Queer WhecInlen.

Several members of the Queer Wheelmen
rode out to Cabin John bridge last Sunday,
though as a club no run was taken. To-
morrow run has been scheduled fol Great
Falls. with Dickey's the objective point.
The invitations to the first dance of the
club, which will be held Wednesday even
ing December 4, at National Rifles arm
ory, have made their appearance, and their
uniqueness has occasioned general COM
ment.
The decoration committee, of which Mr..
l.. O. Slack was appointed chairman. was
announced during the week, and consists of
Messrs. William H. Henshaw, Robert P.
Slokey. w. R. Larrimore, H. r. Dawley,
r l.. Nost, John Woerner and George f.
BOYD. In addition to this committee, as
slstance will be rendered by every member
OF the club. The hall will be prettily deco
rated on the occasion, and Schroeder's or
chestra, seated on the stage, will be screen
ed by wall of palm s and tropical plants.
MIR. Frank Ghiselli of the Queer Wheel
men. who was injured at the meet of
the Washington Road Club, October 10, has
entirely recovered from the effects of his
fall.

"GOOd-Bye.o

Good bye, goodbye, 1t is the sweetest blessing
That falls from mortal lips on mortal ear,
The weakness of human Love confessng,
The promise that love more strong Is near
May God be with you.
Why do we say 1t when the tears are starting :?
Why mist a VOID sweet bring only pain!
Our love seems all sufficient till the parting
And then feel it impVtent an1 vain
May God be with you!
Better than earthly presence cen the dearest,
Is the great blessing that our paintings bring;
For in the loneliest moments God Is pcarest,
And from sorrows heavenly comforts spring.
If God he with you.
Goodbye. -ool-hye, with lates. breath We say 1t,
A legacy of hope, ard fairh, and love:
Parting must come. carnot long delay 1t,
But, in Him. we hope TO meet above,
Ii God he with
Good-hyr-'tis all have for one another
our love more strong than death is helpless still,
For take the burden from his brother
Or shield, except by prayer, from any ill
May God be with you,

Mr.. Irwin Williamson, the president of the
Capital Bi. Club, who has been confined to
bis room since August 49, suffering with an
abse ess. is rapidly recovering, and will soon
be out again.
DR.. w. D. Writ of the same club, and
chairman Of the amusement committee, is in
Atlanta, Ca, taking in the sights of the
cotton states exposition.
The run of the Capital Bi. Club last Sun
day was scheduled for Marlboro but on ac-
count of the rains of the previous days the
reads were thought to be in too bad cond-
ton foc cycling, and the run was changed to
Great Falls, the condition Of the Conduit
read being judged to be ridable. Six mem
bers went up, and on the return were met by
a number of other club members, the entire
aggregation being caught in the rain. If the
weather of tomorrow permits the Marlboro
ride VIII in all probability be taken.
Mr.. Franklin Janus and his wife gave a
pleasant dinner last evening at their pretty
residence, Do New Jersey avenue, to the
riding members of the Capital Bi. Club,
among the ranks Of which Mr. Janus is a
prominent member.
The first smoker of the club was given
at the club house last Saturday night, and
proved to be great success rejecting much
credit upon the new amusement committee.
which got the affair up In quick time. The
attendance was limited to the club members,
and an evening Of solid enjoyment was
spent. The feature-and at the same time
the most amusing part-of the program was
the singing, dancing and humorous selec-
lions of a quartet of darkes, who were
struggled in for the occasion.
Capt. j. Bartlett Hills has just completed
a little summary of the read riding of the
club, which begins with April and runs up
to October 81 During this time there were
twenty-seven club runs, representing forty
five days on the road. The total distance
covered in that time is 2,121 miles, which
makes an average of over forty-seven miles
for every day spent on the public highways.
The total distance is almost equal to a trans
continental trip.
This is perhaps the best showing that can
be made by any club in the country, and If
the individual rides of other members were
added to the club total, the mileage would be
about doubled Among the club runs are
several tours, one Of which extended for
two weeks, while there are several others
which lasted for three and four days or
more.

instances birds common to this section are
closely related to some very remarkable
birds of foreign countries.
One of the most interesting facts about
birds OF this locality is that the largest bird
in North America is among them, as is also
the very smallest, namely, the bald eagle
end the humming bird. The writer knows of
three nests of the bird of freedom, all within
rifle shot of Mount Vernon-two on the same
side of the river, and one within sight of
Marshall Hall. The one represented by the
illustration is within plain sight from the
road leading west from the lodge gate at
Mount Vernon, and is within a quarter of a
mile of that place. 1t is an immense struc-
ture, as can be seen from comparison with
the man seated in it, and who is holding
aloft enc of a set of two eggs that now
adorns a collection gradually forming to
show the local Zoology.
The nest itself measures about six feet in
dia meter. and nearly fifteen in circumfer-
ence, and is built of sticks and branches,
many of them of size almost beyond belief.
1t has been used for years, the birds adding
to Its bulk each year as portions dropped
away.
A Delicate Structure.
To pass from this massive structure to the
dainty domicile of the humming bird seems
almost like descending from the sublime to
the ridiculous yet can assure you there is
nothing whatever ridiculous about this
beautiful nest, for beautiful it certainly is.
Imagine if you can, little ball of vegetable
and caterpillar downs, and spiderwebs about
the size of good hickory nut, near the ex-
tremity of a small branch, and SO deftly
plastered all over with lichens as to appear
even upon close scrutiny to be merely a
knot on the branch-and you have the nest
of the smallest bird in America. There
seemed to be something quite unique in find
ing a nest of this bird within sight of that of
the bird of liberty, and both so near the
home of the father of his country. The
humming bird is an abundant breeder in the
District.

Unchaperoned Women in Paris

the summer yellow bird taken by the
writer some years since. 1t illustrates an
only too frequent tragedy in bird life. Most
of are acquainted with that parasite
among BIRDS the COW bird, or COW bunting.
This bird never builds a nest of its own
but seeks the nest of some other and gener-
ally smaller bird than itself in which its
eggs are deposited. The various species
that are thus imposed upon are too numer-
Gus to mention here. but our little summer
warbler or yellow bird is, perhaps, most
freque htly a victim. In many instances
the fraud seems not to be discovered, but
in one instance it was discovered each time,
and the bird displayed small amount of
thought in attempting to crcumvent the
intrUGers. Careful separation of the three
nests showed the lower one to contain two
eggs of the yellow bird and one of the cow
bird; the second story contained three of
the Cowbird ana two of the rightful owner,
while the third and last attempt at a home
held two eggs of the interlope: and none
of the persevering little fellows, who had
given it up a bad job and gone else
where.

The Minister Pictured.

Like most of the Latin race, he is small
of stature, and. unlike the generality OF
that race, is entirely free from impetuos-
ity and nervousness of manner. The most
phlegmatic Englishman might learn quiet
and reserve from him. There is not the
suggestion of aggresslveness about him.
Possessing a remarkable power of secre-
liveness, there is no appearance of cunning
either in his speech or in the expression of
his countenance He is slow and deliberate
in speech almost to the point of reluctance,
and has a low. gentle voice, somewhat
deferential, but dignified in tone.
