The National Club Project.

As expected the project of the National
Club has struck popular vein and its first
exhibition, which is to be given at Fergu-
sons theatre next Monday evening, will un-
doubtedly be literally patronized. Until the
announcement was made yesterday very few
people knew that the clubs gymnasium
was open to the public and its gener-
osity in that respect has made
many new friends Besides this a
course of athletic exhibitions of a clean,
wholesome and bona fde character will be a
novelty in the town the people will appre
ciate and if the club does not soon swell its
building fund we will be very much surprised
