Department Of Sports
Defeated by Bessemer

The Washburn base ball team was
defeated by the fast Bessemer, Mich.
team on the home grounds last Sun
day afternoon, the score at the close
of the contest being ten to four.
The locals started off in the first
frame with one score TO their credit
while uthe visitors were given "a
blank. Until the sixth inning it
looked as If Washburn might win
the contest but in that inning the
visitors crossed the plate six times,
bringing their score up to ten. This
was accomplished on nice hit and
some lid throws on the part of the
local boys. In the seventh inning
Washhurn managed to get the bases
full and Tim Burke came up to
bat and made nice drive down in
to right field. The three players
made the round of the bases
and crossed the home plate
when the umpire called the ball a
foul. The Bess emer third baseman
had kicked the third bag out of line
and this deceived the umpire and
the locals were cheated out of the
three runs.
1t was a good game all through
with the exception of the sixth inn.
ing when the visitors run in their
six scores. Manning's boys are
demons trating that they are able to
put up fast game and they are be-
ing given better support by the base
ball fans.

The great and good work of these
doctors in the Northwest during
the past three years has gained for
them standing that places them in
the high rank of specialism and mer.
its for them the most implicit con-
idence in every vicinity they have
visited in the state.
The United Doctors, with Labora-

Minnesota, are the Doctors that
began in Wisconsin over two years
ago; you no doubt have heard of
them, possibly know them personal
ly through treating you, or some of
your family, If not ask your neigh
bors about them.
These United Doctors have no con-
nections with other United Doctors
that have recently begun in Wiscon-
sin and are endeavoring to work up
practice upon their reputation.
The Doctors that constitute this
organic ltion of specialists were Sc
lected from different parts of the
country and are Medical Specialists
of ability and success. The sole OBJ
ject in view, when organizing, that
each one might be benefited and en-
lightened by the experience of the
others which naturally of course is
true, and has led them to success
which is shown by their many cures
of diseases OF the stomach, iutes-
tines, liver. blood, skin, graduated
eyelids, nerves. heart, spleen, kid
neys or bladder, rheumatism, dropsy
ulcers, weak lungs, and those affiict
ed with long standing, deep seated,
chronic diseases, that have baffied
the skill of the family physician,

According to their system no

successful treatment of these
dangerous diseases.

eat. After obtaining food he asked
Mr.. Griffith to be allowed to change
his clothes there, and taking off a
suit of good clothes, be put on a
pair of overalls, and leaving the
good clothes there he struck foi' the
woods. Mr.. Griffith reported the
matter to the authorities here but
nothing further was heard or seen
until Tuesday when he appeared at
Dougal McLain's place at Slow
bridge. BY that time he had rid
himself of his shoes and stockings,
and the appearance of the man gave
Mrs. McLain, who was home alone
at the time, pretty bad scare.
The insane man then procee dec to
Jos. Depta's place and Mr.. Depta
took him in and cared for him until
Officer Beaton went out to get him
that evening.
The unfortunate man gave his
name as f. L. Holmes, and said that
