A GRAND CLUB HOUSE.

Opening of the Algonquin in Boston.
 BOSTON, Nov. 9.-The opening last night of the new house of the Algonquin club on Commonwealth avenue was 8 pronounced success. Few among the recipients of the 2, 800 invitations issued failed to embrace the opportunity of visiting a club house known to be the grandest in the country and which is believed to be without superior in the world. At least 2,000 gentlemen must have entered it's portals last evening. Yet so numerous and so spacious are it's rooms that this little army did not uncomfortably crowd the palatial structure.
 The menu comprised all the delicacies of the season and the guests left the grooming boards with only words of praise. Baldwin's Cadet orchestra and the Temple quartette furnished the evenings music.
 Among the ut-of-town clubs represented were the New York of New York, the Gum berland of Portland and the Calumet of Providence. Letters of acknowledgement of invitations were received from the Harvard, the Lotos and the Merchants' clubs of New York, the Army and Navy of Washington and the Utica (N.Y.) club.

A Careful Estimate Places she Repub-
 ncan Majority at From Seventeen to
 Twenty.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-"I believe that we will have from IT to 20 majority in the next House." said Secretary MoPherson of the Republican congressional campaign commit tee to-day. Taking up a table printed in New York Republican paper he said: "I am going to give the Democrats all that they claim within reason where the actual returns have not removed all doubt" From this table he reduced the Republican claims for congressman by one each in Florida, Ken- lucky, Maryland, North Carolina and West Virginia and by two in Virginia. In that shape he declared that he allowed all Demo- cratic claims in doubtful cases and the result was 6 Republican majority of 15. He could not see how it could possibly be reduced be- low that figure and allowing for the Repubh- can chances in doubtful districts as in Vir- ginia, Maryland, West Virginia, North Caro- lima and elsewhere he confidently expected that the Republican majority would be found to be nearer twenty than fifteen.

RAlLROADING A GAS BILL.

The Company Illustrates Itself in Trying
 to Prevent it's Passage.
 ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 2.-The bill regu- lating the price of gas in Baltimore city at $1. 25 per 1000 feet has met with the most violent opposition from the gas companies ever since it was first introduced in the legis- lature. It had passed the house, and Satur- day was on the third reading file and would have come up for final passage that afternoon. At 2:30 it was discovered that the bill had been abstracted from the file, and thorough search of the state house from top to bottom failed to find it. There was @ general howl of indignation and members formerly opposed to the measure swore that they would now vote for it.
 Governor Jackson came over to the capitol building, and suggested that new bill be framed immediately. This was done, and all other business was postponed, so that the new gas bill might have precedence. The rules were suspended, and it was read first time at 3:3O p. m At 8 p. m. it had passed it's third reading, and was sent to the house, where the same precedence was given it. At Il p. m. the bill had finally passed the house, and the governor, who all the while watched its progress, immediately signed it, and it became a law.
 This is case of legislative railroading without parallel in this state and, perhaps, in the country.

A Gypsy Band from Russia.

One result of Lord Rando1ph's visit to Rus sia, may be the advent ill this country of the famous gypsy band which is known by the name of it's leader and conductor, Nikolai Shishkin. This Bohemian band has long been one of the chief musical sensations of the St. Petersburg season, and Lord Randolph had several chances of hearing it play during his visit. He first heard it at the French ambas- sador's ball, and was so struck by the unique character of both performers and music that his curiosity was aroused. He sought and gained an introduction to Nikolai Shishkin himself, and took subsequently, the greatest interest in him and his band. The most curi- ous feature of this gypsy band is the presence in it of a number of female gypsies, some of whom are typical beauties. The more hand some of these musical gypsy damsels make excellent marriage ges.-London Figaro
