the upper part of the ward. and il is Of utmost
Importance that the bridge should be built

Mr.. Mills is a candidate worthy of the sup

the ward. Mr.. Eberhart had not voted for
Mr.. Mills, but he felt gratified that so good a

and privilege of the Third ward
to build bridge connecting the two sides of
the river. Mr.. Ebert's words were greeted
with loud applause. Capt. Mills being called

nicipal favors. Three rousing cheers were

SIXTH WARD.
The Democrats of the Sixth ward met en-
masse at HOLY Rosary hall. By O'Clock
every inch of standing room was occupied
and at least two hundred were unable to gain
admttance. With much eXertion chairman
was finally secured, the lot falling to Louis
Frederickson. This was regarded as a Walsh
capture. William II. Henshaw was elected
secure order, but his efforts were as
truitiess as though he had attempteg
TO quell the storm that was ragind
outside. At Mr.. Frederickson's feet sat Mr..
john Lally, who served in the capacity of
prompter, much to the Indignation Of the
Stoit men. Before any progress had been
made in business, an unlooked-for innovation
announced itself. The floor in the center Of
the nan sank suddenly about two inches, one
OF the supports breaking underneath. A
general rush was made for the platform,
aesplte the yells of the chairman for "Orderl'
IL was some minutes before quiet was again
restored, and then the ball opened again.
Motions rolled in on the chairman, and he
STOOD ike statue. His supporters endeav-
ored to urge him to speak, and OCCASION
ally he would attempt 10 ouell the
disturbance, but without avail motion
was made to take an informal ballot for al
derman. 1t was seconded and SO were two
or three others to the contrary, ACCOMPANIED
by one or two more to adjourn to another
hall. This babel of confusion was too much
for the chairman and he sank back. 4 n
Campbell came to the front and put a mo-
ton to adjourn and it was carried amid
shouts of mo, no." After good deal of
haranguing John Lally called for police pro-
lection. This was met by a shower of Kisses
from the Stoft men, and any further discus
sion in that direction was dropped. Ii was
very evident that 1t was impossible TO
hold onnans I'm the hall h~.L
