Columbia Gas and Electric stock

Yesterday, even through the trying Pc
Rod when Is per cent call money sent
shivers up and down the spines of the

in certain quarters in Wall Street that
stockholders in the company are to
benefit directly from the 200 per cent
stock dividend recently declared by the
United Fuel Gas Company, in which
the Columbia has a large interest. It
that its equity in United Fuel is worth
in the neighborhood of $3o0o0,0O0, or
more than so per cent on Columbia Gas

prise the Street if the directors of the
company when they meet next Monday
at Cincinnati should declare liberal
dividend in stock.

Divergent Opinions

Professional opinions on the market
are widely divergent. The growing
tightness of money is producing con-
servatism in quarters where since
February there has been more or less
bullish enthusiasm. Few observers be-
lieve that the market is likely to go
down much. But most market experts
wonder how much higher industrial
distribution. A number of Stock Ex-
change houses are advising their eli
ents to play safe and buy rails. The
trading element has been more or less
COMPOUNDED by the strength of the mar
ket in the face of an imposing array
of unfavorable developments.

FATAL ACCIDENT
Leon Peneau Falls From the
Bridge Crossing the River
From the Island.

Our people were startled Monday
morning by the announcement that
Leon Peneau had been found dead on
the ice near the west bank of the Wis
consin river, by Richard McCloskey,
night Waterman of the Curtis 6 Yale
company. Coroner Meilahn was called
and with policeman +. d. Barden, the
body was carried to the bank of the
river and it was found that the young
man was Leon Peneau whose parents
reside at 81 Elm street. He carried
an army registration card by which
he was identified. 1t seems that he
was hurrying home to get his grip as
train for Milwaukee, Tickets for
his pocket. 1t is thought he stum-
head striking an iron beam which
produced fracture of The skull. The
fall to the ice was distance of II or
Is feet and this further stunned him.
From all appearances he must have
lived several hours after the accident.
The coroner, after the investigation,
concluded that it was unnecessary to
hold an inquest.
Deceased .Yc-s born in Wausau on
on the 2lst day Of March, 1889, and
his death, therefore occurred on his
birthday. He is survived by his par
ents, six brothers and five sisters.
The funeral services will take place
from st. James church Thursday
morning, the Rev. Father e P.
O'Toole officiating. Interment will
be in st. Joseph cemetery.

FINDS MUCH TO PRAISE IN
AMERICAN ARTISTS

Zurich SwitZerland-New York NIL
sicians will no doubt remember Flo
rizel Won Reuter-, who quite num-
Der of years ago astoniShed musical
circles as a wonderchild on the violin.
He lives now in Zurich and has ma
tured into a Ena artist. ~ Some find
him lacking in emotional warmth, but
all agree as to his wonderful technic
and his fine musicianship, which lat
ter is also evidenced by an opera he
wrote, and which he recently played
before an intimate circle of musicians.
His name also often appears in the
newspapers as an interesting writer
or musical subjects. Last month he
gave Sunday morning recitals on
four consecutive Sundays, at which
he performed all the ten Beethoven
sonatas for piano and violin in chron-
illogical order, as we'll as the three
Brahms sonatas in conjunction with
the pianist, Mrs. Guida Rawson Fran
ken. Before this series, he gave an
other one, at which he played all the
six unaccompanied sonatas by Bach,
as we'll as the six violin concertos by
Mozart. These programs proved him
to be an earnest and espiring artist,
and the press commented upon his
work most favorably. On another
program of his he played all the TWEEN
ty-four caprices of Paganini, a gigan-
tic task and more of display of great
ability than any unalloyed pleasure to
the audience, even though the cap
rices possess some musical value in
addition to their technical one.-Mu-

NEW BEEKEEPING METHOD
WILL BE TAUGHT

The University of Wisconsin through
the Extension Division of the College
of Agriculture will conduct a three
day bee school in Wausau on March
20, so, and 81 at New Central School.
Special attention will be given to
new and un-to-date methods in hand
ling bees. The entire third day will
be given over to the discussions of bee
diseases and their control During
the last 20 years the number of colo
mics of bees in Wisconsin has de-
creased from over 100000 to less than
$4,000 These losses have in a great
part been due TO foulbrood which de-
stoys the young bees in the combs.
1t is possible to control these diseases
by the proper ksndling of bees and
these different manipulations will be
taken up in detail at the school. The
school will be conducted by H. L. Nc
hurry, cooperative field agent in Bee
keeping, q. s. Department of Agri-
culture. cooperating with the Univer-
sity OF Wisconsin.

NO TRUTH IN THE STORIES

The past week there have been
stories floating about our city and as
stories 81, they became distorted and
enlarged, as they passed from one to
another until they became positively
awful All to the effect that some of
our merchants had been charged with
profiteering by a government official,
upon evidence which has been duly
gathered, and taken before the federal
court at Lacrosse. Now the stories
probably started from accounts in
papers about merchants who had been
engaged in real profiteering, and final
ly the stories included some of our
merchants. No, there is not a word
of truth in them. No officer has
charged any of our merchants with
protiteering and none have been called
to Lacrosse on that charge.
The Pilot does not believe Wausau
has merchants who have, in the least
degree, engaged in profiteering.

HELD PROVERBS IN HONOR
Greatest Men In the Pages Of History
Have Left Testimony to
That Effect.

That proverbs have always been
dear to the true intellectual aristoc-
racy of nation, there is abundant
evidence to prove. Take but these
three names in evidence, which are
in themselves host. Aristotle made
a collection of proverbs; nor did he
count that he was doing herein aught
unworthy of his great reputation |;
however, some of his adversaries may
have made this charge against him.
He is said to have been the first who
did so. though many others have fol-
lowed in the same path. Shakespeare
loves them so well that besides often
citing them. and innumersble covert
illusions. rapid side chances at them,
which We are In danger Of missing
unless we are at home in the proverbs
of England, several OF his plays, as
"ssdeesure for Measure" "Al's Well
That Ends Well" have proverbs for
their titles. And Cervantes, a name
only inferior TO Shakespeare, has not
left US In doubt in respect Of the affec-
ton with which he regarded them.
Every reader Of Don Quixete' will
remember his squire. who sometimes
cannot open his mouth but there drop
from 1t almost as many proverbs as
words might name others who held
the proverb In honor-men who.
though they may not attain to these
three. are yet deservedly accounted

CHRIST FRANZEN

The many old time friends of Christ
Franzen of Stratford, were shocked
to learn that he passed away at his
home in Stratford, Saturday, March
20, 1920, after brief illness. Mr..
Franzen, though over three score and
ten, when last in Wausau, seemed to
be in good health and looked as if he
still had long lease of life. He was
a popular man in our county having
for many years represented his town
on the County Board and for a number
Of years was its chairman. He had
the perfect confidence, respect and es-
TEEN Of all who knew him and his
kind, sympathetic nature drew to him

vessel and travelled to various parts
of the world. He came to America
and for time was a sailor on the
Great Lakes. He went on to a farm
in the town of Berger in 1877. He
was a good manager and accumulated
sufficient to take life easy in his de-
clining years. In 1903 he sold his
property and gave up the, life of a
farmer, moving to Stratford. He was
honored many times with various of
hces among them assessor, justice of
