FOURTH OBSERVED SANE.
LY BY PEOPIT OF CITY
AT PEACE JUBILEE

The Fourth of July did not seem as
enthusiastic an observance of the de-
claration of independence as in years
gone by. Little noise or excitement
was to be found in any part of the
city. Fireworks were not heard
bursting and resounding in the dis
lance, the laws of the state prohibit
ing that sort of celebration. People
moved about as usual, save that hun
dreds and thousands fiocked to the
fair grounds to enjoy the peace jubilee
and Industrial exhibition.
Occasionally the quiet of the resi-
Dental districts was broken by the ex-
plosion of a frecracker-butt that one
was without a doubt a LEFTOVER" of
some year past.
Friday evening the fair grounds was
choked with those who were looking
for excitement Fireworks took up
a short time but were not IS impress
i've as it had been expected. At Roth
schild park an exceptional crowd
danced until the early hours of the
morning. The Stars and Stripes were
in evidence throughout the city.

BUY BOTTLING WORKS OF
MATHIE BREWING co.

The Kielsmeier Creamery Company,
which recently located an Office in
Wausau to take care of it's creamery
business in this section of Wisconsin
and which has been located at 511
Forest street, last week purchased the
bottling works of the Mathie Brewing
Company The transaction is perhaps
one of the most important that has
taken place in a considerable period
of time
A creamery will be started in the
bottling works building within several
weeks, following the completion of
changes and alterations which will be
made by the concern within the next
several weeks as was arranged by
Rudolph Kielsmeier of Manitowoc. Mr..
Kielsmeier was in the city the latter
part of the week for the purpose of
concentrating the dear. At the pres
ent time the concern, which started
operations in Wausau only several
months ago, is cramped for room and
the use of the newly acquired property
must be had shortly. Butter and
cheese will be made. The amount of
the transaction has not been given.

DEATH OF HERMAN
(. MARQUARDT
EX-MAYOR PASSES AWAY
AT HIS HOME ON
SATURDAY

Among those who have grown to
prominence in our city, who had
gained the love and respect of his
fellow men, was Herman E. Mar
quardt. For many years in public
life, his name became a familiar one
in every household. After a lingering
illness, he passed away at his home
on Saturday afternoon, July 5th 1919
at 230 o'clock Only his family, close
relatives and intimate friends knew
that his life was drawing to a close,
and the announcement that he had
succumbed to the inevitable was a
shock to the community and was re-
ceived with sincere expressions of
sorrow throughout the city.
Man OF People
Herman Marquardt was essentially
man of the people. 1t was his
ever pleasant and kindly ways, the
disposition to render assistance to
every human being who needed it, that
made him so popular and so highly
regarded and esteemed by all who
knew him. He was the personification
of devotion, not only in his family but
to his friends, 9eighbors and human
ity at large. He never lost an op-
portunity to do a kindly act; it was
his nature and his memory will be
cherished by this generation. That
he has been cut down in the very
prime of life is not only great af-
Fiction to his family and relatives,
but a loss to Wausau, the city in
which he had grown to be such a
power for good
He was i'll the lead in every move
ment tending to the advancement of
