The affair was a delightful one, divested of all formality and an occasion of renewal of fealty to Republican principles and of promises to work to duplicate the success of the late election In the Second ward In all the wards of tho city where such op portunities offered themselves. The dinner was a splendid repast add ing to the reputation which the Harri son house enjoys In disposing, of such enterprises. The menu which the din ers heartily, discussed as they sat round the triangle of tables was: nine points' boullllon Clastone. young turkey, with stuffed oyster dressing and giblet sauce, cranberry sauce, ham, wldpped potatoes, June pens, fillet of beef, with mushrooms, veal croquettes, celery, olives, mixed pickles, pickled beets, chicken salad, ice cream, maca roons, fruit enle, angel food, nut cake, fruit, coffee and chocolate! When cigars were lighted, Mr. Humphrey became toaslniaster an characteristic of him, he surprised his guests and friends by the happy way In which he acquitted himself. He marks were made by all of the guests, but tho most Interesting were the ad dresses by Frank S. Hoemmelmeyer, the Republican candidate for mayor and Abe L. Salem, common councilman elect. Mr. Kommelmeyer ' made a strong point for the. strenuous young men In politics and in this connection pointed out President Roosevelt, Jerome and Goddard, of New York city, as splen did examples of their force In the poli tical life of the country. Mr. Salmi, in discussing Ids big ma jority, said characteristically that the man who would be successful In poll tics, as in all other things, must go in to win.

VSB1 mp mmmg mamm i" M M, 5 E&g weiry Gives Working The Snow's Metamorphosis Tersely Told by Colonel John McComb. Two persons sat in The Tribune of fice yesterday discussing the fate of tho snow-llakes that swept the town a few days ago. Colonel John McComb was one of the two; the modest representa tive of The Tribune can prove no alibi, so he must have been the other. The different processes of numerous Mr. Flake were touched on; his passing, his metamorphosis, Ids loss of reputa tion In the face of other forces of the olr, and a whole lot of such things. Each of the two had his opinion of the reign and downfall of Mr. Flake, but It took the Colonel to aptly describe matters. Beaching into his vest pocket and pulling out his fountain pen, he dashed off two paragraphs, which everybody will agree are an apt and right clever description of Mr. Snow llnke's sojourn nnd his loss of reputa tion. The story runneth thus: TRANSMUTATION. 1)V .IOII.V M'COMIl. The tl.tl.rs cil .now, ulieii tliey lluttcr, ami tlu-.li Tin' lio.iullful c.ntli with ttt liuli.
