Daughter of James Meehan
Mrs. Pfffner was a daughter of
James Meehan, one Of the Meehan
brothers, who in the pinery days were
among the most prominent loggers and
lumbermen in Portage county. Her
maiden name was Mary Meehan, but
throughout her life she was familiar
ly known as Mollie, by which her
friends, especially the older ones best
remember her. She was born January
+ 13. 1857, on a farm at Honey Greek,
near Baraboo, Sauk county. When she
was three years of age her parents
moved to Grand Rapids, Wis, and that
city was the family home for sever

brother. Patrick Neehan, located near
what became known as Meehan sta

PLAN CLUBHOUSE
ON RIVER BANKS

Plans for community clubhouse,
and park which it is proposed to erect
near the river north of the city were
discussed at the meeting of the Cham
Der of Commerce at the City Hall Mon
day night.
J. A. Cohen, suggested the plan by
which this city might unite with
Marshfield and Stevens Point and
build a large clubhouse, with amuse-
ment grounds, tennis courts, and
golf course, to be located above the
city, so that it would be accessible
from all three communities. Presi-
dent Normington appointed Mr.. CO.
hen, T. A. Taylor and Guy 0. Babcock
to take up the idea with the citizens
of the other two cities.
A committee of three were also ap-
pointed to approach the officials of
the traction system in regard to run
ming street cars over the bridge, when
the new structure is completed.

ARRESTED ON CHECK CHARGE

Otto Baganz, charged with passing
a spurious check for S1498 on John
Magnuson, a resident of Auburndale.
on January IL, was arraigned before
Justice E. n. Pomainville on Friday
and was booked under the charge for

represented Baganz in court.
The paper in question was drawn on
the Auburndale bank, and it is alleg-
ed that the defendant had not suffi-
cient funds on deposit to cover it. At
ter cashing the check he disappeared,
but was arrested at Appleton, and was
brought from there by Sheriff c. W.
Bluett on Thursday.
Baganz troubles were caused, it IS
claimed by the fact that at one time

large expenditures with the idea that
conditions would improve He has
been married about one year, and is
working in Appleton.

BAD FIRE CUTS
F. TURbIN HOME

Fire believed to have originated
from an over-heated furnace caused a
loss estimated at more than $500 at
the residence of Ed Turbn on Fourth
street south, about 1880 Thursday
morning.
The departments from both sides
of the river made the run to the scene
of the blaze and several lines of hose
were laid into the basement, where
the source of the trouble seemed to be
Thick smoke which shrouded the place
in. veritable fog rendered the work
of the firemen doubly difficult
Prior to the arrival of the two COM
panies, however, the fire had spread
upward and was burning inside the
interior walls of the first and second
stories. Before the last spark was ex-
tinguished, the firemen were forced to
tear away considerable plaster here
and there in the house in order to get
at the blaze with the water.
Considerable damage was done to
the walls by the water soaking thru
the plaster, and the furnishings were
also badly saturated. Members of the
family state that the interior of the
/ home is a total loss.
Mr. Turbin has the property insur.
ed with local agencies for about $4,000
sufficient amount to cover ali damages

ST. MARYS
HOSPITAL
At WAUSAU

1t is pleasure for us to say a good
word for an institution that is run
right and where patients receive the
best care and efficient treatment. We
have had occasion to visit this hos
pital several times during the past
four weeks and have been able to
Judge for ourselves. The hospital is
beautifully located upon a high ele-
walton overlooking the city of Wausau.
1t consists of brick building with
basement and three stories, able to
accommodate fifty-two patients and
more when necessary by doubling up.
1t is equipped with the most modern
operating rooms and cOnveniences for
the proper care of patients. An addi-
tion again the size of the present
building is going to be erected this
summer to accommodate the demands
made upon them. The increasing de-
mands made upon them necessitates
this addition.
Mother Superior, Sister Klevera,
who is in charge of the hospital, re-
ceived her wonderful medical educa
tion and much of her practical expert
ence in Rome. She has been connect
ed with this hospital since its estab-
lishment IN Wausau II years ago. She
is ably assisted by twenty-six other
sisters. The care and attention given
all patients who come there is special
" noted by those who have been there.
The Sisters untiring efforts in the
care and attention for the comfort of
their patients is truly remarkable.
St Mary's Hospital is specially for
tunate in having on the medical staff
some of the ablest surgeons and ply
sicians to be found in the state. They
are especially fortunate in having SO
eminent and noted a surgeon as DR..
Joseph Smith. DIR. Smith was at one
time connected with Mayo Bros. hos
pital at Rochester, Mimi, before COM
ing to Wausau. Associated with him
is Dr. Merritt Jones and together they
have performed a great many remark
able operations and have been most
successful
DIR. Willard is the eye, ear, nose and
throat specialist in connection with
this institution.
Grand Rapids has had many peo-
pie who have been patients there and
they all speak in the highest terms of
the care and treatment by the physi-
clans and Sisters.
