TAG DAY.

Little girls, medium sized girls, big
girls, young girls, older girls and
mostly girls paced the streets last
Saturday from early morning until
late in the evening, tagging people,
in the interest of placing a free bed
in st. Mary's hospital. Hardly any
one got away from them and the ma
jority of people approached gave some
thing.
After all had turned in their col
lections to Mrs. A. E. Morrison and
the same had been counted, it was
found that the gross receipts were
S534.55.
The ladies who have interested
themselves in the hospital will meet
Friday and decide on further plans.
The results of tag day were more sue
cessful than had been anticipated.
The receipts of tag day year ago,
when money was raised for the hospi-
tai in general, amounted to S502.l 3
and the expenses were $l3.16. The
sisters at that time were driven
around in an automobile and collected
s133. This year they were SO busy
taking care OF patients that only $40
was collected.
There are thirty-five patients in
the hospital at present, ministered to
by twenty sisters. There have been
number of typhoid fever cases and
all have successfully recovered.
The first patient to occupy the free
bed was taken to the hospital yester-
day. 1t is a case In which the Bap-
fists are interested.

Work at the Y is moving along
nicely these days. The gym classes
are getting more interesting with a
larger enrolment with each class ses-
sion. The league games in the boys
classes are creating good deal of in
terest. The boys of the junior classes
held a Hare and Hound race this
afternoon, Riebe, Davenport and
Merklein, three runners from the
Junior A class were the HareS and
Hounds were the remainder of the
boys, a handicap of three minutes
was given the Hares and the Hounds
picked up the trail of the Hares at
the northeast corner of the high school
and followed it up over east hill and
around back TO the Y again. The run
lasted for about twenty minutes and
gave the boys good healthy outing
and proved very interesting to them
as well. The intermediates will hold
one on a larger scale, and the high
school athletes will enter the race as
well. The seniors are turning out
well TO classes and are having some
good times in the gymnasium. The
seniors Bible club has been organized
for the season and they have also or
ganized a base ball and basket ball
team in the club with maroon and
white as their colors, and got off to a
good start Saturday night by beating
a team of the seniors in fast basket
ball game, IA TO 8, but fell down before
Weik's senior base ball team last
night in one sided game, % to IL.
The business men are turning out
fairly well these days to the class
work and are having a good time to-
gether playing indoor base ball and
basket ball. The fine weather has
kept the attendance of the Sunday
afternoon mems meetings down but
fair sized audience listened to a STIR
ring talk by Secretary Campbell on
Sunday afternoon.

the funeral of the late Louis X.
Wright was held from st. Johns
church, where relatives, and friends
from various parts of the country,
gathered TO pay tribute to his memory.
The obsequies were among the largest
attended and most impressive ever
held in the city. At nine O'Clock the
members of Wausau Lodge, No. 2l5,
|. O. o. F., marched to the home on
Grand Ave., and from there accom-
panied the family and remains to the
church. The pail bearers selected
from the order were, E. G. thinner
man, John Ringle, Gustaye Mueller,
Geo. SteltZ, Grin Liljeqvest and ulius
COLI. The services were according to
the ritual of the Episcopal church, the
Rev. Father w. E. johnson, rector of
st. Johns church, officiating, and the
singing was by the boys choir of the
church. The church edifice was
crowded to its utmost, and the SER
vices most impressive. The members

services the Odd Fellows formed
about the grave and each deposited a
Sprig of evergreen, this was followed
by company G firing a salute over the
grave of the departed brother. The
profusion of floral tributes spoke
louder than words of the love and es-

full designs were sent in by the Ma
sonic and Odd Fellows lodges, Wau-
sau Liederkranz, Hunters club, Mara

WAUSAU VS.. GRAND RAPIDS.
In the game with the Grand Rapids
high school at that city Saturday our
high school team was defeated by
score of ITO.
The fact that the Grand Rapids
team greatly outweighed our boys and
that many of the Grand Rapids men
were nearly as fast players as our own.
accounted for this defeat
Grand Rapids made few long gains
during the game principally on cross
and straight bucks, but on the whole
our team held them to short gains.
Wausau gained mostly on their trick
plays and Merry runs, and many times
made their distance.
The line up was.

The game vas delayed quite while
In starting on account of the question
as TO whether Smith, the captain and
quarterback of the Grand Rapids
team was entitled to play because he
played with professional team, thus
making him professional. 1t was
finally decided to Withdraw him from
the game. This game decides the
race for the valley championship in
which the following clubs are usually
considered: Amigo, Grand Rapids,
Merrill, Stevens Point and WauSau.
Grand Rapids boys, defeating Wau-
sau, who have either tied or defeated
the rest is clearly entitled to the
championship.
Wausau tied Amigo in the later
seasons game and neither have played
against the same teams by which a
farther comparison can be effected.
Therefore Wausau and Amigo are
tied for second place. While we also
tied Stevens Point we had by far the
best of the game so Stevens Point
came in third. Merrill, who cancelled
most of their games, and who were
beaten by Stevens Point, trails along
