Football.

The Sacred Heart college eleven
met St. Johns academy team at
Delafield Saturday and were defeated
by a score Of II to 10. Each eleven
scored two touchdowns, but the soldier
boys were more fortunate than the
visitors, in that they possessed a
player capable of kicking goal, Sacred
Heart failing in this branch of the
play both times. Meagher, the regu-
lar full-back, was not in the game.
and the team was thus materially
weakened by the loss of its star kicker.
Sacred Heart averaged about ten
pounds, heavier to the man than St.
Johns, but what the latter lacked in
weight they more than made up in
fast team work, their formations for
end plays being splendid and counting
for decided gains every time. Owing
to their heavy weight the visitors
were able to plow through the center
almost at will and most of their gains
we're made in this way. A feature of
the game was run OF fifty yards for
a touchdown by De Diemar, of the
Sacred Hearts. Following was the

BEET SUGAR AGA IN.
The question of Starting q Factory
Here is Revived


The question of establishing the
beet sugar industry in this city is be-
ing revived by the presence here of
Fred Burnsterman, of Boston, gentle
man representing All Eastern syndi-
cate which is looking for suitable
location for the institution of a beet
sugar factory. Mr.. Burnsterman has
visited number of places in Indiana,
Iowa and Wisconsin, and will soon
submit to the syndicate alreport of his
observations. Some of the important
features which the agent is required
to look up are whether suitable site
with proper drainage can be secured;
the quality and quantity of the avail
able acreage, it being estimated that
about 5000 acres would be needed;
suitable limestone in large quantities;
the cost of coal; the availability of
labor, etc. Mr.. Burusterman states
that If he hits upon a favorable loca-
tlon, the syndicate stands ready to
furnish the funds with which to build
aud operate the plant. The condi-
tlons here are thought to meet the
requirements in every instance, and
1t is not without reason to suppose
that Watertown has chance of being
l recommended as the most desirable
location.

serves to be the next sheriff of Jeffer-
son county. Partisan politics injected
in party affairs, especially in such
Offices as sheriff and superintendent
of schools. results Invariably in poor
administration and improper and ex-

lily increasing trade. Mr.. Gosa's
neighbors believe in his integrity,
have made him trustee of his village,
sought eagerly and successfully for
his nomination for sheriff, and will
give him a home endorsement that
will be hard to offset.
Martin Gosa was born in the town
of Eagle, February 12. 1868. He is
the youngest son of Frederick and
Elizabeth Gosa (now deceased), ma
