Minutes from broadway" and had re-

accepted the task OF drilling that
chorus in the songs and dances of
George Cohan's galloping comedy. OF
course, he had the assistance of Ed

Vail had to do was to stand in the
orchestra pit and sing the solos and
keep the music running straight, and
tell Miss Atkisson that she might sing
little louder, and beat time with
a lead pencil. and prompt the cho-
rus, and keep everybody in a good
humor. But Frank Ellis--he was the

barred by legal statute from succeed
ing himself, would be unable to take
any part in the fight.

that Marcellus Anderson will be re-

sentative, despite the fact that the
three Seventh Ward representatives
in Council are opposed to him.
Robert c. Clark, of the Eighth
ward, will be re- elected to the Com
mission, unless something unforeseen
develops. and DIR, A. II. Baskin, for
mer Councilman, win be chosen as the
First Ward representative, succeed
ing Chairman Mason, without oppo-
sition.

fight will be made to elect Mr.. An

that Vice Chairman w. P. Fain will

Commissioner, also is a candidate for
the craftsmanship, and he has some
support.
