"If It is not too early to venture prediction the
Republicans of New-York will be organized for this
Presidential campaign never before" said promi-
nent Republican yesterday. A reporter of The
Tribune who has talked with the officers of Harrison
and Reid campaign clubs in nearly every Assembly
District In the city during the last week, has found
that the club meetings are largely attended IN spite
OF the warm weather; that even the lukewarm voters
ore coming to the front with demonstration, OF
PARTY enthusiasm and determination to begin work
at once and That numerous new clubs are beihS
formed wherever there seems TO be an opportunity
DO do effective work. Indeed, the number OF new
clubs TO which each district has given bi'th is Simply
wonderful and the membership of all these various
clubs is reported TO be growing constantly. some

private and the casket sealed. Let the
friends be spared the public demonstration
of their grief The scene is always most
distressing one and could well be spared IN
every case.
One more thing, l think these under
takers will bear me witness, needs reform
ing, and that is settling the bills. vi all
disgraceful debts, debt to the undertaken
seems to me the most disgraceful Pay
him up. And when your are settling the
funeral expenses don't forget to thank the
minister. You may have taken whole
day of his time when he could least afford
to spare it; you may have occasioned him
GREAT Inconvenience. Now thank him for
it, Do that much. 1t is debt you owe
him. Don't forget it. 1t is one of the
mysteries of my profession that people SO
invariably forget to express any gratitude
for the services of the minister. Not once
a year is he even thanked for his services
in burying the dead.
Lastly, don't go to the newspapers and
and ask for the publication of an obituary,
free of charge, because you have been tax
ing the paper for years. There is no rea
son why the publisher should give the space
in his paper gratuiously than that the under
taker, grave digger or liveryman should
render their services free of charge.

THE MORTGAGE.

He bought it in 1868 a farm of stumps and stones
mis- name was God BE Glorifed his surname it was
Jones;
He put a mortgage on the farm, and then in con-
scious pride
in twenty years III pay it up, said God Be Glori-
fled.
The mortgage had hungry nav that s"alIo"eu
corn and wheat;
He toued with patience night and day to let the
monster eat:
He slowly worked himself 10 death, ana on the cSin
hillside
They laid beyond the monsters reach good GOD be
GlOrifed.
And the farm with its incumbrance of mortgage
stumps and stones,
II fell to Young Mechizedek Paul Adoniram Jones;
Melchezidek was a lively youth, holy, godiy man
And he vowed to raise that mortgage ike hooie
Puritan.
And he went forth every morning to the rugged
mountain side,
And he dug. as dug before him, poor old God be
Glorifed:
lie raised pumpkins and potatoes down the hoh-
ster's throat to pour
He gulped them down and smacked his jaws, and
calmly asked for more.

gray
ON the hillside through snowdrlit they aug MS
grave one day
His first born Eliphalet had no time to weep and
brood,
For the monster by his doorstep growled perpetually
for his food
He fed him on his garden truck. he stuffed his ribs
with hay,
ba fad m md buttpr. but he would not
go away;
And Eliphalet he staggered with the burden, and
then he died.
And slept with old Melchizedek and God BE Glori-
fled.
Then the farm it fell to Thomas, and from Thomas
fell to John,
Then from John to Eeazer, but the mortgage sill
lived on;
Then Il fell to Ralph and Peter, Eli, Absalom and
Paul;
Down through all the generations, but the mortgage
killed them all.
About score of years ago the farm came down to
Jim
And Jim called in the mortgage and gave the farm
to him,
There's no human heart so empty that it has no ray
of hope.
so Jim gave up the ancient farm and went to max

He grew fny-miIl ionaire, bloated pampered

He owned ten railroads twenty mines ard the whoie

And thousands did his gruif commands aud lived
upon his bounty,
And he came home bought back the farm and the
entire county.
