BASE BALL NOTES.

The following is the way Lacrosse
correspondent of the Milwaukee Sem
tnel sizes up the Wausau base ball
team:
"Wausau, which lost last years
championship only by a game and a
half, looks more dangerous this year
than ever, despite the fact that it suf-
fered heavily by the draft and through
sales and will start the season with an
entire pew list of pitchers. This team
is strong in the catching department,
at first, second and third and in the
oatfield and on last years figures is the
hardest hitting team in the league. All
its pitchers are new, but they look
classy. If the pitching staff is up to ex-
pectations, Wausau will give all the
other clubs merry race all the way.
A tower of strength on this team is the
manager, Ferguson, an old American
association man, who has had splendid
success in picking his men,
The team arrived home last Tuesday
evening, because of disagreeable
weather down in Iowa. When weather
permitted the team practiced some dur
ing the week and on Sunday the first
game was played on the grounds with
picked team. The diamond was re-
L.
and was not in the best of condition,
A strong team of home players was
picked up to oppose the leaguers and
the following score shows the result:
Wausau.. 040100-S
Z. Team. ..................0 0 2 90 0 / o.
Dominick, Dooner and Erickson were
the battery for the big team and Kamp-
Ike, Bartos and Pappenfuss for the
minor team.
Dominick did not show up as strong
as he has done in practice games in
Iowa and had an off day. Dooner
gained a very favorable impression
among the fans and gives promise of
being star pitcher. He is cool and
deliberate and has speed to burn.
Bartos, although speedy and hard to
hit, was wild. He, too, had an off day.
Kampke is an Arbor Vitae find and was
given try-out. He quit in the middle
of the game. He is too young for fast
company. Erickson showed up we'll
behind the plate.
During the game, Fox executed neat
double play and McAuley, with one
hand, froze onto a line drive hot from
the bat. The game, of course, did not
have the ginger in it as would have
been the case in league contest
Wausau has strong infield and it is
believed that the outfield is better than
it was last year-there will be an i'm
provement in batting at least. Alto
gether every body is satisfied with the
team as it sizes up. A laughable fea-
ture of Sundays game was when
Brandenhagen stepped on his foot in
running from first 10 second and fell
down. The work of Col. Manuel on
the coach line was also a feature.
There was fairly good attendance.
Next Wednesday the boys leave for
ILL.,, where the team will
open the season the following day,
playing three games in that city Al
together thirteen games will be played
before the team returns home and sup
porters of the Wausau team will be

FIELD DAY.

Last Sunday was field day of the Law
and Order league of this city. Three
officers of the Anti-Saloon league of
Wisconsin, came to the city and adj
dressed congregations in various
churches u. g. Humphrey, State
Supt, occupied the pulpitin the Presby-
terrain church in the morning. Field
Secretary, 4. P. Hutton, of Milwaukee,
was at the Baptist church and A. IL.
Zechiel, Supt. of the Appleton district,
held forth in the Universalist church.
In the afternoon there was a mass
meeting for men, held in the 7. M. G.
A. building which was largely attend
ed; the gel tlemen named above were
all present and spoke 10 those present
but the principal address was made by
MIR. Humphrey. In the evening, Supt.
Humphrey spoke in the 81. Z. church,
Mr. Hutton in the Norweign Lutheran
and MIR. Zechiel in the German N. E..
church. They all spoke along the lines
of anti-saloon work, and told OF the
wonderful progress that had been made
throughout the country by the system
attic work and concentrated efforts OF
those who principally advocated the
enforcement of the laws now upon our
statute books. Out of 400 precincts, In
round numbers, in Wisconsin about
500 had voted for no license. At
the close of each of the services held in
the churches, cards were passed asking
for contributions to carry on the work,
and one could sign for any amount f0r
which he cared to.

M. W. A. CONVENTION.

Tomorrow, over one hundred visitors
from all parts of the state will be in
the city iH attendance at the WoOdmen
state convention. The two local lodges
have made all arrangements for taking
care of them. These visitors will begin
arriving tonight and most of them viii
be in the city only one day. 1t is ex-
pected that every county in the state
will be represented by one or more
delegates. The Marathon county dele
gates are VIM. Waterhouse, of this city
and Fred Broecker, of Schofield; altez>
mates Herman Marquardt, city, Archie
kernaghan, March Rapids.
The first thing on the program will
be reception of delegates BY local
members of the order. At 1000 o. clock
a welcoming address will be made by
Mayor John F. Lamont. Following
that the business session will open, with
John HarDeck of Appleton, state con-
sui, presiding. Business will be traEs-
acted up to the noon hour At 1:30 the
visitors will get into automobiles, which
will be provided by our citizens and
start out on sightseeing trip about
the city. for an hour. At 2s3O the dele
gates will again meet for business and
will be in session the balance of the af-
ternoon. After the supper hour the
visitors will be entertained with music
by the Columbia band. The wind-up
OF the days program will be in Armory
hall where dance will be given and
refreshments served. 1t was intended
to give banquet, but the experience
at former state conventions has been,
that at such functions there has always
been a small attendance, owing to the
fact that visitors were either too busy
in sightseeing or were leaving or early
trains.
From the time the delegates arrive
until they leave, there will Lot be an
idle moment for them. If the conven-
ton was of longer duration the local
lodges would have planned other fea-
lures of entertainment, and regret that
they could not.

The Junior A class has base ball
