The weather man supplements the
proclamations of the president and the
governor. This promises to be splen-
did day to stay at home and celebrate.
Of the national holidays Thanks
giving is the one most cele-
brated in the home circle, and with
such weather every one will be quite
willing to let his neighbor attend the
religious services. 1t is a holiday for
everybody. All public offices will be
closed. The postal employees share in
delivery being made and the local Of
flee to be opened only from to 10 a. m.
1t will also be a day Of jollity. The
theaters offer extra matinees; there are
concerts and dances without number;
the charitable minded will be enter
tanned by visiting the hospitals and
public institutions. At the hotels the
menu cards will be printed in gaudy
cOlors and the bill of fare augmented
by seasonable edibles. Sojourners at
the clubs will be better fed than usual.
There's a turkey rattle advertised for
every block in the city. The day will
not be unlike previous Thanksgiving
celebrations, nor different probably
from Thanksgiving days to come. 1t
is a welcome holiday, the first Of the
series Of intervals Of relaxation that
makes more endurable the burdens Of
a work-a-day world.
Have you helped make the day one
Of Thanksgiving for your neighbor?

THANKSGIVING AT HOTELS.
Guests VIII BE Treated to Holiday
Fare.

For those who are deprived Of the
pleasures of Thanksgiving cheer at
the family board, the hotels will pro-
vide in a manner calculated to make
them forget their lonely state. All
of the hotels, large and small, will
make a feature Of dinner and in the
big houses the proVerbial turkey Will
by no means have the table to him
self, for he will be so hedged about
with other toothsome things. that he
may be to some extent overlooked. But
generally the turkey will have the
center Of the stage'-will pose as the
piece de resistance. And he will be
supported by all sorts Of cunningly de-
vised dishes. Col. Welz, Of the Ryan,
will provide most deliberately for a
feast that will begin at $50 and con-
tinue until 8. The inner man will be
appealed to by the good things Of a
fine menu, and the while the sensibili-
ties will be delighted by sweet music
furnished by BandmaSter Graves, Third
Regiment orchestra. Col. Carson will
set the table, and a table groantng with
good things, for his guests at 1 o'clock,
and the feast will continue until 3.
Col. Monfort has a houseful of people
for whose delectation he was yeSter-
day devising a bill of fare that should
Guido all his previous efforts. Dinner
will begin at l o'clock at the Windsor.
Maj. Foley, of the Clarendon, will also
spread a fine table. and had a big
house count last night.
Manager Barker, Of the Metropolitan,
has prepared spread Thanksgiving
table d hote menu for this evening.
Members of the Commercial club who
choose to dine within the precincts Of
their eighth-story domicile, will enjoy
a game dinner today. The usual table
d'hote will be supplemented by the
good things that are supposed to be
in season on this particular day of the
wear.

ANOTHER HONOR HIS
JUDGE ~. MCAFFERTY APPOINT
ED ON, THE STATE REFORM
ATORY BOARD.
POSTMASTER SMITH RESIGNS.
GOV. C41OUGH RECOGNIZES THE
WORK OF THE SOUND MONEY
MEN
POSTMASTER SMITH RESIGNS.
Sketch OF the st. Paul Attorney who
Has Had Many RecOgnitiOns of
Merit.

By and with the advice and consent
Of his party advisers Gov. Clough yes
terday appointed a good Democrat to
succeed good Democrat as member
Of the state reformatory board Post
master Smith, who has been a member
of the board since it's organization in
1887, resigned, and Judge J. J. McCaf-
ferty was named as his successor. The
parchment was signed by the governor
yesterday morning, and the appoint
ment and the commission forwarded to
the new member without consultation
or previous notification.
The appointment was made as q. d.
rect recognition Of the good services
of the sound money Democrats in the
late election. Judge McCafferty was
one Of the staunchest members of the
small brigade of Democrats who repu-
dated the Chicago platform. His eff
forts IN the campaign were directed
on the line of sound money. That he
was factor in the defeat of Bryan,
ana the success Of the Republican
ticket there is no dispute That he has
been honored and that the appointment
was intended as an honor Is likewise
regarded as true
Judge McCafferty is one of the best
known lawyers in the state. His large
criminal practice, it is claimed, partic-
uIary hts him as member of the re-
formatOry board.
Honors have come fast to this young
member of the Ramsey county bar.
Born in Lowell Mass, in 1854, he was
admitted to the bar in 1875; spent four
years in Ireland studying the condi-
ton of affairs there. In 1880 he was
elected president of the Land League
OF the United States at the convention
held in New York city. The following
year he went to South America and
was chosen president Of the American
colony at Buenos Ayres, which position
he held until 1884, when he came to st.
Paul. He made rapid Roadway in his
profession in this city, and was ap-
pointed United States commissioner in
1886, which position he still holds.
Judge McCafferty heard the cases that
were brought up when the charges of
census frauds were made against sew
era1 Minneapolis enumerators, and
made several important rulings that
were afterwards carried to the higher
courts and were sustained. His abil-
fty as a judicial adviser was estab-
hshed in all these important cases
When the present city charter went
into effect he was appointed as mem
Der of the assembly branch Of the city
council. Later he has been prominent
in the councils of the Democratic party
in the state and county. AS a dele
gate to the state convention held at
Minneapolis last July he was one of the
three st. Paul delegates who were ex-
patriated and pushed out because OF
his adherence to the sound money
principles of Democracy
The position to which he has been ap-
pointed is one of great Importance. A
more fitting representative of his party
could not have been selected by the
governor.

WANTED, AN ELECTRICIAN.
Mayor Doran Has II Place for Some
Good Man.

Mayor Doran is in something of a.
quandry. This time 1t is who shall be
appointed wire Inspector The coun-
ell at the last meeting passed a reso-
luton directing that with as little de-
lay as possible an ordinance be passed
providing forothe proper rules and reg
ulatiOns to govern the electrical wiz
ing of buildings in ST. Paul Another
part of the same resolution also pro-
vided that an expert electrician be ap-
pointed to supervise the wiring. A
caucus was held on this part of the
resolution Tuesday night, it having
been decided that 1t was Of the utmost
Importance that the expert should be
decided upon first. The reason for
this was explained by several Of the
members on the ground that the ex-
pert who would have charge Of the
work would be the proper person to
fix up the ordinance with the accom-
panying rules and regulations. This
statement came near breaking up the
caucus, for while there were nuIner-
Gus names proposed for the position Of
expert, none of the politicians were
sure that his man could single handed
draft an ordinance which would be ac-
ceptable, although each one felt GER
tain that their candidate would prove
to be valuable as an expert.
It could not be learned yesterday
who the lucky man would be, but ru-
NOR has It that AsseTnblyman Rear
dom's candidate stands the best show
Of being chosen for the place.

MARKETS WE'LL SUPPLIED.
Plenty of Fowl for Thanksgiving
Purposes

There is always a certain degree Of
interest centering in the market prices
of domestic necessities along the line
of natural products. This is greatly
strengthened at the present time oW-
ing to the fact that today is Thanks
giving, period of rest and festal re-
joicing. The different supply centres
about the city will be open this morn
ing to admit of purchases being made
and wants supplied.
In a walk through the markets and
commission stores of the city yester-
day it was seen that the supply of
products was, in general, good. No
scarcity was spoken of in any particu-
lar line. The cold snap at the begin
ming of the week gave rise to the be-
lief that prices would fuctuate some
what with a, tendency to an increase
Soft weather intervening, however
there was practically no change in
ruling quotations, and the probable
difficulty in keeping q fowl over until
the day wanted resulted in slow sales
and quiet markets.
That indispensable feature of a
Thanksgiving menu, the turkey, was
found to be provided in plenty. The
supply is abundant, sufficient for any
unexpected demands. The grade Of
fowl met with is. if anything, superior
to that of last year. Many of the birds
are small but plump and inviting.
Sales on other fowls are quiet Geese
job at s cents and retail at 10 cents
Ducks range from 10 cents wholesale
to 1917 retail; chickens from cents
wholesale to cents retail.
The prices of vegetables continue
reasonable. Apples are being sold for
g. nominal sum, and the demand con-
tinues large. Potatoes are quoted at
IS to 20 cents by the car, and % to %
retail. Parsnips, beets and turnips sell
for so cents per bushel retail. Cabbage
is held at Is to 40 cents per dozen, ac-
cording to the merit Of the heads.
Onions are quoted from 20 to 35 cents
and carrots at % cents per bushel.

day, but not enough so but what a
large number Of families all over the
city of st. Paul went to bed happy
last night in the thought that their
dinner for today was assured The
contributions which reached Secretary
Hutchins yesterday came in with a
will. Great loads of provisions from
the various schools and churches were
driven up to the building, topped off
with two or more small boys from the
school who didn't mind the storm and
who were learning lesson in practical
charity they will not forget Mrs.
Deacon sent a couple of boys from the
Franklin school who had obtained the
use of q horse belonging to the father
of one Of the boys. They had a load
of provisions in the buggy, which they
were taking to a family in a remote
part Of town. When they reached the
house they found they had the wrong
number, but also found at the same
location, a family SO destitute their
boyish hearts quite ached. Leaving
the provision with which they had
come burdened with the family for
whom it had been intended. they
rushed back to the relief rooms and
breathlessly told Mr.. Hutchins of their
discovery. The case was at once
locked up and away the little fellows
drove again all excited and happy to
carry q Thanksgiving dinner to their
proteges. The schools have come to
the front in the work this year and the
Irving school heads the list as usual

The work as carried on in the relief
rooms is very systematic. A list of
names which has been carefully made
out during the last two months and
contains the names, so far as the So
ciety knows, of every worthy poor
family in the city, is kept at hand and
as representatives from each of these
families calls the name is checked and
the person calling given a card, upon
presentation of which in the room op-
posite, they are well provided for. The
list is carefully made out and many
were turned away yesterday because it
seemed best the provision should go to
those more in need of assistance. The
list contains 1873 names, Of which thirty
four were taken by outside parties to
care for, leaving the society 124 to pro-
vide dinners for. Up to o'clock last

NEGRO MELODIES.
The Fisk Jubilee Singers Will Again
BE Heard.

There is a movement and q SYM
pathy in negro melodies that is contag-
ious. Most music is appreciated prin-
cipally by the people who create it;
it is expressive of certain element in
their nature that foreigners cannot re-
spond to. Negro melodies are not ap-
parently subject to this restriction,
which was well attested when the Fisk
Jubilee singers sang to nearly all the
people of the globe with such great
success. The momentum of their songs
carries the feelings and at once places
the listeners sympathy with the singer
1t will be an opportunity, which has
not been offered to the citizens Of ST.
Paul for many years, to hear these
melodies by the best organization of
negros ever brought together. They
will be heard at the Peoples church
tonight.
