and % minutes. Umpire: q. X. Ad-
ans. Scorer: W. NJ. Blackley.
NOTES.
Holt made the prettiest plays of the
day. His two running catches were
phenoms.
The small boys who mark up the
runs and goose eggs are bit previous
in the way they anticipate.
The umpiring of Adams was very
good. The only question raised was on
the decision in the first half of the
tenth inning.
Nigel jackson was added to the list
of Star catchers. He did not make
quite as much noise as was expected.
The fielding in Saturdays game was
good all around. McNichol was bit
slow in two very good chances, and
Hansman had an off day. Two flies
fell right in his hands and he dropped
them like hot potatoes.
The ball did not go off the field for
three innings, rather an unusual occur
renee. particularly since Thompson
was at the bat during that time.
Excellent order was kept in the
grand stand and less of the disagree
able features took place than upon any
previous occasion of the kind. The as
sociation did well to station Captain
Bowers at the place during the prog
ress of the games.
The enthusiasm on the part OF the
audience Immediately above the report
ers' box was not appreciated below.
There was perfect shower of dirt dur
ing the exciting parts of the game.
Thompson's protest was sent in Sun
day morning, and it is likely that the
meeting for the consideration of the
same will come off on Tuesday at noon.

BADGER STATE FuRs.
Some Of tho Varieties Of peIts Secured by
Trappers In Wisconsin.

LA-n'N"Ah SO
American trappers said that the gray
wolves of upper Wisconsin were the lar
Rest in che United States. They drove the
deer u good deal. A pack Of seven wolves
had twice crossed their lines that winter,
and they had poison out for them. Wolves
swept across "a great deal of country-8O,
40, so miles or more-aud did not ROMAN
local, The lynx also trayylcd a great deal.
A lynx usually came around again in
about seven days, and tho wolves once in
two or three weeks, though not SO regu-
larry as the lynx. The otter also Travelled
"a great deal, but was irregular. 1t would
sometimes leave the water courses and
travel miles across dry divides to entirely
new country. The best place to trap mar
tens was along the high ridges between
waterways, and that was Best also for
fishers. They often caught fishers, but
never a wolverine,
American trappers rated the fox the
hardest animal to trap, the wolf next, and
the otter tAlrd. To catch % fox they often
made a bed OF chafi and got him to lying
in it or boiling around it, the trap being
set under the ohaff. Or a trap was set at
a place whore several foxes seemed to stop
for a certain purpose. Or a fox could be
caught sometimes by putting a bait a lit
NAA NhN 0AtN III NAN NtlNI anu tINh DhNAAhE
a pad of moss between the bait and the
shore, with the trap hid under the moss.
The fox, not liking to wet his feet, would
step on the moss.
For wolves the usual way was TO put
out poison (~strychnine). Often they would
not touch the poisoned meat. For offers it
was necessary to use great care, not leaving
chips or litter around. Our trappers
usually caught them either on a slide OF
at a place where they came out of the
water, not where they went in, as the otter
slides with his feet doubled under and
would be apt to spring the trap with his
body. 1t was a good way to drop a stick
or limb on the side of the slide, cutting it
down and letting it fall naturally, SO that
the otter could not escape the trap so cas-.
ly. The trap should never be set in the
mid ]o of the slide, but at one side, as the
otter's feet are so wide apart and he would
not be caught should he spring the trap
with his body.
For offers and beavers, if they were trap
ped near deep water, "a sliding pole was
usually used, arranged with the small end
stuck down into the deep water. The ami
NAL when trapped plungos into the water,
and the ring-5f the trap chain slips down
along the pole. The littlo stubs Of the
triIbmed off boughs prevent the ring from
slipping back up again and the animal is
drowned. An otter should not be left in
the{wator over nine days or the fur viii
slip. A few days make no difference. All
traDs should be visited about once in six
or eight days.-EOrest and Stream.

Hard Times Increased the sale Of Diamond
Dyes-Black for Cotton, Wool n Silk
That Does Not Crock Makes old cloaks,

1T is really marvellous" said Main
