The Chautauqua Club held its meet
ing with Van Ness last week, and, as
usual, passed a profitable two hours
Two papers were read, one on 1.-THE

J. F. LleweIlyn last week and quite an
interesting letter 10 their Special

to subsection, was having a little tiff
with Charles VIII OF France, which
unpleasantness the Wednesday mem-
bers thoroughly sifted. Mrs. w. J..

Miss Abble Llewellyn most delight
fully entertained the Poverty Club
last Thursday night. Ithas been some
time since this club met and they
were very hungry, but Miss Llewellyn
having a fellow feeling, had prepared
an unusual amount OF extremely nice
refreshments, which disappeared like
magic. In addition TO the members
there we're some visitors, namely:
Misses Annie Lewis, Edith Etheridge,
Rose Guthrie and Nellie Hill; Messrs.
Hawthorne, Finley, Coil, Burch, Sharp
and Ralph Buckner. Besides these
young gentlemen was the not incon-
siderable force which Miss Abbie can
muster from her home circle.
Miss Grace McIntire most pleasant
" entertained some OF her girl and
boy friends last night. These young
people propose to be a club as soon as
they can evolve 3 suitable name for
themselves. We heartily commend
the originality Of their idea. Mexico
needs some clubs. IL is sadly lacking
along that line. The following girls
propose to become charter members
of this organization: Misses
Grace Mcintyre, Fannie Clark, Eu-
genia Davis, Nell Cauthorn, Anna
Potts, Annie Lewis and Grace Boyd.
The following gentlemen assisted
them to organize last evening: Messrs.
Br0ckhouse, Coil, Hamilton, Finley,
