York, Pa, Jan. 4-The supcrStitious
belief in the unlucky number thirteen
was somewhat dampened here yester-
day, when it became known that Just

men who celebrated the incoming of
Christmas day by a midnight supper
are still alive.

over the superstition attached to the
number.
One of the number, j. d. Miller, a
cigarmaker. is living in Iowa, and it
was intended that the supper should
be repeated, but on account of his not
being able to reach in time it was
abandoned until next year.
