A CUSTOM GROWN TO ABUSE A Variety of Social HnppnnliiES l Omnliii TlmatrlcnlMusical , niul Art Gossip Personal Notes. Drltlnl 1'roHcntn. In the last two wuoks , Hays a society liidy in the St. Louis Glebe Dumocrut : I have | iiid : tl O for bridal presents , and I do not expect to go through the season under $500 for this item of expense. I would avoid it il' 1 could , but the fact is , when I wiis married , three years ago , it was my misfortune to rcceivoabout J2,500 , worth of presents from my friends and relative * , and I am gradually paying hack their value to those who gave mo presents and to whom I must give in re turn. 1 thought such a liberal donation fortunate at the time , bull huvo learned differently by experience. Whenever I sue a great display of presents at .n wed ding now I say to niyhelf : "There is a debt of so many hundreds or thousands of dollars that this young conplu has paddlu'd upon them at thu beginning of thuir career. " It is a custom that has Krown to ubiiBO , and tlio only merit 1 sco in it is that they pay back on the install ment plan. I huvo several years to pay my debt , but still I must pay for many articles for which 1 have not had ttio Joiibt uso. " A Quiet "Week In Omaha Suclcty. Society sullered a total collapse last week , not a single club reception , no luncheons , nnd only one or two evening parties. Such a dead calm has not been before since the season begun and no doubt it is but a temporary lull to bo succeeded by a fresh burst of activity. People have shown an unusual devotion for the theatre and crowded houses have been the rnlo without exception. Thurs day evening the audience was exception ally line , nearly nil of the representative people ot Omaha being present. Opera is such a rarity hero , notwithstanding the anpotito that exists for it , that most any thing short of u barn-storming will draw like a porous plaster. The members of Iho troupe .showed delighted astonish ment at tlio enthusiasm ana repeated calls that greeted their feeblest attempts at fun and must have concluded that they wore presenting the Mikado to an audience - once nitherto ignorant of that erratic ellort. Unique JlcnuMiilmuioes. Ono of the most delightful parties of the season was given Friday evening by Mrs. Dr. Sprng.no in honor of her guest , MIPS .Jennie Wilbon , of St. Joo.

The ladies' musical was held in the tabernacle , Wednesday. The programme , which was arranged by Miss Kustin and Miss Jones , consisted entirely ol sacred numbers , most of it heavy oratorio work. Tlio audience wns small and the pro gramme was too uniformly ponderous to be really enjoyable. The selections might have bcnn confined to the purely classical , and yet have been made much brighter with pleasing effect. Thu mem bers of the Congregational choir , Mrs. Squires , Mrs. Kstabrook , Mr. Wilkins and Mr. Eslabraok , aid good solo duet and quartet work. Mr. Wilkins sang "I Bow Me , Almighty,1' ami earned n double recall , although it is against the rules of thcsouiuty to encore. Since his iHili/u : lion by two of the loading choirs , Mr. Wilkins' delightful voice is mooting with the recognition it is has always deserved. Mrs. Cotton's solo , "J Will Kxtol Thee from Eli , " was sung with great linish and niiisioianlv feeling. Her voice is as pure and soft as a snowilaku , and yet with all its softness has considcraulo. carrying power , and unlike too many singers , she never sacrilices melody to noisy effect. Mr. Ponnell's rich reson ant voice seems peculiarly fitted for oratorio , and his solo , "Lord God of Abraham , "from Elijah , was well handled , his power of sustaining notes showing remarkably.
