seventeenth anniversary banquet anC
ball OF the German Casino at Cochran
hall this evening. This entertainment
Ike all previous ones given by the Ger
man Casino, will prove a great socia
enjoyment to the members of the clut
and their numerous guests. The Casino
is well versed in the art of delightful
hops, and gracefully skilled in the science
OF giving elegant banquets. We dare
say that their ball and banquet at Coch-
ran hall tonight will be one of the most
recherche affairs ever engaged in by any
social organization Of Memphis or other
cities in the Union.
