THIRD TICKET IN SIGHT.
Candidates for Mayor, Treasurer
and Controller to Be Named in
Behalf of Municipal Water.

The third ticket that will figure in the
municipal spring campaign is in sight
and Independent nomination papers arc
expected to be fled in their behalf some
day this week. The limit for filing
nominations for the regular parties,
which, Of course, places the Republ
can and Democratic organizations first,
expires today: but independent candi-
dates have seven days longer in which
to file their papers.
The third ticket, as has been expect
ed, will stand on a platform that de-
clares for municipal water: that is, the
candidates will be pronounced repre-
sentatives of that project and their ap
peal to the people will be based mostly
on this
There will be nominees for only three
offices. These are the principal offices
to be voted for in the spring election
namely, mayor treasurer and control
Ter. There was some talk of a COM
plete ticket, but after discussion it
was not deemed prudent to go so deep
ly into the project. There was Il fear,
that grew as the suggestion went
round, that it would be loading the
ticket to have on it representatives for
every office from mayor to ward con-
stable; in short, the necessity for such
n ticket never impressed itself on those
foremost in the third ticket movement
so it was dismissed with the resolution
to have only three candidates. mayor
treasurer and controller.
The personnel OF the third ticket is
vet in doubt but 4 decision as to the
three nominees will surely be reached
within Il few days. 1t is certain that
Il. a. Roberts for mayor will head the
list. This has been decided upon, the
decision being reached as soon as the
third ticket project was taken up for
discussion. The nominees for treasurer
and controller are in doubt. Ex-Coun-
Gilman r. NJ. Nealon is being urged
strenuously urged, it might be said, TO
be the candidate for treasurer, but as
vet he has not given a positive answer.
AS to the controllership, it is talked Of
that the name of George w. Evans, the
Republican nominee, will also be on
this ticket AS in the case of the treas
urer, this is also in doubt.
In connection with this ticket. ii is
given out that the candidates, whoever
they might be, are not the representa-
tives of the Municipal Owenship league,
which was organized on Friday night
rhis organization, it is asserted, has no
connection with these candidates., and
that it stands for whatever appears
best for the citY's interests,
1t seems certain that there will be
several Independent candidates for ward
offices. particularly from the Fourth
ward, where there was such u hot con-
test for select council VIII f. Lotus,
who was defeated at the primaries, will
likely be one of the Independent candi-
dates. In the event of these independ-

LAST DAYS OF FAIR.
Saturday Night Was the Biggest Of
the Week.


Saturday night was the banner
night of the week at the Columbia
Hose company fair. The crowd in at
tendance was the largest of the week
and q generous crowd It proved to be,
too. When the opening number on the
programme was called the hall was
comfortably filed, and before the pro-
gramme had been finished, the spac-
ious room was crowded to the doors,
with crowds waiting for admission.
The programme as given In Saturday $
Tribune was carried out in full. Every
number was received with enthusiasm
and each was encOred. The lovers of
the terpslchorean art then took pos
session of the floor and enjoyed i'm
mensely the half hour of round dane
Ing which has been Il great feature of
the fair. The music furnished by the
Mozart orchestra was never better.
Each musician became umbued with
the spirit of enthusiasm that pre-
vailed all evening in the hall and, in
fact, all week. The plum tree came in
for Its usual attention and much mer-
riment was caused by the distribution
of the many varied presents. Tonight
the hall will be darkened, the Column
bia company desiring to attend the
benefit social for Fireman Charles
Hull, which will be held in Watts
hall.
Tomorrow night the fair will be re-
opened and continued for three nights.
There will be but one door prize for the
three evenings-a handsome diamond
ring. The programmes for each even-
ing will be up to the standard set by
the Columbias. The prize of $25 in gold
will be CHANGED off on the last night
of the fair.

INFLUENCE OF MUSIC.
Results of Experiments Made Upon
Animals in Europe.

The pleasing legend of Orpheus and
the wild beasts has lately been put to
the proof in Europe in series of tests
TO determine whether music hath
charms to soothe the savage breast.
Not long since concert was given at
the poultry show at Posen The fowls
listened intently and the only one which
did not seem pleased was an old turkey
cock, which gave every evidence of
noisy disapproval. Herr Baler, the vio-
linist, then made a series of expert
ments in the German Geological Gar
dens with interesting results. A puma
was found to be peculiarly susceptible.
As soon as the playing began he
stretched himself and listened intently,
giving every evidence of sensuous
pleasure. This continued as long as
the music was soft and low, but when
the movement and tempo changed and
the playing became loud and rapid he
sprang to his feet, lashed his tall, and
gave every evidence of high nervous
excitement, as II he We're Il Frenchman
listening TO the "Marseilaise.
Leopards showed complete indiffer-
ence. The lions We're nervous and ap-
prehensive. but when the player passed
on they lay down and went to sleep.
The lion cubs seemed to show dis
position to dance when the music was
animated, but the older members of the
family were evidently better pleased
With allegro measures, Hyenas were
badly frightened. The monkeys showed
much curiosity, but only one of them
displayed evidence of great pleasure.
Prairie wolves at first manifested great
curiosity, but. having satisfied them
selves as to where the sounds came
from, they arranged themselves i'm
semi-circle and listened attentiyely.
When the music stopped they paved
the player and seemed to solicit favor
of AN encore, The tests are to be con-
tinued, With view to determining IL
musical perception is trait in all AMI
mails If they set the kind of music
which suits them, or only a nervous
manifestation in recognition OF the un-
usual and ineOmprehensible.

NEW NORTHWEST BREAKER.
Plans Will Be Decided on by Com
pany's officials Tomorrow.

Plans for the new breaker to replace
the Northwest breaker, which was re-
Gently laid in ruins by the fire tiend,
have been prepared by architects and
tomorrow they will be examined by the
company officials.
The plans comprehend structure
that will be mammoth in size. much
larger than the old one. The most i'm
proved machinery will be installed.
The officials of the Temple Iron and
Coal company have not as yet given
out where the new breaker will be
erected but it is probable that the loca-
tion will be much nearer the mines than
the old one. BY placing it nearer the
mines mile of track will be done away
with and better facilities offered for
preparing the coal for the market.
Since the burning down of the breaker
number of foreigners, who were en-
ployed there. have left for other parts.
If the plans are accepted tomorrow,
work on the new breaker will be start
ed at once,
