What merry party there was in Carroll
street hall Thursday afternoon. The
Bachelors Club, composed OF number
of bright young men from Smith Hill and
vicinity, gave its second select social, and
over 100 couples participated in the
grand march which was led by Mr.. George
Christian and Miss Nellie Foy. The hall
was profusely decorated with potted
plants and flowers in honor OF the oc-
casion, and the handsome costumes of the
many pretty girls seemed to blend in
harmony with the scene.- It was a very
merry company with not single bene-
dick among them. The large number of
pretty girls present showed that the Bach
elors are not as old as some people migh
think. In fact any one OF them are young
men from 20 to 80, and If their conduct at
the social Is any criterion many OF the
Bachelors will be Benedicks year hence.
The Bachelors always draw large pat
ronage. The very fact of thsm
being Bachelors and very popular
with the female sex may
be the cause of this. Then again, the

Der of handsome young men, among
whom are the officers. The Bachelors al
