lN-SHOOTS.

The first of series of three games
with Fond du Lac was played on the
home grounds yesterday and was won
by the visitors by the score given be-
low. Balliett assumed the task of hold
ing down the Fond du Lac hitters, but
he was not equal to the occasion and
they found him for enough hits in the
opening inning to get three runs and
win the game. Maggie was substituted
aud after that there was nothing to it.
Wausau failed, however, to overcome
the lead. The score:
Fond du Lac. 0 O 90 O0-3 3
Wausau..........1 o o o o o o. OIL s 2
Batteries, Rooms and Isaac; Balliett,

Pitcher Zook, who played most of the
season with Wausau, has signed to play
with Fond du Lac.
Since leaving home Wausau has Sc
cured new catcher, Pierce. who had
been playing with the St. Paul team.
He has proved all right so far.
Umpire Bush, considered one of the
best umpires in the league. has been re-
leased by President Moll. In game
last Thursday Bush lost his temper and
attempted to assault Manager Hawley
of the Lacrosse team.
Catcher Campbell remained at home
while the boys were out on their trip
the past week, Mckenzie having re-
joined the TEAM at Fond du Lac. Camp
BELLS hand is still in bad aa44;;::ion. but
he IS rounding into shape.
Real baseball critics are still picking
Wansau to win the pennant and many
are of the opinion that during the next
home game series Wausau will be right
near the top contending for first place,
now that La Crosse is on the toboggan.

Indian school, but whose home is with

Ted Sullivan, scout for the Chicago
White Sox, spent day in Fond du Lac
last week for the purpose of watching
the work of McAuley, Wausau's third
baseman, who has made record in the
league this year of playing twenty-eight
successive games without an error.
Sullivan predicted that McAuley would
be in faster company next year.
The first baseman of the Fond du Lac
team was arrested by CHIEF Malone
yesterday while at play. Lie is said to
have struck Hille with the ball and to
have called him a foul name. This
morning he pleaded not guilty and the
case was adjourned to HOO O'Clock.
he recOnsidered the matter later and
pleaded guilty. He was assessed fine
and costs amounting to 81.
Umpire Anderson, whom every fan in
the league despises as an umpire, and
for whom they have little use in any
other way, "got his' down in Madison
the other day. 1t appears that he tried
TO shower his attentions on Madison
young lady, with the result that he
bumped up against the business end of
a young mans fist, and Mr.. Anderson's
face resembled raw beefsteak when the
little "affair of honor" was over with.
The matter was settled by the young
man paying Anderson S35 as balm for
his wounded feelings and also court
costs.
