparatus work by the
Junior working boys. Then calls

RATHER STARTLING
Mrs. Louis Rinele, Jr., Goes Through
Sidewalk Into an Old Well.

most peculiar and unusual acct
dent occurred on Grant street Thurs
day morning, causing quite an excite
ment. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Ringle,
Jr., were going to the st. Paul sta
tion to meet the train and when in
front of DIR. ID. L. Jones' residence
the cement sidewalk suddenly gave
way, precipitating Mrs. Ringle to the
bottom of an old well, the earth cav
ing in and holding her in its grasp.
The prompt action of her husband
and neighbors undoubtedly saved her
life Ladders and ropes were quickly
gotten aid she was soon extricated,
somewhat bruised and dazed but
otherwise unhurt. She was taken in
to DR.. Jones' home where she was
revived by friendly hands and restor-
atives and later taken to her own
home in DR.. r. w. Jones auto,
where she undoubtedly rejoices that
she is alive and we'll.
The we'll seems TO have been the
source of water supply for domestic
purposes in early years. A few days
before the accident the doctornoticed
depression in the walk, and on
Wednesday hyd some workmen repair
it; but rain on Wednesday night
caused secor d depression which led
to the accidel t. The place has now
been fully repaired and is perfectly
safe

KILLED BY THE CARS.

Lloyd Allen, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Allen, former residents of
this city, but now of Blackwell, Wis,
was accidentally killed in the st. Paul
switching yards in this city Friday
afternoon. 1t appears that the boy
tried to pass between the coal car and
box car and when the train moved
he was thrown onto the track and
evidently two wheels passed over the
body just above the waist line. The
accident was not witnessed by any
one. A lady passing along the road
near the tracks noticed the body
lying beneath one Of the coal cars
across the rails, and notified one of
the men who was working in the
yards. Coroner r. NJ Frawley and
district attorney German were sum-
moned, but decided an inquest was
not necessary, as there was no doubt
but that death was due to an acct
dent. Lloyd was born in this city,
January q, 1906, and was eight years,
two months and six days old.
Mrs. Allen and two little sons came
to Wausau several days ago from
Blackwell for a visit with relatives
and friends.
The funeral was held yesterday af.
ternoon from the home of mir. and
Mrs. William Eckman, POI East For
est street, the Rev. o. T. Doe, pastor
of the Emmanuel Norwegian Lutheran
church, officiating. Interment was
made in Pine Grove cemetery.

BELOIT CLUB HERE.

Last Saturday evening the Beloit
Glee and Mandolin clubs gave de-
lightful recital at the high school
before a good sized audience. The
combined clubs numbered some forty
five or fifty young men and some
splendid numbers were presented by
them. The mandolin club which was
composed of clarinet, two guitars,
flute, drums and trombone besides
the ten mandolin players, was espec-
tally fine. No club that could come
up to the latter has ever been in this
city. They were called back severa
times after each number and cheer
fully responded.
The glee club, although its program
was excellent was the best that has
been here in the last two years. They
were all good singers and of their
number, three sang very beautiful
solos, AS whole the Glee and Man
dolin clubs were excellent and far
superior to the Wisconsin club which
was here very early in the season.
The Beloit clubs were entertained in
the homes of the people of this city
during their stop of one day. Satur-
day evening they were all entertained
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Kelly at dinner. The High School
Athletic club secured the Beloit
singers and players here and as re-
suit the club has been able to make
some extra money which will come
handy in the endeavor that will be
made to send the track team to some
meets that will come off some time
in the near future. A finer lot of
young men would be hard to find any
where and certainly they did honor
to Beloit college.

CATARRH
YIELDS TO HYOME|
You Breathe 1t.

Be wise in time and use Hyomei at
the first symptom of catarrh, such as
frequent head constant shifting,
raising of mucus, or droppings in the
throat. Do not let the disease become
deep-seated and you are in danger of a
serious if not fatal ailment.
There is no other treatment for
catarrh, head colds, etc, like the Hyo-
mel method, none just as good, so easy
and pleasant to use, or that gives such
quick, sure, and lasting relief. You
breathe it-no stomach dosing w.
W. Albers will refund your money if
you are not benefited.
Try Hyomei at once and see how
quickly it clears the head, stops the
shifting, and banishes catarrh. Hyo-
mel helps you to enjoy good health.
