HOUSTON. Texas. June "a

all negroes 70 leave Sabine county
Immediately or stand the eonse-

Following the lynohing OF nine
blacks. after two white men had

The negroes are armed and every
white man In the county 10 carrying
a rifle or shotgun today and most
81 them have reyolFerH In their
belts. The excitement is highest
about the town ~ Hemphill. near
where the lynehing took place.
II was impossible 20 learn who
posted the notices or whether any
organized movement IL under way.
II IL reported that the whites met
last night and formed an associa-
ton similar 10 the ku Klux or the
"whitecaps" with the purpose Of rid.
ding the community Of negroes.
The situation II intense through
the fear OF the whites that infufi-
atcd negroes will seek revenge
through the commission Of fiendish
crimes. All women and children
are being guarded and no white
woman ventures out Of sight OF her
home unlosa she is guarded.

SALES WEEK.

The Wausau Merchants association
held meeting Friday morning for the
purpose of considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of designating another sales day, end
talking over matters. There had been
some agitation regarding the closing Of
business places on Tuesday evenings
during the months of July, August,
January and February. but it was
found that there was too much sentiment
against such move for it to carry.
After due discussion it was decided
make the week of the county fair sales
week, and the following committee was
appointed to arrange for the same: +
L. Hudson, S. Livingston, VIM. Neul-
ing, o. q. Callies, o. Liljeqvist Rail-
road fare that week will be returned TO
out of town purchasers, providing they
purchase goods equal in value to a
stipulated amount. A year ago at 4
similar sales day offering the amount
was fixed at $50, but as there was con-
siderable dissatisfaction over the
method of paying fares at that time, it
is quite likely that another basis viii be
fixed upon this year.

B. B. NOTES.

LII luck is still pursuing the Wausau
base bail team and, the past week has
seen some experimenting with players,
with a consequent loss of games
Roach, of Crandon, played one game
at short. That settled him. Gums, a
Pacific coast pitcher, made two at
tempts to win games and failed. He
also was given a yellow slip of paper
Grodneck, who has played with several
teams in this league this summer, has
been covering short, showing mediocre
ability. Buemiller's split knee is still in
bad condition. Bartos has got back
into the game and is pitching his
usul quality of ball. Lang's arm is
still lame and he has pitched but
very little in the past ten days. The
Madisonians did something last week
no other team has performed this year
they took three out of four games
away from us on our own grounds
Madison appears to be Wausau's hoo
doc this year.
We have only maintained our lead
through the fact that Freeport has been
loosing at the same time wehave. IN
less our players round into form soon
we will lose our lead, for the southern
cities will be playing on their home
grounds in short time.

years ago Red was a first class ball
