The temples of Omaha society have been captured during the week past by a host ot youthful Invaders. To be sure thcro baa been none of the glorious pomp and circumstance of war. No clang of armed men , no crash ot musketry , and no booming of cannon has been heard. The conquest has been a peaceful one , but none the less complete on that account. The kings and queens who have held sway over the em pire of local society , their courtiers and the lesser satellites , have been routed and their thrones razed to the Ground. The week has been a brilliant one socially , especially for this season of the year , and the events concomitant with the conquest by the young folk have been well appointed and thoroughly enjoyed. It might almost bu said that society , certainly that of the real swagger set , has been completely given over to those who are to enjoy tliu festivities of the social world for ooveral seasons In the Immediate future. The older clique , appreciating the pre destinate victory of the younger set , took to the woods , the mountains , anywhere to escape from witnessing the ascendency of the fair debutants that are to bo and the gallant lads who will lead gcrmans and ar- raugo hlcyclo parties in the seasons soon to come. At first glance It would appear strange , If not ludicrous , that such an outbreak of the younger set should take place during the last week In July , In very midsummer. On reflection It will he seen that this was the most opportune time. The young women who are completing their education at fashionable uemlimrles and academics ( a few only have matriculated at colleges ) , re turned homo late In June , Many had to stop en louto to spend some time with their schoolmates. After their arrival home , an other week or two was spent In renewing acquaintances among thu family. This brings the uwcct girl student the tin do uk'de female seminary docs not graduate Its pupils down to the week that shines out en brightly on the season's social calendar , The gay young collegian was a trifle late himself In reaching home ; perhaps he lost on the deciding base ball game or the boat racu. However , the past week was really the best opportunity the youthful clique has had for enjoying occasion t > et apart to Itself. That the opportunity was well Improved , no one who has glanced at the Mat of festivi ties that crowded the past week's calendar can for a alngle moment doubt. The dances of the week have afforded one a chance to look around and see how beautiful and attractive are the fair maidens who will soon formally enter the realms of society. To such on observer no feeling of disappointment has come , rather a feel ing of pleasant anticipation for the numer ous coming-out parties and the aeries of gay events that will follow. These who will have charge of the Invitation lists for the Important functions of the coming season have also Improved the lawn , porch and dancing partita of the week by noting the names of those who have Im pressed them favorable. The con- Htructlon of new sets and the weeding out of old material has In the mean , while engrossed the attention of the matronly dames , while their husbands have quietly acquiesced. _ A pleasant surprise party was tendered to Miss Lllllo Sage by a number of her young friends at her residence , The evening was pleasantly spent aud relrcihnienU were imported Sress Sootls All the dress fiooils from this stock that iH'wuui' slishtly wet , consisting of all \vool plaids , silk stripes and silk and wool dress'oods , and line hlaek goods , all go at VJV yard slightly wet.

The musical talent and ability of Mr. Her- bprt Duller of thta city , now studying In Herlln , are receiving favorable comment of critics. Tlio work of his first scholastic year has been highly satisfactory to his former Instructors and friends In Omaha. Arthur M. Abell , correspondent of the New York Musical Courier , has this to say of him : "Mr. Butler Is a remarkable young man. Ho Is the best pupil of Prof. Guatav Hol- lacnder of the Stern conservatory. I heard him play the adagio and last movement from Spohr's ninth concerto. Ho has a large , reliable tcchnlc , one of the firm , solid technics equal to playing anything. Ho plays In excellent time and has a very flue trill. Ho also produces a good , pure tone. Ho can draw a large tone , as I observed the next day when ho played upon my violin. His own Instrument has not a very full lone , though the quality Is good. Butler plays like an artlat ; ho has a musical con ception , and Is not to be mentioned with the general run of conservatory pupils. "It sounds Improbable , but It Is a fact that he never had a lesson on his Instrument till lie wa 20 years old. He Is now 28. His father flddled a little by ear , and he did the same as a youth , but ho did not begin study before his 20th year. This .a a fact worthy of consideration. The number of violinists who of late years appear In public at a ten der age Is legion. Some new prodigy turns up ovcry few weeks and wo hear 3 and 10- yoar-old fooya playing the chaconne and the Paganlnl concerto. Such fcals no longer Interest mo , because they have become so common. But when a man begins to study the violin at 20 and accomplishes what Hut- Inr has accomplished this , I say. Is some thing worthy of reaped and admiration.
