Wellington Angling Society, Prince George, 
Hill-street, AValworth.—Several members were out at 
Twickenham on the 26th ult., for the consolation prizes, 
but failed to obtain the requisite ^Ib.; the prizes will 
consequently bo fished for on the 5th, at the same place 
j and time. AA'ednesday being quarterly meeting night, 
Mr. Alec. Corras was elected chairman, and Mr. Haines 
' vice-chairman for the ensuing quarter. Messrs. AVyer 
j and Turnbull were re-elected delegates to the anglers’

Westbourne Park Piscatorial Society. -The 
annual dinner of this popular club took place at its 
I headquarters. The Pelican, All Saints’-road, AVest- 
. bourne Park, on Tuesday evening week, under the presi- 
I dency of Mr. J. AA’^ilkes. Owing to his serious illness, 
I Mr.^ George Evans was not able to take this prominent 
j position, but he was so far recovered a.s to occupy the 
I vice-chair, and right glad were both members and friends 
I to see his happy face amongst them again. There was a 
I very large attendance of guests, including Messrs. T. 
Crnmplen, AV. H. Brougham, H. Thompson (hon. sec ), 
S. Armfield, A. Flint, 'T. Bonner, C. Bott, T. Franklin, 
J. Bennett. A. Mears, H. Halbert, and J. 'Thomson. 
There was the usual list of toasts interspersed with vocal 
and instrumental music, the songs being effectively ren¬ 
dered by Messrs. J. Avon, A. Smart, T. Oatley, C. 
Rogers, and T. H. Bonner. During the evening 
the presentation of prizes won in 1892 took place, 
and this excellent club is rendered the more popular 
from the fact that prizes are only given for specimen 
fish, and amongst the successful competitors Mr. H. 
Thompson took prizes to the value of .£8 1.5s. ; Mr. H. 
C. Beatley, £4 7s.; Mr. Cuddon. £3 33.; Mr. Hulbert, 
<£3 3s.; Mr. George Evans, £2 123. 6d. ; Mr. Abbott, 
£2 2s.; Mr. Collier, £1 11s. 6d. ; Mr. AVood, £1 Is. ; 
and Mr. Martin, 10s. 6d. On the retirement of Mr. 
Evans, who had to leave at eleven o’clock, ho received a 
most hearty ovation from the members and friends, and 
I all hoped ho would soon bo able to resume his old post as 
chairman again. There are few men in the angling 
j world more respected, and on all convivial occasions he 
has been the life and soul of the party. Altogether the 
evening was a most enjoyable one, and of a most 
successful character.
