MARATHON LEADS.

During the nine months Guiding June
30 the state of Wisconsin paid 1920, 595
to counties for the care of the chronic
insane This was announced IN the re-
port of the state hoard Of control Sat
urday as part o. the forthcoming re-.
port of the end of the fiscal year The
report covers a period of nine months
rather than year, because the time OF
ending the fiscal year was changed from
Sept. 30 to June 30, consequently com
parison with the previous year is i'm
practicable.
Twenty-eight counties of Wisconsin
now have chronic insane asyIums OF
their own, and each one receives
patients belonging to other counties
OF the money apportioned Marathon
county received the most, sl74S0. 90.
The county to receive the least was
Eau Claire, sJ,G4s.99.
Counties maintaining insane asylums
Of their own receive from the state 81 80
week Ion each patient belonging 10
that county, that is. each patient whose
home or legal residence is in tbst coun-
ty. The counties that have no asylum OF
their own take their patients to other
county asyiums and pay those counties
81. - q week for the care and mainten-
apce Of each patient: the state pays
another 40 week. 50 a county car
ing for patients not its own receives
sa a week for each patient.

OFF TO ASHLAND.

The local lodge of NJ w. A. having
failed to secure the railroad rates to
Ashland that was expected consequently
did not send as many members to the
annual picnic 10 be held in that city as
was hoped. The drill team is composed
of eighteen members as follows: f. R.
Mccullough, chief Forester; r. O.
Kumerow, Asst. chief Forester; A.
Clark, E. Weiland, c. Kiesner, A. Peter
son, B. johnson, j. Van Adestine, M.
Van Adestine, NJ Wescott, +. Burk, j..
Ford, A. Klutchie, T. Barden, F. Klut
chic, j. Barden, E. Dressed and j. Allen,
departed this morning for the picnic
They were accompanied by number
of other members, in all enough to
make fairly respectable showing.
Had the railroads given the members
the rates they expected it is quite prob
able that at least two-thirds of the lodges
together with their families, would have
months been practicing hard and went
to the picnic with the set purpose of
carrying away the large cash prize that
has been offered for the winning team
in the drill contest, and had Charley
Wegner made up his mind to take his
tug of war team to the northern city it
is quite likely that his combination of
muscle would have won as it did at the
picnic held here a year ago.

IN The LEAD.

Our service is not perfect nor do we
ever expect it will be; but we are striv-
ing with that end in view. We are
making it better in many ways. There
is continual demand for many things
we do not carry in stock for want of
space and we have been giving this
matter our careful attention. We are
associated with the largest wholesale
house in the world and are doing quite
creditable business with them. We
find on making comparisons that we
can compete with any retail house in
the country on nearly everything they
handle. On many things we undersell
them. Today we are in position to sell
you almost anything in the line of gen.
eral merchandise as cheap as it can be
bought elsewhere. A distinct advan-
tage you have in dealing with us is, that
the article you buy may be examined
before paying for it; that the price we
make you is the lowest in Wausau to-
day; if the article you buy is not as rep.
resented you need not take it. Max E..
Boehm, 254 Grand Ave-, Tel. 31S,

HELD EOR MURDER.

Mike Scanlon, a we'll known charac-
ter of Menasha, where he is known by
the cCgnomen as "Mickie" Scanlon,
was arrested last week by detective in
the employ of the Northwestern rail-
road company, and taken to Rhine
lander on suspicion of being the man
who killed conductor Young three
weeks ago. Scanlon had his prelimin-
airy examination on Saturday and he
pleaded mot guilty to the charge, and
expressed much surprise at his arrest.
There was, however, such an amount of
discriminating evidence offered against
him that he was held for trial, but he
declares that when that time comes he
will easily prove an alibi. Scanlon
answers the description perfectly of
the man who fired the fatal shots, and
he Is said to have informed friend
that be was on the train ON which the
conductor was killed.

BASE BALL.

Wausau defeated Green Bay Sunday
in the best played game on the Green
Bay grounds this year 1t is perhaps
the best fielding game that has been
played in the state league this year,
for there were thirty two put outs cred
tied to the fielders. 1t was What might
be turned pitchers battle with the
Wausau pitcher getting shade the
better of it. Green Bay got but two hits
while Wausau secured FIVE, three of
them being made by Failon
By this game pitcher Foulkes made a
record for himself, which, in addition
to the Manitowoc game, made eighteen
innings he has pitched without run
being scored by the opposing players.
The final score of the game was to 0,
in Wausau's favor.
Yesterday the same teams played
another game, and though this also
was an excellent game it resulted diff
ferently. The Wausau teams players
were changed around somewhat and
the shift it is said contributed to their
defeat, the score being to 2, in Green
Bays favor. Green Bays score should
have been cut down to two, for Foulkes
and Fear allowed easy fys to go over
their heads which resulted in the bring
ing in of three runs
An unusually large crowd is expected
out Sunday when Kaukauna plays here.
At present Kaukauna leads the league,
if such an organization can be said to
exist, and that team win give the home
players the battle of their life, but in
the form re home team is playing at
present i ought to win.
The Waupun team has disbanded and
todays Chicago Inter-Ocean is author
ity for the statement that the league
has ceased to exist. While it is better
to keep mp an organization yet better
games may be witnessed by the public
and more money made by the home
team if independent games are played
