THE game of base ball last Saturday
between the Plugs and Grannies was the
most remarkable event of the season.
On the recommendation of boss Plug,
the price of admission was fixed at one
dollar so as to shut out the audience. A
suggestion to change the Two Rivers fell
lows two dollars so as to keep the opposi-
ton out was not acted upon in time. 10
Rankin umpired the game and RUDE
Smart scored; so did every player on the
ground. White washes were ruled out
and catches on the fly were tabooed.
Manitowoc won the toss and chose to go
to bat, believing that half an inning
would go out with the brightness in the
west, and that Two Rivers would never
see first base. Each man went to bat
and struck till the last armed foe expired.
The bags were covered with dust and
men were placed on them so that base
runners could reach the bases without a
critical search The out field with EARNS
extended wide" ran races with balls bat
ted out there, while the in field looked
on and thanked God they were not as
other men," The captain of the Mani
towocs was II. G. Their first baseman
was occupied with a very important ques-
ton as to which posture gave the max
imum of ease, and finally concluded that
his s'back to the field and his feet to the
foe met all requirements. Short stop
was played with rare excellence and that
player was greeted with repeated rounds
of applause. Among the Two Rivers,
Fishbein and Conine were champions in
mastery inactivity, but they could not
approach the Manitowoc out field. Two
Rivers won by the inverse score Of Il to
81. But six innings were played as the
scorer had exhausted every scrap of pa
per in the field and three rapid account
ants who were figuring up the errors
gave ont from sheer exhaustion.

DEATH OF JOHN PRELL.

John Proen, Register of Deeds for
Manitowoc county, died on Saturday
evening at 10 O'Clock after a brief but
painful illness. Just one week before
his death he visited his father in Eaton.
While there he was attacked by the
cholera morbus, but under the attendance
of DIR. Hayes, of that place, so far recov-
cred as to be able to be removed to his
home in this city. He seemed to do
very well until Friday night when he
grew worse SO rapidly that his life was
despaired Of. He was unconscious Oh
Saturday and died at the hour above
stated Mr.. Proell was born in Upper
Austria in the year 1914 and was 80 years
old at the time of his death. He emf
grated to this country in 1853. He lived
for long time in Eaton, this county,
taught school there and held the position
of town clerk and Justice of the Peace.
He was elected to the Office of Register
of Deeds in the fall of 1876, and re-elect-
ed last fall. He was married to Miss
Alkaline Stiefvetter Jnne 26, 1877, and
leaves one child about one year old.
His funeral took place on Tuesday.
Appropriate services were held In the
Catholic church in this city and a funeral
sermon was preached by Rev. ID. Jacobs.
The funeral procession reached st. Naz-
ians about 2 o'clock p. NJ, and was one
of the largest ever seen in this county.
Services were also held at the church in
st. Nazians and at the cemetery there.
Mr.. Proell was a faithful and competent
officer, a good citizen who enjoyed the
respect of every one who knew him. He
was man of retiring disposition and
took pride in doing his duty well and
without ostentation. His life was blame
less and there lives not man who does
not respect his memory.

The Fish Com mission of this state
works in mysterious way. The mem
bers have rare faculty of saying just
what they don't mean. Last spring no
tice was sent to this city that fish intend
ed for Pigeon lake would arrive here on
certain day. A gentleman from Nee
me came distance of fourteen miles to
take the fish out, but found he couldn {
have any unless he purchased them from
Jenny Patterson. Last Wednesday no.
tice came from Mr.. Welcher that the fish
would be here on Thursday night. Word
was again sent to Meme and two farmers
put III an appearance and patiently
awaited the arrival of the evening ex-
press. They were rewarded for their
pains by learning that the weather was
too warm for fish, and the two men had
to return to their homes a distance of
fifteen miles with full consciousness of
the beautiful workings of the fish COM
mission. 1t was fun for the commission
but rather trying to the farmers.

SUIT. WALKER is quite prominently
mentioned rs suitable candidate for the
state superintendency. 1t is not Mani
towoc county that first urged his claims,
but teachers in different parts of the state
whose reputation makes their support
valuable. There can be no doubt that
Mr.. Walker viii receive the nomination
and the prospects of an election are far
from hopeless. Mr.. Walker is popular
throughout the state wherever known,
and his acquaintance is extensive. He
has been and is prominent member OF
the State Teachers Association, and en-
joys the confidence of educational men.
4 better nomination could not be made.
