Nature.
Society In Omaha.
Another week has rolled nrouiul and
Mill society circles maintain their unruf
fled calm , but , as before intimated , under
the btirfaeo lire all the indications of an
early : utd vigorous resuscitation. 'Iho
days are growing shorter , und the mono
tone ) of the cicudao is heard the night
through , proclaiming in unmistakable
language that the summer time is over.und
the hoary winter , with his snow und
icy breath is about to bo ushered in.
Then begins the brilliant round of indoor -
door festivities , then opens up the season
of weddings , and balls , and parties , the
season of flirtation , of love-making and
conquest. The daily telegraph tells of
the emptying of the seaside hotels , and
every incoming steamer brings homo its
delegation of tourists from abroad. Soon
all will be homo again , and then society
V events will follow thick and fast. The
only event of prominence during the
past week was the brilliant nuptials
of Mr. \ \ illiam Dell , ot London , England ,
and Miss Sallie II. Lowe , the beautiful
daughter of General W. \ \ . Lowe , of this
city. This was an occasion of extraor
dinary splendor , and a lit inauguration
of the gav season that is to shortly follow.
A little bird has whispered to the BKU
that this recherche wedding is to have
its counterpart within the next thirty
days , that another of the fairest of the
fair is to be led to the altar
by one of the city's most eligible catches
and exemplary young business men.
Hut this little feathered friend has en
joined secrecy , and the lir.t ; dare not violate
late its wishes. Still further intelligence
on the subject will bo shortly forthcom
ing. For the time intervening the belles
and beaux can bo employed in guessing
at who the happy couple are.
