JUST our VI Grear Men.


The country is always "iust out" OF
great nen. The death of the poet Lowell,
the perpetual invalidism of Whitman
and the great age of Whittier have led
many papers of late to lament the decay
OF American poetry. These great mas
ters OF their art, we are told, will leave
no successors behind them. But great
men, from the standpoint Of their con-
temporaries, never leave any successors
behind This is due to the fact that a
great man is not visible until he has re-
ceded to a great distance. He is usually
measured pretty accurately after he is
dead After Washington, Hamilton
Jay and jefferson died the lament was
raised that the age of statesmen had
passed. The great heroic figures of our
history had passed off the stage of action
and left no successors. This lament was
raised. too, when Webster, Clay, Cal
houn and jackson were in the full flush
Of remarkable powers.
fter these great men had left the
stage of action the lament was again
raised that the age of great men had

WHAT Is YOUR Sun TO BE
A FIELD OFFERED BY THE GROW
ING ELECTRIC BUSINESS.

The Advance in Electricity Has Been So
Rapid That It Has Progressed Faster
Than the Intelligence Necessary ia
Handle It-GOod Wages Paid.
Two men were sitting face to face be
tween the car tracks on Park row the
other day 1t seemed to be a dangerous
position. for they could not follow theii
work and at the same time keep theil
eyes on the rafting teams on either
hand They had to keep their elbows
in, too, or the cars would bump them.
They were seated at manhole, testing
cables of wire which were in the subway
beneath. Each had the end of cable
in hand and portable galvanometer-s
square box about the size of a cigar box
in front of him.
But few years ago the man engaged
in connecting wires in this way touched
the tip of each wire in turn to the tip OF
his tongue If there was current run
ming through the wire he felt little
pricking and sour taste. He did this
the whole day through, md was none the
worse for receiving so many slight elec-
tric shocks and tasting so much copper.
1t was very primitive test. but very
good one, and old wire testers still use it
when in a hurry. But soon a galvan-
ometer was made. which not only finds
the current but gives some idea of its
strength The rapid way in which in
vention has been piled upon invention in
the electrical! world is marvellous, and it
seems surprising that sufficient num-
Der Of workmen of sufficient intelligence
should be found in such hurry TO prac-
tioally put these inventions into use.
A question upon this very point was
put TO a well known electrician who
happened to saunter by the two men at

he said. "As a matter Of fact, the busi-

intelligence necessary to handle it, and
many accidents are due TO that fact. The

Baseball.

The most exciting game of ball ever
played here WAS the one of last Friday
afternoon, when the Sheboygan club
played their first game in our city with
the Schiller 4 Quentmeyers. The con-
ditions were not the best for good ball
playing, the day being dark and the
grounds heavy and muddy from the
recent rains. However, very inter-
esting game was witnessed, eleven in
nings being necessary to decide the
contest. The Sheboygans are without
doubt the strongest team Of ball tOssers
in every department that ever visited
Watertown. They did not allow our
boys run until the ninth inning, when
Owens and Fowler came home and tied
the score. The excitement at this
point was intense, and continued 80 to
the close of the game. Both sides were
BANKED in the tenth, although the S.
& Q.'s had two men on bases. In the
eleventh the Sheboygans made five
runs on some good hitting, aided by
errors Of their opponents. This lead
was too great for the home team to
overcome, although they succeeded in
getting three men across the plate, and
the game closed with a score of Z to 5
in favor of Sheboygan. Following is
the complete score:
