According to one of the girls, society has
become so dry that It Is In danger of Ig
niting this hot weather and. 'indeed, her
complaint seems well made, for the affair
of the past week, of any consequence,
could be counted on the fingers of ons
hand. No one Is entertaining except as
obliged to do so for guests, and as the
guests are few just at present this neces
sity Is slight. There has been not even the
activity that the return of the college peo
ple brings, for while most of them are
through for the summer, those who have
come home have not stayed long and It
might as well be December as July so
far as any contribution of theirs helps out.
The meetings of the Euchre club, to be
held at the Country club, beginning this
week, leaves practically nothing of conse
quence going on In town excepting the few
little card clubs that meet mornings, and
half of these that started out ao bravely a
few weeks ago, have given It up, discour
aged by the scattering of members or the
wanting of enthusiasm.
Practically everybody who belongs was
at the Field club yesterday. In fact, there
was a large gathering there before noon,
but by 4 o'clock the assembly had assumed
the proportions of & crowd and though
there was the hop In the evening, the mu
sic was the most pleasant feature to those
who care to move about when they dance.
No dinner parties were down on the pro
gram, though table d'hote dinner was
served to an unusually large number.
Out at the Country club the attendance
was also large, the members beginning to
assemble about noon. Those who enter
tained guests at dinner parties were: Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Colpetzer. four; Mr. and
Mrs. W. A. Redick, four; Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur Remington, four; Mrs. E. H.
Sprague. twelve; Mr. I.. O. Doup. four;
Mrs. McCord, five; Mr. and Mrs. Klrken
dall, nine; Mr. J. R. Lehmer, three; Mr.
A. O. Beeson, three; Mr. J. L. Kennedy,
eight; Dr. Bridges, seven; Mrs. Cowgllf,
three; Mr.'Aycrlgg. five: Mr. C. C. George,
four; Mr. II. T. Lemlst, three: Kt. F. T.
Hamilton, three; Mr. and Mrs. B. D. Wood,
six. There was also a party of sixteen
young people, congenial spirits. The floor
. was cleared at half after seven and the hop
In the evening largely attended.
A fresh' batch of engagement gossip has
; broken out again that may make October
as busy and Interesting a month as June has
' been at any rate It will keep people busy
. guessing as well as gossiping, for while
these several unannounced engagements
are facts all sure enough, nobody has been
told excepting a few of the girl friends,
a prospective sister-in-law, the business
partner of one of the men Interested and
a few others whose nearness to those con
'.. cerned entitles them to advance Informs-
tlon.
With the Increased membership of the
Field club, the directors have ' found It
necessary to adopt several new rules to
avoid the unpleasantness of crowd that
has been. caused by the overstepping of the
guest privilege and by the presence of the
Junior members.
V One the first and third Wednesdays only
of each month members mav invite not to
exceed two guests, residents of Omaha.
Members only will be admitted on other
dance nights.
2. No children will be allowed on the floor
of the pavilion on dines nights.
X Junior members shall not be allowed on
the flnor of the pavilion on regular dunce
nlrhts, except on the first and third
Wednesdays of each month.
4. Junior members and children shall not
be allowed the use of the bowling alleys
when full members are present desiring the
use thereof.
The board of directors explains that they
have been compelled to pass the above
rules owing to the crowded condition of the
pavilion and bowling alleys on those nights,
caused entirely by the presence ot junior
members, children and tho repeated pres
ence oftentimes at the Invitation of the
same member, of the wives and daughters
of residents of Omaha not members of the
club. It is added that the board does not
at this time care to place any restrictions
upon the power of the club members to ex
tend the privileges of the club to ladles
resident in Omaha, but urgently requests
that they cease to abuse this privilege, and
attention Is again called to the rule govern
ing guests on. entertainment days. Tickets
must be procured of secretary In advance,
at SO cents a piece, and no resident Is en
titled to guest privilege oftener than once
In three months.
One young matron has presented a rather
discouraging picture of one of the Minne
sota lakes that has for several seasons
past been the popular resort of a dozen
or more Omaha and Council Bluffs families.
"One might as well stay at home so far
as getting a rest or change Is concerned."
he said, "for there Is absolutely no change
and very little rest. One hears nothing
new excepting the yarns the men. have to
tell and they are not always new sees the
same people one has seen and entertained
all winter long and even has the same
children playing about the door that have
played in ones yard all winter at home.
Excuse me from this home colony arrange
ment at a summer resort."
And now some of our fashionables are
wishing they had not been so easily hyp
notised Into giving autograph testimonials
to plausible strangers. If they ouuld only
get those letters back they would have
more peace of mind.
A new Country club has Just been or
ganised at Lincoln with a membership of
IOC, which is to have a permanent ' home
and grounds and put on airs as the real
thing Immediately on the opening, a party
to occur within the coming week. The
president Is that persistent old golfer with
the melodious voice, 8. H. Burnham, who
will lead the chorus on the links or In the
Superfluous Hair
Removed by the New Principle.
A sure, quirk snd Inexpensive method of
destroying objectionable growths of hair
has at last been discovered. The new
principle. "De Miracle," was evolved
through many chemical experiments and a
thorough knowledge of tha productive con
ditions of the hali follicles.
It la better than electricity, because It
does not scar or produce a new growth.
Better than X-ray. because it dues not
burn, scar or paraylz the tissues of the
skin. Better than depilatories because It
Is not poisonous and dues not break the
hair off, thereby Increasing the growth.

to practice and put everything In running
order, we may expect an interchange of
contests with our Omsha Country club and
our Field club.
It Is a dull week In Omsha society Indeed
that develops nothing new and last week
produced a novelty In nsme If In no other
particular a "Lemonade." We have be
come wholly accustomed to teas and even
coffees, but a "lemonade" sounds a bit un
usual. It waa given one morning last week
for a visiting girl, to about a doxen other
young women and waa quite the same sort
of affair that has been given frequently
of late that, had It occurred later In the
day would have been- called an "after
noon." Mrs, Watson B. Smith' has announced
the engagement of her daughter. Miss
Louise Smith and Mr. William Dickey
Reed. '
A wedding of interest to many Omaha
friends Is that of Miss Kate Brown, daugh
ter of Colonel and Mrs. Justus Brown,
formerly stationed here, and Lieutenant
Oeorge Ruttledge Armstrong of the Sixth
United States infantry, which occurred
June 34 at the Brown home at Hackensack.

STORIES OF NEW-MADE KING
As m Yonth He Was Decidedly Top
lar Among; the Peeaats
of Haagary.
(Copyright. 1903, by Press Publishing Co.)
BUDAPKST. Hungary. July 4.-(New
iork World Cablegram Special Telegram.)
Servla's new king. Peter I. spent part
of his youth In Hungary, where his father
lived In exile. The family owned a pretty
estate at Bokszeg, In Arad county. Prince
Alexander managed It himself and was
even his own postmaster. He made young
Peter learn the Hungarian language, so
he could read the letters that came from
his illiterate shepherds and laborers smd
could write answers for them. Of course.
the family kept many horses and long
drives Into neighboring counties were an
everyday occurence. The father's great
friend at Grosswardln was Ymre De Ab-
ouye, who Is still alive and exceedingly
popular In these days, and he knows a lot
about King Peter. He was very fond of
the boy, and loved to tease him about the
Servian throne and his right to It. When
ever Peter asked for something Impossible
Abouye would say:
"You shall have It, my son, when you
are king of Servia."
Peter would answer: "It's all very well
for you to laugh, Abouye Bacsl, but I
shall be king of Servia some day."
When he grew up he was very fond of
society, and never missed an excursion or
ball. He prided himself on getting up
picnics and cotillions, although the young
women said, he had no talent for such
things. Once he arranged a sleighing party,
and had six pretty sleighs drawn by dogs
with tinkling bells, in Russian fashion. He
drove to the doors of the young noble
ladles of the neighborhood, but all refused
to trust themselves to Peter Karageorge
vltch. In a terrible rage he selected the
prettiest peasant girls, . packed them into
his sleigh and had an uproarious time with
them.
Another time as he was driving to Arad
he stopped In his father's harvest fields
and asked the girls what he could do for
them. They clamored for handkerchiefs
and ribbons. Peter returned with a bale
of goods and distributed silk handkerchiefs
and many-colored ribbons until every girl
had her share and was prepared to lay
her heart at the feet of the generous prince.
A story is current here Indicating that
the prefix Kara, meaning "black," in the
surname of the founder of the Karageorge-
vltch dynasty, was not given to him be
cause of his dark complexion. George
Petrovltch, the present king's grandfather,
was a shepherd in Servia. When his sister
married, he made her a present of several
bee hives. Her mother appropriated two of
them, which so enraged Peter, that he
picked one up and put it on his mother's
head. The latter cried out to her disre
spectful son, "Kara George" (black George)
meaning "wicked George," ana me name
stuck to him.
ADMIRATION FOR CONRIED
American Manager Seeares Great
Wagner Artists for Produc
tion of "Parsifal."
(Copyrighted, 1903, by Press Publishing Co.)
BERLIN, July I. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Conrled's
production of "Parsifal" In New York is
discussed with the liveliest Interest. In
musical circles ln Berlin, and th. enterpris
ing director of the Metropolitan opera house
excites great admiration for the way in
which he has Induced all the great Wagner
singers, despite "Frau Coslma" Wagner's
objection, to sign for the performance. The
final contracts have been signed and firms
in Coburg and Darmstadt have received
further large orders for Wagner decora
tions. Lohengrin's armour Is to be real silver.
A special artist has gone from Manhelm
to paint the neighborhood of Warburg for
"Tannhauser.
An extraordinary effort to realize th.
weird uncanny attractions of Walptirgls
night will be made tomorrow evening.
At the witches' fabled dancing ground on
the Brocken a great natural theater has
been hewn out of the pine forest and 1,000
spectators will sit on rocks and fallen
trunks of trees to watch the gruesome
scene. The rows of seats rise gradually
on the mountainside. The orchestra will
be Invisible, being sunk Into the ground
and covered with green branches.
Electric lights will flame from the tops
of the highest pines. The scenery will be
wild, with rocks and stunted, storm-beaten
pine trunks. There will be no curtain, as
the scene docs not change. Th. wings
will be the dense pine forests on either
side, into which the players will disappear.
Special mediaeval music has been written
for the play, and some of the best actors
ln Germany are to perform.

TWO FAMILIES OF MACKEYS CONFOUNDED
Mrs. Perry Belmont Is So Pleased
with Her London Reception that
She Talks of Restdlag
There.
(Copyright, 1903, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, July 4. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Lady Grey-
fc.gerton, who Is one of the popular hos
tesses ln London, will give a children's
cotillion In her fine home In Orosvsnor
square toward the end of this month. All
the younger Americans In town will Join
in a grand masquerade of flowers. Lady
Grey-Kgerton Is an American, the daugh
ter of the late Major J. Wayne Cutler. She
has three children, twin boys, 8 years old.
and a daughter aged 10.
A particularly bright American star In
the London firmament at this moment Is
Mrs. Frank J. Mackey. Her now famous
cotillion of last week cost 110,000. It was
a great triumph, and she can now com
mand "smart" society for her future en
tertainments. She Is a Minneapolis woman
and her husband calls Chicago his home.
Mr. Mackey, who made a great fortune
in Colorado three years ago and then went
to London to live. Is a typical mining man
In appearance. Mrs. Mackey Is vary hand
some, very charming, and the way she
drives a, four-ln-hand conquered the Brit
ish heart. Mr. Mackey's skill at polo got
him a ready entree Into the sporting so
ciety. They were known as Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Mackey when they first came to
London, but, "smart" society knows them
as Mr. and Mrs. Jay Mackey, since Mrs.
Arthur Paget took Mrs. Mackey up.
The four Americans whom Mrs. Arthur
Paget Is directing or, as they say here.
Tunning" In London society this year
are now known as "Mrs. Faget's four-ln-
hand." They are Mrs. F. Jay Mackey,
Mrs. Perry Belmont, Mrs. Bache and Mrs.
Frederick Bell.
Belmooti May Live ia London.
Mrs. Perry Belmont Is thinking ot set
tling ln London. She and her husband
have been taken up by the Rothschilds
and all the most exclusive people, and are
having a real good time. Mrs. Belmont
has become very popular, and as It Is said
that If she settles here she will entertain
lavishly, her success Is already assured.
Mrs. J. W. Mackay, who has been living
In strict seclusion at her home on Carlton
House Terrace for two weeks, has suffered
much annoyance and Inconvenience, owing
to being confused with Mrs. Jay Mackey.
There were troops of callers at Carlton
House Terrace, and Mrs. J. W. Mackay,
who sees nobody, had to put an announce
ment in the papers that she is not giving
any entertainments. She has benefited
considerably ln health from electric baths j
and Is going abroad again soon to renew
them.
Pauline As tor is very much with Mrs.
'Jay" Mackey, but on the whole is seen
less In society than she was last year.
William Waldorf Astor's retiring from
the social whirl continues to excite much
surprise. . He will not give a single party
nor a ooncert this season. He Is ln town
every day from 10 a. m. to 6 p. m. at his
artistic offices on the Thames Embank
ment, engaged on a novel, which he ex
pects will be the great work of his life.
The reason given by his friends for his
comparative seclusion is that his mind Is
occupied with his "magnum opus." He Is
fond of going from' Saturday to Monday
with one or two friends to the new place
he has bought. W. Waldorf jr.. Is ab
sorbed In motoring, horse racing and polo
playing.
Princess Hatzfeldt has taken July 18 for
her cotillion, which Is to be very extrava
gantly done, A small fortune will be spent
on favors and flowers. The dress the prin
cess will wear Is a' Worth gown, which
cost 13,000.
Vanderbllts Come to London.
Mr. and Mrs. W. K. Vanderbllt of New
York have been Invited by King Edward
to be present at all the official entertain
ments which have been arranged In honor
of President Loubet of France, who is to
visit London next week. The king learned
through United States Embassy Secretary
White that they would be here. The Van
derbllts arrived from Paris on Friday,
went to Clarldges and left to spend the
week end with Mr. and Mra Henry White
at the Whites' place, near. Beaconsfleld.
The Duchess of Marlborough, Mr. Van-
derbllt's daughter, called on her father
and his new wife at the hotel. It has
caused remark that she did not have them
at her party at Blenheim.
Cora, countess of Strafford (formerly
Mrs. Colgate), is far from well. She has
gone on a prolonged yachting cruise along
the Norway fiords. She still suffers from
her knees and has found It impossible to
face the exhausting gayetles of the Lon
don season. - But for her breakdown ln
health she would by all accounts have been
Invited to become one of the queen's ladles-
ln-waltlng.
Mrs. Oppenheim has gone to stay with
her mother. Mrs. Parkinson Sharp. She Is
much better and. has had a course of light
baths, now the erase with "smart" in
valided London.
Of the new century hostesses In London
ons of the most charming and successful
is tha youthful wife of Alfred Harms-
worth, the "Napoleon of journalism.' Her
beautiful house In Berkeley square has
seen some wonderful gatherings. During
the diamond jubilee season and the coro
nation festivities she entertained those
who were In a special sense the nation's
guests. She was one of the hostesses
at the recent Albert hall ball, and brought
a very dletlngushed party. Like many
modern women Mrs. Harmsworth has
many hobbles. Both her I-ondon house
nd her lovely country home are full of
curios collected by herself. Though a
first rate horsewoman she Is as great an
enthusiast In the cause of the horseless
carriage as Is her husband-
FIND DRAWINGS BY ANGELO
Forty Sheets of Them Discovered In
the I'AsI Gallery at Flor
ence. (Copyright, 190S. by Press Publishing Co.)
ROME, July 4. (New York World Cable
gramSpecial Telegram. A discovery of
extreme interest to the artistic world has
just been made In the Ufflil gallery at
Florence. This Is no less than several
rough sketches by Michael Angelo. The
paper used Is of precisely the same quality
as that he used for life drawings. Fight
of the sheets contain studies for figures In
the Slstlne chapel, such as the Christ of
The Last Judgment" and the Virgin
seated at His feet; the Creator in the pic
ture of "The Creation of Adam," several
torsos and legs, placed exactly at the same
ngle as those occupying the tympanum
and center of the chapel vault.
One of the sheets has one side the head
of a man. two halliards, a plan of a forti
fication and the autograph of the master;
on the other a cavalier riding at a gallop,
while a man seated behlna him Is falling
off. This is the horse of flt. Paul of the
Pauline chapel at the Vatican.
Other sketches are studies for the head

DREYFUS IS MUCH DEPRESSED
till Has Hopes, However, of a New
Trial and Revision of
Judgment.
(Copyright. 1903. by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, July 4. (New Tork World Cable
gramSpecial Telegram.) Alfred Dreyfus,
who Is now In Swltserland, Is discouraged
because his application for a new trial has
been refused. His friends In Paris say that
If another application is made It will be
based upon the fact that Weasel, who Is
confined In a French prison on a trivial
criminal charge, and who Is wanted In Ger
many, his extradition having been de
manded, is actually wanted for espionage,
Germany charging that ha sold military
secrets to Austria. Wessel may prove a
valuable witness for Dreyfus, as he declares
that Csnernuchl, who testified In the Drey
fus trial to having seen Dreyfus In close
association with German officers at a cer
tain point In Germany, waa elsewhere at
ihe time, as he saw him on the day ln
question at a point remote from the place
where Cenernucht alleges Dreyfus was.
Cxnernuchi's evidence having been actually
given at the trial. Labor!, counsel for Drey
fus, hopes that this later evidence would be
regarded as such.- "A new fact" Is what a
revision requires, although the suppressing
of General Pelllux's letter to Cavalgnac
was not so regarded, because no allusion to
that letter figured In the evidence given
against Dreyfus.

World Cablegram Special Telegram.) The
czar Is going to the desert of Sarow to at
tend the glorification of St. Seraphim, the
founder of the Dlwejew monastery, which

years ago, was in exactly the same state as

tacle, and bad a gorgeous coffin of gold
and precious stones made, while the czarina
made splendid coverings for the coffin with
her own hands, working precious stones I
into them.

roads passable and build hotels, boarding
houses and barracks In the desert, while

place to keep In order the crowds expected. !
