All the latest shades and styles in WALL PAPER Paper Hanging and Decorating Sign Writing a Specially D. G. KAVANAUGH A complete city ticket was selected by the democrats at their city convention, held last Wednesday evening. August Boettcher presided as chairman and W. I. Speice was selected secretary. It was a delegate convention, the delegates from the wards having been selected the previous evening. There was but one candidate for mayor, the present incum bent, and hie nomination, as well as the remaining candidates on the ticket, was made by acclamation. Mr. Held wes not present at the time the nomination was made, but he appeared in a few mo ments und thanked the convention fur the honor. It was his desire to serve a second term, but in accepting the honor he said he wonld use his best efforts for the interests of the city. The remain der of the ticket, all of whom are at pres ent incumbents is as follows: Police judge, Win. O'Brien; city clerk, Win. Becker; treasurer, Walter Boettcher; water commissioner, P. J. Mc Caffrey; engineer, Charles Wurdeman. In the selection of councilmen, butoneof the present incumbents, Lionis Drunken, who represents the First ward, was re nominated. S. J. Kyan was not a candi date for re-election in the Second ward aud the delegates from that ward select ed Win. Kurt. George Willard in the Third ward positively declined another term, and Charles W. Freeman was then nominated. Iu the Fourth ward consi derable time was spent selecting a man to run against George Winslow, but fin ally the delegates named Gus Prieb. For member of the board of education there were three names before the con vention, Ijouia Lachnit. A. F. Plagc manii aud Carl llhode. The two latter were withdrawn and Mr. Lachnit was the unanimous choice of the convention. Aftor completing the ticket the follow ing ,-"i,trai committee was named: Jer ry drug, chairman: Fred Plath, Mark Burke. G. B. Speice and G. W PbillipB. Routine business was about all that was transacted at the council meeting Friday evening, but one of the com munications before them was a request for an increase in salary by the city clerk. During the last few years the work has become much heavier and City Clerk Becker thinks he should have a raise to 6iOU a year. And in this con nection, the council acted favorably up on the request of Water Commissioner McCaffrey, raising his salary to $70 per month. The bill of Win. Cornelius for ?"Ji) for legal services iu connection with the chemical engine was one of those al-1 lowed. Friday, March 24, being the last day for receiving bids for the new chemical engine, the council adjourned to that time, when the bids will be con sidered. It is quite probable that the clerks and judges of election for the city election April I will be named lit this meeting. It may be sumo time be fore contract for the new chemical is awanh d. as the tire committe expects to make a thorough investigation before purchasing. The city of Omaha recent ly purchased a Sea rave machine, quite similar to the one to be bought by this city, and they expect it to arrive in a few weeks. The company making them advised the council of this and when the new machine arrives in Omaha the Ore committee will go doivu and observe the test made by that city, and this will probably govern their action in making a purchase. After an illness of over three months. Win. Boriiemann died Sunday morning at his home on East Seventh street. About the llrst of the year he suffered from a sevi re attack of pneumonia, from which he never fully recovered, this with other complications caused his death.

Even the mna who is down has a divinity about him that refuses to be saliptied with nuytbing short of .God. We read of meu Hocking to the Ganges, the multitudes bowing at ancient and modern ehrines.the company of crusaders and find in modern society scarcely an individual that under some circumstan ces does not seek the supernatural. Men who are living in sin and iu open violation of heaven 'd decree in their soul are revereut and almost christian at times. The face of au Indian womuu beamed when she was first taught of Christ. She said "I did not known who be was but all my life my heart has been bleeding for him." Call this uni versal faculty that has made paths to the sacred waters, to the shrines to find satisfaction what you will, it is in the soul universal and is there to draw man heavenward. One day the b wallow stretches out its tiny neck northward. Something is a stir in its little being. It spreads its wings and takes ite northward (light. The children behold the spring visitor and clap their hands that warmer days are coming. The wise man shakes his head and voices the old proverb, "that it takes more than one swallow to make a summer" While thewise tnanis"pro verbing" the one swallow is joined by auuther, the warmth spreads its green over field and forest and nature sings and grows sweet and summer is here. There was something iu the little life greater than man's logic and calandar calculation, something that was prophe tic of spring-time. Thus spiritual as pirations in a man's soul draw him up ward and onward toward Cod and is prophetic of larger experiences. The pr.slor of the Congregational church will discuss this proposition next Sunday evening from the subject: The man God created and his development - Man and His Spiritual Aspirations. This series of sermons is drawing large audiences each Sunday evening. You will be welcomed next Sunday. Of the morning, 11 o'clock, the subject will be: The Gospel Process of Sun ship. William L.
