paign.
A review of society during the past seven
days escapes from the week like the foam
from u champagne bottle , light , airy und
with nu amusing llzz. The entertainments
yivcn have been of a character so charming
3s to remain in the memory , each a bright
ipot set in a largo surface of springtime dull
ness. Visitors , and winsome ones , too , have
been the acknowledged occasion for several
social functions , something now in face , form ,
thought and personality lending a charm of
variety that has n distinctly ugrccablo flavor
ut this time o' the year.
The winter's whirl in microcosm has un
wound itself pleasantly , leaving a sdent of
roses in the nostrils and the renewed en
joyment of an aural caress In some remem
bered strain of music. All of which stirs
deep in the hearts of the frivolous men and
maidens and the patriarch s and matriarchs
a certain homesickness for the whimsical
amusements that come after the autumn
bhizo of glory with the first touch of frost.
A Little German.
On Thursday evening the German class
under the tutelage of Mr. Ado Brachvogcl
mot ut his residence , whore they gave tholr
closing reading of the season. A portion of

the original and in translation , reflecting
flattering credit on Mr. Brachvogel's excep
tional powers us an Instructor. After the
lesson Mr. Brachvogol read charmingly in
his musical German the parting between
Leicester and Mary. A supper party and
some delightful selections on the zither
and piano followed , Mrs. Hitchcock ,

A Decided Innovation.
On lust Saturday evening a number of
young men and pretty girls urged by a gen
eral feeling of Joviality conceived the notion
of going for a hay ride. Execution followed
quickly on suggestion and a gay
party disposed lOf themselves com
fortably in the hay-filled box of
u wagon. Jolting over stony ways aud
bowling along smoothly over the asphalt
pavement were nllko pwivocatlvo of laughter
und enjoyment , and the bananas and soda
water that constituted the refreshment
afforded ns much Intoxication to youth aud
high spirits us any quantity of champagne
could later on in the lesson of growing old.
The party consisted of Miss Irma Balch , Miss

graced the occasion. The roses later revolved
themselves into favors for the tender
soprano part in the chorus of voices and high
sweet laughter that broke the silence of the

ure. Mrs. 'Ford is a woman gifted with rare
conversational abilities and a certain bright
charm of manner that in n hostess directly
dispells formality and promotes the truest
enjoyment. Cards followed the luncheon ,
the game affording opportunities for gossip
and a display of skill us well. These who
graced the occasion were Mrs. Hulse , Mrs.

Omnhiv'rt Musical Loss.
Miss Carrie Maude Pennock , whoso clear
soprano voice has lent charms to many public
and private gatherings during the past year ,
has taken leave of her large circle of friends
in Omaha for a sojourn in Now York city.
She left last evening In company with her
mother for a short visit with relatives in
western Now York , after which both will es
tablish headquarters in Now York city and
Miss Pennock will continue her favorite
study under the best masters of the metropo
lis. Miss Pennock has become widely known
in Omaha musical and social circles ns the
possessor of rare musical powers , happily
blended with a native grace and vivacity of
manner always to IK ) noted In her whether
on the stage or In the drawing room. The
series of musical soirees given by her during
the past season at some of the best appointed
homes in this cuy have been before referred
to as of the highest merit , enlisting the sup
port of leading musicians. The loss of her
energy mid Inspiration in musical circles can
not easily bo repaired , but Miss Penuock can
bo assured of un army of well wishers , many
ot whom have predicted for her a bright
future in the musical world.

dren two sons and a daughter. The eldest
son resides in Chicago ; the daughter Is a
teacher in the public school ut Albright , and
the younger son is attending the Weslcyan
university at Lincoln. It had been the In
tention of Mr. and Mrs. Richardson to celebrate -
brato the event in n becoming manner , but
the continued illness of the latter made It
necessary to abandon the idea.
However , their friends becoming nwaro of ,
the the coming anniversary took the matter
Into their own hands and determined on u
surprise , which was effectually carried out.
They tilled the parlors of the Exchange
hotel , and after Mrs. Richardson had been
wheeled In in an easy chair the Rov. D. Marquette -
quotte , in some very fitting and appropriate
remarks , presented In behalf of the friends
a beautiful silver tea set , upon which was

Till ! DOWNFALL Of FIIANK CI.A11K ,
The sentencing of Frank Clark of York to
the penitentiary for breaking Into a saloon
and stealing a drink is the sad ending of the
career of a ouco prosperous farmer , Clark n
few years ago commenced with nothing and
through his industry , sobriety and frugality
acquired a splendid farm but a short distance
from York and had it finely stocked. Pros
perity proved too much for him and ho took
to drink. Ho neglected his crops and stock
and It was not long before ho had his farm
heavily mortgaged. The money thus ac
quired wont into the tills of the vendors of
whisky , and the splendid comi > etonce slipped
from his lingers , leaving him
only a team of horses. Ho then went to
York and went into the dray business ,
but his love for liquor soon robbed him of
his horses and the scanty furniture In his
homo. Finally ho found himself without a
cent on earth with which to buy a drink and
yielding to the insatiable craving for stimu
lants ho broke Into the saloon where ho had
squandered thousands of dollars and for the
last time filled himself with Intoxicants. Ho
was found dead drunk by the proprietor and
was arrested for house-breaking. Ho was
tried and convicted and sentenced to the
penitentiary , but as his attorney believes the
IKMinlty too severe ho has appealed the case
to the supreme court for n reversal of the de
cision.

private bankers that directly relates to the
conduct of the business , but not concerning
the other enterprises that may bo conducted
by the bankers , and of course directly affects
their banks. Thus , suppose the proprietor of
a private bank is the owner also of three or
four lumber yards and is owing some enor
mous bills for lumber. Sometimes to pay
these ho may have to draw heavily upon
his bank. This of course directly affects the

"What do you think of the fact that
scventy-ouo banks of the state are disobeying
the banking law that went into effect a year
ago ? "
"Well , I think that in nearly every case
the disobedience is duo to ignorance or neg
lect and is not intentional. A great many
successful fanners or merchants embark in
the banking business and of course are not
familiar with the laws governing the same.
When the banking law went into effect a
year ago If wo had insisted that it bo lived
up to strictly immediately , it would have
wrought great financial ruin. Many of the
banks were loaded up with real estate and
would have had to dispose of it at a sacrifice ,
while the immediate enforcement of the law
concerning rediscounting would have pushed
many banks to the wall. Wo are endeavoring
to gradually force the banks into a legal
method of business without making them
