The Watersmeet ball club will
] play our nine on the home grounds
next SundaJ-. They viii run an ex-
cursion train from | Interior and wat
ersmeet returning in the evening.
The clubs arc very evenly matched
and q good game may be expected
Every one on the grounfs will be
expected to pay % cents to see the
| game AID if you cannot raise the
amount you had better stay away.
Frank Mitchell's store has been
considerably enlarged. The parti-
ton has been taken out between it
and the shoe shop in the rear and
/ it has all been made into one room,
giving him considerable more room
| for his business which has grown
/ far beyond the capacity sof the for
mer room william Persohn has
moved the shoe shop into the addi-
ton which he has recently built on
to his building.
AT the time when the Rhinelan-
der party made the excursion up the
/ lakes a few Sundays ago E. 5. Ander
son had shot gun stolen from the
tent where he with party from here
were camping. Last Tuesday while
R. Slattery was coming to town
OveI. tbe trail taken by the excursion
lists after the boat broke down he
found the gun laying beside the path
where some Of the party had dropped
it. They evidently found it too heavy
over the wind falls that night and
SO LETT it where it was found.
The O, F. WIS. beat the Eagle Riv-
err team ir both the Saturday and
Sunday games The score in the first
game standing II to 3 and in the lat
ter game II TO 0. Baldwin was struck
hard, besides receiving poor support.
In the first inning OF the Sunday game
Hall had a finger split open and
could play no longer, Baldwin then
went into catch and Van Erlnine
pitched. He also was struck hard.
jones' the Rhinelander pitcher was
also hit nard, but good fielding conn
bined with the crippled condition of
our players prevented them scoring.
The Amigo ball team made ar
rangements to play here last Sun
day. They We're intending to get
Clausen the Milwaukee league pit
cher who is now in Rhinelander end
Donahue, the Rhinelander catcher to
play for them but us they were go
;ng to play against us in RhinelanGer
Saturday Amigo could not get them
for the Sunday game and so they
backed out and VIZ l,not play. Our
c.uD must ii. getting quite reputa
ton when outside clubs think it ne
glossary to load q /, with league bat
les in order to play us. We don't
pretend to be professionals but are
willing TO play any of the alnatuer
mines around here but do not feel like
going against a professional battery
Our boys all work for their Lying
and have no time to play or practice
except Sunday and it is croWding
the moulners to ring in professionals
against them,
Mot only the Eagle River ball
club but those who We;iJ down to
see the game and the town itself was
roasted to the queens taste at the
game Saturday. The people evident
Nv had it in for us for beating their
team up here and determined to
make it as disAgreeable for us as
possible They carried it SO far that
they even Disguised some OF their
own number present. This week
we received q COMMUNICATION from a
Rhinelander gentleman on the sub
iect which he desired printed. AS
shown by the communication this
Gen tleman was particularly incensed
by the treatment the visiting club re-
ceiyed and considered some of the re-
marks mace not Ohly Il ulSSIdCo 70
the person using them but to the
whole town. AS we donot Wish to stir
ND aninosities between the two pla
ces we refrain from printing the com
munication as it is very bitter in its
denunciation of the treatment which
we received and somewhat personal
as well. The gentleman, however,
has our thanks for his good will.
