The Central, Third auh Fourth ward Clubs
ID old .he finest Campaign Meeting.
The renegade Republican-which
of all things is the most detestible-
D. H. Sanders, who essayed to speak
for the Afro-Americans of st. Paul, in
an article in the Globe a few days
since in which he said they would
vote for Smith, got his answer from
the meeting which was held at 317
Wabasha street last Monday night.
The hall was packed to overfowing,
many scores having to leave because
they could not get in. The meeting
was called to order. by that stalwart
Republican who has been a leader in
the party for the last twenty years,
and who works only for his love of
the Grand Old Party, as he has never
held any Office nor sought one, Harry
B. Howard, president of the Central
Club, who made neat little speech
.elling the object of the meeting. At
.he close of HoWard's speech j. @.
Adams was chosen to preside at the
meeting and on taking the chair he
made short speech. Mr.. F. D. Par
ker was the first speaker introduced,
and made a rafting good speech,
While he was talking the Republican
candidate for mayor and in fact the
next mayor Of st. Paul, came in and
Mr.. Parker was compelled to stop
.alking while the audience shouted
themselves hoarse for Frank B.
0oran When Mr.. Parker had fin
shed Mr.. Doran was introduced and
eceived another ovation. He gave
me of his characteristic talks stating
lis position and his intentions when
le again resumed the reigns of the
I ity government next June. He

storff, Republican candidate for city
treasurer was, then introduced and
made an excellent talk. He too is
well acquainted with the city's at
fairs, ! as he has held several Of
fees of trust and emolument He
will make good city treasurer. Mr..
A. 4. Pruden, another candidate for
the assembly, and one of the finest
men in the city, was the next speaker,
and made fine impression. Mr.. Ar
thur Gaines, the popular candidate
for reelection for constable was the
next speaker, with his characteristic
generosity he had more to say about
Hart N. Cook, C. S. Hoff, F. B. Doran
and other candidates than Of himself.
Mr.. Charles s. Hoff, candidate for re-
election as Justice of the Peace, was
the next speaker and made splendid
talk. While he was speaking Capt
John w. Fnehout entered the hall
and his popularity was attested by
the warm reception he received. He
was called for and made a fnesspeech
that made all feel good. The finest
speech Of the evening was made by
Mr.. p. p Wade. who can be counted
on as Republican under any and all
circumstances He ripped the Demo
Gratis up the back and paid special at
.tention to De Bob and De Gang. His
speech was by long odds. the best
campaign speech of the evening. He
was followed by Mr.. Frank Arnold,
a candidate for the assembly, who
spent considerable of his time COM
plimenting Mr.. Wade upon his mas
terly effort. He however, spent CON
siderable time talking Of finances,
taxes, etc. and closed amid applause.
This was the last speech OF the even
ing and the crowd after giving three
cheers for Frank b. Doran and the
whole Republican ticket ad journed.
After adjournment refreshments in
abundance were served and at a late
hour all repaired to their homes after
enjoying one Of the very best meet
ings Of the campaign.

Of Mr.. Doran S speech Mr.. j. @. Adams
offered the following, which was
unanimously adopted:
Whereas, We believe that there is
more to be hoped for, more to be ex.
pected from party that processes to
be our friend than from one that
makes no such professions and whose
actions show it to be anything but
friendly, and, & . za. - T..
Whereas, the Republican party has
not only professed to be, but has
shown by its actions, for the past
forty years, that it is our friend, and.
Whereas, just because there may be
a few bad Republicans in the party,
we do not deem it to our best inter.
est to condemn or forsake the party,
as we consider a bad Republican bet
ter than good Democratic there
possibly can be such a thing, there
fore be it b
Resolved, That we again declare
our loyalty to the party Of Sumner, of
Lincoln, of Grant, of Mckinley, of
Roosevelt, and pledge ourselves to
vote for the representatives of the
Grand Old Party at the coming
election, headed by that honorable,
honest, capable, true and tried. and

When Wit Meets Wit.

John Kendrick Bangs Is the proud pos.
SCISSOR of three young sons. the eldest Of
whom bids fair to rival hi, famous father
in wit The other day Mr.. Bangs took the
three boys out for a long tramp, miscalcu-
lated the distance and found he was firing
the youngsters out. though not one Of them
would confess 1t. At this moment they
came TO a pretty difficult hill. 1t occurred
to Mr.. Bangs to tighten the boys labors by
stirring their imaginations, so he pretended
the hill was San Juan and they were to
charge up to the top. All went well till the
eldest boy stopped in the middle OF the
rush to blow his nose.
Whats this? said Mr.. Bangs. "A SOL
dier stopping during a charge to blow his
nose? Nice soldier you'd make! Why.
you'd be dissraced forever for a thing lie
that"
Il should think" replied the imperturb-
able youngster. that il would be easy
enough to take your handkerchief and wipe
out the disgrace"
Mr.. Bangs continued his part Of the
charge in a meek silence.

His best work Is done at his summer
home. the Chalet Riondbosson, on Lake

the piano until about l o'clock, then take
his first meal of the day. He will again
work until s O'Clock, and then take a walk
in the garden or a swim, for he is a fine
swimmer. Then there will be a dinner at s

NO Originality in Music,'

make certain OF his words. Some one has
| thought that Manru' was not all my own
he said. Some CT the learned ones in America
| who had found suggestions. "reminiscences
and lihenesses Of former masters in his
work had wounded him. They have said
there were suggestions Of Wagner"
And not from him alone-from Others"
said Mr.. Arlington.
But there is no such thing az stealing a
theme in music he continued. He was now
asgressively defensive In music absolute
originality does not exist. 1t is the tenn
psrament of the composer that makes the
work. In method one cannot help but fol-
low those who have gone before. When a
great genius like Wagner introduces a
method that will give better expression to
an idea. IL is only not a sin to follow il,
but 1t il a duty 10 follow IL. In employing
such n method it concerns not so much the
Idea as the treatment in a musical way"
NJ. PaderewSki was evidently deeply In
earnest A piece OF music must be built
like a house. OF a church" he went on.
You would not accuse an architect of be-
ing a copyist IL he but windows In a house
would you? And yet he Is merely doing
what others have done. Likewise when
you read the works Of the great poets, YOU
would not accuse Browning or Longfellow
of plagiarism IL they used the same style OF
verse as some one else? Their thoughts Won
would consider and not so much their
method.
Music. you see. is different from poetry.
II appeals TO the ear. A sound. or a COM
bination of sounds. in a work that only
have to do with the method. may remind
one of some other music. and the whole is
set down as not original. Let us look at
the prelude to the third act in .Manru.'
That has been criticised. There is one run,
a little run. that reminds one of Die
WalkuTe.' I knew it. l tried to avoid 1t. but
could not. Others heard II and they talk
of the suggestion from Die walkure.' Yet
the theme Is not the same.
How do you find time TO compose and
how do you work." / asked.

have said was stopped by a knock. Again

General Greenhouse Says

General Greathou.e of California was
then adviser to the king. He told me the
mountains were full of gold and Thomas

who put the lights into The Kings palace.
described to me how the Kings ministers
once brought him a box filled with gold
dust and nuggets in ayment OF a bill
against the King for electrical machinery.
Nj. Power said that one OF the nuggets
was as big as the palm Of his hand and
about an inch thick. His bill was for ST.

amount when he sold 1t at the mint in
