The North Side Private Butlers of Chicago will open a series of entertain ments with a dance at Wellington ball, 70 North Clark street, tomorrow night.

Only twenty-five butlers have been admitted to membership, and these are some of the best-known young colored society men in Chicago. The membership was thus limited because the interests of the organization can be best served only by butlers in the service of wealthy fami lies of high social standing.
