Eberle New Postmaster

The post Office controversy has been
settled and II. L. Eberle is to be the
next postmaster for the city of Water
town. For reasons that it is unneces-
sary to state, but which are we'll known
to the other aspirants for the place, it
became necessary for Congressman
Adams to recommend third man as a
compromise and he recommended H. II.
Eberle and his appointment, as far as
the writer has been able to ascertain,
gives general satisfaction to the public
and patrons of the Office. Mr.. Eberle
is a druggist, has resided here many
years, is good business man and an
exemplary citizens He is upright,
manly and has high ideals as to moral
and social requirements Those who
are intimately acquainted with him are
confident that he will make a very
efficient and popular official and be a
worthy successor to toe present post
master, who will retire from the Office
the expiration of his term, after
eight years of service, with the conn
sciousness of having been a faithful
officer with no reflection upon his honor
and character as man. either at home
or in the post Office department at
Washington, ID. &.
The rumor that Mr.. Eberle has
chosen deputy is untrue. He has
made no promises and does not propose
to appoint a deputy until he has re-
ceived his commission and is about to
enter upon the discharge Of his duties,
and will then give his entire time to
the performance of his duties, his son
Ralph taking charge Of his drug bust
ness thas relieving him of all response
bilities outside of the post Office.

Do not Miss the Concert

The second entertainment of the
series given by the Mems Club will be
presented at the Grand Opera House,
Tuesday evening, January 10th.
The attraction offered this time will
be the Temple Qusrtctte, which is one
of the best high class attractions now
making Il tour Of this country. Given
four men with voices that blend delight
fully and who know how to sing, and
the effect is charming. This is why
the Temple Quartette of Boston has
established a reputation from coast to
coast ds a musical organization Of first
class 1t is rarely that a quartette
acquires the proficiency and finish that
characterzes the work of the Temples.
Everyone who loves music should hear
this company. One of the pleasing
features of the entertainment is the
cheerfulness in responding to encores.
The Temple Quartette while in
II istings, Nebr., some time ago, packed
the Opera House and in addition to the
six hundred season tickets sold, Cne
hundred single admissions were sold
the night of the performance.
The Company in addition to the
quartette which comprises II. q. Iripp,
F. P. Barker. A. c. Steele and E. F.
Webber. also includes Catherine Cole,
entertainer, who is reciter imbued
with true dramatic instincts. Whether
in humorous or more serious selections.
her interpretations show a naturalness
and sincerity which have the power to
impress and sway the audiences.
Miss Coles work in the line of double
sketches is most entertaining, and it is
with the greatest confidence that the
MANAGEMENT recommed her as excep-
tionallv we'll qualified for this lire of
work. She is the equal of any reader
that ever appeared in this city. She
has a variation Of voice aud counte-
nence and an ease and grace Of action
! that one cannot imagine could be i'm
proved.
In accordance with the regular
arrangements, those holding course
tickets can have them exchanged for
reserved seats all day January 10Th,
commencing at 900 a.. m. at the
Schempf Drug CO. Single admission
tickets are now issued and can be had
at SOC each, or course tickets for the
three remaining attractions will be
sold at $1.OO. Those holding single
admission tickets may have them ex-
changed for reserved seats on the day
Of the attraction.

Will Remodel PostOffice.

A postoffice Inspector has been here
and recommended remodeling of the
postoffice in this city. The changes
c)ntempated, are an enlargement Of
the lobby which all will admit, is al
together too small for the convenience
of the public, the private Office of the
postmaster is to be made larger in
order that the safe may be under the
personal supervision of the postmaster
and constantly lnder his control The
working Office or distributing room is
to be enlarged by utilizing the room
in the rear now occupied by the Union
Telegraph Co. which will seek quart
er5 elsewhere. Work on the improve
ments are to be begun in the near
future and be COM pleted by the time
that Postmaster GruetZmacher retires
from the Office, SO that his successor
will step into an Office more convien-
lent and in keeping with the siz4 and
business of the city that it is at pres
ent. The work of remodeling and i'm
proving the Office will be under the
supervision of w. G.. Stone, the owner
Of the building which Is a guarantee
that they will be substantial aud up
tO-date.

Better Go Armed.

The attention Of the proper author
tiles is called to the fact, that of late
several ladies have been insulted upon
the streets Of this city after night fall
while returning to their homes from
their work. Last Wednesday night,
a yonng lady was met by "a Jack the
Hugger" on SecOnG-st. who insisted in
paying her attentions that were ex-
ceeding disagreeable and alarmed her
to such an extent as to confne her to
ner home for several days suffering
with nervous prostration. 1t is not
known whether the party or parties
who are engaged in forcing their at
tentions upon unprotected fem
ales are residents of the city Or not.
If they are strangers the police should
round them up and see that they are
driven from Watertown. If they re-
they should be apprehended and given
a term of 80 days pounding rock.
Upon second thought however the
writer would recommend that when
ladies are obliged to be out nights,
they should 60 armed and when in
suited shoot, so as to assist in the
Identification OF their assailants and
make the sport Of hugging dangerous
for the whelps.

Franchise Asked For.

A trolley line to this city from Mil
waukee and making this division
point for branches running north, south
and west means large increase in the
population of Waterfowl in the i'm
mediate future and the Enhancement in
the values of all kinds Of real estate.
1t means a new and better epoch in the
history and experience Of the city.
Elsewhere we publish the entire text Of
the application for the franchise filed
with the city clerk, which will be
presented at the next meeting Of the
common council and according to the
rule be referred to the committee on
Streets and Bridges This is an i'm
portant matter-one that should receive
the most careful consideration and the
writer would suggest, that before the
committee makes it's report, that a
public mass meeting should be called
at the council cham Der and the matter
discussed, so that thereafter none can
say, that they were ignorant of the
provisions of the franchise. If there
are objections let them be made al
