Anniversary OF the Mahcr- O 'Donnell
BOut

Anniversary OF the Mnhcr-O'Donnell
a Bout.
Eighteen years ago. July 9, 1900.
Peter Mnher knocked out Steve o.
Donnell In the first round at New
York. Knocking out the big AUS
tralian was one OF the best things
that Peter did. Steve landed In
America in 1853 and made quite a
reputation by defeating A number OF
good men. including Jake Kilrain3
who was knocked out In the 21st
round OF Il bout with the Australian
Steve's first defeat came when he
met Peter Maher at Maspeth, Long
Island, in 1895. The Hibernlan gladi-
ator stopped O'Donnell In the first
round and thus established prece-
dent which he continued to live up
to in subsequent meetings. After
whipping Jim Dwyer, PAD d y
Slavin, owen Sullivan and Jack
Cuslck, O'Donnell was again
matched with Mahcr. The result
was the -amo rs In the first bout.
Peter winning by n knockout in the
initial inning, ~ This was at Coney
Island. In 1898 Peter and Steve
mingled again In Philadelphia. Peter
was II bit slow In getting started this
time and the Australian wasn't put
to sleep until the second round. o.
Donnell kept away from his Irish
"Jinx' until 1900, when ne decided
to have another try. Again Peter
administered the sleep potion in the
first chapter. After that the Aus
trailan just naturally concluded that
luck was against him and he didn't
fight Maher any more.

BOARD OF HEALTH

The Board of Health has been a very
busy body the past week having been
in session nearly every day studying
the influenza proposition. 1t decided
that the safest course TO pursue was
to close up our schools, churches,
movie picture houses, theaters, pro-
hibit public gatherings, ETC., and it's
wishes have been rigidly observed.
There seems to be a difference of
opinion as regards to keeping open
the schools. Wausau was very sue
cessful at the time of the scarlet fever
epidemic a few years ago. Doctors
and nurses visited the schools each
day and examined the scholars, and
if there was any absent scholars,
nurses visited them at their homes,
ard in this very much was done to
stamp out the disease.
1t was announced Saturday that
schools throughout the state were
closed. but, we are told, that the
schools at Clintonville and other cities
were open on Monday the same as
usual. In Marathon county, as near
as can be learned all schools, public
and parochial are closed and are to
remain so until the State Board of
Health orders Otherwise. DR.. Spencer
of this city. who is a member of the
State Board of Health, and who cares
for a certain section of the state, is
a very busy man. He is constantly
wanted for consultation. Wausau has
plenty of cases of the influenza, but
we are told that in the county and
city, the number is far less compared
with other cities and counties, but
in few days it may be the other way
so it is better for all to take care OF
themselves,

i'm East

Private Arnold Geisler, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Carl Geisler, ST., 52S Forest
street, died last Wednesday night in a
hospital at Annapolis, Maryland, after
a brief illness. This young man is
added to the list of Marathon county

cording to kilograms received by his
parents, and Mr.. Geisler wired S. B.
Tobey, who was in the east at that
time, to go and inquire about his
sons condition, which he did. Mr..
Tobey telegraphed back to Wausau
that Arnold's condition was much bet
ter at that time, but he became dan
gerously i'll again according to a later
dispatch, and on Thursday morning

NORTH WOODS FIRES
1000 Reported Victims of the Forest
Fires Northeastern Minne-
sofa Burned Over

Forest fires swept the country about
Duluth on Sunday, and back of that
city the villages Adolph, Munger, Five
Corners, Barney, Grand Lake, Maple
Grove and Twig, which were thriving
communities Saturday morning are
almost entirely obliterated. Further
Brevator are recognizable only by sign
posts. Pike Lake and Pine Hill are
no more, while to the Moose Lake dis
trict is still a Smouldering ruin.
From these points thousands of
homeless persons have been brought
to Duluth, hundreds more taken to
Hinckley and points further south,
while many of those seriously burned
have been removed to hospitals in St.
Paul and Minneapolis after the last
available cot in the three general hos
pitfalls there had been occupied.
1t is estimated that the dead will
number over 1000 and many thous-
ands are homeless. The weather had
been dry and the woods were a mass
of leaves and the fire was famed by a
60 to 20 mile wind, which drove the
fire before it like a race-horse. The
fire was swept into Duluth, destroying
over 100 homes in Woodland, Lakeside
and Leslie Parks, the loss aggregat-
ing about $1,000,000.
1t was one of the most horrible
forest fires ever known in this coun-
try. Hundreds of bodies of men, wo-
men and children were strewn along
Minnesota highways. At Moose lake
and vicinity alone there were more
than 300 fire victims. The worst blaz-
es were at Moose Lake, Kettle River
and Cloquet.
Survivors say the fire approached
with the thunder of heavy artillery,
whitening everything before it. 1t Gre
ated great suction in addition to the
high wind, spreading with rapidity
that made it appear that the very at
mosphere was combustible. After
sweeping Moose Lake in less than
twenty minutes, the flames leaped
three-quarters of a mile across the
lake, igniting the brush and trees on
the opposite side like so much finder.
Telegraph. poles were cut off like
straws before scythe. Railroad ties
were consumed in the earth and the
rails themselves twisted and bent.

INFLUENZA IN THE CAMPS

At Camp Grant, while being well
fed, the soldiers are being excellently
cared for according to reports and
this is just as true of all camps A
system has been established in some
instances which has worked much
good. The Base Hospitals are so
crowded and nurses and physicians
so overworked that what is known as
Company Hospitals have been estab-
lished. In the latter, all not seriously
i'll are placed, as soon as a patient
shows bad symptoms, such as high
fever, etc, he is rushed by ambulance
es to the Base Hospital for better
treatment. If patient is chilly ali
he has to do is to say he is cold, when
plenty of clothing is brought him. Hot
lemonade is used plentifully and by
managing in this way many lives have
been saved. A patient is fed most
entirely on liquid food. Fruit juices
are given frequently. By taking an in
tluenZa patient promptly and placing
him in bed, keeping him there and not
allowing him to become chilly; feed
ing him on liquid food, goes a long
ways towards saving his life.
