Many Business Firms
Must Move Houses

In order to make the necessary
room for the construction Of the
new Rock Island and NJ. e. st. L. pas
senger depot in this city, several lead
ing industries located on the north
siding of the ST. Louis in the local
yards have been ordered to move
back some distance. .
Engineer Footwith plats and plans
OF the yards and proposed station,
was in the city last week. He no.
titled the owners of the elevators,
warehouses, and lumber yards that
they would have to move. He found
that there is not sufficient room be-
tween the present main line and the
siding to permit building the station
and platforms. ai
Those industries affected are the
Bowman Lumber company, the Ann
heuser Busch Brewing Company, the
Skinner Transfer line, and the Thorn.
as McBath elevator. Possibly others
will receive notification before the
plan is entirely worked out.
The contract for the construction
Of the depot has been let and 1t is ex-
rected that material will begin to ar
rive on the ground within few days.
Chicago contractor is said to have
been the successful bidder but he
is expected to use local labor in
erecting the building.
The moving of the business places
along the industrial track will mean
considerable Inconvenience to each.
The distance, however, win not be
great. The siding will be relaid as
soon as the moving is completed.
The location is said to have been
marked out and determined by Mr..
Foot. 1t will be about midway be-
tween Oak and Maple streets and the
Platforms on either end will extend
practically to the sidewalk lines.

Tells of Planting Trees
Around Court House

John ]. McMath, one of the pioneer
residents of Watertown, met the re-
porter for the Saturday News on First
avenue S. in front of the court house
the other day.
Mr.. McMath said as he pointed to
a large maple tree which stands near
the east side of the gate as you 60
into the court house square, you see
that large maple tree-the second one
en- the east side of the walk? Well,
sir, that makes my mind 60 back
many years. 1t was, let me see, about
twenty-eight years ago that I planted
that tree. I remember it very dis
tinctly. | was town marshal at that
time, and the job comprised not on
ly town marshal but street commits
sioner, pound master and dog catch
er. l was overseeing this job of
planting this row of trees and A. d.
Heath was setting out that identical
tree. I did not like the way he was
setting it out and took the shovel
away from him and set it out myself.
Amt it daisy now? Yes, superin-
tended the planting of this whole
front row Of trees and l notice that
many of the old original trees are
still here, there having been a few
that died and others have taken their
places. Gen. Pierce planted all the
rest of the trees in the court house
yard assisted by o. D. Stevens and
others. l remember the time that
Hank Wiersbeck mules ran away and
straddled that whole east side row of
