Third Ward CLUB.

A large and enthusiastic meeting was held
at Erd's Hall, on st. Peter street last even
ing, under the auspices Of the Third ward
Hancock and English club. The glee club,
under the leadership of Prof. Kerker, en-
livened the proceedings with several patrio-
tic campaign songs, which were received
with immense satisfaction by the audience.
The president of the club, Hon. Hubert
II. Miller, presided, and, after calling the
meeting to order. introduced as the first
speaker John w. Willis, who, in fine
speech of about an hours duration, reviewed
the record of the two political parties and
their candidates. Wherever the names of
Hancock and Sibley were mentioned the ap-
plause was unbounded, and at the close of
the speech the eloquent speaker was re-
warded with long and continued applause
end a general congratulation from those
around him.
Arthur Koenig was then introduced and
spoke in German. From the laughter
which his remarks occasioned, and evident
satisfaction of the large portion of the audi
ence of that nationality, the hits made must
have been many and telling.
Previous to this latter speech Major Pond
and VIM. ~. Tileston had been appointed
committee to visit tina Central club which
was holding session at the old court house,
and upon their return, reported that the
Third ward club was invited to meet with
tbs Central club on Wednesday evening next,
to arrange for the parade and mass meeting
to be held on Friday evening, Oct. 1st. This
proposition was agreed to, and a resolution
was adopted, that when the meeting ad-
journad, it be to meet one week from next
Wednesday, and that the next regular meet
ing of the club next week be held with the
general club at the old court house. One of
the committee on membership then report
ed over fifty additional names, and the pro-
eeedings were concluded with fifteen min
utes speech by Hon. James J. Egan in that
gentleman's usual incisive and energetic
manner.
