comes off it will be the greatest ban quet
ever given IN this city.
The members of the Federal Club
wanted Charlie Laws to accept ano Their
term as President, but he could not be
prevailed on. His business, he declared,
required too much Of his time. &c Is
probable that E. w. Woolley will preside
during the next year. He is well quali-
fled 70 the position.
The mem bers of the Hudson Democratic
Society are rapidly becoming familiar
with their new quarters in the old HAr-
denburg homestead on Barrow street.
The managers of the society have several
schemes on hand for next winter, and the
indications are that the society will be
more popular than ever next season.

full scenery to be encountered IN voyage
over the gap.

There is nothing to come before the meet
ing but routine business, except the adoD-
ion of suitable resolutions concerning
the death of Alderman Schermernorn.

think he will go away this summer. He
is going 10 spend his vacation in the
Jersey City Athletic Clubs parlors study

be competent to lead his party in the
| Board of Aldermen and be able to COM

and Hoos in Parliamentary procedure.

| to join too, but Her5er5 says that he will
| wait until he Is appointed on the staff of
| the next Republican governor before he

will never learn TO ride.
| Now that summer IS coming on the
members of the Carteret Club are begin
ming to turn their attention TO the ques-
| ton of fixing up IN some shape their
| grounds between the club house and
| Bergen avenue The general impression
seems to be that the plot should be sodded
| and ornamented with flowers. Such a
course would beautify the club grounds
| materially.
Things looked very dark about the
! Palma club house the other night. So
| much so that several young ladies who
passed by wondered what the matter
could he. The trouble was that the boys
were all down at the Tabernacle to hear
| the Melopola sing.

| Carteret Club are up In st. Laurence
county bagging game by the wholesale.
