Secretary Blackburn, of the Music Hall Association. was telling how the Democrats secured .Music Hall for the last Saturday night preceding the election.**It was through no neglect on the part of the Republicans,” Hald the Secretary, “but on account of an error In dates. Amor Smith came to sec me about getting the hall for the Kepublf-cans for that night fully three weeks before the Republican Convention was held. 'We were then laboring under tbe delusion that the election was to be held on the second Tuesday in November, nud so the Republicans were given the hall for Suturday, November 9. Now the election will be held ou Tuesday, November 5, and the last Saturday before that is the‘2d. Last week )an Daltou came in and engaged the hall for the Democrats on the 2d, and not five minutes later Amor Smith came in and told me of the mistake, but he was flye minutes too late to make the change. So the Democrats will have the hall on the last Saturduv night before the election, and the date for the Republicans will, I suppose, be canceled, unless they will want the hall then to jollify over the election results.”
