A MODEL INSTITUTION.

The Wausau Business College and
Academy is now installed in its new
quarters in the structure recently erect
ed by n. Heinemann on Third street,
and the founder and owner, Prof. g. M.
Boyles, now has as fine a location for
his institution as that of any in the
state. The rooms are commodious,
airy, with plenty of light, and though
in the heart of the city there is little
noise to annoy those whose desire it is
to secure that which uplifts man and
makes him a better Ottoman educa-
ton
The study rooms are fitted up with
numerous desks and there are chairs
for a great number of students placed
so that there is not that air of crowded
ness so often seen in schools of this
character. In connection with the
study rooms there is a recitation room,
and also a room for stenOgraphy in
which are six typewriters with several
more to be added shortly. There is a
well stocked library for the edifcation
of the students that is within their reach
at any time In addition to the present
equipment, Mr.. Boyles will add new
furniture in few weeks which will add
to the appearance of the rooms.
MIR Boyles now has about thirty stu
dents enrolled and as soon as the hot
months are over students will begin to
enter the school in great numbers.
This institution was founded sixteen
years ago and has grown steadily in
popularity and favor since, and Mr.
Boyles can point with pride to numer-
Gus graduates of his school that are now
scattered over the country holding re-
sponsible positions secured only through
their education and ability made more
perfect by their course of study and
business training at the Business Col
lege. We predict for Mr.. Boyles and
his school a rosy future.

cts. The interior of the building is to
be of quartersawed oak, with heavy
paneled wainscoting FIVE feet high.
The wall and ceilings will be plastered
with rock cement and tastefully painted.
There will be hardwood floors through
out and the platforms will be paved
with fire brick, the walks leading up to
the station being of selected gravel.
This is TO be the handsomest station
building in northern Wisconsin, and it
will take the place of the old structure
that was erected when the road first
opened the old lumber line known then
as the Wisconsin Valley railroad. The
old building was half residence, half
station, as the country was then so
thinly settled that the roads had to pro-
vide a residence for the agent. The
residence portion has long since been
turned over to business uses.-Milwau-
kee Journal.

Wausau defeated Appleton in two eX-
hibition games Wednesday and Thurs
day, the first game, which was the
worst ever played on a Wausau dia-
mond, was won by the locals 20 to 49,
Thursdays game was the best rseen on
the home grounds this season and was
decided in the locals favor by a score
of to 4.
The team left Saturday noon for
Green Bay, where the boys were sched-
uled to play two league games Sunday
and Monday. On Sunday the two
teams played the hottest game of base
ball that has been played in the state
so far this season. Olmsted, who stood
up and moved the Wausau batsmen
down on Woodman day when he played
here with Appleton, striking out seven
teen men, was pitted against Wausau,
while Corcoran did the pitching act for
our boys. The attendance was large,
and all received their moneys worth,
for both sides battled for nine innings
before a score came when finally in the
tenth Green Bay forced man across
the plate and won the game. Olmsted
struck out thirteen men and but four
hits were secured off him, while Corcor-
and struck out eleven and allowed but
five hits The boys played gingerly
ball all through the game, and few er-
rors were made. The game has been
protested, however, for some reason,
and will be played over on neutral
ground, probably at Appleton.
On Monday another game was played
with a close score, this time resulting
in Wausau's favor 4 to 2. Pitcher
Foulkes, of the Milwaukee Sentinel
team, done the twirling for Wausau.
The game abounded with brilliant field
ing on the part of our team.
Today the club is playing an exhibit
ton game at Appleton. The boys will
rest one day and then go to Ashland,
Washburn and Bayfield, where series
of five games are to be played. The
team will be accompanied by three
pitchers and good games are looked for.
There will be no league games on the
home grounds until Aug, 23d, when
Green Bay plays here and that team
will no doubt be drawing card.
Other games in the league Sunday re-
suited: i.
Sheboygan 10, Oshkosh -.
Appleton 8, Kaukauna 5.

Kaukauna, Sunday, a schedule for

DET WET AND STEYN ESCAPE.
Former Reported to Have Lost
Heavily In Cape Colony.

LONDON, March 4.-Gen. De Wet lost
heavily in men and stores by his incurslon
into Cape Colony, but he seems to have
made a clever escape with the bulk Of his
commando. Apparently Commandant Hert-
Zog crossed the Orange river with him.
Gen. Bruce Hamilton. who was pursuing,
heard that Gen. De Wet was surrounded at
Philipstown. northwest of Colesberg. On
arriving there he found the Beers had not
back, and were struggling across the river
at Colesberg. Apparently this is another
instance Of defective intelligence regarding
the doings of the Beers.
The Daily Telegraph has dispatch from
Colesberg, dated yesterday, which says
Our numerous columns are still hunting
for De Wet. This place Is in q hubbub, and
troops marching off in various direc-
uons to press the pursuit further"
A dispatch from Colesberg, Cape Colony
dated Friday. March l, says:
Fifteen hundred Beers, with whom, it Is
alleged. were Gen. De Wet and former
President Steyn. found spot in Luliefon-
tein, near Colesberg bridge where the
Orange river widens and the current is
slow, and they all crossed yesterday, both
men and horses, by swimming.
A dispatch from Cape Town. dated March
3. says:
The bubonic plague Is spreading here.
Five corpses, all Of colored persons, have
been found since yesterday morning. Ten
colored persons and one European woman
been removed to the hospital
Numerous persons who had come into
contact with the suspected cases have
been Isolated.
