FRIDAY Mrs. Everett Smith entertains the Friday club. , SATURDAY Mrs. Herman Kountie s luncheon. 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. Batle.

The Invited guests were General and Mrs. Wlnt, Major and Mrs. Grey Zallnskl, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Rosewater, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Baldrlge, Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Kitchen, Major and Mrs. Brad Slaughter, Major and Mrs. R. S. Wilcox. Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Gibson, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Butler, Mr. and Mrs. George Kelly, Mr. and Mrs. E. D.

The first surprise Mr. Weller re ceived was In the afternoon at his office, when he was presented a bouquet of sixty one beautiful red roses, tied with a wide red ribbon, from his office force. 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.

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.. Cleveland object to our Incessant labor in nnj omie xor ine poor, tne unfortu nate and the outcast, securing for them Hhelter and food and emplovment and wnat ia vastly Detter than this, securing- .... ...u.,, buiwh mill eu respect ny means of our Insistence on direct personal association unoer tne great law of "No looking up and no looking down?" Add to this the defense of the legal and per sonal rights Of all eniDloved nrranna oJ 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 late or millions or her rellow country women and their children who hnve long been the helpless prev of the rreed the lust and the neglect of unb-tdled men. Final'v. do w do this "to retnllnfe on the men?" No doubt It must annear so to some men. hut they are net the kind of men whom we know. Does Mr. Cleve. land need to be told that we ncco-ripHsli all these things throueh our husbands, our nrotners and our sons? Does he know that one-fourth of us are teichers. and all the rest are homomakers: tbst a womm who did not have the sympathy of her hus band snd her entire fnmllv In such work as this would be strnnsre exception to the ordinnrv rid"? In short, does he know anything at nil shotit the organisation which he so shamefully trrtduees. and if so. where did be get "is Information? We n accustomed t" vilification from s cer tain nomeless publisher, but we did not expect such treatment from men. shadows the well known "Passion Play" 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 lake or natatorlum. It will offer a nat ural boat ride through artificially con structed suroundinKs. The special fen cures for today will be two well arranged conceits by the Cana dian band and a balloon ascension by J. 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 tensions made toward the establishment of a first class cafe, where all of the best eat ables may be had at popular prices. i I r" a H n MANAWA GETS READY TO OPEN Season at the Attractive Lake Resort Will Begin on Sunday fit. Beautiful Lake Manawp and Its pretty surrounding parks Indicate that the opm- ing of the summer season of water carnivals and outdoor amusements are about due. Scores of workmen are busy putting the boats and various features for the entertainment of the patrons of the resort In readiness for the opening on Sunday, May 28. Some Improvements that promise to meet with decided favor are being Installed by the Manawa Amuse ment company, lessees of the entire prem ises. The bathing Is one particular feature that Is going to receive considerable more attention than ever. At Manhattan beach number of modern devices to make fun and frolic for the bathing girl and her escort will be Installed, among them being an up-to-date slide, down which the bath ers may coast and a "Neptune wheel" that promises some fine sport for the boys. Another new departure will be the devel opment of the park on the south shore of the lake, adjoining the beach, where see-saws, swings, settees and other ac commodations for comfort and amusement will be placed and new beauties added In the way of a floral display. An even larger and finer floral display than last season will be made In the main park on the north shore of the lake, where numerous free attractions will be pre sented. Covalt's band has been engaged to give concerts evtfry afternoon nnd even ing. In the solo line Director Covalt la going to put forth every effort to add to his popularity and reputation, and has engaged a number of artists 'that have won a national standing. At the Casino a free show will be given every evening and every afternoon and evening outdoor acts will be presented free, and as there Is no admission charged at the gates these are calculated as an especially strong Inducement for the pleasure seeker. A fleet of five launches wtll run from the pavilion to the Kursaal, and a launch will bo kept In service for those who prefer to make an excursion around tho lake.
