The Last Mans Club.

The death of Robert Riddle, of No.
1887 Hanover street, on Sunday, leaves
bat four survivors of the original Last
Mans Club, of this city, which was Or
ganized with fifteen mem bers thirty
years ago. Mr.. Riddle was the presi-
dent of the club, which was organized
by the following members of old Wig
liant Fire Company: James Galloway,
John Galloway, William Riddle, Robert
Riddle, w. Y. Owens, w. Kucher, Will
liam Wilkison, Anthony White, w. c..
Fry, James Hennessey, Theodore Will
son, John II. Mcllwain, George X. Nc
llwain, John Roy, and Theodore Adams,
the last four being the only survivors.
1t was agreed when the club was or
ganized that on the I'd of January of each
year the members should all attend a
supper, and that regular organization
all the members, the last survivor to take
the club effects to his home as a me-
mento. Through thirty years this agree
ment has been kept. At each supper
plates were laid for all of the dead
members, and each was toasted in turn.
On Jan. 2, 1882, there were eleven
empty chairs at the table. Mr.. Riddle,
who has just died, presided, and wager
was made that he would, as had all of
the other presidents of the club, die
before the other members. A president
will have to be elected on Jan. next.
In view of the fate of the presidents of
the club, candidates for the position are
backward about announcing themselves.

Why He Didn't Explain.

Some eight or ten years ago a silvery-
tongued chap who claimed to be a fruit
tree agent swindled the farmers of this
county in shameful manner, and one
resident of Nankin was SO mad about it
that he came to Detroit, searched the
rascal out. and gave him pounding on
the street. After he got through his
work he told the fellow that he would
lick him twice as bad if he ever put ewes
on him again, and it was threat to be
remembered and nursed. About three
weeks ago the Nankin man was travel
Ing in Washtenaw County, and as he
lourneyed along the highway he met a
traveller who SO closely resembled the
fruit-tree swindler that he halted, and
called out:
Here you are again, you bold-faced
rascalr'
"Yes, I'm here" was the calm re-
"Well, so m ], and I'm going to lick
you until you can't holler! said I'd
do it, and I always keep my word.
Climb down here'
The stranger ''clumb" without pro-
test, shedding his coat as he struck the
ground, and fight began. In about
two minutes he bad used up the farmer
and was coolly replacing his coat.
"See here" said the man from Nan
kin, as he wiped his nose with bur-
dock, ''you fight better than you did
eight years ago"
Well. dunno. This is my first af-
fair with you"
Didn't wallop you in front of the
Detroit Post-office eight wears ago?'
"No, sir! I was in Australia up to a
year ago"
"And you never saw me beforeP''
Never"
"And was never in Nankin?"
"Never!n
"Well, I'll be hanged! Come to look
at you | can see that you are not the
man! Why on earth didn' you explain,
or ask me toP You must have thought
me mistaken"
"Oh, YES, knew you were mistaken;
but had just discovered that /, had
driven seven miles on the wrong road
and was wishing some one would come
along and give me two words of sass.
