BALLARD SOCIAL NEWS.
The Bachelors Club Entertained-The
Ladies' Relief Corns.

For long time nothing has been heard OF the
Old Bachelors Club, and the outside world con-
cluded that its existence had ceased with the
marriage of several of its prominent members.
A banquet. however, given by Mr. and Mrs.
William Curtiss to the old memD ers of the club
on Tuesday night, has renewed the interest and
spirits of the remaining members. The forlorn
knights OF buttoaless garments, tattered habili-
aments and perforated socks were royalty enter
tanned by their ost and hostess, and the coy
comfort and happiness OF Mr.. Curtiss. a former
vice president of the club, was enough to turn
the old bachelors green with envy.
Emotions OF this kind did not apparently dis
turb the complacency and cheerfulness OF the
bachelors, who moved about perfectly at no me,
and displayed upon their breasts bouquets OF
bachelors buttons, covering hearts very grateful
to the young lady who so thoughtfuliy
donated them. The banquet was given on ae-
count of the violation of one of the rules of the
eiuo that any member who leaves the club for
the purpose of matrimony must provide a sup
per. After the banquet the usual meeting of
the club was held. and three new members, P
a. Weaver, +. L. Yorke and E. A Aud were
initiated. The following were elected officers
for the ensuing year: Mr.. T. HOUSTON, presi-
dent; Nj. A. Mccullough, vice president; Mr.
e. B. Petersen, treasurer; Mr.. Louis watney,
secretary; Mr. +. L Yorks marshal; Mr.. E. A.
Aud, messengsr-in-chisf for conveying mess
ages, etc., to and from the Old Maids p I.
