The Second Meeting Held Last Night.

street seining for news he observed the
| dark outline OF the figures Of number Of
men sitting In the windows of Messrs. Clint
| Il Thompson's law office. There WAS but
| little light and il all smacked so much Il
the mysterious that the curiosity
| of the reporter was at once aroused, and he
began TO consider the position and the
best tactics to he adopted to get into or
very close TO the meeting. The rotten avn
ing and other obstacles showed him at n
glance that the position was impregnable,
and he at once arrived at the conclusion
that he must enter if he entered at all, by
the straight and narrow path, while
at the same time he carried with him the
sweet reflection that he was not likely TO
hnl good Saint Peer guarding The portal,
but nevertheless he assembled the steps
With a firm but stealthy tread to find Mr..
Powell Yeargan on guard. AS soon

sjar and closed it and as he did so several
heads unacceptable in the dim
light bobbed around the opening to eaten
glimpse of him. You cannot come in"
said Mr.. Yeargan unless you join. The re-
porter essayed to CLEAN some information
concerning the object of thu meeting, but
succeeded in catching on to but very little
so to speak. While he was ,torturing Mr..
Yeargan with one of his largest sized
pumps another door leading from the room
flew open and out popped
Rev. w. d. Knowles, who beg
ged the reporters pardon for
keeping him en- the ragged edge of expect
ancy informed him that the meeting was
not exactly secret but that at the same time
their deliberations for the present were ION

himself in this language exactly bat it
is the sum and substance of
his remarks and as the scribe
made his way at fnnera-'ike psce down
the steps, he was assured that he would be
furnished WITH al. the dots in due time.
"C-cw mary yor eot in there?" asked the
| reporter, calling back. about fifty in all,
