II was reported yesterday that dele
gauon from the council were anxious TO
join the party which will go to San Fran
cisco to welcome the Thirteenth regiment
when 1t arrives from Manila num-
Der of the aldermen and assemblymen
were in consultation with City Clerk Jen-
sen about the trip, but the point was
made that the comptroller would not
audit the expenses of the party out of
the emergency fund. and owing to this
snas the chances are that the city fathers
will not join the welcoming delegation
Comptroller McCardy said last even
ing that he had not heard anything about
the tunket of the aldermen to the coast
when the Thirteenth returned He under
stood that there was some talk about
taking a part of the money now in the
hands of the mayor to make I'D the
amount necessary to secure free trans

San Francisco to st. Paul, and PERSONAL
ly he favored such action.

badges and the proceeds of the badges

members of the police force of this city
and persons having charge Of the sale
in the country districts will be called
upon to hand in their final reports la
ter on.
INDUSTRY OF THE LADIES.
1t is a noticeable fact that the number
of ladies wearing badges has increased
remarkably in the last day or two. The
| increase of sales among the ladies Is to
be attributed In a very large measure
to the industry of Miss Clara Sommers
who has assumed charge Of this impor-
tant branch of the work. Among the
ladies who reported excellent results yes
| terday to Miss Sommers were the fol-
| lowing: Mrs. Cora Johnson, Miss Myr-
tie Brack, Miss Hasenwinkle, Mrs. K. H.

BOYS AND GIRLS TOGETHER.
The boys and girls have taken hold of
the good work with a will and are not
only selling but purchasing a surprising
number of badges. George ]. Smith,
confectioner. sent over yesterday after
noon to the Commercial club rooms re-
quest for fifteen more boys badges. Sec
retary Stine, who has been working day
and night in CONJUNCTION with President
Hamlin in the interests of the fund.-
promptly sent Mr.. Smith the required
number. Similar orders were filed late
yesterday afternoon. The sale of chill
dren's badges has. on the whole, fur
nished one of the most agreeable sur
prises of the movement.
