ENTERPRIsING YOUTH.
Sells Combs and Earns an Honest
Living

Living.
A bright little boy of twelve years
walked into a downtown Office yester-
day afternoon, and, taking off his we'll
worn cap. asked: would any of you
gentlemen like to buy pocket comb?
They are only 10 cents apiece and cheap
at that price," The inquiry was made
III such an honest and business-like
way that the gentlemen present at
once became interested in the little
fellow and purchased number of his
combs.
AS the lad was about to leave the
room he was asked how much he made
on the articles and what he was going
to do with the money. "Well," said he,
Il get them at cents each and sell
them for 10. J. took out dozen and a
half and have only four left. l will sell
them before long, and then I'll have 80
cents to take home to mother, and tell
you she will be glad to get it. for we
need money awful bad"
There is an object lesson for you,"
remarked one of the gentlemen. IF
everybody who is out of employment
would pitch in and get down to business
as that boy has done, there would not
be half the suffering that there is. Now
did not want that pocket comb, but
when L see such an honest endeavor to
get an honest penny like to help all
can"

AN ENTERTAINMENT
To Be Given by the Tots of the
Kindergartens.

The children of the public schools,
especially the little tots Of the kinder
gartens, are preparing to celebrate in a
moderate way before disbanding for the
Christmas holidays. Programmes. COM
posed Of little contributions by the in
fants themselves seem to be the order
of the day. and Friday there will be
only short morning session in the
schools, devoted to the Christ
mas trees and short entertainment.
In addition to furnishing entertainment
for each other and themselves, the chill
dren Will also do something in the way
of helping to brighten the holiday sea-
son for those less fortunate than them
selves, and, although no large effort
like the Thanksgiving one will be
made, individual schools will contribute
their mite to assist either some organ
lied charity, or perhaps to relieve indi-
vidual cases. The children are in this
way taught to give and not to expect to
have merry Christmas only for them
selves.

The CAUCUS ADJOURNED.
J0HNS0N'S FRIENDS ROAST I'M EVEN
MG PAPER.
MEET AGAIN FRIDAY EVENING.

Candidate for Building In
spector Held Behind Barred
Doors = Republican Evening
Paper Scored for Attacks on G.
a. Johnson-FamilyS quabbie.
The Republican caucus called to Sc
lect candidate for building Inspector
was held yesterday afternoon in lodge
room in Odd Fellows hall. Twelve of
the fifteen Republican members of the
council attended, those present being
Aid. Copeland, Franklin, Markham,
Montgomery and Zimmerman, and AS
semblymen Deran. johnson, Lightner,
Readon, Sandell, Schultz and Wolter-
stortf. The absentees were Assem- bly,
man DAILY, and Aid. Hickman and Jen-
Sen.
Half an hour was spent behind closed
doors, and when an adjournment was
taken the members refused to talk,
each and ali of them saying that an
agreement had been made that their
action should not be made public. 1t
was learned, however, that owing TO
the absence of the three members men-
toned no action was taken which would
indicate how the vote on cand idates
would stand. The adherentS of Gates
A. johnson were opposed to an adjourn
ment, but it would appear that they
were not in suffi cient force to prevent
the action, as an adjournment was
taken to Friday evening at 1880 O'clock
at the same place.
The opposition to the nomination and
election of Gates A. johnson made by
one of the administration organs has
aroused the ire of the johnson cohorts,
and anything but complimentary allu-
sons are made regarding the editor and
publisher of the paper. Assemblym an
johnson, In speaking of the attack last
evening, said hewas not aware that any
one person carried the Republican
party about and could dictate what
action the party or its members should
take. He had been handed requests
for the election Of Gates A. johnson
signed by all the members of the Repub-
llcan city committee, and also by forty
three prominent Republicans of his
ward. and, so far as he was concerned,
he would take these as better indica-
ton Of the wishes of the Republican
party than the wild rantings of an I'm.
naturalized foreigner.
Another member of the council, who,
up to the present time, has not intimated
who he would support for building in
| spector, explained that the violent op-
position to the election of Gates A.
johnson was owing to the fact that a
dark horse in the person of Charles E.
JOY is slated for the office. Mr.. Joy is
prominent architect and member of
the firm of Willard s. Joy, with offices
in the builders exchange.
Assemblyman Reardon, asked last
evening as to what action had been
taken by the caucus, said he was not al
liberty to make any statements, but that
his candidate for the Office was III. Ii.
| Fuller.

HISTORICAL REGRETS.
Resolutions Upon j. Fletcher
Williams

w iiiiamS.
At the meeting OF the Historical So
cietY of Dec. IL the library committee
reported the following resolutions,
which were unanimously adopted:
That i'll accepting j. Fletcher Will
lamS resignation of the Office of secre-
tary and librarian of the Minnesota
Historical society, the executive council
hereby testify their high appreciation
OF his efficient and faithful services
through the long period of his connec-
ton with the society, and their extreme
regret that considerations of health
have compelled him to lay down the
burdens of his Office.
10 Mr.. Williams more than to all
others the society owes its present pros
perity and the honorable position to
which it has attained among the libra
rieS of its class in the United States.
Becoming its secretary in the year of
1867, when it had only name, hardly
habltation, his asSiduous and intelli-
gent labOrs leave it in 1898 with a
library of over $1,000 volumes. and hav-
ing i'll that time published many vol
umes of its collections as its cOntribu-
tons to the history of the Northwest.
1t can hardly fall to the lot of any
successor of Mr.. Williams to serve the
society so proftaDly during SO long and
Interesting period.
We part with him as secretary and
librarian with sincere regret. Our
best wishes and those Of every
member and friend of the society go
with him and the hope that renewed
health may bless him, and
that we may yet enjoy for many
years his aid and counsel as member
in upbuilding the future of the Mime
sofa Historical society.
Signed: Alex Ramsey, president;
w. K. Marshall, secretary: H. P. Up
ham, John Espy, n. z. Langford, Will

Dear Sir and Comrade: BY reference
in today's Sunday GLOBE and Press,
pages three and eleven respectively,
you will find that we have organized a
veteran turkey combine.
The object of said combination is to
warm the heart or line the stomach of
some old veteran, his widow or orphan,
on Christmas day, with turkey and its
cOncomitants, and have them receive
the same in the light of Christmas
present from au old comrade, and not
as charity received and bestowed.
The initiation fee to said combine
will be one turkey, or its equivalent,
which will constitute you life member,
and which, if forwarded to my Office on
or DrlOr to SATURDAY. Dec % inst will
find its way to the aforementioned vet
GRAMS stomach. Send in the names of
any worthy veteran-or widow-and l
will send them a turkey for Christmas.
Most fraternally yours,
CHARLES j. STEES, Quartermaster.
st. Paul, Dec. II.
The letter is generously responded to,
and although many of the donors have
subscribed literally to the various lists
going around for "sweet charity's
stake,' still they always respond to
comrades call,

CHRISTMAS TALE.
Story Founded Upon Fact-Not a
Fiction.

story rounded Upon Fact-Not a
Fiction.
A new holiday story has come to light
which may serve to amuse parents. A
little st. Paul boy, whose faith in Santa
Claus is supreme, asked his mother how
he could get word to old Kris Kringle to
let him know just what presents he
would like to have on Christmas day.
His mother suggested that he write
letter and place it in the fireplace The
young hopeful subscribed at once to the
idea and acted ugon it. In few days
he received letter purporting to come
from the Jolly old saint. He read 1t
through carefully, and, though its con-
tents were apparently satisfactory, still
he was distrustful. Finally he aston
ished his mother by saying: "It's very
funny, mamma, but Santa Claus writ
ing looks just like yours" The mother
explained the embarrassing matter by
saying that Santa Claus was very clever
with his pen and could initiate the
writing of any one he chose.

to Lumbermen.
The Northwestern lumbermen met
yesterday at the Merchants and talked
over the prospects for the cut of logs
this winter. The amount of snow and
exceedingly favorable season caused the
lumbermen to feel greatly encouraged
that there will be larger cut than was
thought best during the fall. Some of
the companies have big camps of men
already at work. One of the gentlemen
present at the meeting was asked what
was done, and his reply was: Business
matters only, and nothing in which the
public is interested"
