PLEASANT AFFAIR.
The Olympia Club Will Dance
Next Tuesday Night.


Teazed" Eucher club in most
hospitable manner. This club
which has been organized by the
young society ladies of the city is
just in its inception and the recep-
tioa rendered the members last
evening by Miss Wells was the first
meeting they have had since its
organization. 1t is composed OF
the best people of the city and
there is not the least doubt but that
the long winter evenings will be
most pleasantly whiled away at the
| fascinating game from which the
club takes its name. 1t is the OBJ,
ject to hold the meetings OF the
club at the homes of the members
alternately, and a meeting will
probably be held each week.
The meeting of the club last eve
ming at the home of Miss Wells was
most ENJOYABLE one, and if taken
as a criterion of the ones 10 be held
during the winter, there is not the
least doubt of pleasant time. The
| guests arrived at about s o'clock
and Miss Wells was assisted in re,
ceiv,ng by several of her young
lady friends. The playing com
menced at about 9 o'clock and as
there were some excellent players
III the club it was fascinating, ex-
citing and very interesting. Miss
Lucie Ramey received first prize,
and Col. Jack Kincaid got the sec
ond.
A very pleasant surprise for the
members Of the club was the elegant
luncheon served in the dining
room of the Hotel Wells which ad-

The outlook in social circles for
the winter in this city is all that
could be desired. There will be
quite number OF swell dances and
entertainments by the different or
carnations and it has even been
b nted that before the winter is over
lnere will be one or more weddings
but so far Dame Rumor has men.
toned no names. At meeting OF
a number of young men a short
time ago the Olympia club was or
ganized. This club will practically
take the place of the old Americas
club and the dances will be held
tri-weekly in the city building.
The first reception by the members
of this club will be held on Tues
day evening next. The Virginia
club has not been reorganized and
probably will not be but number
of the members have been making
arrangements to hold several inl-
promptu affairs during the winter
and the first one will probably &C.
cur in short time. A number OF
the younger set have been holding
meetings lately and it is very likely
there will be a couple Of clubs or
gapized for the purpose Of ca.ds
and other anusements. Whist does
not seem to have much OF a call
this year and although an interest
may be awakened in this game late
in the season the outlook for club
at the present time is not very ia,
vorable.
