The ENTERPRISE regrets to announce this week that the popular shoemen, Doud Muir, of Grand Rapids, have decided to close out their arge stock of boots, shoes, etc. as as they can.

They have already closed out at Wausau and are doing so at Pittsville. As was announced in the ENTERPRISE a week ago, Mr. Richard Kalbskopf, one of Doud Muir's experienced and trusted clerks, bought about half of their Wausau stock and has launched out in business for himself. The remainder of the stock was shipped to their store at rand Rapids where it was unpacked and placed this week. The reason for the closing out is that Mr.

Doud has engaged extensively in manufacturing at Winona and Mr. Muir will join him as soon as their present stock is disposed of. Mr. Muir and family are well known and highly thought of in the twin cities and their many friends here will regret to see them go. The firm will doubtless soon have some money saving bargains for those in need of footwear.

Meeting of Stockholders. The annual meeting of stockholders of the Port Edwards, Centralia Northern Railroad Company will be held at the depot of said railroad company in Centralia at ten o'clock, a. November 19, 1895, for the purpose of electing directors for the ensuing year and to transact such other business as may properly come before said stockholders. THOS. B.

August Fred William Steffen. The Concert. Bear Story. Mr. Leonard Kilian, the young insurance agent, was up-atr-Arpin one day this week.

He missed the train, and being unable to find a resting place for the night, decided to walk home. Upon arriving within about five miles of this city he came upon a big black beartrudging leisurely along the railroad track just ahead of him. Possessing only a small 22-calibre toy revolver, Leonard did not care to interview Mr. Bruin any closer, so he jogged along letting the bear keep a goodly distance ahead of him. The bear, noting how courageous his follower was, soon turned from the track and strolled off into the woods.

Mr. Kilian was sure it was a bear. He was postive it was not a coon. Someone suggested that it might have been black squirrel, but Mr. said he could tell the difference between a bear and a black squirrel even if he hadn't been brought up on cranberries and jerked venison.

Mr. Kilian finally persuaded E. H. Chapman, Preston Brothers' wagon maker, that it was a real bear that he saw, and so on Thursday, after the shades of night had spread a pall of darkness over the slumbering world, the two repaired to the place where the bear ought to be, somewhere in Section 21, Township 23 Range 5, and after searching diligently over this and several adjoining sections until early morn, returned home possessing only the imaginary carcass of a bear. Chapman says there wasn't even a bear track, nothing but the Port Edwards track in sight, and the only thing he saw in the shape of an animal was the shadow of a coon.

He has his opinion of a man who magnifies a coon two hundred times its natural size. Hiles, The Dairyman. Congregational Church. Rev. Wm, Kilburne, pastor.

Sabbath Services, Oct. 6, 1895. Morning worship, 10:30. Bible School, 12 m. Subject, "The time of the Judges." Junior Christian Endeavor 3:30 p.

in. Y. P. S. C.

E. 6:45 p. m. Topic, "The duty of happiness." Evening worship at 7:30. The musical and literary program rendered at the Congregational church Tuesday evening was in every way a fine entertainment.

The recitations given by Miss Mollie Connor, of Auburndale, were excellent, and the applause with which their rendition was greeted showed how thoroughly they were enjoyed by the audience. Miss Connor is a graduate of the Cumnock School of Elocution of the Northwestern University at Evans ton, and the fine training there received, added tq native talent, has made her an elocutionist of great power. The selections rendered were well chosen giving an opportunity for the display of a variety of emotions and situations. The musical part of the program was likewise of the very highest excellence. The two vocal solos rendered by Miss Florence Philleo were indeed a treat.

For sweetness and purity her voice can not be excelled. The duets by Misses Laura Reeves and Esther Thorn were also very fine. The last one, "Till we meet again," was especially pretty. The air was charming and the voices of the singers blended in perfect harmony. The two numbers by the Mandolin Club were, as is sure to be always the case, highly enjoyed.

Miss Ina Lynn presided at the organ as accompanist in her usual highly skillful manner. In a word the entire program was of high excellence and everybody went away highly satisfied. Notice. The veteran old lumberman, George Hiles, of Dexterville has entered heart and soul into farming and dairying. Some of the operations undertaken him in this direction were mentioned by the ENTERPRISE during the past few months.

He is now making preparations for entering extensively into dairying. He has built about ten miles of fence upon his marsh lands near Dexterville and has purchased through Mr. C. E. Compton, the lar meat market man, of Grand Rapids, the first of his large herd of milch- cows.

Mr. Compton delivered twenty- six cows last Friday, and another drove of twenty-four is being delivered to-day. These cows were bought in Wood and Adams counties. Mr. Hiles intends to increase the number of his herd before very long to about five hundred and erect a creamery of his own.

He has also set plow to about one thousand acres of these lands which he expects to sow to oats, millet etc. Mr. Hiles is thoroughly familiar with the soil of Wood county and he has unbounded confidence in its perfect adaptability to dairying and agriculture, and he backs his confidence by large investments in these industries. New Firm. Parties desiring bulbs for winter blooming or bedding purposes, hya- cinths, Easter lilies by the dozen, tulips ninety cents per hundred.

Cut I flowers and designs for all occasions I on short notice. Mrs. W. T. Jones.

Mr. J. D. Witter on Monday disposed of his interest in the extensive fire and life insurance business conducted for the past several years by the firm, Witter Taylor, to Mr. Will Scott, and since October 1st the business has been carried on by the new firm, Taylor Scott.

The new firm has also purchased the set of abstract books of Mr. Andrew Oettinger, and in connection with their insurance business will continue the abstract and conveyance office until recently in the hands of Mr. Oettinger. Mr. T.

A. Taylor, the senior member of the new firm, is an experienced and reliable insurance man. He has made the insurance business a close study. And as the new firm represents only reliable and strictly first class companies, any one desiring insurance can do no better than to entrust his business to Messrs. Taylor Scott.

Mr. Scott is also well known in business circles as a thorough business man in every way. Conveyancing also promptly attended to. Settlers to "Wood County. The ENTERPRISE was informed this week that there was a decided movement of settlers into the western towns of Wood west of Pittsville.

The land there is quite easiJy cleared, as the heavy timber has all been cut off of it.
