THE CRUX OF THE MEETING.
The optimist and tho pessimist vere
out In arcat force last night nt cruncil
meeting, and it was interesting to
note how each viewed the outlook for
the Count and his flyer. The prom

seemed to go very slow with their
enthusiasm. It is evldtn?. that the en
tire success of the meet depends on
