sin. Many Delegates Expect
ed to Attend

The Eleventh Annual Convention,
and the celebration of the Thirty
first Anniversary of the A. O. TT.
W. will be held in this city next
Tuesday and Wednesday, and the
local lodge is making extensive prep
aration for the entertainment Of
the brethren who will visit here. Tt
was the purpose of the Associa-
ton to arrange for popular excur-
sion from points down the line, but
this had to be aban doned on account
OF the failure to make suitable ar
rangements with the railroads.
However there will be a large and re-
preventative gathering and they will
undoubtedly be given a hospitable
reception. The local committee of
arrangements is made up of D. W.
Corning, VIM. Goedeke, Fred Terrill
John Hanson and Fred L. Rothge-
Der. Hon. J. NJ. Thayer, grand
Master Workmen of Wisconsin, is
expected to be present, and other
distinguished members Of the order
will likely be here. The officers of
the Association are: President: Hon.
James H. G. McRae, of Chippewa
Falls; Secretary, f. L. Rotheeber,
Washburn and Treasurer: NJ. J.
Argard. of Eau Claire.
An elaborate programme Of enter
tainment is being laid out, and the
sessions promise unusual interest to
the members OF the order. Among
the amusements will be a game of
base ball between Washburn and
some other good team.

A GREAT TIME TO BE HAD
Ashland is "Bucking" as Usual, but the
Celebration Here Will be the Great
est of it's Kind in the History
of Chequamegon Bay.

Labor day September 3rd. will be
celebrated in Washburn this year.
The celebration is in charge of the
Mill Mems Union, and the other
Unions of the city will lend their
assistance. The matter has been
under way some time, and the local
unions have been in conference with
the unions of Ashland, Bayfield, and
other points. All except Ashland
have agreed to come here. When
the celebration of Labor day was
first instituted there was an under
standing between Washburn, Bay
field and Ashland that the celebra-
tions should alternate between the
three cities. Bayfield, and Wash
burn have steadily maintained their
part of the contract, and now this
year-it being Washburns time for
the celebration, the Ashland unions
tail to keep their part OF the agree
ment; and instead of coming here
they will celebrate independently by
themselves. However this bad faith
on the part of the Ashland people
will in no ways deter the Washburn
people, and their celebration will be
made the biggest and best that has
ever been held on the bay Com
fnittees have already been named
and things are under way for a cele-
bration on large scale. A consid-
cradle amount OF money was left
over from the Fourth OF July fund
which will be turned over to the
Labor day committee.
The full program of the days ex-
.ercises and events will be announced
40 few days. Bayfield,, Port Wing
and the towns down the Omaha will
Join in its celebration. The mill
mems union are to have a special
meeting on "Wednesday evening of
next week to arrange for the parade
and other features of the day.
The Congregational people made a
trip to Madeline island today for the
purpose of having picnic. The
weather hes been very unfavorable.
Jack Smith picked up flag staff
and flag evidently off some yacht:
down by the pump house this morn
ing. That's all he found. What a
chance for yellow journalism" to
speculate on the loss of yacht with
all hands on board, and only the flag
and staff drifted ashore. Whew!
but couldn't the Chicago American
make a sensation out of such an
event.

PLAYED TWO GAMES.
Washburn BAH Team Spends Two DAYS at
Head of Lakes

Head or Lakes.
Washburn was beaten by the new
Interstate team at Duluth Saturday
oy score of II to 4. The Superior
Leader said, in part, of the game:
The new Interstate team defeated
the great Washburn team at Duluth
yesterday by a score of II to 4.
Red Thiery, a former Superior
tie, was on the rubber for Wash
burn, and had very poor control,
giving seven men bases on balls,
hitting four and having four wild
pitches.
Red s" work was good Sin spots !"
and when he did locate the plate the
locals could not hit him hard.
He had "Big Louie" Kline on his
string, striking him out three times
He was badly used by one York,
who essayed to umpire. York was
VIGOROUSLY unfair, Thiery being
compelled to "split'' the plate, and
he played in luck if the umpire
would give it to him then. His
work on the bases was also bad.
Keefe threw out Portor and Glennv
by five feet, but York called them
safe. These two decisions alone
were responsible for five runs.
While the base ball public likes to
see the home team win, fair patrons
of the game also like to see them
win honestly. York's decision in
calling Lee safe IN the sixth, when
Marty cut third base thirty feet,
brought such a loud protest from
the visitors that Chapman was sub
stituted.
Although the score was largely in
favor Of Superior Duluth, it was
very plain that Washburn has a
good ball team aud viii keep the

This has been a hot season on
Chequamegon baylor doesn t
always apply necessarily to the con-
dition of the weather, but if it did
the fore going statement would be
unquestionably correct; for be it
known to the outside world that the
thermometer has been chasing way
up toward the top notch, and the
''oldest inhabitant" fail to recall
such prolonged spell of desperately
hot weather.
But it was not the original inten-
ton OF the writer to say anything
about the weather-that was simply
thrown in on the side 1t is under
stood in this neck of the woods that
when generalities are INDUCED in
that the real subject meant to be
alluded to is the great American
game of base ball And when any
thing is spoken of as hot the inward
meaning Of the statement alludes to
base bail.
1t all came about in this way.
For two or three years Washburn,
Ashland aud Bayfield, have been
playing an occasional game of base
ball with one another And in these
games. Bayfield, won most of the
Games. Washburn had second place
md Ashland came along in the rear.
Late last season the three teams
began dreaming on the neighboring
towns whenever there was a game
but the order of supremacy remained
practically unchanged when cold
weather set in.
The enthusiasts went quitely to
work this spring, and when the
teams from the three cities came
together it was found that each had
been importing ball players. Things
got hot-red hot, and finally it came
to condition where all the teams
were made up principally of outside
players. Washburn has seven out
side players, Ashland is about in
the same condition while Bayfield,
has number. Washburn now has
the best showing, Bayfield, comes
second, and Ashland is playing good
ball in the third place. Outside
teams, such as Hayward, Rice Lake
Superior and Duluth have crossed
bats with the Chequamegon base
ball boys, but our "bay fellows"
always give good account of them
selves. Washburn has the hottest
and best team Of them all.
But this hot base ball season was
no doubt brought all about in order
to conquer the hot base ballists of
Bayfield, and Washburn is on top,
But the fact that base ball is being
brought down to the fine point does
not increase the good order of the
games. The rooters " and enthus;-
asts are hot boys but seem to forget
that it does not pay to be anything
but gentlemen at all times.
There is too much boisterons noise
ana i'll feeling at many of these
games, and the chances are that
base ball interests will rapidly
diminish unless there is an improve
ment along this line,
