MARSHFIELD GIRL SAW
BLIMP TRAGEDY

Miss Josephine Miller of Marshfield
was in the Illinois Trust and Savings
bank building when the dirigible
crashed through the skylight killing
a number of people. The Marshfield
News contains a letter from her:
81 didn't even know the machines
were in the air. 1t was Monday and
we were all little late. My depart

had balanced with the general book
keepers at 4:50, glanced at the clock
and went back to my desk ready to
leave for home when suddenly some
thing crashed through the skylight
and exploded when it landed, and the
whole place was in fire.
Il didn't even think; l made my
way to window, and when police
man opened the bolted door near our
department / was out in one DASH
Later, when the flames were down, /
went back in~and~ d~watched for few
hours. All the stenographers who
were sitting where the machine fell
were killed. Everything was pretty
sad at the bank today. They were
girls we lunched with and knew. At
first we thought it was a bomb. 1t
is terrible to think of such a thing
dropping through a skylight and kill
ing so many human beings"

INDIAN COPPER SPEAR

In driving to Rhinelander last
Sunday over highway 63, the car
driven by Gus. and Peter Hedeen
picked up genuine old-time copper
spear head, which came to their no.
tice when the front tire went fiat
This section of the highway to
Rhinelander from Eagle River had
just shortly been rebuilt by the Onei-
da county road crew. Evidently the
plough, scraper and drag had brought
to the surface this ancient relic OF
the hardened copper age, and the
sharp shaft had imbedded itself into
the tire. The copper spear head said
to be an absolutely genuine article by
Finn Lawler, had lain for scores OF
years about mile from the border
soloon building just off the Villas
county highway.
1t is in almost a perfect state OF
preservation, and is tempered so hare
that a file barely cuts into the hard.

ATTRACTIONS FOR.
COUNTY FAIR
MARTIN FIREWORKS WILL
ENTERTAIN ON THREE
EVENINGS

The Marathon County Agricultural
society is preparing for it's largest
and best fair. According to Louis H.
Cook. secretary, the officers and di-
Fectors of the association have to date
been able to obtain a series of free
entertainments, a carnival company
and other attractions which will
prove a big satisfaction during the
week August 26th to 18th.
Fireworks
The Martin Fireworks company has
been engaged and will present more
elaborate display of works that it has
in past years when it has visited
Wausau. Many features of the war
just over will be worked into its pro-
gram. Free acts will also take place
on the rostrum in front of the grand
stand. Wits Carnival company, one
of the largest in the middle west, will
appear on the grounds. Music will
be furnished in plenty.
That exhibits should be the finest
that have been placed on show in
several years is the belief of associa-
tion members who have been about
the county lately. Crops are in ex-
ceilent shape, their development hav-
ing been especially complete during
the past several weeks Much dairy
may be expected, more than hitherto.
A large exhibit of poultry is expected
many farms having added pure bred
stock during the past several years.
Alterations
The comfort station is already in
the process of construction. 1t will
be modern and will be located con-
Veniently. Drinking fountains, eight
in number, are to be arranged near
the exposition building. This has
been found almost a necessity. To
obtain a drink of water it has in
years past been necessary to make
quite a search, and then to use a
glass, made unsanitary by its frequent
use. The race track will receive
c Instant attention from now on, it is
reported, and should be in excellent
condition. This year should see some
of the best and fastest races held on
the local ground in long time.
