MANY EPISCOPAL CLUBS.
Plans to Organize Several New Ones
Under Way.

The organization of mems clubs in the
various parishes of the Episcopal churches
in the diocese of Washington, is becoming
general. Tomorrow night the men of
Trinity Church, corner Third and Streets
northwest, Will meet and organize, with
sixty or more members. The object of the
club is Of a social character.
Thursday night, the 18th instant a mems
club will be formed at the Pro-Cathedral
of St. Mark, corner Third and A Streets
southeast. The membership of this club
will be very large as the male members Of
the church are very enthusiastic over the
project.
A feature of this organization is the
unique way in which every man in attend
ance at the meetings will be required to
get acquainted with his fellow-members.
By resolution adopted at the meeting re-
Gently held for the purpose of organizing
the club, il was made an ironclad rule that
at adjournment of each meeting every man
is required TO shake hands with fellow
members. Great amusement is the result
and the experience found at trial Of the
rule Immediately caused its adoption.
Other clubs will no doubt be formed
later on. In the future 1t is likely that
the clubs will exchange visits and further,
that arrangements be made for holding a
semi-yearly or yearly meeting Of all the
clubs.

an hour Mrs. Ladew got tired of sitting
in a police station. so she went nome

He was born In Vienna, Austria,
March 30th, 1851 While he was still

that time until after the Civil War,
his career was Of a very varied charac-
ter. His father, who was cousin of

He was the supreme political power in
the Eighth assembly district for many
years. When Mr.. Smith established
his saloon, on Essex street, 12 years

OBSCURE MARTYRS.
Edwin Arnold.

They have no place in storied page,
Nor rest in marble shrine;
They are past and gone with cherished
age,
They died and made no sign.
But work that shall find its wages vet,
And deeds that their God did not forget,
Done for their love divine
These were the mourners and these shail be
The crowns of their immortality.
oh, seek them not where sleep the dead,
We shall not find their trace;
No craven stone is at their head,
No green grass hides their face;
But sad and unseen in their silent grave
1t may be the sand of deep sea wave,
Or a lonely desert place;
For they need no prayers and no mourning
bell
They were tombed in true hearts that knew
them well.
They healed sick hearts till theirs were
broken,
And dried sad eyes till theirs lost sight;
We shall know at last by a certain token
How they fought and fell in the fight.
Salt tears of sorrow unbeheld
Passionate cries unchronicled
And silent strifes for the right
Angels shall court them and earth shall
sigh
That she left her best children to battle and
die
