FOOT BALL TEAM
GETTING A LINE-UP FOK THE
GAMES TO BE PLAYED
Plenty of Good Material From
Whxh to Pick a Team—Will
Practice So As to Sustain Repu
tation of University—A Brilliant
Foot Hall Season Is Anticipated
Un Sept. 4, immediately after the
opening of the ’Varisty, football prac
tice was begun at the N. W. U., when
in response to the call of Capt. Zeia
ler over thirty candidates appeared on
the field. The first practice was spent
in a general “breaking in” of the
new material, falling on the ball and
tackling.
Though somewhat I'ght, the outlook
for turnnig out a good team is as
bright as it ever has been. Of the
old team all the members have returned
with the exception of Kowalke, the
star fullback, and Behn, the heavy
and reliable guard. Though these
two vacancies will be primarily felt
in no small degree, there is but little
doubt that the new material will give
proper satisfaction in filling the empty
places. Mahnke, last year’s right
tackle, having sustained slight inter
nal injuries in tho form of a strain in
practice tackling will be compelled to
quite the ranks of the eleven. A stur
dy linesman, good at carrying the ball,
his loss will be severely felt. Henry
Zeisler and Peterman, bo b of whom
have been effective players during the
past year will not play owing to
parental objections. The remainder
of the team is at present in a good
nhysicai condition and with the aid of
speed promise to overcome the disad
vantage iu weight. Paul Zeisler, who
was unable to play last year having
sustained injuries in the leg during
the Ripon game is again in trim,
and will play his old position. His
work at quarterback having always
been well-nigh faultless, his reenter
ing the team will be a great source of
help in every respect, especially the
long quarterbaek run in which he has
in fhe jinsr been very effective. Hass
and E. Berg with three years of ex
perience in the ’Varsity eleven will
again held their positions as tackles.
The avoidupois combined with the
agility of both will be a great aid to
the strength of the line. D robst and
Hoffmann, tho ends ot last year, will
retain their old positions. As to the
center trio, Capt, Zeisler is as yet
undecided. Deno, a former Kaukauna
High player with a weight of 190 lbs,
is a promising candidate for center.
Eichmann, Reinemann and Hanke. all
of whom have been doing noteworthy
work during the past year, are being
tried for guards. The back line has
boon subjectel to almost a complete
change. A. Berg, whose tackling
throughout the last year’s tootball
season was of the first class, a speedy
and steady player, has been selected
to till the vacancy casued oy Kowalke.
The last year’s fast work of L. Zeisler
at quarterhacK secured for him the
position of right half while Dahlmann
will again play left half. Though
subject to change at any time the
above will be the preliminary line-up
for the practice games. A. Breg,
Deno or Dahlmann will do the punting
and place kicking.
Capt. Zeisler is sparing no efforts
to make the team a good one and the
principal rules of physical training are
being closely followed. Two hours of
a hard daily practice are followed by
a cold bath and rubdown.
Last week Mgr. Bergman went to
MilwauKee where he purchased four
teen new union suits of the latest pat
tern. The suits are expected in the
near future and will be shipped from
Philadelphia.
The second team is also busy and
unc'er the management of (Japt. Koch
will undoubtedly turn out a good team.
Nearly all of its old members have
returned and the second eleven prom
ises to make the scrimmages with the
regulars hotly contested.
An increase of eighty new students
at the N. W. U. has made it necessary
to engage two new Ftofesscrs, Prof.
Moussa of Burlington and Prof.
Schlueter of Kingston formerly of
Watertown. The latter has not as yet
arrived but is expected in the near
future.
A Senior Class Octette has recently
been organized. At the present rate
of progress it can only meet with suc
cess since all members are more or
less experienced singers. Following
are the members:— Ist Tenor: Paul
Zeisler, Paul Bergmann; 2nd Tenor;
Gerhard Pieper, Alex Sitz; Ist Bass:
Sigmund Prohst, William Hass; 2nd
Bass: Herbert Schaller, Adolph
Pankow.

work can be done. Give us your next
order and be convinced as to work and
prices.

A Grewsome Find
Tuesday morning, the people of the
Sixth ware in this city were horrified
by the finding of tne dead body of a
female child which was dragged by a
cat to the residence of a resident in
that ward who notified the police of
the grewsome find. The appearance
of the remains indicate that the child
had been born alive not to exceed
twelve hours prior to the finding of
the body. A postmortem was held
during the afternoon at the city
morgue by Drs. Sbinnick and Feld
and the conclusion reached that the
infant was born alive, but as the lungs
were missing no definite diagnosis
could be reached. An inquest jury
was summoned by Justice Henze, con
sisting of Dan Ryan, August Hoefs.
F. A. Meyer, W. H. Myer, William
Laabs and N. Schwersen, Wednesday
forenoon, but the inquest was post
poned two weeks to ferret out the
matter and find the guilty party,
A Quiet Wedding
Yesterday afternoon at 2 o’clock,
occurred the marriage of Miss Ida
Lueck of this city and Mr. William
Wickert of South Bend, Washington
county. Wis., the ceremony being per
formed by the Rev. H. Stertz, pastor
of the Protestant Evangelia! chuich
at the parsonage. The bride was at
tended by Misi Wickert, a sister of
the groom and the groom by Mr. F.
Rusz and the wedding march played bv
Mr. E. Stertz. The happy couple
will reside on a farm on the Juneau
road near Clyman and their friends
wish them much happiness and pros
; perity.
Same Old Cry.
“This is a democratic year!” It is
the same old cry we have heard, lo!
these many years. The same old party
with anew set of ideas furnished
every quaternary period since 1896
by a man to keep himself in the spot
light as an advertisement tor Chau
tauqua engagements. It is one of
the marvels of the age, that sensible
men can take him seriously and think
for a moment that the voters of this
country will elect him to the presi
dency.
Should be Mutual.
It is a good thimr for Watertown
people to stand by Watertown candi
dates—but. it should not be like a jug
handle, all on one side. A little ex
change of political courtesy on local
candidates might be to the advantage
of Watertown —but what is the use of
talking, there is no such wo;d in the
vocabulary of the democrats in this
city.
New Residence.
The editor of The Leader noticed in
one of the Milwaukee newspapers,
that Architect Otto Uehling of that
city was preparing plans and specifi
cations for a $3.C0(1 residence to be
erected in this city for Dr. F. C.
Werner.

Opinion of Democrat.
United States Senator Stephenson
won a decisive victory over the com
bined La Fillette forces at the prim
ary election. This result is pleasing
to all inUlligent, and fairminded
citizens ind. pendent of party. The
entire l a Fcllettc press and every
member of the La Follette “machine’’
were maliciously assailing the Senator
and using every means in their power
to nominate Mr. Hatcan. It did look
as though the “old pioneer” was
doomed to be another victim to the
self-seeking ingra ( e. But the “plain
peepul” are disgusted with “La Fol
letteism.” Th y have hoisted the
“Buss” with his own petard —his pet
primary; and the influence of “Boss
Bob” is at an end in Wisconsin.
The electors of the state have com
plied with the primary law, and ex
pressed their choice for United States
Senator. It only remains fur the leg
islature to carry out the will of the
people and return Mr. Stephenson to
the U. S. Senate. Courier. (Dem.)

The Milwaukee Free this
morning credits the following ccm
ment to the Daiiv Times:
“Hepublicanism stands today for
progressive policies in safe hands. By
solving the constructive problems of
world power in the last two adminis
trations, William H. Taft taught the
world our capacity and us his own. —
Watertown Times.”
Such a sentiment was never ex
pressed by the Times. The political
exchange should get busy and give the
credit to whom it belongs. It don’t
fit us. —Watertown Times.
We knew that the editor of the
Times would kick when he saw the
article credited to the Times—and he,

File our Statements.
There seems to be a prevailing im
pression among candidates for party
nominations, that the law requiring
candidates to make and file sworn
statements of their expenses, applies
only tu candidates at elections. This
is a mistake. By chapter 502, Laws
of 1905, every candidate for nomina
tion must within thirty days after the
election, make and file with the regis
ter of deeds and also with the officers
issuing the certificate of election, a
sworn statement of all moneys and
property in excess of five dollars, dis
bursed by him or by any one for him
in aid of his candidacy and election,
and it is made a misdemeanor to fail
to make and file such a statement.
Fires
The fire department was called out
Wednesday afternoon the alarm being;
occasioned by a fire in the gasoline
house of Ed. Burnff on North Third
street. Not much damage done.
A barn anu granary on the farm of
Michael McCarthy four miles south of
the city on the Farmington road was

The cause of the fire is a mystery and
the loss is quite a heavy one tor Mr.

The editor of the Kice Lake Times
asks the following question: “When

Suppose by dint of hard work and close economy you at last get $3OOO
ahead. What are you going to do with it V is it your ambition to have a
good farm of your own ?
Suppose you buy U5O acres at $lOO per acre, pay your 13000 down and
give a mortgage for the balance $1,300 at 5 per cent. How long will it
take you to lift that mortgage?
Your interest would be $1550 per year, and to this you would have to
add at least $2OO for insurance, taxes and repairs. That’s $B5O you must
pay above the expenses of supporting your family. Now you will be doing
well if you can succeed in reducing your debt $5OO per year. And how
Slong will it take you to pay for your farm ? Twenty-six years.
Rut suppose you have bad luck, or sickness, or crops fail, so that you '
n can’t even pay your interest. What will you do then ?
§ Or suppose you die; can your widow and children keep up the pay-
I merits and save the farm ? You know they can’t.
§ Face the Situation Squarely. $lOO-an-acre is out of the question.
I What then? Why, move to a locality where land is as good or better, and
I is much cheaper. There, your $3OOO would pay for H5O acres, and you need
B fear no man. You won’t be troubled with a mortgage hanging over your
■ head. If you die, your family will be taken care of. The farm will rent
S for enough to provide them with a good living.
-- Show The courage that your fathers did when they left the old coun
a try, and go where land is one-fifth of the price of home land. Instead of
I $lOO an acre, pay $25 for land that will be double in value in a short time.
I Land values are increasing rapidly. Don’t Pi t It Off. Talk it over
