Pardon me-" said Mr.. Reid; "it is
hardly that We may have had such con-
tests in the past. but this is not one of them
few gentlemen who intend to relieve tie
national Republican party of the trouble
or nominating candidate by settling it
among themselves may feel that way. but
the delegates are OF contrary opinion.
'Penns ylva--.l. for Instance, will no
doubt support Senator Quay in good faith
as long as its delegates think he has any
chance. but If they fail with him. they will
not then be hunting around for anybody
elsc to beat Mckinley-not a bit OF it. As
matter OF fact. a number of them are too
ca aser TO vote for Mckinley as soon as posi-
Bile.
The New Hampshire delegates gave a
pretty good clew the other day in their
State convention as to how they would feel
in case they could not get Reed. Evidently
they are not hunting for anybody to beat
Mckinley"
Mr.. Reid, in conclusion said that the great
issue of the campaign was the desire OF the
people to get back to Republican rule. That
overshadows everything else.

til a late bourlast evening, however, caused
considerable excitement in the neighbor-
hood of bis home, and not a little anxiety
on the part of'bis parents, who imagined
that all sorts dfiataiitles had befalieh their

own, considers that he is fully capable OF
caring for himself, and strenuously objects
to being tied Ia the apron strings OF his
pretty nttleGernnn nurse, who Is endeavOr-
Ing to teacl, him to "Deutsch sprechen.'
Last night the lad ate his dinner and
started oubfor an evenings stroll and view
or The city ay gas light. His absence loug
after the hour when he should have been
dreaming OF Liie,days wneu he fny occupy
the seat in COngDess now held by his father
caused that gentleman and his wife no
little amount Oh uueasines i.. they asked
The police To search for their offspring.
They were not successful, however. aud
The excitement Increased, the mother was
In tears, and the father had entirely for
gotten any thought OF securing a reelection
in searching for his boy.
About 10 O'Clock lhe-e came ring at the
door bell and John Stone announced himself
as returned. He was very indignant
when Informed that the whole Metropoli-

fused to impart to inquiring friends his
whereabouts during the past six hours.
In a statesmanike manner he declared
that he knew his own business and affairs
better than anyone else, and was man
enough to attend TO them.
The surmisc is that Johnnie had
formed the acquaintance of a little curly
haired, blue-eyed daughter OF a certain
official on Sixteenth street, and that he had
been calling upon her. His parents think
he is beginning love affairs too young, and
