Krcotnnn attracted n good crowd to the ( Jhautauiim | nssoinbiy grounds yestur- day afternoon. Ucnh speakers were In their fU'htliiK trim , nnd tlio itcbuto was very inter- e.sting. Most of thi ) nudlenco hud been born nnil brought up In the belief that Shakes * poftt-o had written Hamlet , Macbeth nnd the othur plays which nro eoininnnly attributed to tilm , and they wcro accordingly slightly dlspojed to resent nny trilling with their early belief. It must bo admitted , however , thai when Mr. Donnelly had ilnlshed his first speech , that tno nudlenco hiid como to the conclusion that perhaps ho was right. The main ground upon which Shakespeare's ripht to the credit for Having written the plays was his Illiteracy. The character of Shakespeare , the strolling actor , the pi-elll- gate man of the world , nnd the too often victim of the town whipping post , was thoroughly tllsctmcd , and the idea of sucli n man writing nlnvs which liuvo stood alone In the history of lingllsh literature as master pieces of style , was ridiculed. When Air. Donnelly's forty minutes were up , ho was called to time by n tap of the bell , and Prof. Freeman was given tlio door , tlo took the ground that the Shakespeare plays were written by tin illiterate man , and ho quoted many passsages from them which ho claimed showed that If JJiicun had been wielding the pen they would uavo been very different. Each speaker was also given fifteen min utes In which to answer his opponent. At the close of two hours n truce was called until this afternoon at 2 o'clock , when the clubnto will be reopened.

J. Hutchison for lights at the corner of Tenth avenue and High street was granted. After u long nnd monotonous round of pav ing nnd grading resolutions nn ordinance , suddenly flashed into view , prohibiting the disturbance of the peace in certain places. In effect the ordinance was as follows : "It shall bo unlawful for nny proprietor , owner , or any ono having charge of any store , hotel , tavern , or other place of business , to allow any snoutlnc1 , profanity or obscenity in his establishment , or any" unlawful tran sactions , or to nllow any ono to loiter around it lu idleness.

" This was plainly intended as n blow nt several popular resorts where hilarhy has occussloiiully been on tap of late , and it created something of n stir. Pace thought the city had law enough already if it were enforced , but the twentieth rule was suspended and the ordinance ) was passed. Attention was called to the vast r mount of men and labor it took to do a very little work on the streets , and on motion tno street supervisor wcs authorised to appoint a fore man for every gang of men , whoso duty it should bo to give the lazy ones a "jacking up" whenever they might need It.

The com mittee was fully represented and the utmost enthusiasm apparently prevailed. Most of the discussion was on the subject of a motor line and the members of the committco had evidently como to the sumo conclusion that the general public came to como time ago , viz : That the only way to make the assembly a success is to have some bettor way of getting to the ground has yet been devised. After the innttor had been fully discussed it was decided unanimously to build n motor line between tnii city nnd tbo nssoinbiy grounds.
