NONE TO BE HAD.
People Seeking Homes Have To Go
Elsewhere.

One of Wausau's greatest draw
backs is the lack of places in which to
live. 1t is crying need. People
come to our city With the idea of To-
eating and search in vain for suitable
places in which to house their famil-
les. We are most industrious in
bringing factories, all kinds of indus
tries and educational institutions to
our town, which also brings class of
people tending to make city; but
with poor houses and poor surround
ings these people lose interest in the
town, mayhap go elsewhere, with
unpleasant Impressions which, if
expressed, hurt our city. "Work for
Wausau" is good slogan, but it
should be viewed from all sides.
Our work is not finished when our in
dustrieS are built and started. Tie
people who come with them should
be taken care of and comfortable
places for rent should be at their dis
posal. There is nothing that in
fiuences a strangers impression of
town more than the place in which
he lives and calls home, and modern
houses for rent i'll pleasant localities
are drawing cards for town. Why
not build apartment houses? All
cities the size of Wausau have them,
some of them being beautiful build
ings, located in pleasing parts of the
city. If number of the public
spirited men who 'work for Wausau"
would form stock company and
build handsome, modern apartment
building that would house eight or
ten families, locate it on a pleasant
street and give it an attractive name,
it would not only be boon to The
city but paying investment for the
stockholders. There are many famil-
les today living in rented houses, who
are anxious to live in heated apart
ments if they were only attainable.
To be sure Wausau has several small
apartments, but it needs many more
How often we hear "Mr A. was in town
today; he is going to locate here but
he can't find a house." 1t seems to
be the constant cry. There are new
people locating in our city constantly
and consequently there is always a
demand for pleasant homes in good
localities. 1t is rumored that an
apartment house is contemplated,
being builded here in the near future.
Let us hope the rumor will material
iZe into handsome, modern building,
centrally and pleasantly located, and
that more than one will be erected in
the course of another year. They
will not only be good investment
for the owners but good advertise
ment for our city, and boon to the
stranger within our gates

EDITOR PILoT -

EDITOR PILOT -
To those who are working to beau
tify Wausau, perhaps word from
one who sees things little differently
than Others, may not come amiss.
My reason for invading the COL
umns of the press, is that an individ-
ual can do little, while those banded
together can accomplish results
Much good work has been done in
Wausau, all will admit. In its lawns,
shrubbery, flowers, trees, etc, in the
past few years, it has advanced won
derfully perhaps more than any city
in Wisconsin. But very little has
been done TO rid the city of piles of
rubbish, of old dilapidated buildings,
sheds, barns, outhouses, and the like,
many in use contrary to the laws of
our city.
For instance, along Jefferson, on
the street TO our beautiful library
grounds and close to the latter, is
scrap heap of almost everything
known under the sun, which would
put TO shame the dumping grounds in
some secluded spot in the outskirts.
On Fifth street is a wood pile which
runs out flush to the street and a
rough board garage, the walls of
which are used for FASTING on bills,
Uttered about with bad smelling
paste. On Third street, between
Mcclellan and Grant streets, on the
right hand side, is small place filled
with rubbish, old broken down trees,
etc. This might be transposed into a
beauty spot without hardly any ex-
pense. Back of the Wausau club,
even, is an old tumble-down affair
which should be cleaned out. Also
back of the beautiful telephone build
ing is another. might go mention
ing just such dilapidated, Unlocking
affairs that are on nearly every block
of our city, and l am sure, if the
owners. were only waited upon in
nice way, and asked to assist in max
ing Wausau more beautiful, they
would do the right thing.
There are other matters to be con-
sidered. Butcher shops should not
be allowed to do their rendering to
the discomfort of citizens. Neither
should they be allowed to kill any
sort of an animal or fowl on their
grounds within the city limits. There
are those who do it, and at times the
stencil settles down, in sections of
our city, like fog. Can't this be
remedied?
There are many institutions in
Wausau that need to be told what to
do, in language easily understood,
otherwise the same conditions will
until something is done.

PREPARING TO ENLARGE.

The Marathon Shoe company, ow-
ing TO it's increasing business and a
demand for larger quarters, has pur-
chased the old Grant school property
on North First avenue and proposes
to soon begin the erection of SO x
100, two story building thereon, adj
ditional land for the purpose being
purchased and a number of the bust
ness men on that side of the river as
sisting the company in the new pro-
ject. The company also proposes to
increase it's capital stock from 100000
to $4,000 and is meeting every en-
couragement on all sides. The new
factory is to be built of solid brick
and equipped with additional new
machinery and power, increasing it's
output from 300 pairs of shoes per
day to 1000 pairs. At the present
time the company is employing only
thirty-six hands daily. When located
in its new quarters the employees will
be increased to 100 hands and where
the company will have more conven-
lent facilities for the handling of
rush orders instead of turning them
down." on account of its present in
capacity and disadvantages.
The "Work for Wausau" slogan
seems to be clearing good fruit"
in all directions, and the PILOT ad-
monishes all loyal citizens to con-
tinue in the good work so suspicious
ly inaugurated for the commercial
and general welfare of our growing
city and county.

M. M. CORNER.

Of course our sale was success.
We knew it would be, and everybody
fell in love with the carpet. 1t sold
promptly at good, fair price. Now
we must go right to work and make
another. We know you'll all want to
help, so you can get busy and sew
pound or two of rags. If you can't
do that, then give us the rags-for
we're all in earnest.
Yes, we worked hard, for its not
easy to stand all day, and have only
dry goods box to sit down on. We
could but think of all the rocking
chairs slowed away in attics doing
nobody any good. How nice it would
be if we could have permanent room
where we could store our things.
1t was no small task for one mother
to help the children. draw away what
was left, on an express wagon after
dark. We are glad her husband is
not a crank, like one who growled,
"You needn't bring that old stuff
here; we've enough now"
Well, we enjoyed getting together
getting better acquainted those
who had little money gladly paid it
for clothing to give away. Many
things were sold wholly, or in part,
for the donors, so not affecting our
treasury. We decided to crowd our
work all into one day, as rent was
high. We're sorry we hadn't time to
talk more with the country women
especially. We are hoping to find a
way to help them to sell their farm
products better. We want to talk
with them about making jelly, pick
els, etc. We want to talk to you,
dear women, and with you about so
many things that concern us all.
Won't you please come to our meet
ings which are held weekly at one of
our homes? This week Friday with
Mrs. Chas J Mathey, 426 Plumer ST.,
or drop line TO Aunt Jane, Wausau,
Wis, It will lind US.
Our thanks are due Mr.. Heinemann
who donated US a quantity of new
goods; also Mrs. Hitler (milliner) who
sent some nobby hats, and we must
not forget those good husbands who
cheerfulIy ate a cold lunch and kept
sweet AUNT JANE.

WAUSAU WINS.

The above is not intended for
slogan for Wausuu, but to show that
Wausau wins the good will of all the
Athens people who took an interest
in their own fair last Saturday.
Wausau came over in about twenty
cars to help us have good fair.
Their attendance and interest was
duly appreciated, and will be re-
turned with interest by Athens peo-
pie at some future time.

Wausau people present. though there
were many more here we did not

ROTARY CLUB.

i
the Wausau Club on Wednesday eve-
ming, which was attended by about
fifty members. All sat down to the
table at 7 O'Clock and during the
dinner hour, an orchestra furnished
inspiring music and between courses.
old-time songs were sung, and many
not so old, under the dictatorship of
r. E. Puchner.
The after dinner program, with A.
II. Zimmerman presiding, included a
splendid talk by S. 3. Tobey, the
clubs representative to the National
Rotary convention which was held at
Seattle, on his trip to the West, the
Expeditions at San Francisco and
San Diego, the Yellowstone and
other places of interest. He gave n
full and complete doings of the
Rotary convention showing many
souvenirs of the occasion and large
group picture of the members of the
convention, all of which vas greatly
enjoyed by the club.
Several matters of business were
taken up later and quite a number of
new members admitted. This organi-
cation has been instrumental in hav-
ing several of the main roads leading
from the city placed in fine condition,
and at this meeting the matter of
grading North Sixth street was dis
cussed. There is part of this street,
from the end of the car line to where
the macadam starts again, up near
the old Parcher farm, which is in
deplorable conditions; full of deep
ruts and mud holes. If the city
officials will allow the club. to go
ahead and grade it, the citizens may
be assured that the street will be
made possible, and a pleasure to
drive over it.
Whatever the members of that club
undertake to do, is done thoroughly
and completely.
The good that this club has done
for our city the past year is remark
able. What it can do in the future,
and perhaps will, is beyond compre-
hension. True it is that they are the
liveliest bunch of young business men
to be found anywhere.
The regular weekly dinner of the
club was held at the Wausau club
yesterday noon at which time A. H.
Zimmerman gave an excellent paper
on "Insurance.
+ For the vast amount of excellent
information in this paper, the PILOT
publishes it in full in another column
of this issue. Everyone who has
home or business must insure, and
the reader will be well repaid for the
time spent in reading Mr.. thinner
mann's paper on "Fire Insurance"
During his talk be showed an inter
esting picture of the interior of the
old opera house which was destroyed
by fire, Jan. Is, 1892, Also an insur-
ance policy covering said building and
its contents, dated July 81, 1886,

A committee of three was appoint
ed to investigate the various perma-
nent paving materials and recommend
that which, in its judgment is best
adapted for this city.
1t was also voted to attend the next
meeting of the common council in
body, just to become familiar in the
way which the affairs of city are
conducted.

HOG TRADE is
HOLDING STRONG

/ PORTLAND, Ore.-With one ~ its
greatest runs Of swine, the North
Portland hog market Was not only
able to maintain former values but
, actually showed an advance in price
for the week
There was evidently no disposition
among killers to restrict the price Of
swine. In fact. some Of the leaders
seemed to vie with one another 70
hand the advances to shippers on sil-
yer platters
Seemingly there was concerted ac.
tion In this advance of prices IN the
face Of severe depression in the east
ern market-a situation which, by
the way. looked rather fishy in view
Of the enormous increase in the war
orders which eastern killers are fore
ed to work both day and night 10
keep up with--the local price was ad-
vanced.
Naturally this gave the big pack
ers plenty Of opportunity to put up
TO an additional height the price Of
provisions, which products they had
secured from extremely low priced
hogs
The Portland Union stockyards
company itself is doing all in its pow
cr to keep the market for hogs prof
table to producers, but the company
merely keeps a hotel for livestock.
and neither buys nor sells any OF the
products. The low prices are due en-
tirely to buying interests Of Puget
sound and Portland and not to any
stockyard influence
General hog market:
Best light .............. 6.75GG.S5
Good to heavy .......... SIS a. 81
Rough to heavy ......... 500 BIS
cattle Market Is Dull
After showing a good tone on Mon
day, the cattle market developed
weakness at North Portland There
was a further increase in offerings of
cattle. and. while good stuff sold at
fractional premium, the market
was not healthy for poor stuff. These
showed neglect There seems to be-
no let-up whatever in the marketing
or poor dairy cattle and some give
away prices were reported during the
six days trade.
