University Extension Lectures.

Watertown is to be favored again
this winter with a course of university
extension lectures. The committee
IN charge for this season recently met
at the Office of Messrs. Prentiss
ard Woodland Professor OFT was
elected chairman of the meeting. 1t
was decided to ask Professor Sparks,
OF the Chicago university, to finish his
course begun last season on 1.-The Men
who Made the Nationn y Professor
Sparks lectures last winter illustrated
the period from 1863 to 1900. The
second part, which he will give this
winter illustrates the period from
1900 to 1860 and includes the follow
ing: (D Thomas jefferson, the Ex-
pounder of Democracy (6rst political
revolution); (2) Henry Clay, the Faith
er OF Pubhc improvements develop
ment Of the West); (3) Andrew Jack
son, the Man of the People (party men
and methods); (0 Daniel Webster,
the Defender Of the Constitution
american law and svatesmanship);
(o) Horace Greeley, the Editor of The
Tribune the newspaper in American
polltlcs); (6) Abraham Lincoln, the
First American (third return of polit-
zeal power to the peOple). Those who
took advantage of these lectures last
winter felt amply repaid Professor
Sparks has the happy art of present
ing historical facts to his audience in
a way that holds their attention and
makes the lecture hour seem all too
short, 1t is the aim of the committee
to put the great advantages of these
lectures within the means of every cit
lzen OF Watertown. The idea of uni
verslty extension lectures is to bring
as Tar as possible the advantages for |
culture and instruction to people who |
are engaged IN the ordinary vocations !
of life and yet who desire to establish |
or renew relations with the currents |
OF thought and aspiration which flow |
into, through and out from a univer- |
sitY center. To the end that a much |
larger circle may benefit by this oppor-
tunity the committee have decided to |
place the course of six lectures at the |
low price of one dollar In order to
meet tne current expenses, which are
quite heavy, the committee must meet
with willing and generous support
from all the citizens of Watertown
who desire educational advantages for
themselves and their children. The |
first lecture will be given on Friday,
January 5, 1900, in the assembly room
OF the nigh school building, and con-
tlnue on each Friday fortnight during

Football.

The game Of football at Washing
ton park Saturday afternoon between
the Sacred Hearts and the Milwaukee
Medical college team ended in an un-
satisfactory manner. With the score
standing l l to in favor of the home
team, the Medics left the field soon
after the opening Of the second half,
refusing to play any longer because
they claimed the Sacred Hearts were
employing unfair tactics. It is said
the game was roughly played on both
sides and that each team should have
been penalized. We notice by com
munication in this mornings Sentinel
that the Medics are disposed to place
the entire blame on their opponents,
but there is no doubt another side to
the controversy and we expect to see
the Sacred Hearts defend themselves.
Following was the lineup:

CONVENTION COMES HERE.
Annual Meeting of the Wisconsin Dairy
mems Association, February
IL to IL 1900

The efforts of the Watertown Busi-
ness Mems association to secure the
next meeting of the Wisconsin Dairy
mems association were not without
avail, for at the meeting of the eXecu-
tive committee of the dairymen at
Fort Atkinson last Wednesday it was
decided to hold the annual convention
for 1900 in this city, February IA, Is,
16 and II.
1t is fitting that the annual conven-
tion should be held here, inasmuch as
WatertOwn was the place of meeting
nearly twenty-eight years ago when
the Dairymen's association had it's in
ception. In its endeavors to advance
the dairying interests of the state
the association has been eminently
successful and the publicity given it's
deliberations has resulted in untold
good to the Wisconsin farmer, who is
numbered among the foremost dairy
men of the world. The association
aims at all times to give special infor-
nation relating to the work Of the
dairy farmer and its membership is
very large.
The four days meeting, it is ex-
pected, will bring to the city numer-
Gus visitors, not only from the imme
diate vicinity, but from the entire
state. 4 fine program of entertain
ment will be arranged and the best
dairy talent in the country will parti-
cipate. Liberal cash prizes will be
offered in the different competitions.
including butter and cheese making
A novel feature of the convention will
be a premium of 800 to be divided in
prizes to be awarded to the farmers
showing the best, second best and
third best herds of not less than
twelve cows without regard to breed
the product to cover the past year and
to be authenticated by the returns at
the creamery or cheese factory where
the milk of the herd is received. w.
d. Hoard offers $25 to be added to the
above premium.

TIE New Commercial Sold

After a prOprietOrship of about two
ana one-half years, w. j. Foy last
week sold the New Commercial hotel
to j. A. Mcconnell, of ST. Peter, Mimi.
the change taking place on Thursday.
The consideration is not given. The
new proprietor has been in the hotel
business twenty-five years, and with
this long experience is no doubt well
equipped to run hostelry that shall
be first-class in every respect and en-
inently satisfactory to all who have
occasion to favor it with their patron
age. Mr.. Mcconnell will be assisted
in the conduct of the house by his son,
John. It is generally hoped that they
will meet with much success in their
venture.
Mr.. Foy and family expect to leave
this week for Keeseville, n. Y, on a
visit to his mother. During their res
idence here they have been promi-
nently identified with the business and
social interests of Watertown, and
their numerous friends exceedingly
regret their departure. Mr.. Foy not
only added greatly to the value and
appearance of the hotel property dur
ing his regime as a genial landlord,
but he supported literally every pro-
ject for the welfare of the city. He is
public spirited and progressive, and
any community may well welcome
him to its midst.
