IL stands without reason that the Thirteeners will be interested enough to read what their fellow clbmen are doing, but this is for those who really haven't a clear insight into the club, which has attained such popularity, and has fought so strongly against Su- perStition. In a recent number of the Los Angeles Examiner there was a description of a new Thirteen Club house to be built in Brooklyn by the members of that club. The contract has been let for a "one story brick, coffin shaped building, with thirteen coffin shaped windows, and doorway of the same style, ornamented with a skull and cross bones." The door at the main entrance will have a coffin on the panel. and above will be the inscription, XIII CLUB" and up fur ther will be the motto of the club, "Morturi te Salutamus." The windows, which number four in front, will have the words Superstition. Ignorance, Pre- judice and Bigotry above them, these being the four things which the club so ardently combats. But what is the most interesting feature of all is the site of the building. It is to occupy  copal church once stood but which had been boarded up since an acident to l-e church. In this accident thir- teen persons were killed and a num- Der wounded, and as one might natur- ally suppose, the colored people were greatly superstitious of the place and provided another place of worship.

The study of man is always inter
Getting. ! must admit that men and
women and boys and girls are much
more attractive to me than are trees,
water and land. 1t is the human be
ing that I delight in. Therefore my
recent trip across the Blue Ridge
Mountains was all the more delight
full because I saw many persons of
many minds.
There arc three classes Of leborers
at work on the South and Western
Railroad between Marion and Spruce
pine. The native, a typical nioun-
tainecr, of the better type; the negro,
who went there from this section, and
tho Italian, an importation from the
North.
The North Carolina mountaineer is
unique character. He is as inter.
esting as the day is long. He does
not know what fear is and il he likes
you he is hospitable and kind in his
way. He has very little, if any, rev.
erenoe for God, and less for his fellow
man. OF course this is not true of all
Of them, but, generally speaking, it is.
The boys curse and swear like troop.
ers, but, withal, they are good natured
and charitable to those they like. AS
I rode by squad Of one hundred or
more men, native boys, at work on a
dirt road I looked at various individ.
uals and saw bright lustre in almost
evory eye. The mountaineer has
plenty Of native wit and genuine
ability; many Of them are illiterate,
but never ignorant. He knows the
ways Of nature-of the mountains,
the trees, the rivors and the like.
He is product Of the soil.
After passing the workmen in the
road I came upon number Of teams
on their way to one Of the camps with
lot Of lumber: There were two,
four and six mules to q wagon, aud
young mountaineers did the driving.
I never saw finer stock than those
great, strong mules that made up
those teams. The drivers rode tho
saddle mule, as in the olden days,
anu directed the course Of the wagon
through the lead mule, who wore
guide line at his left cheek and gee.
stick at his right shoulder. There
were no cow tails, or red ribbons tied
about the brides for decorations,
bit the teame @ere yell ha.nessed
and fat.
As Mr.. Trent and myself rode on,
watching the men with the picks snd
shovels, and the on-ooming teams, q
q fierce, sharp CRY burst upon US;
driver far down the line was urging
his team to do it's utmost ju . boggy
place in the road. Clear aud sharp
came the words: "Get up there,
Mike, you id rascal. Git out of
herei"
As we passed I took crack at the
fellow who had stopped to let the
mules blow. I said: "Youpg fellow,
you ought not to swear so loud when
preachers are passing"

way and secured the services of Will
liam Reid, simple minded youth,
to direct him the right way.
Mr. Dawes took the boy in his
carriage, and as they were passing
an extensive pasture the senator re-
marked that was "a fine lot of spear
grass"
''rhat's Herds grass" remarked
the boy.
Vainly the senator tried to ex-
plain that the boy was wrong and
finally made a bet of $40 to a cent
that he (11r. Dawes) was right and
referred the matter to Andrew E.
Wells, an cid farmer, who knew Mr..
Dawes by sight. ...

in the boys favor. -"Why, that is

Herd" So MIR. Dawes admitted
that the joke was on him.-Boston
