Song Birds are Disappearing.

1t will be noticed by careful observa-
tiOns that the song birds are dying out
at least they are disappearing from the
Vicinities where the domestic house
cat is much in evidence. AS a rule
birds come back year after year to
build their nests in the same places,
but the Matching of the young birds
and their learning to fly later on is at
tended with much danger because of
the watchful house cat who relishes as
a toothsome morsel these feathered and
da -nty song birds, and who is constant
ly alert to take advantage of the help
lessness of the young birds and make
them her prey. Gradually the parent
birds are learning this, and each year
fewer of them come back to the old
haunts, but seek farther away from the
houses the safety that is denied them
there because of the omnipresent fe-
line
This-is to be regretted. There is in
all the worlds harmonies no sweeter
one than the chorus of bird music
around our homes and to have these
symphonies stilled because of old Tab

Healthy Mothers.

Mothers should always keep in good
bodily health. They owe it to their
children. @ Yet it is no unusual sight
to see a mother, with babe in arms ,cou-

Returns From the Land Of Cold and
Gold


Henry j. Colman returned Monday
from Alaska and the Klyondike, COM
ing here from Minneapolis by way of
Downing, Stevens Point, Wausau and
Rhinelander in an automobile, the first
machine of that kind to penetrate the
wilds of the Wisconsin river valley
north of Rhinelander.
Mr.. Colman brought with him large
number of curios from the cold region
of the north. Among the articles, the
one attracting the most attention per-
haps is the huge tusk of mastodon,,
an animal which has been extinct for
thousands of years. The tusk of solid
ivory is over six feet in length, resem-
bles that of an elephant somewhat in
shape and has disappearance of a dead
pine root or piece of petrided wood.
The animal was discovered by Mr.. Col
mans party firmly imbedded in the ice
and in fair state of preservation. It
was with great deal of difficulty that
the relic was secured, but there is a
great deal of satisfaction in possessing so
rare natural relic, of which there are
but few in the country. Mr.. Colman
has spent several years in the Alaskan
territory and brought back with him a
number of other curios and relics,
which he presented TO his relatives at
this place.

Amigo, Is; Eagle River, 8 Is the Re-
suit of Sundays Game.

The Eagle River base ball team met
their third defeat this season at the
hands of the Amigo team. The score,
Is to 3, tells the story palmer than
words, and up to the present time the
home boys have been turning ov-
er and over in their minds these few
lines 50 suggestive and convincing:
''Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the
saddest are, it might have been. The
bitter cup of adversely is not the sweet
est beverage, and it is possible the
drubbing they received last Sunday at
the hands OF the Amigo team has dis
covered to them their weak points.
The game opened with Amigo at the
bat and Adams in the box for Eagle
River. The first man to bat sent the
first ball that was pitched to deep cen,
ter. The ball was tielded by Ewald
and is the only ball that was felded in
the outfeld during the although sever
al went into the outfeld only to be re-
turned after counteless errors. The
first three innings gave the visitors 10
runs aud the home team |. These in
nings were characterized by two fea
turs-if they may be called that-out-
side of Amigos score getting, The
first was decisions of the umpire, a gen
gentleman hailing from Amigo, who
evidently confounded the rules of base
ball with those of two old cat or ping
pong. The second was the fact that
not ball was thrown to first base by
the home team, the batsman either be-
Ing struck or in one or two instances
cAught out on fly balls. Amigo secur-
ed two more scores in the eighth and
three i'll the uinth, giving them to
tai of Is. while Eagle River secured
one run in each of the 1st 18th and 9th
innings.
Adams pitched good game but was
given the rankest kind of support. He
was, however, slow in his delivery at
times, with the result that base steal
ing was an easy matter. Although he
was not hit hard at any time, still
most any kind of hit was fumbled and
kicke1 around until from one to two
bases had been made on it. -
A&rklerodes, for Antigos ,Was pound
ed almost at will, but his support was
the very best. Amigo played fast ball
from start to finish, and while had the
home team played in their usual good
form and given theirs. battery the sup
port,due- them, the visitors would have
been given race for their money*sGIl
it is to be conceded that. :Aitigo is a
pretty tough proposition when it c0hahs
