LESSON THAT WAS NEEDED.
ton Upon = Philadelphian
An Munich.

A Philadelphia railroad contractor,
who has recently returned from
abroad, tells ofan experience that be-
fell him in Munich illustrative of the
difference in prevailing customs, says
an exchange of that city. Armed with
. number of letters of introduction to
European railroad officials, he made it
point to inquire into the workings of
the various systems, and was treated
with uniform courtesy. At Munich he
thought he had acquired all the in
formation he was after, and as he
passed out of the office Of the man with
whom he had been talking he put on
his hat.
He had scarcely been ushered out
when 1t occurred to him that there was
one more matter about which he had
forgotten to inquire. II immediately
retraced my steps," said the Philadel-
phian, land again entered the office,
neglecting to remove my hat. I saw
the same official with whom I had been
talking, and, apologizing for taking up
50 much of his time, put the question
to him. Without word he reached up,
took of my hat and placed it in my
hand. Then he answered my query
and bowed me out. It made me feel
rather cheap"

THE big peasant, without a mo-

he was one of the Passion Play actors,

The WatertOwn Republican of July
&c, 1886. J. H. Keys & Co. editors & Pro-
prietors, says: 1.-THE government of
Macmillan in Mexico does not by any
means give indications Of very high
degree OF stability" 1t is very difficult,
however, to predict with any certainty
the future of this sOrely troubled
country"
Among the locals we learn:
Toe special term OF the Dodge County
Court has adjourned until the 3Oth.
"That the supervisors of this county
have appropriated the sum OF $1,000
for survey OF Rock River.
The excavation by Messrs Van Alstine
& Miller, for the foundation for their
new building, is progressing rapidly.
eve observe that Mr.. B. F. Hopkins,
OF Madison has been named in cOnnec-
ton with the nomination for member of
Congress"
The supervisors Of the town of Milford
are abe ut to rebuild the bridge over the
Crawfish, at HubbletOn, "a much needed
improvement.
No change in market quotation as
given in issue Of July 19. Wheat still
$3.50 to $500 per bushel, but oats are
only 80 cents.
NJ. G. pleads in an eloquent article for
the erection Of monuments for "our
dead" while the nation raises lofty mon
uments for her heros.
The number of school children in
Dodge County is about 1924; in Jeffer-
son County about 1885. Dodge County
will receive from the state School Fund
this year about $7,60O.65 and Jefferson
County $6,248.25.
The editors note also the discovery Of
bed of peat in marsh few miles
south of this city; DR.. Spaulding was
called in as al expert and arrived at q
satisfactory conclusion in regard to the
genuiness OF the deposit.

Watertown Public Library.

At regular meeting of the Euterpe
club held at the home of Mrs. A. Lieber-
man on July 8, the members unan-
imOusly agreed to help on the Public
library movement, by donation Of $50.
The ladies decided that they would
foreg0 their annual picnic and outing
and donate the money to this good
cause. This action on the part of one
of the smallest clubs in the city is wor-
thy of imitation, and it is to be hoped
that all the clubs in the city will show
their public spirit by raising an equal
or larger amount fof the Public library.
The benefits of wen conducted free
public library were so ably set forth by
Mr.. Hutchins and Miss Stearns, of Mad
ison, at the mass meeting held in Tur.
ner hall, that it seems needless to en-
large upon the subject; but it cannot be
emphasized too frequently that it is not
In the homes Of the well-tO-dO that the
public library does its best mission, but
for the humblest home, and for the
children OF the man who cannot buy
books, and the young man who cannot
attend college. 1t is for these that the
Public library is guide, philosopher and
friend.
We gladly give space for the above
correspondence and regret exceedingly
that it was received too late for inser-
ton last week. Our columns are open
for the promotion of any worthy cause,
educational, moral or material, that
shall enhance the welfare, happiness
and prosperity OF the people of our city,
Of our vicinity, Of our country, or of our
state. We will most willingly give
double the space to announce that any
other society or an individual has
shown twice as much interest as the
ladies have shown by donating twice as
much, and larger space in proportion
This action on the part of the mem.
bers Of the Euterpe club is kindness
prompted by helpful interest in a'wor-
thy cause and stands out clear and dis
tinct as an example worthy of a gener-
Gus following. 1t is not necessary in
this enlightened day and generation, es-
pecially In this community to waste
words and to spend time to prove the
benefit Of q Free Public library. Every
intelligent man. woman and child real
lie the fact and are looking forward
confidently to the near future when
their hopes for the present, through the
efforts and personal help Of more OF
our public-spirited citizens, shall find
full fruition in the permanent estab-
lishment Of Free Public library wor-
thy of the city and its people. It isn't
more talk, its more cash we want.
