GETTING READY TO OPEN THE SEASO

With the approach of autumn there I
vvcry Indication that society la about t
move from under the cloud that has hun
above the social horizon for the past fc\
weeks of Iho heated spell. Of course bu
little was expected from society whllo th
mercury was flirting In the vicinity of th
top of the tube , but now that the condition
are becoming more favorable , the Indication
all point to a season of more thau usua
enjoyment and pleasure.
Most of the young men and women who
Jiavo been nt homo during vacation are now
preparing to icturn to their icspcctlvo
schools and colleges nnd during the ncx
few days a number of Important functions
. will occur at which they will bo giicsts o
honor. These will tide things over tint !
the season opens In earnest.
Allcady these people who have been away
to the mountains and the watering places
to cscitpo the heat and discomfitures of n
Kreat city In midsummer arc returning , am
many of the houses that liavo been closci
nro again open nnd the hostesses are readj
to receive their friends. As yet nothing o
importance In the way of entertainments
has been announced , still It Is known that
there Is a full card ready for later dates
In the season. There Is n dearth of wed
ding announcements , but before the turning
of the holidays It fs pietty certain that a
number of the Omalia belles and beaux
will bo fatally hit by the darts of Cupid.
The opinion has always prevailed that so-
. clcty cared little for games that attract the
attention of men. Observations inado dur
ing the past week , however , Indicate that
society has taken hold of tennis with a
grip that It Intends to hold. During the
early days of the tennis tournament It was
seldom that n woman was seen upon the
grounds. As tlmo wore on , members of the
social set began to appear nnd then It was
decreed that tennis was quite the thing.
During the last days of the playing the
grounds were crowded with young women.
and from this tlmo on the game will bo
popular.
The social event of the coming season
will bo the annual ball , given In com
memoration of the coming of Ak-Sar-Hen
II , King of Qulvcrn , nuke of the Seven
Cities of Clbola. This Important event will
occur on Friday evening , September 4 , nt
the Castle , formerly known as the Den , on
North Twentieth street. In honor of the
event the Castle Is being beautifully dec
orated with the royal colors of the king ,
carpets are being laid , divans arc being
located and the Interior of the place Is
rapidly taking on the appearance of an
oriental palace.
There Is considerable curiosity to know
who will be the king nnd who will bo the
queen , but So far no person has been able
to discover the Identity of either.
On the night of the grand ball , when
the royal procession will enter the city , the
masked knights will appear upon the danc
ing floor at the cnstln and march before
the king , who will review them from his
throne of purple and gold. After tills Is
over ho will step from the throne and ad
vance to where the maids of honor are
seated , and from them ho will select the
ono who will reign as queen of Qulvera
during the next twelve months. After the
coronation ceremonies , the ball will begin
- . . . nnd will be continued until nn early hour
the following morning.
