The West Main Street bridge has
just been fitted out with new hurri-

Two young ladies living in the First
Ward, near the water works, conclud-
ing they would like panoramic view
of our beautiful city and its surround
ings on Wednesday morning about 8
o'clock proceeded to climb to the plat
form at the top Of the water tower
from which point over 150 feet above
the level of the pumping station; they
satisfied their curiosity. They re-
turned to earth in saety, but it is
doubtful if many will follow their ex-
ample to get the view.
w. C. Fitch of st. Paul, Mimi, was
the guest of the l.. Brockway family
on West Main Street from Saturday
to Monday evening. Mr.. Fitch re-
turned from Manila with the 18th
Minnesota Volunteers, of which regi-

members of the Epworth League and

Hurrah for our football team. Hur-
rahi Saturday afternoon they de-
feated the Milwaukee Academy boys
by score of 1910.
Hereafter we hope that the public
will give good heed to our advertise
ments. Many worthy people of the
place are now expressing the deepest
regret that they did not hear the
"Olympian Orchestra" an opportunity

The first big game of the season at
Wauwatosa was played last Saturday
afternoon at the Crescent Ball Par,
and was won by the High School bows
by a score of 1910. 1t was a good
game as the score indicates and was
attended by several "rooters" and a
good number of spectators. The Mil
waukee Academy team was supposed
to come out, but combination of the
Academy team and East Side PLAYERS
came instead and put up the best game
they knew how, but Wauwatosa was
too much for them Harold Rogers
and Doc Martin put up good game
as did Thieman and Sheriff. Rogers
and Thieman played the halves and
Baltes full, who did some fine line
bucking an made so yard run. Ed
Pavey of the Reds played a fine game
and Chas. Fisher, who played on the
Academy team, did the same. ONLY
one bloody nose and swallowing no
teeth. Oscar Hartung, center. stood
like a second Mosely and all the line
oucking the Academy could gain or
was through the tackles. They could
make no impression at all on Osca,.
who only winked ms eye when thew
banged against him. Fifteen minnie
halves were played. Roy Currie nm
