An enthusiastic woman champion Insists
X * that the youtiR women of our day uro much
rt superior to those of our Rrnndmothcrs' rtny ,
nnd to illustrate one phase of her meaning she
relates an Incident that occurred at a popular
casldo resort last summer. A party had
\yandercd out on a rocky headland that
pushed into tlio sea. It was m do up of Irreg
ular masses of rock , separated by gaping
chasms , into which the incoming tloo swirled
.angrily , Ono young woman , who was just
thonvcrngo American girl , bright , pretty nnd
pleasing. Blood on the edge of ono of these
chasms nnd announced her Intention of jutnn-
las * across. It measured four or llvo fcot In
Width , and ten feet below the tide wns boiling
vor submerged rocks. One of the men who
| md begun to nssume protectorate airs over
her , expostulated. She merely laughed ,
dared him to follow her : there was n plimnsc
of white sltlrts nnd a pair of trim ankles , and
then fiom the other side of the chasm she
faced about smilingly and repeated her chal
lenge. "Would the young woman of other
lays , who were clustering ringlets , who
twisted their necks and stooped at the waist ,
linvo done such things } They couldn't If
they had wanted to.
Is there a field in Omaha for a woman's
flub ) For some time past the question has
been discussed In the literary circles of the
I city and while there is n , great dlverganco of
i opinion the majority of the ladles who huvo
* --uid the matter broached to them have
thought the field sufllciontly Itirgofor such an
Institution.
I Some evenings slnco Mrs. W. H. Hanchctt
Who Is directing the work of four classes In
.tho city , brought the matter to a focus by
proposing to her class in English literature
that If the members would pay $1 per month
toxvard the renting of n room centrally lo-
fated , nnd would , in addition , present to the
club ono boolc a month , insldo of n year the
organization would have a verv creditable 11-
Imirynnd nt the same time h place v hlch
Would bo distinctly their own. The proposl
tlon was received very fuvnrobly , but as yet
no definite action has been taken toward the
formation of such a club. Several of the
ladles in Mrs. Hanchott's Wednesday class
which Is engaged in the study of English
history nro enthusiastic upon the subject and
will lend their asslstanco in a substantial
ID an nor.
While It is simply a matter for pleasant
discussion , there is u growing tendency on
the part of many philanthropic women to organize -
ganizo n club which shall contemplate all the
(1 ( vantages enjoyed by the sterner sex.
lt would bo very pleasant for ladles on
pnliiK expeditions , who could not get back
to tnotr homos for luncheon , to drop Into
their club with the certainty of meeting congenial -
genial people , who for a brief time would
forget the delights and charms of dress for
"Sj the additional delight of a pleasant discus-
\ y ion on Slinhosncnro , Browning , Swinburne
or the latest fads of the hour , which literary
people so thoroughly enjoy. Theosophy ,
Christian Science , and may bo Dr. Koch's
great discovery might find herein warm ad
vocates or enthusiastic antagonists. It could
bo made an educator , u power for good lu
the community. But the question naturally
suggests Itself , Is there u Held for a woman's '

So ninny card parties have been given this
jBcason that it would bo impossible to decide
Which one dcservos the palm for the greatest
success. But In the matter of delightful
pavtlcM , that given by Mr. and Mrs. Charles
A. Dean , 309 Jones street , Tuesday evening ,
leads by reason of its unronvcnttonallty and
tlio genuine hospitality shown by the host
net hostess.

of the gifts nnd accomplishments which both
nature nnd effort had secured to hor.
The mnrrlngo ceremony was performed at
the residence of Mr. William Segclkc , the
business partner of the brido's father ,
and greater Interest lu the event
could scarcely have been taken oven
by the parents of the brldo. It
was a great day In the Scgolko
household , the host and hostess leaving
nothing undone to cause the event long to bo
remembered. As a consequence the parlors
were hung with flowers , and ntuld the frag
rance of the Juno time the twain were made

Among the numbers was a beautiful
lolcction from "Lohcugrcn. " Interest In

muscr csi > oclnlly for the occasion. The
> lcco is n beautiful ono nnd Its Instilling
strains will lone bo reminders of the nappy
occasion on which It was played ,
Owing to the wide acquaintance of the conj
ractlng parties , it was necessary to conllno
ho festal features of thq occasion to their im
mediate families. Accordingly , only the fol-
owing were presents Mr. nnd Mrs. Gustavo

Tlio West Kiul Club Disbands.
Monday evening the members of the West
End card club mot nt the residence of Mr.
ana Mrs.V. . G. Sloan on South Thirtieth
avenue to perfect the organization for the
winter. For thrco yearj Mrs. Sloan has been
the eflldont president of the club , hut per
emptorily refused to take the position again.
This action on the part of Mrs. Sloan was
very unexpected nnd precipitated a general
dUcusslon upon the question of keeping the
club allvo. No ono would serve as president
Mrs. Sloan having been so signally success
ful that the lady members felt that It wouli
bo impossible to ml the place In tbo highly
creditable manner which distinguished Mrs
Sloans administration , and the members
