| The locals went to Arbor Vitae last
Tuesday morning, where. in the after
noon, they played with the team of that
town. The game, according to the
score, was a good one and resulted in a
victory for Arbor Vitae, which does
not speak we'll for the locals. The
team of the saw dust town was made
up of lumber jacks, shingle weavers,
carriage riders, planning mill men and
one farmer The attendance was 800,
and so confident were the villagers of
winning that one man beJ his house
and contents against Sl5 Following

I After playing at Arbor Vitae the team
went to Ashland where the boys were
scheduled to play two games, but rain
interfered until Friday when one game
was played, Ashland is a hot base ball
! town and its team has defeated every
thing in the northern section this sea-
son. When the game was called a
large crowd was in attendance and the
people were given good exhibition of
ball playing. The Wausaus lost the
game by score of 5 to 3. They were
not beaten fairly, as was admitted by
the Ashland people, but then what mat
tiers. At any rate they did not get the
deal that they got at Arbor Vitae,
where the umpire, compared with hon
est men, would have been classed with
the Jesse James stripe of hold-up men.
The Ashland people were pleased with
the showing of the Wausau boys and it
is their desire that arrangements be
made for series of games to take
place between the teams in the near
future. Struck pitched a gilt edged
game for Wausau, allowing but four
hits. Flanagan also played star game

From Ashland the boys went direct |
to Oshkosh for the regular scheduled |
Sundays league game. This was the
first meeting of these two clubs this |
year and was an easy thing for Wau-
sau, the boys winning by a score of
6 to 2. Corcoran done the twirling for |
Wausau and pitched good game. The
attendance was small. Following is |

Sunday Appleton defeated Sheboy-
gan II to A, and the Kaukauna-Green |
Bay game broke up in a row after in
nings had been played with the score 4 |
to A. The umpire gave the game to
Kaukauna to 0.
The Marshfield team was last week |
dropped from the league. This action
on the part of President Farley was the |
result of q number of Objectionable |
features of that team that could not be |
bridged. In fact the president states
that this team has been held in the |
league against the protest of other clubs. |
One objection was that the Marshfield |
grounds are not properly fenced, thus
allowing crowds to go in to witness
games free of admission fee, and visit |
ing clubs have made barely above ex-
penses. Sheboygan and Green Bay
joined the league with the understand
ing that they would not have to play
Wausau and Marshfieldnon account of
the long jump. Later this objection
was withdrawn so far as Wausau was
concerned, which caused another sore
spot among the "beefers'' over on the
line. But the elimination was reached
last week when Sheboygan offered
Marshfield $50 guarantee, and Marsh
field demanded 800. The difficulty
was finally smoothed by Farley offer
ing $50 for a game at Appleton on their
return. This was agreed to but later
broken by Marshfeld asking for 800. |
Then came the limit of Farley's patience
and he ousted Marshfeld from the |
league, bag and baggage. The season |
will probably be finished with seven
clubs.
Appleton plays mere next Thursday |
and Friday and, no doubt, will draw
out large attendance. One will be an |
exhibition game while the other will |
count in the pennant race.
Kid" Fears hand is again all right, |
and he has got back into the game.
Outside of Appleton, Wausau is the
best drawing team in the league.
