BUT THERE HAS BEEN PLEASURE Those Parties Which Have Been on the Calendar Have Been Delightful Enough to Make up for the Lack of Numbers. The Inclement weather of the past week has not been particularly .con ducive to social activity but In spite of the storm there has been consid erable doing In Norfolk. It has not been a record breaking week In the number of social events but those that luivo been un the calendar have been delightful enough to make up for tlio Jack of numbers. Social Pleasures. The West Side Whist club was pleasantly entertained by Dr. and Mrs. Holdeu Tuesday night. The Junior Social club enjoyed n pleasant meeting with Earl Krantz , at the homo of his parents , Mr. and Mrs. John Krantz , Tuesday evening. Frauk Leaser and Oscar Hauptll en tertained about twenty-five of their friends last evening at the Lenscr homo on Thirteenth street , at a hard times party. Miss Lizzie Scholly won the ladles' prize for being dressed In the most appropriate costume , and John Schelly the gentlemans' prize. Early In the evening Johnny cake and water were served , later on real re freshments. Cards were a feature of the evening. Mr. and Mrs. L.

Duttcrflcltl , Mrs. Mary Mathcwson , Mrs. John U. Hays , Mrs. A. J. Durlaml , Mrs. Bnrt Mopes , Mrs. W. II. Bridge and Mrs. II. J. Cole went to Wakolleld Wednes day afternoon and were entertained by Mrs. J. D. Ilaskell. The afternoon was spent in a visit and a delightful luncheon served at small tables , which was enjoyed by all. Eight ladies from Wayne and three from Ponder were of the company. The Norfolk and Wayne ladies returned on the evening passenger train. It was one of the unique and decidedly pleasant social affairs in north Nebraska this season. The social event of tlio week was clearly the large dinner party given by Mr. and Mrs. Robert Utter and Mr. and Mrs. C. 13. Din-land In Marquardt hall last evening. Ninety persons were seated at little tables throughout the spacious room at 0:30 o'clock and were served to a sumptuous five- course dinner. After the diners had finished , the gentlemen enjoyed a lialf hour's smoking , and then began u series of battles royal at military euchre. Captain Darius Mathcwson and his sturdy squad of volunteers won the day and captured every post. His team were : Mrs. Bridge , Mrs. Brake , Mrs. Logan , Mr. Gillette and Mr. Ersklno. They received dainty silver name plates for their coats. After the military euchre battles had been finished , chairs were cleared for a couple of dances , the old fash ioned quadrille featuring in the fun. The party was one of the largest and one of the most delightful given in Norfolk in many a moon. Clubs. The J. N. club held an enjoyable meeting with Miss Glendora Evans Thursday night. The Wednesday club met on Thurs day afternoon of this week with Mrs. J. S. McClary. The meeting was post- poncd until Thursday because a num ber of the members had gone to Wake- field on Wednesday to bo guests of Mrs. John D. Ilaskell during the after- noon. The economic department of the Woman's club will meet in the Con- grcgatioual church parlors Monday af ternoon , where there will be given a demonstration on economic cooking. The flreless cooking which Mrs. Me- Murphy is to demonstrate at the meet ing of the Woman's club Monday af ternoon is a novel utensil. It is a simple article , easily made. The cook er consists of a largo box or trunk lined on the Inside , both top and bottom tom , with hay four or five Inches thick. The food is prepared and heated until It bolls and Is then placed In the cook er and covered with pillows of hay and left four or five hours. When tak en out of the cooker the food Is found to be perfectly cooked and ready for the table. The principle Is the non- conduction of heat. Hay is ono of the best non-conductors. In this way none of the heat Is lost and the cooking continues slowly until the food Is thoroughly - . oughly cooked. Roast beef , baked \ ' beans and brown bread cooked this way are pronounced delicious. Hymenlal. The wedding of Dr. Pheasant and Miss Chllvers at Plorco this week was a society event of interest to Norfolk. TO.

Invitations are out for n party to be given by Mr. Walter Coinpton on the evening of October 30 at the homo of his sister. Mrs. U. 13. Bryant at11I South Fourth street. Theatrical. "In a Woman's Power" has been cancelled. Ono of the coming events will be "The Hidden Hand , " which Is pro nounced a good attraction. It plays hero November 1C. The Auditorium management has not yet repaired the playhouse with matting on the floor and a backboard to help the sound , but It Is said that this may bo done In the near future. Some other changes are also In the air. Sunshine and shadow in the form of humor and pathos , alternate rapid ly In the scenic play , "On the Bridge at Midnight , " which will appear hero tonight. A blind mother searches for her stolen child and her task Is beset with difficulties. Two remarkable characters , Germany and Roddy , come out strongly and the story reaches one of its stirring climaxes In the famous drawbridge scene. Three plays came to Norfolk this week. On Wednesday night "Human Hearts" pleased a fairly good sized house , though the weather Interfered greatly with the attendance. Lnst night Rufus Rastus minstrels made a good sized audience laugh and tonight "On the Bridge at Midnight" will make Its first appearance In Norfolk. All three of these plays are popular prlcod , the highest seats on any of the three nights being 75 cents. The play tonight - night Is a melodrama and comedy com bined. Joseph Do Grasso will be at the Auditorium next week In "The Mer chant of Venice. " He appears here on Tuesday night , October 30. Order of Hearing on Original Probate of Will.

Mihills public sale of pure blood Duroc-Jersey swine , held a few days ago , was attended by a large number of stockmen from surround ing towns but by comparatively few from Norfolk or the section Immediate ly surrounding Norfolk. This lack of Interest among the farmeis In pure blood stock is commented upon by stockmen who are interested in better ing their herds , and the lack of enthu siasm in this instance is taken as the basis for hoping that more interest can be worked up In future public sales of the kind. Farmers of Iowa and some parts of Nebraska have become very highly in terested in pure blooded stock because they find that the better quality aul- malt , pay bettor. A high quality , pure blooded animal cats no more than a cheap ono and thus , after the first in vestment Is made , every pound that is added is of much more value than a pound of ordinary livestock meat , The hope has been expressed in Norfolk that more interest may bo manifest in the future among farmura In this vicinity than has been In the past. The Norfolk News Is the advertising medium of north Nebraska. ROBERT GILLESPIE SUCCUMBED TO HEART FAILURE TODAY. HE WAS A DAILY NEWS AD.

HEARST MEN HOLD BACK CASH Claims on Hearst's Part Run as High as 150,000 Majority Some Hughes Money Is Placed Ten to Two Not Much Money is Being Wagered. New York , Oct. 29. Following the indorsement of the Hearst ticket , from top to bottom , by the executive com mittee of Tammany Hall , and the ex hortation of Charles F. Murphy , chief of the organization , to the district leaders , to support the nominee with true loyalty , the democratic situation In New York county has cleared up and there Is a better feeling all around. The only people who are disgruntled are some of the Independence league candidates for congress , the state sen ate , and the assembly , whose petitions for nomination wore rejected by the board of electors , thus leaving the field clear for a straight fight between the republican and democratic candi dates. Some of these Independent league candidates and their friends have appealed to the supreme court for n review of the action of the board of elections , asserting fraud In con nection with the throwing out of their petitions. High Hearst Claims. For the first time the democratic leaders began to talk of how big Mr. Hearst's plurality would be , In their estimation , In the city and state. W. J. Connors , chairman of the state com mittee , said Hearst would receive a plurality of no less than 148,000 In the greater city. Ho said the plurality for Mr. Hearst In all probability would bo much larger , but ho was willing logo on record that it would bo as much as MS.OOO. Tammany Chief Charles F. Murphy said 71,000 plurality In this city for Hearst would bo enough to elect him. Mr. Murphy also said ho did not doubt Hearst would como down to the Bronx with a plurality. Max II.
