Incidents of the Meeting.

Some OF the incidents of the meeting
that were overlooked in the excitement OF
the moment arc now coming TO light.
Among them are some spicy debates
which occurred between Mayor Pingree
and various other leading citizens on the
platform when the din was at it's hight.
Some of the dialogues ran like this:
Chairman j. b. Moore, president Pen
insular Savings bank-You are a dis
turber, mayor. You have 20 more rights
at this citizens meeting than another cit
izen.
Mayor Pingree-Shut up you corpora
ton banker
S. NJ. Cutcheon Ga leading attorney)-
Let me say word.
Mayor Pingrec-You gray headed cor
poration lawyer, you ought to be ashamed
of yourself | will never leave this plat
form till am carried off.
Chairman Moore--Lct everybody sit
down.
Mayor Pingrec-Shut up or will tell
them about your style of banking.
Chairman Moore-I'll tell them how
you came to borrow money from me.
Mayor Pingree-And how you lied.
Moote-Yes but had sense enough to
keep my money.
Political Fortunes Injured.
The whole affair was unworthy n crowd
of hoodlums and is bitterly denounced on
all sides. There has arisen cry for the
mayors resignation, but it has gathered
no force as yet. 1t is certain, however,
that the mayors political fortunes have
been seriously injured. He has 'alionated
the best element in his party in the city
and the Republicans of the state do not
feel kindly towards him since he sulked
at the recent state convention when he
was defeated by Governor Rich in the
gubernatorial contest.

was composed of a green gold band, set

It ought to be said that American
brilliants are not worn now as imita-

to stout women. These will be the heads
OF my sermon:
Firstly, wear soft, clinging materials;
leave heavy stuffs and fluffy stuffs to
the slim.
Secondly, don't line your skirts; GRIN
oline is for the willows.
Thirdly, don't put balloons on your
arms: full dropping sleeves expose you
to less ridicule and are just as fashion
able.
Fourthly, don't tighten the waist; it
makes you look stouter. Moreover it
gives you tremendous, hips and big
bust and these this winter are out Of
fashion.
Filthy, don't wear a velvet bodice; 1t
increases the apparent size.
Sixthly, try satin; it lessons the
size.
Sevpnthly, wear dark colors.
Eighty and lastly, for long sermons
have gone out, try always for up and
down lines; eschew cross effects.
