The Orchestra Concert Arranged by
Edward Schempf-Bach's Symphony
Orchestra at Turner Opera House.

oTcnesGra at turner Opera House.
The orchestra concert which is be-
ing arranged by Edward Schempf
for the evening of Friday, December
%, at Turner Opera house, promises
to be an exceptional musical event.
1t is seldom that an orchestra of the
ability OF Bach's Symphony orchestra
is heard In towns of this size, includ-
ing as it does twenty-five of the very
| best players from that renowned or
ganization. The orchestra will con-
sist of first and second violins, violas,
'cellos, bass viols, flutes, oboe, clario-
nets, cornets, French horns, from
bones, kettle-drums and small drums.
The success attained by Mr.. Schempf
as director OF the Amateur Musical
club, in its concert last season, is am
pie assurance that the coming concert
under his direction will be even more
of treat, musically, than that of last
season. Then, too, the debut of Miss
Bertram, our local contralto, will be
OF especial interest to every one. She
will sing two numbers, with full or
chestra accompaniment. The entire
program will consist of excellent
numbers, somewhat popular in their
nature, but with few classic COMPOST
tions interspersed. The prices of ad-
mission have been placed within the
reach OF all. The first nine rows on
main floor. reserved rs cents; balance
OF seats on main floor, reserved, SO
cents; gallery, reserved, 35 cents; gen
eral admission to gallery, 20 cents
Tickets on sale and reserved at
Schempf & Schulz drug store on and
after Friday, December 21 Those
who enjoy dancing will certainly ap-
preciate the social hop after the con-
cert. Ten men Of the orchestra will
furnish the music, which will probably
be the best dance music ever heard
here.

WATERTOWN'S POPULATION,
Decrease of 31S in the 1Past Ten Years.
Poor Showing as Compared with
Other Wisconsin Cities

|
Other Wisconsin Cities
On Saturday the census bureau al
| Washington gave out the population
OF the incorporated cities Of Wisconsin
OF more than 1000 inhabitants. In
I a most every instance the figures
show an increase over the population
of 1890, there being only three excep-
tions to the rule-and, we are sorry
to say, Watertown is one of
these, having slumped from S,755 in
1890 to 8,437 in 1900, a loss of 318.
| Chippewa Falls and Whitewater are
the other cities showing loss.
According to the state census of
1890 Watertown had population Of
1922. and in view of these figures
nearly everybody was counting on our
passing the 10000 mark by a good
, round number. The result of the
federal enumeration is therefore most
disappointing, to say the least. The
figures of 1895, however. were prob
ably incorrect, the system then en-
ployed in enumerating being not so
concise and particular as was in
vogue this year, when every semb-
lance of padding" was prohibited by
the rules laid down for the guidance
OF the enumeratOrs. For instance,
no person employed away from his
actual place of residence at the time
OF the taking of the census was per-
mitted to be enrolled in such place.
but was rather taken in the place
OF his temporary employment. Thus
it was that Watertown's population is
known to have suffered in no little
measure. But the fact nevertheless
remains. and cannot be controverted,
that we cannot depend upon our fine
agricultural environments for sub
stantial building up of our population.
Here and there retired farmer NOV
ing into the city will not materially
enhance our interests in the way of
increased population. What we need
Is more manufactures if we do not
desire to constantly migrate towards
the rear of the procession. The past
decade has witnessed our taking
decided step backw ward so far as pop
ulatiOn is concerned. not at all COM
mensurate with our other improve
ments and the consequent increased
rate of taxation. The people of Water
town should now wake up and look to
their interests, if they mean to main
tain any sort of rank. With present
conditions existing ten years hence we
will have been passed in the population
process ION by perhaps dozen cities
now seseral Thousand below US.
The following table shows the pop
ulation of the cities now and in 1890:
