time. Delegate Brown did not see how the dele
gates were to get along without beer at meetings
lasting four or five hours. He thought that they
would be dry meetings" The antl-beer faction
carried the day and II was resolved to engage the
hall OF the University Settlement and the first
meeting Will be held there Sunday.
