 An adjourned meeting of the Central Dem- ocratic Club was held last evening at G. A. R. Han Town Agent Reynolds occupied the chair, presiding with great dignity over the very dignifed body in session, in which were large number of old, substantial and wealthy members of the party. The meeting was at work an hour before it took it's first ballot for president To the excessively warm weather was superadded a cioseness of the atmosphere caused by the overhanging rain clouds and the meeting dragged little, be- ing impeded by parliamentary tactics and many appeals to the chair, which were heard and treated with imperturbable gravity by the very just and equitable chairman. At last names were called, and one after another, amid much solemnity, the members walked up and deposited their ballots. The result was preponderance of the votes for Judge Levi B. Bradley, with aless number for Judge Robinson, six or seven for ex-Representative A. Heaton Robertson, and few other scat tering votes. On the next ballot Judge Bradley had a large majority, and the election was made unanimous amid applause. Fol lowing, E. M. Graves was elected correspond ing secretary, MT. Bollman, the assistant law yer in the Buchholz trial, recording secretary, and James Reynolds treasurer. No vice presidents were chosen, there being 22 to be elected, two from each ward, and this lengthy proceeding being deferred until the meeting next Wednesday evening"

Ladies' Gaiter Boots

 And just to put you your guard, I'll give you, short and brief, 4 small hotel experience, Which filled my heart with grief.

And often in my nightly dreams They swept before my face, A lady growing out of them, AS flowers grow from a vase. But, ah ! one morn I saw sight Which struck me like stone Some other name was on the book; Those boots not alone!

 corner of Court and Olive streets, where the fellow resisted, grabbed the officer by the throat and set up series of frightful yells. Officer Stokes had a severe tussle with the man, but stuck to his prisoner and called for assistance. The fellow finally lay down and kicked so that the officer was unable to drag him along. An officer arrived and the united strength of the two was insufficient for what was needed. Another officer soon arrived, and the three made the fellow walk. After the third officer coming he got up, though before he had insisted that he could not Officer Stokes is awarded much credit by those who witnessed the affair, for his pluck and determination and efforts to preserve law and order.
