The visitors had strong team; in fact
the best that part Of the state could pro-
duce, but still our local team was able to
compete successfully with them III both
games.
Some 'red hot" sport from Wausau
hung up some five and ten dollar prizes
| for their team! the player who made a
home run off Diamond was toreceive ten
dollars and the one who made the most
hits five dollars. III Saturdays game but
two hits were made off Diamond and
these by different batters, so we would
suggest that this admirer Of the Wausau
team use his ''prize money in trying to
secure the Home for the Feeble Minded,
which the down river town is trying to
secure, instead OF hanging up prize Tor
their hitters which they never will be
able to secure while playing against our
boys.
In Saturdays game our boys had on
their batting clothes. We took long
draughts from the cup OF revenge. Oh
that horsehide sphere! We hit it, we
pounded it, we smashed it, we bangedit,
we thrashed it. we sounded it, we pum-
melIed it, ard never fumbled it, and at
last a weary expression came over
that young pitchers face. He was real
ling that he instead ofDiamond, would
have to seek his former profession if he
was lucky enough to have one.
Diamond was in great form, holding
the heavy sluggers" down to two
scratch hits and striking out twelve Of
their number. In this game they sue
ceeded in getting but one ball into the
outfold.

show he had no hard feelings against the
Wausauites, he caught one of Futtle's

men on bases scored and he securely rest

.How to take Care OF Umbrellas.

After coming in out of the rain, let
the umbrella down and stand it on the
handle, that it may dry in this posi-
ton, the water will thus drip from the
edges of the frame, and the cover dry
uniformly. When placed with the
handle upward, as is frequently done,
the water runs to the top of the umbrel-
la, and the moisture is there retained
in the lining underneath the ring for
some length of time, causing the silk
or fabric with which the frame is COW
cred to become tender and soon rot.
Ordinarily the top of an umbrella
wears out sooner than the other part
of it, and in the majority of cases may
be thus accounted for. A silk umbrel-
la is much injured by being left open
to dry the silk becomes stretched and
stiff, and will sooner split thus cared
for. When not in use let the folds lie
loose, not fastened down the creases
are less apt to split from this usage.
Dispense with an umbrella case, except
in travelling, as protection from dust
and cinders.

Distinguished for Their Courtesy.

Lafayette was remarkable no less for
his tact and courtesy than for the stern
er virtues which made him dear to
two nations.
During his visit to Boston on his re-
turn to this country, lady with whom
ne was dining, brought up the subject
of the Revolution, asking him many
question as to the details of its history.
Among them was the inquiry, "Was
not the cockade worn at first by the
Americans black, general ?"
"Yes," was the reply. 1--WE wore
black cockade until the French joined
US, and then, in compliment to them,
we added the white ribbon"
Lafayette belonged to q time and
race that held the fine art of gentle
speech as of the first importance.
Louis himself puzzled his jailers by
his gentle politeness. His children,
we are told, enraged their keepers by
their mild answers. '"They robbed us
of our bread" cried Thouret, land pay
US with smiles and bows.n
The fact was, that the ruling class
in those days had never taught to be
Just to their interiors, but courtesy had
been instilled into them from their
childhood.
In France as in America, men now
are more just than were their forefath-
ers. The rights of even the poorest
citizen are now recognized and pro-
tected. A more assertive charity, too,
is manifest in our religion, but we neg
leCt the minor virtues of tact and fine
civility.
The slow, gentle progress of our an
cestors, bowling to either side through
life, seems to us absurd, but we could
add attractiveness to the greater virtues
by clothing them with courtesies that
grace and elevate even the humblest
life.-Youth's Companion.

He is necessarily bull-headed, or else
he would recognize the right of others

He is narrow, because he vainly
supposes that by stopping his paper
he will either discourage the line of
policy which the editor is inclined to
pursue, or suppress the paper by the
withdrawal of the few paltry dollars
which he pays annually for more than
value received.
His Judgment Is bad because he
fails to recognize the fact that with
progressive and popular newspaper the
percentage of ''stops" is so infinitesi-
mally small in comparison with the
new subscribers which come in every
day that they are hardly ever noticed
in the business office.

federate Army with an unselfish pur-
pose, and because he loved his coun.
try. His military education, soldierly
bearing, and qualities of character for
command, were recognized early in the
war by those charged with preparation
for the conflict. Although very
young man, his abilities and gallantry
brought him easily to the command of
the Sd s. G. Infantry. No better Sc

fully justified the confidence reposed
in him and died at the head of his gal
liant regiment 1T the Wilderness, in
in May, 1854. The Third was said to
have been one of the very best drilled,
disciplined regiments in the Army of
Northern Virginia. Col. Nance devot-

complishments to the improvement
and comfort of his command, and
right worthily did his men respond to
his efforts. 1t is safe to assume that
he would have worn the stars of

not carried him off.
All honor to his chivalrous, splendid
character, and to you his surviving
comrades for commemorating his dis

l cannot convey to you in language
sufficiently expressive how much
pleasure it gives me to be with you to
day. This county furnished to the
military organizations in the Confed
crate Army, with which / had the
honor to be associated, some of their
very best material, and the flight OF
more than thirty years, since we part
ed as soldiers of the Grand Army o1
the Confederacy. has not dimmed the
glory of their comradeships, or dimin.
lshed any atfectionate regard for all
sturdy veterans, who marched and
fought and suffered and bled and died
under the starry cross. They come up
before me now the pride and hope
and admiration of their countrymen,
peerless, patriotic American Soldiers,
rs they move in compact column from
one strategic point to another in the
great battle arenas of the war, or as
they deployed in grim steadiness for
the deadly clash of arms with their
gallant antagonists.
The Southern armies were com posed
almost entirely of Americans. The
North was reinforced by enlistment
from Europe, but practically it was
American against American, and such
soldiers the world had never seen.
l shall always believe that, but for
the institution OF slavery, we should
have won. AS it was, we were fight
ing not only the vast and steadily in
creasing armies of the North, but also
the moral sentiment of the entire
civilized world. The two com mbined
we're too much for us. When the end
came both sides had higher respect
for the fighting qualities Of each..a
respect which the sneers and bigotry
of camp followers, and bomb proof
politicians can never eftace. I shall
never eat dirt, and say as some have
said, I am glad we were whipped, be-
cause it would not be the truth. But
we may all say, with sincerity and
without loss of self respect, we bow to
honorable defeat and abide ioyally by
our pledges when it came-more than
that, no generous antagonist will ask,
and more, the bawling "coffee cooler"

Minneapolis is to put on it's best
dress for the state fair week. Mic
ollet avenue is to be the center of
the efforts made to that respect.
Every evening during the week the
street will be brilliantly Illuminated,
the stores will shine with lights and
bright colors and everything will
look as if it was just fetched out of
fairy tale. For four nights extra
events have been prepared. Thus
on Tuesday night, Sept. 10, the fire
department of the city will give a
parade and exhibition along Nicol-
let avenue. The engines and the
whole apparatus of the department
will be gaily decorated, the brass
polished to the utmost clearness
and the boys dressed up in their best
uniforms
Wednesday night will be the night

parade and carnival is to take place
That it is to be held on Nicollet ave-
nue. need not be told. 1t is hoped
with good reason that about 5000
wheelmen and wheelwomen will be
in line. The wheels, as well as those
riding them, will be decorated AS
many as can possibly make such an
arrangement are to have Chinese
lanterns suspended over their wheels.
And most of the partakers on the
parade are to be dressed in fancy
costumes. The parade will move up
and down Nicollet avenue from
Tenth street TO Bridge Square, and
will also take in part Of the cross
streets. A number of bicycle clubs
will turn out in compact bodies.
Nicollet avenue will that night be
in a glare of light-lanterns, fire
works and whatever else can be
found to serve as a means of turn
ing night into bright day. The gov
ernor and his staff are likely to be
present as the guests of the Com
mercial club.
A review of the national guards of
the state Of Minnesota will be on
the programme for Thursday night
The boys brigade will also take a
part in the parade on that occasion.
On Friday night the turn will come
for the owners of common vehicles
with one or more horses in front of
them. A parade Of carriages many
miles long will be the event of the
evening.
