Enthusiastic Gathering of the
j ;Central Republican Club
in Washington Hall.
ConsUtntUa and By-Laws Adopted aad

-Searly 1(H) Members.
The adjourned meeting of the Cen
tral Republican Club i t Omaha was
held on Tburitday evening at Washing
ton Hall, where a constitution and by
laws were adopted and the temporary
organization made permanent.
The object of the club, a set forth in
the preamble to it constitution, Is as
follows:
"We, the R publicans of the City of
On aha, Imbued with an earnest detire
to secj the Republican prty in the
coming campaign nominate cone but
homst, non-corruptible, 1 yal Ameri
can citizens for ofllce, and to aid in the
election of such a en when nominated,
and believing that the beat means of
accomplishing thee ends lies In organ
ization, hereby adopt this constitution
for our government."
Section 2 of the constitution provides
that any Republican elector of the City
of Omaha may, upon application, be
come a member of the club. And
any member who shall be convicted of
attempting to use the influence of the
club in the Interest of any candidate,
with the understanding that he is to
receive In consideration thereof ap
pointment to office or money considera
tion, may, by a three-fourths vote of
those present at a meeting, be expelled
from membership in the club; and It
shall be the duty of each member to
report to the club any evidence which
he may at any time have of such ac
tion on the part of any other member.
"The meetings of the club will be
held on Thursday evening of each week
at Washington Hall, and fifteen mem
bers constitute a quorum for the trans
action of business."
The executive committee is well rep
resented by the different wards, being
composed of three members each, in
cluding the president, secretary and
treasurer of the club. Every A.
P. A. council in the city is well
represented among the membership,
besides the friends of the various
candidates for presidential honors. In
it you will find stanch admirers of Con
gressman Linton, Governor Bradley,
Governor Morton, Ex-Governor Mc
Kinley, Ex-Senator Manderaon, Sena
tor Allison, and others. But on the
whole they are men who honestly be
lieve in the principles set forth in the
preamble.
Enthusiastic speeches were delivered
by I. R. Andrews, Professor W. H.
Allen, Joseph D. Piper, Samuel Mac
Leod, C. W. Oleott of South Omaha
and others, the general tone of which
was approved by those present, as evi
denced by generous applause.
There were 78 new members received
Into the club.
The plan of organization is such that
every loyal American citizen can en
dorse, and is not in any way confined
to narrow, factional differences. The
American believes that the success of
a club organized on a broad American
plan is assured.
The next regular meeting of the
club will be held at Washington hall
next Thursday evening at 8 o'clock, at
which all citizens who endorse the
principles set forth in the preamble
are Invited to send In their applications
for membership, each endorsed by two
members of the club.

ABJl RIT10N OP HENRY IV.
From Voltaire's Encyclopaedic Diction
ary Translated from the French.
Daniel the Jesuit can tell me as
much as he pleases, In his very dry
and defective History of France, that
Henry IV., before his abjuration, was
for a long time back a Roman Catho
lic. I will plaoe more confidence in
Henry IV. himself than in the Jesuit
Daniel. His letter to the beautiful
Gabrlelle, "It is to-morrow that I
take the perilous step," proves at least
that he had still In his heart a some'
thing else than catechism. If his big
heart for so long a time since had been
penetrated with the efficacious grace,
he would perhaps have said to his a is-
tress: "These bishops edify me ;" but
he tells her: "Those people give me
the ennui." Are those the words of a
good catechumen?
The letters of this great man te
Corisanded'Andouin, countess of Gram
mont, are not a subject of pyrrhonism;
the original of the same still exist.
The author of the essay on "Les Mceurs
et l'Esprit dee Nations" publishes many
of these highly entertaining letters.
The following are some curious ex
tracts from the same:
"All these poisoners are papists
I have found a killer for myself. The
Roman preachers preach very loud that
there is but one more occasion to go
into mourning. They admonish all
good Catholics to follow the example
of the poisoning of the Prince of
Conde; and you are of that religion
If I were cot a Huguenot, I would turn
Turk."
It Is difficult after this written testi
mony from the pes of Henry IV., to
become firmly p.-rsuaied t t be was a
Catholic even at heart
