Tests of the abilit.v of the Kis.«el fire engine tractor to do thc work re¬ quired in ihifi city will he conducied here during: the week b;.- arrance- mentB perfected late last ni?:ht by Mayor John V. Ko.>iek. Tf the car quoted -af thc lowest in tie hids re¬ cently opened by the lire eommiltee of councils is equal to the steep hills of the city then the resolut on now in the h.-indp of the mayor for considera¬ tion  will   be  vetoed.
This was thc announeenient made last night by Mayor Kosek. Ever since the committee at i';s meeting awarded the coniract to the Christy Tractor Company, the highest bidders. the mayor has been invesi.igating the merits of both machines.
.Vt a conference last evening with the local agent of the Ki.'<t<l machine it was claimed the diffon nce In horse power was but eight united and that the four wheels instead of Iwo made up this and more. As a linal demon¬ stration of good faith the test outlin¬ ed was proposed and the mayor eag¬ erly assented to such a manner of set¬ tling in ,1 definite nianner Just what could be done.
In the event that the cheaper car at a difterence in price of almo.it a thousand dollars, JS30 to bf- exact, can do the work required here then Mayor Kosek will take a. decided stand in fa¬ vor of that machine. -X. Kissel car will he rushed here at once and toward the end of the week a test will be conducted. The mayor has until next Saturday evenins to make up hia ¦i-mini on *He matter.

Owing to Instructions sent to tha theatre, the usual flig drapery of the President's bo.x was laken down, for the first time In the memory of the Washington public and the band did not play the Star Spangled Banner on t4ie entrance i>f the chief executive, relatives.

WILSON'S QOIET DAY
(Telegraph to  Independent.)
\^¦ashington. .March S.—I'resident Wilson Jiassed the tiuieteLl day since the beginning of his term, atlending no business of Importance and mak¬ ing no annouccments. .\n usual Sec¬ retary Bryan saw the President but once.
Mr. Bryan devoted the afternoon to denouncing as unfounded the ru¬ mor that Kichard <>lney. of Massii- chusetts. is to be ambassador lo Great Britain.
After a long  talk  with  the   report¬ ers this aftirnoon about Mr. Wilson's record   as   Governor   of   Xew   Jersey. Secretary   Tumulty   was   asked   about diplomatic     appointments.     He     said I there   nre   as   yet   onl.v     rumors     to i guide  ofliclals  In  this  matter  and   no 1 appointments  have as  yet  been  seri- j ously  considered. ,
I     Th"  only  assistrint  secretary     thus I far   announced   is   Byron   N'pwtnn,   of ! Xew  York,  who will   be  an   assistant ! secretary   of   the   treasury   under   Mr. Mc.'Vdoo.     S'?cretary   D^rnieN   of   the Xavy   will   announce   his  tirst   assist¬ ant   Monday.     In   most  cases   the  as¬ sistant  will  come from States not yet reiiresented in the cabinet, thiis mak¬ ing   the   admini.'tr.ition   rea^-h   as   far
Edvsard L. Ijcwith of the 10th ward,
will  represent  the  wards  of  the   cen-,
tral  part of the city on  the Board  of
Health. Thi,s announcement was; . made last nigh* by Mayor Kosek.i I This Is the second appointment that: ' has    been     made  to  this  body  which
was  recently  created  by councils  and
the  mayor.
Ijt'with   is  a   member     of     the     Ij. ! I^wiih Sons,  li(]uor dealers,  of South' ! Miiin  sireet and  i^ very  popular.     He 'has   taken  actae  interest   in   city  af-'
fairs for many years and the appoint-
ir,(-nl will  meet with  genf ral  favor in
tlvit se.-tion of the city.    Dr. .Sheridan ¦ the  other  man   named   for  the  board;
will  represent the northern wards.       ] Thre-' other  places are  to  be filled' , before  the  board  is completed.     It is j expected   lhat  the  deci.'slons  in  these! leases   may   be   made   before   Tuesd,iy.'soi.:   of  Chester,   Kent   Island
night when thf entire board m<ike up,^-it!i  a  residence  In   this  city, , may be sent to the select council fori '• Sifflrmation. i
service there hurled iierself on his neck and belore that mammoth crowd she smothered him in kisses and with tears flowing from her eyes they, guided by ushers as deeply affected as themselves, sought seats among lhe other penitents aud for a time their tears mingled the one -with tears of th»" penitent and the other with those of the joyous one.
SISTER BRINGS BROTHER
Another youu^ lady  at the first call for persoual work upon tlie part of the choir member* left her seat far back in the choir loft and with unerring instict went direct to the side of a brother seated among the workers from the Hazard plant and there he, her senior by but a few years, -was j entreated to take the step slie had aiready taken.   He yielded and the youth ¦with head held proudly] kloft. eyes direct to the front, marchedi with steady tread down the sawdust covered aisle, content ta be led for the time bv his sister.
'     HAZARD WORKERS IN THRONG, ¦
Cliums came with hands clasped the one aiding the other m this public step and many amcn^ tlie number wore the hadjre of the Hazard delegation. One man bearing the unmistakable stamp of tae man who imbibed too freely cfme forward sloAvly and hesitating and .Sunday assured him as he grasped his hand that he personally would pray often for hira but that he should remember and piay for himself al.so. Later on ae he gazed at tiie preacher, his lips moved slowly in silent prayer aud later when the song service was in full swav he .ioined in the singing.
BOY SCOUT TO FRONT.
Among the nuinber were many of tender years, among tbe^m a Boy Scout in full uniforar who proudly took his place in the gathering. All around this little group gathered in front of the p.ilpit and platform "(vere eyes'filled with tears. One man large in .stature stood with tear filled eyew and nna.shamed he let them pour down his cheeks. The young man who was greeteii in the heart' touching manner by his .sister was tjie mecca for many of the personal workers and they crowded ' dbout him all, offering means to continue in the step he had taken in *his public manner ' ^
EVANGELIST UNDER GREAT STRAIN
Rev. Sunday is workin? under a great .strain.    His voice is husky and he   repeatedly    showed^ lie effects of the work la.st nigh*.    Several times he .stopped nnnoyed by the crowd putsid'e the "wial! dow and at one time he threatened to personally take in charge the work of   ruling   the    hoodlums. "I  don't  know  if T can preach the three sermons tomorrow or not," he said, "but if you help' 1 think I can rea«h the end of the week." *¦
