Society In Oninli.i ,
NolwItlistundinK tlio docial season
proper hus ended , and the warm weather
of last week , there wortmany prominent
social events. These were occasioned
principally by the lauro number of
Blrancrrri who hnyo been in Omaha dur
ing the past two weeks whoso friends
here felt in duty bound to formally wel
come. The different conventions in ses
sion , notably that of the Presbyterians ,
congregated hero a superior c-lass of people
ple , many of whom hail relatives and ac
quaintances in the city. \ \ hilo they can
not he called society people us far as the
pleasure siLnHicunee ; of the term noes ,
btill the hiKli character of the ladies and
pciith-mon and the honor they piid ; the
city by their vifeit made receptions nnd
greetings in their honor par
take of a real social char
acter. Then there were several brilliant
dancing parties , notably those at Gen
eral Wheaton's and Mr Joseph ISurkor's.
Jn fact , the weather whose duty it was to
call out the lawn party , thu picnic 'neatli
the sylvan shades , lawn tennis and cro
quet , suspended the regular order of so
cial afTairn , and let the glare of candolo-
bru mid gas throw a little more light on
the subject of indoor dancing and hearth
Htono pleasures.
Several prominent society people have
favorite guests with them whose pres
ence must needs be formally recogni/.ed ,
although their visits were late in the bea-
bon. Most of these have lurried in
Omaha for a few duys , waiting for their
hosts and hostesses here to join them on
trips to the summer resorts. So taken
all in all , the last week of May , 1877 , was
the. gayest ever known during a similar
period in Omaha.
Tin : AKMV'S reputation for excellence
in the arrangement of brilliant social
events was fully .sustained by General and
Mr.s. Wheaton's complimentary party to
their guest , Miss Klnzio , of Detroit. It
occurred on Thursday and was attended
by the leading society people of the gitj
including , of course , the prominent army
ollicor.s. The general's residence was
beautifully and arti.stic.illy decorated , the
regimental band added sweet music to
the merriment , a delicious lunch was
served , dancing was generally indulged
in and altogether it was a brilliant society
event in nvery particular. Among the
guests were General and Mrs. Crook ,
Senator and Mrs. Manderson , Genera
and Mrs. lireck , General and Mrs. Dandy ,
General and Mrs. Hawkins , General ami

This pleasing little farce , in English ,
"The Chicken , " was received with
great laughter. Miss Hamilton in
the character of Dr. Fremont was
admirable. "That baby , " M'llo Kliso
Lent'/ , was exceedingly good. Miss
Florence Kngland as the Fortune Teller
and nil the French maids enacted their
parts truthfully and of cour o humor
ously. It was the general opinion of those
present that this little "French trottpi' "
gave more general satisfaction than did
the Hernliardt party. The pieres were
cut down and no cheating of the audience
attomutiui. The " "
ence was "eiiigmo"
ini-nlionud on the programme consisted
of a series of enigmas in French , which
wore given out for the Indies to solve.

fully attended to by McMlnmes Wallace ,

day evening. It took place in the parlors
of the Millard hotel. The Rev. George C.
Hickman , class of15 and ex-president of
Hanover , made a very Snippy address to
the hundred guests of the evening and
the assembled alumni. About twenty-
live of the old graduates were present
besides several other commissioners who
nre in attendance at the present conven
tion.
THE PAKNT.I.L club gave its farewell
party on Wednesday evening and it
proved to bo the most mijoyuble of tiie
season. The attendance was the largest
of any party yet held , and the guests
knowing there would be rest for the
"light fantastic toe" for some months
seemed determined to make this farewell
occasion a memorable ) one. This club is
not yet two years old and has been suc
cessful far beyond the expectations of
the enthusiastic young gentlemen who
organized it.
THE rutsT formal reception given by
Mr.s. Dean Gardner on Tuesday was at
tended by nil the prominent members
not only of Trinity cathedral , but of all
the Episcopal churches in the city , be
sides leading ladies and gentlemen of
other denominations. During the after
noon and evening there was a constant
stream of visitors. St. Andrew's brother
hood attended in a body. Mrs. Gardner
lias become a great social favorite since
taking up her residence in Omaha.
THE FKISHYTEKIAN assembly now in
session has served to bring together old
college and schoolmates from nil over
the country , many of whom had not met
since they bid farewell to alma mater
years and years ago. Many residents of
Omaha have also had an opportunity of
meeting relatives , teachers and old
friends of the halcyon yore. Consequently
quently the first two weeks have been
occasions of "reunions. " Among the
most enjoyable was that of Friday last
at the oilico of Mr. 15. II. Robinson
in the Omaha National Hunk building
when the alumni of Hanover college ,
Indiana , talked over old times. The
Rev. Gco. C. Hiokman , ox-president of

cated near Utica , New York , held a

The Casino is the name of a now pleas
ure resort , established on the corner of

main features will be regular concerts ,

This resort is neatly lilted up and is select
in every way , being a place whole no one
need bo afraid to bring his wife and fam
ily for an evening's recreation. It is
managed after the be > t style of similar

ADDITIONAL COUNCIL BLUFFS-
AUor the Snlooim.
Papers were filed in the clerk's ofllco I
yesterday indicating that the outside saloons - i
loons are also to bo shut up. Those pe
titions are for injunctions against saloons - I
loons in Ncola and Underwood. F. M. i
Kecuey is the plaint ) ! ! ' in thee cases. The *
affidavits attached nro to the olfi-ct that
A. I' . McLcrcn and 11. Darnlll bought * j
drinks in those places , and they do the f
swearing. The injunctions asked for are '
against H. Elliott , William Fat-roll and Pat
Kyan of Ncola , and George Wolf and
Angus Ruddigor ot Underwood. These
persons are cited to appear before Judge
Carson on thu tilth of Juno.
There wi-rn some wild rumors afloat
yesterday about proceedings to bo
brought against those who have violated
the injunctions issued against saloons in
this city. That come such proceedings
nre to bo brought there is little doubt.
Some of the saloon men were yesterday
getting ready to depart from the city on
short notice , rather than submit to fur
ther annoyance by being brought before
the bar. The number of these is small ,
but they are sufficient to give rise to num
erous rumors about what is to take place
within .1 short time.
Cortilicd copies of these injunctions
were obtained the other day by Attorney
Sims , who is the prosecutor for the pro
hibitionists , ami this move indicates that
there is some reason for believing that
Homo action is to be taken towards pun-
iMiing any who can bo proved to have
violated tnu injunctions.

Tim Oakland Fire.
About 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon
lire was discovered in a small furniture
store in Oakland. The bla/.o spread , und
n a few moments it was beyond control.
Avoca , flixteen mill's away , was asked for
help , nnd the lire engine was scut
to Oakland. Some little delay
necessarily followed , and even after
they arrived , there was didiciilty
in getting tlio hose laid. Before the lire
was extinguished some twenty-one or
twenty-two buildings were consumed.
The lire was on Main street and included
somn of the principal business houses.
The largest losers are Norton & Bryant ,
hardware. Besides their stock they lost
their booKS which contained outstanding
accounts to the amount of about
$5,000. Their loss over and
above their insurance is , re
ported to be about $1,501) ) . The news
roachi-d this city , but nothing definite-
could bo learned , as there is no telephone
communication with Oakland. All the
news was gained through Avoca , and
that was very meagre. ' .

,7. G. Tipton says just see the difference
bjlwtten shrewd people and sluggards.
Sluggards stand around on the street
corners and worry their "dear lif.tjo
souls" because the bridge business don't
go ahead as fast as they think it s'tioidd ,
while the Hhrewd people cpmo nround'to '
his real estate oilico and nick up all the
best bargains ho has , und say they hope
the work on the bridge won't commence-
for a month , until they can gel some
more money to invest. Tipton sayH it/a /
an absolute fact that his shrewdest ctis-
tomors are taking ad vantage of the delay
i this way , and regard it us only a blons-
g in di.sgui.se , and that he is soiling
property every day to this class of ptb-
pie.
