II In tho evening the streets wsr,
T ablaze With bonfrss, and anvil .
lutss rent the air in honor Of tn
silver orators who were to addrss,
the people on the important issues
Of the campaign. At an early hou,
Metropolitan hall was crowded with
an enthusiastic audience, there b.
ing many ladies present, Ill wsrs
eager to hear the speakers expound
the principles of the Silver Repub-
lican and Peoples Democratic par.
ties, which are idsntically the same.
Hon. Geo. g. Mills presided 1t
the meeting, and with : few we'll
chosen remarks introduced the firsl
speaker Of the evening, Hon. James
W. Eden Of Pocatello, who was one
of tho Democratic presidential cleo
tors in this State four years ago,
but who, 40 q silver Democrat, il in
perfect accord with the principles
of the Silver Republican party.
Nj. Eden halls from tho State Of
Kentucky, 10 m ex-C onfederate off,
Ger, and in his address said that
politics in this campaign hsd made
strange bsdfellows; that there Was
he, an old Bourbon Democrat, max.
ing campaign tour with what be
used to term - black republican"
but since Mr.. Borah had repudiatsd
the old Republican party and taken
up the cudgel for silver that be was
. white republican" and he Was
proud to take him by the hand, for
they were both fighting under the
same banner.
Mr.. Eden grew eloquent in that
part of his address in which he ap-
pealed to the men of Blsins county
to vote for the return of Mr.. Dubois
to the United States Senats. He
said failure to do 90 could not be
in accordance with their honest
convictions.
The speaker also urged voters to
cast their ballots for Hon. w. r.
Borah ~ . Representative in Con.
gross, that hs would prove an able
co-laborer with Senator Dubois for
the cause Of tho white metal.
At the close of Mr.. EdeD's ad-
dress, Mr.. Mills introduced Hon.
W. e. Borah to the audience. Mr..
Borah's reputation 40 q finished
orator caused him to Be greeted
With . burst of applause.
The distinguished nominee for
Congress made I mastery address.
He spoke with ease and fluency Of
speech. He stated in his opening
remarks that it would be entirely
out Of plass to enter upon I discus-
sion of the silver question that 10
all-agreed in this part of the coun-
Try that through the restoration of
silver alone prosperity could b ~
stored. The only question peril
nent for discussion Was how Ne
could best serve our causes.
The speaker further said that be |
believed the rank and fils of Ill
parties, Populists, Democrats and
Republicans alike, are loyal 70 sill
yer, and that when it became clear
to them that any particular man
could best serve them, they would
unhesitatingly support him.

THE CLUBS HISTORY
The Los Angeles Athletic club was Or
ganized September s, 1880, with men,
bership of forty-one. On October 1st
they took possession of two bare rooms
know as Stearns' hall, which were occu-
pied until January /, 1882, when quar-
tiers in the Downey block were fitted up
and the club started as an active agent
of physical culture and social enjoy
ment.
The club grew sometimes slowly, but
all the time surely, until the accommO-
dations were too small, and negotiations
were started in 1889, which resulted in
the quarters just vacated in the Stowell
block.
Six years in the StoWcll block he's seen

club, but is built and equipped through
out with the raison d'etre of the institu-
ton always in view-the convenience
of the athlete. With regard to it's equip
ment in this respect it is difficult to
imagine any addition or Improvement
The new quarters will prove indeed a
paradise for the young athlete While
''all the comforts of a home" and a
good many more are provided for the
bachelor athlete, those insidious tempta-
tions for extravaganza or ,self-indulg-
ence, which are sometimes too promi-
nent features of club life are conspicu-
GUS by their absence. The club intends
to live up to its birthright and name
and to be athletic above everything else
There Is no bar, no liquors or refresh
ments are served within its gates. The
chief ambition of the board of directors
evidently being to cater to the best
and most healthy requirements of the
young athlete, who can join the club,
not only without any chances of tempta-
ton to drink, but without those easily
descended avenues of eXtravagance
The vestibuled entrance to the club
Is exceedingly handsome. The floor is
of thing, inlaid with the letters L. A. A.
c., and the walls and ceilings of oak
with carved shields and the club en-
blems in large panels on either side.
The heavy plate glass door. which is
opened to the stranger by an electric
switch from the secretary's room above
is surmounted by large art glass tran
som, with the club emblem worked in
the center in colors
In the hallway beneath the grand
staircase is the most convenient accom-
mediation for wheelmen, another advan-
tage over the old quarters in that there
will be no dragging up and down stairs
of wheels Indeed, the very handsome
stair carpet precludes such an idea. The
wheel room contains 200 bicycle racks
of very convenient construction.
Directly facing the head of the
main staircase Is the secretary's
room, very conveniently situated
for the administration of af-
fairs by the officers of the club. Within

THE CLUB AND IT'S BOARD
The Athletic club today numbers no
less than $40 members, which is a con-
siderably larger membership than that
OF any similar organization In the city.
