TAKAPUNA JOCKEY CLUB. A meeting of the stewards of the Takapuna Jockey Club was held last evening at Airs. Brown's Flagstaff Hotel, North Shore. There was a good attendance of the stewards, and it was resolved, after considerable discussion, "That a special ineotiug be held ou tomorrow evening, at eight p.m., for the purpose of deciding as to whether the day lor holding the next meeting (29th January) be altered or not. There seemed to be a pretty general feeling that the date should be altered, it' such could be done without iucouveuiencc to the club or its patrons. After this business was disposed of the prizes won at the meeting held on the 30th ultimo were paid over to the successful winners, and several toasts in bumpers of champagne sueli as " Success of the Club," and the good health of the wiuners, was drunk and responded to. Altogether a most pleasant evening was spent, and from the large attendance it is very evident that the Takapuna Jockey Club is in great favour with the sporting public. Several of the Auckland bookmakers were present, and did a very fair amount of business.
