story of the basket ball game between
Grand Rapids and Wausau Friday
evening. Even at that the local team
did not play the game it ought and

with satisfaction and is the first de.
cisive victory over Grand Rapids fol-
the past seven or eight years. Grand
Rapids started the game by scoring
a free throw. Wausau then took the
initiative and in few minutes scored
four baskets. For the next ten min
utes the game was rather slow, Wau
sau being unable to put the ball in
the basket although they had numer
Gus shots. Moulke, the Crane
Rapids center, did splendid in throw
ing free throws and out of the five
chances he had during the first half
/ scored all OF them. The first hal
ended with the score 16 to 9.

last half and made less fouls. The
teams braced up showed. flashes of The

 Man Eating Crocodile.
 In Animal Life iu Africa" Is the following curious narrative. which shows the indifference of the natives of East Africa to the sacrifice of hu, man life:
 One morning was standing on the banks Of the Lujenda river. In Portu' guese East Africa. watching. with my friend. Mir. Maughain, our stores cross ing. We had just come to the conclu sion that what We had fancied was the protrudiug nose Of crocodile was in fact. only a piece of rock when a local native. who was standing uear, said. If you will come with me to the village 1 can show you big croco' dfle." Mir Maughan electing to stay Jnd superintend the portcrs across the river. went along with the boy"
 The village in question lay but some 300 yards distant and proved to oe of considerable size aud full of people. who at the moment were in a state of pleasurable and noisy excitement over the arrival of our large caravan. But surely there can he no crocodile here with all this noise going ony' re- marked. "0h. yes" nonchalantly re. piled the guide He lives here and does not mind the people"
 Sure enough. on reaching the bank the first thing saw was a huge croco- dile basking at full length and with his mouth wide open on a rock not more than twenty yards away. He was not in the least disturbed by the chattering of the woineu and children. and there was DO question of stalking him It was only necessary to sit lelsurely down on the bank and put a bullet through his shoulder. when. after shutting and opening his mouth few times. he fell oil the rock and sank like a stone.
 The headman was quite pleased. say ing that the animal took some one. usually a woman or child, at least once a month. Why. them said in astonishment, having noticed that about every second man seemed to be provided with a 6rearm of some sort. "did you not shoot it;~ "Ah, well, we have very little powder. and it is very expensive. and we are poor and re- dulre all we have to kill game" was the surprising though characteristic answer.
