The suggestion made by The Dee that flower show be given In this city sometln during the winter , tlio proceeds to go to worthy charity , lias caused considerable tal among the leading people of Omaha. Chlcai lias just completed a chrysanthemum she that for beauty , variety and the unlvcrs Interest shown has not been rivalled in ar city In the country. The flower show hi been the talk of Chicago for several weel and the Omaha people who had the pleasui of seeing the exhibit aru enthusiastic ovi the wonderful blooms displayed , and they ni anxious that such a show be given her Whllo It Is not expected that Omaha ecu rival Chicago In the wealth or elaboratenei of the display , ( hero are enough florists 1 Omaha , who would no doubt be glad to cot tribute to the affair for the prlvllef of soiling their flowers. A flower she could be made much more populi than a charity ball , whose patrons are nece sarlly confined to the exclusive sets , ar would provo much more of an attraction I every way. It would not need to bo a dl tlnctlvcly chrysanthemum fair , but n flowers might be Included , thereby adding rich variety to thedisplay. . Some such she should be an annual feature of Omar fashionable life , just as the horse show ar the flower show have become BO much n pa of Now York , Baltimore , Philadelphia ar Boston swelldom or the citrus fair In L < Angeles. There were several very beautiful as we as very happy social entertainments the pa week , the mualcalo at the rcsldenco of M S. A. McWhorter bringing out the swells I gratifying numbers for Trinity's benefit , reception or two assisted In the general rour and weddings and card pirtles added sainte to the feast. This week promises to bo qul as lively. A Knrccnnfill Mimlrnln. From a critical standpoint and a socl standpoint as well , the event of the week vu the musicale given Tuesday evening at tl residence of 3. A. McWhorter , esq , undi the auspices of the Parish Aid society i Trinity calhedral. It might with entli propriety have been called a house warn Ing on the part of Mr. McWhorter , for i many of the guests It was their first gllmp : of what Is generally considered the ham somcat of Omaha. residences. Tl house Invites a critical cstlmat Tor In many respects 11 Is unlll any other mansion In the metropolis. H no mcro collation of picturesque Incident tor It gives one the Instant Impression i an articulate whole. The exterior Is boldl simple , and properly so , as the classic Dor order seems to dominate the design , a fo pleasing touches of detail In the Ionic sty being evident In the second story ar dormers. The grounds are exceedingly ample ar nro surrounded by a high , artlstlcall fashioned Iron fence , which gives the heir of one of Omah.i's solid citizens an air i excluslvcness quite In Keeping with the gci oral character of the structure. A pretl little oval flah pond and fountain ornamen the lawn , suggestive of a charming spot I summer. The carriage and foot entranci are close together and are cleverly arrange so to help the wide , hospitable effect to tl approach. The front steps are of pure whl -limestone , very wide nn.il easy. The drive on the south side nnd one alights on a larf white stone platform nnd ascends coi vonlently arranged steps to the porch floi In front of the main door. The roof of II carriage entrance , the main porch and ve anda are effectively combined. The verani Is very wide nnd has a wldo balustrade i brown stone , the columns being fluted ar thoroughly Doric In design. The whole a pect of this quarter Is delightfully refresl Ing , a pleasant spot In hot summer day There Is an uncovered phtform In froi of the dining room , which suggests a cai flcrvatory , whllo the main entrance Is vei Inviting. The front doors fold back In sue a. manner as to glvo the effect of a wlc panelled recess to the vestibule door , whU Is made of one large sheet of beveled pla glass massively framed In wood. Thei are recessed seats on each side of the ei trance , the threshold being In white marbl while the vestibule Is beautifully tiled. Tl largo glass door admits the visitor to e Inner vestibule of fine oak panelling , In fa all the wood \\ork around the entrance Is i fine quartered oak. Passim ; a handson portiere the main hall Is reached , a promlnei feature of which Is a spacious terra cot fireplace , which , with oak floor , seats ar panelling , gives a characteristic air to tl place. The library , which also serves i a sitting room , Is to the right of the entram and Is finished In curly birch. From tl hall a glimpse Is caught of the main stal case , which Is approached through a shor Wide corridor. Instead of placing the stal case In the front of the house , which usual with most architects , the designer the McWhorter residence placed It In tl rear , and rightly , too , seemingly , when Is Intended to lead to private apartments , i In the case of all residences. The stal case la too often treated as a mere plcco stock furniture In the entrance hall , con pelllng the members of trie family not li tercsled In the casual caller to run tl gauntlet or seek the servanU' stairs to reac the second floor. Any change , therefor from these commonly accepted tenets of tl architects Is gladly welcomed. Opposite the staircase are the drawing ai music rooms , which are most happily planne The music room Is by no moans a me adjunct to the drawing room , although sma and opening Into the drawing room throiif detached Ionic fluted columns , for It c : easily bo curtained off wllh material th will not Interfere with the sound. Slttlt at the grand piano the musician has a fii view of the staircase , with Us beautlt Stained glass windows , white oak panellli and beams , and Is a fit sanctum for tl hostess , Mrs. McWhorter , who Is an accor pllshed musician. The dining room Is off the opposite end the corridor and has a wldo opening- Into tl breakfast room , so that the two cm bo throv together at pleasure. These rooms a finished In mahogany , with oak flooi panelled walnscoatlng and beam celling. Ilai of the breakfast room. Uthe servants' dlnli room. The kitchen is well shut off. Tl principal doors on the first floor are slldli doors , and those opening Into the dlnli and drawing rooms are curved and slli into circular walls. This was done as a mater tor of convenience. Curved sliding doors a something new , but they work well. Tl "bedroom arrangements on the second flo are very satisfactory. All are large ai airy , nnd the family rooms can be thrown t gother by opening wldo sliding doors. / the bed rocms have soutn or cast fronl It was amid these surroundings , wl tnagnlflcant furniture and the most beautlf chrysanthemums ever seen , ln Omaha , th themuslcale was held. The drawing roe and library were provided with seats , t music room being the coign of vanta utlllicd by the artists who made the evenli so much of a pleasure to the 150 cues present.

Within a few days the managers of the public library will Inaugurate an Innovation in the system of finding lists which will bo very acceptable to the patrons of the In stitution. Instead of having the cntlro find ing list bound in ono volume It will bo di vided , nnd each class of literature will bo listed In a separata catalogue. This list will b ? printed and bound in a convenient form and copies will bo Issued to the patrons of the library at first cost , which will prob ably be about 10 cents a volume. In this way each rcuder can have a list for his own use at home nnd look up such books as ho wants at his leisure , Instead of using the lists at the library The new system Is similar to that now used in Chicago and other largo cities , and will be a material Im provement on the previous method. The new catalogue of fiction and juvenile fiction will bo ready for the printer tomorrow , and the lists of works on history , biography and travels will bo published as rapidly as they can be prepared by the librarian. In the future the library board will bold occasional examinations for applicants for positions as assistants , and no one will bo appointed who has not successfully passed this examination. The first examination was held recenlly , at which there were six applicants. The ono whoso answers were most satisfactory was given an appointment , and all future vacancies will be filled In the same manner. The complete set of the drawings and specifications of the United States patent office , which has been deposited at the library by Judge Dundy , Is regarded as one of the most valuable additions to the catalogue. The set has been coveted by the library board for some lime and Is valued at upwards of $3.000. The cases for the Byron Reed collection are ready for finishing and will soon be In their place In the library building.
