GET MODERN VEHICLE.
Band Wagon" Used by Assistant As
SCISSORS Given a Rest.

The assistant assessors of the District are
to have a new vehicle to transport them
about the city while they are officially en-
ployed.
For many years-in. fact so long ago that
the oldest employees of the District failed to
recollect to the contrary-the board Of real
estate assessors has had at Its disposal a
vehicle that, because Of Its antiquity and
ungainly appearance, was called the band
wagon" This vehicle was looked upon as
a wonder in it's palmy days and has no
doubt been seen by every resident Of the
District some time or other. 1t is cross
between a cab and cart IL mas Tour
wheels The assessors enter 1t from the
rear and 1t has seats on both sides. like
street car. Its chief adornment is the
dilapidated and faded awnings that hang
from the windows on each side, and. most
interesting of all, 1t is drawn by two big.
lanky aw-boned, ex-fire horses
The gentlemen who have graced the
board Of real estate assessors have made
repeated and earnest efforts to secure an
appropriation with which to buy a new
vehicle, but their efforts were fruitless.
Whenever requests were made an examina-
ton of the old wagon would be made and
report submitted to the effect that she's
lust as sound as the day she made"
and the matter would be passed up.
1t is said by members of the board Of as
sistant assessors that the reason their re-
quests were unsuccessful was due to the
fact that those who had the say in the mat
ter had never ridden in the band wagon"
But E. w. w. Griffin, the present assessor,
rode in this famous wagon for a number Of
years as a member of the board. and one
of his first official prom seS after being
made assessor was to secure a new wagon
for the board of real estate assessors, and
he has been true to his promise.
Matthew Trimble. chairman Of the board
was informed today that a. requisition has
been made for vehicle. and that If
will be handsome and modern one. Just
what the fate of the old band wagon" will
be when Its successor materializes is not
known, but one official of the assessors Of
flee has been heartless enough to suggest
| that it be turned over to the street cleaning
department.

NO FIGHT AGAINST PARSONS.
New York County Committee Meeting
Placid.

NEW YORK. October 4.-Herbert Parsons
was chosen for the third time as the leader
of the republican organization Of this coun-
ty when the new county committee met last
night to organize. There was no opposition
and the meeting was as placid as a pink
tea, save for Just little suffering from
Abe Gruber over the appointing Of a COM
mittee on contests. The plan Of the old
Odell leaders to put up William NJ. X. OIL
colt as an opposition candidate had beN
abandoned. Lemuel Ely Quigg. who has
usually led such fights was not there.
The chance Mr.. Gruber got to talk came
when President Parsons announced that
notices of contest had been received from

Harrison in his effort to have the court de-
termne the validity Of the deeds to most
