The meeting of the fire board, called for last evening, to investigate the charg es preferred against the employes of the fire alarm office, failed of consummation. After waiting fully a half hour for Com missioner Schweitzer, the leader of the movement, adjournment had to be taken, and all present were instructed to be present at the next meeting, to be held on the 20th. .. The absence of Commissioner Schweit zer was credited to sickness, a telephone message to this effect reaching- the mem bers after they had waited a consider able length of time. The employee of the fire alarm department, including Supt. Cary, were' present, but they had nothing to say, beyond jokingly passing- on the '"killing" that seemed imminent. It was reported that the employes had agreed to ignore the whole thing- by failing to at tend, , but their presence discredited the rumor. According to the statement of Supt. Carey, a meeting of the. employes was held, but no determination was reached to quit in a body in case one of their n,umbor was removed. They decided to all stand together in case removals were made without cause and on political grounds only. Chief Jackson, the new head of the de partment will assume charge today. He was around yesterday becoming acquaint ed with the office, and will enter upon his new duties without delay. The per sonnel of the department as far as known will not be changed.

The panel was completed at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the three jurymen required having been secured by that hour. The first to satisfy the re quirements of the attorneys was Peter W. Oakley, who Hves at 403 Humbol.it avenue north, and conducts a real es tate and insurance business in the Ka sota block. Within a few minu*^ afterward Kd ward J. Bronson, a tinner, whose resi dence is 2810 Harriet avenue and place of business 509 Seventh street south, w;is called to the stand for examination, and with very little formality he also joined the elect. Mr. Nye stated that the de fense did not care to challenge Mr. firon.. son, and when the state had asserted that he had no scruples of conscience against the death penalty he *as ac cepted and sworn. O. N. Anderson, a photographer, living at 4246 First avenua south, was the twelfth and last' to be landed. Mr. Penney from the beginning- showed a disinclination to admit to the jury box any foreigner whose command of English is at all open to doubt, and his discrim ination in that respect was plainly ap parent. In several Instances he exerted himself strenuously to justify the disqual ification of candidates who were of for eign birth, and in one case went so far a? to use a peremptory cnallenge when all other means had proven fruitless. The questioning of different talesmen examined during the trial also brought out strongly the fact that the state is un conditionally oppored to th»- selection of a man out of work. So pronounced is this feeling that Mr. Bardman has evert used a peremptory when necessao'. Juror Raymond's health was slightly Improved yesterday, but not enough £6 as to give any assurance that he is to ■ be a well man through th-e trial. Hid condition will be closely watched and any alaming symptorms of a breakdown will probajbjy be ..regarded as sufficient to. warrant his removal from.he jury. Be cause of. .his. advanced jt-ats. Mr. Rav i ifcond-. has not the recuperative '.powers that would enable a younger man to stand the strain of jury service., Court adjourned at 2:15 until this morn ing at the request of the defense. TROUBLES OF A PASTOR nOMEiSTIC QIARHRiUS OP THOMAS- BERG FAMILY AIRED IN COURT. Rev. Nels J. Thomasberg-, of Minne apolis, was tried in the police court yes terday on a charge of assault and bat tery, preferred against him by his mother-in-law, Mrs. Christens, n, 430 Sherburne avenue. Thomasberg and his wife do not live together and last Sunday he went to visit her at the home of her mother, where she Is now living. One of his chil dren was seated on the lap of Mrs. Chris tenson and the latter alleges that he seized the child and held It in the air in a manner which frightened her. When she remonstrated, she alleges, he pus>hed her to the wall nearly choking her. Thomasberg admitted the assault, but maintained that he simply repulsed her when she attempted to take his chiid from his arms. Mrs. Thomasberg cor. roborated the testimony of her mrithor. Judge Hlne withheld decision pending the settlement of the habeas corpus proceedings which have been instituted by Mr. Thomasberg upon whose informa tion a writ was issued by Judge Bunn, Thursday .requiring Mrs. Chrlf-tenson to produce in court his three children, who, he claims, are forcibly detained.
