Becls Some Minor Notes.
Politics will once more occupy public
attention on this side for a short space
of time today. Ward caucuses uf the
Republican party will be conducted In
the Fifth and Fifteenth ward for the
purpose of selecting nominees for the
several ward olllces. Although the cau
cuses will be conducted on much the
same lines as heretofore, they occupy
the unique position of Itiuuguaratlug
the Ciawford county system, under
which the Republican party will con
duct Its city and county primaries dur
ing the future.
The struggle In the Fifth ward cen
ters In the light for the common coun
cil and the same Is tine In the Fif
teenth ward. In the latter the fray
has assumed a llerce nspect, there
being Ave aspirants in the Held for this
honor.
Select Councilman R. 11. Williams,
present Incumbent from the Fifth ward
In that branch, will be opposed for re
election by his party by Thomas Bees.
of .South Lincoln nvenue. It is said
that Mr. Rees Is making a strong can
vass. Tlie present commoner from this
word. John II. Walker, of Division
street, will be opposed for the renoni
Inatlon by John T. James, of "111 Four
teenth street. Mr. Walker has an hon
orable and able record for his (list
term as an advantage which It will
be hard to overcome. Mr. James, how
ever. Is making a noble fight and hon
ors so fur are somewhat In doubt, so
his friends say. For the uncertain
emoluments of the ofllce of constable
in this ward only one candidate lias
announced himself. Chester Cannier, of
Washburn street, a well known rail
roader Is the man. Timothy Jones Is
the present constable.
For ward assessor there ale two can
didates, viz: John J. James of Acud
einp street, and David Owens, of South
Lincoln avenue. The latter Is not the
principal of public school Xo. 3:'. but
a much older mun. lioth ejiidldates
are well known and are striving with
might and main for the nomination.
For register of voters for which there
is one for each of the four districts,
m far only one candidate has announc
ed himself. IJrililth Jones, of South
Itebecea avenue, is out for this ofllce
in the Third district. Of course, the
other districts will have their candi
dates, and an election board will also
be voted for at each district.
In the Fifteenth ward so far no In
terest seems to have been taken In the
select couucilshlp, at present repre
sented by Horatio Fellows. Anent the
common branch there Is no luck of
interest. The present incumbent. Jo
seph Oliver, who has so creditably filled
the office for two terms is not a candi
date for lenomlnntlon and election.
However, there are four tried and
true men out for It-. They are IMeh-

To permit their expert ex
ponent of Correct Corset Fitting to remain with us for one week
longer. Consequently the
Exposition and Demonstrations
Which have proved such an attractive feature dining the week
now closing, will be continued for six days longer than origin
ally intended.
Women of Fashion Know
That correct styles in dress cannot be worn advantageously with
out a corset, which will conform exactly to the effect aimed at.
"Redfern" Corsets accomplish this to perfection. Thev join
hands with Dame Fashion every change that is brought about,
yet never lose sight of the grand, underlying principles which
have made the matchless "Redfern" Corsets famous throughout
the wide, wide world, and have won for them not only the en
dorsement of every leading modiste and designer of women's at
tire, but also unequivocal recommendations from the more emi
nent members of the medical profession in nearly every country
on the globe.
Further Talk Here Is Needless
The authority who is now with us will cheerfully Impart the se
crets that render a correct selection in corsets an absolute certain
ty under all circumstances. This is a branch of education which
well formed women can hardly afford to neglect, and as it goes
o all inquirers without money and without price, it is not sur
prising that the opportunity is being largely taken advantage of.

Hampton street, and Duvld Edwards,

being well known and popular, have
raused the lines to be drawn very
closely.
So Tar us the other ward oincers to
be elected are conrerned, no Interest
seems to havo been taken In them.

MR. O'BOYLE GIVES NOTICE.
Threatened the Arrest of Persons
Who Fail to Clean Sidewalks.
It was brought to the notice of
Street Commissioner O'Bnyle yester
day that n'vtrn serious nci iflonts had
been caused by U y sidewalks. Ho
promptly R.ivf notice that he would
procure the aid of the police to com
pel tho cleaning of the wnlks and gut
ters by property occupunts, especially
In the central city. Nothing 'waa
done about It yesterday but Mr.
O'Boyle announced that uneleaned
walks would receive his attention to
day. Former Street Commls-sloners Klrst
and Kinsley enforced an ordinance,
which prescribes that snow ind tea
shall be promptly removed from the '
walks and that gutters shall bo kept
open under penalty of a fine that Is
nominal for a first offence but -which
is rather expensive for a second. Each
of the former commissioners caused
aocial arrests during their terms and
Commissioner O'Boyle says ho will do
likewise.
Ho proposes to take action early, be
lieving that an education of the pub
lic mv will prevent a lot of cuss words
later by pedestrians who would havo
to wade through much slush or skate
on tholr enrs in order to get about the
business district.
