mr.. S('HNEnz[RNASS|CK
employees OF FIRE ALARM Of
FICE GAIN A RE-
sPITB
CARY MAKES A STATEMENT
Says They Agreed to Stand Together
Only In the Event of Unjust
Political Decapi-
tatiOns.

The meeting of the fire board, called
for last evening, to investigate the charg-
es preferred against the employees of the
fire alarm office, failed of consummatfon.
After waiting fully half hour for Com
missioner Schweitzer, the leader of the
movement, adjournment had to be taken,
and all present were instructed to be
present at the next meeting, to be held
on the 10Th.
The absence of Commissioner Schweit-
ger was credited to sickness, a telephone
message to this effect reaching the mem
bers after they had waited a consider
able length of time. The employees of
the fire alarm department, including Supt.
Cary, were present, but they had nothing
to say, beyond jokingly passing on the
killing that seemed imminent. 1t was
reported that the employees had agreed to
ignore the whole thing by failing to at
tend but their presence discredited the
rumor.
According to the statement of Supt.
Carey, a meeting of the. employees was
held, but no determination was reached
to quit in a body in case one of their
number was removed They decided to
all stand together in case removals were
made without cause and on political
grounds only.
Chief Jackson, the new head of the de-
partment will assume charge today. He
was around yesterday becoming acquaint-
ed with the office, and will enter upon
his new duties without delay. The per-
sonnet Of the department as far as known
will not be changed

CARLSON WANTS A WIFE
APPEALS TO CITY OFFICIALS TO
HELP HIM FIND ONE.

Seth. Carlson, innocent looking. an6
with the odor of. new nown nav and
russell apples permeating the atmosphere
that surrounded him. was caller at the
the city hall yesterday to see IL the Of
hcials there could aid him in the secur-
ing of wife.
Carlson, who gave his address as Sta
cy, Mimi, wandered into St Paul yes
terday, and with a hackman as an es-
eort visited a number of places where
he explained his wants, but oddly the
proprietor of each store that. he called
at had to inform him, Sorry, but we
are just out. - Though Carlson offered
Inducements, varied and many, including
farm of forty acres and the proceeds
of big crop of homegrown potatoes, the
blushing- damsels of that locality refused
to take him for better or for worse
Some wag directed him, to the CITY hall,
and during his stay in the big building
a number of the fair stenographers who
hold forth there We're the objects of his
scrutiny and a pathetic appeal to go to
Stacy, They were obdurate to his ad-
Vances, however, and he was compelled
to leave, but not without kindly advice
from the officials who directed him to a
department store.
Carlson says he is thirty years of age,
a widower, has one child. now with
friends, and is willing to give the right
woman a good home. He says he owns
a farm of forty acres at Stacy, and last
week shipped two car loads of potatoes
to Minneapolis, the proceeds from which
he was yesterday rafting in his pock-
cts. 1880. ; ...r.
The last heard of him he had bought
return ticket to Stacy, and had inform
ed his friends that he would try and se-
cure a helpnate, at that town. -.
