ONE AWFUL INNING.
Gave Syracuse Eight Runs. the Number
That Won the Gane..-MasOn
Did GOoi Work.

In one disastrous and fatal inning
yesterday the Syracuse Stars made
their only runs, but the number was
large enough to defeat Scranton 8 to g.
Mason, the Syracuse pitcher, was at his
best and gave Scranton's hitters no OPP
portunity to overcome the eight runs
made by the Stars in the second inning
Two costly errors on easy chances by
Mcguire. another by O'Brien. mis-
understanding of Signals between
Meaney and Ward and five hits for
seven bases was what did the
~ business. After that, for six in
\ \ nings Brow was hit semi-occa-
- sionally, but the Stars were never
u able to bunch their drives suf-
~ ficient to score runner.
From the call of play Mason
~ pitched for Syracuse the kind of
good. steady ball that wins games and
he was superbly supported, barring
Minahan's error, which did not cost
anything.
BOWERMAN WILL DO.
Eowerman caught his first game here
and showed himself worthy of the
pidlse"ti my tHlNSS Sdlu dpOut MIN III
Baltimore and other cities. His throw
ing to bases was revelation. and it is
doubtful If this feature Of his playing
is eXcelled by any other catcher in the
league. Certainly that was indicated
by his cne appearance. He appears to
be strong on high flies and has an easy
swing at bat. The only criticism that
can be made Of him Is on his proneness
to move about behind the plate, thus
giving an umpire an excuse for mis-
judgment on balls and strikes. That
fault. however is trivial. is peculiar to
all young catehers and can soon be
overcome.
Scranton in the second inning got the
first run of the game on O'Brien's sim
Gle Hutchnson's sacrifice. Pete
Easan's out at first and Bowerman's
single.
THEN THE SLAUGHTER.
In the last half of the second came

The Upper Mississippi.

minneapolis Lumberman: There
will probably he some variation
from tho figures as published In lust
weeks issue of The Zimmerman, and
1t IL possible that there will be some
thing of an increase found when the
final reports are IN. but the total cut
ON the upper Mississippi will he con-
siderably less than a fifty per cent
reduction.
The Nelson. Tenney Lumber cOIl-
pany has decided t. cut little for
themselves. Under the supervision
OF II. b. Frey, the company will put
in about 4,OO0, 900 feet for their own
mill. These logs will come fr0nl
along the Pine river and the Swan
river. They will also cut about
1900, 900 for the ROvey-DeLaittre
Lumber company. which will swell
the cut Of that company to about
5000 900 feet.
The cut Of the Shevlin- Carpenter
company, given last week as 15.OOO,-
600 feet covers part Of the cut, OF the
POwer-SimpsOn company, which
will do some logging for the Mime
apOlis concern. There may be an in
crease In the amount to be put in by
the Swan River Logging company.
but on the whole the estimate as
made last week is "a accurate as an
estinlut" can be made at this time Of
the year.
The conditions for logging have
Materially improved. There has been
warm weather to remove some OF
the snow that was keeping the
swalnps from freezing, and there has
been cold weather to freeze them
Logging roads can now be made
that will bear up the loads that they
will be called upon to support, and
the swamps will admit of heavier
londs being hauled over them. The
small lakes are frozen up solid, and
the larger ones are firm enough to
carry the heavy loads of logs.

The house is not large enough to
suit the tastes of Mrs. Green, anu
she has refused, it is claimed, to live
in it. Frank occupies the house and
she lives at the hotel. This cOndi

C. Is. Buchanan returned last night
from Minneapolis. He was accom-

Messrs. Webster and Rudd are rep
resentatives of the firm of Foley

man today to his logging camps ON
Skunk brook. They will look over
the prospects in that locality for
getting out a lsrge amount of oak
lumber this year, which, If the con-
tract is closed. will be sawed at
Buckman's mill and hauled by team
to this placed. Mr.. Buchanan says
he now has about 5000 feet of oak
logs at his mill, and II oak timber ia
found in sufficient quantities to fiIl
the contract, the mill will be started
up at once end will run night and
day for the greater portion uf the
winter. 1t is long haul, for the
mill is about twelve miles hey ond
the village of Pierz. Teams will be
put to work in numbers sufficient to
haul away the lumber as fast as it
is sawed. 1t is to be hoped that the
contract will be closed, for it will
give employment to a large number
of men.

Ball nor any of the gentlemen with
him would say anything in regard

built at the northern limits of the
city, then at the southern extremity,
and now on the West side, and still
the streets are not vacated. The

: c. Cheeley, Of Morrill,, was a caller
Monday. He reports that 100 deer
were killed In that town this fall. the
largest number ever killed in any one
season. Mr.. Cheeley says deer are
still very plentiful out there.
A band of Indians from the Mile
'Lacs country hunted deer In Morrill,
this season, and killed 1Sin one week.
Their method of hunting is to station
themselves on stu mps here and there
woods, and send Il
pack Of hounds in to drive the game.
In this way the deer are brought
within range and easily killed. The
settlers die not approve Of this
method and killed five of their dogs.
The dam of the Abelin & Jesok
Milling company on Skunk brook
went out last week. Muskrats are
numerous in that locality and 1t il
generally believed that these little
animals dug holes through the earth
work, thus weakening the dam, and
are responsible for it's giving away.
A crew of men are at work repairing
the damage.
., T.. r. McDOugall, who ia engineer
for the Two Rivers Milling company,
reports that his engine room was
broken into one night recently while
he was away, and an attempt made
by someone TO let the water out Of
the boiler. Mr.. McDOueall says he
does not know that he or the com
pany have an enemy in the neighhor-
hood and he is puzzled to know who
would attempt such mean trick,
and why. Fortunately they did not
succeed, though in the attempt they
broke and rendered useless valve
several dollars.
A couple of enterprising and clever
safe blowers visited Senator Geissel's
store at North Prairie one night last

money the safe contained t the time.

and large quantity of stamps, but
the burglars in their hurry over
looked it. The senator. who lives n
short distance from the store, heard
the explosion and got up. but went
back to bed again, as he concluded
the noise he heard was the cracking
of the frost. Had the burglars been
q day earlier they might have made
a good haul, as the safe contained
several hundred dollars the night be-
fore, but it was deposited in the
bank here the day before the bur-
glary. The loss to Mr.. Geissel il u
