the Murray Hin Lyceum by challenging the
correctness of the minutes Of the previous meet

morning the journal. read tonight, is very
incomplete The papers said that one Gilchrist
Stewart talked the greater part of the evening

the subsequent developments concerning Mr.. Stew

Just what do you mean?" asked President Par

out of rice pudding in the Tenderlon, and
would like 10 know whether that the order
of the County Committee or Of the Big Stick?"
No business Of Importance was transacted at the
meeting. President Parsons said that the
primary law would doubtless make the primaries
this year the sixth Tuesday preceding election, in
stead Of the seventh; and so avoid having the
primaries the ~Jewish Day Of Atonement The
