The second annual reception of the Young Men's Social Club was held at Haltnorth’s Hall last Wednesday even ing. The members of the Y. M. S. C., with their ladies and friends began to arrive about 8:30 o’clock, and by 9:30 the hall presented a most brilliant scene. At twelve o’clock they repaired to the dining-hall below, where supper was served. During intermission, an elegant satin banner, bearing, with its other elaborations the initials of the social club, the handiwork and gift of Misses Belle F. Chew and Sadie C. Cook, was presented, in a neat little speech, to the society by the former lady, ae a token of the appreciation in which rhe young men and their efforts to form a democratic, yet select social organization, are held by them. Mr. Will Fairfax replied in a few well chosen words, saying the Y. M. S. C. would appreciate and treasure the gift as long as the organization existed. After supper dancing was resumed until an excellently prepared pro gramme of twenty-four dances was concluded. The gathering was quite large, although but three-fourths the number expected were present. The Fern Leaf Social Club of Washington, D. C , invited in a body, were unable to be present, but were represented by Mr. Philip Malvin, one of its founders, who wore the society badge. Regrets were also received from Miss Taylor, of Williamsport, Pa., Miss Sarah Mitchell and others in the city. There were a number of visitors present from outside the city, among whom were Misses Williams and Derritt, of Harrisburg, Pa., and Misses Cottrell and Fields, of Toledo. Prof. B. C. Freeman’s orches tra furnished the music, which is a a sufficient voucher for its excellence. We would say the reception was de cidedly one of the most successful and enjoyable social events of the season. The Light of the West Lodges enter tainment at Halcyon Hall Christmas night was largely patronized, although the audience gathered late. The pro gramme was carried out to the letter with the exception of Hon. J. P. Green’s address, which was ommitted on account of his inability to be present. The singing by the quartette was very good. Mr. Martin Imes’ recitation was quite good. The duet by Miss Della Wheaton and Mr. J. Brown was well rendered. Mr. Charley Brown par formed his selection sb well that he had to respond with an encore. Mr. J. W. Brown possesses an excellent tenor voice, which we would like to hear ofteuer. The selection, “Christmas in the quarters,” by Miss May Brown de serve? special mention. Miss Brown is a young lady of exceptional elocution ary ability combined with a good sing ing voice. She recites with an ease and grace whieh is unusual in one so young. Her voice is pleasant and pow erful, but lacks a little smoothness which is always the case with one not continually in practice and before the public. Her rendering of the se lection was good—-even better than we have heard it by persons who bear a greater name with the public. She re sponded to an encore with a number which called into requisition her vocal abilities, in which she is little less pro ficient. Mr. H. C. Smith’s cornet solo was very well rendered, but not as good as some*we have heard given byhim- After the exercises were concluded dancing was in order until a late hour, music being furnished by H. C. Smith’s orchestra. The refreshments disap peared so rapidly that there was not enough to supply* the demand long be fore the evening was over. The suc cess of this pleasant entertainment is due to the indefatigable efforts of the committee, particularly R. A. Jones, chairman of the committee. There were quite a number of strangers pres ent, among whom was Mr. Cottrell, of Toledo, O. Professor R. R. Wright, of Augusta, Ga., appeared before the Senate Com mittee on Education and Labor, and in his testimony made an able defense of ! the colored people of Georgia and the Negro in general, against aspersions made by some of the Bourbons of his city. five of the Banks County, Ga., Ku j kluxes have been sentenced to two years’ imprisonment, and to pay a SSOO fine each.

The Christmas tree and concert given on Tuesday at the A. M. E. Sabbath School was well attended. Elder Ross and R. R. Masingburg had so arranged that each one of the Sabbath School members would get a present, and some of them being very amusing, causing much laughter. The ladies had plenty of refreshments <Si hand, and thus the evening was happily spent. The sisters of the Ladies’ Court gave a very enjoyable social on Monday evening last, but it would have been much better patronized if it had been made more public. We think that some of our young ladies might show a little more refine ment when returning from Sabbath school and church. They might pitch the notes of their musical organs a little lower. (Their talk last Sunday as an example.) The five-year-old son of Mr. George Field is lying very low with the measles. Miss Mary. Ward will spend New Years in Detroit.
