RANKS HIGH AS A READER.

The following, relates to young lady
well known in Wausau, is taken from
the Pasadena Gals Daily Star, of re.
cent date.
1.-The music section of the. Shakes
peare club ended its winter series OF
recitals at yesterday afternoons brigh!
entertaining program, gotten up by
Mrs j Benson Starr
The curiosity of the audience mounted
to the highest pitch while Miss Margaret
McCrossen gave the touching little
story of -Four Measures in the Key OF
e." Showing the power and influence
of we'll known refrain, Miss McCros-
sen gave each of her stories in natural
easy way that ranks her among our
best readers.
Miss McCrossen. is the daughter of
Dell McCrossen, OF st. Paul, and a
granddaughter of Mr.. and Mrs. James
McCrossen of Pasadena, who are now
visiting their son, H. 6. McCrossen and
family, in this city. Miss Margaret
was graduated from the Wausau high
school in 1904 and afterwards took a
course in the school of oratory in Bos-
ton, Mass. While in our high school
she gained an enviable reputation as a
reader and she became very proficient
in her chosen work while studying in
Massachusetts.
Miss McCrossen came east with her
grand parents last week, from Pasa-
dena, Cal, aud went out to Montreal
and Cobalt, Canada, to visit her broth
ers, Jay and Ralph. After a short
stay there she will come to Wausau for
a visit.

immigration For Wisconsin.

The publisher is just in receipt of the
first issue of publication known as
the Wisconsin Homeseeker, issued by
the Chicago & North Western Ry. for the
purpose of stimulating immigration to
Wisconsin and furnishing information
in regard to its natural resources.
A series of letters from settlers is pub
lished in the Homeseeker, in which
these pioneers tell in an interesting
way something of their experiences in
establishing new homes and developing
their land into profitable farms.
The North Western is DESTROYS of
securing as many more testimonials of
this kind as possible. A letter from
you would appeal strongly to the pros
pective homeseeker, anu every home
steader is earnestly invited to write a
letter telling of the crops, soil, climate,
schools, the cost of getting start, etc,
for use in this manner, and send it to
us together with the names and adj
dresses of friends in the East who would
be interested in having a copy of the
'Homeseeker,' illustrated books, maps
and other literature mailed to them
free of charge.
Address all communications on the
subject to Mr. w. b. Kniskern, p. Il. M.

TO THE PEOPLE OF WAUSAU.

Tomorrow being circus day, there
will probably be in the city number
of pickpockets and thieves such as fol-
low every attraction of this kind.
While a number of special police will
be on duty, it will be impossible to
watch every house all the time, so citi-
zens of the city are advised to see that
their valuables are locked up or stored
in safe places, also that homes are not
left alone and unlocked; if possible for
some one to be at home during all the
day, that is advisable. Also. persons
on the streets should have their money
and valuables located in their clothing
so as to afford no opportunity for pick
pockets. With these precautions made,
the police will be greatly assisted in
preventing robberies.

Chief of Police

B. 3. NOTES.
he home team

Since our last issue the home team
has been playing two series of games
with Oshkosh, one on the Oshkosh
grounds and one at home. Every
game except that of Sunday was ex-
ceedingly close and the highest SCOT
up to that day was AZ last Tuesday,
when it required seventeen innings to
decide the contest. Wausau won every
game of thestwo series While Wau-
sau was defeating Oshkosh in the two
opening games, Lacrosse, the leaders,
met two defeats at the hands of the
tailenders, Rockford, and Wausau was
elevated into first position. One rainy
day and two more defeats of Lacrosse
strengthened our lead and placed La
Crosse in third position. The game
of last Tuesday was remarkable one.
1t required over three and one-half
hours TO play it and record for long
games in this league for the season was
established. Lang pitched the entire
game for Wausau and was apparently
as strong at the windup as when he be-
gan. Notwithstanding that it was a
great game, Oshkosh turned out only
few hundred people to witness the con-
test the next day. On Friday, in this
city, another record for the season was
established. The game wins played in
fifty eight minutes That day there
were only seven scores all told made by
the eight teams in the league-another
record. They were all shut-out games
record number four
Sundays game was a comedy of
blunders and mishaps Our team had
an of day and had five bungles marked
up against it. The Oshkosh centre
fielder got spiked and the shortstop was
knocked down by Fox and trampled
upon. McAuley again hurt his
wrenched ankle-likewise Buemiller.
Brandenhagen was hit by thrown ball
from Erickson. and the game was de-
layed until the crimson stopped flow
ing. Fox's fingers were hurt by a
thrown ball and later he was struck
in the eye by a foul tip. Erickson and
the umpire were each hit in the shins
by balls from the pitcher. Wausau
demonstrated its slugginl aoility and
at no time after the fourth inning did
Oshkosh have a chance to win. Our
team departed yesterday morning for
Green Bay to open series The team
will return home Friday to play Fond
du Lac. Much depends on these six
games. If our team wins a sufficient
number it may maintain its lead while
out on the road, providing it can hold
its own while on the trip. Therefore
everyone should turn out at the next
home series and cheer the boys to
victory. Let us make it three straight
from Bobby Lynch.
Last Friday was ladies' day and
about two-thirds of the grand stand
was filled up with the fair sex. The
crowd on Sunday appreciated the new
move of the directors in having the
Columbia band present. Music helps
wonderfully to enliven a game.
Dunbar was loaned to Merrill Sun
day and won his game against Grand
Rapids AZ
The directors of the club released
Pitcher Dominick on Sunday. His
home is in St. Paul and he returned to
that city.

COUNTY CORRESPONDENCE.
RINGLE.

RINGLE.
Emil Ringle went to Hatley, on bust
ness, Friday.
Mrs. Theo. Miller went to Wausau,
Sunday, to call on friends.
Mrs. f. Ringle went to Kelly Tuesday
to call on her sister, Mrs. j. Sickler.
Mrs. Roy Guhse and children re-
turned to their home at Craigsineree,
Mich, to visit their uncle, Roy Guhse.
Peter Nelson went to Hatley, Wednes-
day, on business.
John Dittbrender, who resides four
miles north Of Ringle, reports that sew
eral deer come into his field nightly
and tramp down or otherwise DESTROY
his crops, and still there is fine for
killing deer; it's queer.
Last Tuesday evening, as the SIS
passenger train came to a stop at Ringle,
a fellow reached out of the window and
used whip (which he had with hint
by striking right and left anon, the
crowd that was gathered on the plat
form; he struck Mrs Emil Kinde, also
Henry Sonntag and would have sue
ceeded in striking more had not one of
the boys caught the whip and took it
away from him. No doubt the fellow
will be made to pay for his smartness.
Sunday p. m. the Hatley base ball
team came over to Ringle and played
ball with the boys here, the score at the
finish was 8 to 20 in favor of Hatley,
but no doubt it would have been differ
ent had the umpire, who was from
Hatley, done the fair thing, but the
Ringle boys are not satisfied and will
play the Hatley boys July 4th, when
they expect to change the score in
favor of Ringle.

WASH BLOUSE RETAINS FAVOR.
Wise Buyer Will Lay in Stock of
Shirt Waists Now.

Another summer Is heralded by the
shirt waist sales. Too convenient, too
dainty and too becoming to lose, the
wash blouse is with US to stay. Two
leading styles mark the summer out
look, the r1an-tailored shirt and the
lingerie blouse. The heavier linens,
the madras and the cheviots are
utilized in the former and the Paris
lawns, Persian lawns, Victoria lawns,
mulls and swisses in the latter. With
no real winter behind and possibilities
of cold February it may seem early
to lay in a stock of shirt waists, but
the sales are on and it is wise to take
time by the forelock and get the
choice of the display. Thrifty buyers
know that the first output of waists
early in the season show the best de-
signs at the best prices, and now is
the time to buy. The prices are no
higher than other years and designs
in the lingerie waists decidedly better
than last year, not quite so elaborate
and more elegantly simple.

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK.

Few things are attracting more atten-
ton in the religious world today than
the special training of children. 1t is
realized as never before that here is the
place where the emphasis needs to be
placed To this end the more thor
ough organization and grading of Sun
day schools has been attempted, at
least where facilities and available
teachers gave opportunity. The Pres
byterian Sunday school of our city is
fine example of this process 1t has
been matter of gradual growth; first
the cradle roll, acknowledging the spir-
itual birthright of the children, then
the primary department. then the
junior, and fourth the intermediate
department which, with this year, is
first organized in the graduation of
fine class from the junior department,
whose transition exercises took place
Sunday night with an entertainment,
whose thoroughness of preparation and
beauty of development charmed a con-
gregation almost as large as that gath
cred in the morning. Both services
furnished unalloyed pleasure. Parents
and friends were delighted to see the
grasp of the children upon great funda-
mental truths. The singing and recita-
tions were of exceptional worth, and it
was sight never to be forgotten, as
they received their beautiful diplomas
with suitable and polite acknowledge
ment, upon the conclusion of the pas
tors appropriate remarks to each grad
uating class. Teachers and scholars
are alike to be congratulated upon their
splendid work

colored undersleeves in paris

It is said that Partisan style makers
are concealing their original designs
because Americans steal them, as If
style isn't anybody's property. Word
comes that the favorite sleeve in
Paris just now is finished by an I'M
dersleeye, not the sheer white under
sleeve with which women here have
long been familiar, but an under
sleeve of satin, velvet or silk, Of
relieving color from the loose outer
sleeve. They don't seem to be worn
around here as yet, but women Should
be on the lookout for them, as the
may be attractive.
