The Jefferson Club Growing in
Strength and Wisdom.
The Jefferson Democratic club, in
spite of insinuations of the Republican
papers that internal dissension is likely
to cause it's early demise, seems to be
gathering strength daily, and the sew
eral committees to whom the work of
organization has been intrusted
appear to have been able to dis
pose of whatever element of diScOrd
that has given any indication of its eX-
istence. The committee appointed to
prepare bylaws and arrange certain
other preliminary work met at the Office
of j. w. Lawrence y esterday morning,
and in the evening the club held meet
ing at the old K. of P. hall, corner of
Washington and Fourth avenues south.
Reporters were excluded as before. and
the statements given out by certain
members to representatives of
the press, which have been
source OF considerable annoyance,
were roundly condemned, and the ne
cessity of keeping the business of the
club secret so as not to furnish ground
work for newspaper gossip and sensa-
tons, was so strongly impressed that
all members were as dumb as oysters
after the meeting. 1t is understood
that the election of p. B. Winston was
not altogether satisfactory, owing to his
absence from the city, but no action was
taken toward a change.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

Hale and hearty, rich and handsome,
Such a gallant set of men
Never will at one time gather,
Till the same comes here again.
Dusty millers some do call them,
But the dust is of that rank
That is used to purchase sundries,
And is piled up in the bank.
They will feast and speak and junket,
Take a trip about the lake,
Tell of how their make of flour
Is the one to make the cake.
They're not like the dusty millers
That once lived in days gone by,
For, instead of grinding flour,
They all live exceeding high.
No white suits they don at morning,
White dust on their clothes don't lay;
They have found better plan to
Make the milling business pay.

brIer county, w. Va, was probably
one OF the most eccentric charac-
ters ever known in the State. For
many years he had kept a store
at Williamsburg, and had amassed
quite a fortune. At his death
over $4,000 in cash was found IN
his house, besides which he owned
several valuable tracts of land,
which would make his total fortune
about $75,000. For many years
he exhibited his pecullarities in
many ways, one being IN refusing
to conform the prices of his goods
to modern prices. His shelves
we're loaded with dusty, molding
and cobweb.covered goods, for
which he demanded the wartime
prices, holding calicoes at 40 to so
cents a yard, stogies at 10 cents
each, etc. de lived entirely apart

permit no interference In his way
OF doing business. He left sever
