B. B. NOTES.

We pass the cake to Green Bay. The
fellows representing the old French
mission took an entire series from US
something no other term has been able
to do this season. Pickett, manager of
the Green Bay team, ofliciated as
umpire and, it is said. was the
biggest factor in his team winning.
A series is opened on the home
grounds today with Fond du Lac.
Every team is playing great ball at
present. No other league in the country
shows better punching up in the per-
centage column. No team has cinch
on the pennant. 1t may go to Wausau,
the leaders, or to Rockford, the tail
enders.
Manager Ferguson of Wausau, sus-
pended some time ago, has been rein
stated
The only disturbance in the league at
present is in the matter of getting
umpires who give satisfaction. The
Madison people who loudly criticized
the fight on our grounds few days
ago, had case last week. too. Mud
was throwa ct the umpire. At Green
Bay an umpire was assaulted by citi-
zen who later was arrested and fined.
Wausau has got valuable addition
to the team in Sykes. He pitches good
ball and is strong with the stick.
Geo. Fay came down from Canada
yesterday for visit with friends for
while. George pitched ball for the
Wausau team the first summer the
league was organized. This season he
has been playing ball up in Canada.

BLASTING ROCK.

Workmen have completed the city's
water reservoir on east hill to height
of about twenty feet above the base
The trench for the pipes which will con-
meet it with the city's water system is
dug as ar as Summit street. This has
been laborious and slow task. The
men have encountered solid rock almost
all the way up the hill, necessitating
continual blasting. A large portion of
this rock having been hauled to the city
crusher. Two pipes are being laid in
the trench of different sizes, one to feed
the reservoir, the other to discharge the
water from the reservoir. A large
water pipe is also being run into the
Alexander Stewart residence, which
heretofore has had to depend on a well
for supply, it being necessary often
times in winter to haul water daily
when supply ran low. This will un-
doubtedly be the most costly service
pipe ever laid in the city, for within two
feet of the surface solid rock is en-
counterd. 1t will be some time before
the Fast hill extension will be ready to
have the water turned into the pipes.
No start has as yet been made toward
erecting the engine house for the pump
which will be situated half way up the
hill

EVERYBODY RAN.

A farmer brought a bull into towI
yesterday lie had previously sold to O
Z. Peterson, a local cattle buyer The
animal Was taken to the stock yard
near The ST. Paul tracks, and was tied
to pest. Children tainted him by
emitting sounds similar to those of a
good healthy taurus, and getting "riled''
he tore loose from his moorings and
started on rampage. He came up the
street toward town, taking a run after
everybody he saw. When he got to
Sixth street he turned north. At the
corner of Scott and Sixth, he chased a
woman onto a porch, nearly frighten-
ing her to death. He wandered over
onto Seventh street and at the corner
OF Grant took after man and chased
him around a telephone pole several
times. Continuing up Seventh he spied
well known gentlemen on q wheel
and started in pursuit The gentleman
was knocked off mis- wheel and escaped
into a near by house. A police officer
by this time got onto tie animals trail
and knowing that he had the law on
his side he attempted to arrest" the
beast. The latter, however was no re-
spector of law or ol4er and the guar
dian of the peace made a swift run for
DR.. Conlin's house. where an open door
offered haven of retreat The officer
then telephoned for re-inforcements.
When they arrived the animal was cap
tured and tied to two fence posts He
pulled these out and going through
wire fence he continued his way north
ward, chasing everyone he saw. He
took after boy on a wheel and fol-
lowed him for several blocks, the boy
escaping by the narrowest margin.
Finally Fay Andrews succeeded in las
SONG the beast when he had reached a
point on the @. Nj. & ST. Paul right Of
way north of the granite works. A
team and wagon was secured to which
he was tied and brought back to the
city. 1t was another battle of Bull
Run. There being so many children
playing in the streets these vacation
days, it is wonder some of them were
not killed or seriously injured.

Judge, Mr.. Bird became the Junior
member of that firm. After coming
here he established the fact that his
early training in the profession of law
had eminently fitted him for the hand
ling of all cases, no matter what the
issue involved, and as a trial attorney
and counsellor he has enjoyed repu-
tation which is enviable. 1t is such
business ability as he possesses which
lends prestage to any enterprise, and
the mere fact that he is secretary and
treasurer of this concern is sufficient to
win the confidence of the public.

had charge of the affairs of the United
States land office. Later he read law
in the otliee of Bump, Marchetti q
Bump. Some time after the Bank of
Edgar was established, he assumed
charge of the affairs as cashier, and by
exercising good business judgment he
built that institution up to its present
fiourishing position. The affairs of the

THE BUILDING
The PuoT does not feel adequately
prepared to intelligently describe the
company's new building Its descrip-
ton can be covered in these words .
1t is the handsomest in the city. 1t was
built with three objects in vew-beauty,
safety and convenience.
The structure is as nearly freproof as
modern architecture demands. 1t is of
solid brick with Bedford stone trim
mings, the west and north walls being
faced with white enameled terra Gotta
giving it beautiful appearance from
the exterior. The interior is just as
handsome The entrance is finished in
polished marble, the stairways are of
marble and the wood finishings and
fixtures are of fine grade of antique
oak. All aisle floors are of tile; the
Office floors of polished maple. There
is plenty of light and good ventilation
The building is piped for gas and wired
for electricity. The lower floor is
arranged for the compary's trust bust
ness, three rooms being devoted to that,
all nicely finished There are also a
suite of office rooms, storage rooms,
vaults, etc, on this floor. The second
floor will be used by the law firm of
