The Dis- pensary depends wholly upon voluntary contribu- tions, and at present its treasary is very low. and the idea is to repeat the performuuce in order to plenish ic. 1t was stated thut Mr. McVicker did not encour- age the givinzof the ewmtoriainment at his nouse; that he aid not desire the children snd their of the Dispensary to come uuless his company dwl mot do well enough. wben bhe would give up his house for one evening for 3100. sud allow a mati- nec for 5225 more—SG25 in all.

Mr. laverly expressed o desice to aid the charity, fo would {urnish his house for one evening performance and one mati- nee for $450. In addition, he would get up the necessary scesery and furnish such propertics as were necded. The reason of ihe charge was stated that he would have to pay 3 company i ingup the Liouse onc night, and the penses of running the house would be bsrely cov- ered by the other $100. The proposition was received with much favor, It wasstated that Mr. Haverly's theatre would nold a great many more people. and that he would do ali in his power 10 maxe the cutertaraments a success. 3 After some little devate, Mr. Haverly's proposi- tion was acceptea, and it was deciden to take the house at Lis price.

Mr. Adolph Schoen- inger cailed the mecting to order, and, nfter friends stating the odject, proposed the Rev. Robert Collver 8s Chairman. lLie was unanimously elected. Mg.

The Rev, Robert Collyer read n letter from John McEwen, a echool-teacher, in which the request is made that the school-teachers e Included in the armaugement to be made. Mir. Shoeninger did not think that « sufiicient amount could be rised 10 include the échool-teachers.

He hoved cach one of those pres- ent would mnke cfforts during the week to learn how much woney conld be raised for that pur- pose. M. Vocke was greatly in favor of doing Eomething for the leachiers, who were a3 much ip necd of the money as the policemen. About $1,300 would cover the amouut. . e moved that thie teachers be included in the afd to be farnished 1o city employes. The motion was adopted.

TIE SUPERSEDEAS DUSINESS. ‘The conviction of those miscrable loafera and cowardly hounds, Hugh and voln Garrity, has been received In the ciiy with feelings of rellef by all. Even those with whom the Garritys came in ocensional contact realized that the scoundrels were o constant menace and ever-present dauger, aud they too are glad that the thugs are fo be pat awsy for twenty-one months at least. Ilutthero is even yet no certainty but what the sluggers may parade Clark street again within a weck from this date. They Intend toapply at once to on of the Judges of the Supreme Court for s supersedens, and.” if tils is granted, they will, 2sa matter of course, be admitted to beil. To let Jolin and Huuls Garrity free on the strects of Chicago is to zive a judicial sanction to murder. In their evil hearts there Is but one thought, how 1o obtain revenge on the men concerned in the re- cent prosecution. T'wo years of Penitentiary life may tone them down somewhat. but their libera- tion now would mean only freedom for them to kil, wmam, aod disfgure any one agusinst whom they had 8 grudge. \when they wet back to Chica- go there will be murder done, cald-blooded, cal- cutated murder, 1t is no new thing for llugh or Jahn Gatrity to strike o man from behind. They never yet dared to face evena boy In fair aght, al- though physically they are amply able to cope with mien of more than average strengtn. But the ¢ grit* is yot there. ‘The echeme now is to refafn the thugs in the Jail of Kane County at Geneva until the euper- sedeas can be obtsined. To do this they will have to work upon the feelings of ‘two persons, tnc Sherill of Kane County and the Clerk of the Clr- cult Court there. 1t rests 1n the discietion of the former us to what tlime within twenty days from Friday last he shall convey the scoundrels from Geneva to the Penitentiary. Be bas threa or four other jail-birds already sentenced upon his hands, and in the regular course of thyngs would remove the whole outfit to Joliet Monday or Tues- day. But_ as a preliminary to thls he ‘must have the Penitentiary mittimus for ench one prepared by tne Circuit Clerk, Friends of the (?arrl(_vl Joudly boast that they will not be fortheoming, and that the sluggers will not get their hair cut at the expense of the State this time. Sherlf Mixer stands prepared fo take the villains to the Penitentiary to-morrow, ang, if anything is suffered 1o stand 1n the way, the people will knotw whom to blame. Onco behind the grated walls of Joliet, the murderers will be powerless for misch'ef. If a supersedess is granted then they will not saff=r, for they will be retamned in the Penitentiary, but not forced to work, and. as they never struck an honest stroke in their lives, this ought ta be a great point for them. "T'o show 10 what extent the supporters, friends, and apologlsts of the injserablo hounds are pre- pared to xo, let the reader note this: Yesterda: morning the reporter who had been in attendance on the trial at Geneval met, on the southeast cor- uer of Clark and Raudolph streets, one L.

To the Editor of The Tribune. Crcaco, May 25.—Pray don’t think that any extraordinary freak of nature asserted itself in my garden, and that under its Influences the 2abbages went hobbling around on their stumps, followed by the * peas, beans, sad barley, oh!” 2l singing the old war song: Tramp! tramp! tramp! The boys are marching It was nothing of the sort, but it originated in this way. 1 bad decided to have a garden, and had given toy Jeremiah & number of lectures replete with forcible, orthodox arguments, clearly proving that o wan shut up inan ofiice all day would be much benefited by working in a garden’ morning and cvening, ard I expatiated elo- quently upon Adam’s having been put into o garden, until Jeremiab became enthused with 1ny spirit, aud went to work with rake und hoe in'a way traly refreshing. " But when, after some bours, I walkea out to view my plantation, aud found my strawberry plauts completely and irrevocably hoed up, and o row of weeds nicely billed, it will not takea very great stretch of fmagination for you to be- leve we when [ say, in the words of Josfah Al- Ien’s wife, ** I didu’t encourage Lim in jt.” But what was to be donet Should I put my band to the plow and then turn back? = Perish the thought! I woutd have agarden! but how ¢ “Plegse ma’am, to give & POOr man some- thing to eat?’ said a voice at the kitchen-door; wue of those peculiar voives, hall whine, lalf threat, which tramps slmost olways sisume when they flnd they must face the inevitable and ask for food. - I was standing in the pantry when I heard this request, aud, mechanically Tifting a dish of bread and cold meat, I turned and was aboat to set it before him, when a sudden inspiration struck me, and I exclaimed: “The very thing! why noti? * Certaluly, ma'am,” respouded the tramp, as I hesitated. ~ * Hain’t scen a sight like that for many a day. The very thing! as you say, ma'am,” and he proceeded to throw his old hat on the floor, and appropriate a kitchen chair preparatory to atracking the repast. “Do you sec that garden?” I asked, return- ing the food to the pantry with a determined air. ‘*You spade well the carth nthat long Led, and plant it with these peas, and then you cun have ail you wish to eat.” A mighty cloud passed over the faceof that nau, but, glancing toward the pantry, he heaved a sizh, and departed to the back yard. Before noon I had three otber” beds prepared in _my wurden by as many suce e tramgs, and, as the summer waned, it contfaued to i crease fu size and procuctivenecss until there was not a garden iu alf the neizhborhiood that conld compare with mine. That is wby Tcall it a “tramp garden,” and it there is any other woman afllicted with a Jer- emish who cannot ;tell the difference between un opion and an apple-tree, I aavise her to go and do likewise.
