ors on the morning newspapers, com
and, In fact, men from various call
ings, who make the ‘Castle’ their
home. This bunch is known as the
*Thirty Club,’ and. while It is an un
chartered organization, it meels here
at midnight to while away
three hours. Come down to night
gir. and 1 shall be glad wo make you
acquainted.”
Mr. White came down about baif-
Past 12. As the prospective member
stepped from the elevator Hale met
bim and ushered him forward as be
said:
“Gentlemen of the Thirty Club, al-
