Removal of an old Landmark

The old Van Alstine Hotel building.
known for many years as the Water
town Exchange, was sold Friday to P.
}. Euper for 500, and will be either
torn down or removed from it's present
site within the next two weeks. The
building is the Oldest one now stand
ing In Watertown and it's removal will
take from our sight genuine old land
mark. 1t was built in the summer of
1871 by Isaac Savage who occupied it
as hotel, and was the first building
erected in Watertown on the north side
ofour present Main street. Mr.. Savage
disposed of the house to Edward Gil
man and he kept it as q hotel until he
sold it to j. B. Van Alstine in 1913.
Mr.. Van Alstine continued the owner
and landlord for about forty years. Of
the proprietors and their wives only
one is living, namely Mrs. Gilman VIII O
resides at Denver, Col.
Only eight persons are now among
us who were living in Watertown when
the Savage hotel was built, to wit: Mr..
and Mrs. ]. w. Cole, A. Boomer, Mrs.
Ed. Johnson, Mrs.J. A. Chadwick, Pat
rick Rogan, P. V. Brown and Mrs. John
Gibbs

musical portion of the programme was
rendered by Mrs. A. NJ. Prime, Miss
Lottie Stahl, VIM. Trachte and Jonas
Stahl, members of the Glee club; Max

Their efforts added greatly to the sue
cess and pleasure of the meeting. The
drum corps beat grand finale, while
the audience broke ranks and wendell
their way home. A vote of thanks is
due the 0. D. Pease Post for the even
ing's patriotic enjoyment.

The BeIoit College Concert.

Last Wednesday evenings larger and
more appreciative audience than is
usually assembled at entertainments
in this city greeted the Beloit College
Glee and Banjo clubs at Concordia
Opera house, under the auspices of the
Cambrian club. A fine programme
was given and all acquitted themselves
with credit, each number winning
rounds of applause, calling for encores
which were responded to literally and
with spirit. The choruses were an adj
mirable feature of the concert, being
rendered with fullness, precision and
harmonizing effect that indicated not
only musical culture but perfect train
ing. The songs were all well chosen, be-
ing of popular strain and for the most
part of a cheerful and amusing order.
To most of the audience the banjo and
guitar playing was the crowning part
ofthe concert, and somewhat novel and
new here. The boys certainly handled
these instruments in splendid man
ner, their tones falling upon the ear
with soft and beautiful cadence diff
ficult to describe, the players being well
entitled to the plaudits given to this
part of the programme. Owing to
the unaccountable absence of Mr. Rust
one of the mandolin players, the man.
dolin duet was omitted and a banjo
number substituted.
Taken as a whole no entertainment
ever given here was more truly en-
ioyed, and the members of the organi
zation can be recommended as gentle
men, every one. In this connection
special mention must be made of j. w
Wright, the Watertown representative
in the clubs, whose performances wol
much praise.
At the close of the concert the Cam
brian club rendered the Beloit boys
reception and hop, thus enabling al
who so desired to meet the young gen
tlemen. This was pronounced by al
who remained very enjoyable ant
fitting termination of a delightful even
ing's entertainment, and was no doub
highly appreciated by the collegians.

The G. A. r. Anniversary,

The G.. A. R. anniversary meeting
at Turner Opera house Monday even

siastic audience. It was held under the
auspices of the O. d. Pease Post to
commemorate the organization of the
