ing what might be termed fair house.
The company is fortunate in the possession
of Miss Louise Sylvester who has great
versatility Of talent, and plays to perfection
all she undertakes. She is pleasing,
piquant, vivatious, spnghtly and, what's
more, a most natural actress, and is on the
sure road to acquire fine reputation in her
profession. It is conceded that no finer act
ing than her Fanchon has, ever been seen
in this city. Taken as whole, the COM
pany is better than travelling troupes will
average, and the business manager, Nj. J.
Whitley is gentlemanly and enterprsing.
The company went from here to Oshkosh,
where we hope they are finding good paying
houses.

Clean Up.

That the cholera has already appeared
this season in New Orleans and Memphis
admits of no doubt, and considerable alarm
is felt by the citizens of St. Louis, Chicago,
Milwaukee, and other cities of the west,
lest the pestilence may visit these places.
Prepa ra,ions are being made for it's advent
by clearing up the foul filth which is the
great feeder to this dreaded disease. We
trust our city will waste no time in taking
the precautionary measures necessary to
prevent the cholera from making its ap-
pearance in our midst and that the laws Of
cleanliness will be observed as far as posi-
BILE. To this end it would be well to ia
stitute at once general system of clearing
up all rubbish and debris to be found in
yards, alleys and streets. We by no means
wish to infer that Watertown is a dirty
place, for on the contrary we believe that
IN point of cleanliness and neatness she
will bear comparison with many of her sister
cities, but we do claim that there is great
deal yet TO be done before we have right
to be considered the cieanest city
in the state. Let the work of cleaning be
commenced before it is too late.

Boating.

Mr.. George P. Mathes has just launched on
the river we'll prorortioned and Hastily
built four-oared shell boat, the work of his
own hands. Its length is 30 feet, width rs
inches, depth 8 inches, and weighs l25
pounds. The oars are of the lapse stroke
style. This boat is a thing OF beauty and
will make fun for the boys the present
season. We hope the example set by Mr.
Mathes will be followed by others, and
that before the close of the season we shall
see other boats launched on our waters. The
river here affords a fine pull, and we-see
no reason why there should not be well
organized boat club ia our midst. Let our
young men take this matter in hand. Row
ing affords healthy exercise, and fine
amusement.

A Murderess.

Mrs. Lamb, the noted Wisconsin Borgia,
convicted of poisoning to death two of her
own children, and two of her neighbors in
Pierce county, and sentenced to the State
Prison for life, passed through this city last
Wednesday for Waupun, in charge of the
Sheriff. To suffer the penalty commensu-
ate with her crimes this fend in the shape
of a woman would require to have four
lives. In connection with the four persons
she is known to have poisoned, there is
very strong suspicion resting upon her that
she poisoned Der husband and two friends
in Vermont before coming west She is
person of medium height, flight complexion
and hair, and about forty years OF age.
She has a terrible look of mingled vlndlc-
tiveness, cupdity, low cunning and crafti-
ness and appears restless and agitated in
manner This woman is probably the
worst culprit that the State Prison has ever
had within its portals, and it is to be hoped
that she may fud refuge there during the
term of her natural life.

The Promise.

The present season, beyond all others
within our recollection, has been particu-
larly favored with timely and copious show
ers, coming just at the right time, and fall
ling so gently as to be wholly absorbed by
the earth, gl eatly bene6tting vegetation,
and bringing growth along with ex-
ceeding rapidity. 1t is remarked that, not
withsta nding the season started in late,
nearly every thing is as Toward now as at
this time last year. A season OF unusual
promise is surely upon US, and let US hope
that our present anticipations may be more
than realized

paid back for losees about 5000. They set
about investigating the history of town ID
surance in other States and found that it had
been tried successfully in New Jersey and

in one instance in this state. They also
found that about 60 per cent. of every dol
lar:paid to stock or mutual insurance COM
panies, went to pay salaries, Office expenses,
agents commissions, and expenses other
than losses and profits to stock holders.
They then organized their company, under
the general law of 1871, by the provisions of
which any person who takes insurance in
whatever amount becomes stock holder in
the company to the amount of his or her in
surance.
