 Then Marched Away.

The Soldiers Fired Volley at Him and
 Then Marched Away.
 A man who has attended his own ex- ecution and still survives to relate the details is surely worthy of a short para graph. The man in question, though at present serving in the humble capacity of waiter in one of the Paris cafes, was, twenty-one years ago, one of the his toric characters Of the world. His name is Colonel Marteras, and in 1869 he was on the point of being proclaimed President Of Uruguay, when he was ar rested, charged with treason, and sen fenced to be shot.
 On Monday, June 90, of that year, says the St. Louis Republic, he was taken by platoon of soldiers out of the capital to a cleared spot in the heart of a forest and bound to chair. At the word Fire" a nervous shock caused Marteras to fall to the ground. He did not hear the volley, but a laborer work ing near by did. The workman went to ascertain the cause, saw the soldiers marching away and Marteras badly wounded, but not dead by any means, lying on the ground. The laborer took the would-be president home and cured his wounds, and he and Marteras now often tell of the supposed execution of the ''French pretender."

CLIouEs IN CLUES.
Every Large Club Has Its Sets of Fellows
 Who Ride Hobbies.


 In every large club there are sets or cliques. Every other member naturally drifts into one of these sets very soon after he joins the club, says writer in the New York Sun. They may be de- fined in this way: First. there is the billiard set. Its members rarely visit any other part of the club than the billiard room, and every other member knows just where to find them. They are usually evening men, for the bill iardtablcs are not much used in the day time. Most of them are billiard ex- perts-gentlemen experts, of course and they can not tolerate the ordinary billiard player.
 Then there is the card set Not all the clubs allow card playing, but most of them do. In a good many of the clubs whist is nominally played, but actually all sorts of gambling games with cards are permitted. All the card players in the club gradually drift into this set. Of course, occasionally, men play a quiet game without becoming slaves to the habit, but these are not members of the card set, and their presence is not at all desirable to the latter.
 There are some men who have fallen into the habit of breakfasting at their clubs, and are never seen there at any other time. Others come only to lunch con. Their places of business are not remote from the clubhouse, and they drop over there for an hour in the mid dle of the day. Sometimes they bring friends along, and they always have a good time. This is pleasant set.
 The set containing the men who hang around the clubs in the daytime is a very peculiar one. Its members are either wealthy young fellows who think 1t beneath them to engage in any useful occupation, or men who prefer to do their work at night. The latter are few. These are the men who con- stantly occupy the club windows and gaze out upon the fashionable throng with superciliousness.
 A good many only see the club when they drop in on their way home to take a cocktail. They are family men, who go home to dine, and occupy their even- ings with social engagements or do mestic affairs. It is no unusual thing to see fifty men drop into club be- tween four thirty and six o'clock, just for the purpose of taking little champagne and bitters, or a less aris- tocratic cocktail. These men rarely stay more than half an hour. The read ing set contains q very desirable element of the club. Its members are quiet, gentlemanly fellows, who lend tone and dignity to the club and are always well informed
 The dinner set is not so well defined as the others. It includes men of all kinds, but there are particular men who come only then, and who are ex- perts in good living. These are always good fellows, and everybody is glad to know them. A man who dimes we'll must be a good fellow in his heart, and usually is an interesting one. too.

Stanley Tells a Curious Story About the
 Dwarfs and Their Poisoned Arrows.

Stanley Tells a Curious Story About the
 Dwarfs and Their Poisoned Arrows.
 When we first encountered the tribe who fought with poisoned arrows, writes Stanley in Scribner, we were not prepared to be greatly impressed with the danger, but we received severe lesson in August, 1887, during fight with the Avisibba savages. Young fel- lows, inspired by the example of Lieut. enant Stairs, R. E., rushed with brave homicidal intentions to the front, and the tiny arrows sailed in showers past them; but some of them found their intended billets, and were arrested quivering in arms and shoulders. With contemptuous smiles the young men drew them out and flung them away, and some continued answering the saw ages with rifle shots, while others sought the surgeon, bearing with them the arrows with which they had been wounded. When the days fight was over of course we had more leisure to examine the missiles, and our anxiety was great when we observed that they had been freshly smeared with brown, gummy-lille substance which emitted a subtle acrid odor, with suspicion of GsafRtida in it. The arrows seemed to have been plunged into Q pot contain ing a goodly quantity of a resinous sub- stance, and twirled around in it and well soaked and then lifted up in a bunch and covered with a banana or a piece of phrynium leaf. Quivers full of the arrows showed us that the weapons were considered by their owners to be dangerous, for those so smeared were tied together, head downward, and apart from the others.
 Yet the wounds made by these slender arrows were mere punctures, such as might have been made by fnely-pointed butchers skewers, and being exceed ingly ignorant of the effect we con- tented ourselves with swinging them with warm water and dressing them with bandages. In some instances af- fectionate men sucked their comrades wounds, to make sure that nothing of the substance should be left to irritate them. In no instance was this method of any avail. All who were wounded either died after terrible sufferings from tetanus, or developed such terrible gam grenous tumorS as to incapacitate them from duty for long periods or wreck their constitutions so completely by blood-poisoning that their lives became a burden to them.

A LIVING COFFIN.
An Incident That Marred the First Voyage
 of an Old Sailor Elan.

An Incident That AIarred the First Voyage
 of an Old Sailor Elan.
 'I made my first voyage in 1S50," said the mate of the Argenta at St. John, N B., one day last summer, as the New York Sun reports the story. ''I shipped in brig bound from here to Glasgow with deals and rough spars. I was almost a man grown and had served a year in sail loft, so that I could splice and cut and sew sails, but I shipped as ordinary seaman at ten shillingS a month less than the other seamen. The second night out it came on to blow and we were rousted out to take in sail. Before the wind was passed I was in my bunk in the fore castle-a house on deck, like the Ar genta's-sitting there, and on the other side was another man sitting there looking at me very hard. All at once he points his finger at me and says:
 You murdered me Wifer
 ''I says: You're liar! never saw your wife I was pretty fresh for a boy, you know, but he took me all aback, unexpected like, just as when the customs-house officer yesterday asked me where Greenland was.
 ''Well, there he sat, staring at me very sober, and pretty soon he points his finger at me again and says, solemn like:
 "'You murdered me wife
 "'You're bloomin' iar,' I says, again. I never saw your wife
 l,4 o11 lx1sr- going ashore to see a man he calls by name that used to live near St. John in those days, and turns to slowing his clothes in a bag, and we could see he was in the deliriums. He worked in a tc.riblc hurry, singing out to a man he said was outside in a dory waiting for him to hold fast minute and he'd make haste, and just then comes the mate and bawls for all hands to reef top sails, as was saying to you.
 ''That was my first night aloft, you know, and I never thought no more about his saving I'd murdered his wife till got back to my bunk, after turn ing two reefs in the topsails. Then I saw he was gone.
 Next morning the second mate calls to me when 1 came on deck.
 "'Do you want to see the coffin of the man what said you murdered his wife?' says he.
 "'Yes, sir, says I.
 "'Come aft here and look over the rail, then says he. So I went and looked, and there was shark about as biz as that yawl swimming along under the counter, waiting for another of us."
