The way-tip society people of Lincoln
pjavo matters in their line n now turn this
spring. The old fashioned sot party with
folded hands , nnd even the neighbor
hood or select dance or euchre party
gave plnco to n more stylish , extensive
nnd elaborate gathering called recep
tions. Homo hold I hem in the early
evening from 5 to 7 , nnd others from 8:30 :
to 11:00. : At the "afternoons" the house
was darkened , the gas lighted and every
appearance of night secured. At nil of
these gatherings the dresses of the ladles
were especially elaborate , costing in
Bomo oases hundreds of dollars , and in
others much moro than sorao husbands
could aflbrd. These dresses followed the
latest fashion to the letter , nnd some of
them fell a little short of material. The
manner of construction seemed to bo a
start on the train and skirt , nnd by the
time the waist was reached the material
was exhausted. Street cars , though pass
ing the door worn discarded and & hack
called into requisition. There Is a vague
Etory afloat to the effect that at some of
these receptions something stronger than
water was ofl'cred ns a beverage , and
even some of the members of the W. C.
N T. U. in their innocence indulged In n
little mild milk punch , but no
cases of intoxication have been reported.
But when the warm weather actually sot
in all these things were abandoned as
entirely too exhaustive , and the exodus
to summer resorts and supposed cool
places began. Now Lincoln people maybe
bo found cast nnd west at watering
places. It would seem that few cities of
its size distribute visitors and sightseers
moro widely than Lincoln. In winter
southern California and Florida always
secure a good delegation , and , too , they
remain for months. In the summer they
scatter even moro widoly. Several well
known families are now on the Atlantic
sea shore or up in the Now England
woods or village near their native haunts.
Others are north on the great lakes or in
the groves of Wisconsin nnd Minnesota
while a delegation has started for Fugoi
Bound and the unknown territory of
Alaska , intending to return through the
National park. Nor arc the mountains
nf Colorado without their share , which is
nlways a largo one. Nor is this all. The
old world comes in for some attention ,
and quite a number are cither on the con
tinent or cnroutn. Chancellor Mennatt ,
of the Rtato university , nnd MrsJ. . 11.
Blair , well known in business circles ,
started yesterday , and ono of the charm
ing things about nil this going is
thnt it is not confined to the
rich nlono , many in ordi
nary , nnd some even in humble circum
stances , have found the means to indulge
their taste for travel and recreation.
A. J. Cropsey has gene to Denver , G.
A. Mullay to Omaha. Ex-Governor
David Uutlcr , the great anti-monopolist ,
is at the Capital hotel. Dr. Rouse , Airs.
B. C. Ontcault and Mrs. G. W. Ballon-
tine nave gene to Denver and the moun
tains. W. S. Hamistou and family have
gene to St. Paul. Minn. , and the northern
Fakes. A. S. Itaynioud , the wholesale
grocer , nnd his family nro summering at
ppirit Lake , la. Miss May Potvin has
gone to Detroit and other Michigan cities.
Miss Fhohe Elliott , member of the Lincoln
school board , with friends , will visit
Chautauqua , N. Y. , the Thousand islands ,
nnd other summer resorts.
TUB Ilia DROUGHT.
The BEG correspondent met a gentle-
nian to-day who has boon over most of
Kansas and western Nebraska nnd the
tale ho brings about crops is a woful ono.
In much of Kansas ana part of Nebraska
the long continued dry weather tins out
the wheat and oats crop very short , and
what damage the drought could not do
the chinch bug has stepped in to com
plete , lie reports many fields of wheat
ns abandoned nnd only waiting for the i
torch to destroy as many bugs as possi
ble. So numerous have these pests be
come in some places ns to not only at
tack the corn but oven the prairie grass ,
something hitherto unknown. lie re
ports Holds of corn that gave every prom
ise , littcrallv folding up and disappear
ing in the blighting inlluenco ot those
pes.s. Ho oven wont so far ns to predict
that if the dry weather continued ton
days longer not moro than enough corn
[ for homo consumption would be raised.
SVhilo it is doubtless true that crops have
been moro or less damaged as suggested ,
yet his opinions , though arrived at from
observation , are to be taken with sorao
allowance , and plenteous rain which now
is promised , may oven kill the chinch
bug and assure an excellent corn crop.
It F free from damage in this vicinity
and never promised better.
L1VH STOCK IIKALTn.
The members of the State Live Stock
il commission have returnetl after a couple
of weeks journey through the stnto. The
business in that department is rapidly in
creasing and the entire time of the state
veterinarian nnd commissioners is em
ployed. There are constant complaints
in regard to glnndorcd horses. The pros-
pool of securing from the state pay foi
nn old broken down horse is so alluring
that many reports of glanders nro madti
that have in fact no real foundation. So
frequent are those reports indeed that il
lias been found impossible to make an
investigation in all of them , nnd onlj
those receive attention which seem tc
have real merit in them. The disease o (
glanders is not on the increase in the
Ftato.
SEKIOUSLY INJUHEI > .
Between 1 and 3 o'clock this inorninc
&s a policeman was passing along C
Btroct fa front of Kelly's saloon ho heard
what ho supposed to be burglars. As
elstnuco WHS called and upon investlga
tion in a narrow hall they found n mat
lying in a pool ot blood. Dr. Kueb was
called nnd the wounded man carried oui
to the light and examined , ilo had evidently
dently gone up the stairs and in a drunk
en stupor fallen asleep and upon wakinf
had fallen down the arua way ueai
by. Ho has several cuts and bruisci
' about the head , especially ono long cut
Examination shows the wound not s
ppccinlly dangerous ono , but painful
; Th skull was not fractured , and his re
povory is quite curtain , Ills name i :
Brooks Quiglcy , a laborer.
About the same time burglars tried t <
effect an entrance into the Cundy Kilchei
on South Twelfth street , but were dis
Covered nnd tied before the police coult
catch on to them.
THE "GI.OUIOUS" rouirrii.
The preparations for the celebration a
the ' 'pen" nro moro elaborate than win
t iirst supposed. The convicts huvo ilxei
up a stage with lings and national color
decorated with plctimsof ilUinguUhci
Americans dead txiui : ihvo An claborad
dinner will be burvcd to llio convicts um
invited fdoutts. Saturday night the base
Went was pill d full of broiti ; , and over i
bun U rod spring chickens had bcei
1 for the iiatnl day dinner. Tin
convicts will.themselves participate in
the exercises with songs and speeches.
ETltKHT ItAlMlOADS.
Hie Lincoln street railway company is
on the make , regardless of whether or
not It accommodates tlio people on the
Tenth strqct lino. The custom has been
to run a car every ton minutes , but when
it comes base ball time ono car is delib
erately hauled oflf and the regular pat
rons allowed to wait the convenience of n
slow coach and have their plans cut
into by a fall nro to got a car at the de
sired time ! . The city will soon realize
that it has given away many valuable
franchises for nothing , and that the
people huvo no rights which the street
car companies nro required to respect.
There should be some restrictions re
quiring the companies to do the fair
thing by the people. There is another
just cause for comnlalnt. During the
assembly nt Crete the rail road runs nn
excursion train leaving Crete nt 0:30 :
each evening nnd arriving in Lin
coln a few minutes after 10 ,
nnd there is no street car in
sight the camper-out must either walk
n longdistance homo or hire n hack ,
which is expensive after 10 o'clock at
night. It would pay the car company to
give sonic attention to this matter.
SUNDAY CLOSINO.
The fuss made some months since
about closing stores on Sunday has all
died out nnd to-day every store that can
niako any money is open nnd running on
Sunday time , even grocery stores keep
ing on as usual. But no saloons offer to
open their doors anil Sunday is really a
quiet day on the streets of Lincoln.
.From tlio Landing N. V. Florist.
C. F. Klunder , of No. 007 Broadway ,
New York , is ono of the best known
llorists in America. Florists , like other
persons , are subject to the ills of life ,
notwithstanding the fragrance surround
ing their calling , but like other persons
they can be cured of their ills. Mr.
Klunder writes :
I cordially recommend Allcock's Po
rous Plasters. I have found them , after
10 years' constnntuse , wonderfully eflica-
cious in coughs , colds , pains in side ,
back and chest. As chest protectors ana
shields against changes in the weather
they nro invaluable. My hothouse men
use n great many , nnd 1 and family are
never without this never failing external
remedy.

DON'T GET WET.
Not Fashionable Now For Society 1'co-
plo to Go In liathliitr.
Chicago News : Surf bathing is no
longer a fashionable diversion. Swim
ming schools , therefore , are less fre
quented by women than they were two
or three years ago. Those who disport
themselves in the nittalorlum pools
during the hours sacred to the feminine
sex are generally school girls and small
lassies. A few seasons ago the natatoriums -
riums of Mio city wore con
ducted with * extreme oxclusivcness.
When a lady unknown to the
management applied for n season's tui
tion she was not admitted as n pupil until
her standing was looked up. Aristocratic )
nnd dainty women Hooked to the swim
ming school every morning. Intense ,
often bitter , rivalry sprang up between
the fair nymphs of the basin. Certain
women attained local celebrity for their
skill in the water. The cold and treach
erous waves of Lake Michigan oiler
little encouragement to the swim
mers , nnd natatonums afforded tlio
enthusiasts their only opportunity
for indulging in this recreation.
They vied with each other in the beauty
mill variety of their bathing suits. These
wore of nil colors , but palo blue , palo
rose color nud pure white , through which
tbo pink skin could faintly gleam , wore
voted the most effective. They were ex
ceedingly abbreviated garments. When
exhibitions were given toward the end of
the season spectators were only ad
mitted by invitation ol the ladies ,
and the number of invitations was
limited at that. The show was
hedged in with oxclusivoucss. It was es
teemed a privilege to bo admitted to nnd
behold the exhibition of loveliness in the
tub. Pure-minded women , with unsul
lied reputations , displayed their charms
in the water with innocent abandon.
But the craze ran its course like all fash
ionable crazes. Slowly , at first , the ox-
elusive dames began to drop out of the
coterlo of swimmers. In a little while
there wore but few left.
'A peculiarity of Hood's Sarsaparilla is
that while it purifies the blood , it imparts
DOW vigor to every function of the body.
