The German Press.

Alderman Julius Refs is the originator Of
the act under which the Sinking Fund
Commission was created. We also owe to
him the recent explanations as to the stand
ing and condition of the liquidated city
debt, which has justly caused such interest.
Only few of our Councilmen have ac-
quired such thorough knowledge of our
city's financial condition as Mr.. Refs.
This is to be so-called "gas-year." 1t is
expected that the voters will remember this
at the time of nominating candidates for
Councilmen. The tools of the Gas Company
are roofing up the soil like ground-hogs.
From the volksireund.l
The Police Commissioned Police Com
missioner is to be elected at the spring cleo
ton. According to hear-say Mr.. C. Kin
singer has resolved to come out as n candi-
date. He is a valuable member of the Com
mission, has never failed to be present at
the sessions of the Board, ard is very popu-
lar; 50 much SO that his nomination will
add strength to the Democratic ticket
Mr.. Len. Harris has repeatedly given
notice that he is no candidate for the May
orally. We can not, therefore, cOmpre-
hend how it is that certain faction is
working with might and main for his NOM
ination, although there arc many candi-
nomination, but deserve the same.
The Mayoralty-One of the most able and
prominent candidates for the Mayoralty on
the Democratic side is the present Presi-
dent of the Board of Aldermen, Mr.. julius
Refs. Mr.. Refs deserves especial recogni-
ton for his services to the city. lie, in his
time, fought the |. & G. Railroad Company
and saved n considerable sum OF money to
the city. In the same way he worked eli.
ergctically for the creation of the Sinking
Fund, through which large amounts OF
money was turned over to the city, that
formerly lay idle. Mr.. Refs is true and
energetic Democrat.
From The Freie Preset
If it be confirmed that Colonel Len. A.
Harris has resolved, under no considera-
ton, to accept the Democratic nomination
for the Mayoralty, the success of Mr.. Julius
Refs in securing the same may be consd-
cred as obtained. Since Mr.. Sutton has
withdrawn from the arena, MIR. Refs has
only one opponent to fear in the person OF
Colonel Harris. Now that the latter will
have nothing to do with the nomination
for Mayor, no hindrance stands in the road
for the fulfllment of the wishes of Mr..
Rels the banner-bearer of the Democracy
of Cincinnati. As to what we have said, a
few days ago, that the candidacy of Colonel
Harris would be a powerful one, willie that
OF Mr. Refs would be a weak one, we still
cling to. The candidacy of the latter wants
almost everything which would make the
same popular and therefore strong.

"Atlas" of the London World says
I was wrong the other day when I stated
that the Use of what may be called "live
jewelry" originated with an American
lady. That was only true of its present
shape, and in connection with live
beetles. The idea, undoubtedly an orig
inal one, belongs to Mmc Musard, who
startled Paris, some ten years ago, by
appearing at a representation de gala"
with live snake round her shnpely
arm. The snake was bound with a thin
chain to splendid diamond bracelet,
and at once. became subject of intense
excitement to the audience. Several
weak limitations in the shape of live
lizards, etc, made their appearance in
the following days; but the fashion did
not take. and it soon died out

POROUS PLASTER,S.

Most druggists are conscientious in their deal
ingS, but there are few who are not. A numb Der
of c"ses have been reported to us recently where
druggists, for the sake Of gaining small addition
al profit, have sought to impose upon their clisto-
mers by offering them cheap and worthless imita-
tions OF Bcnson's Capcine Porous Plaster in place
of the Genuine. or have tried to sell them the
common porous plaster when i nson's Capcinc
Porous Plaster was asked for falsely claiming that
the common article possessed equal merit. We
therefore caution all buyers Of Benson's Capcinc
Plaster TO see that the word CAPC NE is correctly
speled-that each plaster has the word
C-A-P-C-l-N-E cut through it. BY this simple
precation imposition may be avoided.
