 After the abuhdance of good things pro- vided had beef disposed of pr. Adams called the attention of those present, and after 8 ff.iSf statement of the reasons that had brought GhsM together and complimentary remarks to Mir. Blagesley he called on Rev. M. H. Houghton for speech.
 MT. Houghton spoke in substance as foi-- lows: On behalf of our host, MT. BisEos~ ley, I bid you cordial welcome. The1speak- CT said he believed in reform. The devil has had his way long enough. Most of the saints had gdns to glory and others were on the way. We are beginning to see that if we are to enjoy anything in the future we all the good horses in this world be- long to the devil, while the four minute horses belong to the deacons 6Ed the minis ters. believe that the most perfect horse is the one that attains the highest rate Of speed, and care not whether he is owned by minister, deacon or anyone else. 1rejoice to see tneh Hhe have the courage of their con Vietions would rather take my chances for heaven with such men as you than with those long erred and long faced people who abhor fast horse. The speaker then urged the building of mile track in this city, in this theological, dark benightcd city. We do not want to do anything wrong, but VIC are made of social natures and I want little Of heavenly bliss here, and have it when l ride at q fast rats up and down these avenues.
 Charles R. Whedon was called out and made a brief address. He said that while hc did not know as much about theology as the last speaker yet he was in sympathy with him so far as good horse was concerned. He said he believed 8 horse wSs the most fn- telligent animal in the world, and his work and intelligence should be appreciated. Rufus Smith was called out and made brief address, expressing his pleasure at being present.
 Henry c. Seabrook, the Park street car riage maker, was the next speaker. He stren- ueusly advocated mile track in this city or it's immediate vicinity. He said suitable track and building could be provided for from $75, ,O0O to $1OO, 900, and he believed it would pay from 1o to Is per cent. on the invest ment. He was willing to help in such an un- dertaking and would do all iii his power to in duce others to invest their capital in it Ali that was needed was concert of action on the part of those who believed as he did, and the de- sired end would be speedily accomplished.
 Henry Cowsll spoke in similar vein. He believed in the purchase of 8 suitable plot of ground for a mile track and said he would do his share toward obtaining track that would be credit to the city.
 After an address by B. c. Lake, jr., for the ''Press" and 8 vote of thanks to MT. BIakesley for the splendid banquet provided the company retired. all well pleased with the evenings entertainment,
