SoUTHSIDERS VICTORIOUS.

As advertised last week the
Northsiders accepted the chal-
lenge of the Southsiders with all its
conditions, and now they are sorry
that they spoke.
AT about 2:45 the great game COM
menced with the Southsiders at the
bat. But they failed to make run;
although one man got as far as third
base and there died. The North
siders then took the willow, and were
little more successful on the start
than their opponents, they bringing
in one man, which caused a little un-
easiness on the part of the South
siders.
Batting was not very heavy until
the first half of the seventh inning,
when the Southsiders fairly knocked
Mcdonald all around the diamond,
making IL runs. This caused the
Northsiders to wilt, and thinking
their only salvation was to put an
other pitcher in the box, Capt.
Brown called in Col. Matthews from
right field, to display his qualities as
a twirler. But, my, he was easy.
The Southsiders got tired running
bases. So in the ninth inning Capt.
Brown run in crack battery, w.
Hoare in the box, and +. Hoare be-
hind the bat. But too late, too late,
the game was won.
Cheer upon cheer went up from
the grand stand for the victory won
by Capt. Minors willow swingers.

The Northsiders are a lot of good
fellows, but they can't play ball.

Let Us Know, Not Guess.

The TRIBUNE appreciates the COM
plimtary words Of the Highland
miner, in course of his article in the
Press advocating an organization OF
miners and mine land owners with u
view to securing better prices for
ores. Our sympathies are with the
object of the proposed movement,
and any plan that promises its ac-
.complishment will have our active
support. Beyond question, the min
ers are not getting their just share Of
the products Of their labor, II popu-
lar estimates of the per cent. of metal
and oxide these ores yield are cor
rect. First, however, II must be in
disputably shown that there Is no er-
ror In the calculation. Suppose the
miners of Wisconsin begin by en-
ploying competent, reliable assayers,
to determine the per cent. of zinc,
or spelter, in their several piles of
bone or jack, before selling. From
that, allowing literally for expense
Of manufacture, and fuctuation Of
market, it could be at least approXi-
mately figured what the ore on the
dump should bring TO give fair profit
to the manufactures. Now it appears
the value of ore, SO far as the miner
Is concerned, is pure guesswork.

NUMBER 33.
Badger Picnic at Denver.

EDITOR or THE TRIBUNE:-Could
you and your readers Of Mineral Pt.
and vicinity have looked upon the
city park Of Denver, Colo, Thursday,
July 10Th, You might have seen there
a numerous assemblage of people,
formerly of Wisconsin, and mainly
of Mineral Point and Dodgeville.
The occasion was picnic gotten up
by residents of this city in honor
and for the enjoyment of old friends
aud acquaintances now visiting here.
The day was one of those sunny
ones for which Denver is celebrated;
and judging from the abundance of
good things displayed to tempt the
healthy appetite Of these attitudes,
the beauty of grass, and flowers, and
trees, and gentle graduation Of sur
roundings, the meeting and greeting
and renewal Of scenes and times
with which the name Of the badger
state Is associated, it was a day long
to be remembered by those present,
as an opportunity that too rarely
comes to them. II may be mentioned
incidentally, that Of the eighty or
more present the ladies were In the
majority throughout the day, owing
in part to the fact that some of the
gentlemen We're unable to leave their
Ia Ia.
when they also came, and almost all
repaired to another part OF the park
to listen, with thousands from the
city, 10 the band concert, which
lasted until 10 o'clock.
II is more than probable that this
IL not the last time that Wisconsin
people Will meet together here, but
that they will make the occasion an
annual one hereafter.

A New Business Enterprise.

The temporary dull times, light
crops, and low price Of ores, do not
shake the confidence of some of our
business men In the continued pros
perity of this city. Among the most
sanguine aud cnterprlsing Of this
class Is the firm of Brewer & Pen
hallegon. From the start their policy
has been To anticipate the demands
of the market, and prepare to meet
them. Their entry into business was
the Inauguration Of new era IN the
grocery trade here, and their success
Is evidence that the people approve
their methods. In line with this
spirit Of progress, they have recently
added to their establishment "A COM
plete bakery, and put Walter Cork,
an experienced baker, III charge.
Scrupulous cleanliness, and the use
of only the best and purest materials
in this new branch, will be strictly
the rule. People are urged 70 inspect
its ever part, and see for themselves,
at any time, just how this rule Is
maintained. Then the proprietors
have perfect confidence that no one
will hesitate to buy, and all will
relish the bread cakes, etc, that
come from their bakery.
The number Of applications for IN
formation concerning races at the
Mineral Point fair IL the greatest
ever known, indicating an unusual
string ofl horses to compete for the
purses offered. Entries for the races
clased last night, and next week we
hope to publish the Inst complete.
