When will the School Board inform the public how much that school-house cost, why they paid the contractor before all honest claims were paid, how many honest claimants are to be defrauded and why, and how much has been paid above the contract price, and why said board acted as a close corporation in the erection of that building? Why was the advisory building committee ignored in every way by the school board? ready to support good men of other parties, therefore Resolved, that we encourage the organization of a Good Citizens movement in which nominations may be made, free from party interest.

That we may carry out the purpose and spirit of these resolutions to support good men, but not bad policies Resolved, that we call a nominating convention of our party, if possible, after other parties have made nominations, that we may select and ratify such nominations as they may have made, which we can approve and thus declare for the greatest need of our city and the only right policy in regard to the burdens and evils of the liquor traffic, and at the same time unite with others in the election of good men for municipal officers. All were determined to carry out the policy set forth in the Wm. Polifka, Secn SUICIDE." A' Morning Passenger Runs Down a Peddler's Wagon Two Persons Injured Horse Killed-Need of Gates at Durkee Street Crossing. This morning as the" o'clock Northwestern train, south-bound, ap-proached Durkee. street, the engine struck a rig belonging to a peddler named Max Horowitz.

Tn th "tvu with Horowitz was a boy' named Joe Verbleski. They approached crossing s.lowly and 'made no effort to cross the railroad track at. a rapid gait, having evidently forgotten that a train was due at that hour, and did riot hear it as it bore down on tnem. it is claimed oy some -yy engineer did not sound the whistle. The horse and front wheels of the wagon were off the rails but the en- n.

A barrel of apples, that was in the wagon, were distributed over the surrounding neighborhood to the great of the small boys. Horowitz and the boy suddenly found themselves in the luckily far enough from the tracks so that the train did not luucij Liiem, wnue tne norse Kept them so badly injured in the back that the police soon put him out of his misery.

The fourth anniversary banquet of the Young Men's Sunday Evening club of the Congregational church, held Friday evening was an especially brilliant and successful event. The first banquet of the club- given four years ago, was attended by just twenty members. Today the organization is nearly 560 strong and upward of 250 of these took places at the banquet board, showing that the membership but interest, as well, has increased in an. extraordinary manner. The members had been invited to the church at 7:30 o'clock, and from that time until 8:30 o'clock, the guests of the evening passed the time pleasantly, in the large audience room, engaged in conversation and enjoying a program of excellent music as rendered by the Sunday school orchestra.

At 8:30 the guests formed in? single rank and in time with the Manhattan Beach march, slowly entered the church parlors, which were used exclusively as the banquet hall. It would be no- exaggeration to say that this room never presented a handsomer or more inviting appearance than it did last evening. The arrangements had been under the supervision of an executive committee of the ladies of the congregation, and that they fairly outdid themselves was shown by the complimentary remarks heard on all sides. The long tables covered with snowy linen glistening with silver and cut glass, the light from the over head electric globes, nicely blended with that from piano and library lamps and candelabrum, all served to add beauty to the scene. Each guest found a carnation awaiting him, while large bunches of American beauty roses decorated the tables.

The guests after bowing their heads during a short prayer, were soon seated, and doing full justice to the following excellent menu, served by the young men of the club: MENU. Escalloped Oysters. Olives English Celery Pickles Tongue Veal Loaf Ham Chicken Salad Wafers Hot Roll's French Coffee Assorted Cakes Fruit. That the repast was sufficient for the most demanding epicure was easily visible on the faces of the banqueters as they turned their faces toward J. A.

Hawes, who had' been selected to act as toast master. The following program was carried out and was exceedingly interesting and entertaining, the different speakers putting into the responses to their toasts, a spirit of mirth and good nature, that could not but attract. The only gentleman not on the who was asked to speak was Rev. Guido Bossard, of Oconto, who was present at the banquet as a guest. The following was the program: Music Shepherd'?

The following resolutions were unanimously adopted after the meeting had been addressed by several speakers. Whereas, we believe it to be the duty of every citizen opposed to the continuance of the liquor traffic in our citv to declare such opposition, and Whereas, all existing parties, except the Prohibition party, by silence or evasion, stand committed to the continuance of the present saloon system, we therefore Resolve, that a Prohibition party ticket be placed in the field at the coming municipal election, so that all who are prevented, on principle, from supporting the policy of license parties may still have a voice in our municipal affairs. Whereas, we recognize that there are many members of other parties who also desire the suppression of saloon traffic, but who believe that men found in their own parties are the best men to serve the city in official capacity and who agree with the policy of their party, except in its attitude respecting the liquor traffic, we therefore Resolve, that in making nominations for municipal offices we select, without regard to party affliation men whom we believe to be free from saloon dictation and Whereas, wg believe that partisanship does not best promote the welfare of our city and that while we nominate a party ticket only, because we cannot with integrity sup port other party policies, we stand $1750 A YEAR.

Several months ago the young lady students of Ormsby hall, planned the purchasing of uniforms for themselves, that could be worn both in the gymnasium and on the street.

When the Christmas vacation arrived the subject was allowed to drop for the time being, but enough interest has" been revived to warrant the ordering of the suits. Thursday a number of girls visited the Russell shirt factory and were measured, this company having contracted- to make the suits. Petti-bone's will furnish the The plan of the suit has been slightly changed, as it was first thought that a short skirt would be worn. The young ladies. decided that they would prefer the regular bloomer, as then, the uniform could be put to good advantage for wheel ing purposes.

The suit will be of navy blue, will have the bloomers, a loose waist, cut high at the neck, with a. wide sailor collar and large sleeves. Around the front of the waist will be placed three rows of black braid, to give the outfit something of a military appearance. The suits will be neat, and comfortable and the wearers will present a natty appearance when attired in them. Six O'clock Tea.

One of the prettiest entertainments of the season was given by Mrs. Hattie Alexander Wednesday evening at her home on Oneida street. The house was beautifully decorated with flowers and small tables were placed through the parlors where the guests were served with a dainty luncheon. On the small cards found at each plate was written a couplet or prose sentence prophesying the future. The tea test also afforded considerable amusement by the various answers given.

Among the questions were: What our forefathers fought for. (Liberty.) Forever and ever. (Eternity,) the answers being the letter or its sound. The balance of the evening was spent in playing progressive anagrams, the prize being won by Miss Effie Gerry. The tally cards were 'flowers done in water colors, and partners were found by drawing innocent looking cards on which were plainly printed words that might have been Welsh or Choctaw, judging from -the curious spelling.

In truth, every one was made up of the transposed letters of flowers. Much pleasure was given the guests by Miss Georgia Hall who rendered several selections from Chopin. Thus an evening came to a close that will long, be remembered by Mrs. Alexander's friends. Daily, Feb.
