Wednesday morning brought achange
In the atmosphere at Assembly hall.
The day before had been the hottest Of
the season and everybody was weary,
but the cool. fresh air yesterday morn.
ing made everybody feel good, aud the
day started OF grandly.
In tho morning Mrs. Buel conducted
the ". G.. T. U. exercises, again tax.
ing tho place Of Miss Eva John.on. II
was quite interesting, and a number Of
queries were discussed and questions
answered. This occupied the time until
ten o'clock. whep It Ind been arranged
for NJ. ]. Tanning to speak. Mrs. Lath.
rop had been advertised to speak ut this
hour, but she kindly gave way to Mr..
Tanning that he might get home to hi,
sick wife. His speech Is considered by
many to have been the best OF the meet.
Ing, containing the bes; and strongest
argument that could DO made In favor
Of prohibition. At his first speech on
Tuesday evening he created rather an
unfavorable impression by an attack on
the Republican party, M attack, too,
that was altogether uncalled for. His
speech yesterday redeemed him, how.
ever, to a great extent.
After music by The Quartetle the audi.
ence was dismissed with the benedic.
ton. NJ
The cool bret q, that had been blow.
ing from the west all day, continued
att dinner and rendered the hall a very
pleasant place.
The Quartette sang several selections.
and Mrs. Mary I. Lathrop was introduc.
ed. She ia a large woman, makes II good
appearance on the stand and is n fluent
speaker. = Her delivery IL good, aud
while therettwas not much applause, the
attention paid her could not have been
better. 81 U1Tf
She said among other things TINT the
liquor seller has been pushed outside OF
society, outside OF rational organizations
and driven out to cit on the outside edge
Of our civilization. But now what is
done? Why, We now go out there gnl
bring him buck in anu set him down on
the pivotal edge OF our politics and say,
Rule US! Politicians sometimes are not
such bad men some nan have special
qualifications Tor state-craft. But men
who get into politics find that tho road
to Office lies thrtu b tbs saloon. This
Is where the danger ID. All this is be-
cause on the thrUue We have put the
worst. A few men can get together in
New York and manipulate affairs 80
that they will know beforehand how an
election will 60.
She also referred to the report that
Quay has boasted hat he has $500, 900 to
carry Pennsylvania and more on the
way. She had a fling, too, at the Ma.
tional administration. After singing
and announcements for tho evening
meeting the congregation was dismissed.
