President Peck called the meeting to order aud stated the object was to take up the thread where dropped last week.

The players are all pleased with the news and are willing to remain in the city so long as there exists a ray of hope. They know Manager Lucas will not hold them upon any false statement. The directors of the Magazine Match Company held a meeting yesterday to hear the report of Manager Ruse on progress made, and it was satisfactory.

The Dem. Is trying to pay oil bovs who sold it the whistle labelled, ''mouibw of tlie Democratic National committee." They paid two installment's iu last Thursday evening's issue; one by announcing that Mrs. Judgo Hayes "aud other notables" appeared in the gallery during the Mills tariff speech. The other was writteo on memorandum supplied by the ''brilliant young Democrat" Cato Sells, who the Dem. Gaz.

The Des Moiues Register, and other Republican papers also, have had some experience with his "personal mentions." votes ahead of his ticket two years ago the official vote shows that he ran 71 votes behind the highest, and only 710 ahead of the lowest candidate on the ticket. This, too, wheu he made a personal campaign to boom himself, personal votes everywhere. on the morning of election, lie sent nearly 1200 telegrams to all parts of the State, asking that efforts should be made for him personally, as lie would "run ahead of his ticket and surely be elected." There existed a suspicion among the friends of the other candidates that Mr. Sells did not "tote fair" iu that campaign. The editor of Dem.

Gaz. knew all this; but Sells was in the Hayes scheme to put Richardton ou the Natioual committee to beat Murphy, and therefore owns a section of the editorial page of the Dem. Gaz. By watching its columns, the public who read the paper, will know when they hear from him. The Dem.

Gaz. says that Mr. Sells has decided to decline the nomination for Secretary of State. The public can rest easy, Mr. Sells will not decline any political office that he thinks he can get.

It is his occupation. We care nothing for that, as Frank Jucksou can beat him easy as anyone else, but we like to see Dem. Gaz. tell the truth iu payiug oil tlie boys who did the work at St. Louis, Wont her.

When questioned as to his he told a stoiy which may havo been straight, but was told in a veiy undecided manner.

lie said that he lived at Des Moines, his name was Albert London, and his father was janitor at the Webster School, that last Saturday his lather and mother came in to "take the town of Hock Island, and brought him along, and lie got lost soon after they left the train and didn't. know where his parents were. -It is more probable tlie boy has run away. Monday evening Chapter 15S of the association held their regular meeting at the Academy of Sciences- After the usual routine of business the program was carried out. It consisted of a carefully prepared paper on th' tfc Warblers," by Edward Decker, giving tho natural history and classification i interesting family of birds.
