Is or is not W. @. o'Malley the regu.
lar Democratic nominee for select
councilman In the Twentieth ward?
This is the question which Is now asi-
tating the citizens Of that part OF
the city,
Mr.. O'Nfalley was nominated at a
meeting held in Corcornn's hall on
Tuesday night, but 1t is contended by
the supporters of the two candidates
whom he defeated. William j. Burns
and Edward Melvin. that the meeting
was not called by the Democratic
ward committeeman. and that his
nomination was not, therefore. in ac-
cordance with the party rules.
Tuesday nights meeting was at
tended by just seventy-two voters,
and after Messrs. Burns, O'Malley and
Melvin had ben nominated II was de-
cided to have those favorinE each can
didate take separate corners and be
counted. The supporters OF Mr.. O'Mal-
ley took one corner, while the sup
portcrs Of both other candidates. rea!-
izing that they would have no show
separately against Mr.. O'Malley,
bumped themselves in the opposite
corner.
There was some little dispute as to
the result OF the count. hut 1t was
finally decided to be 3S to 81 in favor
of Mr.. O'Malley. who was declared
nominated. Just who would have
been declared the winner in case the
opposite corner contained majority
of the voters present is an open dues-
tion.
At any rate. much dissatisfaction
exists as the result of the meeting,
and it is probable that each pros
pective candidate will have little eau
Gus of his own within these next few
days. The first of these is announced
for tonight, when a meeting will be
held in Phillips hall on Fig street

Cool and MethOdicaI.

A lawyer who worthily bears a dis
name occupies an old fash
Toned mansion on the edge of New
York. His sister, who lives with him,
tells laughable story, which is re-
ported in Harper's Round Table, illus
trating his GOODNESS and love of method.
Recently his sister tiptoed into his
room some time after midnight and
told him she thought burglars were in
the house. The lawyer put on his dress
ing gown and went down stairs.
In the back hall he found a rough
looking man trying to open a door that
led into the back yard The burglar
had unlocked the door and was pulling
at it with all his might. The lawyer,
seeing the robbers predicament. called
to him:
1T does not open that way, you idiot!
It slides back"

Mr.. Major, the famous cement man of
New York, explains some very interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but great
many do not know why. The simple
reason is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that
one of the elements of his cement costs
1915 pound, and another costs S265 a
gallon, while large share of the so, call
ed cements and liquid glue upon the
market are nothing more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved in water or citric
acid, and, in some cases. altered slightly
in color and odor by the addition of
cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents
and twenty live cents bottle, and when
a dealer tries to sell a substitute you can
depend upon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors cement is as
much as any dealer ought to make on
any cement. And this is doubly true in
view of the fact that each dealer gets his
share of the benefit of Mr. Majors ad-
vertising, which now amounts to over
$4,000 month throughout the country.
Established in 1876.
Insist on having Majors. Do not &C
cept any off hand advice from druggist,

be likely to find that you are good deal
