Aside front tbe weddings lor of eoarse
weddings are always considered a bo re and
, apart from everything else society is look
ing forward to little but out-of-door affairs
this summer. The clubs, Manawa, such
roads and streets where eutomoblllng la
permitted, horseback riding, the track and
the ball game, each and all promise to
attract their share of devotees. The base
ball season has opened especially promising
for women and Thursday afternoon, ladles'
day, found fully 00 women In the grand
stand, all unmindful of tbe anything but
pleasant day. y
As for the Field and Country clubs, every
body knows what to expect there, especially
while the season Is new. The women are
out in generous attendance. There ia to be
a weekly tournament for the women at
the Country club, the season opening last
Wednesday. . Tbe game proved rather a
disappointment, for the greens were not in
the best condition and tha score ran higher
than usual as a result.
The boat races at Manawa present an
specialty attractive feature, particularly
to the , younger women. The regatta
scheduled for June 23, to be participated in
by the Manawa club and the Lotus club
of St. Joseph, ia among the most antici
pated events planned for the summer and
promises to call out one of tbe largest
fashionable gatherings. Most of the college
folk will be back by that time, so, of course,
enthusiasm and an altogether gay time is
expected. In the meantime there will be a
series of preliminary races between the
PJcklnson and Stevens boats, the result of
which will be watched with interest.
Automoblllng promises to be a popular
diversion among the fashionable this ium
me and with few exceptions the families
trhoss summer residences are In the vicinity
of Omaha will use them as a means, of
transportation to and from the city. The
Indications are that horseback riding will
be 'as popular as It was last year. There
Is talk of tbe riding club being reorganised
and that it will be supplemented by several
from Fort Crook and the canters so much
enjoyed last spring and fall will be resumed.
But to go back to tbe weddings. There
are to be plenty . of them next month.
Several prominent families will figure and
most of them will be Interesting if not
Urge. In fact, there Is litUe talk of large
church weddings, such as society has had
during tbe last few seasons, and not a
little of the1 speculation Is being directed
to "who will be asked."

OFFICIALS DENY THE STORY
Northwester Most Say Wea.su with
Child Was Not Pat Off Their
Train.
The Northwestern passsnger department
denies ths story printed In the local papers
a few days ago to tbe effect that Emma
Smith, a passenger on one of the trains of
tha company, was put off by ths conductor
and forced to walk a dlatanoe of ten miles,
carrying a small child, on account of hav
ing lost her Uokst A Northwestern offi
cial In speaking of the matter said:
"Ths story told by the woman here must
be a pure fabrication, for the reason that
no passenger Was put off of our train No.
S last Saturday and no such tioket as the
one described was sold on that date or any
date near to a woman answering the de
scription of Mrs. Smith. Ths ticket is al
leged to havs read from Chicago to Bil
lings, via Crawford. About ons week ago a
woman with a S-year-old child got off of
train No. 11- at Missouri Valley, where she
was taken care of by the authorities and
furnished transportation to Council Bluffa
She ssid nothing to ths authorities about
being put off of any trsln and nothing was
mentioned of the matter until she got to
Omaha, where she evidently told a story
which was mads up of whols cloth."

By far the most absorbing topic among
club women Just now la the biennial con
vention of the General Federation of
Woman's Clubs, which opens Tuesday at
St Louis. From all quarters oomes the
announcement of the largest delegations
ever sent and this, together with the prom
ise of an exceptional program, bids f'Jr
to maks the women who stay at home re
gret It It Is not known definitely Just
what the Nebraska delegation will num.
ber. The women will not all go together
and the largest party will leave Omaha
Monday evening via the Burlington. This
will Include the Omaha, Lincoln and some
other women. The personnel of the party
so far as known is: Mmes. F. H. Cole. L
R. Andrew, Edward Johnson, George Til
den, Charles Rosewater, H. S. Jaynea, 8
R. Towns, R. E. McKelvy and Draper
Smith, all of whom with the exception of
the last two will represent the Omaha
Woman's club. Mra McKelvy la one of
the state delegates. Mra Belle Stouten
borough of Piatt mouth, Mra E. E. Mc
Nlsh of Fremont Mmes. Starrett Cook,
Rogers, Harpham of Lincoln, and Tile of
Sioux City. Beialdes ths state federation,
more of the Individual clubs than ever
before will send representatlvea Unlike
the two biennials that have preceded it
the St Louis meeting will carry with It
no particular Issue; that Is. unless some
thing develops after tbe meeting has been
called. It has been suggested by those
who ought to know that ths Mormon ques
tion might develop a troublesome side and
still other fear that the advocates of ths
General Federation's support of soms meas
ure providing for a uniform divorce law
may occasion trouble. So far as Is defin
itely known the only thing that the women
will be urged to concentrate upon during
the next two years will be the report of
the industrial committee in behalf of tbe
working children. That the women of Ne
braska are heartily In favor of any meas
ure of this kind Is very wsll known. They
are at present making an effort to secure
a Juvenile court system that, with what
they havs already secured In the way of a
compulsory education law, should mean
much to the children of the stats.
It Is rumored that tbe Denver women
will go to St Louis this week, 160 strong.
and such a delegation, supplemented by
the other club women of Colorado, will
mean a formidable leavening influence If
nothing more, and everybody knows that
Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker Is a candidate
this year for the presidency of the General
Federation. Mrs. Decker's refusal of the
presidency at Los Angeles two years ago.
It Is said, has cost her, forever, the sup
port of many who on that occasion and for
four years previous had been her enthusi
astic advocates, but even though that may
be the case Mrs. Decker still has a host of
friends sufficient to elect her. It is thought,
if she wishes tbe office. Her opponents are
beginning to point out that she Is a suf
fragist a Colorado politician, but the
women who know Mrs. Decker and who
appreciate the value of a large experience
combined with ability have no fears that
she would Inject her personal convictions
Into the policy of the General Federation
if she was elected Its president And now,
at the eleventh hour, there comes another
name Into tbe list of presidential possibili
ties, that of Mrs. Emma Fox of Detroit,
who so ably served the General Federation
as recording secretary during Mra Lowe's
administration and who at the last biennial
was elected second vice president because
It was felt that the governing body of the
federation could not spar the council of
her who has served It so long and so well.
Mrs. Fox is not announced a a candidate,
but the fact that she is not makes her
all the more formidable to those who know.
So far her consideration is an on the quiet;
it comes from Denver and California and
from 6t Louis, not as of a candidate, but
rather as ons against whose popularity
their respective candidates must be forti
fied. V
At the recent national meeting of ' the
Daughters of the Revolution, held -in Bos

PARIS, May ll-The Foreign office here
Is without additional details of the wide
spread devastation wrought by Turkish
troops in the Sassoun district of Armenia.
Tbe French press advices giving the num
ber of killed as 100 on each side Is consid
ered to be far short of showing ths magni
tude of tbe affair.
The burned villages occupied the most
Inaccessible portion of the empire and offi
cials hero say it will take eight days on
horseback for the French, British and Rus
sian consuls to complete their Journey to
the scene of the destruction. Then It will
take another eight dsys for tbe return, be
sides sight or ten days spent In conducting
the Investigations in the Sassoun district
Therefore tbe Foreign office says it prob
ably will be Impossible t'o obtain details
before a month has elapsed.
The scene of the destruction Is in a val
ley surrounded by mountains. The Inhabi
tants are marauding tribes which have
constantly agitated against Turkey. The
sultan, therefore, wished to exterminate
this disorderly element but ' while not
countenancing Armenian agitation the sig
natories of the Berlin treaty have strongly
disapproved of Turkey's methods in crush
ing agitation.
It Is the belief In official circles that the
International Armenian committees will use
the new outrages as a lever to Induce tho
civilised powers to units In decisive action
against Turkey.
MATCH SETS BALLOON ON FIRE

PARIS, May 14. (ISVw York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) The lighting
of a match In a house caused tha remarka
ble balloon accident here Thursday, meager
particulars of which were cabled at the
time. The flaming gas set Are to two
houses and a score or' more of persons
were scorched.
It was ascension day of the members of
the Aero club, and In the streets were
thousands of persons watching the evolu
tlons of a huge spherical balloon hovering
over the city, waiting for the right oppor
tunity to make a descent in a safe spot.
About noon the balloon was over the Ave
nue Daufesnil, a spacious thorougfare ad
mirably adapted for a descent The
aeronaut In charge of the machine seized
the opportunity and the balloon dropped
until the drag ropes trailed In among the
spectators. A score or more men seized
the ropes and tugged at them with might
and main, but they were not equal to the
task, and the baloon drifted on In the
strong wind. Finally it settled immediately
over a narrow little street, not more than
an alley except in name. Again a crowd
of men seized the ropes and, despite the
frantic shouts of the aeronaut to let go,
they held on and the balloon was dragged
down. To save the machine the aeronaut
began to deflate It and the gas filled the
narrow street In a moment. Suddenly
there was a flash' and the balloon sank
down in the street In flames.
Some one In one of the buildings between
which It won dragged had struck a match
and the gas was Ignited. The party of
aeronauts had to Jump out of the basket
to save themselves.
The bouses on each side caught fire and
before the flames could be extinguished at
least twenty persons were Injured. It wan
the merest luck that no lives were lost

PARIS, May 14.-(New York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) That was a
remarkable scene at the St. Lnzarre rail
way station yesterday that ended In a
rapturous hug and kiss on the part of a
young man and an American girl. Jist
as the train for Cherbourg was pulling out
the young man ran up to the last car, at
the door of a compartment of which stood
the girl, stylishly gowned, her face
wreathed In smllea
"Won't you say goodbye to me?" cried
the young man.
"Gladly, my boy," replied the girl In
shrill soprnno.
She held her hand out of the open win
dow and the man grasped it as he ran
alongside of the moving train. With a
powerful grip he pulled her out on the
platform and they rolled over two or three
times. The girl got up In tears and In
dignation. Then she got a look at the
swain and saw something in his eyes.
"Why, Pick, you love me," she exclaimed
gleefully, and she tumbled into his arms
with all the emphasis in her. That ended
the episode, so far as the public was con
cerned, for the twain disappeared In a
waiting carriage, and there Is reason to
believe that, there will soon be work for a
parson In their behalf. .
The girl is said to be one of Chicago's

TOLSTOY PRAISES GARRISON
Writes Preface to History of Life
f the Famous Aboli
tionist. i
(Copyright. 1904. by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDOJf. May 14.-(New York Wrorld
Cablegram Special Telegram.) A life of
William Lloyd Garrison, the famous aboli
tionist, has been written by the noted Rus
sian philosopher, W. M. Teherkoff, and
will soon see the light In English. Leo
Ttlstoy has written a remarkable preface
to the work, because, as he says, Garrison
was the first to discover the truth. He
adds that Garrison denied to society the
right to compel a r.-.nn to perform any

human progress.
