 Miss Alma Lane. at the handsome home of her parents, Hon. and Mrs. A. O. Lane, entertained the new euehre club last evening. This club Is composed of the young debutantes of Birmingham so- ciety, and the young lady members in- vite their escorts for each entertainment. The elegant Lane home was beautifully decorated last evening with ferns and lovely roses. The refreshments were de- lieious and unique; the sandwiches, jel- lied chicken and other tempting articles of the menu represented the different cards of the playing deck, and excited the greatest admiration because of their artistic arrangement. It was a charming meeting of this newest of Birminghams social organizations.
 
 The bazaar of the First Methodist church is a place of beauty, a spot of enchantment. The booths line the huge store room, and are profusely adorned with gay draperies, vines and all the wealth of color and form. They are filled to overfiowing with almost every device that appeals to the taste and needs of housekeepers, the desires of children and the craving of young and old for the beautiful in life and living. There are exquisite embroideries sofa pillows, dolls. toys, confections and cakes; but why attempt to tell of the hundreds of articles that can only be appreciated by a personal inspection!
 The following elegantly engraved invi- tation has been received by the friends of Judge and Mrs. Arnold, and 1t tells of the approaching marriage of one of the loveliest most admired and greatly be- loved young girls in all the length and breadth of this great commonwealth of ours. Although a Mississippian by birth, Miss Fannie Arnold has been sufficiently long in Alabama to give us a claim uponI her, and the affection we bear her en- forces this right. MT. DeBardeleben Is an Alabamian of promise and promi- hence, and Is worthy of the great happi- ness that has come to him:
 MT. and Mrs James Mason Arnold re- quest the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Fannie. to MT. Ferdinand DeBardeleben, on
 Wednesday afternoon, January l, 1896, 230 o'clock. First Methodist church, Birmingham, Ala"
 May the years that lie before these happy young friends be full of the sun- shine and sweetness of life; be overflow ing with the brightest and richest bless ings.
 The bazaar of St. Paul's church and the bazaar of the Cumberland Presbyterian church are progressing finely, and are literally patronized by our generous citizens.
