This implies that it was not found under a cabbage-leaf, nor was it brought home by the doctor.* It was one of the blessings of Anno Domini 1882; though the cause that led to its happy coming dates back two years more, to an afternoon with the lotos-eaters, when All was jollity, feasting, and mirth, light wantonness and laughter Piping and playing, minstrelsies and masking, Till care fled from us like an idle dream. On this occasion a serious suggestion was offered after the dinner — which was given, [* Edward Bedloe, 1224 Walnut Street. Hours 10 to 17.] iRJiL^wi— rwwv-n.. Wrs\5 .©.^ .©. 5i©d mm that "farewell" to one of the boys might have in it less of shadow and more of the substance of friendship, — a suggestion that as communion of heart and parley of soul were so seldom enjoyed, a club should be formed to break down the barriers of non-acquaintance and out of acceptable acquaintances make good friends. The suggestion received a double encore ; was adopted unanimously; placed in the care of a committee; and grew and grew until it was no longer a suggestion, but an accomplished fact. The Club thus inaugurated was a source (it profound satisfaction. It lasted a year, and then the Clover Club was started on a somewhat differing basis, with somewhat wider aims, and with a more earnest zeal. It was composed at its inception — as now — of Congenial spirits, each a self-formed chief, As great as any chief in club-life lore ; Born to extend her glory, all too brief, Beyond what Philadelphia knew before. The organization prospered from the hour of its birth. Since then two years have caught on to the scroll of history, and the name and fame of the Clover Club shine with a lustre that its most earnest supporters hardly hoped for. The era of good-fellowship, the cycle of friendship, is fervid, undimmed, unviolated still. fie eKriTLx^.

Nineteenth in direct succession to the lotos-eaters of the Odyssean land, it wears by hereditary right the four-leafed clover, to-day the nearest approach in American na- ture to the lotos-leaf. It is not needful here to trace the transfor- mation of the lotos-leaf into that of the clover. The main link in the long chain of delight is discovered in the imperial arms of the Mikado of Japan, which contain this representation of the lotos, — a fair outline of Pennsylvania clover mm \&7m :©: siv^ 51MJr3 were it grown for heraldry and not for fodder. The leaf additional to the common three which appears in the Clover arms denotes that advantage in life — a margin of five per cent. — enjoyed by the Clover fellows and denied to ordi- nary mortals. Beneath the clover-leaf are crossed quills. From time immemorial these have been better than swords as weapons of fence ; hence their adoption by that profession which made the Clover Club a necessity and a possibility. The quills are well-pointed and well-feathered, that 51^f3 16 the points may be more deftly made. For in clover Sense is the helmet ; wit is but the plume : The plume exposes ; 'tis the helmet saves. The quills were obtained, after long and direct intercession with the gods,* from the restless, purple wings of Pegasus. Above the clover-leaf is a gridiron, — a symbolical instrument unknown to the lotos- eaters, those broilers beneath that sun Whose flaming hair Did every day gild either hemisphere — and who were denied the morceaux that made famous the Beefsteak Club, and which are * Committee on Intercession: B.

The gridiron is of silver: no base metal could be trusted to keep the palate pure. Round the emblems, fashioned in court- eous shape, is the cordon bleu, that since the days of the Count d'Olonne and the Knights of St. Esprit has stood the sign-manual of good cookery. It was adopted by the Clover Club in order to perpetuate its greatest beau- ties and illustrate its rarest virtues. Above the cordon bleu stands the tripod, the chaffing- dish of the original lotos-eaters, and within it a touch of Promethian fire. Two inscriptions complete the arms. That Pjl-Mfri] SUP :©: mm over the tripod — A votrc Saute — is the war-cry of an honest table, significant of the unforced hospitality of the Clover board. That beneath the ribbon — To-day deep thoughts with me resolve to drench in mirth, Which after no repenting draws a glorious invitation to the funeral of care — is from Milton's " Paradise Regained," and adds further testimony to the poet's power of divination. He foresaw its application. To- gether, the inscriptions teach the whole lesson of the clover-blossom, as propagated by the Clover Club,* Whose gentle fragrance was not made For halls of woe. * Committee on Propagation, the officers, ex officio, and all active members. 51BIS mm 51ME eiMim mm 5iMim \mm 19 fie Men. THE Clover Club takes its animating in- fluence from journalists. Though they constitute but half of the Club, they were its founders, and remain to-day its most earnest promoters. It is more necessary to their ex- istence, to the life they lead, to lighten the drudgery of their paper chains, than to the career of their fellow-Cloverites, who furnish such shining ornaments to the bench, the bar, and the banking-house. The Club has for officers a president, a vice-president, a secretary and treasurer, and nii an executive committee of two members, in addition to the officers just named. These gentlemen are elected at the will of the Club, and hold office under the same sweet permis- sion. Since the organization the officers have remained unchanged, with the exception of short period of 1882, when Mr. E. J. Swartz held the office of secretary. The officers are, therefore: — President, Moses Purnell Handy. Vice-President^ William Ralston Balch. Secretary and Treasurer, Chas. Ridgway Deacon. I'lxecutive Co/nmittee, the above, and Thomas M. Jackson, Thomas Potter, Jr. siMim 24 & ■ ton* POWDER JOHH JUNKE« jS siMe The president is a tall, well-mannered man, with blonde whiskers, and a coronal of locks that become him like "the orb that ushers in the day." He is a Southerner, and during the late unpleasantness gathered such clover-buds as blossomed beneath the Con- federate flag. Since the war he has taken a star course in journalism, and at present guides the destinies of The Philadelphia Press from the poop-deck of that venerable craft. His duties at the Clover Club consist mainly in a constant — sometimes frantic, yet always successful — effort to restore order out of chaos, and reduce Bedloe to submission. He Qjjysvlif] m 25 presides with virility, promptness, and is altogether a man of savoir [aire. He is the inventor of the popular phrase, " We have with ns this evening." The vice-president is charged with steady- ing the procession at the taggle end of the line, and of maintaining as much silence as is possible to hotel waiters when eloquence demands a hearing. If the president is absent the vice-president assumes the gavel, borrows tlu' president's chair, and sets up for himself. In appearance the vice-president — a spectacled fellow — is above the medium height, and sports a beard. He inclines to verse, and is, cnWfrn :©: Cil.W.fr3 26 on occasions, a haberdasher to the muses, a pot poet. For Poet and pot differ but in a letter, Which makes the poet love the pot the better. The secretary and treasurer is the Club jewel. Upon his shoulders come the money cares, the letter-writing, and all the exertion necessary to a successful club existence. He keeps the accounts and the worries, issues the notices, keeps his temper when no answers are sent, records the history, and in general super- vises the life of the Club. He is one of the good things of this world that are done up in small bundles. The two Toms, both royal-blooded fel- :@: siMis mm sillia 27 lows, make up the list of officers. One is large and stout, the other stout and small. They both are workers for the Club's good, which they have done much to foster since the becinninsr. The first mentioned is a leader of the Club commentators. These five form the executive committee, which has general charge of the Club's wel- fare. The committee meets once a month — in spirit — and maps out the coming work. In session they are seen as opposite. To their care is committed the selection of names to be balloted for whenever a vacancy occurs in the magic circle of the Club membership. z H o X The arduous, wearying work of this commit- tee, however, is not so often performed in full regalia as indicated in the illustration. Whenever it is not possible to assemble the committee, the duties are entrusted to another, and a session is held as suggested in the picture, which tells A tale as clear And bright as if it was decanted. The further work of the Club, and the most important next to that performed by the executive committee, is entrusted to the dinner committee, three members appointed each month by the president. These gentle- men assemble at the Hotel Bellevue, talk the 5\MM w^m :©: mm gnMfTn Col. F. A. Burr, J. L. Carncross, C. R. Deacon, Secretary and Treasurer. Thos. Donaldson, Judge Thos. R. Elcock, M.

By the time it was a month old it had twice demonstrated one of the prime purposes of its existence. It was started to entertain, and it has never departed from so wise a course. Time has proved hospitality to be a bonne of the rarest order. Blest be that spot, where cheerful guests retire To pause from toil, and trim their evening fire; Blest that rare board that has no seat for care, Vet every stranger finds a ready chair. Blest be those feasts with joyous plenty crown'd, Where all the Clover family around Laugh at the jests or pranks that never fail, Or join th' applause that greets the well-told tale, Or press the honored stranger to his food, And learn the luxury of doing good. ?*i -i— J— i— r "^ M i M r ."rx**? cn.v^rni The right hand of good-fellowship has in the two years of the Club's existence been extended to the following blossoms from other fields than ours :- G< o.

In the career upon which it entered, custom in its literal sense That takes from us the privilege To be ourselves was discarded, and no rules adopted that savored of formality or foolishness. The membership was limited to thirty active, ten non-resident, and ten honorary members. Guests were limited to two invited by the Club, and about ten invited by the members at members' expense. These limitations were SPSS wisely designed in order that no unwieldiness should be a result of popularity, and at no dinner should the Club be so large as to prevent a conversation from being general. The dinner committee is always interdicted from ordering an expensive dinner; and as members pay for their own wines, the Club- life does not mean to the un weal thy members absolute discomfort, as so often is apt to be the case. The Club dines every fourth Thursday of the year, with the exception of the Thurs- days that fall in July and August, at five o'clock in the afternoon, and at the Hotel Bellevue. This is often enough, the hour is convenient, and the place is unsurpassed. The Club has no other organization than that neces- sary for good-fellowship and hospitality. At the monthly dinners the Club gathers about a table cunningly fashioned in the shape of a four-leaf clover, and after the oysters the president, standing, drinks the health of " Our Guests" in the loving cup, — a cup of beaten silver inwrought with golden clover-leaves, and adorned with the symbolic arms of the Club, and its motto, — While we live, we live in Clover ; When we die, we die all over.

The forlorn three-leaved fel- lows of the world beyond began to wish, to worry, and to wait for the opening of the doors. Vacancies were few and far between. Only occasionally was there a prize to be had. Though the Club rule, that absence from three dinners without an excuse, worked a resigna- tion, nobody resigned in this way; the mellow light of the Club champagne tinting the clover- 15 M mm mm mm S\MM 57 :©: buds was too potent to be overthrown by any counter charm.
