MILWAUKEE. 



Trade was quiet last week, being 

 probably the after effects of the car- 

 nival. 



Some life, however, was exhibited 

 the latter part of the week when about 

 ten "fellers" came up from Chicago to 

 stimulate things a little bit. Guess 

 they came up to bowl, at any rate they 

 had their own way about it, no matter 

 what they were after. They did some 

 bowling with about an equal amount 

 of men on each side, but in place of 

 bowling they juggled with us. As the 

 Chicago boys took the scores with 

 them the writer has no records to send 



and hopes they have lost theirs. The 

 feature of the game was the splendid 

 delivery of Ben Gregory, which was 

 envied by some of the light-footed 

 ones on the Chicago team. It's a new 

 step in which he will make his debut 

 at Detroit. John Evans was benched 

 after the second game, for bowling in 

 Chicago's favor. We owe many thanks 

 for the Chicago boys' visit. It started 

 the boys a-rolling and we will now 

 have a winning team at Detroit. 



After the games lunch was served 

 and Messrs. McKellar, Winterson, Bal- 

 luf and Asmus entertained with songs 

 and funny stories until train time.
