FOR THE PRES ENT
The Comptroller and Treasurer's
Stats Will Be Retained.

J. J. McCardy spent most of yester-
day III the comptrolier'S office getting
posted upon the routine business and
methods of the Office. OF course, he
has mu!tifarious reforms" in mind
that he proposes to inaugurate early in
hi, administration. He is inocculated
with a lot OF ideas that he absorbed
while in Detroit and other cities;
but, although he will go into
office this morning, he will prob
ably not attempt any OF his
reform schemes for time. Indeed,
it is more than evident that it is his
purpose to proceed upon the time
honored system of the Office. at least
fOrthe present month, as he has asked
the present corps of clerks to remain
with him for the time being.
Conrad Miller will also retain the
present clerical force That is, he will
step into the Office of city treasurer
today and dill of Mr.. Refs employees will
remain. 80.

MISTAKES IN PROPOSING.
Why Four Unfortunate Men We're
Refused When They Might Have
Been Accented. 4

Been Accepted.
The !. S. y. S. club was talking the
matter over a few evenings ago, and
one woman held the floor.
"Of course, Charles case has brought
the matter forcibly before me just
now." she said, mournfully; "but l al
ways have contended that men don't
know when and how to propose. Pye
refused at least three whom I'd have
married if they had asked me at the
right time"
A woman in brown ulster, who sat
off in one corner, suggested that 1t
might have been bad policy to marry
all of them. but the speaker treated q this
remark with the contempt it deser rived,
says the New York World. q
''Charlie, you know" she went on.
poured the story of his passion into my
ear at Harrigan's theater during a per-
formance of the Last of the Hogans,"i
and while the Knights of the Mystic
Shrine were singing their touching
lay. He said it reminded him that he
had been w0rshiplng at a certain shrine,
etc. refused him on the spot.
"a man whom I'll call George selected
a particularly cold evening last month,
when the mercury was burrowing In
the ground, and made his little speech
on my front steps. My teeth were chat
tering, my nose was red. | had cold IN
the head. and it was getting worse every
minute, My refusal was kind but
prompt"
my experience was worse than that"
said another member. The youth pro-
posed 10 me at supper, after the theater.
and lis remarks were varied by bites OF
bread and butter, ard by delicate atten-
tiOnS in the way OF urging food upon
me. | actually became so confused be-
fore he got through that l didn't know
whether he was offering me himself or.
the cold chicken. Anyhow. | declined
them both. l want a man who can stop
eating long enough to ask woman to
be his wife"
The most interesting proposal of my
experience" remarked a third, was
that OF an absent-minded young man
who used notes. l was giving little
reception, and, of course, my time was
much occupied. The young man
realized that this would be the case,
and to facilitate matters, ne brought
with him memorandum. | afterwards
found it Oh the floor, where he had
dropped it in his agitation. J
Mention raise in salary.
"Mention loneliness.
Mention pleasures in her society. ~
Mention prospects from Uncle Jim.
"Never loved before.
Propose.
''I'm being a sister to him now"
you're all very critical" said the
president. "but what do you think
man ought to do?''
''He should exercise tact" said one.
''He should wait until the two are
alone, with no chance of interruption,
said another.
He should be sure that the surround
ings are i'll harmony with the situation"
''He should give his undivided atten-
ton to the woman"
Above all this rose the quiet voice Of
a little woman who had not spoken be-
fore.
1.-The man who doesn't propose at the
right time is exasperating," she SAID
softly. but what of the man who
doesn't propose at all?'
There was a sudden calm, and over
the face of every member settled a look
of patient suffering. ea

The old regime the administration of
affairs under the precepts of JetferSonian
simplicity in ST. Paul-ceaSed practi-
callv last evening. The two coordinate
branches of the legislature met and
wound up such pending legislation as
could be readily disposed of. There
was no oStentatiou, and there was, like
wise. an absence of lamentation at the
signal changes about to be reached in
the pages OF the political history of the
states capital.
1t was purely business session in
each instance. First the board of
aldermen met, and they occupied
mucn more time than the as
Sembly in clearing up the table.
Just why this was true is scarcely COM
prehenSible, for there was really moth
ing of great moment or of particular
controversy, save possibly the simple
award of a seeOnd-rate sewer contract.
The committee Oh ways and means. -
whom had been referred the matter,
reported rather YOluminously that the
charter prohibitOry clause did not apply
TO J. II. Mcnamara, the lowest bidder,
for building sewers in Victoria and
Pine streets, but there IS a feeling
against this contractor, eSp0uSed by
Aid. Melady and Copeland, that
sutficed to defeat the option
of the majority. The committee
reported in favor of awarding the con-
tract, but the report lacked the two
thirds vote of the entire body, and was,
consequently laid low. Mr.. Mcnamara
was present, and made the statement
that lie had no proprietary connection
with the contract that has been an
nulled by the council-the contract for
q sewer i'll Congress Street-and that he
should not, DOR could he be legally
barred from competing for other bids.
Nevertheless, Aldermen Copeland and
Melady succeeded i'll enliS.ing AID.
Gehan, and the award was lost and will
come before the new body.
There was q communication from
Mayor Smith that should be read with
especial interest by every citizen ard
taxpayer. 1t is an answer to not only

Transient Chatter and General

A large number of the Iowa club is
putting up in st. Paul. There are about
400 in the club, and they represe ent
every county in the state. The club
was made up of names suggested by
chairmeE of the various county COM
mittees. No effort was made to organ
iZe it in the interests of either Blaine or
Harrison. The club has with it the
state band, one of the finest in the coun-
try, and is composed of twenty-five
pieces. H. q. Mcmillan, of Rock Rapids,
is a member of the same club, and is
Blaine supporter. He said poll of the
club was partially made yesterday.
which shows that 233 are for Blaine, 5
for Allison and for Mckinley. =
G. W. Terrell, real estate broker and
merchant of Des Moines. is also mem
Der of the Iowa club. He stated yes
terday that about one-half of the club
is for Harrison. and that the Repub-
licans of the state are about equally
divided between Harrison and Blaine.
In speaking OF the enthusiasts of the
club on its arrival yesterday he said:
.'Many people seemed to get the idea
that 1t is a Blaine club. This is not true.
The members or the club are great adj
-mirers of Clarkson, and the hurrah was
more of a. compliment to Clarkson than
Blaine.~2 He also said that if Harrison
is not Nominated on the first ballot the
delegation will probably. be. for
Blame. Gov. Boies, he said, has been
very popltar = in Iowa, and would
doubtless Carry the state against
Blame, HARRISON OF any one else if nom
mated. He regarded Gov. BOies as in
vincible in the state, and the people
would support him for president through
state pride, irrespective of party. He is
very popular with the working people,
as well as the business men, and is
wonderful campaigner.
