POULTRY SHOW
In Three Weeks the 3rd Annual Central
Wisconsin Poultry Association Exhi-
bition Will Be Held Here.-Big Entry
Expacted

The third annual poultry exhibition
of the Cen9ral Wisconsin Poultry As
sociation will be held in this city on
January g. &c, 30, 81 and February /.
Last year there were only four days
of exhibition but such success had
been made and so many people entered
poultry from away that it was de-
cided to lengthen the time to five
days. Plans are being made and the
biggest entry ever made is expected
this year. A premium booklet is being
printed and this will soon be mailed
to everyone interested. Arrange
ments have been completed whereby
the building at the south end Of
Third street, formerly occupied by
Ritter & Deutsch furniture company
will be used instead of Elks' hall
where last years show was held A
great many prizes will be offered,
most of them, probably in beautiful
cups resembling those of last January
The weather as it has been, would be
the best for such an exhibition and
if we have some of this for those who
enter their prize poultry we can be
assured that they will be pleased

for it, and as he was never known to
decline anything of value before, we
conclude that this declination will
stand. 1t had long been dream of
the better element Of this city,
socially speaking, that the governors
office would soon be filled by one of
SUCH character and dignity as the
Colonel, one of the old time aristoc-
racy, one who could with a glance
squelch the obnoxious Mccarthy, one
who would restore to their pristine
glory the representatives of great
wealth, who would restore TO us the
conditions as they were in the good
old days when members of our upper
classes never knew the humiliation
of paying for railroad tickets and
when the mild Jersey found free
transportation. The Colonel is op-
posed to all kinds of upIift and every
kind OF commission. 1t is hoped that
the Colonel may be induced TO change
his mind. He will If the pressure be-
comes more oppressive.

WORKING A GAME.

a resident of Brokaw, local adj
vance agent for the Menace" an
anti-religious sheet, drew large
crowd at Elks' han last Tuesday even
ing. His main object seems TO have
been to excite hatred of certain
religion and to organize society Of
the Guardians of Liberty in this
city of Comparatively unity and friend
ship. Newspaper reporters were ex-
cluded from the meeting but they
protested and remained. A private
meeting is to be held later Wausau
Pilot.
This same "Menacen has been
shown about in Marshfield, and copies
of it are reported to have been circu-
lated most industriously in an effort
to divert votes from MarsnhelG's
present mayor at the recent election.
However, religious beliefs cut less ice
than ever in politics nowadays, be-
cause a prejudice against man by
reason of his religious faith shows
the most extreme bigotry on the part
of the one who ertertainS that pref
dice.
The Menace will wear itself out by
its own vindictiveneSs and intolerance.

COURT SYSTEM.

The circuit judges of Wisconsin, or
many of them, met in Madison the
past week, to confer with the COM
mittee of lawyers, appointed by The
legislature to investigate court sys.
tenn in Wisconsin. The double trial
system in probate matters, it was de-
cided, was hindrance to the court
and should be abolished. 1t was the
concensus of opinion that there should
be either an appeal from the county
court TO the supreme court, or when
an issue is joined in probate court
the matter should be certified to the
circuit court. There was considerable
discussion over the proposed abolish
ment of the Office or justice of the
peace, but no definite decision reached.
The committee will continue in it's
investigations and submit plans as
it appears best suited to the needs of
the state, and report at the next
legislature

HIGH COURT T0PASS
ON VOW OF POVERTY
Issue Will Decide Property
Rights of Religious Orders of
United States.

The Supreme Court Of the United
States will be asked On Thursday to
construe the wow Of poverty taken
BY persons entering monastic orders,
thus deciding what are the property
rights OF every religious order in the
United States.
Former Supreme Court Justice Nor
gan J. O'Brien, of New York. will ap-
pear before the tribunal ON behalf OF
the Order Of st. Benedict, Of New Jer-
sey. which Is contesting the claim Of
relatives of the Rev. Father Augustine
Worth, who died in 1901 and left an
estate valued at $4,000.
Father Worth's relatives will be rep
resented by William Hayward. Assist
ant District Attorney Of New York.

ing millions of dollars may be begun BY
relatives of deceased monastics.
The United States Circuit Court OF
Minnesota had previously ruled The
possession of the Benedictine Order. be.
cause of the vow Of poverty taken by
him on entering the order.
Brother Worth was a Bavarian. who
Joined the Benedictine Order In west
moreland county, Pa. in 1852. In 1SSl
he was transferred to New Jersey. and
for many years lived in monastery In
Newark. Following disagreement with
other monks. he went to Minnesota ana
became a priest
Brother worth was an author Of con-
siderable note in the order, and through
his writings amassed about $1,000. Aft
er his death a brother. nephew, and
niece. his heirs-at-law. living In Ne
braska City. retained Mr.. Hayward and
his partner to get possession of the es-
tate. In the probate court, Steinhauser
was appointed administrator Of all the
property.
HAYWARD came to New York and be-
gan suit against Benziger Bros, pub
lishers Of the dead monks books. FOR
an accounting Of royalties. The firm
set up the defense that the royalties be-
longed not to the administrator, but to
the Order Of st. Benedict In New Jer-
sey. by reason Of the vow Of poverty
which the monk had taken.
The Benedictine monks then began
suit in the United States Circuit Court
against the administrator for Brother
Worth's property, 10 which 1t was con-
tended the vow OF poverty entitled
them. Mr.. Hayward set up the defense
that this vow was inconsistent with the
