oLlQUEs IN CLUBS.
Every Large Club Has Its sets Of Fellows
Who Ridc Hobbies.

Who Ridc 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
lardtables are not much used in the day
time. Most of them are billiard ex-
perts-gentlenen 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 n 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 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 arc not
remote from the clubhouse, and they
drop over there for an hour in the mid
die OF the day. Sometimes they bring
friends along, and they always have q
good time. This is pleasant set.
The set containing the men who hang
around the clubs in the daytime is a
very peculiar one. It's members are
either wealthy young fellows who
think it 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 superciliousncss.
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
rncstic affairs. 1t is no unusual thing
to see fifty men drop into club be-
tween four thirty and six o'clock, just
1or the purpose of taking q little
champagne and bitters, or a less aris-
tocratic cocktail. These men rarely
stay more than half an hour. The read
ing set contains avery desirable element
OF the club. Its members are quiet.
gentlcmanly fellows, who lend tono and
dignity to the club and are always we'll
informed.
The dinner set Ks not so we'll defined
as the others. 1t 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 good fellow in his heart, and
usually is an interesting one, too.

Stanley Tells q 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 fell
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
quivcring 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 thew

gummy-like substance which emitted a
subtle acrid odor, with suspicion of
asaf1tida in it. The arrows seemed to
have been plunged into pot contain
ing goodly quantity of a resinous sub
stance, and twirled around In 1t and
we'll soaked and then lifted up in a
bunch and covered with r. banana or n
piece of phrynium leaf. Quivers full of
the arrows showed us that the weapons
We're 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 irritatc
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 gan
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.

George F. Edmunds, of Vermont. And

he has been leader among men; a
prominent and imposing figure in the
halls Of the highest law making power on
EARTH.
There seems to have been no special
reason for his resignation, simply that he
was tired of political life and wants i'm
munity from its cares, its depressions and
its rankings. Yet while having his full
share of these annoyances he has in a
large measure enjoyed its triumphs. Not
always just has been Mr.. Edmunds, but
we believe he has always been thoroughly
honest. One OF his strong characteristics
is to stick to thing with bulldog tenacity
when once his mind is made up. The
west has felt the influence of this or
mere than one occasion, and it is possibly
true that he is not popular among western
men generally; yet nevertheless, all must
acknowledge his genius, admit his sin.

to those principles of good government
which constitute the groundwork of Amer
