WILL NOT BE IN
 RAGE FOR MAYOR
CAPT. FRANK p. O'BRlEN MAKES DEFINITE ANNOUNCEMENT TO THAT EFFECT-WILL BE A CAM DIDATE FOR SHERIFF.

'I have decided not to enter the race for mayor said Capt. Frank P. O'Brien last night, "but I will be a candidate for sheriff of Jefferson county at the next democratic primary election"
 This announcement came as greae surprise to the many friends of Captain O'Brien and 1t throws new light on the race for sheriff, which Is just now waxing very warm. It is understood that there will be at least eight candi- dates. The friends of Captain O'Brien believe that with so many in the contest his chances for success are bright.
 It was also announced last night that George G. Phillips, the well known livery man, will be candidate for sheriff. He is a member of the police commission and has strong following in Jefferson county.
 It was rumored several days ago that Walter Moore would be a candidate and while definite confirmation has not been obtained it is almost certain that he will enter the contest. He also is a man of great strength and his er:ry will add considerable zest to the campaign.
 The other candidates and probabilities are Harry Jones, alderman from the Eighth ward; Albert Stradford, chief deputy to Sheriff Burgin; James A. Dow ney, connected with w. s. Brown in the merchandise business, and Col. E. l.. Higdon, secretary of the Travellers Pro- tective association of the state.

STOCK CO, COMES
 TO VULCAN'S AID It is to Have a Capital
 of $5000 SHARES OFFERED AT $50 Committee Met and Decided That Stock Company Was Feasible Way
 to Raise Needed Money.
 To Sell Statuettes.

A stock company was organized at the
 meeting of the Vulcan committee Of the
 Commercial club yesterday morning to
 have charge of raising the remainder of
 the money needed to complete the ex-
 hibit at St. Louis. The capital stock of
 the company Is s5OOO and the shares are to be $50 each.
 At the meeting yesterday thirteen Of the 100 shares were subscribed at once,
 and it is expected that the remaining eighty-seven will be taken by Tuesday.
 The company will probably be able to
 pay back every cent subscribed, and any
 surplus that may be obtained from the
 sale of the statuettes of Vulcan will go
 to the Commercial club. Any loss will be pocketed by the subscribers. This committee will have charge of the sale of the statuettes of Vulcan, sever al thousand of which have been ordered.
 The first installment will arrive here this week.
 Secretary Gibson has been appointed to receive the subscriptions and all that are obtained will pass through his hands.
 The committee still needs s5000, as the statue will cost about s21, 900 instead Of s1soOO as was expected. This Is due to the additional cost in casting the statue and also in the extensive mineral exhibit which has been arranged.
 The small statutettes of Vulcan will be placed on sale in every retail store in the city, and 1t is thought that several
 hundred of them will De sold in a short time. They will also be on sale in St.
 Louis at the exposition, and it is believ- ed that hundreds of them will be dis posed of there.
 The following is a list of the subscrib- CTS to the stock company: F. M. Jack son, two shares; Rufus N. Rhodes, two
 shares; George Griffin, two shares; Ross c. Smith. one share; M. V. Joseph, one
 share F. W. Dixon, one. share; T. H. Johnson, one share; J. J. Smith, one share Lewis Minor. one share; J. B. Gib- son, one share.
