a Human Cannon Ball

One of the special and big features
with w. H. Couter's Famous Railroad
Shows appearing in our city on Satur-
day, July 22, afternoon and night is the
VIM. O'Brien Troupe of advanced
acrobats. This feature of five people
has just returned from Australia
where it has been for the past five
years, appearing in all the principal
cities of the Antipodes. They reach
the limit of sensationalism and dare
devilness in their new creation when
Naomi, the Human Cannon Ball, .
one of the lady members of the troupe,
is actually fired through space from a
sxteen-inch brass cannon. This is only
one of many wonderful acts to be seen
with w. H. Coulter's Shows. 16

MERCHANTS VS.. PROFESSIONALS
Last Years Game to be Continued on
July 26

On July 26, the greatest base ball
game ever seen on the local diamond
will be played between the Merchants
and the Professional men of Lady
smith. We, who witnessed the agility
of some of the old timers last year
when these teams played, can vouch for
the quality of the stuff the men will
endeavor to produce and everyone
wishing to see genuine base ball
game, with all the dope about ''kill the
ump'' omitted, should arrange their
business affairs SO as to attend this
most spectacular display of rheumatic
agony. Not all of the men who will
compose the teams are thus afflicted,
but we will venture small bet that
some of them will emit groan when
they hit the ball and have to run or
when they see ball coming their
way and feel it their duty to get out of
the way j. A. Mchaelson is captain
of the Professionals, while r. March
will coach the Merchants on the finer
points of the game.
The following is the lineup as near
as we are able to ascertain so far in
advance:

State of Michigan has large park
here. enclosing the old fort, part which
was built by the British over a century
ago. A bronze statue'of Father Mar
quette is at the entrance to the park.
Summer tourists from all over the
world are here and elegant hotels,
numerous souvenir shops and high
prices abound.

ache which had developed by inhaling
too much lake breeze, or by some other
indiscretion, while our boat plowed its
way through the night across the head
of Lake Michigan to Green Bay. We
made few minutes stop at Sister Bay,
a settlement at small inlet at the
north end of the Door county penln-
sula, whose only communication with
the outside world is by boat.
At Sturgeon Bay our boat was met
at the dock by procession of auto
mobiles in charge of the Commercial
Club. They had something good and
they wanted to show US. They drove
us out into the country, where cherry
and apple orchards of various ages
were to be seen on every hand. Cher
ries were just ripening and the pickers
men, women and children-were busy
among the trees. Not in forty years
has frost destroyed the cherry crop of
this favored locality and the young or
chards coming into bearing promise to
make fruit canning factor in contin-
ually enlarging all classes of business
in Sturgeon Bay, besides giving en-
ployment to labor during the canning
season.
From Sturgeon Bay we passed out in
to Lake Michigan again through a ca

shovel. The fumes cause flies to fall
in a stunned condition. They must
then be swept up and destroyed. Best
results are obtained by darkening the
room, allowing only ray of light to en-
ter at edge of window shade. Flies, in
attempting to escape the fumes, will
seek ray of light at windows. This
simplifies their collection.
ELIMINATE BREEDING PLACES OF FLIES
Flies breed in filth.
Allow no filth Or decaying matter of
any kind to accumulate on or near your
premises.
Sprinkle kerosene over garbage and
contents of privy vaults. Keep gar
bage receptacles tightly covered;
clean the cans every day, the boxes at
least every week. Keep the ground
around garbage boxes clean.
Keep manure in screened pit or tight
ly covered vault. Manure should be
removed every week, at least.
Burn all refuse-such as old bedding
paper, straw, etc.
Pour kerosene in the drains. Keep
sewerage system in good order; repair
all leaks Immediately.
Clean cuspidors every day. Keep 5
per cent solution Of carbolic acid IN
them all the time. Get rid of sawdust
boxes used as cuspidors they're in
sanitary.
Permit no dirt to accumulate in cor
ners, behind doors, back of radiators,
under stoves, etc.
Flies in the home indicate careless
housekeeper. Remember: no dirt-no
flies.

TRIP ON The LAKES
WITH THE WISCONSIN PRESS
ASSOCIATION
FROM MILWAUKEE, TO THE 500
Three Days Delightful Outing An
nual Meeting Held in Cabin of
S. S. Arizona

The News Budget man was one of
party of seventy newspaper men ant
their families who enjoyed the outing
of the Wisconsin Press Association thi:
week. This was the most elaborate
excursion planned by the association fol
several years and the first annual meet
ing that we have had the pleasure OF
attending.
The company boarded the S. S. Ari
zona, one of the boats of the Goodrich
Line, leaving Milwaukee Saturday eve
ming at 1890. We touched at Sheboy-
gan in the early morning and at Mani
towoc at a. M Then we crossed the
lake and did not sight the Michigan
shore until after noon, coursing north
eastward toward Mackinac Island,
where we landed at II o'clock Sunday
night, making half hour stop.
From here our course led across the
head of Lake Huron, thence north
through a narrow channel winding
among numerous islands to the Soo
Sometime during the night | was
awakened by the frequent sounding of
our whistle. [ noticed the boat was
not moving and looking out saw a
dense fog. Two hours we laid at an
chor waiting for the fog to raise,
hearing other boats whistling On either
side of US. Though lighthouses and
buovs are stationed at frequent inter-
walls, it was dangerous to move from
our position in the narrow channel.
That same night over on Lake Su-
perior a passenger boat lying at an
chor during the fog was run into by a
big freighter and cut in two and many
lives lost.
We arrived at $50 Monday morning
at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, where we
had only two short hours to stop.
Here is where a large part of the
freight traffic of the Great Lakes pass
es through the locks, which raise or
lower the ships the eighteen feet diff
ference in the level of Lake Superior
and that of Lake Huron. Some of our
party shot the rapids in the river
which is the national boundary. Uncle
Sam has two locks in operation and is
hewing a third one through the rock
to accommodate the constantly increas-
ing traffic. Boats are passed without
toll through either the American or
Canadian locks, regardless of nation
ality.
On our return trip we had a longer
stop at Mackinac Island, arriving be-
fore dark. This is most picturesque
spot and one of historic interest. The

SPEAKING or FLIES
BOARD OF HEALTH ISSUES A
BULLETIN ON THIS PEST
DESTROY ALL SOURCES OF FILTH
These Vermin- How to Get
Rid of Them

Don't allow flies in your house.
Don't permit them near your food
especially milk.
Don't buy foodstuffs where flies are
tolerated.
Don't eat where flies have access to
the food.
Flies are the most dangerous insects
known to man.
Flies are the filthiest of all vermin.
They are born in filth, live on filth and
carry filth around with them. They
are maggots before they are flies.
Flies are known to be carriers of
millions of death-dealing disease germs
They leave some of these germs
wherever they alight.
Flies may infect the food you eat
They come to your kitchen or to your
dining table, fresh from the privy
vault, from the garbage box, from the
manure pile, from the cuspidor, from
decaying animal or vegetable matter,
or from the contagious sick room with
this sort of filth on their feet and in
their bodies, and they deposit it on
your food, and you do swallow filth
from privy vaults, etc, etc, if you eat
food that has come in contact with
flies.
= Flies may infect you with tuberculo-
sis, typhoid fever, scarlet fever, diph-
iberia, and other infectious diseases.
They have the habit of feasting on
tuberculosis sputum and other dis
charges of those sick with infectious
diseases, and then going direct to your
food, to your drink, to the lips of your
sleeping child, or perhaps to a small
open wound on your hands or face.
When germs are deposited in milk they
multiply very fast; therefore milk
should never be exposed to flies.
WHAT TO Do TO GET RID OF FLIES
Screen your windows and doors. Do
it before fly time and keep screens up
until snow falls.
Screen all food, especially milk. Do
not eat food that has been in contact
with flies.
Screen the baby's bed and keep flies
away from the baby's bottle, the
baby's food and the baby's com
forter."
Keep flies away from the sick, es-
pecially those i'll with typhoid fever,
scarlet fever, diphtheria and tuber-
culosis. Screen the patients bed
Kill every fly that enters the sick
room. Immediately disinfect and dis
pose of all discharges.
Catch the flies as fast as they appear
Use liquid poisons, sticky fly papers
and traps.
Place this fly poison in saucers
throughout the house: Two teaspoon
fuls of formaldehyde in pint of water,
sweetened with sugar.
To quickly clear rooms of flies, burn
pyrethrum powder. Sprinkle the pow
