A MEETING of those interested in the improve- ment of Desplaines street, from Monroe to Van Buren, was to have been held lust evening at No. 243 Desplaines street. On account of insufficient notice, there were but few who put in an ap- pearatice, and it was decided to adjourn to next Saturday evening, when a larger attendance is expected. Trere will be a meeting of the local Commit- tee to arrange for the coming Republican Na- tional Convention Monday afternoon at half- past 4 o'clock, in Parlor 1, at the Grand Pacific Hotel.

Ranp & McNauix have just got- ten out a large and fine map of Ire- land, which can be had either bound up with an index or in sheet form. It isa fine piece of work, and, owing to the great interest now taken in Iretand, and the desire to locate the places so frequently mentioned in the cable dis- patches, will doubtless be in great deand. A REGULAR meeting of the Thirteenth Ward ‘Republican Club was held last evening in Rohn’s Hail, on West Lake street, the President, W. A. Phelps, in the chair. About twenty new mem- ers were added to the rolls of the Club, and the remainder of the time was occupied in adopting an amendment to the constitution.

Ham- mond, who has for many years been bookkeeper for Walker, Oakley & Co., died of diphtheria at _ their home, No. 519 Dearborn avenue. They had recovered from the py itself when there ‘came yesterday a sudden and terrible relupse, -which carried them both off within a very short time. Mr. Hammond is so well known, and so well liked by ali who know him, that the news of .this most terrible bereavement will carry sorrow to many hearts. AxovrT 5 o'clock last evening the wire of the fire-ularm whistle of the Grind Pacific Hotel was accidentally caught by the descending freight elevator, which caused the alarm of fire to sounded. The result was apparent at once. All the employés of the house rushed down ta the office to awaltorders. As the em- ployés are drilled regularly as a fire-brigade the discipling was shown by the promptness with which they responded. But few of the guests of the house were aware of the episode, which -ereated quite an excitement in grand ro- tunda fora few moments. Tue d masked ball of the Chicago Turn- minde will be given at the North-Side Turner- ‘all to-morrow evening. These entertainments have hitherto been the leading ones of the kind im the city, and there is no reason to doubt that * to-morrow’s will be no exception to the rule. As usual, special pains will be taken to see that hho improper characters gain admittance and that there will be nothing to mar the pleasure of the evening to: those who attend. e tab- leaux, which always form one of the features of the evening, will be of special magnificence, and include several stri scenes. ‘THERE fs 8 movement on foot to have the tracks used by the Chicago, Burlington & Quin- and INinois Central Railroads removed from Sixteenth street. This time there is.a strong organization being perfectea for that purpose, composed of property-owners and residents of the South Side. It is held that the railroads have no vested rights in the street, and have merely used it by courtesy of the people. A strong petition to the Council will soon be incir- culation, calling for the removal of the tracks as endangering and delaying travel on the South Side. The parties who have the matter in: propose to stick to it until their object is accom- plished. A NUMBER of young gentlemen met in the par- lors of Grace Methodist Church last evening for the Purpose of estublishing a reading-room. It yus decided to call the organization the Grace Methodist Church Heading-Room Association, for the benefit of young men, the rooms for the same, in the basement of the en do- nated by the official Board of the_church. - following officers were clected: President, the ey.

A Memuen of that large and growing clsss who seem to always prefer entering their complaints ata newspaper office rather than to go at once to headuuarters walked into. the locul-room yesterday, held up a dilapidated West Madison street car-ticket with twenty-six holes in it, and proceeded toexplain that Friday night he and is wife got ina Madison street ‘car at Western avenue, and, when be gave the conductor a ticket with four holes in_ it, the puncher Punched twice, and gave him back what he sa] posed was his own ticket. He put it in his pock- et. and supposed it was all right until, in com- ing home, he pulled out the ticket and found it was the one with twenty-six holesin it,—one more than the regular number of fares.—ant hadto buy anew one. Whether it was a mis- take or intentional on the conductor's part, he didn’t know, but he thought it would “make good item for the paper,” and so he dropped in. He dropped out on the suggestion that he’ 'd detver tackle Sir. Lace and eall bis attention to the matter. Huon Borter, of Denver, Colo.. proxy for Gen. Hughes, member from Colorado of the Democratic Nationul Central Committee, was at the Grand Pacific Hotel yesterday, sccompanied by his wife, on his way to Washington, The gentleman, who isa lawyer, was detuined by a ress of business, else he would have been here in time to goon with the Chicago delegation. which left ‘Thursday night. “1am in favor of Chicago,” said he, “as the place for holding the Natienal Convention, because that is the choice of Gen, Hughes, whose proxy I am, and of the people of Colorado, as far asican learn. It is our natural terminus, and here is the place to hold it.” In regard to polities the gentleman would say but little: His State, be sai was small and did not care to dictate, but he thought that the “séntiment was opposed to Til- den. Colorado hé looked upon as a doubtful State, but the ingress of population, which had been large, might turn the tide, and he hoped to see it Democratic ngain. The Utes must go. That was one of the inevitable things, but the matter had not yet shaped itself. The people of Colorado were determined that the Utes should Teave State, and thus allow the development of the vast resources of the immense Ute Reserva- tion. Mr. and Mrs. Butler left for Washington last night. ‘Tue Chicago Philosophical Society held its regular meeting last evening at the Lydian Art Gallery, corner of State and Washington streets, Mr. Rodney Welch presiding. Mr. Helen E. Sterrett delivered a very able lecture on “ The Future of Educated Women.” She took the ground that educated women were reared for something better than common household drudgery. No woman could be contented with simply attending to her kitchen work and fam- ily affairs. A different system of housekeeping has to be brought about. The time was commg when meats would be furnished to families at cheap rates by general cooking establish- ments, the washing would be done in laundries, and heat furnished by steam or electricity by outside establishments. With these improve- ments accomplished girls for common drudgery would no longer be needed. and a better class of girls conld be secured to nssist in the rearing ‘and educating of children, and such help could ve treated as members of the family. Then our educated women would be enabled to apply themselves to such special lubor as was adapted tothem. Such labor would be beneticial to their spiritsand health, and finally prepare them for 6 great desideratum,—the ballot: SOUTH PARK WATER-SUPPLY. Committees from the Boards of Trustees of Hyde Park and Lake andthe South Park Com- missioners held an informal meeting last_even- ing at the residence of John R. Walsh, No. 463 Michigan avenue, for the purpose of talking over the matter of the water-supply in the South Park. The Town Boards propose to furnish water to the park from their Water- Works on nominal terms, and the main object of last night's meeting was to arrive ut_an agree- ment in the matter that would be ee, to both parties. “There were present Messrs. Cor- nell, Price, and Walsh, from the South Park Board; Messrs. Bennett and Ford, of the Hyde Park Board; Messrs. Muir- head and Beister, of the Lake Board; Mr. Condee, the Hyde Park attorney Mr. Cole, the engineer; and ex-Justice Horn, of Hyde Park. Mr. Beunett, of Hyde Park, pre- sided. He said that he thought the Committees could arrive at a satisfactory agreement where- by the Park could obtain an ample supply of water ata nominal figure,and tnus do away with the expense of the construction of inde- pendent water-works. The necessary arrange- ments could be made by early spring, which would be much sooner than they could build. If nevessary, the crib could be exteuded 1,000 feet out into the lake, rendering the water supplied pure and free from send. In conclusion, he suggested that the Town Boards could mect atan cary day, and arrive at an agreement which would be given tothe Park Board in the form of a written contract, thus protecting both arties. This could be done in a week or ten s. Mr. Cole, the engineer of the Water- Works, explained their workings to the gentlc- men present, illustrat! his remarks by diagrams of’ the tunnel and works. An extra suction pipe would ‘be needed to give a sufficient supply, and, if the water, were sandy. the crib might be moved further from the shore. * He thought the pipe leading into the purk tank too small, and suggested that a larger one be substituted. Some further discussion regarding the matter followed, and it was finally decided w call a joint meeting of the Town Boards next Satur- day evening to prepare a proposal which would be'submitted to the Park Bourd at their meet- ing on the following Tuesday for their ap- prov: ‘MESMERISM. Prof. John Reynolds, the well-known mesmer- ist of London, Eng., begun a series of entertain- ments last Thursday evening at Hershey Hull, where he bas drawn large and delighted audiences every evening since. The Professor does some of the most wunderful things ima; able, his mysterious power over others enabling him to perform many curious experiments which he modestly confesses his inability to explain, and in regurdto which he courts scientific in- yestigation. The most interesting of his exper- iments are, perbaps, what are known as the Niagara Falls. illusion, the balloon ascension, gatliering imaginary —_straw- berries "and distributing thein among the audience, inducing his subjects to see an orange tree in bloom and finuliy distributing its fruit, and visions of imaginary mosquitoes, fly- ing birds, etc. The Professor cumes highly in- dorsed by Prof. Wilson, of Ann Arbor; Prof. Wilder, of Cornell, and others of prominence, and his entertainments are not only extremely amusing but very instructive. They will be con- tinued during the weck. THE CITY-HALL. ‘THE Committee on Railroads is called for to- morrow afternoon. Tue work of inspeoting the hotels will be re- sumed to-morrow, starting with the Tremont House. ’ Tre Committee on Streets and Alleys, South, met yesterday afternoon, and disposed ot sun- dry unimportant references. ALD. MCCAFFREY will bid good-by to Chicago about May 1. He goes to Iowa, and will give his time tohis farm, which is on the Buriington qua about 150 miles west of the Mississippi iver.

Tue officers of the Alexian Brothers’ Hospital called upon Commissioner Waller again yester- day in reference to the water-tax against their institution, and satistied him that their work was purely charitable, whereupon he ordered the tax assessed against them to be rebated. Crry-ENGLNEER CREGIER has gone.into the patent smoke-burner business. and has invented & machine which he claims will burn smoke and everything else. One of them will be attached tothe boilers in the rookery in a few days, at the expense of a Mr. Clark, who is the invention. ‘Tae Committee on Streets and Alleys, North, was to have met yesterday afternoon, but a quorum could not be gotten. A number of persons interested inthe matters to come before them were present, but they will have to come again and again, perhaps, to get any satis- faction. <A DELEGATION (Of citizens of the Fourteenth Ward called upon the Mayor yesterday and pro- tested inst the owners of the minufactory on Erie street, which was recently destroyed by re, 5 their building higher than it was peters: ir as armed The protest be turned over 16 Buil partment, and the fa will be looked into. ii a ia ‘THERE was nothing new in the alleged defalca- tions in the Water-Office yestgrday.

They are all quaking with fear,—that is, the old division clerks. The clerks in charge of the meter-books appear to be about the only happy ones around. THE COUNTY-BUILDING. ‘Tre North Town Collector yesterday paid over to the city $15,000 in cash and $1,188 in scrip, to the County Treasurer $6,000, and to the Lincoln .

He guve $2,000 bonds to secure his appearance at the Juneterm of courtat Keokuk. He claims that this is merely 2 revamping of the old charges which were understood to be abandoned at the time of his last discharge. ‘THE numerous ‘arrests of small liquor dealers made by the revenue officers during the last week have nt last justified the urrest of one of the proprietors of’ the illicit still discovered at Crown Point, Ind., two weeks ago. The mnjor- ity 6f thi who were receiving whisky from the illicit stft at that place have been held un- der the best of evidence, and several of the parties implicated’ have “squealed” on tho Hoffman Bros., who were running the still. Yesterday, Deputy Marshal Gilman arrested C. B. Hoffman and lodged him in the County Jail. He will have a preliminary examina- tion before Commissioner Hoyne to-mor- row morning. Other _ arrests © will probably follow within a few days, and there is every indication that it will be shown that the still has been doing # rushing business in fur- nibing very poor whisky to a multitude of small ealers. EDUCATIONAL. * THE COUNTY SCHOOLS. Last Friday 150 ungraded schools throughont the county were examined upon questions pre- pared by a committee of the Llinois State ‘Teachers’ Association and County Superintend- ent-of-Schovls A. G. Lane. Yesterday morning there was a meeting in the office of the County Superintendent of Schools of about twenty-five Principuls of graded schools, and it was determined that an exami- nation should be held of the third, ilfth, and eighth grades March 26, the questions to be pre- pared for the examination by the County Super- intendent. ‘At2 p. m. yesterday a meeting for the consul- tation of Principals of the variuus High Schools inthe county was held.

The Madison-street bridge was closed to the street-cars yesterday, and after to-morrow will impede river travel for several duys. Aboutthe first work to be done in rebuilding the ap- proaches and strengthening the structure is on the centre pivot, which wili be commenced to- morrow, and the bridge cannot be swung until itis completed, which will take several days. ‘The bridge will’be open to foot-travel, how- ever,asusual. Itis thought that the repairs being made cannot be completed inside of four weeks... ‘ . There was but little change yesterday in the abutments at the bridge. The bulging process is undoubtedly still going on, but the movement is soslow as to make no perceptible change. A large force of men have been put at work re- moving the roud-bed at cuch approach. Prep- arations have been made to work a full force night and day, but even then the work will not be completed within three weeks. The abut- ments were built in 185, and it uppears that only one row of piles were driven. The wonder ap- pears to be that ithas Justed solong without serious disasters. [twill be necessary to remove all the ¢levated road-bed und drive a number of piles. As the work is at present, the bridge “is passable but trouble was experienced yester- day afternoon. The bridge. was partially swung, when a crowd collected on the east end and nearly toppled the bridge into the water, us it was nimost wholly without support at the ends. Precautions will be taken tu have pas- sengers go across without stopping at all, and, if this is not possible, a temporary foot-bridge will beconstructed and passengers compelled to cross in single lines. The City Engineers report that Polk street bridge is in much the snme con- dition, bu as it is not considered dangerous, nothing will be done with it for the present. ST. LOUIS AND CHICAGO.

The assurance came in the shape of advices from Murray &Co., of Chicago, that his num- ber— 54,557 "had drawn the second capital prize of $10,000.
