MIR. HAAS STAFF.
Henry Smith Secures the Position
of Clerk

Building Inspector Haas put in Yesterday
shaking hands with candidates for positions
IN MS ctlice and their friends, and holding
whispered conversations with several hun
dred politicians Monday night the building
inspector promised ASsemblyman Johnson
and Aid Kaldunsd that D. J. Harrington Of
the Eighth ward, would be given the position
Of plumbing inspector Yesterday ncCn a
delegation from the trades and labor ASSEM-
bly, and labor organizations called on Mr.
Haas and insisted that j. A. McOuulan bs
given the position instead of Harrington II
was pointed out by the delegation that Har-
rington was member Of the state plumbing
BOARD ana there was no particular need OF
heaplng hcnors on one man. Objection was
also made to the appointment of Harring-
ton owing to the trouble with non-union EN-
ployes. Mr. Haas explained the situation to
the delegation, and the promise ne had made
TO the council representatives from tho
Eighth ward. The delegation hustled out to
square up the matter, and last evening It was
the place
There was also a hitch In the selection OF
clerk, the position now filed by J. II. Bell
George II. Golfer seemed to have the call
out developments weakened his case 1t finally
came to test Of strength between Henry
Johns on one side and Doc" Schiffman, Eli
warner and several other politicians on the
other. The latter insisted that the position
OF clerk be given to Henry Smith, of the
Fourth ward. There was all kinds of talk
made by the big men" on both sides but
tho Schiffman- Warner combination carried
were thrown down, and, although the an
nouncement has not been Officially made
Smith will get the place.
Mr. Haas gave out last evening that he had
selected four of the six assistants who will
be employed in his office. Under Building In
spector Kingsley but five assistants were en-
ployed in the office, and the tax budget for
1898 Just passed provides only for that num-
Der. The aggregate salaries of the assist
ants. outside of the inspector, is placed at
$4,000. but Mr.. Haas has figured it out that
the amount allowed for salaries can be d.
Vided up among six men better than five,
and also give him another hole to put plug
in.
John Christensen. of the Sixth ward and
John Helnlein, OF the Third ward are named
as assistant inspectors, and will succeed J.
H. Healey and F. w. Rauen. Christensen
was in the office under Building Inspector
Gauger and Heinlein is a well known con-
tractor.
James Silk, the elevator inspector. succeeds
himself in that position. Leslie Parlin is the
additional inspector who will be given place
providing the appropriation for five assistant
inspectors can be divided up among six. AS
to the plumbing inspector and clerk, Mr..
Haas has not decided. but McQuilIan and
Smith will undoubtedly be named, possibly
today.

CONCERT OF MUCH MERIT.
That Given att the Park Congrega-
tionaI Church.

tlOhaL CIurchs
An excellent programme was given last
a number Of musical people, whose efforts
were easily worthy a larger audience than
that which hardly tested the capacity of the
building The programme was given under
assisted by Misses Katherine Richards Gordon
and Ella Richards, Franklin Krieger. and
several Of his pupils; Miss Mile Pottgieser,
Percy Churchill and Harry George Prof
Onet added several vocal selections himself
Miss Richards opened the programme with
the Bach-Tausig Toccata and Fugue In D
minor. and did full justice to the big num-
Der. especially in the heavier passages. Miss
Richards is so we'll and favorably known
among St. Paul music lovers that it seems
almost unnecessary to chant her praises
Fantasia opus 40, and responded to a well-de-
served encore with somewhat intricate bar
carole by Leschitzky. The vocal numbers
were well given, and ELECTED vigorous ap-
plause Miss Gordon first sang Robert Schu-
mans "Ltebesgarten" with Prof Onet. Her
solo was the soprano aria from Leonca-
vallo's quaint opera, II Pagliacci." and was
sung with rare dramatic expression. Being
called upon for an extra number, Miss Cor
don sang dainty ballad by Chaminade called
Were I a Gardener" Miss Mil1ie Pottgfeser
divided honors with Miss Gordon. her rich
sympathetic contralto being heard to good
advantage in Saint Saens' my Heart at Thy
Sweet Voice. Miss Pottgieser, who is a
comparatively young singer, uses her voice
ter, when it is considered she is a low con-
tralto. And she sings even the fiorid por-
| lions with little apparent effort. For an en-
core she selected the Pages song from Mey-
erbeer's opera, Lies Huguenots," and sang it
well.
Prof. Onet was heard in that somewhat
trying tenor aria from Mozart's Don Clio
vanni," I'll Mic Tesoro In Tanto," so rarely
given, calling. as it does. for the lyric and
tenor robusto quality.
Mr.. onet, It may be said, sang the diff
cult composition very correctly, but was
heard to better advantage In a trio Of num-
bers further down on thescard, including bits
by Schubert, Suppes and Tosti. Percy Church
ILL., basso. sang Mephfsto's serenade from
Faust" The musical menu was brought to
a close by the rsnditioH of the quartette
from the garden scene In the second act of
Faust" done by Misses Gordon and Pott-
gieser, and Messrs. Percy Churchill and
Harry George. This quartette taxes the abil-
ity of professionals, and It is fair criticism
to say that it was fairly well given.
Much of the pleasure Of the evening was
due to the musicianly accompaniment Of
Franklin Krieger.

FOR SWEET CHARITY.
Enjoyable birthday Party Given Mt
Standard Hall,

Society joined hands with sweet charity
last evening at Standard hall, and danced
away golden hours in the happy sentiment of
the cause they were furthering, and the very
commendable efforts of the young ladies.
The Young Ladies Aid society gave an in
formal ball, or rather a birthday party, and
it was like birthday party of whole lot Of
people, because every one was supposed to
have birthday during the evening. that Is,
long enough to hand over the little colored
silk bags with ribbons as strings, which the
young ladies had made for the purpose of re-
ceiving as many pennies the person was
old. Every one who was fortunate enough to
be ION the list" received one, and, of course,
some of the crusty old bachelors objected.
but they exchanged their bags with some one
else, and those who did not put five Bryan
pennies into the bag to avoid detection. When
the young ladies came to open the bags they
found that several of these old bachelors had
put in five silver dollars. OF course the young
ladies didn't care, as 1t was all to go to a
most worthy object, and was all to be given
in sweet charity's name The young ladies
rendered to their gentleman friends a terpsi-
chprean treat.
The committee of young ladies who origi-
mated the unique idea of the party was made
uD as follows: Miss Eugene Stern. chairman;
Miss Laura Woodman. Miss Helen Cohn,
Miss Flora Worth. Miss Lowensteln. The
young ladies' society realized something like
$500 on the party.
