McCROSSEN LAND CO.

The Mountain Lake View, in its issue
of June 18th, announces the organ
ization of real estate firm with head
quarters in that city. 1t is called the
"McCrossen Land Company" and two
of its members are known to our cit
liens and of them the paper above
mentioned says:
eve cannot refrain from saying a
word at this time about one of our real
estate firms. Chas. McCrossen, the
junior member of this firm, was a
Wisconsin boy and came here seven
years ago. For about years he man
aged large stock farm little ways
from the village. Then he began TO
buy and sell tracts of land as oppor-
tunities offered themselves TO him.
Dealing honestly and promptly with
the people, he soon found more work
than he could possibly accomplish.
Then he opened real estate office and
began business in earnest. A narrative
of his success would be as interesting
as a good novel, but he does not care
to speak aboutit Our readers viii see
what he has in store for them.
A few weeks ago the McCrossen Land
Co. was organized. Mr.. j A. Nc
Crossen, brother of Chas., is the SEN
Tor member of the organization. No
association could select better qualified
members. While Chas is made up Of
fibres every element of which has the
pushing nature in them, his elder
brother is of the conservative make up,
weighing every move or statement on
the balance of his reliable judgement.
A combination of two such characters
must necessarily draw business from
far and near and make it possible for
firm to accomplish an astonishing
amount of work.
The firm has thousands of acres of
the finest land in Minnesota for sale.
The many friends of DELI and Char
lie" McCrossen, in Wausau wish them
all kinds of success.

A SERIOUS CHARGE.

On Friday last, A. J. Packard, of the
town of Plover, appeared in Judge
Miller's court and swore out warrant
for the arrest of one, Albert James,
also resident of that town and neigh
Dor. charging him with having COM
mitted rape, Packard's daughter Lille
being the victim. Undersheriff Che.lis
went out and succeeded in finding the
man and bringing him in, and yester-
day he was brought before Judge
Miller, but upon motion of Dist. At
torney Fred Genrich, James hearing
was postponed until next Saturday
morning at ten O'Clock that time might
be allowed to bring in witnesses for the
prosecution.
The girl is but twelve years of age
and according to her story she left
home on the Sd of June for the purpose
of visiting married sister living some
distance from her home. When going
through a stripof woods through which
the road ran, she was met and accosted
by James, with whom she was not
acquainted She paid no attention to
him but he followed her and at GER
tain point seized her, and dragged her
to the roadside where he accomplished
his purpose. The girl, after being left
alone fled home and informed her
parents, but as James is late arrival
in that section she did not know his
name, and it was several days before
she was able to identify him. he one
day being picked out of crowd of men.
This delay together with bad roads,
was the reason that the matter was not
sooner reported.
James denies the girls story and
claims it is put up" job for the ex-
tortion of money, but as the man has no
money this story does not look reason
able. He came to that section from
New London and during his short resi-
dence there neighbors claim has acted
the part of bulley and they have all
feared him. He has boosted that he is
related to the once notorious outlaws,
Jesse and Frank James, and is a man
whose expression of countenance is
such as to not impress one very favora-
bly,. He has small farm on the banks
of the Plover river and has wife and a
daughter eleven years of age.
The Judge fixed his bail at $1,000,
which he was unable to furnish and de-
string an attorney to fight his case he
has had difficulty in securing one. If
the man is guilty of the charge, and the
preponderance of opinion deduced from
facts and medical examination of the
girl show he is, he should be given the
severest punishment provided for such
an offense by the law, as a lesson to
others for there have been several such
cases in this county within the past few
years If it is case of persecution on
the part of the Packards, as James
claims, and story made up of whole
cloth, there has certainly been an in
justice done him, which may be righted
in court.

BASE BALL.
STANDING or CLUBS.

Mausau won league game from
Appleton Sunday by a score of thirteen
to eleven. While the game was con-
spicuous for errors throughout yet it was
interesting. The most costly errors, or
what seemed to be to the fans in the
grand stand, were made by Papenfuss,
Wausau's third baseman He was round
ly scored for doing so. There were sew
eral disagreeable features of the game,
caused by jangling among players, and
at.on time it appeared as if blows
would be struck, the crowd rushing
into the diamond This was caused by
several exhibitions of dirty bali playing
on the part of the Appletonians The
score at the end of the game was as
follows:
Wausau. 80 0 0 12 4 #-13
Appleton. 10 4 2 0 Oh
Yesterday the same teams played an
exhibition game, the result of which
was reversed. Drew, Wausau's new
pitcher, pitched his first game for the
home teamr and though he pitched
strong ball, was poorly supported. Drew
bears the evidence of being strong all
around ball player and will prove him.
self strong acquisition to the Wausau
team, for he is a good hitter. Wausau
scored in only inning, the second,
though at times the chances looked
favorable of bringing in more runs
The score at the conclusion of the game
was as here given.

A SUCCESSFUL PICNIC.

A picnic given Sunday by the ID. O..
X. U. V. at Columbia Park, in com
moration of the organization of this
society thirty years ago, was a success,
so the members report, socially and
financially. The day brought forth
picnic weather and consequently the
turnout was large, it being estimated
that there were about twenty-five hun
dred people on the grounds, notwith-
standing other attractions in other
parts of the city. At 80 o'clock Cones
band, the above named society and the
Liederkranz and Eichenkranz formed
in line of march at Gersman's hall
and paraded to the park, During the
afternoon the singing societies fur
nished vocal music, Will the band gave
concert. Anton Mehl was the speaker
of the day and addressed those present,
in the German language, on the subject
of fraternaiism, the objects for which
the day was celebrated and the history
of the organization of the society, its
slow growth at an early day and of its
later development into a good. healthy
society The discourse was said to have
been interesting throughout. In the
evening the days festivitie wert c9n-

OAKLAND NORMAL SCHOOL.

The Interest in the Friday Afternoon Ses-
sions Unabated.
Each Friday in its turn has brought
to the Normal School a delightful
treat of some kind and last Friday
was not the least among its sisters.
Owing to press of business duties
Attorney E. H. Sincell could not make
a definite promise for the afternoon,
but finding he could spare us little
time, came, spoke, and was highly
appreciated.
The subject was The Application
of Principles to Study and was treat
ed in manner which was credit to
him who spoke and pleasure to those
listening. The principles underlying
each study and profession were en-
larged upon and some wonderful facts
concerning the workings of nature
were asserted. The difference between
discovering principle and using one
already formulated was so clearly de-
fined, that hereafter we shall revere
more sincerely the memory of those
men who have given so freely the re-
suits of their research and made the
door to the study of sciences of easy
access.
Hearty thanks are due Mr.. Sincell
for coming to us with hints and helps
needed and we hope all will use his
good suggestions. One of the teach
ers called particular attention to the
principles of Ethics and babe us take
note of Mr. Sincelrs remarks on this
subject and profit thereby.
Like all good, clear and concise
speeches, this was one that must be
heard to be fully appreciated, there
fore knowing justice cannot be done
the theme by longer writing the re-
port is closed. l..
