covery was made that a wrestling bout
had been pulled off, in the chapel of
the Congregational church. The chapel
vas recently equipped with gymnas-
ium apparatus and some young fellows
arranged for a wrestling match be-
tween two young wrestlers named
Klemann and Davis, which was won
by Klemann. Church members pro-
tested against the match being held
but their wishes were disregarded, and
as a consequence the gymnasium has
been closed by the church authorities,
who hold that while a gymnasium put
to proper use is all right in a church
building, it is not the proper place in
which to hold sporting events.
One of the questions to come before
the voters of the city of Webster at the
election of April 20, is that authoriz-
ing the city council to arrange for a
free library and make the necessary
appropriations for it's establishment
and support. The proposition lost at
the last city election by a narrow mar
gin, but public sentiment has changed
since then and it is believed the plan
will carry.
A committee of the Watertown Com
mercial Club has been appointed to
arrange for the state convention of
the Seventh Day Adventists, which
will be held at Watertown next sum
mer. The Adventists will camp in
tents near the outskirts of the city,
and asked for city water and electric
lights on the campaign ground, and
the setting aside Of a plot of ground
for the meeting, which will be done.
An attendance of 500 is expected.
Up in the western part of the state
where they have had more experience
with irrigation and water conservation
than in the eastern part, one of the
methods of conservation this spring is
to pile up earth about the big sno
drifts which have formed in the gar
dens, and holding all the melting snow
on the garden tract.

Then he dropped his head. These

there was no hope. He shook his head
to the girl, but sank into the nearest

"He repents!" the girl called out

The sentiment for no change of gov

proponents of the alderman system in
every polling place. For the short
