KILLS HIS SQUAW.
Last Tuesday Night Near Elderon In
dian Arrested and Brought to
Wausau

Douglas Grizzly Bear, IA well named
Indian) pounded and kicked his wife
to death on the road, near Johnson's
mill few miles west of Ederon. At
ter pounding and kicking her the
Indian left her lying in the road
where she was found the next day
and taken into Elderon. William
Peterson, constable of that town,
found and arrested the murderer, who
confessed the crime and he was
brought here for trial. There is no
doubt in the statement made that
Grizzly Bear was drunk when he COM
mitted the deed, as it was known
that he obtained liquor at Pike Lake
that afternoon.
The victims maiden name was
Anna Smith. Her father, Frank
Smith, Winnebago Indian, lives in
the town of Franzen, this county.
She was Is years old, and when
child attended the Indian school at
Wittenberg. The Wittenberg Enter
prise, published near the scene of the
murder says:
''There would be short shrift for
Grizzly Bear, if the customs or laws
of his fellow Indians were allowed TO
be applied TO his case, for speedy
death is punishment melted out to
Indians guilty of his crime"
Grizzly Bear said that he and his
wife went to Hatley to try to get
work, having heard that the saw mill
was to start up and needed help; not
finding any employment there, they
started back on Tuesday. After
walking twelve miles to Bevent
they went into a saloon and secured
liquor and before leaving the town
they each secured bottle of whiskey.
He claims to know nothing about the
killing. There are conflicting stories
about the affair. Some say that she
was found in the road, dead, the fol-
lowing morning after the deed was
committed. But Grizzly Bear says
that he can't remember anything
after few miles out of Beveat, but
that he woke up about four O'Clock
Wednesday morning AID found his
wife dead by his side. He picked her
up and carried her to the home of an
Indian near Elderon and afterwards
removed the body to the home of AL
bert Big Thunder, an Indian OF in
fuence in the Winnebago tribe. The
Indians then returned to the scene oil
the murder but could find no evil
dences of any struggle, nor a blunt
instrument which could have pro-
duced the wounds inflicted upon the
head of the squaw.
The Coroner, w. G.. Meilahn, anc
Dist. Atty. E. p. German, went tC
Elderon on Friday to hold an inquest
empanelled jury and after hearing
the evidence rendered verdict that
the squaw came TO her death from
wounds inflicted with a blunt instru.
ment in the hands of Grizzly Bear.

LUCKY WAUSAU.

Everybody is talking "The Candy

of this engagement has slowly wendell
its way into the biggest enthusiasm
ever manifested toward the coming of

aside all other competitors which in
cluded the country's biggest musical
shows today. In form "The Candy

fields "Follies," and the New York
Winter Garden review. Its appear
ance in Wausau will positively be the
same as will be witnessed at Presi-
dent Wilson'S day at the exposition
in May. Every now and then there
is always something, Electrically for
any community to become enthused
over, and with the coming of this big
organization, Wausau may anticipate
the biggest treat ever partook of in
the musical comedy line.
Rock and Fulton are surrounded
with gala array of principals gath
cred from the biggest musical success
es. Noted among them are JAS. E.
Sullivan and Oscar Ragland, both

BUILD NOW"

The Build Now" movement
is being agitated over the entire
United States. Especially is the
building movement being agis
tated in the south. All building
material is the cheapest that it
has been for years, labor'is plen-
tiful and even real estate has
slumped. There is no reason
for this except matter of mind.
Money has never been more
plentiful 1t is going begging
in the financial centers. People
do not want money at any price
for big improvements or tor
building. Bonds are gobbled up
at prices that have not been Of
fered before for years. Yester-
day at Clearwater fifteen agents
or buyers scrambled for $4,000
school bonds and the successful
bidder paid $Io5.Io with accrued
interest, and this buyer will
have to dispose of them at a
price above this figure to make
his profit.
Money is piling up in the big
i cities waiting for investment. 1t
is crying for action. The bal
ance of trade of the world is in
Uncle Sans favor. Factories
are working overtime to supply

be diligently cultivated and acre
