Football

The Normal team had walkaway
Saturday, beating the Galahad elev-
en- to a az TO whitewash. The Wis
itors were outweighed a good ten
pounds to the man and stood no
chance whatever, either on the de-
Tense or offense. Normal played
the old line plunging game and was
not held once for downs, and had to
resort but twice to punting, and
both times the distance to make
was heightened by penalties for
hurdling. On the other hand Gala
had made their distance but twice,
and both times by a fumbled for
ward pass recovered by Galahad
player.
The Normal made three touch
downs in the first quarter, two in
the second, two in the third and one
in the last. They were decidedly off
color in kicking goals after the
touchdowns, scoring but two out
of eight attempts.
Normal had things their own way
too much to allow one to get line
on the team. They used but three
or four different plays, and as they
were seldom checked inside of five
yards, there was no necessity for
any variance. The team plays to-
gether we'll and appear to under
stand the game. Bliss, from the
quarterback position, gets the
plays we'll started and shows good
judgment in selecting and direct
ing them. The pedagogues are
sure to put up good game against
any team in their class.
Babcock, of the Galahad team,
was badly bruised about the head
in the last few minutes of play and
was taken to local doctors office
for treatment. His injury was not
| S erfOuS however and he was aDle &c
drive back to Hudson soon after
the game.
The Normal lined up as follows
Sherburne, right end; Thomas
right tackle; Reddin. right guard
Thompson, center; Sanford, left
guard; Cooke, left tackle; Foley anc
Riley, left end; Bliss and Bergh
quarter back; Bergh and Sakrison
right half; Condit and Crawford
left half; Mosher, full back.

Pierce and St. CrOix News
paper Men Organize
Ben Franklin
Club

In response to a call issued by
Chas. Lowater of the Spring Valley
Sun nine Pierce and ST. Croix coun-
ty newspaper men met at Hudson
Monday for the purpose of organiza-
ton. Those present were: F. M.
WEIGH of the New Richmond News
and Republican-Voice Chas. Low
ater, Spring Valley Sun; F. w.
Hartwig, Hammond News; c. D.
Kline, Hudson True Republican; A.
E. Reese, Hudson Star observer;
E. S. Doolittle, Pierce County Her
aid; o. K. Hawley, Baldwin Bullet
in; Percy APP Roberts, River Falls
Times; C. r. Morse, River Falls
Journal. The organization was
perfected and will be known as
1.-The West Wisconsin Ben Franklin
Club" Chas. Lowater was elected
president and F. M. WEIGH secretary
and treasurer. Committee on by
laws, etc., were appointed and in
structed to report at meeting to
be held in Hudson November IA.
Ben Franklin clubs exist in near
ly every metropolis in the United
States, and the movement is now
becoming popular in the smaller
cities. The name, Ben Franklin
Club" had it's origin in the fact
that Franklin, in his autobiography
pointed out the necessary ofsuch q
protective organization by charging
his competitor with sharp practices
The first Ben Franklin club was
formed in 1900 The purpose is the
education of its m e m ers in
knowing cost Of production; cost
of selling; cost of depreciation and
renewals; and to determine q
reasonable profit" The idea is to
revise conditions which have made
the following parody too well
known fact:
Everybody works the printer,
| And he huStleS round all day
1 Worrying about his business
/ VIII he lose or make it pay?
4 Still he keeps cutting prices
Just like crazy man;
| Everybody works the printer
/ Because they know they can"
The meeting at Hudson was
fraught with much interest anc
| goodfellowship prevailed. A bright
future for the club is confidently
predicted.

WOman's League

The Portland Chapter of the
American Woman's League" held
its regular meeting last Friday
evening in the City Hall, much in.
terest being evinced in the work for
the ensuing year.
Uutil further notice the meetings
will be held every Friday night at
the same time and place in order to
facilitate work and more extensive
ly outline plans for the future of the
local chapter.
II is of vital importance to the
Portland organization that a good
representation Of her members be at
the annual election of officers,
which takes place Friday evening,
Sept. 10th, and each member is
urged accordingly to aid by her
presence, while suggestions from
honorary members are desired.
There can be but one barrier be-
tween Portland and a beautiful
chapter or club house, which will
be built by local contractor, fur
nished complete and maintained in
the future by the organization with
out financial output either of the
members or the city, (aside from
the building site), and that is,
inactivity on the part of the men,
bers themselves, in failing to quick
ly complete membership require
ments aud enlisting others in the
ranks.
The goal is we'll worth every in
dividual effort and all our united
efforts, and with such incentive as
lies back of the plan Of this grand
organization with a membership Of
about 100. 900, representing every
state In the union, every member
should be stimulated by unbounded
enthusiasm and quick action.
The courses Of the correspondence
schools that have affiliated with the
League are absolutely free 10 every
member aud her minor children, be.
ginning from the day Of signing APP
plication for membership. II is
an opportunity you cannot afford
to lose, and one you should feel

fted thereby.
To those who have not been reg.
ular in attendance, a most cordial
invitation is extended to come Fri.
day. Sept. 10Th, bringing one or
more Of your friends with you.
The inactivity Of one member is
like the inaction Of a vital organ of

Fever Dying Out

The annexation fever seems tc
be dying out, to an extent at least.
Many of those who signed the pc
tition asking that the matter be
brought to a vote of the people
have changed their views and now
believe it to be to the best interests
of St. Johns not to annex at this
time. The proposition, when 1t
was first brought to their attention,
was rather alluring and looked
good on the surface. But a little
delving below the top layer revealed
its many disadvantages and objec-
tions. The fact that Portland has
everything to gain and st. Johns
everything to lose, with one or two
minor exceptions, by annexation
has become more apparent after a
little reflection. Many signed the
petition under the belief that
large majority of the citizens
wanted to annex; others did so just
to get rid of the persistent petition
ers, while the others were honest in
their belief tha, conditions would
thus be improved.
Thinking, discussion and reflec-
tion have worked a decided change
in public sentiment, and where II
would have been a close vote had
the issue been up for balloting upon
several weeks ago, today annexa-
ton would be defeated by an over
whelming majority. The annexa-
tionist who was brave enough to
express his views on the street cor
ners has been so overpowered with
arguments and facts against annex
alton. that Il is seldom one has the
temerity now to do so. The agita-
ton has not been devoid of good,
however. Many have been made
to realize to a greater degree than
ever before the manifold blessings
we enjoy as citizens of ST. Johns.
Whether the issue finds a place on
the ballot or not, no bitter feelings
should be engendered. We are all
neighbors aud fellow citizens, aud
while we cannot all think alike, we
all need each others help, and any
discussion on the question should
ever be in a friendly and rational
manner.

with pleasure, and ways aud means
to raise funds for the proposed new

finally decided to hold a three or
four days fair, in which all kinds
OF amusements and vaudeville
stunts will be INDUCED in. The
date for holding same was not de.
6nitely decided upon, but at the
regular meeting OF the Order to-

Appendicitis

Appendicitis is usually first mani
tested by the presence of a keen,
severe, stabbing pain in the region
of the right groin. Combined with
this symptom there may be colicky
pain in the region of the bowels.
One may notice extreme tenderness
upon pressure in the region indi-
Gated, In many cases the patient
has a severe chill, followed by a
quick, high fever. The patient be-
comes rapidly i'll in some instances,
and at times enters a state of utter
collapse. The pulse becomes rapid,
and although strong at first, soon
becomes feeble. Invariably there
is nausea, and sometimes severe
vomiting. Constipation is always
present. The abdomen frequently
becomes swollen aud the skin over
it is tight as a drum head. The
pain is often spasmodic in char
acter, not continuous.
When threatened with appendi-
citis, the first thing to do is to
knead the abdomen in a circle, GO
ing up the right side; across the
upper side from right to left; down
the left side; across the lower part
from left to right. Frequently, the
symptoms of the disease will quick
ly disappear under this kneading
process. OF course, this treatment
is impossible after the disease has
thoroughly developed.
When the disease has fully de.
veloped, the very first remedy that
should be used is copious flushing
of the lower bowel, that 1t may be
cleaned absolutely Of fecal matter.

Why We Are Wanted

Residents of ST. Johns, Lents
and the district northwest of the
city may not be given the oppor-
tunity of voting on the proposition
of annexation to Portland at the
November election. AT the meet
ing of the judiciary committee of
the city council yesterday afternoon
the question of permitting the
voters of these suburbs to vote on
the matter was discussed in detail,
and there was considerable opposi-
ton to the plan.
Councilman Cellars, In particular,
displayed an inclination to defer
the annexation proposition. He
said he believed the city charter
should be changed so that the
voters of both the city and the dis
tricts to be annexed should have a
voice in the matter, instead of leav-
ing the proposition entirely to the
voters of the district seeking adj
mission to the city.
Councilman Ellis, the other MEM
Der of the committee present, was
in favor of passing the necessary
ordinances giving the districts seek
ing annexation an opportunity of
voting on the proposition. lie said
the city would profit by the addition
of these new territories, as the as
sessed valuation on which the taxes
of the city are levied would be
larger, while these districts WOULD
EXPECT LITTLE FROM THE
CITY FOR SEVERAL YEARS.
What they desired, he said, was to
secure advantage Of city improve
ments which they would PAY FOR
THEMSELVES. They could Sc
cure good streets, sewers and water
mains and could bond their prop.
erty for them. Tuesdays Tele-

working machine, which he has
named the Greatest Machine on

machine which is a great curiosity,
and he will send it to Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt, of whom he is
a great admirer. The head of the
gavel is made OF iron bark with
wood-6ber ferrules, and has the
name Teddy" inlaid in small
blocks on one side. The handle is
made of apple and has 81 solid
rings, in four sizes, cut out of the
wood, each one separate and solid
piece. This complicated affair was
