Its Camp.
Three prominent members OF The
King Fisher Fishing club returned
from the clubs headquarters at Friendly
last evening, and report the club having
a ROYAL time. There is not another or
Qanization OF It's kind on the Ohio river
as we'll fixed, financially and comfort
ably located as the Kng-Fisher's. They
have a fine two story building, 60x30
feet, with sleeping apartments large
enough to accommodate, with beds and
bedding for each, fifty guests. Chief
Cook Rust handles the culinary depart
ment In a manner 10 suit the palate OF q
king. Seldom do they have less than
thirty guests for dinner. Their
treasury is not in line with the banksof
the country; on the contrary they have
about one thousand dollars with which
TO gladden. the hearts OF their visitors.
Their dancing pavilion Is crowded
every Monday, Wednesday and Friday
evenings, dancing TO the music OF their
Mandolin and Guitar Club accompanied
by the piano, an upright, purchased oy
the Club this season.
Thursday last Mr.. James Travis, OF
this city, celebrated his 2eth birthday.
About 100 Invitations were Issued TO
which rs responded. The evening was
spent in congratulations dancing, sing
ing and speech-making. About ten
o'clock a most refreshing luncheon was
spread, to which all did ample justice.
A pressing invitation was then brought
to bear upon Mr.. Thos. For, OF this
CITY. to sing song. He reluctantly ap-
reared upon the platform and sang
"Aster the Ball is Over" accompanied
by n. Menkemeller on the piano. He
was voted the champion Of the evening.
Mr.. George Fisher, Captain OF the
Climb. is the right man. In the right place.
No club on the Ohio has shown better
discipline than the King Fishers. Every
man is assigned. his duties for the
day. and all most readily obey bis COM
mand.
A stock OF fish and turtle are con-
stantIy on hands, as the members OF The
club have been very successful. while
in the ice house there is large stock
OF dressed lamb, veal and other eatables.
To-day a very tempting menu will be
served, to which the Captain invites the
rsportorial force Of the city papers.
