 COLONEL WILSON IN TOWN Colonel J. F. Wilson arrived in the city yesterday morning and will spend the rest of the winter here. He was asked yesterday if he would go to Wash ington before the adjournment of the session of congress.

 FIRE DEPARTMENT ELECTION The annual election Of officers of the Phoenix fire department will be held next Monday night and as the time ap- breaches the usual interest in that event is being aroused. Some time ago the engine company held meeting and endorsed for the office of chief, Tom Linville of Victor Hose company. Last night Victor Hose company held a meeting and added its endorsement of Mr. Linville's boom. It is rumored that the present chief. Mir. Stokoe will not hide out if a reelection is thrust \. A. Warner would be willing to serve the department if it insisted. so there is no danger of the position rcmaining vacant for want of a man to wear the honor.
 THE COURT HOUSE JANITOR.- Yesterday was a futile day in the office of the board Of supervisors So far as making the biennial appointment of a janitor for the court house was con- cerred. The board having spent some hours in routine matters took up the janitor question and struggled with it until the close Of the session. This is not a matter that will affect the tax payers of the county to an alarming extent but it is a matter of considera- ble political importance. as the result will show how much, if any. influence the Young Mems Democratic club has with the board. The board it is said has it in mind to re-appoint Seth By CTS with whose work no fault has been found. At the same time there is a dis position 10 appoint an assistant for him and that proposed assistant is Theodore Olea a member and worker in the Young Mems Democratic club. The club. however. has endorsed an othet hlehloer so that the appointment of Olea if it should be made would not be much Of a concession to that or ganizatiOn. It is probable that the subject will be disposed of today. The office of janitor is worth $10O a month but there is at times more work than one man can do and the janitor must hire his help himself
