The totals do not jibe with the
figures in the percentage column for
some reason which cannot be ex-
planned here at this time, and it will
require an official report from Pres.
Elliott to clear matters.
Our club is about 81, 600 to the bad
financially. 1t was a bad year for
minor leagues all over the country.
The Wausau team is playing in
Grand Rapids at present, starting
yesterday. The boys play there until
Thursday when they come home and
play Appleton two games. Both
teams then go to Appleton for two
games. Dunbar andsk Fennell pitch
the seven games, including that Of
yesterday.
Johnson and Schieffer have gone to
their homes. Their places are being
filled by Stark and Curtis of the
Winona team.
Appleton won the pennant in the
WI. league, after holding the lead
the greater part of the season. Brady,
McAuley, Buemiller and Gardner, of
Wausau's old pennant winning team,
were largely contributing factors in
Appleton's success.
Lakoff, sold by Wausau to Louis
Vile, has taken part in two games SO
far, but has not illuminated the earth
by his presence. Wausau has 800
and Louisville has Lakoff.
A double header was scheduled
Sunday between Wausau and Winona,
but WAS called at the end of the third
inning of the first game, on account
of rain. Wausau was moving along
nicely at the time and stood a good
chance of winning the game, which
would have given US second place in
the league race. The second game
scheduled for that afternoon was to
be an exhibition affair, arranged to
draw a crowd.
1t is too soon to tell what the plans
for next year will be, but there is
prevailing opinion that chan ? in
the active management of the team,
if we have a team next year, will do
no harm. 1t may help the attend
ance Bond is a gentlemanly little
fellow, personally well liked, but per-
sonality alone don't hold ball players
on team. They must be there with
the pickles. One of the secrets of
good ball playing is to be able to judge
yourself. 1t is for that reason that
so many successful managers of today
are playing the bench. Whatever
faults Mr.. Bond may have he was far
more successful than was Jack Nc
earthly. The latter's record here is
too well known to repeat. We got
rid of the last of his junk when we
tied Roland loose. With the addition
of another pitcher, right fielder and
someone who can play second base
and not go to sleep on the job, Wau-
sau can start out next season with
team which ought to lead the league
throughout the season.

PASTOR RESIGNS.

A meeting of st. Stephens congre-
CATION was held last Sunday, called to
consider matters pertaining to the
church. One of the matters to
come up before the body was the
resignation of the pastor, Rev. F.
Werhahn. Immediate action was
asked and vote was taken with the
result that the resignation was ac-
cepted and the trustees were instruct
ed to seek new pastor
Mr. Werhahn has been pastor OF
the above church for the past twelve
years and has labored energetically
for the upbuilding of his congrega-
tion. He was one of the leading
spirits in raising funds for the build
ing of the congregations new edifice.
He expects to leave soon on trip

BUSINESS COLLEGE OPENED.

The Wausau Business college opened
for the fall enrolment yesterday
morning. 1t is needless to say that
Mr.. Widmer was surprised to see the
great number of new students who
came to enroll for the course of study.
Instead of enrolling ten or dozen as
he expected to do, he filled every seat
excepting three in the assem- bly, room.
This is record breaker in the history
of the institution. Wausau is album
dainty able to boast of the best bust
ness college in the state of Wisconsin
at the present time. We have often
said that Wausau is the best city in
the state, and we feel that the college
is equal to the city. The great num-
Der of young people brought TO the
city each year for the purpose of
securing a business education means
that great amount of money is left
in the channels of trade. We should
give the college credit for doing this
much for the city, as well as giving
the thorough training in business
principles. Hundreds of young men
and women have been graduated from
the institution, and are now enjoying
lucrative positions. With the present
faculty we are sure that the success
of the institution will be greater than
ever bsfore. We beSpeak success for
Mr.. Widmer in his college work, and
we trust that his expectations in erect
ing a college building in the near
future will be realized.

Antiauitx of Shorthand.

Shorthand is ap; to be looked upon
as an essentially modern art. The
predecessors of Pitman-Byrom in the
eighteenth century, Mason In the sew
enteenth-are dim and distant figures
beyond which it seems useless to ven
ture. Cicero dictated his orations TO
his freedman, r. Tullius Trio, and was
inconsolable when temporarily depriv-
ed of his services. He complained In
q letter to a friend that, while "Tiro
takes down whole phrases In few
signs, Spintharus (his provisional sub
stituteJ only writes In syllables." We
need not. however, suppose that the
"notae Tironianae" were actually In
vented by the freedman in question.

ARTHUR e. CHELLIS.

Arthur E. Chellis died at his home
on Z. Mcintosh street Sunday after
noon between the hours CT four and
five. He contracted severe cold
over two years ago which settled on
his lungs and tuberculosis resulted.
In 1908 he went to Colorado and re-
sided in and about Canon City, until
the middle of last May when he came
home. He was very weak when he
arrived home, and three weeks ago
was obliged to remain in bed. From
that time on he failed rapidly. While
in the southwest it appeared at one
time that he would recover, but, alas,
consumption is deceptive disease.
Deceased was the youngest son of
Mrs Bertha Chellis. His father was
Harry Chellis whom everybody in
Wausau knew for a decade. The lat
ter conducted dray business up to
the time of his death some years ago.
Arthur was born Nov. %, 1887. He
was graduated from a graded school
and then took up work as clerk.
At the time his health began to fail
he was a sub mail carrier and stood in
line for promotions which have since
been made. He was quiet, indus
trious young man OF excellent habits,
and during his short career he made
many warm friends.
Besides his mother he is survived
by brother and an adopted sister.
He was beneficiary member of Big
Bull Falls camp No. l19 w. o. w.
The funeral services will be held to-
morrow afternoon at two o'clock from
the Episcopal church. The rector,
Rev. FIR. w. <. Johnson, will otficiate.

knife struck rib and was prevented
from entering the vitals. On the

FARMERS PICNIC AND
DEMONSTRATION MEETING

G. p. Norgord, Prof. of Agronomy
of the state university will be at the
grounds of the Marathon county
asylum on Friday, Sept. 18th, to talk
to the farmers and demonstrate to
them various interesting things and
principally upon the treatment and
care of seed corn and alfalfa. He will
be ready to answer any question
which may be asked of him, concern
ing matters pertaining to farming.
He was here last year at the asylum
grounds and talked to about 100
farmers Of this county on general lines
and especially pedigreed grains.
Joseph Roehl, superintendent CT the
asylum secured seed corn from quite
a number of our farmers last spring.
He planted twenty-five hills with this
corn keeping track of that which he
received from each man. He planted
three seeds in each hill and twenty
five hills to each row. Some of the
corn never grew at all showing that
the farmer knew nothing about test
ing corn to secure good results. The
seed from one farmer showed good
results. Out of Is seeds, IS stalks
were grown. This test will be taken
up by Prof. Norgord and he will tell
the farmers where they have made
their mistakes. Mr.. Roehl has
planted from pedigreeG seed forty
three acres of corn. Every kernel
produced a stalk and it is one of the
incest lots of corn that has been grown
in Marathon county this year. This
field of corn will be shown the farmers
who attend this meeting. 1t viii be
an interesting and an instructive
meeting and yourself and family are
invited to attend this farmers picnic.

was in 1864 by its inventor, Otto Won

Ferdinand of Germany. Guericke APP

metallic hemispheres. two feet in d.
ameter. to each other. After exhaust
ing the air by his apparatus he at

sphere. In vain did they attempt to
separate them because of the enor-

experiment was a great success.

NEGRO AS ASST.
ATTY GENERAL
Former Harvard Football Player
Gets Fat Federal
Berth.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-President
Taft, it was stated today, has decided
to appoint a negro to the highest Oh
flee in an executive branch of the gov
eminent ever held by a member Of
that race.
William II. Lewis, at present an as
sistant district attorney at Boston. is
to be made an assistant attorney gen
eral of the United States.
The appointment has been agreed
upon by the President and Attorney
General Wickersham. Just what duties
will be- assigned to the new assistant
when he takes office have not been de-
cided.
Lewis is a graduate of Amherst and
Harvard and played on the Harvard
football team as centre rush. He vas
regarded as one OF the best players in
that position ever at the Cambridge
university.
The appointment of Lewis is in lint
with President Taft's policy of recog-
nizing negroes in the government serv-
ice, but, taking these appointments as
far as possible out of the Southern
States, where friction has been caused
in the past by negro federal office
holders.

MAN WHO DRANK
ACID WILL FACE
B|GAMY CHARGE
Lawyers Identity WouId-be Sui
eide as Party Who Mar
ried Two Women.

Guy Brooks, 2S years old, who is
where he was taken late Saturday eve
ming, after drinking carbolic acid in a
boarding house at 1856 Plane street, will
upon his release face a charge of
bigamy, according to lawyers who
visited him at the hospital today and
identified him as the man who married
Miss Elizabeth Thrach Morton, of
Manasquan. about a year ago. The
attorneys, Lloyd C. Riddell and James
H. Chapman, both of Manasquan. ap-
peared before Acting Judge Oehring in
the Second Precinct Police Court and
produced certified records of Brooks's
previous marriage to a Miss Hastings
in Michigan several years ago.
The attorneys further said that with
in a few week after he contracted the
alleged bigamous marriage with the
Manasquan girl he deserted her and
was net heard of again until it became
known he was in the hospital here,
suffering from the effects of having
drunk carbolic acid. The lawyers were
advised to start the proceedings against
Brooks in Manasquan.
Although apparently Brooks drank
the poison with suicidal intent. he in
sists hat it was accidental. Accord
ing to his story he was smelling of the
poison when a girl who also lived in
the Plane street house struck the bot
tie with her hand, throwing some of the
contents into his mouth.

EPISCOPAL BISHOP
ASSIGNS REV. Mr.
TULIP TO PARISH
Pastor Who Repudiated Re-
formed Church Faith Is Sent
to HaCkensack.

The Rev. A. Peter TULIP. a former
pastor of the New York Avenue Re
formed Church, in this city, has been
named by Bishop Edwin S. Lines, of
the Newark Episcopal diocese, as the
successor of the Rev. DIR. w. w. Hol-
ley, as rector of Christ Episcopal
Church, Hackensack. The forsaking of
the Reformed doctrine and the accept
ance of the Episcopal faith by the
Rev. Mr.. Tulip. while officiating as
pastor of the local church over a year
ago, created quite a furore in local de-
nominational circles.
DR.. TULIP is a graduate of the New
Brunswick Reformed Theological Sem
mary and was a leading member of the
divinity class. When he suddenly an
nounced thai a new spiritual light had
dawned, a belief hat the Episcopal
doctrine was the truest conception of
Biblical teachings, his tutors at the
old seminary, and his brother CO.
workers in the Reformed and Presby-
terrain vineyards. were visibly shocked.
Nevertheless, DIR. Tulip rendered his
resignation to the board of the New
York Avenue Reformed Church and it
was accepted. For the past year, as a
deacon in h Episcopal faith, and as
a candidate for holy orders, he has
been officiating as curate of st. Paurs
Church, Englewood. In a few weeks
he will be ordained to the priesthood,
and several noted clergymen will take
part in the service.
