Watertown crowd back at IL O'Clock.
The special train bearing the Wa
tertown people arrived here at II 80
O'Clock this morning, it having been
two hours from the time the train
left Beaver Dam before the departure
from Minnesota Junction. The citizens
of the nesghburing city showed many
evidences of their appreciation of the
very liberal attendance from Water

they would send a large delegation
from there next year to attend the
lnter-C County fair. The sight of 300
citizens from here, ladies and gentle
men, wearing badges, headed by
Mayor Mulherger, the city officials
and the band, marching down the
streets from the depot, evidently
looked good to the citizens over there
and many We're the cheers that went
