never reached home but once. While
Cony obtained six hits. they came at
Just the wrong time. Hartman would
not let them bunch the hits enough to get
more than one run. COny did not make
SO very many errors. but each one was
costly and all of Gardeners runs were
obtained on errors.
shorty Mcader did very well indeer
considering the backing he had, which
might discourage any pitcher But it did
not seem to trouble him in the least: for
in the second inning when three hits and
a base or balls had filled the bases. one
run having been obtained on an error by
Hcndee. Shorty" rose to the occasion by
striking out two men and causing the
other to put up a fly to second.

NETT Heidrick at his home In Brook
vile. Pa, Tuesday afternoon. by a
Pittsburg sporting editor. who had
been authorized by President Ban
Johnson Of the American League. to
see if Heidrick really intends to quit
playing baseball or if he only wants to
get away from st. Louis.
Up to late hour tonight no re-
sponse had been received from Held

burg with his brother. Charles Held
rick at the Dusquesne Club. and there
met an emissary of the Boston team.

Hedges. proprietor of the st. LOUIS
American League Baseball Club has
been asked to sell, trade or release En-
NETT Heidrick. by Pres. johnson of the
American League. Johnson is acting IN
| the interest of the Boston American
League club. Mr.. Hedges referred the
matter to Manager McAleeer.
| Heidrick retired from baseball fol
| love of young woman two years ago
| The Iady's family was not quite pleased
| with the idea of taking a mere profess
sional ball tosser into it's bosom. Sc
Emmett forewent baseball for d
| woinans sake. His own family is quite
| well off in the land and timber way
and ne makes a living looking wise in
| the woods.
That McAleer and Hedges will trade
Heidrick If they can get anything like
an even deal goes without saying. Nc
Aleer will likely ask Bill Dineen fol
Heidrick, but just what Boston would
| gain by such a transaction is hard tt
see. Further, that Heidrck will play. is
extremely doubtful.

FOLK MAY COM E.

The democrats of Wausau and vicin-
ity will be pleased to learn that one OF
the possibilities of the coming cam
paign will be the presence ill Wausau
of one of two speakers of national
prominence-either w. j. Bryan or
Gov. Folk, of Missouri The state
central committee will in all probability
select the latter for the reason that he
has never appeared here, while Mr.
Bryan has been here several times.
After Mr.. Aylward was named as a
candidate for the democratic nomlna-
ton for governor, he received a person
al assurance from Gov Folk that the
latter would, in case Mr.. Aylward
secured the nomination, stump the
state in his behalf. The state central
committee will assign Messrs. Bryan
and Folk, cities in which to speak and
arrange dates later.
Gov. Folk, if he appers here, and
from the PILoTs source of information
there is very good belief that he will, he
will draw an immense audience. He is
one of the leading figures in this
country today. He is reformer-not
of the shallow LaFollette and McGovern
stripe-but nearly, if not quite the
equal, of Dist. Atty. Jerome, of New
York.

DATES SET.

All arrangements for the Y M. G.. A.
winter course of entertainments have
been completed and dates have been
fixed for each number. There will be
five numbers this year-the same as
last and the price of season tickets will
remain the same, 81 so. These tickets
will be on sale in few days and there
should be liberal patronage by the
public, for the course is made up of
very strong numbers,
The first number will be given on
Oct Is, when Victor's Royal Venetian
band appears here under the direction
of Sig. Calfatty Victor. The band
carries 20 pieces and a lady vocalist.
The program is made up of classical
and the better grade of popular music.
On Nov. 2lst, Dr. Thos. E. Green will
deliver one of his popular lectures.
One of his strongest lectures is '"The
Key to the Goth Century," and DR..
Green is considered one of the most
magnetic speakers on the platform
today.
On the evening of January Both Mrs.
Bertha Kunz-Baker will give an in
depreciation of the best work OF the
best literary writers of this and past
ages. One of the most pleasing num-
bers of the last course was Isabel
Garghill Beecher, who gave an enter
tainment along similar lines and Mrs
Baker is said to be the equal if not
superior to that lady.
The fourth number will be the Man
ming Glee club, which will appear
February 20. The club consists of ten
members, each an artist. The pro-
gram consists of three parts including
solos, concerted numbers, selections
from comic operas, miniature revival
of old time minstrelsy. burlesques, etc.
1t is an exceptionally strong organiza-
ton.
The fifth and concluding number will
be dorado Taft, sculptor, who will
appear March % Mr.. Taft has studied
under some of the best French masters
and at the close of his student life was
offered a position as instructor in the
Chicago Art institute, which position
he still holds. He lectures on "A
Glimpse of a Sculptor's Studio" or
How Statues Are Made" and at the
same time models figures out of clay
This entertainment must be seen to be
appreciated.

CONTRACT MADE.

The work of constructing the Wau-
sau Street Railroad Co.'S line is con-
lined at present to setting trolley poles.
Contracts are being made for addition
al material and the same is expected to
arrive here within the next two weeks.
When all, or nearly all, of this material
is on hand large force of men will be
put to work and building operations
rushed.
The contract for doing the work was
let last week to H. c. Hescott, of Chi
cago, who is at present engaged in
building or extending line in Green
Bay. He expects to have that work
cora,nlcted by the end of the week,
when he will come here with his tools.
Unless cold weather sets in unusually
early ii is expected that several miles
of track will be laid this fall.
The road will be constructed for
heaey traffic and with this end in view
the / rail has been selected 1t is
sixty pound rail, nearly as heavy as
used on ordinary steam railways. In a
great many cities objection is made to
this kind of rail and companies are
compelled to lay the L rail. With the
l. rail in use, wagon tracks with the
lower fange and teamsters take advan-
tage of the fact and drive their trucks
on the track, often holding up car and
causing cuss words to pass the lips of
the motorman. The local company
will so grade its track that the rails will
not interfere with traffic.
The company has abandoned the
plan of attempting to operate cars this
winter, but expects to have them run
ming by next June.
When the work of constructing track
Legins, it will move fast, for the COM
pany has practically little grading to
do, for most of the track will be laid on
streets.
