A Olub of Business Men And Its Cozy Quarters, HOW IT WAS ORGANIZED. A Few Men Who Used to Go for a Weekly Outing and Engage in Mysterious Pleas- ures—The Growth of the Club—An Oyster ture. EVERAL YEARS AGO afew business men of this city were accus- tomed to enjoying an outing now and then by driving up to Cabin John bridge, and after partaking of » Sunday breakfast of spending the rest of the day in well-earned idleness. The number of partici- pants in these innocent excursions steadily in- creased from time to time, as did the enjoy- ment derived, and with the increased number of the parties participating grew a desire for | other pleasure trips, and visits were made in due course of time to other enjoyable points. While it was not particularly difficult to ascer- | tain just who composed the party at different times it was particularly difficult to learn what was done on the trips. It was very evident that each trip resulted ina royal good time to all fortunate enough to be invited on them, but beyond that all was an unfathomable secret, an impenetrable mystery. ‘This deep mystery as to what forms of amusement and recreation were enjoyed was the leading characteristic of the excursions, and those who composed jhe excursion parties came to be regarded as ‘the ‘most mysterious of beings. WOW THE CLUB WAS onoAgIZED. Despite the fact that nothing could be learned of what happened on these pleasure trips be- yond the one most apparent and all- important fact that they were in every sense of the term pleasure trip, the desire to be one of the party enjoying them grew so sieadily and so rapidiy that before Jong the number far outgrew the modest few | who originally planned them, and a regularly . ganized body became an absolute necessity. ing of en, but any one with the After much thought upon the subject it was test ur © can appreciate its beauty. | decided that the proposed body should be in - Le Breton’s “Out of Spirits” telis a story | the nature of @ club, and, that much decided b does not need a dingram to explain it. | upon, little time wns consumed in arriving at It is not only an expressive piece of composi-| the conclusion that the most appropriate tion, but it appeals to the sympathies of many | name for the organization was “The id not eare to confess the personal Club.” ‘Thus it was that the popular My icture was taken in California, | Ciyb of this city was organized and named, good for an interior taken | Tt was on the 12th of September, 1887, at the aid of a skylight.

While not erected as a club house, the building is admirably adapted to such a purpose. It is a substantii ing, two stories and basement, with a good- the tion. ies aise WS BA sized back yard. In warm weather the yard BN if ‘ Proves a cool breathing spot. and in one corner XS of it is placed a large roaster, whereon during the “R” months the delicions oyster is roasted and served,to the great enjoyment of the mem- bers of the club. A well-equipped bowling al- ley is found in the basement. On the lirst fioor is an elegantly arranged reception room, and back of it a conveniently arranged billiard room. On the second floor is large hall and the card rooms. The house is elegantly fur- nished throughout and every convenience af- fording comfort has been secured. \ {iq fh sociability among the business men cf the ci the existence of the fair sex is by no means forgotten, and two or three times a year enter- tainments are given in the hall of the club for their bencfit. These entertainments consist of dancing parties, musical and literary gather- ings, and sometimes the ladies enjoy an oyster | roast at the club. It is, perhaps, needless to | say that invitations to these events eagerly sought by the wives, daughters and sweethearts of the members. A BUSINESS MEN'S CLUP.

NEW YORK WOMEN ARE RUDE, ‘They Tread on Each Other's Toes and Are Overbearing to the Salesgirls, From the Baitinore American. ‘The annual shopping carnival offers the best opportunity for the observation and study of the New York woman, her manners, peculiar- ities and characteristics, Perhaps the feature that would strike you first is that She who ex- pects that you will offer her e seat ina street ear does not hesitate to push and elbow you or stumble over you while she calmly pursues her way through the throng. Men have no rights in her domain, but if one ventures here he must do ail of the dodging and tacking. The New York woman's treatment of her sister is even less considerate. In the crowded stores she bumps directly into another woman and treads upon ber toes without a tinge of her conscience or @ pasting “beg pardon.” Asrnde as are New York men in crowds their rudeness is not to be compared for = moment with that of the women toward each other.

ON MOUNTAINS, BUTTERFLI£E High Altitudes Which These Little Creatures Reach. From Pearsall's Weekly. . | A correspondeng writing from California gives | interesting observations upon the occurrence of butterflies at elevations much above any noted n Europe. It is remarkable, says he, that | these cteatures of asummer day ean fly so far and can bear such a degree of cold as they can do in crossing oar mountain rang Last summer, while on a peak of the Sierra ada mountains, at an altitude of 13,000 feet, I saw butterfties sailing leisurely about in the air above me with no more ado than if it had been a lowiand garden. That was above the line of perpetual snow. In climbing tiat peak } Thad passed over snow ten feet deep. At another time, in the summer of 1890, I saw butterflies at an altitude of 11,000 feet on a mountain of British Columbia, near the south- eastern frontier of Alaska. ‘There was a pass, although a high one, on the mountain and the butterflies were going through it toward tho east and seemed to be migrating. Although these were not so high as those seen on the Sierra Nevada, yet in a latitude so far north it was surprising toses them—practically almost under the Arctic circle. The butterflies were several thousand feet xbove the line of per- petnal snow. I said, they seemed to be crossing, all going in the same direction. Those on the Sierra Nevada, on the other hand, ap- peared to be flying about for their own pleasure, not going anywhere in particular. A North Dakota Monster.

One ofthe leading men of thatsection of the coun- try is Col. J. H. Ray. Now, however, he stands a g00d chance of becoming famous all over the civilized world, owing to a recent find of his, He is interested in the building of a railroad in Montana, and some time ago his men dug up in a gravel pit, near Glendive, a small Montana town, what’ the colonel believes to be a most valuable reiic of prebistoric times. “From its stricture the relic is sup; to have been the backbone of a biped fully sixty feet tall. A section of the vertebre of a human being six fect in height was laid beside it and each was found to be an exact counterpart of the other, with the exception that the relic was ten times the dimensions of the human back- bone. Col. Ray told me that the find had been examined by members of the Smithsonian In- stitution and Oberlin College and all agreed that the discovery of the relic was onv of the roost valuable of its kind ever made on the North American continent, The thing that bothers Col.
