The pace sot by the swells week before
Jast was entirely too killing to la long , and
last week showed a decided dlsnoiltlon on
the part of society to take life a llttlo moro
conservatively. Pcrconscquonco , the func
tions wcro not so numerous , yet those given
wore upon an elaborate scale , nnd Omaha
quite sustained Its reputation for thu beauty
of Its entertainments.

Almo. Pattl has boon renewing her former
triumphs In Now York , the metropolitan
press being a unit In pralso ot "la diva , "
whoso voice , they say , has lost none of Its
wonderful sweetness , and as for the madame
herself , she Is the same charming woman as
of yore , making social triumphs quite ns
brilliant In their way ns her notable sue-
cesses on the concert stage.
Last .Sunday she took a drive ir. the park ,
and on her return she held a small levee m
her parlor at the Windsor hotel. She was
In high splrlis , says Iho New York Times ,
nnd greolcd every ono who called with ft
pleasant smile and many with some words
of recognition or remembrance. She had
fully recovered , she said , from her recent indisposition -
disposition the result of a sittrht cold con
tracted on shipboard and apprehended no
further trouble.
The diva apoko with delight of her recep
tion at Aluslc hall on Saturday afternoon.
The stage was very draughty , she said , and
after her long confinement this was particu
larly trying to her nerves. It was this , no
doubt , that gave the Impression that she
was in a bad temper.l > Of course , " she
added. " 1 was nothing of Iho sort. "
While Alme. P.itti was receiving her vis
itors Sic Mcolliil had a llttlo gathering in
his apartments nnd an Impromptu muslcalo
was given which was rather unique In its
way. Alt of the selections save two were
for the violin nnd Sig. NIcollnl sang , showIng -
Ing that his voice has lost none of Its charm
and sweetness.
That string music preponderate' ! was duo
to the fact , that Slg. Nlcollnl is an enthusiast
over violins , and has spent many thousands
of dollars In collecting rare instruments , fit
his collection Is nn Antoninus Stradlvarms ,
a Nlcolaus Amati , which cost him $ ii,000 ; an
Andreas Amati and n Paolo Alagini , his
latest acquisition. This Instrument he pur
chased.hist week from n dealer in this city.
The price paid for it was $2,500 , and yester
day was the time selected by Sig. Nicolinl to
have shown to n Tow friends thu rare tone of
this aud some of the other violins.
The nrogram was ns follows : Concerto
for two violins. J. S. Bach , Alcssrs. Nuhan
Franko and Sinsholmor ; piano solo , rhap-
sodlo bv Liszt. Air. Alax Licbllng ; violin solo ,
Roman/o. by WilhchnJ , Air. Nahan Franko ;
"Salvo Dlmora , " from "Faust. " Sig. Nlco-
llni ; duottlnl for violins , by Godard , Alcssrs.
Italian Franko nnd Sinshcimcr ; Romanzo in
F , by Beethoven , Air. Bernard Sinsholmcr.
Alma. Patti came into Iho room just as
Slg. Nlcollni had finished sincltiK nnd was
very angry because he had not called hnr lo
hear him.
Atnoncr these present at the muslcalo
were : Edward Rosewater of Omaha , Slg.
Do Vivo , Einilio Pizzl , the composer ; Atar-
shall P. Wilder , Slg. Borilll and Air. Hauser.
There was still another interesting llttlo
incident in Almo. Paul's parlor Sunday
ulghl , when the prima donna presented n
diamond ring of throe circlets of gold , three
diamonds and six rubles lo Airs. Gcorgo R.
Gili'hrlst of Ono Hundred and Six
teenth street. The embroidered din
ner sot winch Airs. Gllchrlst gave to
Mmo. Patti some time ago has just been
sent back from the World's fair. It
consists of sixty pieces in all , designed nnd
embroidered by Airs. Glichrist herself , so
that no two pieces uro exactly nllko. While
orchids , delicately shaded with pale green
and yellow , form the designs.
The men having in charge the proposed
subscription ball lo bo given in honor of iho
Yale University Glee nnd Banjo clubs on
the ovei'lng of December 28 , have decided to
place the management ; of that affair in the

General Mulcahy was a member of the

a in Hilary record of which his companions
are proud , His death was a surprise to his
'ompanlons , none of whom seem to have
tnown of his recent dangerous Illness , as
Iho modesty that characterized the Hfoof
this grand old soldier sccme.l to bid him to
still ' -hold the fort" without a signal ot dis
tress.
Ho was one of the very few men who , hav
ing been broveltcd n general , over refused
to bo known by other than his rank of
colonel , nnd hence as "Colonel Mulcahy" ho
was always known.
General Alulcahy was over 70 years oU
nnd leaves n wife and several sons and
daughters. It was his request that ho
should bo buried under the auspices of the
Loyal Legion , and Commander Alajor Furay
called a mooting of the Nebraska com

Ono of lilt Early Kxporloncca.
The death of General Alulcahy recalls
ono of the sensational episodes ot Omaha's
early history. In 1870 Alulcahy was a
lawyer just working his way Into n practice
und being considered well versed in legal
knowledge ho was elected n justice of the
peace. Among the cases which engaged hla
judicial attention was that in which a young
fellow named Dolau was a defendant In a
criminal action for adultery. Alulcahy was
naturally anxious to make a sure case , as ho
hud yet n reputation to make , and it was
claimed at the time that ho exceeded the
functions of hlsofllco In his effort to procure
evidence against Dolan.
Ono night Alulcahy and Jerry AlcChoa no ,
who was .it that time a constable , started
out nrmod with a warrant forDolan's arrest.
They found lucir man iu an old slmnty at
Twelfth und California , streets. Alulcahy
stationed himself at ono door and sent Mc-
Choano to the other , with the Idea of choos
ing a. moment for the arrest when the culprit
could bo caught in a compromising position.
At the proper time the olHccrs invaded the
house and placed Dolan under arrest. The
prisoner asked for time tOKctsomu clothes
which ho wanted to tnko with him and , not
oxpccling rcslstcncc , ho was allowed lo do
so. Dolan opened an old sr.Urhel , ostensibly
to got the garments , but instead produced a
Icnlfo , with which ho rushed ut his captors.
Dohrn was powerful man , and soon hud the
best of the argument. A deadly thrust of
the long-bludcd knlfooponed a mortal wound
n McChoano'H stomach , and Alulcahy was'
also suveroly wounded.
The murder caused a great excitement ut
the time , and a mob wan quickly formed
with the avowed Intention of lynching
Dolan. A ropu was procured und tlio mur
derer's chances of life wore momentarily
waning , whan some of the cooler heads Interposed -
torposed and Dolau was saved for trial.
Judge Ravage and Dr. Cleorgo it. Alhlor
were among those whom Dolnu had to
thank for his roncuoit lease of life.
AlcChouno survived Ins injuries but a
short timo. Ho died in a llttlo frnmo house
which stood on thu corner , now occupied by
the Barker block , uud faced Furnain street.
Alulcahy recovered from his injuries and
lived to finish a long and useful life. Dolan
was convicted of murder iu iho second do-
grou and was sentenced to imprisonment for
life. Ho had served but a short time when
ho succeeded in making his escape. Every
effort was made lo recapture him , but with
out successand his fate has romuluoU a
mystery to this day.

The apathy which has characterised OOP | 1
man social circles for some weeks has given t |
way to Increased plans for entertainments
during the winter months.
Nearly all of the different societies have
decided upon some entertainment In the
near future. The Omaha Turnvoroln is now
actively engaged In rehearsals and othci
preparations for the operetta "Dlo Xlllor-
thaler. " which is to bo given on December it ,
at Gcrmanla hall.
Thi ) program on this occasion will doubtless -
less bo Interesting nnd entertaining to n
S1 ! ' ! c8reo- Vocal nnd Instrumental innate
will also bo presented. Gymnastic exercises
under dlrecnion of Instructor Watzcnborn
will add another feature of Interest espe
cially enjoyable to the students of physical
cultuio.
Crlrlir.ttcil In ( Joixl Slylo.
Interest In the usual Wednesday oven-
Inn meetings of the boars' division
of the Turnvorcln was heightened
iiy the fact of the announcement
of Sorrotary J. Schertowy's marrlago
which was constimnmtcd several weeks ago.
It had also bocn made public among "tho
initiated" that W. Schulu , another member
of the bear family , was to celebrate his
birthday at this timo. The fiu-t that a lika
occasion had been celebrated fora third
member , H. Beselin , was unknown to most
until th-it party entered and unbosomed the
secret ,
Joy was unconllned until the hands on the
clock indicated that another day was soon
to dawn. The Hither Quartet club furnbhod
the music.
I.lrclrrUniiix Kiitnrtnlnniont.
All arrangements have been completed for
the r.icdorkraiu entertainment to bo given
tonight at the hall of the society mi Tenth
and Farnatn streets. Comic recitations ,
vocal and Instrumental miishi and amateur
theatricals will 1111 out the program lor the
evening. Under direction of thu well known
artist , .losi-ph Ciahin , a mixed choir cspo-
dally will render several selections , The
monthly entertainments of thU character
have shown that they are a great drawing
card to members of the singing society , their
families and friends , nnd It is expected that
on tins occasion the hall will , as on the last ,
bo crowded to its utmost cxiont.
SHuiiKL'rhiiiiil U In It.
The Omaha Saongcrbund Is actively en-
gngcd in preparing a program for a musical
treat to bo mvon next montn. probably on
the 17th. The next usual nodal meeting has
therefore been omitted. On the last men
tioned date the celebration of the llrst an
niversary of the vuruln is ulsD to bo cele
brated , and Weber's nmsic hall will redound
with choice selections by a singing society
having few superiors in thb western
country.
Appointed to fill u V.lfiinoy.
At the last adjourned meeting of'tho Turn-
vereln Member Julius ICrlesel was'appointed
to temporarily lilt the position of chairman
of the entertainment committee , which R ,
Stein hud resigned. Alcmbors Weber ,
Blocdel and Doyle having also placed their
resignation before the meeting the latter' *
