dicious subdivision of the labor, are

dens imposed. Everything around the
handsome building is on the jump, and
the fear is now expressed that the hall,
spacious as it is, Will prove a tight fit
for the crowds expected at the opening
on the day set aside by a grateful re-
public TO the memory Of the Father of
his country, the immortal George,
who could not for the life of him pre-
varicate. II promises to be gala day
and night at the club, and many will
be drawn by curiosity to see the
building after the addition of the beau
tiful auditorium.
Indeed. members are anticipating the
event and crowding it to catch a
glimpse of the new and elaborate ap-
