In 1886 such a band was visiting
there, when in a drunken fray a
Menomonee killed a Winnebago. By
the savage law he must either be
given up or his life must be taken by
his own tribe. A council was held
and instead of the Menomonee
the chief of the tribe offered them
whiskey. The Winnebagoes could
not resist the temptation and ten gal
Ions of whiskey was produced which
was drank by all the parties over the
grave. The first Menomonee chief
mentioned was Kioulouskoio, in 1895,

eight or ten holding sway at the same

STORIES HEARD In
AND ABOUT THE CITY
Some "Pints" and "Quarts" Recorded by
Reporter Representative.

A good story has leaked out in the
host of stag party, given last week
in this city. The wife after the
fashion of good club women prepared
a fine banquet, then went to another
town to spend the night.
Now toward the awfully "wee" and
very 'Sma" hours, it occurred to the
"boys'' that they would wash the
dishes, and surprise the lady.
They did.
It seems that this up-tO-date club
member had been following carefully,
:;HintS on How to be Beautiful -
given in the Chicago American, and
as aid to the same bought some very
fine toilet soap, Is cents per cake for
her own special use. The boys dis
covered it and into the dish pan it
went. The one who always washes
the dishes at the club house remarked,
as he rubbed it in the bottom of the
skillet:
something smells like the apple
blossoms on fathers farm back IN
Illinois.
They washed a while and then
every body wiped dishes. The hest
furnishing the following articles for
tea towels:
One pair of linen pillow cases, two
lunch cloths, one sash curtain, and
last, but not by any means least, an
exquisite drawn work Mexican table
spread, the pride of the lady, and the
envy of all her friends.
Then the quiet man who spends
hours sitting on log fishing and
never gets bite, said, as he rolled it
up in wet wad and laid it in the
polished side board:
ssBeats all how much time the
women waste sewing holes in their
dish-toWels. y
The hosts wife returned next day.
We will draw the very heaviest
portiere over the scene.

pitcher, put the Marshtield nine out
in the first inning. Two good hits in
the same inning brought Bandelin
home with the first score for the city
team.
Love got pass to first, Petzold and
Brennan made hits and Talant, an
error, and Love scored. Marshtield
again blanked. All this happened in
the second inning.
The visitors repeated their story in
the third, but the locals piled up
three more scores, Mclaughlin, Love
and Petzold bringing them in. The
fourth and fifth, however, gave only
blanks to Grand Rapids. A single
and three-bagger gave Marshfeld
their first two scores in the fifth.
Marshfield's batting eyes were
opened in the sixth. Two singles, a
double and a three-baser gave them
five runs-but this ended their scoring
and hitting performances for the rest
OF the game. A fourth score would
have been made had it not been for
the excellent throw by Mclaughlin in
the left field to Petzold at the home
plate. Brennan thought he could
equal Helixson. Being the first man
up 10 the sixth, he whirled the bat
and 10! the ball earned him three
base run and a little later score.
Not much of anything was doing in
the seventh.
Grand Rapids half of the eighth
was the most exciting inning of the
game. Petzold was put out on a fly
to f. Troeh, Vincent reached first by
an error Of the third base man and
then Brennan came up with fire in his
eye. There were calls for a 'home
run," and Brennan performed what
the fans most desired. Ii laurel
wreathS had been at hand, he would
certainly have been crowned by the
enthusiastic spectators. Rosenow hit
a grOunder TO the pitcher and Bande-
lin raised fly to the left field, but
Seibert managed to drop it. A hit by
Mahoney and an error by F. Troeh,
brought in Bandelin, making the
final score nine.
In the ninth Talant got a base on
balls, Seibert reached first by an error
of Brennan, Strass got out on a
grounder to the pitcher. Then, as it
was getting late, Bandelin showed
what was in him and struck out the
TrOeh brothers.

SCORES OF TWO GAMES
ARE 10 TO 6 AND 9 TO 7
Games Among the Most Excitinf
Ever Played in This
City.
WISCONSIN VALLEY LEAGUE

Among the many features of the
Fourth of July celebration were the
two defeats of the Marshfield base
bail team by. the local nine. The
home boys felt that something siren
uous was demanded and they went
into the games. determined to wipe
out the two defeats suffered earlier in
the season.
The game on the Fourth was excit-
ing from beginning to end. The
rooters were about equally divided
and this fact gave vim to the per.
fOrmance.
Some OF the innings were regular
comedies of errors in which almost
every player had part, but this
added more to the element of uncer-
tainty which was prominent through
out the game.
Marshtield played steady ball for
the first three innings, and Grand
Rapids held out in the same style two
innings longer--then both teams gave
it up and the spectators were treated
to scientific and reckless playing in
alternate innings.
Marshtield made short work Of
Grand Rapids ambition to score in
the second inning by making a double
play and a catch in the left field. In
the same inning strike-out and flies
to Love and Bassett retired Marsh
field. The next inning was unevent-
full.
In the fourth, Marshfieid was again
blanked, but Grand Rapids scored
three times. The first two men up
got passes to first base, the next
reached first through an error by the
pitcher: then Love and Petzold struck
out. The errors galore helped to
bring in the runs.
In the fifth, Grand Rapids got one
point, but in the sixth, nothing. 1t
was the sixth that made Marshfeld
happy: four scores came to them.
Perhaps the five errors made by the
locals tell straight forward story,
The stampede, however was stopped
by a good catch by Smith, who in
turn helped to put out the third man
trying to gain third.
The seventh inning gave Grand
Rapids another score and Marshfeld
her last two. Marshfeld, in this
inning, took advantage of an error
and also succeeded in landing on the
ball three times.
The last half on the eighth was an
eventful one for our nine. McLaugh-
lin, PetZold and BasSett each took
hit and Marshfield in their disturbed
condition of mind made things better
by donating five errors Result-fve
more scores, brought in by Alex
Bandeline, Love, Petzold, Vincent
and Bassett.
Marshfeld could do nothing in the
ninth. Bandeline struck out the first
one up, Mahoney caught a fly from
Seibert, and Mclaughlin initiated by
catching fly from Strass in the left
field.

in the tirst inning. Two good hits in
the same inning brought Bandelin
home with the first score for the city
team.

Much Praise Offered by all Citi-
zens and Visitors For the
Royal Entertainment.
PARADE WAS A FINE
FEATURE OF THE DAY
Militia Drill, Balloon Ascension,
Ball Game, and all Other
Events Enjoyed.

Fourth of July, this year, both in
point of weather and celebration was
ideal. Of the three or four Thousand
visitors. not one was heard TO offer a
word of criticism. Certainly every
citizen was pleased with the perfect
way in which all the events came off.
There is every reason, therefore, to
thank all who executed the plans for
the national holiday.
The day opened cloudy, but before
nine O'Clock, the sky had cleared and
all were ready to enjoy the program
planned by the Eagles. The cclebra-
tion began at sunrise when there was
firing salute of forty-fve guns.
The Floral and Industrial Parade.
The floral and industrial parade was
one of the best events Of the day. 1t
started at the Northwestern depot
and traversed the principal streets of
the city. The parade was made up in
the following order:
City band, Chief of Police Garrihee
in a carriage, Grand Rapids fire de-
partment, Marshfield militia company,
floats of the Stevens Point Brewing
company, Riverside steam laundry,
E. II. Mccarthy, Johnson & Hill

pany, A. w. Gitchell, Rowland s.
Sons, Church & company, Reilands
meat market, J. w. Natwick, A. P.
HirZy, Neiman shoe shop, Ottos
pharmacy.
Stevens Point Brewing company had
u float representing their business in
full motion; in comic effect it was the
clown Of the parade.
Riverside steam laundry had fine
float Of miDiture steam laundry in
operation. Little girls dressed in
white played the parts of laundry
women.
e. Il. Mccarthy had a buggy ap-
propriately decorated with national
colors and hOrse-shoes: in it were
represented all the tools of an up-to-
date horse-shoeing shop.
Johnson 81 Hill company had two
floats in the parade. OF these, the
float that especially attracted the
attention was the one that contained
the display of carpets, laces, rope
portieres, lace curtains, etc. To
brighten the effect beautifully gowned
ladies occupied prominent places in

the float.
j. r. Ragan exhibited his business
by fine display OF furniture. In a
corner of the well furnished room sat
a negro playing an accordion.
Centralia Hardware company had a
large float representing a perfectly
stocked store. There could be found
a large array OF kitchen utensils,
stoves, plumbing materials, etc.,
enough to satisfy the most exacting
housewife.
Spafford, Cole & company's float
presented beautiful canopy of dry
goods. The carpets, laces, silks, etc,
were so arranged that the display
could defy the criticism of any artistic
eye. In the center of the float was
placed the wax figure Of lady dressed
iG the very latest fashion.
Geo. F. Krieger had handsome
display of bicycles and other machinery
which he handles. One of the objects
that created great deal of amuse-
ment was his tandem, ridden by two
queerIy dressed individuals. Mr..
Krieger himself rode about on his
motorcycle.
Kruger & Warner, dressed in the
height of fashion, and seated in a
handsome landau, succeeded well in
displaying the articles found at their
store.
Heineman Merchantile company
certainly lived up to their we'll estab-
lished reputation. Their float repre-
sented dry goods store busily serving
customers The clerks and patrons
were dressed in white and added much
to the general effect.
A. w. Gitchell had float showing
that he was in the plumbing business
and ready to serve customers. The
framework of the cottage built on the
wagon was made OF pipings ingeni-
ously connected.
Geo. Il. Rowland & Sons exhibited
agoodly line Of dry goods and groceries.
1t gave an excellent impression of the
large share Of business that is daily
coming their way.
Church & company had a fine
display of hardware, plumbing, etc.
An unique part of the float was
heated range upon which doughnuts
were cooking. The cakes when ready
were served right and left to the
spectators.
Nick Reiland had prepared a model
meat market In miniture. It was
taking" and aided great deal in
making the industrial parade COM
plete.
Gross & Lyons showed the multitude
only one side OF their large business.
The big load Of flour would indicate
that many know where TO get their
'staf Of life."
J. w. Natwick exhibited very fine
lot of furniture. The scene was
parlor vivitied by the presence of white
dressed little girls.
A. P. Hirzy had float advertising
his optical instruments. Mr.. Hirzy
was seated in cabin examining the
eyes OF a patient. Near him sat
another playing an accordion. From
time to time one Of the patients
talked optical instruments to the
crowd and also announced the program

OF the day.
Fl. Neiman advertised his shoe
store with goat and cart. This
exhibition created no end of amuSe-
ment.
Gust Otto drove a carriage COM
pletely covered with flowers. He
advertised the "Best Ice Cream and
Soda at Otto's Pharmacy and no doubt
many took the advantage Of the an
nouncement.
Bombardment, Drill and Fire Run
The Reproduction of the Bombard-
ment of San Juan" was viewed from
the bridge at IL O'Clock. 1t consisted
of dynamite blasts at the mill of the
Consolidated Water Power and Paper
company, and served also to call the
attention of the visitors of the many
improvements that are going on here.
The fire run By the west side COM
pany was very good and impressed
all with the fact that we have some
thing to depend upon in case of fire.
The drill by company A, second
Wisconsin national guards, took place
on Cranberry street. 1t is no flattery
to state that Marshfield has one of the
best, il not the best, companies in the
state. Many were the expressions Of
admiration by the spectators.
Events at the City Park.
The Hypodrome race between H. A.
Perry and John Warren, of Nekoosa,
were among the most pleasing events
OF the day. John Warren won two of
the half-mile heats.

Marshfield Also Loses on Sunday.

Although both teams in Sund ay IS
game made many errors, the game as
a whole was more steady than that on
the preceding day. From a batting
standpoint, this game was by far the
most exciting and interesting. Grand
Rapids made eleven hits and Marsh
field nine The home run and three
bagger by Brennan and the two-bagger,
by Mahoney, set the crowd almost
wild. In this respect the Marshfield
supporters were also enthused, for
Helixson made two three-b -baggers and
j. Troeh, two-bagger.
