CLUBS WELL ATTENDED SUNDAY

of Incoanlaerate Trralmrnt by

or Fail to fla Paoetu).
V I li her drawing room closed and thing
'Vf.v. ltd" for the lummer and the time for
relaxation at hand, the fashionable hostess
at leant haa time for reflection upon the
strenuous season Just part and Ipctdert
ally, she In saying aome very uncompli
mentary things about aome other woman,
who constitute a substantial proportion of
the local "four hundred." So general is
thla complaint and so flagrant the griev
ance that several hoetesses, who had con
tributed conspicuously to the hrllllont wln-
just closed, are promising themselves
and cthera that they are "through for a
good long while." Wherever a haif doien
women gather together the subject Is sure
to come up and theTe Is always the tame
Indignant complaint of unpardonable dis
courtesy and lack of consideration for a
tioetsna.
An Invitation seems to entail no obliga
tion whatever nowadays according to those
disgusted ones and even the formal "R. 3.
V. P." of "Please Reply" often fall to
bring any response. An even more ex
asperating breach, however, and ona ap
pallingly prevalent It seems, has been that
of accepting an Invitation for luncheon or
bridge, and then falling to materialise for
from one-hjilf to three-quarters of an hour
after the appointed hour and sometimes
falling to appear at all. Naturally such
carelessness has been counted something
Tnora than discourtesy. Tht hostess of a
rwent house musicals, one of the largest
and smartest things of the spring, com
plains that out of a guest list of about 200,
sixty had failed to reply one way or tho
ther by the morning of the day for tho
entertainment, forcing her to use the tele
phone for several hours In order to esti
mate something of the number for which
he would have to prepare. On another
occasion, a bridge party given for a pop
ular visiting girl, for which the cards read
"i o'clock," It was nearer 3 o'clock before
a sufficient number had arrived to make H
possible to begin the game. It I no un
common think for plate cardu to go un
claimed at large luncheons, and regarding
this, one hostess remarked recently with a
tight little smile: "I make It a practice
nowadays when I get no response, to place
the name card and then allow It to He at
the vacant plate. In this way my other
guests can at least sympathise with me
in my embarrassment."

LIFE IN A PERSIAN HAREM
Observations
Marat
of Princess
on Visit to
Sblraa.
Laden
Princess Luclen Murat has Just com
pleted a long series of wanderings through
India and Persia. On her way home she
paused at Constantinople long enough to
give a detailed account of a visit she mado
to the harem of tha Persian governor at
Shiraz.
"We had spent ten days In a caravan
Journey across the desert." said sha,
"scorched by day and frozen by night,
when at last Shiraz became visible far
across the plain seemingly steeped In a blue
haze, out of which the minarets and cupola
of the mosques glittered Ilka gold In tha
sun.
"As we rode Into tha city everyone stared
at me the unveiled woman. Tha streets
of the City of Roses are narrow Bnd hard
to navigate. It was with difficulty that
we reached the palace of Abdul ul Sultan.
"As the gates opened a whole flock of
servants dashed out. They surrounded me
at once and led me along a marvellous al
ley shaded with cypresj trees. We crossed
a miniature canal, whose limpid waters
flowed through a channel lined with blue
tiles. Wonderful flowers from peonies to
Irises bordered It and tha breath of wild
almoqd filled tha air, ... ..; , ,
"Abdul ul Sultan received me In a room
set apart for women. He poured a flood of
compliments over ma like a rain of flowers.
"Ha said ha could not refrain from dis
tinguishing by a personal reception the
first French woman who had ever set foot
In his palace. It really was contrary to
Persian manners for ma to bo there at all,
but he undertook to conduct me to tha
Princess DJarmlleh.
"We walked through a beautiful colonade
which connected the palace with tha
woman's pavilion. This led to a great
room, the roof of which was supported, by
beautifully sculptured marble pillars.
"The walls were adorned with great mlr
rows and the floor was a mosaic of glazed
tiles. Here were gathered all the women
of the harem, ladles and slaves alike. All
were clad in the sable draperies which Per
sians still wear In mourning for Hussein,
the son of All, the founder of tha Shllte
sect of Mohammedans.
"The dark stuff threw the fresh, rosy
faces of the girls Into relief and added to
their beauty. But the costly Jewels which
glittered In tbeli garments seemed .to me
to weigh heavily on them, and the dark
ening of their eyebrows with kohl seemed
to me to give their childish faces a hard
and obstinate expression. Only their dark,
melting eyes, veiled with long lashes,
seemed to me to reflect their melancholy
Uvea of repression.

wooden settes and copper colored slaves
distributed Persian dainties. There were
Ices and sherbet and In front of each of the
ladles an exquisite tea machine of silver
was placed. These had models of Per
se polls moulded on them In high relief.
"Iellclous bonbons were passed around
which left a delicate, faint flavor of roses
on the Hps. There were also splendid
purple grapes and pomegranates which
seemed to be filled with rubies when cut
The slaves peeled little pale yellow oranges
for us with their delicate hands.
"The expression on the Princess' face
was of restrained grief. In vain sha tried
to control herself and conceal her agony.
Tears ran down her cheeks and mingled
with the diamonds In her gown as she
turned her welllke ayes on her husband.
"I-ater I learned the explanation of her
strange conduct. She had failed In the
chief duty of a Persian wife. She was
childless and her husband had determined
to take another wife.
"The announcement had been made to
her only that morning and she knew that
her rival was already chosen and only
waiting to taka her place In her husband's
favor. Even not knowing the sad story, I
longed to say a word of comfort to her;
but how could I In that throng, with tha
guardians of the harem watching?
"Persian treatment of women In heart
less. On a visit to the Princess Mah
Hultan I noticed that she was lame. Later
I inquired as to the cause. I was told that
some years before she had asked her
husband's permission to attend tha mar
riage of a friend of her childhood.
"He refused It, but she thought she
could go surreptitiously and her absence
from the harem for a few hours would not
be noticed. Unfortunately her husband
made an unexpected visit to tha harem
and discovered her absence. On her re
turn there was a terrific scene, which her
husband ended by firing a pistol at her.
"It was hours before the eunuchs and
women ventured Into tha princess' room.
They found her Insensible. The bullet
had broken her thigh bone. Bhe recovered,
but her leg was shortened)
"I though these Perslon women's lot
was most tragic. But as I tried to condole
with soma of them In their gilded cages
the answer was always one of commisera
tion for me. One of them put It this way:
'You poor European sisters, how we pity
you that you have to see men the whole
day long. How much happier wa are In
Persia since wa sea them only a little
while.' "
PACKING THEJPICNIC LUNCH
SuKarestlona for Ready Prepared and
Easily Carried rnaredlenta
for Basket.
In these advanced days of prepared foods
tha picnic hamper Is a veritable joy to tha
gourmet who combines a lova of time spent
lazily out of doors with a keen appreciation
of delicious provisions with which to satisfy
the appetite stimulated by the trip to reach
the desired spot and Increased by the open
air activities attendant upon getting all
things ready for the repast. Half roast
chickens, for example, boned chicken and
tongue are all perfectly prepared, and there
are also all manner of pates, such as
grouse and other game wild duck, phea
sant, the well known . de-fole gras and all
kinds of potted meats, with which the sand
wiches can be spread Just before eating if
preferred. For this truffled chicken and
ham-rilettes make a very nice change from
tha ordinary.
Small, square willow baskets of fresh
figs, each wrapped separately and In neat
little rows, are tempting for a contribution
to tho sweets, as are tha apricot wafers,
stuffed dates and Wetsbaden stuffed prunes.
With the cheese, of which the Canadian
club In small jars Is the most sensible to
carry, there Is a very satisfactory Browns
ville wafer, with Just a few grains of crys
tallized salt 00 their glased brown tops
which makes the cheese taste better than
usual.
For those who do not care for the pic
turesque trouble of making the fire there Is
a self-heating canned food, which is made
in double can form, tha Inner one contain
ing the food hermetically sealed, the heat
ing material being all In the outer can.
Tha addition of a little cold water In tha
outer can Immediately creates an intense
heat, without smoke, flames, fumes or odor,
and In five or six minutes tha soup, pud
ding or whatever food has been brought In
this form Is steaming hot and ready to
serve. The picnic has become an important
factor In the social world In these days of
motoring and Is In fact an adjunct to al
most every run made in good weather; the
finding of pleasant places and exploration
being the enthusiastic ambition. A menu
suggested for a luncheon that Is substan
tial, but not too heavy, Includes some home
made bouillon which may be brought In
the Thermos bottle that every luncheon
basket now boasts (these bottles keeping
fluids for hours at tha sama temperature)
sandwiches of chopped cress, or chopped
peppers combined with lettuce and mayon
naise between brown bread of thinnest cut
ting; cavalre. grated cheese and chopped
nuts with mayonnaise and lettuce and
again brown bread, and soma sandwiches
of a game pate, and others of sliced tongue.
With these ona can have cold chicken, a
salad and soma cold Virginia ham and a
dessert of cut up fruits with Jamaica rum
and augar which can be made In a few
moments, or else brought tn glass Jars.
TRIMMING THE SUMMER GOWN
Sarprlsea Still Lark In tha Detail
Coaoernlna- the Rldl'as
Habit.
I'ndersleeves and gulmpe are Important
and almost Inevitable features of the
fashionable frock and, unfortunately, are
details concerning which the average dress
maker displays absolutely no Imagination.
The French makers Introduce delightfully
original touches upon tha transparent or
semi-transparent gulmpes which mak this
season's frock so becoming. Cleverly ma
nipulated shirrings or cordlngs. skilfully In
set lace, touches of hsnd embroidery In
color or gold or silver upon tha lace of
the gulmpe, minute bows set down tha
gulmpe front. Jaunty little cravat effects
all these ara used to relieve the plainness
of the gulmpa or to hide the Joining Una
of the collar. A bit of hand embroidery
sketchily reinforcing the design of lace
gives an effect or elegant smartness quite
crut of proportion to the amount of labor
expended upon It, and this Is particularly
true of the filet lace, which In IU fine qual
ities Is perhaps the most popular lace of
the season.
Ready-made riding clothes sr. now of
fered In great variety and exoeltent quality,
and many women buy these Inexpensive
habits for summer wear evea though they
may prefer a made-to-order habit for park
use. The ready-made hablta are furnished
In paddock, semi-fitting and Norfolk coat
styles and In both cross-ssddle and side,
saddle akh-ts of whipcord, cheviot, khaki
and linen for summer wear with shirt

SERMON TO CLAN GORDON
Be?. A. S. C. Clarke Treacher to
Brother Member.
ATTEND LOWE AVENUE IN BODY
Jeaalo Kennedy, I.lttle Daughter of
tha Chief, Sings "My Ala
Conatrle" la Affecting
Manner.
Services at Lows Avenue Presbyterian
church Sunday were especially designed for
Clan Gordon, Order of Scottish Clans, of
which tha pastor, Rev. A. 8. C. Clarke, Is
a member and who was asked to preach
the annual sermon for the clan.
One of the Interesting features of the
service was a song by Jeanlo Kennedy, the
-year-old daughter of Chief Kennedy of
the clan, who sang "My Atn Countrle" In
a manner to bring tears to the eyes of
many of tha auditors. The little lassie has
a clear trrble and an enunciation which Is
remarkable.
The text from which the sermon was
preached was Galatlans, vl:2. The minister
said. In part:
"I think that to the average mind the
Impression must come that God has so ar
ranged the universe that all parts are help
ful to each other. Service Is the law of
being. Nothing lives or exists for Itself
alone. We are on this terrestrial ball and
all about us ara millions upon millions of
similar balls, many, many times lsrger then
this, each one moving In Its own orbit snd
helping the others to keep their place. Ood
has so arranged It that each Is essential
to tha life of the others.
"On earth the same law applies. The
mineral kingdom ministers to the tr.inhi
the vegetable to the
man. and the highest mlnlstrv nf all i th.
ministry of man to man. 'Service' la writ
large over all creation. Burns spoke of
'man's Inhumanity to man.' but there i
another thing. The world la a good world
because Ood made It. No one -n mn
abroad on such a bright June day as this
without being stirred by the spirit of Ood
through the beauty of his creation without
being filled with the Joy of being. Man's
humanity to man la a great thing and there
is a great deal of It. The love and care of
man for his fellow la Increasing.
"This Is also coming to be the feeling
with regard to nations. The time Is not
here, and it should not be here, when a
man does not feel a love for his native
land which Is somewhat akin to that love
which a man bears for his home and
mother, but the days ara twist when rsrr
could call the residents of all other nations
barbarians. At the Acropolis Paul preached
the brotherhood of man. Commercial life
today Is based on the Idea of Interdepend
ence of nations, and wa especially need to
realize the Interdependence of man to man.
Selfishness runs athwart the divine plan
and purpose."
Tha speaker then referred to the work
of Clan Gordon, paying high tribute to Its
objects and the manner In which they were
carried out. At the close of the sermon
Chaplain Trench of the order spoke briefly,
thanking the pastor for the sermon and
telling of the early efforts to establish
Lowe Avenue church.
LIFE IS O.fB UPWARD CLIMB
Realisation of Grand Th lnr at Top,
Says Rav. J, fc. Hnmmon.
Tha services at Kountxe Memorial church
Sunday morning were Interesting. Miss
Florence Da Graff's solo. "Oh God, Ba
Merciful." was excellent in its strength and
beauty. & 8. Hamilton's solo, "The HomXs
land." was ona of his best efforts. Rev.
J. B. Hummon, the pastor, preached on
"Tha Important Calculation."
"Life Is an upward climb, but at the hill
top la a realisation of grand and harmonl-
I ous things. Human suffering Is a reality.
noi a aeiusinn. unnstlans know they must
endure hardness, as soldiers must suffer,
though they may ba told there la no such
thing. We all know better. Paul aald ha
suffered, but was not cast down. We shall
come to glory through suffering. Our groat
exemplar, Christ, suffered, agonized on the
cross . Our sins could be expiated only
through his sorrows and death, but he re
ceived his reward. They that mourn shall
be comforted,' and so we have In our text.
Our suffering is not to be compared with
the glory that shall be revealed In us."
David Cole gave an Interesting history of
the Toung Men'J Christian association cause
tn this city, and while asking the co-operation
of those present, gave several reasons
for tha presence and work of the Institu
tion. He said:
"1. Tha association Is the child of the
church, performing to a large extent the
Institutional work of the church.
"8. It Is a 'charity factory for those who
wish Its assistance.
"8 It offers a welcome to tha homeless
young man; a comfortable place of resort
for reading, recreation and development.
"4. It Is open day and evening all the
year.
"5. It seeks to Interest tha homeless
stranger young man desiring home or
friends.
"6. Membership Is open to all, from IS
years to 112.
'7. The building is a grand one, a delight
to visit; a monument of patience and
effort."
FOl'SDEH OF BARACA MOVEMENT
Marshall A. Hndsoa Speaks at First
Congregational Chnrrh.
Marshall A. Hudson of Syracuse, N. T.,
founder of the Baraca and Phllethea Blblo
class movement and International president
of the Baraca society, spoke Sunday even
ing at the First Congregational church
upon the purposes and origin of the move
ment. Judge Howard Kennedy presided at
the meeting and Introduced the speaker.
Mr. Hudson is on his return from the
Nebraska Sunday School association con
vention at Hastings, where he was one
of the leading speakers. He said:
"The Baraca movement grew out of a
proposition of how to improve tho existing
organization and purpose of the BlWe dsns.
There was no theory back of the mntter
for I had not been educated on thenretlrol
lines and realised that the successful Bible
class should ba conducted along business
lines. The motto of the Baraca movement
Is 'We do things through Christ' and
Toung men at work for young men, all
standing for tha Bible and for the Blblo
school.' This Is tha motto of the i(000
members of the Baraca and Phllethea
organizations. The Phlethea being the
young women's organlzstlon on Identically
the same lines.
"We sre organised In every state In tho
union and throughout all the world. I
bave a vision of possibilities nf what can
be dona for the 18,000 young men here In
Omaha who are wholly lutslde the
church and Sunday school. The secret of
the Baraca Idea la putting young men to
work."

FIGHT ON HOUSE OF LORDS
Battle to Eliminate It as lawmaking
Factor Begins la London
Thla Weak.
LONDON, June U. The consideration of
the resolutions which Premier Campboll
Bannerman will move In the House of
Commons tomorrow for the clipping of the
wings of the House of Lords begins what
will llkery develop one of the greatest po
litical Issues In the history of Great Brit
ain. The premier calls the resolution "the
preface to the volume." It Is as fol
lows: '
"That In order to give effect to the will
of the people as expressed by their elected
representatives, It Is necessary that this
house should be so restricted by law as to
secure that within the limits of a single
Parliament the final decision of the House
of Commons shall prevail."
The government proposes only to adopt
this resolution this session. It had ex
pected to carry the Irish council bills In
the commons and have the lords reject It,
when It would have been provided with a
speciflo grievance, which would have paved
the way for a bill carrying Into effect the
curtailment of the power of the House of
Lords.
It Is foreseen, however, that the lords
probably will veto some popular measures
next session. Then the government will
try to arouse public opinion to support Its
program so strongly that the House of

H. ALBERT COES TO PARIS
Leader of Wine Growers Makes Call
on Premier Clemenceau.

PARIS, Juna 24. Tha most Interesting
event yesterday In connection with the wine
(rowers' revolt was the visit of Marcelln
Albert, the leader of the disturbing element
In the south of France, to Premier Clem
enceau. This morning the man for whom
the police and troops vainly hava been
scouring the country for a fortnight, ap
peared without warning at the Ministry of
tha Interior. He wore the simple garb of
a southern peasant. Tha cotton shirt, the
silk handkerchief around his neck and the
carpetbag in his hand aroused his suspi
cion of the corps of detectives now con
stantly guarding tha premier. But when
he had established his Identity Albert was
sdtnltted to the presence of Clemenceau,
with whom he had a fifteen-minute talk.
A semi-official account of the Interview
says that the premier used extremely strong
language, virtually reproaching his visitor
with tha responsibility of all that has hap
pened In the south the refusal to pay
taxes, tha strike, tha resignation of tha
municipality officials and the bloodshed
thst has occurred, everything. In fact.
M. Albert Is represented as having been
overcome with contrition, bursting into
tears and asking the premier how he could
make atonement, to which M. Clemenceau
replied:
"Give yourself up to the law and usa
your Influence with your countrymen to re
turn to lawful ways."
Albert He tarns Honth.
Subsequently Albert declined to reveal
anything that had occurred during his con
ference with the premier, declaring that he
had given his word to M. Clemenceau not
to do so. He said, however, that he was
leaving Immediately for the south, where
ha Intended to "do his duty." This leads
to the presumption that an understanding
between himself and the premier was
reached. It Is believed that M. Albert
pleaded tha cause of M. Ferroul, the ex
mayor of Narbonne, and his comrades on
tha Argellleres committee who sre under
arrest, but upon this point M. Clemenceau
remains obdurate. He again authorised the
statement that the government could not
Interfere with tha courts.
The release and Immunity from prosecu
tion of those now under lock and key
seems at this time to be the principal de
mand of the wine growers upon tho Iftov
ernment. The power which M. Alberts'
comrades exercise, even from the Inside
of the prison, Is evidenced from tha fact
that M. Leulllere' friends were obliged to
go to them to secure an order of release
before the aubprefect was surrendered by
the mob who held him as a hostage.
Later details of the capture of Subprefeot
Leulller show that soldiers a ho tried to
protect him were forced to retreat before
the fury of the mob. M. Leulllers' clothes
were literally torn from him and he was
badly beaten.
The fear that today, being Sunday, would
witness a renewal of the rioting In tha
affected districts fortunately was not real
ised. Although dispatches report that tha
populace In many places la still greatly
excited no Incident of violence, except tho
stoning of the prefecture at Nle, was re
ported up to midnight.
The various defense committees issued
proclamations today adjuring the people
to keep the peace.
"When the troops pass," says the procla
mations, "stand with folded arms and
sealed lips.'
The new Argelllers committee which has
assumed the direction nf the movement
since the arrest of Its precedecessor asks
for the prolongation of the prevent ques
tion of the acceptability of the govern
ment's wlna frauds bill and that after It
passes tha senate it ba submitted to a
referendum.,
Nevertheless, the government believes
that the backbone of tha revolt Is broken.
Several fresh regiments from tha north
have arrived at tha affected points and In
addition there Is a heavy cc.ncentratlon of
troops at Narbonne, Montpeller and other
centers of disturbance. Many of the
smaller towns, such as Argelllers and Blxe,
are now occupied by the military.
