very COED game. not many bad errors

ming, seven runs being piled up by the

ond base for home but was sadly left
Padden again came to the front with a
phenomenal put out. The ball was
knocked down to Prince at third base,

feet out Of his reach. He jumped,
caught the ball in his left hand and
touched the base ruuHer out before

HaIl-An Address By L. T. Dryden.

From two hundred and fifty to three

interesting and eloquent addresses that

time.
1t was the second meeting Of the newly
organized Democratic club Of the Eighth

could not be desired at a meeting Of the
kind.
Mr.. NJ. F. Dryden, who delivered the
address, stepped out on the elevated stage
about eight o'clock, and after sew
eral rounds of applause he commenced
his elooue speech. He first dwelt on the
almost ruination of the "Ship of State'-
how she had been driven on the rocks by
the leaders OF former Republican admins
trations, and how President Cleveland had
come in the nick Of time and saved her
from destruction. He followed this up by
neatly covering the ground as 70 why for
cirners come to this country, when MIR.
Pearson. formerly Of the Wheeling Pot
terry, interrupted him and attempted to
tell Mr.. Dryden why foreigners come
here. and what he received when he came
10 this country. But that gentleman an
swered him right to the point and not q
word issued from that part Of the hall
thereafter, much 10 the satisfaction OF all.
Mr. Dryden, proceeding with his re-
marks. detailed the bankrupt condition OF
the National Treasury when President
Harrison handed over the government to
President Cleveland, and detailed the
serious difficulties which had confronted
the present administration, on that score,
at the very outset Of the Presidential term,
and pointed out how the effects OF Repub-
lican extravaganza and recklessness was
still embarrassing the government. Allud-
ing to the pronounced revival OF bust
ness since the passage OF the new Demo
cratic tariff law, he paused TO point out the
starting of mills and the general revival OF
the wooden industry, carrying with IL an
advance in the price OF wool from TIC 10
22a23c per pound. In this connection he
said:
Il do not pretend to be prophet Of any
kind, but gentlemen, l will 90 so far as to
say that by February, 1885, wool will be
sold at 25c per pound"
There was much applause given to these
remarks, and after great deal OF hand
shaking Mr.. Dryden gave way TO others,
who made some interesting remarks.
Refreshments were then served and az
ter some congratulations on the part or the
speakers the meeting adjourned, all feeling
that they had q much better toothold and
made more Democratic votes in the Eighth
ward since last Tuesday, their first meet
ing.
