cuses.
There are some encouraging indications for
the Republican cause in the local contest to
be decided at the polls Monday, April 6.
These take the direction of manifestations of
interest on the part of individuals and classes
who are too often indifferent, but who now
declare themselves ready TO do all in their
power for the success of the entire Republican
ticket. A meeting of about one hundred
leading Republican workers in the different
wards was held at the court house last
evening at which the spirit manifested pres
aged desired results in campaign operations.
II had been expected few would gather for
consultation on some plans broached for con-
sidera,ion OF the Executive Committee, but
the meeting developed into a genuine, uumis-
taxable, old-,:me Republican rally j. H.
Rabbits, Esq, was chairman, and P. NJ. Cart
NELL secretary The important points de-
cided were that the recommendation should
be made 10 the Executive Committee, which
meets tonight, to call a general meeting in
the wigwam for some evening next week,
calling out the Plug Hat Brigade, perhaps.
and provision made for meetings in the dif-
ferent wards in the interest OF the Republican
ticket. Also that permanent head
quarters should be opened as soon
as possible in the old Republic
building on Main street. Postmaster John
son was seen this morning, and grants the
use of the wigwsm, at Main and Center
streets, for the mass meeting, when called.
The time from now until the polls close on
the evening OF Monday, April 6, is 10 be i'm
proved, in legitimate, honest, and above
board way, every hour of it to the end that
the Republican vote shall be brought out to
elect the Republican ticket.

Ninth Ward Councilman.

1t not intrequently happens that the entire
city is fully as much interested in the result
OF an election for ward officers OF par leu
lar ward as the people aud voters of that
ward themselves, and il is in such
cases, when the welfare of the city
at large is at stake, that party lines
should be disregsrded. An illustration is
found at the present time in the case OF the
Ninth ward, the Republicans of which have
re-nomiuated Mr.. B. F. T. Jennings for Coun-
ell, position Tor which he is emlnently quail
iged as shown by his work during the past
Two years. In his position as chairman OF the
important Police Committee, Mr.. Jennings
has instituted reforms and put through i'm
the benefit today, greater than Tor the re-
naming time the city has had an organized
police force. In the single matter OF the
station-house and chain gang: The commit
February the average number of prisoners
per day was q LA; that 2,274 meals
were issued during the month at the
actual cost 10 the city OF S9S.S2,
or an average cost per man Of 1902
cents each day. With about the
same average of prisoners per day the expense
10 the city for keeping them was Sls5, includ-
| lug $40 paid the cook, while now a male
| cook is paid $40 per month, which amount
is included in the above total of cost for Feb
| ruary. In order that these reforms and i'm
provements should be continued and added
to it is important Mr.. Jennings should be re-
| tanned in Council, and voters OF the Ninth
ward, irrespective OF party, should see TO it
he Is reelected. Recognizing his fitness for
the position, and placing efficiency above
party considerations, Mr. Jennings was in
ST umeutsl in placing that tried and true vet
| eran soldier, Colonel August Do,zs, in charge
as one of the station-house keepers, and the
Colonel has done much toward earring into
effect the system established by the Police
Committee of Council

A Five-Years-Old Falls Into Buck Creek
Near Limestone Street Bridge-Recov-
cry OF the Body-Coroner's Inquest.
Early last evening the police were Notified
that small boy named Joseph Rc=isky, son
OF Mrs. Shay by former husband, was miss
ing from his home in rear of Mrs NJ knoie's
residence, Market street, between Columbia
and North. Ii was no: until after eight
o'clock at night that it was learned the boy
had fallen into deep water 10 Buck creek, at
Limestone street bridge, and been drowned
This occurred about four o'clock IN the after
noon, and The TACT WIS learned by closely
Questioning brother of the missing child two
OF three years younger than himself,
who was the only person present when the
accident happened, and be was too badly
scared to say anything about it until ques-
toned. Ii was then SO late that, although
the spot was visited and some search made,
it was thought by the frieEd unnecessary to
do anything then, but the search was re-
newed this morning in presence of a great
crowd of children and Others among them
the boys mother ana little brother Mr..
James Neill, the blacksmith, attached line
10 a graphing iron and dragged the bottom
of the creek for while. But the body was
not recovered until after ten o'clock, when a
son of II. F. Rhoderick interested bimself in
securing a boat, into which Wm. Conrers
and Robert McIntIre entered and
soon succeeded in raising the body
by means of pole with an iron
hook on one end, furnished by Mr.. Neill, the
hook catching in the drowned boys shoe
The little corpse was laid in buggy and
carried to the house, the waiiing mother TO-
lowing with many OF the spectators As
nearly as can be made out the boy was walk
ing as close as he could to the edge OF the ice
and struck a thin place where it jutted cut
into the stream, the ice giving away. The
body had floated across the creek some dis
tsnce from the place where it fell. Coroner
Coleman will hold an inquest. There is
disposition among North Side people to crIti-
else the police authorizes for their neglect in
not taking more vigorous measures to recover
the body and in allowing it to remain SO ling
in water bat few feet deep.

The case OF James Trotter against Paul
Paden was compromised last night by Paden
paying up the various mortgages on the
horses and other stock, thus giving Trotter a
clear title. The latter will sell out his horses
and buggies as soon as possible as he is COM
PEELED to vacate the stable by April l. The
reason OF this is that he does not wish to rent
the saloon which is connected with the stable
and the owners will not rent separately.

Yet narrow in her mind as in her shoe.

A ROMANTIC STORY.
The Alleged Discovery of Long-Absent
Parent Through a Clairvoyant.

The Alleged Discovery of a Long-Absent
Parent Through a Clairvoyant.
Troy IN. " Special.
very romantic story came to light here to-
day. Nearly forty years John Marsh was
married in Buffalo. After eleven years he left
his wife and three children, and they heard
nothing from him. The family moved to Cohoes
and obtained work in the mills. Seventeen
years ago Mrs. Marsh, having heard that her
husband had died in the war, married Thomas
Simpson Mrs. Marsh's children grew up and
were married. but one of them died. Children
by Simpson we're also born. Three weeks ago
Simpson died and shortly afterward a clairvoy
ant came to town. One of Mrs. Marsh's married
daughters paid the clairvoyant visit and was
told that her father, whom she mourned as dead,
was still alive, was living at Atchison, Kan. and
was worth considerable money. The daughter
was told to write him, and he would gladly
answer. The letter was written, and Mr.. Marsh
responded in person to-day. There is intense
excitement in the family. Mrs. Simpson refuses
to allow Marsh to be the head of the family again
The daughters husbands have been offered good
business positions if they will 60 with him. The
matter is under consideration.
