NOTES.

Quite an improvement was made in
the home team by placing Flanagan
on third and Gruebner at short.
The feature of Sundays game was
the brilliant fielding of Wolf in center,
he covering almost the entire field.
Tom Dobbins, who is playing
center field for Oshkosh, several
years ago wore a Wansau uniform,
and was considered a fast ball player.
1t can be seen that Tom hasn't lost any
of his old time speed even if he did
drop nice fly ball Sunday.
Sundays games in the league result
ed as follows:
Sheboygan 8, Milwaukee 0.
Green Bay 3, Kaukauna 2.
The Appleton team after leaving this
city went to Ashland for series of
three games. On the return trip that
team will stop off here for games
Wednesday and Thursday.

The Appletons played here Thursday
and Friday, both games being exhibit
ton contests. The Fox river boys
brought with them Olmsted, a Green
Bay twirler, and he pitched Thursdays
game for them. He is a young high
school pitcher, but proved to be the
toughest proposition our boys have
bumped up against so far this season.
The hits on Wausau's side were few
and far between, and seventeen of the
locals struck out. Coupled with the
scarcity of hits there was combination
of errors and misplays, the worst ever
seen on ball field. There were fully
1900 people in attendance, and the eX-
hibition of ball playing put up by the
locals Disguised them, and before the
farce ended the 1000 had dwindled
down to about Is. When an end came
to the comedy of errors and the score
had been counted it was found that Ap-
pleton had Is runs to Wausau's ?.
The following day the Wausau team
pulled itself together and defeated APP
pleton by score of 16 to II. Currie
pitched for Appleton and our boys lit
onto his curves with vengeance. A
home-run, three and two baggerS and
singles were made off his delivery that
Melted runs for the home team.
Sunday the Oshkosh team made its
first appearance on the home grounds
this season, and sustained its reputation
of being losing team. The boys were
greeted by a very small crowd, many
staying away on account of being dis
gusted with the home team, many on
account of Oshkosh's record as q ball
team and some on account of the eX
cursions. The exhibition, while fairly
good at times, was not up to the stand
ard of good ball playing. Wausau
started in to slug the ball in the first
inning and with the errors of the OPP
posing team the runs piled up until
fourteen was the number credited to
our boys while Oshkosh made seven
scores. Hassman, by sliding to second,
corked the Oshkosh shortstop early in
the game, cutting large cash in his
foot. This delayed proceedings for
time but the fellow was able to play
the game out

A STUDY ~ MALARIA.

The theory that malaria is caused by mos
quitoes is supported in an impressive manner
by the experience of Henry W. Woodley, po-
lieeman assigned to the Staten Island precinct,
who was under examination yesterday before
Deputy Commissioner Devery. There has been
another hypothesis as TO the nature Of Wood
ley's disorder. but he entertains no doubt about
the matter himself. and il it We're necessary he
could probably procure expert medical testi-
mony TO sustain the accuracy Of his diagnosis.
His attack assumed an aggravated form on
June %, when the Sunday schools of Staten ISL
and following a melancholy tradition engaged
in pathetic endeavor to have fun at picnic.
At that time of year the Staten Island mosquito.
though not in the prime of his mature powers,
has become aware of his vocation and entered
upon his pursuit with generous ardor Woodley,
who presents an unusually large surface to at
tack had unquestionably been often and thor
oughy bitten. and therefore if the scientists are
right he must have been full of malaria. That
would have been the conclusion of advanced
members of the faculty prior to the 22d of June,
il the circumstances had been brought TO their
attention. while the actual occurrences OF that
day amount TO a demonstration.
The fact that Woodley had malaria and that
it was of a formidable type. attracted notice PIT
a comparatively early hour, when he betrayed
strong desire TO join some of the most interest
ing young women of the Sunday schools in the
pastime of swinging. They began TO shake at
once which shows the extreme virulence of :he
disease from which Woodley suffering. He
himself was in such state as TO he utterly
able 10 control the movements of his arms and
legs. the consequence being that he knocked Gn
amiabe and exemplary young man under
horse and chased him thence into wheat field.
He there arrested the young man, and was in
tending to incarcerate him, but, finding great
difficulty in keeping hold Of him, he subse-
quently advised him to lose himself. At this
point there is hiatus in the record, but it Is
evident that Woodley's case was becoming Hore
serious all the time, for a few hours later he
held up of the picnic stages with the aid Of
a pistol, ordered the aforesaid young man. who
had been fiattering himself that he effectu-
ally lost, to dsmount, handcuffed him. marched
him TO the nearest railroad station and fell
sound asleep. After the lapse of thirty minutes
the young mans father woke him up and pre-
vailed upon him TO release his prisoner, tired
natures sweet restorer having IN that brief in
terval temporarily got the upper hand.
Interesting researches into the origin and ef-
fects of malaria have recently been prosecuted
In various parts of this country, in Cuba and in
