THIRD WARDERS AT LAST
ELECT

names of Alderman Joseph Froehlich,
Harrish Cash and +. ]. McTague We're
mentioned. The latter made no effort
whatever, to win out, but it necessl-
tated several ballots to decide who was
who, and each time it was either a tie
between Melville and McTague or one
or the other was in the lead, the vote
shifting from "a 3 to 8 tally to a 4 to :
vote at various times.
ON several ballots Alderman Froeh-
fish and Mr.. Cash received n vote
each, but Melville finally won out.
There was some talk about the ward
today about the result being contested.
At the meeting it was seen that there
was some bitterness between Stephen
Zeleny, of the third district, and Morris
Shapiro, of the fifth district. The latter
accused his colleague of using Republic
can pastors at the last election, but
according to Zeleny was not able to
prove it,
The majority of the committee stated
that they would not attend the Demo-
cratic dinner at the New Auditorium
tonight.
Instead of charging us So in order to
allow some one to make SOM money,
they ought to make it a dollar dinner
or a testimonial affair" was the way
one of the leaders put it.

county had named their executive mem
bers some time ago, ii was not until
last night that the Third Ward repre-
sentatives got together and selected
their two executive men.

chairman of the committee for Monday
night. At that time six responded.

Committee to Demand that Railway
Prisoners Do Not Shut Out Workers.

II was decided by the Building Trades
Council last night TO have a committee
wait on the commissioners of the Railway
Reformatory in an effort to have the pris-
oners stopped from doing work at the in
s%titution which should be done by me-
chanics who are thereby prevented from
earning a livelihood.
As was stated in yesterdays EVENING
STAR, the labor men learned that pris-
oners at the roformatory were helping the
steam filters, iron workers and metal cell
ing workers to do work in the new wing
OF the building, and they claim 1t is unjust
to mechanics. especially at this time, who
are now out Of work,
The matter took up considerable time at
the meeting of the Council last night, Tor
It was reported positively that inmates OF
the institution who were serving as helpers
were receiving twenty-five cents an hour,
ter cents less than is paid men who earn
their living at the business.
Some of tine delegates wanted to know
what became OF the money. and they were
Informed that while the prisoners received
part Of it, the State got the balance.
''That is a pretty rotten state of affairs
said one of the delegates, Ito have those
prisoners do the work that we should
have. AS l understand It. some of the
helpers are men who have been paroled.
yet they can get work while we have to
walk the streets. While these violaters of
the law are being fed and housed by the
State, we who obey the law 81 hungry

ED. Standard:
There are moments when | want to
know what is beyond the darkness of
death. We know but little of the
present and absolutely nothing of the
future. The prattling babe knows as
much of what is to come after death
as the sages of all the world. We are
not consulted when we came; we are
not consulted when we go. All roads
lead to the grave, and each day we
approach it little nearer, but by a
wise provision of Providence the fu-
ture is a bewildering mystery. Evil
IDENTIFY it is for the best that we do
not know. Had we known what was
to come, most of us would be in the
grave or lunatic asylum.
We all know that the best life here
on Earth, is the best preparation for
whatever may come hereafter.
want to live again. hope to live
again! This is q normal desire. and
just as natural AS the desire to live to-
morrow. The idea OF extinction is
not pleasant to me. The dead are
certainly immortal in the affections
of kindred and friends, and in the
moral forces they perpetuate in the
world, taking hold of the hearts of
the living with somewhat of a divine
grasp, as if to make sure that the
imperishable is there. The eternal
star of Hope ever lends enchantment
to life. MIZPAH.

DIRECTOIRE Gown UNDER BAN

DlhECTOlhE UOWN INDEX DAN
Queen Alexandria has placed a ban
on the directoire, or sheath gown, in
England, and it will probably be
confined hereafter to stage use and
advertising purposes for less hon
orable calling. She has caused it to
be proclaimed that no woman wear
ing pronounced directoire will be
received at court functions. At a
ball the ladies wearing these gowns
were numerically snubbed by the
upper-crust under direction of her
majesty, and were almost denied
places at the supper-table, and so
displeased was the queen that she
expressed her Indignation openly and
left the ball before supper was end
ed. Whether the new costume will
survive this radical treatment or not,
remains to be seen, for Fashion S
whim is one of those DEGREES that fol-
lows the rule
''If women will, they will,
You can depend ont;
II women won't, they won't
And that S the end out"
