IF the tests at Sandy Hook are to be relied on. the American rapid-fre gun can fire more shots in a one-minute test than any other yet invented. The figure was thirty-four rounds, or more than one every two seconds. War cor respondents will have to invent some new expression to describe the solid sheets of sound.

CUBA can point with pride. though not with comfort. to the fact that the Cuban pays more than double the taxes paid by an inhabitant of Spain, and far more than the most heavily-taxed Flu ropean. Cuba is gem of an island for rich productions and the tax-gatherers.

Mr.. CasweII Candidate for Governor.

In another column will be found q
Better from Charles H. Everett, presl-
dent of the Wisconsin Dairymen's as
sociation, and others, to Hon. IL. b.
Caswell asking him to become cam
didate for governor, and that gentle
mans reply indicating his willingness
TO accept the nomination if rendered
TO him.
That Mr.. Caswell would make an
excellent chief magistrate is d self-evl-
dent proposition. He possesses all
the necessary qualifications for the
office, and it's affairs in his hands
would be efficiently and honestly adj
ministered. His nomination, we think,
would be especially strong with the
farmers whose interests he cham
Dioned in congress in forcing to a sue
cessfuI issue the bill taxing oleomar-
garine, which put into the pockets OF
the dairymen of the state hundreds OF

securing the passage of the direct tax
bill by which Wisconsin WAS made
SAG, 900 richer are yet remembered
to his credit; as is the fact that he
was the father of the law reducing let
ter postage from three to two cents.
His whole career In congress was that
of faithful representative of the peo-
pie, and his record is absolutely free
from flaw or Flemish. We have not
one word to say in disparagement of
any OF the other candidates. They
are capable men and would guide the
ship of state with honor to themselves
and credit to the commonwealth.
Mr.. Caswell, however, IS their peer In
all respects and would fill the guber-
material chair with equal success and
dignity.

Baseball.

The ball game at Fond du Lac on
Memorial day, between the Athletics
of that city and the A. Quentmeyers,
was won by the latter by a score of
to s. Concerning the game The Fond
du Lac Reporter says:
''Tbe north wind blew coldly, and it
was difficult to understand how ball
could be played, but it was played in
manner that has seldom been wit
messed on a local diamond. The Ath-
letics didn't have their usual luck. if
they had they would still have their mo
lost game record. With men on bases
some of the players seemed to have
chances to carry off the game, but they
didn't do it. WATERFOWL won the game
| by its battery work j. Smith, the
| twirler, could twist the ball as good as
| he could his face, and the Fond du
! Laos could not find him when the OC-
| casion simply called for nice single
| to briL in two runs. Smith Is pitch
er of ability. He is too strong for
| the ma ority of amateur organizations,
! but the Athletics did some surprising
work even with him in the box"
On Decoration day the Sacred Heart
college team defeated the Jefferson
high school team at the ball park in
this city by score of 10 to 2. The

! of Farrell, and he was well supported
| by his fellow players. The summary

At City Mission Hall.

Every seat was taken at the City Mission hall at the gipsy festival given by the children of the City Mission, and 1t was heartily enjoyed by all, including the children themselves. The success of this part of the evenings entertainments is due to the careful training of the children by Miss A. D. Fogg, under whose direction it WIS given, assisted by Mrs. A E Jones and her son, Harry E. Jones. The pro. gram which preceded was heartily sp
 plauded, and the recitations of Miss Min
 nie Belle Kay, the songs of Miss Maria J.
 Ward of St. Mary's choir, and the piano solos and duets by Mrs. Jones and Mics Edna Sperry received well-deserved encores. Mr. John c.

 assisted in the children's work.

Delaware and Hudson was another weak spot, falling from 14o to 1ss4.
