Things are exceedingly dull about the
clubhouse now days. The reaction from
the excitement of anniversary work still
'tholGs the members in its apathe5ic grip"
as Mr.. Shepardson says. The men who
visit the house lounge about, smoke
cigars aud do little else thar talk about
the great celebration. The younger men,
bers are not through yet ventilating their
enthusiasm over the skirt dancer that
didn't dance.
There is emminent danger that game in
the northern part of the State will be-
come extinct. Billy Carter is going out
to Billy Leffert's preserves to shoot. A.
Fl. Wild is also going heavily into the
Strengthening of Birds ant "gamey ami
mails" But he will try his luck in the
Virginia Mountains. There is more
room down there, ne says and he would
be less liable to hit a man.
The Reading Club is not dead yet, as
many suppose, and in a few weeks it will
be in full operation. Then once more
will be seen astride powerful steeds the
%herculean Kellers, the Appolo-like Grouse.
the judicial looking Carrick, the DON'T
~let-ne-fall appearing Kellar, and Hud.
Clarke and Joe TroLIer, and all the other
horsemen who have made the club
famous.
The winter card, billiard and pool tour
naments Will soon be under way. Much
| interest will be taken in the sport his
year, as several new players are loom
Ing up.

The attendance at the New Jersey Club
during the past week has been unusually
slim. The Columbia celebrations are
accountable for this. On Monday and
Tuesday evenings several of the members
extended the privilege of the roof OF the
club house TO friends who desired to see
the fireworks. A splendid view could be
had from this point. The naval parade
was also witnessed by the members from
the roof.

difficulty in finding partners during the

Hudson society.

The annual meeting of the Hudson
Democratic Society will be held on We'd
nesday. Every member is requested to
be present as the annual election of
officers will take place and other business
of interest to every member of the Society
will be transacted. The matter of secur
ing speakers to talk before the club upon
the leading questions Of the day will also
be considered.
Otto Grouse has been missed, yea sadly
missed, from the evening symposiums of
the society of late. Mr.. Grouse has been
confined to his home by a severe attack
of neuralgia but he Is now out again. He
will appear at the clubhouse before long
and then those men who think they can
play pool had better look out.
George Record is another popular mem.
Der who appears to have shaken the dust
of the clubhouse from his feet. But his
absence is more Than eXcusable, it is COM
mendable. Ge0lg e is in great demand as
o campaign orator. and is Kept busy fill
ing engagements for the State Commit
tee. He speaks some times twice q day,
and is considered one Of the best speakers
on the State Committees list.
Ernest Heppenheiner is frequently
seen about the clubhouse now. He is
making up for the nights he has missed
while on the Texas plains.
Carteret Club
A quiet little stag was held at the
Cartefet Clubhouse last Satur day even
ing. Atrio of semi-professionals furnished
the fun on this occasion. Only a few of
the members were present.
The genial Frank Clark of ssnap shotn
fame secured a number of fine views last
Tuesday of the great naval parade. He
will divide the pictures between the Art
Committees of the Carteret and Jersey
City Athletic Clubs.
There are two new propositions for
membership in the hands of the Inyesti-
eating Committees. This makes a batch
of half dozen applications to be acted
upon at the next meeting of the club.
The success which attended the Satur-
day nights of the Palma Club has caused
the Entertainment Committee of the Car
terets to decide upon similar events. Be-
ginning tonight, Saturday nights will be
held. Ihe very best talent obtainable is
to be secured on each occasion. Music
and dancing will be the attraction to-
night.
Bid euchre is now occupying the undi-
vided attention of the card players.
Nightly a half dozen of the old players
can be seen seated about a card table en-
joying the game. President Post is I'M
usually lucky at the game.
The Reception Committee met last
Thursday evening and discussed, it is
sud, the feasibility of holding d reception
in the early part of December. II it is
decided to postpone the big reception
until later in the season several ladies'
nights Will be held. The social season

Arlington.
WAYNE ATHLETES MEET.
Bowling, Athletics, Handball, Foot
ball and Gun.

The Palma team won another Associa-
ton game last night. l. looked like de-
feat until the final frames when they
rallied and jumped to the front. The
game was bowled on the Arlington Ath-
letic Clubs alleys. The Palma boys were
without the services of three of the regu-
lars-Lutz, Entrup and Carter, n the
substitutes. Brown, Shaw and Mackellar
stepped into the vacant places. The subs
did well. Brown made the top score,
and Mackellar was third. The score was
low. as the Jersey City boys could not
fathom the wrinkles Of the new alleys.
The home team began with a lead or Y
pins. In the second they tackled on -,
and in the third had a lead of 81.
There was every indication that the
Pal;nas would be distauced. In the
fourth the Jersey City bowlers found the
pins in fine style. They had only n
break. Four strikes and i've spares were
corralled and Arlingtons' lead dropped to
made another cash in the lead,
and Palma was only 90 behind. The
sixth was 4 bad frame. Two spares
and Il strike were all the credits gathered
and Arlington advanced to 43 points.
Five spares and two striks ia the seventh,
four OF which were doubled. reduced the
home teams advantage to 10. Then Ar
lington went to pieces. The eighth
closed with Palma only eight behind.
In the ninth they leaped to the front
for the first time aud had a comfortable
margin uf 81. In the tenth Gopsill, who
was bowling on a strike, secured a strike
and a spare. Brown doubled on u strike,
and Hathaway piled a spare on q spare in
the ninth, and Palma had the game by
so pins. George Brown bowled the last
five frames without a break. He had
strikes in the sixth, seventh, ninth aud
tenth frames, and a spare in each of the
three last frames. The sccre:-
