FULFILLING OVER JACKSON.
Administration Does Not Know
When to Dump Him.

It has been decided by the three members
OF the fire board recently appointed by Mayor
Doran that Chief Jackson will have to go.
Just when Jackson will be called upon to
tender his resignation or be thrown out has
not been settled upon there being some ques-
ton as to whether it would be good politics
to wait until after election or to have the
change made at once. When this Is decided
the machinery will be set going and a new
man selected. Rumor has 1t that Hart N.
Cook, now second assistant chief, will be pro-
NOTED to Jackson's place, and that two OF
the three members recently appointed have
announced for him. Ex-Chief Black, who is
now at Duluth. has been hustiing, 1t Is
claimed. to get his old job back, and runs
down from Duluth every day or so to fix up
his fences. The latest report is that W. R.
Shaw. the lumberman from the Sixth ward
fs a candidate for the position of chief of the
fire department, and that he has the backing
of the mayor and number of hustling poll
ticians. In this connection 1t Is stated that
while Assistant Chief Cook may be selected
to step into the position now occupied by
Jackson. the promotion will only be a tenn
porary one, and that Shaw WILL in the course
OF few months. be given charge of the de-
partment. The insurance men, who generally
have considerable to say about the selection
of chief Of the fire department, say that if
Jackson Is to be deposed it would be to the
ctty's interest to have an experienced fire.
fighter secured for the place, even II it ne
cessitates going to Chicago or New York for
the new man. The going out of the CITY to
secure man to take charge of the salvage
corps Is cited showing that 1t pays to
have experienced men in charge of such an
important branch of the city government az

MADE A FAST RUN.
McFndden's Flats Were Nearly Stuck
in the Snow.

Trains from Chicago on all the roads were
DELAYED Yesterday by the blizzard which put
the territory between Chicago and Waukesha,
WIS. under covering of snow two feet deep.
The limited on the Omaha, due In st. PAU
at 7:S0 yesterday morning. was two hours
late and the noon train, due here at H:55,
was the same length Of time behind. The Of
fcials report heavy fall of snow south OF
Waukesha, but no trouble this side OF that
point. The ''McFadden's Row OF Flats" COM
pany which opened at the Grand last even
ing, had q close call, and had 1t not been
for the enterprise Of the Omaha officials the
company would not have able to open In this
City last night. The company left Milwau-
kee over the Northwestern, but the storm de-
layed the train, and 1t was o'clock yesterday
afternoon when Elroy was reached. This ap-
peared to settle the question Of reaching st.
Paul in time for the evening performance,
but the train officials were given orders to
send the company on a special, and at 3:11 a
train consisting Of a baggage car and one
coach left Elroy for st. Paul. The special
arrived at the union depot at 7:39. making
eight minutes. The special train ran from
Altoona to Hudson without stop. and averaged
about forty-fve miles an hour for the entire
distance, although at times these figures were
exceeded, there was slight delay from a
hot box after leaving Elroy and some time
was lost exchanging engines at Altoona.
The morning train on the Milwaukee was
twenty minutes late, and the fast mail did
not arrive until after o'clock. being two
hours and over behind schedule time. Train
men on the Milwaukee report the storm as
very severe between Chicago and Milwaukee
and the snow two and three feet deep.

MAILER PAYS A VISIT,
Former Local Business Man Pays n
Short Call.

A figure quite familiar to those peo-
pie who lived in st. Paul ten years ago
has been for the past day or two, and
may still be, seen at the Ryan in the
person of J. H. Mailer for many years
engaged in the carriage business in
this city.
The advent of the bicycle, with the
consequent decrease in demand for or
binary vehicles, and especially those
which found favor with young men,
caused the Mailer concern. like many
others, to quit Dizziness. Mr. Mailer
is a resident Of Chicago now, where
he lives with his family, and he seems
to have lost none Of the push and en-
ergy which marked his early business
career here. He Is in the brokerage
business on Randolph street, and deals
in commercial paper, stocks, etc
Since he left here he organized quite
a successful bicycle concern, and is in
terested in a number of other enter
prises, one of which has brought him
to St Paul.

CINGREss OF MOTHERS.

A Congress Of mothers was held in this
country last year which attracted a good
deal Of attention and elected consider
able comment Another has just been
held in Washington. The purpose of
such convention is undoubtedly laud-
able and cOmmendable one, to bring to-
gether as many of the mothers as pOssi-
Bile for consultation and mutual inter
change of ideas. But III should really be
called a congress for mothers instead of
a congress of mothers, as it is a notable
fact that those who lectured in last years
convention upon methods for bringing up
children were childless or splnsters, and
on the program for this year were four
unmarried women and six men-nOt a
or married woman even, was on
the program as speaker. The speakers
were undoubtedly capable and instruc-
tive, but in a congress OF mothers some
Of the good old experience and advice
from mothers who have actually and sue
cessfully raised large families of children
would be most timely and good.

WHY NOT A STATE COMMERCIAL CLUB {?

In the last year or so quite a number
of Kansas cities have organized CONNER
cial clubs which have been effective in
promoting the legitimate growth of the
town. Are there not enough of these
clubs in the State to form a State Orga-
nization, not only for State work but as
we'll for mutual advantage?
If such plan is feasible the initiative
should come from the Topeka CONNER
cial Club, or perhaps from the Topeka
and Pittsburg clubs together, as they are
the two largest organizations. If feasible
the plan would be easy of arrangement if
some commercial club will take the mat
ter up officially.
