7 he Concordia Concert.

That Watertown has in her midst
some very excellent musical talent, of
which she may we'll feel proud, was
emphatically evidenced in the delight
full concert given by the Concordia So
ciety last Friday evening. The opera
house held only small audience, the
weather no doubt interfering with the
attendance, but those who were there
greatly enjoyed the tasty program and
felt that they had been entertained
exceptionally we'll. It was essentially
a vocal concert, there being a single
instrumental number-one of Chopln's
waltz movements for piano exquisitely
rendered by Miss Josephine Buchhelt,
who displayed ease, grace and taste in
her execution and a fine quality of
tone. Che society's male chorus ap-
peared three times during the even
ing, giving some numb bers prepared for
the Dubuque saengerfest. Under Mr..
Forane's able guidance the chorus
continues to improve, it's work Fri
day evening, we think, being the best
we have yet heard it accomplish.
Mrs. G. r. Field was heard to excellent
advantage in two charming little bal
lads, ore with violin sobligato by A.
Hdrdege. She was at her best, her
enunciation and expression and her
rich tone affording perfection to ber
rendition that completely captivated
the audience. Mrs. Field shows the quail
ltles of the true artist, highly schooled.
The other singers who contributed to
the program-M Lizzie Ruesch,
Edward i. Schempf and William
Sproesser-occupy recognized posi-
tions III the estimation of Watertown
audiences and their admirable efforts
on this occasion but added to their
previous achievements in he realm of
song. Miss Bertha Miller and Mr..
Sproesser served efficiently and with
taste as accompanies. The following

After the Honeumonn.

Court Commissioner Hahn on Fri
day took the testimony in the case of
the State VS.. August f. Violin,
charged with abandonment and nom
support by his wife. AIvina Violin.
The interested parties are young resi-
dents of Milford, and were married
year ago last February. Their marital
happiness, the complainant affirms. has
been interfered with by ber mother
in-law to whose home her husband
took her to live after the marriage.
These unpleasant relations became so
aggravated that the young wife, it is
alleged, was forced TO leave the home
last August, since hen she claims her
husband has failed to properly sup
port her. A child was born to the
couple in due time, and support is al
so sought for it. The case was ad
journed until next Friday, when the
arguments will be made District At
torneY Ryder is assisted in the prose
cutiQn by G. H. Gardner, while Har.

CITY FATHERS MEET.
OF the Fire Department
Discussed-Other Matters.

Reorganization OF the Fire Department
Discussed-Other Matters.
At the common council meeting last
evening the reorganization of the fire
department in connection with the
early completion of the waterworks
was discussed at length. Alderman
Stone gave some ideas which the Fire
committee have been considering,
among which was the purchase of two
heavy hose wagons to be hauled by
horses. He offered resolution author
izing such purchase, and on motion
the same was referred to the Finance
and Fire committees. 1t was the sense
of the council that with the system of
waterworks working in accordance
with the specified requirements, no
fire steamers will be necessary, the
water pressure from the tower being
expected to meet all ordinary demands
IN case of fire. One steamer, however,
Will be kept, with an engineer, and the
9th er disposed of to the best advantage.
A good suggestion offered was to retain
the four old hose reels, fit them up
with spare hose and station them on
the outskirts of the city, where they
would be ready for service. The North
western university, Sacred Heart col
lege, Buchheit's malt house and F. c.
Hartwig's place were suggested as
proper stations.
The securing of lower insurance rates
was advocated by a number of the al
dermen. To this end it was suggested to
have an inspection of the waterworks
made by representative of the board
of underwriters as soon as the same
are in shape. Alderman Needham, in
this connection, explained that the
river connection for the waterworks,
about which there had been some
doubt, is all ready to be laid, thus Sc
caring reserve supply of water.
The mayor appointed Aldermen
Kessler, Eaton and Hartwig as the
board of health
1t was voted to construct sewer on
Sixth street, between Main and Dodge.
A resolution providing for sewers on
Third and Fourth streets, between
Milwaukee street and Western avenue,
was referred to the Sewerage commit
tee
Alderman Eaton introduced a resolu-
tion authorizing the Water company to
purchase and have set up three horse
fountains, located as designated by the
council, the cost of the same to be de-
cided subsequently. Referred to the
Waterworks committee.
A proposal of g. w. Evans to haul
the hook and ladder truck to fires for
one year for $3.50 was referred to the
Fire committee, which was authorized
to make contract with some response
BILE party for 1925.
Upon motion the election of presi-
dent of the council, as transacted at
the last meeting, was reconsidered,
owing to its informality. The council
proceeded to elect by ballot, Alderman
Eaton being chosen on the first formal
ballot, receiving ten out Of twelve
votes.
Before the council adjourned Alder
man Needham stated that he declined
to serve on the committees to which
he had been assigned The mayor ac-
cepted his declination, and will fill the
vacancies by other appointments.
