the sin porteri of O 1? Schtlefei, the
piesent Incumbent, and W. J Welsh, the

upon one 01 the otliet. A few days ago
Mi Welsh and his It lends made ovei
lures to caucus the ill quite but the
piopifltlon was not received with fav
or. Mi. Schrlofci and Mi. Welsh each
have tour votes.
Theie Is no piospect of uniting on 1

his bi'slness ability, knowledge of pai-
liampntaiy iu.es and geneial lltness foi
the position, there Is no question talsed
by the Republican membei s.
The question has been rilsed that the
Mies of John Gibbons, Herman NoU
and Rensou M Davis, Demoeiats, ai-
not positively assuied to the choice of
theli paity This Is lefuted by the

The last meelli.u' of tho IHcH year
takes placo Monday evening. The elec

Theie was no man in the city yestei
day who was bcttn satisfied with him
self than James Gilei, tho ehaitman
ol common council, who was returned
fiom the Third waul on Tuesday. It
was the fight of Ml Gi lei's lite and the
fact that he won it was most giatlfylng
to him Tli" contest excited inteiest In
all puts of the city and mnny men
fiom othei wnids wete Iinpoited Into
tho Third by one 01 the othei of tho
tival factions to "swing" a vote or
"button it up tight." When It became
appatent that Mi. Oiler had won a
numbci of that gentleman's friends se
emed btooms and marching to Mi. Gil
d's home loiced him to join them.
Then they paraded the principal stieets
of the North Dud shouting for their
favorite. It was the noisiest demon
stiatlon seen in that pait of the city in
some time.
The defeat of George "Wlith In the
Nineteenth waid Is legtettcd. Ho Is a
bioad guaged young man who vviu lap
iclly developing Into a valuable council
man as he became acquainted w 1th the
science ot city government It Is a loss
to the people of the Nineteenth to have
him succeeded at this time by a young
man who will have to spend some time
in acquiring the expeiience Mi. Wlith
now possesses.
T B Jackson, the new member of the
common count 11 from the Thirteenth,
will be one of the valuable and pi emin
ent membeis of the new council.
Alderman P. De Lacy received many
congratulations yesteiday on his le
election to the olllco of aldewnan In
the Seventh waid. He Is a valuable
oiliclal.

Among the hundreds of special val

bartjaiiib that outclass othei s, both in
their desirability and the sweeping
character ofthc reduction.
Particularly is this true of our open
stock patterns of decorated dinner
ware, which have been made up in
sets. It has been a matter of doubt
whether they should be included in
the sale or not, but once decided upon
as belonging to the "odd ware" class,
their cost or value had no pait in de
ciding the price. 'Twjs what would
