The Richmond German.

The Christmas german given by the
Richmond German Club at Armory
Hall last Monday night was by far the
largest and finest ever given in Rich
mond. Saenger Hall could not accom-
modate the crowd, so the Executive
Committee decided to get the Armory
and have the supper spread in Ssenger
Hall, which was accessible from the
Armory by the bridge erected for the
inaugural ball, which connected the two
buildings. The supper, which was
served for about eighty couples, was
gotten up in elegant style, with the ta-
bles nicely decorated, and was served
in courses, with wine in abundance.
Besides the members of the club many
oftheir friends were present-some from
Norfolk, some from Baltimore, and
other places. Quite number Of ladies
visiting friends in Richmond were pres
ent, having remained over after the ball
for the occasion. The Executive Com
mittee, composed Of MesSrs. Corbln
Warwick, W. Fred. Peasants, Thomas
Y. Carter, Thomas n. Page, and Charles
E. Wortham. Jr., deserve much credit
for so fine an entertainment, and have
received the thanks Of all present for an
evening so pleasantly spent.
