Palma Club.
The last lecture on astronomy In the Palma
Club lecture course will be delivered on Thurs
day evening at the clubhouse. These lectures
have proven a complete success, both in them
selves and in the attendance upon them. Every
one who has attended has expressed his hearty
appreciation of these discourses, and the wisdom
confirmed. Arrangements have been made for
another course which will begin as soon as this
one closes. 1t will comprise six lectures on
English literature by Professor James R. Camp
bell Of Rutgers College. Professor Campbell is
highly spoken OF both as an instructor and lee
turer and there IS reason to believe that his

Owing to the ladies' reception last night at the
clubhouse, the Friday Night Bowling Club did
not meet. The only regret that the members Of
the club have over the matter Is that they are
afraid the loss Of last nights play will throw
General Heppenheimer back where he was at
the opening Of the season, and all the labor they
have bestowed upon HIM, teaching him to keep
his ball out of the gutter will be lost.
The great s'Grabeolor which will be given this
evening by the Entertainment Committee Is
exciting much speculation among the boys.
They can't make up their minds whether they
are to grab or be grabbed Nevertheless the
entertainment promises to be an exceedingly
Watch Night Services" have been provided for
In a manner which portends and enllvening and
invigorating time for all who attend.

organize for the coming season. At the same
time a grand reunion of all the former members
will take place in the clubs tanbark arena. The
occasion will be a jolly one and will start the
season with appropriate ceremonies.
The change which is to be made in the library
and which was announced in these columns last
week, meets with the hearty appreciation Of all
membars Of the club, and the committee have
been layishly covered with praise. The work
will soon be commenced, and before long the
improvement will be an established fact.
New Jersey Club.
The New Jersey Clubhouse never presented a
prettier appearance than it does at the present
time. The members Of the House Committee
have exercised great care and excellent taste in
decorating the rooms. The cause of all this is
the usual New Years Eve stag. The indications
are that this years celebration will eclipse those
of former years. No expense has been spared
to make it a bowling success, aud the members
have invited their friends to enjoy the festivities
with them. Talent from New York has been
until midnight, and X is highly probable that a
brass band will get in its deadly work as the
whistles foot.
The Carteret,
There will be a stag racket this evening at the
Cateret Clubhouse. The members will usher in
the New Year with an entertainment warranted
to please every one.
The Amusement Committee has arranged for
an elaborate stag and a jolly time will probably
be had by those SO fortunate as to be present.
There are three proposals for admission to the
club In the hands of the Membership Com
mittee.
Arion and Berkeley Clubs.
A large delegation of the Arions attended the
Christmas festival of the Hudson City Ger
mistchte-chor at Pohlmann's last Sunday night,
and enjoyed a pleasant evening.
The wives and daughters of the members Of
the ArIen Club made many poor people happy
last Thursday afternoon with gifts OF clothing
and fuel. These charitable ladies derived a
great deal of pleasure from the heartfelt thanks
Of the poor people they had befrieHded.
Among the ladies who were most active in
the good work were:-Mrs. Hilarius Pattherg,
Mrs. siegfried Hammerschlag, Mrs. Wagner,
Raven, Mrs. Klein, Mrs. Weiss, Mrs. Dresemer
and Mrs. Leindecker.
Mrs. Schink also deserves q great deal OF
at the head of the society Of the ladies' and did
o great deal to make everybody happy.
The members OF the Arion Club are enthusi-
astic over the good work done by the female
work will be repeated next year.
The Arion Club will hold a grand ball at an
early date. 1t will be the leading event Of the
Heights.
The Berkeley Club does not seem to be doing
ANYTHING just at present, but there Is no doubt
but that many of the members will drop
around tonight and see the old year out.
Acouple OF stays and ladies' nights, II arranged
the club again, and make it, as it was once, one
Of the leading clubs in the city.
