Many of the Episcopal clergymen of
Bishop Potter's diocese belong to an
organization called the Churchmen' 8
Club. The members meet once a month
in the afternoon, in one of the Broad
way hotels, and have a simple dinner
which is served at round tables in one
of the big rooms, the groups forming
themselves at the tables as the members
list. With coffee and cigars, all settle
themselves to discuss the current top
les of Diocesan business, questions of
theological import or religious pro-
gress. In this comfortable and inform
al fashion many grave topics of wide
spread interest have been touched up
on and the solution of weighty prob
lens arrived at.

FARMERS MULCTED
Agent for Seed Company Sells Many
Bushels OF Seed Potatoes but
None are Delivered.
FARMERS GIVE UP THEIR MONEY

News has been brought into the
city that the farmers of thescounty
have been 1nu1cted by smooth seed
potato agent. His name was Clark
and he came from Chicago. Patent
leather shoes and pretty good clothes
were his weaponsland he managed to
secure several hundreds of dollars
belonging to farmers in the county.
Clark struck sthe county the first of
March and went from house to house
canvassing seed potatoes. He Had
some samples which were of the best,
and he claimed that the company
which he represented was reliable.
He did not ask for payment in ad-
vance for the goods, butastated that if
the payments were made in advance
the company would ship with the
orders valuable premiums. The far
mers couldn't get away from the plan
of getting something for nothing and
to this end many of them gave up
their good money to the shrewd
agent.
The potatoes were to7have arrived
by the middle of March, but not a
thing has been heard fromlany of the
orders given by the.farmers. A rough
estimate of the amount secured by the
man in his four days work in the
county places it at $500, and it is sup
posed that the plan was worked in ali
| the counties surrounding.
| It does seem that the farmers of the
county have been victimized often
enough in the 1astIten or twelve years
for them to get wise to the fact that il
is impossible for thensto get some
thing for nothing. Local dealers
handle everything needed for the
farmers and they will do well to buy
supplies from companies at home.

THERE is one good thing about the
result of the election and that is that
the democrats made a clean sweep
while they were about it. They have
all the city offices and majority of
the council. There is no divided re
sponsibi1ity. The administration has
everything its own way and must
stand or fall by the record made in the
next two years. And for the sake OF
the city it is to be hoped that Mayor
German and his associates will repay
the voters who reposed such conf.
dence in them by giving the city good
administration.

THE open season on ducks COM
mences April 10 and lasts Is days. A
license is necessary to shoot at this
season just the same as in the fall.
Most sportsmen believe that the 1egis-
1ature made mistake in permitting
an open season in the spring as the
birds are in poor condition and unfit
for food at this tinegof the year and
most of the killing is done simply to
show the hunters skill with his
weapon.

JUsr because Mayor German was
smooth enough to work the Barber
Commission is no sign that it would
be safe for any of the other BARRIERS in
town to play the same system. The
commission is said to be very fierce
and war1ike-when it has the right
kind of man to go after.

CITY GIVES THE LIBRARY s1O,536
Official Canvass of City Election Returns
Shows That German Has Plurality
S7.-Other Pluralities,

by his reappointment the commission
will be made up of the same men that
composed it when it was first organ
lied under theIcity ordinance.
The appointment of Mr.. Buckmas-
ter will probably be one of the last
acts of Mr.. Pfennig and it is an ap-
pointment which will be favored by
the entire city. Mr.. Buckmaster has
been greatly interested in the work Of
the Police and Fire Commission and
since the organization of the body he
has served in the capacity of secre-
tary. Underl his direction ali the
rules for thesgovernment of the police
and firemen were compiled and the
work of making these rules was large
~ on the shoulders of Mt. Buckmas-
ter. He will probably be reelected
secretary of the Board.
In appointing Republican to the
Office Mayor Pfennig has carried out
the plan to keep the Board non
partisan one and at the present time
it has two Democrats and two Repub-
1icans. The makeup of the Board is:
President, George H. Curtis; secre-
tary, A. E. Buckmaster. Other mem
bers, Christian Schend and John
Priddis.
Outside of the canvass of the vote
of the city election and the appoint
ment of a Fire and Police Commits
sioner there was little of interest at
the meeting of the Council. A reso-
luton was passed ordering the city
clerk to draw an order on the city
treasury for the amount appropriated
by the city for the support of the Gil
bert M. Simmons library. The
amount appropriated this year is &c.,
$50 and it will be paid over to the di-
rectors of the library at once. It is
probable that at least five thousand
dollars of the amount will be paid
back into the city treasury as it is
thought that the expenses of the IL
brary for the coming year will not be
in excess of 1886. The amount to be
paid for the support of the library was
fixed by the terms of the contract be-
tween Mr.. Simmons and the City
Council. The salaries of the election
officials were allowed and the clerk
will have the orders ready within
few days.
The canvass of the vote occupied the
remainder of the time of the meeting.
The returns we're in such bad shape
that it was exceedingly difficult for
the aldermen to tell just what the
p1ura1ities were. The tables when
completed showed the following

dates.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL PLAN
THE PROJECT GETS FRESH I'M
PETUS AT THE FORMAL OPEN
ING OF THE BRYANT BUILDING.

If the popular desire for a much
needed additional high school can be
crystalized, provision for the build
ing will be made by the next board of
tax levy. The project was brought
up last night at the formal opening
of the Bryant school, Thirty-seventh
street and Clinton avenue, and a few
more such meetings will make the
building a reality. Primarily, the
hundreds of residents Of the Bryant
building came to the meeting because
it marked the opening Of the build
ing, which has been in use only a
few months. In the spacious lower
hall the guests were received by Mrs.
A. C. Warrington, the principal, and
cation. There were several frappe
tables and the building was lighted
turnout Every room was in gala rig,
with handsome displays Of the pupils
work, and in many instances the
teacher in attendance to point out
details and assist in the general en-
tertainment.
Seats were placed in the upper hall
and the South high school orchestra
played while the audience was finding
seats. H. Z. Soden called the meet
ing to order and introduced in sue
cession, School Directors N. F. Haw-
ley, c. j. Bintliff and w. K. Hicks,
Mrs. Warrington, r.. H. Wagner, Rev.
G.. l.. Morrill, and Superintendent, c.
M. Jordan. The talks were largely
congratulatory on the occupation Of
the building. Mrs. Warrington made
plea for liberal assistance from par
ents in providing pictures and other
wall decorations for the new build
ing. Principal speakers on the new
high school were w. K. Hicks, F. H
| Wagner of the Douglas district and
superintendent Jordan. It was shown
that the Central building was already
| overcrowded and that the introduc-
| ton Of the new commercial course
next fall would cause it to overflow
No special location was suggested for
| the proposed school, tho it was agreed
! that it should be somewhere south OF
Central. Special emphasis was laid
on the fact that the people must act
| in this matter for themselves and put
| the matter before the board of taa
4 levy in such a way as to bring results
No formal action was taken last night
/ tho a concerted movement in the dis
trict interested will soon be put un-
der way.
Musical numbers were given b,
Russell Chapman, whose clear, boyisf
soprano won him an encore, and by
/ Miss Gertrude Ames. who sang witt
1 artistic finish and was likewise re
called.
