OUR HOMELESS YOUNG MEN.

The coming of Thanksgiving always arouses
the sympathy of the tender-hearted for tie
homeless young man. He is pictured as
sad and lonely witness to the happy reunions
of families. and the gathering of friends
about the festal board where mellowing in
hueuces of love and congeniality make the
occasion especially delightful. Perhaps the
homeless young man might be left out in the
cold and be made to feel that he is a sort of
an outcast or wanderer. The generosity of
those who have plenty and like 10 see others
banny operates to save the homeless young
man from the horrible fate that seems i'm

home. where he is the object of special atten-

mon him tenderly and sees that his plate

OF A POLICE COMMISSION.
Aid. Cooley FavOrs the PIan-sA De-
ces,t salary for the tsaVor


ces't salary for the t.ayor.
II am heartily in favor of police commits
sion," said Aid. G. W. Cooley, chairman of
the council Committee on police, land L think
the necessary legislation should be obtained
at once. a police commission is not a politf-
cal scheme. by any means, but, on the con-
trary, should be kept severely out of politics.
The commission should be separate and dis
tinct from council and the mayor and should
non-partisan board elected by the people
or appointed by the governor, and its men,
bers should have compensatory salaries. The
police department is entirely too much to be
saddIed upon the mayor, and should not be
made portion Of his especial care. That
office should be too dignited for the ordinary
police affairs of the city, yet the routine
affairs of the police department should be
closely scrutiniZed. 1t is wrong, also, to have
a complete reorganization of the department
with every election, as at present, and inter
feres with the best efficiency of the force.
1t is really making political Office of each of
the $50 places on the force. and that that
is radically wrong requires no argument
to be shown. / would favor a board of
five members, entirely non-partisan, and
give into their hands the entire control of the
department. Men would thus be selected for
their fitness for the place alone and not for
their political work. influence and effect.
They should undergo a thorough physical ex-
animation the first thing, as in other cities. -
would not the system entail great ex-
penseY'
IAN expense, perhaps, but not a great one.
The cost would be nothing wnen the actual
benefits are considered. The city needs moth
ing more than it does just such a system of
this kind
"You mentioned the mayor"
Eyes, think the Office OF mayor should be
accompanied by respectable salary. No
competent business man can afford to per-
form the onerous duties of that Office for
81, 600 per year. His actual time is worth
more than that to him and to the city think
about $4,000 would be the correct salary

AND CRANBERRY SAUCE.

(which will you have, light or dark meat?''
and Wont you have some more of the cram
berry sauce?" were questions asked in many
a home yesterday.
A philanthropic gentleman supplied a
number of turkeys for distribution to the de-
serving poor through the agency of the AS
ISOLATED charities.
The sky-blue turkey with an acute breast
tone and phantom wings will cease to be dis
played so prominently at the grocery store
or while.
Nine persons were9sent out to the work
aouse yesterday, and arrived there in time to
enjoy THANKSGIVING dinner.
The hotels all served especially good din
rers, and the menus of many of them were
elaborate affairs.
The various places of amusement gave
matinees, which were invariably well at
tended.
Tom and Jerry, egg f1ipp, and hot toddy
were served at all the bars yesterday, without
turkey.
A social party was given at the lecture
room of the Unitarian church last evening.
The Nicollet CLUB served lunch during the
afternoon and evening.

their opportunity yesterday.

The newsboys are something of politicians.

motion was loudly seconded.
At the newsboys' banquet last evening one
of the ladies said; They have not much

and her pause was filed with the happy
clamor.
The Dime museum played to the largest
audiences of the year yesterday. The place
was literally packed and hundreds were
turned away. The sketch artists. Harris and
Walters, made decided hits.

of the men in attempting to take the knife
away was slightly cut in the hand.
The wedding of J. D. Maloney and Sarah L.

a large number of friends. The wedding

Naturally the best audiences of the week
turned out at the special Thanksgiving matt

tiers. AT most of the play-houses crowds
were turned away in the afternoon.

much of a success as heretofore, nOtwith-
