It will be shown by ifcinoiis'rnrien, and

the law and formulae are derived which
establish the relation nnieng the eloments el
any orbit; viz., tlie olecit, area, period and
eccentrlcily.
It will alHe be shown by theso demonstra

The HMjaker of the evening, Waller T.

Riiialt man with a strong voice and a large

Mew or words mid lads that wen truly won

loens could net fland for nu hour. He an
nounced as his opinion that a large majority

ler the overthrew et saloons. Weel the Pro

A jeung man sitting Iu his elllcu Iu the
upper Meers of a building listened te a
speaker In the street belew, who hnd placed
11 beard across two barrels, and from them
was addressing a crowd of thirteen men ; and
the young man lelt pity for the Hissaker who
was ae loelish as te think that he could ac

be unable te erganl70 the state legislature
and take possession el the courts unless it
could hnd purchasable votes, mid proceeded
te demonstrate that the saloons he debased

niade easily purchasable. "As long as a sa

platterm had but cue great plank and that
related te slaver. Like the Prohibition
party a pirty of ene ldea, bread enough

The Kepublican party was a party of
ene Idea and, that idea attained, the
soul of that pirty lias gene aud it is a
party without any soul. It I dying mid
will seen be dead. He then graphically
