A Scheme Worth Trying.

"Say"
1t was evident that the man who
stood in the door Of the fire engine
house was terribly in earnest.
"What is it?" asked the fireman.
"You have an opportunity to prove
yourself true friend to a great many
people if you are willing to do it"
I'm do anything in reason" said the
fireman. What do you want me to
do?''
why, you see, I live in that big
apartment building on the next corner,
and there's II woman in the fat above
me who plays the piano all the time"
"Well?"
well, l thought maybe if l turned
in fire alarm it would give you a
chance to rush up there and ruin that
piano before any one had time to tell
you that it was a false alarm. What?
You won't? l might have known you
were no true friend to humanity. -

uigains and Houston T0.Nir ns.

Messrs. Higgins and Houston will no
doubt receive rousing reception at the
Young Mems Republican Club, No. $40
King street this evening, Arrangements
have been completed to introduce every.
body who comes to the two candidates,
and men, women and children are well
come The members Of the club have kept
open house for Republicans for the last
sixteen years and they are never so happy
as when the crowd is too big for thor
spacious building Every Republican
candidate for years has been given this
honor by the Club and the Republicans of
the city and State are therefore familiar
with the place. The reception begins at
8 o'clock and will last almost until mid
night.
Everybody is invited. The house will be
opened to all corners, but President Geo.
W. Sparks has extended special invita-
ton by letter to the several presidents of
the following political clubs in this city:
The German Republican Club, the Swed-
ish Republican Club, Hebrew Republican
Club, Mckinley Club of the Second Ward,
Lincoln Club Of the Ninth ward, Blanh-
ard K. Bruce Club Eighth Ward League,
Hebrew Independent Political Education
al Club and the well known Republican
lnvincibles. 1t is gratifying to see the
party SO well organized as this array of
clubs indicates, and nothing gives more
hope for the success of the ticket than this
knowledge The members of these clubs
constitute the active working force of the
party. They look after the qualification
OF their fellows. 1t will be a grand in
SEPARATION to them to meet those for whom
they propose to work and whom they ex-
pect to elect next November.
As we stated above, it is public reccp-
ton, and everybody is welcome. There
ara hundreds of Democrats in this city
who mean 70 vote our ticket this fall They
are welcome tonight. This is good time
to begin 10 look around, to make the ac-
qnaintance Of the candidates, to see what
manner of men they are and TO talk with
them. John c. Higgins is peculiarly and
essentially man of the people He never
loses friend and he has the respect and
confidence of every one that has over met
him. Robert G. Houston is young man,
about thirty, and just the age of his ven.
cradle kinsnan, Hon. John w Houston,
late judge of the Superior Court, when he
was elected to Congress fifty years ago.
Young Houston is chip off the old block.
He is OF good Delaware stock, and Is a
brave, conscientious man, who has made
up his mind to make this contest on prin
eiple. He is sound on the tariff and the
money questions. They will have a rous.
ing reception and big vote in November
