of the balance of the club wore not ms good as usual for the 
Carol mas, and they will have to use a little more discipline 
with the younger members of their team if they hope to keep 
their place in the flr9t ranks of our crack shots. The Caroli- 
nas have made arrangements to have a line soootiiv stand 
built on their range, and as a proof of their well known gal- 
lantry and of their high esteem for the fair sex, they will have 
a flue hall for danciug and the accommodation of their Indy 
friends, attached to their stand. They hope to have every- 
thing completed by the 15th of next month, and will give a
