Hocletr In Omaha.
Tito past week , notwithstanding the
autumnal suggestiveness of the atmos
phere , was another dull and uninterest
ing ono in Omaha society circles , yet a
decided Improvement on the inert sum
mer season. In addition to the brilliant
recaption given by Dr. and Mrs. Brown ,
nt the Fort , thcro wcro several lessor
lovcos , a high tea or two , children's par
ties , picnics and so forth within metro
politan limits. Thcso are all undeniable
precursors of n very general and decided
Awakening in society afl'ulrs , nnd a month
hence the social world will bo all aglow.
The opening of the theatrical season gen
erally murks the inaugural of society
pleasure , and already the holies and the
beaux are bostirlng themselves In prepar
ation for the whirl of pleasures , the
party , the wedding and the hop , which
illuminate with dazzling refulgence tha
.pilgrimage of the drear fall and wintci
months. Fall dress goods ara arriving in
bewildering profusion , the dress-makers
and the milliners are fortifying
themselves for an unusually thrifty sea
son , and m fact everything indicates nn
early inaugural of the gay season. In
terpflichoro this winter there will be
many now innovations introduced , in
cluding a charming now waltz , a mixture
of the ripple and the two-stop , very pop
ular this summer at Capo May aud At
lantic City ; several now figures in the
lanclcrs and a number of unique changes
in the gorman , Another thing that will
be conspicuously observable in the ball
room this winter will bo its excruciating
oxclusivoncss , and ladies will indulge in
the round dunces with only the most inti-
tnato gentlemen friends. This has boon
another closely adhered to rule at the
watering places this season , and the decree
croo of those summer centers is alirayi
the mode during the succcoding fall run
winter mouths in the sacred precincts o :
the ton. Thcso are but shadows of thi
events to come , and in another week tin
BEK will more fully expatiate on matter :
but briolly hinted nt hero.
A Brilliant Affair.
Ono of the most pleasant society event !
of the season , occurred Friday oveninf
at Fort Omaha. The occasion being r
complimentary hop given to the mem
bers of the tnlVerent rlllo teams partici
pating in the late contest of the Bellevue
vuo range , by Dr. and Mrs. Brown
The company was comprised of the oil !
cers of the dllToront rifle teams , the elli
cors of the Fort and a sprinkling of thi
ell to of Omaha society people. The residents
dents of the Fort have an enviable repu
tation for happy social events. Friday
evening was ono of the best and wai
passed enjoyably with music , dancing
and social intercourse. Among thosi
present wcro noticed General and Mrs
Crook , General nnd Mrs. Kcnnon , General
oral Wheaton. Captain and Mrs. Hay
Major Earnest , LigtUefifint Gruon , Lion
tenant Jones , Lieutenant Garrard , Lieu
lonnnt Kcrr. Of those from the citi
were Hichnrd Berlin. Mr. Sanborn , Mr
Vellum , the Misses McClintock , Miss Bui
combo , Miss Morse and Miss Berlin.
A AVooUeu Wedding.
Perhaps the most complete , iu the wa ;
of surprises , was the gathering at tin
residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Shrop
shire , iu Windsor place last Wednesda ;
evening. It was the occasion ot the lift !
anniversary of their wedding. The recipients
cipionts ot tlio honor had been invited ti
a neighboring house for tea and to spent
the evening. This invitation had booi
prearranged in order that the surpris
might bo more complete when the plai
of the scheme was dually and fully do
volopod.
It scorns that the idea was concoivcc
nnd first suggested by one of the mime
diato neighbors. Of course it bccam
necessary to impart the purpose to ih
younger members of the family , so as t
bo able to carry it out as devised. For ;
wcok or ton days the schemers had beoi
quietly working at the details of thi
affair , with not a hint to give rise to th
least suspicion in the minds of victims o
the foil design. Imagine the surprise o
Mr. and Mrs. Shropshire ou entering
thojr homo. Fully sovonty-livo happy
joyous , and altogether self-ooniplaceu
neighbors greeted them with most heart
congratulations , while trie largo dlninj
table in the cnnter of the room wa
loaded with oyory variety of woodou
willow , and Japanese ornaments , man ;
of them rare aud valuable.
It would bo impossible to attempt ai
enumeration of the very many useful an
beautiful articles , the moution of tw <
which scorn to call more loudly for recognition
ognition will sullico. One of tlieso wn
a stout , stool-tipped snow shovel. Th
person who submitted this practical oll'ei
ing is known to possess a truly practice
turn of mind , which , however , is nr
without its complement of humor , as I
fully evidenced by the token itself. Th
other was about live feet nit'of the bu <
, end of a huge but hollow log , which wa
taken into the parlor , where itwasapprx
priatoly labeled , extending the "Conipl
rneius of S. J. Megcath. "

others , including young ladies and got
tlemen whoso names were not procurci
Refreshments were served about 1
o'clock , after which came cigars for tt
gentlemen without , nnd dancing for tt
young folks within.
On the whole it was a most cnjoyab
altair and n complete and pleasant su
prise to the host and hostess.
