The intermittent talk about "a suici-
de club" is an echo of the sensation
which the late r. L. Stevenson created
when he wrote blood. curdling story of
club where all the members sat down
every night at a game of cards and
played for their own lives as stakes.
One man, and only one, drew each
night card which meant his voluntary
death before morning voluntary in the
sense that, according to the rules of the
club, he must submit nnresistinely to
be killed by the appointed executioners.
Perhaps no other story was exer con-
trived with equal skill in filling readers
minds With fascinating horror. 1t is
very likely that Stevensons gruesome
tale has led to more than one instance
where two or three miserable or mental
ly disordered people mutually agreed to
take their oSn lives. But there is no
good reason Jor supposing that there is
or ever was anywhere real suicide

That it is possible to have too good
an appetite seems 10 be one of the
morals of n story told by q friend to
the Washington correspondent of
the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
i am very fond of roasted ears of
corn, said he, and eat it when
ever ] can get it. Some time ago,
while was in restaurantin Texas,
the waiter put plaieful on the Ia
BILE and just helped myself.
When / had consumed the third,
| noticed that man across the Ia
BILE was cycling me most curiously.
| looked at him and told him that I
considered roasted corn one of the
most nutritious and palatable things
a man could eat. Then Ihelped my
self to fourth ear aud devoured ii
with relish.
When I reached my hand into the
dish-for the fifth, the fellow across
the table couldn't stand it any long.

ed the beer like a man who was tru-
ly penitent for his sin. I omitted to
say that my friend stated that the
only argument he could produce to
defend his extortiosate act was the
conviction, that il he had named 80
cts. as the price Of his whiskey per
gallon, his customer would have
thought it too common, and he would
have missed sale altogether. As
my reader viii very well understand,
it was not to be expected that three
friends chatting over a small table
would be content with two glasses
of beer each, So that genial, clever
Herbert was called on to give his
experience in paths that were dark
and ways that were devious. But
he denied, on the ground, that he
had been guilty of so many things
of which he was ashamed, he did not
like to discriminate, lest all the rest
should rise up and torment him unto
death. He would with great alacri-
ty join with Us in pious libations TO

soon three glasses of foaming beer
were before Us.

THE BISBEE / WOMAN'S CLUB HOLD THEIR FIRST MEETING IN THEIR HANDSOME CLUB
 BUILDING. An Interesting Session-An Essay on "Cur CIub"- Several Handsome Presents.

The Bisbee Woman's club held their first meeting yesterday in the new club building, recently completed on Quality hill, and all agree that it is beautiful. Since this is the first club building in the territory, they have reason to be proud of f. They are also proud of the fact that money is at hand to pay for the three dozen chairs already placed Gn the club build ing. The president congratulated the members on their great undertaking assuring them that many things would be accomplished during the ensuing year.
 An essay, Our Club was read by Mrs, Smallwood, which in part is as follows: There Is often a very vague notion among club women as to how and how Women's clubs ever came into existence. We accept our well developed organization without giving a. thought to the great struggle that must have been made at some past time to make so thorough an innova- ton possible, for an innovation most decided and startling the first Wo- mans club must have been.
 The first Womans club, "Sorosis, g was mot in the nature of a revolt, but was more like an awakening. The central idea carried with it nothing belhgerent; nothing antagonistic; nothing in the nature of demands or assertion. The cardinal principles were unity, fellowship. of one woman with another on platform of pro fessed ignorance, and sincere de sire to learn.
 Strong fears were expressed by many during the first years of Wom- en's clubs, that they would tend to separate families,-tha. the interests of the wife would be different from those of the husband. However, the years have proved that the influence of Women's clubs has been the form ing Of mixed clubs. where men anl women meet on equal terms, but have been the means of raising rhe stand ard of many mems clubs
 Tn a careful consideration of what might prove most useful to our own club. these four topics suggested them selves. CD The essential founda- tions of successful club. (2) How can club women become the best home makers. t3) The ideal for ourselves and our club. t4-) The position Of the club towards and in the town"
