While there was nothing of sufficient
consequence last week to especially swell
th social chronicle, there was plenty go
ing on plenty for everybody. A usual
the visiting woman was largely re
sponsible for th round of affairs and
this week, though some of the out-of-town
guest will have departed, there will be
others to take their places and a round
, of afternoons and evening, theater, card
and luncheon parties have been planned
for them. Most notable of the affairs
planned for the week will be Mrs. Haller's
tea, for the debutantes. It will be given at
th1 Llnlnger home, and the young women
will all wear their coming-out gowns. And
than there will be the ocf.'ee party given

guests from Chloago, and Mrs. Charles

There I a very persistent rumor afloat
that -one of the popular army officers who
recently left Omaha for a new station has
left Ms heart behind, but has taken with
Mm .an exchange with which he Is fully
satisfied.
The fad of preserving secrecy concerning
th Itinerary of the wedding trfp promises
to prove an expensive aecret to a certain
young couple who were married In Omaha
recently. He Is an out-of-town man and
nephew of a very rich and very eccen
tric old English bachelor, who 4iaa but
one other heir, the la a niece of a prom
Inent Council Bluffs family, and was at
one . time a teacher In the city schools.
The day of the wedding Inquiry was made
by the groom's aunt, an elderly- maiden
sister of the English uncle and the other
heir regarding the proposed'ltlnerary. She
was laughingly told that "they really did
not know where they were gblng." Again
ahe questioned them and asked especially
If they expected to Include. New Tork
city,- adding that she had a friend there
that she thought they would be glad to
meet and that she knew was anxious to
meet them, but, again she was told that
they did not know where they would go.
They left that evening and went direct to
New-Tork and upon their return to their
future home a fortnight later, were sur
prised to find nothing, not even a con
gratulatory letter, from the English uncle.
A written Inquiry of the elderly aunt as
to whether or not she had heard from him
v brought in response a note stating that an
Inclosed letter would doubtless make every
thing clear to them;, that she was Just
leaving for England and wished them every
happiness. The inclosel letter proved to
be from the uncle, written from Nw Tork
city to hla aister and stating that he had
come ovtr from England to meet the
young couple In New York, but aa they
were ao evidently Indifferent to her and
her Vfrlenda.'t he thought It eenrcrty worth
while watting for them and returned home
within a week.

GOOD RESULTS FIRST WEEK
Federated Gospel Meeting gaceeaaf.l
4 Will Contlnae Threes,
at This Week. x
Tha first week of tha federated gospel
meetings In the Hanscom park district
under the auspices of four churches have
brought forth some very encouraging re
sults and the meetings are to be continued
for the coming week with a different loca
tion. Th services last Sunday were largely
attended and Rev. Henry Ostrom, the evan
gelist, seemed to gain a good hold on
hla congregation. Monday the attendance
fell off, a natural thing In tha first day of
weekday revival meetings. Since then,
however, there haa been an Increase nightly
until the congregation the latter part of
the week occupied all the available aeata
of the auditorium.
The interest In the meetings has Increased
proportionately. Rev. Mr. Ostrom has a
way of his own of extending the gospel In
vitation. His sermons through the first
week were directed to those whose faith
has grown cold. At the same time they
apply to those who have never professed
conversion and he brings in many asides
which drive tba points home to the latter
class. At the close of tha - meeting he
glvea an invitation to thoa who "feel that
they have become distant from God." He
walta a few minute for response to this
and then throws the Invitation open to
all. Every night since the middle of the
week there have been many responses to
both Invitations. "'
Tha muslo also haa been a very helpful
feature of the first week. This haa been
In charge of John Hlllls, whd travels with
Mr. .OBtrora. Mr. Hlllls is a large, whole
souled man, with a sympathetic voice. Ha
leads a choir of about fifty voices. Mrs.
Andrews has presided at the pipe organ
and, a cornet and a violin have also aa-
alsled materially.
Beginning today the night meetings are
to be held in the St. Mary's Avenue Con
gregational church at Twenty-seventh
atreet and St. Mary'a avenue. The organ
and a choir also will assist In the muslo
there. The weekday afternoon meetings
are to be, held In the Westminster Presby-
terlan church at 1 oclocn. These meet
ings partake largely of the nature of Bible
studies and have proved very helpful in
the week that has passed. Ths Sunday
afternoon meeting at S o'clock la to ba
held In tha Hanacom Park Methodist
church.

desirable for a woman's convention. Being
an entirely detached building, tne nan can
be emptied in a few seconds through the
numerous exits that render It one of the
safest auditoriums in the country.
