mayor to many citizens.
The democratic city convention meets
this afternoon at 2 O'Clock in the city
council chamber to nominate ticket
for the coming election. There prom
ises to be little controversy over any of
the offices except that of marshal.
Among the names suggested for the
republican nomination for city marshal
are l.. B. Cousins and A. S. Clough.
Botlr are old police officers, thoroughly
experienced, and as thoroughly honest.
Either of them would fill the position
we'll.
S. J. Vance, who was hit over the
head with a shovel in the hands of
young Sandel, has so far recovered as
to be able to resume work. The case
against Sandel has been dropped, as it
rppears that the assault was not wholly
unjustifiable, although perhaps little
severe.
b. S. Terwilliger has decided to en-
gage in the commission and fruit busi-
ness, and has leased the building Nos.
Al ana 43 North Main street, formerly
occupied by Y. II. Lindsey. He will
open at once. N. L. Leaman, who has
had much experience, and who is one of
the most active young men in this line,
will be connected with this new house.
1t seems conceded that Mayor Rohrer
will be renOminated. He has announced
that he cannot serve as mayor unless
the salary is made somewhat in proper
tion to the amount of work demanded
but thus far there has been no change
made in the pay roll by the council.
The present salary is certainly no temp
tation for any man VINO has other bust
ness to attend to.

the lawyers banquet at the formal
opening OF the new court house Wednes-
day, March 7. Mrs. Ross and Mrs

+. B. Porter, on Fourth avenue, and

wedding supper was spread and the
other details of the occasion were so ar
ranged as to make the evening IL joyous
one throughout.
Chief Mullen has adopted the tactics
which used to be employed by Wes
jackson when he was chief of police.
Mullen now slips out of his room after
the boys suppose ne has gone to bed and
takes II glide around the various beats.
He is said to have gained much valua-
bic information as to what the members
OF the force are doing, and is thus able to
determine for himself who is attending
to his business and who are the sleepi-
est. Since so much has been said about
Mullen's efficiency or inefiiciency he
has been discovering in his quiet way
about the efficiency of his subordinates.
