last week was quiet almost to the extent
of being dull. There were a few large things,
but most of them were benefit affairs
hygienic luncheons and the like. Of course,
there was General and Mrs. Wlnt's re
ception at the Paxton hotel Wednesday
evening and. of course, that was brilliant,
as only military affairs can be, but asldo
from that, there was little of real conse
quence. This week Is not promising: not
even as much so as last week was, but
then the season Is over and one does not
expect much.
The opening of the new forty-acre golf
course was the occasion of a goodly gath
ering at the Country club yesterday aft
ernoon and evening. However, the dinner
Nat was not Increased as perceptibly as
mia-ht have been expected. There were
several parties, but few of any size. Mr.
and Mrs. W. B Meikle's dinner for Miss
Anals Bryne and Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Bee
son's dinner were the largest. The others
averaged three or four members each
Among those who entertained were: Mr,
and Mrs. Joseph Barker, Mr. and Mrs. W.
J. Foye, Mr. N. P. Dodge, Jr., Colonel and
Mrs. Pratt, Mr. and Mrs. Hostetter and
Mrs. Joslyn.
What Is the matter with the Omaha
girls? v One can't refrain from asking the
question, considering the rate at which
the local bachelors have been furnishing
the engagement announcements of late.
And this week brings another and to an
out-of-town girl. too. One by one the
eligible men are being won by visiting girls
until unless some Of the young women fol
low the example of their guests and go and
do likewise, the very young man is going
to be even more In demand before long
than he is now, or It may become neces
sary to take some of the old standbys
seriously.
The busybodles are saying that one of
the long overdue announcements Is to come
Very soon now possibly this week. Per
haps their suspicions have been aroused by
a number of prospective affairs In honor
of the bride-elect, and perhaps there Is
more substantial Indication that the wed
ding is not far off. There are certain ma
trona in society who say they have seen
part of the trousseau and that It Indicates
a June wedding; and besides this an of
ficer at army headquarters looked very
wise and declined to talk when beset with
Inquiries by a number of young women
Wednesday evening at the Wlnt reception
and this officer Is In a position to know
too.
It happened at the Boyd' Saturday even
lng. He sat midway of one of the long
rows in the parquet. To his left were sev
eral elderly people of portly proportions
and to his right a quartet of young women
-school teachers who have not yet grown
old In the service. He was alone and so
found It convenient to leave his seat after
the first act to chat with the occupants
of one of the boxes, and, looking first to
the right and then to the left, decided to
disturb the young women. He apologized
as they all stood up and unpinned their
hats from the back of the seats in front,
holding them aloft with one hand and
clutching their programs, operabags etc.
in the other as he crowded past. Just as
th curtain was rising again he returned
and somebody In the row Behind made
audible remarks about people who ought
to make a point of securing aisle .seats.
At the close of the second act he arose
again and crowded out past the teachers
and squeezing one of the spring hats dan
gerously as he passed. "Awfully sorry to
disturb," he said as he reached the aisle,
addressing the still standing occupant of
the end seat. "Don't mention it, she re
plied, smiling sweetly, "but won't you
please come back the other way?" He
did nut come back.
Few announcements have been received
with more sincere regret than that of the
transfer of Colonel Byrne to the Philip
pines, which was made last week. Colon'l
Byrne will sail the Inst of the month and
will be accompanied by his dnughter. Mrs.
Byrne will remain here with their three
sons until the close of school and will proi-
ably Join her husband In the fall. During
their station here the Byrnes hnve made
many friends. Miss Anals Byrne, their
daughter, was one of last winter's de
butantes and has been one of the most
popular young women in society. Colonel
Byrne and his daughters will leave for
the west very soon and several social af
fairs have been planned for Miss Byrne
before their departure.
One lady, never mind who, Invited a lot
of her friends to come over one afternoon
during the week. She laid speclil stress
on the request that each wear a sunbon-
not. The visitors arrived, each equipped
with a sunbonnet, and wondering what
was coming off. They were not left Ions
In uncertainty, for the hostess furnished
each with a long knife and led the way
to the lawn, where a busy half hour was
spent In uprooting dandelions.

A number of more or less sensational ac
counts have appeared recently In eastern
papers of plans of Nebraska club women
to secure a new trial or a pardon for Mrs.
Lena Llllle of David City, who Is now serv
ing a life sentence In the Nebraska peni
tentiary accused of the mirrder of her
husband. While it Is true that such an
effort Is being made and Investigation of
Mrs. Llllle's case Is Increasing the efforts
In her behalf. It Is not true that the Ne
braska Federation has taken up the mat
ter. In d'scuKslng the matter with The
Bee's club editor a few weeks ago, Mrs.
H. M. Bushnell, president of the state fed
eration, said that while she was thoroughly
In sympathy with the movement to secure
Mrs. Llllle a new trial, she did not approve
of its being taken up by the state federa
tion, because it Is a matter outside the
province of he organisation. Mrs. Bush
nell and other of the state officers, to
gether with some of the most prominent
club women of the state, have encouraged
Investigation. Some of the clubs have con
sulted attorneys and Judges and so far the
opinion seems unanimous that Mrs. Llllle
did not have a fair trial. Mrs. Bushnell
has, however, expressed no disapproval of
the Individual clubs doing all that they
can, although she has been so misunder
stood by some.
Among the measures passed by the last
Minnesota legislature was one making
fathers and mothers joint guardians of
their minor children. Minnesota la the
thirteenth state In the union to take this
action. As has been the case In nearly all
of the other states,' the law was passed at
the Instigation of the Woman Suffrage as
sociation. The girls' Industrial classes at Tenth
Street City mission closed their work for
the summer, with their annual celebration
yesterday afternoon. There was a program
including recitations, music and a silver
medal contest, which was followed by re
freshments. The day was also made the oc
casion of the opening of the play grounds
in the mission yard. Miss Magee has suc
ceeded in enlisting the Interest of friends
who have converted the yard into an alto
gether creditable play ground. A high
board fence has been built with enough
barbed wire at the top to effectively ex
clude intruders. Inside there are sandplles,
a swing, a croquet set, hammocks and
other devices for the children. Miss Magee
will superintend the grounds and hours
will be set for the children of different
ages.
In another part of the Issue of the
paper will be found a symposium of the
legislative work undertaken and accom
plished by the state federations of women's
clubs In the states whose legislatures con
vened during the winter.

SHAMROCKS BY THE KELLYS
Sons; Recital that Promises Both a
Musical nnd Literary
Treat.
The song recital, "Shamrocks," which
will be given by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
J. Kelly on Monday evening, May 29, is a
program made up of a number of tho
choicest gems of ancient and modern Irish
literature. Until recently there has been
little known In this country of the lit
erary history of Ireland, and In Omaha
Mr. Kelly has tried for some time to
draw attention to the artistic side of that
beautiful country, whilo Bishop Scan
nell in hl lecture has Interested many
people in the ancient history and litera
ture of the Celts. That there are many
people Interested In the subject of Ire
land Is proven by the fact that every oc
casion on which Irish songs or plays or
stories or lectures are presented Is the
sign for a large audience. The Young
Ladles' auxiliary of St. Mary's Avenue
Congregational church have undertaken
the management of the Kelly recital,
whlrh will take place in that church au
ditorium as stated above.
In connection with the program Mr.
Kelly will give some interesting unecdotes
about personalities of Irish prominence,
and also Incidents relating to some of
the songs that will be sung. This Is the
first time for the program to be given
in Its absolute entirety. Several of tho
songs have Just recently been uneurthed
by publishers, and a strange and peculiar
coincidence Is that while there Is no pub
Usher In Ireland bringing out t lie older
Irish songs, it Is being done by an English
firm which Is simply seeing a great oppor
tunlty.
Several songs will be entirely unknown
to the modern audlncn, and will be found
especially interesting, as they were dis
covered last summer in the old book ai
music shops of Dublin by Mr. Kelly. Every
song Is true to some distinctive trait of
the people and not a few have been se
cured at great trouble and cost, and will
be sung from manuscript.
Among all the replies and condemna
tion that have been hurled at Ex-President
Cleveland for his recent attack upon
women's clubs and especially the General
Federation, It has remained for a vice
president of that organization, through Its
official organ, the Federation Bulletin, to
find the really charitable explanation of
Air. Cleveland s very surprising outburst.
And it must be a little embarrassing to
Mr. Cleveland, to say the least, that he
is excused on the ground that he had in
nocently permitted himself to be used as
a tool In a very profitable as well as sen
sational advertising scheme. The Bulletin
says in part:
The truth Is that Mr. Cleveland has been
victimized by one of the most cunning of
i . v.u vnt-iv iur mis particu
lar publisher, but a new rni
Cleveland. He has accepted a brief from
a source which he should have scrutinized
much more closelv. When a rii.Mn...i.u.?
man undertakes to write about a subject
of which he knows nothing, the more dis
tinguished the man the more ridiculous
his failure. There are thousands of mefi
in this country who know the Woman's
club thoroughly, as Mr. Cleveland will
doubtless find out, but. not one of them
could be induced to say what he has
" nicy Know u is raise and Mr
Cleveland does not. ri..

to this the defense of the legal and per

the rights and wrongs which Ignorance
has brought upon them. We have In
stances In our federation where a single
club spends $4O,00f every year In the above
wirn atone, bui tar aoove these we prize
our long suit, In co-operation wHh others
for raising the shameful low limit for the
legal age of consent for girls which has
disgraced so many of our states. We are
not surprised that some men are opposed
to our organization or even to our very
existence, for this and other such reforms
have been long and bitterly opposed bv a
certain class or men. Hut when we find
our work publicly traduced as "virulent
club movements which hnve crossed the
even tenor of the ways of wominhood."
It seems to us a strange confession of
selfish short sightedness as to who reallv'
constituted the womanhood of our land.
evidently tne womanhood of the land In
this case stands for the old feudal idea of
the one sheltered life whose serene exist
ence must not be disturbed hv the bitter

lust and the neglect of unb-tdled men.

from every point of view.
The latest addition to the amusement
features called "Wonderland" was not quite
completed, but will be In a day or so. There
was enough, however, to be seen of It
to create much Interest, as It fills a mlss
Insr link to the resort's necessities In pro
viding a water construction In lieu of a

The special fen cures for today will be
two well arranged conceits by the Cana

Waldorf Hall. The many improvements
will also be worthy of sperlal Interest.
The one splendid Improvement worthy of
more than a passing mention Is the pre

An Attack of Croup Vt-arded Off.
"Our little girl, two and one-half years'
old, woke up coughing with the croup one
evening recently. We happened to have
some of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on
hand and gave her two doses of It. She
went back to sleep and woke up next morn
ing without a trace of cold. I, is certainly
a great medicine," says A. J. Luglnblll,
editor of Star, Villa Rica, Ga. An attaclc
of croup can always be warded off by giv
ing this remedy as soon a the croupy
cough appears. It has been in use for
many years and has never been known to
fall. It contains no opium or other harm
ful drug and may be given to the smallest
child with perfect confidence.

Manager Cole pushed the button which
put the wheels at Kruy park into motion
and started the resort upon Its fifth an
nual season. The entire place has prac
tically been made anew and the changes
for the better arc retlly astonishing. Every
detail has been so carefully looked after
that nothing has been left undone. Hun
dreds of new trees have been planted and
thousands of the rarest flowers adorn the
cleverly designed flower beds. Electric
lights have been added to what has here
toforo been adequate until now it Is really
brilliant and exceptionally pretty. Many
new walks ln- been laid out and the
reservation haj been thrown open and
settees provided ta enable nearly double
of the capacity to entertain the public.

rectlon of Bandmaster J. M. Finn, dis
