P. J. WILLIAMS & CO.
Columbus has ever been noted for its
refined society and its observance of those
social amenities which give a richer gloss
to everyday life, and emphatically demon
strated the affirmative side of the oft
repeated query, “Is life worth the living.”
Surely in Columbus it is, and
the event of last night was a practical
illustration of the verity of the declaration.
Where good hnmor reigns, where genuine
hospitality holds full sway and knightly
courtesy, chivalry and genial welcome
waits upon the threshold, what else is
needed to soften the asperities, the weari
ness and the vexations which environ the
every day struggle for happiness and com
fort. And the existence in full
force and vigor of these essentials
in the demonstration of the
proposition, which was so practically ex
emplified in the formal opening reception
of the Muscogee Club last evening, justifies
the assertion that in this fair city the palm
of rational pleasure and refined enjoyment
will be yielded to none. In brief the open
ing reception of the Muscogee Club, com
posed of the representative business and
professional men of Columbus, was a
brilliant success and reflected infinite credit
upon the governing committee and the
members. The result was an evening of
rare pleasure, the memory of which will
long linger with the favored guests, bright
ened with the glimmer of pleasures en-
joyed.
The reception was announced for 9
o’clock promptly, at which hour the cour
teous committee under the chairmanship
of that genial gentleman, J.
K. Orr, Esq., was on hand to
welcome the gnests of the club.
The spacious apartments of the club
house were elaborately and magnificently
decorated, the most exquisite and artistic
taste being displayed in the arrangements.
The guests were enthusiastic in their admi
ration, and enconiums were everywhere
bestowed.
Shortly after 9 o’clock the “plazer,” in
front of, and contiguous to the club house,
presented an animated scene, as carriage
following carriage arrived at the entrance,
deposited its precious freight of fair,lovely
women and chivalrous men. Inside the
club house a picture was presented worthy
the pencil of a Hogarth. A lovelier scene
could not have been desired. Nearly
“four hundred invitations” had been
issued, and the brilliant assemblage which
graced the different rooms of the club
house was evidence that the declinations
from untoward circumstances were few.
In the hall on the second floor was sta
tioned a superb string band, and the suite
on the left was devoted to the services of
the nimble-footed goddess. In waltz and
cotillion, shottische and quadrille the mo
ments sped by with lightning speed until
the hour of midnight, when the lower floor
was sought, where was served an elegant
supper. The arrangements were well in
keeping with the intentions of the club
that this reception, a social, formal
opening of their beautiful home,
should be crowned with the
choicest favors in the cornucopia
of plenty. Through the two spacious rooms
on this floor were set tables conveniently
arranged for parties of four to eight, and
these were constantly occupied by merry
groups. The service was simply perfect
in its expedition, and the menu was tempt
ing enough to turn the head of a sybarite.
Champagne was galore and all the acces
sories of a delightful feast were at hand.
It was the intention of the Enquiber-
Sun to give a list of the guests present
and a description of the many beau
tiful toilettes of the charm
ing fair ones who graced the
occasion, but the special missionary
deputized for this service, bewildered by
the magnificent sight of-feminine loveli
ness, lost his reckoning, and not knowing
where to begin nor where to leave off,
abandoned the task, and reported in one
laconic sentence that the “Reception of
the Muscogee Club of Columbus was par
excellence the event of the social season
and would be so chronicled in the annals
of society.”
Resolutions on the Death of Mb.
Isaac I. Moses.—At a meeting of the
High School Literary Club, the following
resolutions on the death of Mr. Isaac I.
Moses were submitted and unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God
to remove from our midst our dear friend,
Mr. I. I. Moses, and,
Whereas, A proper respect for the
memory of the deceased calls for an ex
pression of our regret of this sad bereave
ment, which has deprived us of a kind
and generous friend; therefore,
Resolved, That in the death of Mr.
Moses we have lost a friend of whose h’gh
sense of honor, love of truth and spotless
purity of character, we cheerish the most
affectionate remembrance.
Resolved, That our sympathy is hereby
tendered to the afflicted family of the
decease in their irreparable loss.
Resoved, That a copy of these resolutions
be transmitted to the family of the de
ceased and the press of the city.

DAMAGE WROUGHT BY A TERBIFFIC SNOW
STORM.
Pittsburg, Pa., December 17.—The
snow fall today is the heaviest in several
years. The wires are down all over Pitts
burg, Allegheny and Birmingham. Horses
were killed and several men badly injured
this morniug by contact with the electric
light wires. The situation is so desperate
that the department of public safety has
ordered all electric street car lines to stop
running for the present. There has been
a tremendous snow fall in the Allegheny
Mountains. At Bedford, it is one and a
half feet deep on a level. Railroad
wires are down and there is
much anxiety for fear of accidents. The
Pittsburg and Western railroad is snowed
up completely. No freight trains what
ever were running on any roads, and the
passenger trains that straggled through
were late from one to six hours. Business
in the city is almost entirely suspended,
an example being the fact that no quota
tions were posted at the Petroleum Ex
change during the day, owing to the lack
of telegraphic communication. The police
patrol and fire alarm system of wires are
badly crippled, and the switch board at
the city hall was burned out this morning.
The electric light wires were prostrated
early in the day, and those dependent on
them are without light. All street car
lines in Sonth Pittsburg were tied up and
the incline planes were not running.

Did You Ever
Look on the Label
of your favorite baking powder to see
if all the ingredients were published ? .
Some baking powders advertised as
“absolutely pure” are Bhown by the
official reports to contain injurious sub
stances, as ammonia or alum.
Housekeepers, therefore, who desire
wholesome food should refuse to buy
ANY baking powder unless all the
ingredients are frankly made known.
For years the ingredients used in
Cleveland’s Superior Baking Powder
have been published, and the analysis as
stated is verified by the highest testi
mony in the land.
CurxLAss Bunt Powsax Co.,
9 SlaadmFaltoaSL. New York.
The importance of Columbus as a com
mercial, industrial and financial centre is
demonstrated by the fact that monied in
stitutions seek it as a profitable field for
operation. Its future prosperity is un
questioned, and with abundance of cheap
money to stimulate building, real estate in
every section and every interest will be
benefited.
The gieat necessity of the present is
more houses, for an enquiry at the various
real estate offices will verify that the de
mand is greater than the supply; and it
may not be an exaggeration to say that
several hundred houses could be rented at
profitable rate.
Appreciating these facts, the Eastern
Building and Loan Association, of Syra
cuse, New York, capital stock $50,000,-
000.00, has organized a Branch or Local
Board in this city to loan money on fin
ished property, bnild houses and stop rent,
encourage and promote development, and
afford the depositor a safe and profitable
Investment.
The Eastern Building and Loan Asso
ciation is a National Saving and Invest
ment Bank, headquarters at Syracuse,
New York, with branches in the various
desirable counties and States in the Union,
through which the surplus money of the
Northern States may be loaned in the
Sonth, which is rapidly developing and
needing ample supply of cheap money on
long time.
This association is similar to banks, ex
cept when deposits be made in ordinary
banks the depositor relies only upon the
confidence, integrity and ability of the
bank to honor his check upon presenta
tion, without interest, whiie in this bank,
the depositor puts confidence in nothing.
Every deposit is loaned on tty years’ time
to its members only, through local boards,
or branches, upon undoubted first mort
gage securities, and repaid in full after 30
days’ notice. After six months, 6 per
cent interest per annum allowed to two
years, 7 per cent after two years, and 8
per cent after three years, with 21 per cent
resulting at end of six and a half years.
Should six monthly deposits be made in
advance 22f per cent will result, while 12
deposits prepaid will produce 24| per cent
profit per annum to the depositor.
The safeguards under the New York
law and surveillance of the Bank Exam
iner of the State, and the further protec
tion by the by-laws of the association,
renders it impregnable against runs or
financial panics.
The mission of the Eastern Building and
Loan Association is to provide an abso
lutely safe and profitable investment for
those who can spare the money monthly,
at the same time loan to the borrower at 5
per cent per annum for 6$ years, and al
low re-payment in monthly installments of
$15.84 for each $1000 loan, to enable him
to improve his property and supply various
business wants. It is a help-mate to
banks, supplying wants the banks cannot,
and benefits the section where a branch is
established, as innumerable industries and
business are inaugurated and fostered,
that might otherwise not exist in conse
quence of high rates of interest and
scarcity of capital, especially in the South
ern States.
All the profits are divided in proportion
to the amount deposited monthly by in
vestors. Each depositor receives the same
rate per cent per annum, whether the de
posit be large or small, affording the poor
the same advantage to deposit or borrow
as tbe rich. The expenses are limited by
its charter, under the law of New York, to
10 cents on each monthly deposit of 75
cents. Each deposit is compounded
monthly, and all the profits divided be
tween the investor and borrower pro rata.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
Maturity of all stocks in 0J years; guar
anteed withdrawal of all installments at
