GREAT BASE BALL GAMES.

Every man and boy who has a
speck of base ball enthusiasm in him
is at present watching the struggle
b9UWeen New York of the National
league and Philadelphia of the Amer
lean LEAGUE for the worlds champion
ship. Up to the present honors are
even, each having won a game. The
crowds which have been turning out
to the games are so immense that
thousands of people could not get adj
mission to the grounds. In the other
contests between the two Chicago
teams, the two. st. Louis teams and
Cincinnati and Cleveland, the Amer
lean league has slipped one over on
the Nationals. In Chicago over 30, 600
people have turned out to the games.
At number of places in Wausau tel
egraphic bulletins of the games are
received while they are being played.
Another sporting event which is
attracting the attention of Wausau
people is the coast to coast fight of
Chas. P. Rogers. Starting from New
York City his machine has carried
him across the country as far west as
Oklahoma, distancing the fight made
during the summer by Harry Atwood,
who established worlds record.

THE CEMETERY GATEWAY.

Several sketches of the cemetery
gateway from various artists have
been received by the ladies having
the work in charge. 1t is the opinion
that an. old English style will be
selected, but that snot fully decided.
The ladies in charge think it
better to commence operations in the
spring. They have engaged O. e.
Simmonds, a landscape gardener Of
Chicago to come here Thursday to lay
out the grounds. He has been recon-
mended as one of the best landscape
gardener in this country. They propose
to have this gateway a permanent
ornament to our city and therefore
are preparing to have it built right.
The subscription list is growing and
it is expected that enough will be
secured to pay for the gateway by the
time the contract is let. The cost
will be in the neighbOrhOod of six or
seven thousand dollars. 1t has been
a long, tedious wait TO secure the
plans, but now that they are here the
committee can work to some purpose.

A crew of men has been at work
for some time getting the under
ground cables in, and now that this
work is completed, they are being
connected with the main Office as
fast as the overhead cables are
being taken down. In about six
weeks all overhead cables on Fourth
and Scott streets will be down. This
morning the crew was busy erecting
a large pole at the foot of Scott street
from which all cables going to the
west side will be run to the conduits.
All line cables are being run into the
new telephone building, and it is ex-
pected that by the first of January the
central office will be in working order
in the new location.
The handsome new telephone build
ing will be completed and ready for
occupancy by Jan. 1st. John Anderes,
the builder, is rushing things, and the
plastering will be finished in another
week.
The company has just issued a new
directory which will be in the hands
of all subscribers by tomorrow.

w. L. SMITHIES HERE
SUNDAY.
Talked at the Y. NJ. c. A. and NJ. e.
Church on the Men and Religion
Forward Movement.

Last Sunday two well attended and
interesting meetings were held in the
interests of the Men and Religion
Forward Movement. Mr.. w. L.
Smithies, of Duluth, who is chairman
of the committee of $50 business and
professional men who have charge OF
the campaign in that city, gave two
very instructive and interesting ad,
dresses, one at the Y. NJ. G. A. in the
afternoon, and the other at a union
meeting at the M. E. church in the
evening, concerning the movement
and the plans which are to be used in
carrying it out. 1t is a movement
within the churches of the nation
and is being participated in by the
following organizations which will
show how broad movement it is
The Brotherhood of Andrew and
Phillip.
The Baptist Brotherhood.
The Congregational Brotherhood OF
America.
The Brotherhood of Disciples of
Christ.
The Gideons Commercial Travellers
The international Sunday School
Association.
The international Committee of
Young Mems Christian Association.
The Lutheran Brotherhood.
The Methodist Brotherhood.
The Otterbein Brotherhood.
UNITED Brethren church,
The Presbyterian Brotherhood OF
America.
The Brotherhood of st. Andrew.
The United Presbyterian Brother
hood.
1t has for it's object the interesting
to larger degree than ever the men
of the nation in the church of Christ
and getting men to accept Jesus
Christ as their Savior and Lord.
Campaigns are already planned for So
central cities in which eight day cam
paigns will be crrried on for the pur-
pose of arousing the men of those
cities to their opportunities and in
structing them in methods of work.
These campaigns will be carried on
by teams of experts and will include
five lines of work: work for boys,
social, service, Bible study, evangelis-
tic work and missionary work. 1t is
not an organization but concerted,
nation wide movement for yitalizing
the forces already at hand. Support
is being accorded it by the press in a
very large degree and it promises to
be one of the notable religious move
ments of the times. Plans were laid
for organizing the movement in this
city and meeting will be called next
Sunday at four o'clock in the Y. M.
G. A. for that purpose. 1t is hoped
that every church will be represented.

The PILOT has received volume one,
No. l, of new magazine just issued
in Milwaukee, it's editors being Thorn
as j. Sullivan and Edgar T. Wheelock,
two able and well known writer's of
Wisconsin. The purpose of the maya

lentless opposition to trade centraliza-
tion. 1t is avery interesting publica-
ton of $50 pages, contains articles
that are of interest to everybody and
the makeup and illustrations are
equal to the best, especially the colored
pictures of street scenes in Beaver

THE PATTY LECTURE.
On Radium, Liquid Air and Wireless
TelegraphY, at the N. E. Church
Oct. 27.

One of the most intensely interest
ing and Illuminating lectures that
has ever been given in the city is
booked for the near future at the
Methodist church. 1t will be
given by Prof. VIM. B. Patty upon
the subjects of Radium, Liquid Air
and Wireless Telegraphy. Prof. Patty
is already favorably known here hav-
ing given a lecture some years ago
upon liquid air at the opera house
which is well remembered by those
who heard it. These three subjects
belong to the fairyland of science, and
will be explained in language that is
without technical terms and illus
trated by numberless experiments.
Radium is one of the greatest sensa-
lions of science. Itgives off heat and
energy and seemingly is not in the
slightest degree diminished. 1t will
take photograph through u inches
of wood, six inches of steel or at the
bottom of trunk. Its rays have an
initial velocity of 100000 feet per sec
ond. 1t is worth 5000, 900 dollars per
pound. Prof. Patty has several speci-
mems and will show various expert
ments and will send one through the
audience for examination under the
microscope. With the wireless he
will ring BELLS start motors, fire can
non and light lamps; full wireless
station will be in full operation in
view of the audience. Liquid air is
common air reduced to a liquid by
the application of intense cold. 1t
bOils on ice, freezes mercury and does
many other marvellous things. The
date of the lecture is Friday, October
9th, and no doubt those wishing
good seats will be obliged to reserve
them at an early date.
