De ath of n. S Huse.

Hiram S. Huse. who was a resident
Of this vicinity from 1874 to 1869, died
August 81 at the home of his son, II. A .
Huse. in Montpelier, Vt. Deceased was
born III New Hampshire, October 26,
1906, and in 1914 came to Wisconsin,
locating in Lebanon, Dodge county,
which town be named after Lebanon.
\. H. He continued to reside in that
town until 1855, and during part OF the
time be worked in this city, making it
his home during the winter Of 1S49-50,
and also from 1861. In the latter
year he located at Hustisford, where he
stayed until 1869, returning then to
Vermont. During his residence here
Mr.. Huse gained an extensive acquaint-
ance, but no doubt most of his contem-
poraries have preceded him to the other
world, leaving him to be remembered
by only few of our present inhabi-
tants. In mis- obituary The Montpelier
Watchman and Journal of September 4
paid him this tribute:
Mr. Huse had a mind of great native
refinement and strength. He was a
man of rare personal qualities, absolute
~ genuine, simple and democratic, yet
unfinchingly demanding for himself
and his friends the same Difference he
was ready to yield to others Having

THE WILL is VALID,
Testament of John w. Cole So Decided
by Judge Bennett.

by Judge Bennett.
After having the matter under advise
ment for several months Judge Ben
nett, of the circuit court, on Monday
at Jefferson handed down his decision
in the John w. Cole will case. He
finds the will valid, and thus the city
of WatertoWn is made the beneficiary
of an estate amounting to nearly $780,
GOO for the purpose of establishing var
lous public institutions, as directed in
the testament. The property is nearly
all realty, and the provisions of the
will, as is generally known, are that a
certain portion Of it shall be sold at the
death OF the legal heirs for the erection
and maintenance of public library
and business mems club; that the farm
north Of the city is to be set apart and
maintained for a public driving park
and agricultural grounds; that twenty
acres in the Seventh ward are to be
used for a home for the aged and poor
people of Watertown, and that the
homestead in the First ward is to be
adapted for the purpose ofan old ladies'
home. Provision is also made for the
maintenance of these institutions.
The terms of the will give to the legal
heirs Of the testator-Eliza c. Cole, his
wife, and Oscar S. Cole, his son-the
use OF this estate during their lives.
Thus the bequests, with the exception
Of the old ladies' home, will not be
available until after the death of the
heirs. A pecnliar provision of the will
is to the effect that. in the event
of the refusal of the CITY to accept
the bequests the trustees shall sell the
property for the benefit Of the heirs.
Owing to the many complications and
odd features of the will, the executors
last spring brought suit for a construc-
ton of the will by the court, in which
1t was stated that the time having ar
rived for the division of the proper
ty, and the city having declined to
accept the endowment, it should be
divided among the heirs The city
authorities made answer that the city
had not refused the property, as no
deeds had as yet been offered. The
case will undoubtedly be taken to the
supreme court.

THE SITE CHOSEN.
1T Is the Globe MilI-Another Step Tia ken
for Waterworks.

At the meeting of the common coun-
Gil last evening the selection Of site
for waterworks was made, the Globe
Milling companv's plant on First street
being the one chosen, The price of
the property is to be $8, 900, and all the
milling machinery will be removed.
There has been considerable Of a fight
over the decision of this matter, all
parties offering sites being anxious to
sell, but it is hoped the question has
been amicably settled. The report of
the waterworks committee, signed by
all members except Alderman Wood
ard, and adopted by the council, is as
follows:
To the Common Council:
The Undersigned. from your special
committee on WaterWOrks, beg leave to
report to your honorable body that we
nave bad under consideration the To-
cation OF q site for the same and after
much deliberation have arrived at the
following conclusion. Five sites have
received attention, upon which, as es-
tlmated by Engineer Morgan, the plant
would range IN cost from Sl02,9ll fUr
the lowest to $ll4,S62 for the highest.
The former is known as the Kennedy
property near the Junction. While
some of the committee favored this
selection, vet it was found impossible
to secure the co operation of enough
members to constitute a majority. We
there lore have deemed il wise tojoin in
Il recommendation for the Globe mill
site which we believe VIII give most
satisfaction. While nominally $4 500
dearer than the Kennedy site, vet the
difference is almost If not entirely
wiped out by the advantages the form
ef possesses over the latter In the smoke
stack. foundation walls, brick, excaya-
tions which would be useful in building
reservoir, and water PRIVILEGES, all of
which can be utilized leaving out of the
question the fact that better head OF
water by several eet. from arteSian
wells, can be obtained there than at a
higher point. The location is central,
and with a frontage of 532 feet there is
ample room for the pumping station,
large reservoir, and all buildings that
may be required in the future. The
premises can be made a credit to the
city, and considering that but one water
works plant will ever be built here, it
is not desirable, IN the opinion OF your
committee. to take an Indifferent site
IN preference to one that shall more
generally meet with public favor, even
though thousand or two dollars might
be saved in SO doing, The people If
this city are neither poor nor niggard-
". They are opposed To profigacy in
public expenditures and SO is your
committee, but the taxpayers in Wa
tertown With an assessed valuation of
nearly two million dollars will never
know by the difference in their taxes
which of the two sites was chosen; and
If they do they will be more satisfied,
because they will have among tie at
fractions of the city a waterworks plant
at once the pride and glory of us all We
therefore recommend to the council
the adoption of the accompanying reso-
luton.
