THE MEN ECLIPSED.
The Woman's Club Royalty Cele-
brates its Progress.

An Evening of Enjoyment with
Rare wit and TaIent--How the
Club Entered Upon its Tenth
Year.
Every hack and quincy was kept busy
last evening in going to and from the West
side home of Mrs S. w. Perciyal, where
the Woman's Club Of Olympia was cele-
brating the entrance upon the tenth year
of its organization. The beautiful mansion
was Illuminated throughout and presented
a picturesque appearance across the waters,
while within all was Joy and gayety. The
aim of the Woman's Club was to excel
anything of a social nature that has been
chronicled in Olympia, and its effort of last
evening was in every way a success.
Potted plants green's, Ivy and cut flowers
greeted the eye within the spacious hall
way. In the east bay window had been
provided neat little platform and the ex-
ercises opened with selection from Som
nambula, by Prof. Roberts. Mrs. M. f,
Brown, the new president of the club, made
the address of welcome. Mrs. w. II. Rob
erts rendered a guitar solo, which
was followed by burlesque entitled
fShakespearean Women at a Watering
Place." with this cast: Juliet, Miss Janet
Moore; Portia, Mrs. w, T. Forest Opbelia,
Mrs. DR.. Oliver; Lady Macbeth, Mrs. Sam
uel StOrk. In the rendition of the program
it was fully demonstrated that it is unnec-
cessary in the future, for Olympians to
send away for talent for amateur entertain
ments. The fact that we have better than
any which have come here, was evidence by
every person who took part in the pro-
gram last evening. The reading was ad-
mirable and would have done credit to
many pretentious dramatic readers.
Following the program was an enjoya-
Bile and amusing feature, in the presenta-
ton Of profile of each member cut out
of white paper, and exhibited on a black
board. Accompanying each profile was a
silhouette, which had been prepared by
Mrs. Stuart They were verses pertinent
to the person called, were full of wit and
humor, and occasioned lots of fun.
AT the banquet, the most tempting menu
was served, consisting of

Pickles. Lobster Salad. Olives.
Cake. Lady Fingers. Macaroons.
