The hop at the Wheeling Club Mon
day night was largely attended. Among
those present were many OF the charm
ing visitors now in town, and their pres
ence rendered it more interesting and
enliyening. Music was furnished by
Killmyer, and as II was the last date
available, sll took occasion TO embrace
the opportunity. 1t was one OF the most
successful Of the many Wheeling Clue
hops.
There was joyous surprise party

Der of guests participated, and all were
handsomely entertained by the host.

The Monday Night Euchre Club met
last week at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs.
+. II. LANCE, on Fourteenth street. 1t
was a most enjoyable session.
Card parties have been the popular
diversion during the season, and while
the hostess arranges her rooms and
tables for euchre or whist or cinch, she
secretly wishes for q little variety.
There is one on its way now, and already
ladies i'm the East are sending out their
invitations for progressive cards"
That will embrace in one evening the
four favorite games, whist, euchre,
ciuch and hearts, and tables and cards
are arranged accordingly. Whist &C.
cupies the head table, and one hand
played out regulates the games at the
others, the number OF table being OPP
tlonal. This certainly promises variety
and has "taken" well. II also has the
advantage OF keeping the players posted
on the different games. BY the way,
cinch, popular as as it is, is not yet fully
comprehended, and few directions for
the uninitiated, will open up new
pleasures to the card lover, for there is
a fascination about cinch few can re-
sist. In double cinch, or the four
handed game with partners, nine cards
are dealt each player, who then bid In
turn for trumps, each bidding what he
thinks be can make with his partners
help. The lead goes to the highest bid
der, who must make as much as he Of
fered or be put back that many points.
Each side scores what points it makes.
The game is usually AZ points, and IA
points make a hand. In beginning, all
but trump are discarded, and enough
cards are drawn from the deck to give
q hand of six. The dealer has the priv
ilege Of robbing the deck. The points
to score are, High, Low, Jack and the
game (ten of trumps), with the Pedro
five of trumps), aud the five of the same
color which is next in value to Pedro.
Discards are laid faces up, so that it
may be known what is ont, and the re-
naming deck is also laid face up. Should
the lack, 10, or either five Of trumps be
discarded by mistake or otherwise, they
belong to the bidder.
Thursday evening the ladies Of the
Arion Society gave katfeeviSite, which
was largely attended. In connection
with IL was given hssenpfetfer supper,
which those who partook OF 1t pro-
nounced the best they ever tasted. On
the night OF February 90, the Arion
will give a banquet in celebration OF
Washington'S birthday. There will be
speeches on the country, the army,
the navy, aud other appropri-
ate topics. In addition the ban

tenth anniversary of the formation of
the Arion. On February the Opera
House Orchestra will give at the Arion
the annual promenade concert and ball.
