The numerous and reasonably sturdy con * tlngent of noclcty people which remain * In Omnha during the hailed term has not been ovc oiked of late In the formal imrault of Its tliuan pleasures. There lias been Just < nouMi going on to keep the iilinmcr girl nnd the Mimmer boy Jointly and couse'ihlly employed , and to present the complste ex- tin Uon of that Indispensable ndjuirt ot civilization , the Sunday society colunn.

In the firs' n popular und successful practitioner was < -alh.il out of | IH ! bul at 1 o'cloc.1 : a. in. to answer a tilephono call from one of MB most \alucd pallunts an old und eminently respectable citizen who was suffering with nil the dlbtrwsful symptoms of cholera mor- bus 'Ilit' allllctcd one Himself hail tcle- jihonod In an Interval ot his malady , not wishing to dlsttn b the repose of his EOD- in-law , who \\no the only member of the family then ut home. The doctor posted In nil haste to the ancestral intuition and found the old gentleman In such genuine distress that ho deemed It expedient to stay with him the remainder ot the night 'Ihc son in-law was heard moving about once or twice , as If iinnoyed at the confusion , but ho did not show hlmselt or give any algn of sympathy with the sufferer. Jn the morning the doctor , passing some what dl > heeled after n night's vigil through the hall toward the toilet room , met the younger man. who seemed discieetlj to avoid his glance and to be In haste. "Old man's pretty sick , " said the doc tor ; and all the son-in-law icpllcd was "That so1" with a toleiantly unbelieving wog of the head. The doctor left bis patient doing well and on the road to complete and speedy re covery and spent the day In his usual round of professional duties. Toward evenIng - Ing ho encountered the son-lu-law. "Doc tor , " Bald he , "I owe you an apology. You must have considered my behavior last night most unfillal and hard hearted. The fact Is , I thought the OKI gentleman was on a 'bat * and I didn't want to embarrass him by seeming to take any notice ; and seeing you up thcro looking pretty eecdy this morning I thought the pair of you bad been making a night of It. " The other doctor was not aroused In the wee sma' hours , but his summons came quite late In the evening , at the close of one of the hottest days of the late hot spell. Ho had Just bathed and changed his linen and waa preparing for a much-needed rest and an early retiring. The telephone bell lang and at the other end of the line was a citizen of credit and renown , whose walk In life , except on those rare occasions when ho wrostlcd unavalllngly with John Barleycorn - corn , was steadfast and decorous. Hla voice betrayed the fact that he had beyond per- ndvonturo fallen once moro a victim to his besetting vice. "Doc , " said he , " 's this doc ? Mus' come right away ; serious case lllncsa. " "Who's sick ? " lulled the doctor. "You ? " "No , " said the other , with some show of Indignation ; "I'm not nick , only Jess plain drunk on account grief. 'S my wife. She's dan-dan-dangcroubly sick. Mind's affected. " So the physician , with a longing look at the hammock on his cool south porch , callcn up hit * cairlago and Bet out. Arrived at Ills destination , ho was astonished to sec the Ine-briato's wlfo talking across the fence to somu friends In the next yard , with no elgn of mental alienation or Illness ot any kind. The Inebriate himself was found In his cory library , with means at hand for prolonging and even augmenting his jag. "Cra < ! y , " said ho , as the doctor upbraided him ; "crazy's a loon. No woman 'twasn't crazy stipend all time talkln' over a fence to neighbors. Ain't so , doc ? " And the doctor , being a man of Iron self-control , withheld hla wrath at that tlmo ; but when he got home , and before ho stretched him self In the hammock on the cool porch , he recorded the chatgo of a fee In his account book against that bibulous man In slzo the very limit of fees which may lawfully be chaigcd by a ph > blclan for night visits.

AMUSEMENTS. With two performances todiy the Wood- wnrd Theater company enters upon the fifth week of Its successful season at the Crelgh- ton. Summer engagements In Omaha ha\e not hitherto brought large pecuniary returns to their promoters , and so gloomy has been the record of past failures that the discretion of Mr. Woodward was seriously questioned when he first proposed to give local theater goers six straight weeks of low-price enter tainment. Tho'eveiit ' , however , has vindi cated his judgment and proved that the less wealthy classes. . In Omaha are as quick to recognize ineilt and as steadfast In their loyalty to a good thing as their moro for tunate fellow citizens. The performances given by the Vfoodward company , although not Invariably good , ha > o unquestionably given satisfaction 19 the uniformly largo audiences , and ther ( > have been few occa sions when even a Critical observer coulJ not find much to commend. The dally mat inees , which were/ / considered an extra haz ardous feature o the yenture , have turned out very well , and although they probably draw somewhat from , | thet night au ie icee , they are stfil uuquestlonably remunerative. The members of the company are getting used to each other and are working together much more smoothly than at first , consider ing all drawbacks. When It is remembered that they no sooner get a play In fair run ning order than they take up a new one. It will become a matter of wonder that their work Is as good as it Is. With two public performances dally , and the almost continu ous rehearsals , which aie absolutely neces > - sary to bring about three changes of bill a week , their time Is very fully taken up , and some of them are showing the effect , ' ? ol overwork. Miss Ernest , the leading woman , grows steadily In popular favor. She has many graces of presence and manner , a pleasant voice , and evident intelligence and refine ment ; and these latter qualities are the very ones which will make her own faults and deficiencies apparent to her and show her the way to overcome them. Mr. Noble cannot bo said to have appeared at bis best or to have done himself justice In many of the parts which have been assigned him There were many good points , however , about his performance of Joe Morgan in that venerable classic of melodrama , "Ten Nights In a Barroom , " and he did creditable work In " " Ho Is "Forgiven" earlier In the week carrying the arduous duties of stage di rector In addition to those already noted , and has evidently too much to do. Mr. Livingston Is painstaking und reliable , and bis vivacious wife , Miea Montgomery , lies made one or two decided Impressions In small parts. Miss Carleton Improves upan ac quaintance and Is n strong favorite with the audiences , as are Mr. nnd Mrs. Rush The habit of nddrcsblng the nudlonce , however , is npparcntly in danger of becoming confirmed with Mr. Rush , who should tnko measure. ! to rid himself of what Is likely to handicap him seriously if ho wlstus to rise to the position to which bis real ability entitles him. him.So So many requests have been received for a repetition of "Tho Lost Paradise" that the management has decided to present It again next Thuisday night. Today nnd tomorrow "A Crazy Idea , " a new and dl\ertlng comedy , will bo offered , -with an augmented east. Tuesday and Wednesday "Three Silk Hats" will be the bill. There will bo two performances dally , ns heretofore. Tbo J. E. D. C. , a dramatic club , gave. Its fourth annual entertainment nt the rcl- donco of Augustus Lockner , 2526 Davenport street , last Wednesday and Thursday evenIngs - Ings The first play was "Forget-me-nots , " the cliaracters being : Henry Seymour .
