TELEPHONE WORK.

The work OF laying the telephone
cables under ground by the Wausau
Telephone company is nearly COM
pleted. There is one cable Of 40C
pairs which now runs under ground
from the telephone building west to
Second avenue on the west side OF
the river. This is not exposed only
when it crosses the river at the high
bridge on Scott street and as it cross
es the river at the falls. At the high
bridge the big cable is carried by
poles, but across the main river it is
kept as straight as a die by means Of
wire cables. 1t is worth the while
of our citizens TO walk over to the
falls and take a look at this excellent
piece of work, planned and worked
out by manager &. /. Crawford. All
the mass of small cables running to
the west side, which are rather an
unsightly mass along the south side
of the Curtis & Yale Co.'S factory,
are to be taken down, and when that
is done Wausau will have very liGtle
telephone construction work in the
business part of the city, which is
not underground. This means that
our system is being perfected each
year so that its patrons have little
fear of being interfered with on ac-
count of fires or disastrous storms.
The company has much work to do
before fall in making extensions to
various parts of the city and especial
ly in the line to Schoield, and Roth
schild, and in the Farmers Eastern
