election was held at the commits
sioners' room at the courthouse. The
board met first for an hour and half
in executive session, where the fight
really took place, and when the formal
ballot was taken in open session MIR.
Hanke was chosen by a unanimous
vote. Five ballots were necessary in
the executive session. The fight was
between Hanke and Charles F. Nick
els now chief deputy in the treasurer's
Office. The latter had good backing,
but lacked the political influence. The
successful candidate was materially
strengthened, also, by the fact that
he ran second to Colonel johnson at
the Republican primaries a year ago
last fall.
The Excelsior line to Minnetonka
which the Twin City Rapid Transit
company completed at the close of the
summer season has not been hibernat-
ing during the winter months. On the
contrary, large gangs of men have
been constantly at work Strengthening
out curves, reducing grades and doing
the necessary grading for double
tracking the road grading is about one
half completed, and long before spring
will be finished and ready for the rails.
Owing to the grading operations, the
work of improving the line in the mat
ter of cutting out curves has been
greatly simplified, and when it opens
for the regular summer business it will
be scarcely recognizable. One great
improvement will be the construction
Of another bridge, the exact duplicate
of the present structure, over the rail-
road tracks at Hopkins. The contrac-
tors will have this work completed by
April 1. Another bridge, which will
be ready weeks before the summer sea-
son, will be thrown across the Mime
apolis & st. Louis tracks at Excelsior
In it's approach to the tracks this
bridge will pass over Division and
Second streets.

that was necessary to him. Indig-

See here! Why don't you move a
little so that this tired woman may
have q seat?"
For moment the German looked
dazcd. Then broad smile spread
over his countenance as he answered:
Say, dots joke on you, all right!
Dots my wife!"

If It's worth while going over this

Ye Oldest Inhabitant. ooh, yes,

self-sacrifice and personal discom-

plish something you have set out to
do?" inquired the man who gives

A Surgical Feat.

Louisville, Special.-Employing the
skin of healthy brown sheep, the head
of Miss Edna Seifert, whose scalp was
torn off in an accident at the Nelson
Bethel Clothing Company, August z,
will be covered by the grating process.
DR.. A. R. Bizot, who has been attend
ing her at SITS. Mary and Elizabeth
Hospital. stated that work Of placing
the skin on Miss Seiferts head Will
commence this morning. The opera
ton will require several months, as on
" little islands" of the skin are DOT
ted over the surface close enough 10
ultimately grow together. In a tew
weeks the success OF this somewhat
UNIQUE and original operation can pe
determined. If it is not successful
then the skin Of human will be USED.
Miss Seifert is twenty-one years DID,
and boards at 24O0 Griffiths avenue.
She was an operator at the factory
of the Nelson-Bethel Clothing Com
pany. While she was adjusting a re-
fractory belt, her hair caught IN the
shafting. She was dragged across the
machine. and her entire scalp ana part
of her cheek were torn completely on.
AT first her life was despaired OF, but
her injury responded promptly 70
treatment and her recovery is now con-
fdently expected.
Sunday a piece of skin taken from
Miss Seifert's heel was grated to her
forehead. but to cover her entire mead
with a substitute for a scalp was a
problem which the attending surgeon
is now endeavoring to solve by using
sheen skin. The animal was purchased
from, a Jefferson-county farmer, and
is in fine condition. The brown sneep
was selected because that was the color
of the wig she will hereafter be forced
to wear.

New Orleans, Special.-Official re-
port TO p. m.:
New cases, 45. Total cases to date,
1885.
Deaths, Total deaths, 1876.
New foci, II. Total foci, 306.
Remaining under treatment, 3S1.
No better evidence of the fact that
the visitation of mosquito fever is not
only being controlled here, but that
there is a chance for its eradication,
can be found, than in the daily reports
Of cases and deaths. For several days
the numuer of cases has shown de-
cline, while the number of deaths have
been remarkably lower, considering
the number of cases reported week
ago. The death list indicates that prac-
tically every case that develops is now
being reported and that means that
the modern method Of treatment to
prevent spread is being applied. When
that condition is assured, the end of
visitation is in sight, and It looks as II
that condition is approaching.
With the visitation of 1878 compar-
ed to the present one, it is shown that
there is DO reason for alarm in the
present instances. They prove the fact
that the disease is being controlled.
They also indicate that if it had not
been checked and controlled at the
time that it was that the visitation
this year would have been as serious
as that Of 1880. While the Marine
Hospital surgeons are making no com.
ments, they are much more hopetui
than they were two weeks ago, when
they took hold of the situation.
OF the four deaths, one was at the
Charity Hospital, one in the Emergen'
cy Hospital, and the other two down
town.
