PIRST MEETING YESTERDAY. A large number of people assembled at Lin - celn Hall yesterday afternoon, filling the hall to overflowing, to hear the opening temperance address of Francis Murphy. Many persons who arrived late were disappointed in procur- ing seats. The large choir improvised for the oecasion, under the leadership of Prof. B. Bur- lew, was seated on the platform, and rendered appropriate music from time to time. The audience appeased to be composed largely of temperance people, as almost every one pres- ent wore the blue or red ribbon. | Hon. R. A. Hatcher, of Missouri, was an- | R. nounced as chairman of the meeting, and after reading of the Seriptures, prayer and singing, Mr. Murphy was introduced and greeted with great applause, and when the confusion of greeting was over, the speaker delivered an address, (ocenpying about an hour), in the language and style for which he is so noted, during whieh time he kept the undivided at- | tention of the audience. At the close of his | remarks, a gentleman member of Chrystal | Fount Division S. of T., presented him in be- | half of that division with a handsome floral offering. The printed pledge, on cards, on each of | which is Mr. Murphy's autograph, was then | introduced, and several persons’ took this pledge publicly. Mr. Murp! %, John Love esq. of Philadelphia Nati hristian Temperane Anna Wittenmeyer, of Philadel dent of the National Women’s Temperance Union; Miss Frances E. Willard, of Chicago, and Mrs. Mary Johnson, each of whom enter. tained the audience with brief addresses, urg- | ing upon those present to sign the pledge and | receive the blue ribbon. It being impossible for all to get into the andience room, an auxiliary meeting was started in the chapel of the Y. M.C. A., con- dueted by Mr. Wm. B. Hawes, and stirring ad- | dresses were made. THE MEETT The meeting to-day wa fe commenced at noon, but long before 11 o'clock Lincoln hall was filled, and Mr. Murphy deemed it ent he meeting nce. The first Lest to 0] at if be he meeting may id to have been 1 con, pnee and reception meeting, books at once thrown open for Signatures to the \ inging, Mr. Murphy made as! the nature of an exhortation, an ‘Ss were offer Ishort experiences followed. The singin nd Mrs. Wilson was very fine, and during the meeting the books were kept open for signers of the pledge, who donned blue ribbon, and so numerons were they that the cards brought to the meeting were RE used. Mr. Murphy does not hold a meeti to-night, but will K again at the meeting to-morrow from 12 to 1 o'clock. and also to- morrow night. At Lincoln Hall last evening a Dashawa meeting was held, when another jam occurred, the hall being insificient to hol_one halt of those who ¥, ited toatiend. Mr. Murphy was amol the s received. | ening, as will be seen by the ad- | it.

Justice on the Window Breakers. editor Star :—The merchants here suffer by thieves, who break our costly bow windows. When they get caught in the act, and are brought before Judge Snell he gives them 30 or GO da ys; that is te say, he virtually tells them, *‘I won't punish you hard this time; go and break another one first, then you'll get it.” By this mode of justice, somebody else has to suffer first.
