In last week's issue, we unintention ally omitted mention of the Hallowe' en entertainment given by the ladies 1 Guild at the Orpheus Hall. The de corations here were very eleborate Jack o' lanterns alternating ith palms were used in place of the usual foot lights. They decorated the balustrade surroundidg the gallery, they lighted two gaily decorated fortune tellers tents, which were presided over by local talent, who "dipped into the future as far as human eye could see" and started a few partrons by their unexpected display of ability in that direction. A cake walk was a fea ture of the evening entertainment. Three impartial judges awarded the prize, a cake, to M. D. Karr and his partner. Late in the evening the coffee booth presided over by Mrs. George Thomas and Mrs. Homer Robinson was the most popular corner of the hall. Dancing continued until midnight. The entertainment was such a decided success socially and financially that the Ladies' Guild hope to make it an annual affair. One of the most unique opening this city has seen, occured last Fri day afternoon when the Misses Rusche threw open the "Ye Gift Shop" to the public The first impression as the visitor stepped into the room made them exclaim, "Oh how beatuiful". The wall were hung with- picture of every size in water colors and pastel work, fancy work, tooled leather and Hand painted cards filled the cabinets, indeed as some one said you could find every thing there frorr a magnificient picture to as small hand painted sach et bag. fo add to the beauty red carnations were used effectively in the decoration and each guest was present ed with one of the beauites.

Angelis Diamanitiz, a Greek labor er, died last Saturday as a result of injuries received on Wednesday pre ceding in a railroad accident at Scuy ler. He was a member of a section gang, and with other members of the crew, was going from Benton to Schuy ler, when the hand-car on which they were riding ran into an open switch. He leaves a wife and two children, and was thirty-three years old. The funeral was held Monday morning from the Gass undertaking rooms, the serv ices being in charge of a priest of the Greek orthodox church, from Oma ha. Interment was made in Colum bus Cemetery. One of the most delightful of the numerous parties, given recently, was the one o'clock luncheon given Tues day, by Mrs. E. H. Chambers and Mrs. C. D. Evans, at the home of the former. The affair was in honor of Mrs. Williams, of Omaha, who is the guest of Mrs. Chambers. The decora tions were pink and white carnations and southern palms. The new winter sun parlor, just compel ted. is a most attractive spot. Daintily draped white curtains, subdue the glare of the sum; hanging baskets, climbing vines, and birds, suggested an ideal summer day. Instrumental music was a part of the afternoon's entertanment. The out of town guests were Mrs. Williams andMrs. Whaley, of Omaha, Mrs. Ol seen, of Lincoln, and Mrs. Miller, of Clarinda, Iowa. Saturday evening Miss Anna McTag gart, accompanied by her brother Thomas, left for Denver, where Sun day at 12:30, Miss McTaggart was united in marriage to Mr. R. S. Wash burn, formerly of this city. The cere mony was performed at the Catholic Cathedral, and was witnessed only by Miss Marguerite Mahon. an aunt of the bride, and Mr. Thomas McTaggart, a brother.

While passing upon the usual stream of cases the other morning police judge Natal! bad be fore him a complaining witness one Mrs. Ben Carpi, known to Pittsburg's olive oil circles as the most beautiful woman in the Italian colony. To dem onstrate that she had received a beat ing as alleged. Mrs. Carpi Insisted on disrobing to show her scars. Men and boys cast aside respect for his office and were trying to get out before the judge could. The jam at ECp Insisted on Disrobing. the door continued, as those who had got out turned on their heels and tried to peek in again, thereby colliding with those who were in and wanted to get out. Mrs. Carpi still insisted that the judge examine her scars and bruises. The judge is a married man and Mrs. Carpi has a husband. Finally. In desperation, the judge summoned a jail matron, who closed all the doors, and in about a half an hour made Mrs. Carpi put her clothes back where they belonged. When the case was resumed It de veloped that Mrs. Carpi's husband had given a party to several friends, and to show that the party was a success In every way. some one started a friendly argument which left the house standing but badly shaken. During the festivities, Mrs. Carpi came in violent contact with several lists and pieces of furniture. The celebrants were arrested and she appeared as complainant. The men were fined for disturbing the peace, the case was closed to the evident relief of judge and attaches; but Mrs. Carpi., who by the way is of an aristocratic family (she says) still wonders at the justice which refused to consider prima facl evidence at that place. Mr. and Mrs. Wash burn will be at home to their friends, two new business women and their after December 6, at Denver. J splendid shop.
