gagged if satisfactory terms can be arranged.

A Souvenir Gem.

1t is a source of great satisfaction that
the good people of st. Paul have enterprise
enough to support such a fiue publication
as will be the Second Annual Souvenir of
Hotel Ryan and the winter carnival. The
first one issued was extravagantly compi-
mented. and so eagerly sought after that
the large edition was quickly circulated
throughout the country by visitors to the
city. Handsome as was the last one. that
now being published for the palatial hotel
by Mr.. d. E. Roselle will far excel it. The
cover, which is completed. is a charming
study in seven tnts with bronze and gold,
and is an artistic gem. The inside will be
issued in two effective colorS and the ty-
biography will be beautiful. The book is
carefully edited and will contain much
needed feature. which will greatly enhance
it's value-a strangers guide to st. Paul.
The representative business houses of the
city receive pleasant mention. making the
book finished guide for shoppers and
visitors.

A Long Winter

Is before us, and, every user of steam knows
that. at best. it means large expenditure
for Goals which makes these questions OPP
perfume; whether your coal bills are as
low as you would like them? Have you
sufficient steam for all your requirements.
and especially is there no waste heat which
means steam going up your chimney?
When considering these important matters,
it would be well tor you to look into the
merits of the Locke Damper Regulator,
which the Warner & Hough Machine COM.
pany of ISL East Sixth street, city. are ap-
plying. free of all expense. on thirty days
trial. This Damper Regulator automatically
proportions the quantity of fuel consumed
to the amount of steam used. 1t will open
and close the heaviest hampers independ-
ent of friction. with variation of pressure
that cannot be seen on the steam gauge 1t
uses no steam to work it. and is guaranteed
to be more sensitive and reliable than any
other regulator made. Mr.. John j. Ellis,
member of the school board and of the
Omaha railroad, has with Others, adopted
the same. and speaks highly to our reporter
of its merits.

A BILL FORMULATED.
After Almost Endless discussion the
Committee Decides on Plan for
Making Assessments.

After Almost Endless discussion the
Committee Decides on a Plan for
Making Assessments.
There was large attendance in the
chamber of commerce last evening at the
meeting of the committee to present draft
of bill for adopting the Ontario plan OF
paving assessments for local Improvements.
Mr.. Murray called II. T. Stevens to the
chair and the latter proceeded to read the
bill! formulated by the committee. The bill
contemplates the issue of not more than
$500. 600 of local Improvement bonds, to
bear per cent. Interest. enabling assess
ments to be paid in installmentS, the I'M
paid parts bearing z per cent. interest,
making the adoption of the plan on any i'm
provement discretionary with the council.
and requiring, in order that the plan be
adopted. that improvements On the prop
erty to be benefited be equal to 25 per cent.
of the prOperty's assessed valuation where
paving was wanted. and per cent. where
grading was wanted. A long informal
discussion followed. in which it
was said that only those having
influence with the council would get any
benefits. as the amount of bonds would not
cover over one-fourth of the necessary i'm
provements At this point Archelaus Pugh
suggested that the bonds be limited to grad
ing, and Mr. Rogers offered resolution to
that effect, the amount of bonds being linn
tied to $780, 900 per annum. Mr.. Fogg
offered a substitute that it was inexpedient
to enter upon the Ontario plan. This
brought out more formal discussion. and,
after an hours talk. the motion of Mr..
Rogers was adopted. The bill also includes
an amendment to the present law, extend
ing the time of redemption to five years.
and reducing the rate of interest on certi6-
Gates to II per cent. 1t was understood
that this would be the last discussion of
this matter by the committee.

FOR FALLEN WOMEN.

Managers Of the W Oman's Christian
home Considering Sites for New
Structure.
a special meeting was held by the board
of managers Of the Woman'S Christian
Home yesterday afternoon, at which Mes
danes Gates. Van Dusee, PREM. Sawyer.
Smith, Russell, Stanton, Comley, Moss,
Luley, Young and others were present. The
object of the meeting was to consider the
report of the committee which had been
appointed TO look up a suitable location for
the proposed new home building. Mrs.
PREM made report. and several locations
were discussed, but no one was decided
upon, as it was thought necessary to look
over the city little more thoroughly before
making a selection. The finances of the
board were found to be most encouraging.
The ladies unanimously passed vote Of
thanks to Mrs. Stickney, and those who
participated in the concert at Mrs. Stick
neys Tor the benefit of the home.
Mrs. Rogers, the matron, is of the opin
ion that the purpose of the WOman's
Christian Home is not very well understood.
She says it was designed as refuge for all
fallen women but of late it has become a
maternal institution. She hopes that any
fallen woman may take advantage of the
home. where the family" as she terms it,
is always treated with kind consideration.
1t is conducted under the auspices of the
Minnesota Magdalen association and that
title would sufficiently indicate its purpose.
The condition of the home at present is
pronounced excellent by the managers.
