The Nominations Made Unanimously and
Amid Enthusiasm.

Fully three hundred people assembled
at Turner Hall last evening in response
to a Call for a caucus of all voters who
did not approve of the arbitrary action
of the present school board. An opposi-
ton caucus was held III Union Hal, the
same evening but the attendance at Tnr-
ner Hall was by far the largest ana is q
good sign of the way things are going
next Saturday. Chas. L. Roos was chos-
en- as presiding oficer and Hugo Fischer
was nominated as secretary. Col. Paen-
der was called upon for an address and
delivered very able one in the German
Language In which he received the hist
DRY of the school fight and pointed out
the mistakes and disgraceful action OF
The present board and its hackers. He
was loudly cheered at various times and
when he had concluded, Chas. Stuebe
gave the causus an impromptu talk that
was full of fine points and cutting argu-
ments- Those present received MI. Stue.
be's remarks with much pleasure and
hearty approval. Albert J. Alvin was
also called upon for an address and gave
one in English which surprised his manv
trends on account of its merit. He dealt
with the shameful nanner In which, Prot.
Nix was removed to satisfy spite and
showed clearly the effects of the course
adopted by tie board. His speech was
logical, convincing and earnest.
The caucus then proceeded to place q
ticket in the field, all being anxious for
a contest and Andrew j. Eckstein. Albert

mously selected. The applause which
followed their endorsement bv the whole
caucus was certainly gratifying to all
present.
They knew and realized that they had
succeeded in getting remark ably strong
ticket and are going in to win. If the
opposition knows what that means, they
lave better understanding of the truth
than they are in the custom of manifest.

Figures and Salaries.

So much has been said regarding the
wonderful work that has been done bv
the present school board in saving money
for the district by reducing salaries, that
we find it timely to present few figures
herewith. 1t is true that certain salaries
have been reduced, but whenever that
was the case, certain other teachers have
invariably received the benefit. The
district has gained nothing. Just read
this.

Hill Wants to Take Up the Free List First
and DutiabIe Articles Aftcrwnrd.
The Senate has finally agreed to continue
the present understanding between the two
sides that general debate shall continue until
Tuesday next from IL to o'clock each day,
after which the various paragraphs Of the
bill shall be taken up.
Then Senator Hill asked il the agreement
would preclude the Senate from taking up
the free list first for consideration. He did
not wish to be foreclosed in making motion
to consider the free list at any time. He
wanted an understanding that nothing agreed
to SHOULD prevent the Senate by majority
vote from proceeding to the free list, IL it
could be done under the rule.
The better way in his opinion. was to first
consider what articles should be free and
what dutiable, and then what the duty
should be.
Senator Harris agreed to Senator Hills
proposition.
Senator Lodge offered proposed amend
ment to the pending tariff bill yesterday for
the imposition of retaliatory rates Of duty
against Great Britain, providing that when

The spacious parlor Offices OF DR.. Damon,
at 608 Twelfth street northwest, continue to
be crowded with anxious people. The fame
OF the doctors wonderful success has gone
abroad far and near, and the afflicted are
awaiting themselves OF what has proven to be
their only reliable means of cure. Here may
be seen the deaf, the rheumatic, the palsied,
and the blind sitting side by side with dys-
peptic, the sufferer from catarrh, and the un-
fortunate whose life has been sapped by the
lingering torments OF spinal curvature. In
short, there is no variety Of disease which
does not find its way to the Offices OF these
gifted magnetic healers. These meE are pos
sessed of power that belongs to no other
men in the curing of disease. 1t is power
which the doctors have been conscious of
since early life, aud, combining with 1t a
thorough training in the science Of medicine
and the treatment Of disease, they have been
able to obtain results unequaed by other
practitioners. DR.. Damon cures all forms Of
female complaints without the use Of instru-
ments or exposure. In fact, no disease in the
whole category Of human ailments is proof
against the doctors magnetic power.
Take no ones word except that of a cured
patient. Let no prejudice stand in the way
OF reason, but whatever your complaint may
be, 1t will be to your interest to consult him.
Magnetism is the greatest boon of this age,
and it is fast supplantipg the old-fashioned

making permanent and lasting cures when

FASHION FANCIES.

A convenient dress for Spring wear is Of

terlined with light canvas to make it stand
out from the waist. For this skirt two waists
can be made-a simple waist of serge for the
morning and another of moire antique. made
tight fitting, with basque commencing at the
hips, and some soft, creamy lace falling from
the neck, making it u handsome dress for al
ternoon wear.
simple little evening waist, which can very
easily be made Mt home, is of silk in any be-
coming color covered with accordion-plaite6
black net put on to the tightly fitting lining
with blouse-like effect. The square neck is
finished with band of fancy trimming. and
the short. pulled sleeves of net have double
frill of lace. This will make an old black silk
look like new.
Embroideries of all kinds will be much
worn. one of the newest being a thick butter
colored creation. partaking somewhat of the
nature of lace, which will be used alike on
dresses of all kinds OF material. A pretty
way of arranging lace on waist is to cross it
