Or. BELL IS The man.
Flour City Democrats Want
Him for the Next
Mayor.
JUDICIAL COMMITTEES MEET
Democrats and Populists Fail
to Arrive at q Definite
Decision.
JUDICIAL COMMITTEES NEE
BRICK FOR'NICOLLET AVENUE
The Council Finally Comes
Down to Business and
Awards the Contract.

The Minneapolis Democrats have at
last settled on their candidate for mayor.
The latest choice and most definite
selection yet is DR.. j. w. Bell, at pres
ent state senator from the Thirty-third
district. While DR.. Bell does not say he
Will accept the nomination, the leading
Democrats of the city have united on
hlm.an have determined to settle down
to business and make him take it. He
says that he believes some better candi-
date can be found, bat the others seem
to think differently, and at the present
writing it is more than an even thing
that he gets the nomination.
A meeting was held yesterday FORE
noon, which was we'll attended BY re.
preventative Democrats, and nearly
every ward was represented. The situa-
ton was thoroughly discussed aud Dr.
Bell was decided on. In order that there
might be no doubt in the matter, an
adjournment was taken until yesterday
afternoon, and in the meantime those
who were present at the first meeting
spent their time looking up the senti-
ment. They found that DR.. Bells name
met with most cordial reception, and
when the meeting was called to order in
the afternoon 1t was found that the
sentiment was unanimous in favor of
him, and the public may expect to see
Bell boom from now on.
1t Is believed by many that it will be
repetition Of the Winston matter four
years ago, when P. B. Winston refused
to take a nomination for mayor up to
the last momelt, but accepted when it
was thrust upon him. This is the plan
with DR.. Bell, and he is considered the
next mayor by the Democrats, although
at present he will tell every one that he
is not candidate. The Democratic
county candidates met last evening and
the Bell matter was brought up. among
other things. and it was found that the
selection was perfectly satisfactory to
them.
The meeting OF the candidates was
held at the Hennepin League rooms In
the New York Lie building, and among
those present were: f. q. Winston, P.
B. Winston, George Ledgerwood, A,
Phillips,J. l.. Kiichli, Dir. W. j. Byrnes,
Jacob Stoft. S. A. Thomas, i. A.
Stevens and others. The meeting was
called for the purpose of suggesting
names for the county committee, and
While considerable Roadway was made
there is nothing as yet that can be given
out for publication. +. q. Winston was
asked to serve as chairman, but he de.
cllned, aud several others were sug.
gested. Another meeting will he held

Origin of the Dollar Mark.

Not less than q score of theories have
been advanced as to the origin of the
dollar mark ($). OF these the st.
Louis Republic believes the following
to be the most plausible:
1. That it is o combination of the
"U. s." the initials of the United
States.
2. That it is n modification of the
figure 8, the dollar formally called a
''piece of eight"
8. That it is derived from a repre-
sentation of the Pillars of Hercules,
consisting of two needle-like towers or
pillars connected with a scroll. The
old Spanish coins marked with the pill
lar device were frequently referred to
as 'tpillar dollars"
4. That it is a combination of "I.
g." the ancient Roman mark 0 fmoney
unit.
s. That it is a combination of p. and
5. from peso duro, signifying "hard
dollar" In Spanish accounts peso is
contracted by writing the 8 over the
2 and placing it after the sum.
According to one writer the symbol
of the dollar is a monogram of the let
ters ''V," ''S" and 81" the dollar be-
ing originally a ''thaler" coined in the
valley of SAINT Joach:~, noHr1.a, and
known as a Joachim thaler," and the
monogram the initials of the words,
"Valley SAINT Joachim" The editor
Of the London Whitehall Review, a
very able writer, in giving his opinion
of "Reason No. 3, as given above, says:
''The American symbol for dollar is
taken from the Spanish dollar, and the
origin of the sign, of course, must be
looked for in associations of Spanish
coins. On the reverse side of the
Spanish dollar is a representation OF
the Pillars of Hercules, and around
each pillar is a scroll with the inscrip-
ton plus ultra This device in course
Of time has degenerated into the sign
which at present stands for American
as well as Spanish dollars, s. The
scroll around the pillars represent the
two serpents sent by Juno to destroy
Hercules in his cradle"

A Monster Petrified Whale.

Leon del Mar, q Frenchman at
tached to the surveying corps con-
hected with the National Museum, San
Pose, Costa Rica, reports a find OF
hqual OF greater value than the Mon
Eezuma (Col.), fossilized monster.
Leo's find is not q "Dinosaur" or other
half mythical creature which the lapse
bf ages has transformed into stone,
put a common everyday whale, ZIG
feet in length, with bones minerallzed
until they are as hard as jasper and as
heavy as lead. The "Museo" officials
pre- in a q~uandary, and are debating
rs to which would be the cheapest, to
move their museum buildings over onto
the mountain range where the petri-
fed monster lies, or to try to transfer
his ainty remains to the Costa Rlcan
capital.
The point selected by this antedi-
luvian giant when he concluded to
give up the ghost, along about the
time of the close of the c~retaceous or
some other geological period, is a rift
between two mountain peaks, seventy.
two miles from San Jose and $500 feet
above sea level. There must have been
