The 'crop of aldermanlo candidate is thriving and both the republican and demo cratlc conventions will have an ample Held to select from. All the present members ot the city council are willing to be renom inated, but there are others anxious to flit their aldermanlc shoes. This condition pre vails in every ward In the city, Many of the would-be city fathers are making an active canvass in their respective wards, acting on the principle that the early bird secures the worm. Charlea Huber, democrat, at present rep resents the First ward, which has always been considered a democ ratio stronghold In the city council, but this year he will not only meet opposition In his own party, but the republicans will make a strong effort to wrest the ward from their oppo nents. While it is positively stated that Huber will have opposition In securing reoomlnatlon, there ,1s considerable secrecy as to the Identity of I he man who will be put up against him. On the republican side three possible candidates are being talked about. They are Carl Morgan, George Hamilton and Charles Atwood. Any one of the three Is regarded as a strong candidate. " In the Second ward E. R. Lougee, re publican. Is desirous . to serve another term, but J. D. Johnson, whom Lougee succeeded in ths council, Is In the Held and will make a fight for the nomination. The Fecond ward is strongly republican, and so far only one democratic possibility has been talked of. He is W. B. Fisher, a printer and labor union man, who Is being urged as a candidate by his friends. Fisher, however. Is not anxloua to run, as his business requires all of his attention. Kaox Against Brow. Ohio Knox la being mentioned by the republicans In the Third ward. He la said to be the business men's candidate, and If he consents to enter ths field will. It is said, give E. C. Brown, present representa tive from this ward, a close run. BrovB h,s stated that h win not be a candidate for renomtnatlon unless he Is the unanimous choica of the convention. Robert Green Is also said to be a candidate pa the re publican side, as Is William McCrary. The democratic ranks contain several alder manlo aspirants In this ward.- Among ths number are John Mulqueen, secretary of the Retail Grocers' association; Pat Gun noude. Main street grocer, and John W. Schoenlng, Implement dealer. If C. W. McDonald is not nominated for mayor Ije will be a candidate for alder man again from the Fourth ward, and un doubtedly will get the nomination if he asks for it.- Slack- Peterson is Bald to bs a candidate for alderman from this ward la the event of Mr. McDonald's being nom inated for' mayor.' Among the democrats W. L. Douglass, keeper of a laundry, and Charles Paschel are mentioned. Paschel Is said to be an active candidate; D. G. Clark, present alderman from the Fifth ward,' Is out for a renominaUon, but others In the republican party are anxious to wrest It from him. - Hans Hansen, com mitteeman In the Second precinct. Is an avowed candidate, as is Chris Loseth of Sixteenth avenue. The latter expects to have the support of the Scandinavian ele ment. Friends of C C. Cllftbn are urging him to be a candidate, believing that If he will enter the field be can get the; Domina tion. The democrats ara talking ot Joha Brough, who a few . years ago served the Fifth ward in the council. Lee Evans. secretary of the democratic", city centra! committee, Is also being talked ot In con nection with thla office. ' - . - . Opsasltla Lovett. Israel Lovett, alderman, from th Sixth ward, will not secure a renomlnatloo with ¬ out a fight, as there are several other re publicans eager to serve the party and their ward in the city council. John M. Harden, former street supervisor, is making a red hot canvass, and A. C Harding, former member of ths park board. Is also out In the field aa an avowed candidate. '. W. C Boyer, familiarly known aa "Uncle Billy Boyer," democ ratio councllman-ax-large, is a resident of the Sixth ward, and it Is said he would prefer to represent his ward rather than the city at large in ths council, and for thla reason will be a can didate for the democratic, nomination. W. A. Wells is ssld to be also anxious to serve ths Sixth ward la the council and Intends to give Boyer a race. Present In dications are thst the Sixth ward will be the scene of a. battle royal thla spring. Lewis Hammer. It to said, wili, be re nominated by the republicans as ona of their candldatea for alderman-at-large, and there Is talk of making W. C. Dickey his running mate.

' - i i , i The city council will meet Friday after boos to consider' the two ordinances In troduced Mondsy night la the Interest of th Great Westers railroad, the ordinance providing for the 'vacation of certain ave nue, streets and alleys by the olty will undoubtedly have to be amended before the council will psss it. None ot ths aldermen. It was Said resterday, will vote for the va cation of Eighth street between Ninth and Tenth avenues as provided in the ordinance. Eighth Street Is the, longest through thor oughfare In the city and Is practically th only ae street that runs ' uninterruptedly from the north to the south limits ef ths city. Residents oh South Eighth street ar up in arms at th mere suggestion of clos ing this thoroughfare between toe avenues named and if th council should decide ea vacating the portion as requested by ths railroad compaay, th matter would at ones be taken into th courts. Ninth street was vscsted - between Eleventh snd Twelfth svenues over a year ago to raabls the Rock Island to bultd Its roundhouse, aad It Is said there will not bs much objection to vacating the block be tween Ninth and Tenth avenues. Tenth afreet Is closed at Twelfth avenue by ths Rock Island yards, never . having bTen platted, aad th 'aldermen asked yester day said they ssw no objection to vacat ing this street between Ninth snd Tenth avenues. As the Grest Western Is figuring on erecting its freight depot on Ninth avenue between Sixth and .Seventh streets, there would not tt much advantage of it in va cating Ninth and Tenth streets and leav ing Eighth atreet open. The refusal of the city council to vacat Eighth street may lead the railroad to change Its plana aa to the location ot Its trslght depot. It Is not thought there will be any strong opposition to vacating the portion of Fourteenth and Fifteenth avenue be tween Third street and th Wabash tracks. Neither of these thoroughfares Is opened through th Wabash and Burlington yards and as the railroad Is said to have ac qnlred all the abutting property oa ths portions of th two thoroughfares pro posed to be vacated, no one will be In jured. The purpose of ths vacation of these two avenues Is to provide room for the erection of a roundhouse, cost chutes and other termlnsl : buildings on Third street between Thirteenth and . Fifteenth avenues. . '. Msyor Jennings said he was unprepared to say what the council would do In the matter of the vacation ordinance, but from talks he had had with several aldermen ha was of ths opinion that they never would consent to vacats any portion of Eighth street, ths mala through thoroughfare of the city.

Ferer, aa employ ot th United Typo- writer Supply company ef Omaha, was ar rested yesterday charged by Flickinger Bros, with th theft of a Tost typewriter. Flickinger Bros., who havs had the ma chine for fifteen yeara in their possession, claim ownership of It. while the United Typewriter 8upr!y company insists that the ownership Is still In It. , ' Flickinger Bros, years sgo rented the machine, paying in rental a aum equal to the cost of tt. Through them several ma chines of a like make were sold in this city and a former agent for th Omaha company presented Flickinger Bros, with the machine. For some tlms past th Omaha company haa been endeavoring to secure possession of th machine, but Flickinger Bros, re fused to part with It. - A fw daya ago Ferer called at their office, soliciting busi ness. Ha was shown ths machine, and after examining it stated what repairs were needed. He wss allowed to take the ma chine on the understanding that he re turn it th next morning.

Ferer gave bonds for his appearance in Justice Ferrier's court Friday morning. - . Fsssral of Mrs. Stevens. . Th esteem la which Mrs. Sarah Fitch Stevens wss held by her many friends and acquaintances waa evidenced by the large gathering at ber funeral yesterdsy after noon and by the many beautiful floral trib utes which graced' ths casket.
