The Deutscher Verein.

The farce "Eine Partie Piquet" given by the Deutscher Verein on Wednesday was the last of the four short plays given this winter, the other three being "Mein Papa," "Der Moderno Hercules," and "Zu Refehl Herr Rittmeister."

The membership of the Verein has more than doubled this year owing chiefly to those small plays, and to the lectures which have been given throughout the winter by members of the German Department and German visitors to the University. The finances of the Verein were helped by the success of "Der Herr Senator," the fifth annual play. Over $400 was cleared on the public performance, and with this money a four year lease of the club rooms on Massachusetts avenue has been secured; the rooms have been furnished, and a small stage and settings completed.
