The linportfinco of being In earnest seems
to t > o tliu nll-absortillig toplo which I oc-
tupyliiK lovely woman'B inltitl during this
present fast-disappearing season of hunt ,
when every kind of empty frivolity , trivial
gaiety and Innocent fun of any sort what
ever hns been laid aside with those cap
tivating ROWDH nnd languishing glnncci
which caused go tunny heart throbs during
Uio fosltvu winter season.
Old Father Time Is apparently striving
to bo In everybody's good books by doing
everything In his power to make the time
pass < | iilcdy ! ami his efforts hnvu cci
lolnly so far been crowned with success , for
In spite of the general absence of brilliant
ovcnUi and social functions to mnrU each
day und inako It a pleasant one In thu so
ciety world , no ono Is heard to complain
that the ho'irs drag , or thai the weeks have
leaden feet. On the contrary the energetic
dames and debutantes find that they will
never have tlmo In which to accomplish
ono halt of the tasks Mint they had set
themselves to perform during thu long daya
of this Mcason of sackcloth and ashes.
Mercury would tliul It necessary to borrow -
row the wings of Pegasus to bo able to
begin to keep pace with the rapid movo-
mentH of those favored beings who consti
tute the gay world of Omaha , In the varlei
and numberless pursuits upon which they
arc ono nnd all at present engaged , for
now that the Held of opinion has widened ,
and monotonous unanimity no longer holds
unchallenged away , till nro eagerly availing
themselves of their freedom and dipping
deep Into these of the moro eober studies
for which they have u penchant. "Let us
ngreo to differ on the subject of how Lent
ehould bu kept , " has been the unvoiced
motto unanimously choeen by the members
of the gay world and who can question
the wisdom of their choice , for of what use
la It ever to endeavor to force the round
man or woman Into the square hole , or
vice versa ? The multitudinous waya and
methods adopted by the fair sex for recu
perating their spent forces after the vicissi
tudes of the season's dissipations would flll
a small volume and form food for Inter
esting and amusing study nnd reflection.
Their Invcntlvo genius has seemingly left
no Btono unturned and the dear creatures
nro dlspaylng equally remarkable talent In
the way In which they arc devoting thcm-
nelves to their now and all-absorbing faiU
to the distraction of tiio o of their friends
who would have them unveil the light ot
their once beaming countenances , Instead
of always appearing as If under a cloud ,
with that preoccupied expression which Is
the mark of the earnest student. Those
who , dining the season , wcro busiest In de
vising novel forms of entertainment for
their friends and planning elaborate recep-
tlona , luncheons tie luxo and the like uro
now the energetic leaders In the deeper
walks of llfo and nro displaying a well-
nigh Insatiable thirst for knowledge and
when lovely woman stoops to conquer , man
nwnlts the result with bated breath , and
the minds of the sterner sex arc consequently
quently muchly ( bewildered nnd exercised as
to the results 6t these sudden and total
changes of minds and vocations.
Few Indeed have been the diversions offered
bj-tho society world of Omaha to Its numerous
devotees during the last six days. Functions
of every kind and affairs of varying magni
tude and Importance have , ono and nil. been
conspicuous by their absence , with the ex
ception of a few events which have been
much enjoyed nnd made the most of by
these fortunate enough to receive Invita
tions thereto. Two or three card parties ,
notably that given by'Mrs. W. S. Hector , n
dance , a 'birthday ' party and a .kenslngton
have done their utmost to relieve the other
wise unbroken dullness of the last week.
Cupid and Hymen , those Irrepressible nnd
popular gods , have clearly shown that they ,
at any rate , nro not to bo ousted or frowned
down by King Lent , und so far , during
each week of his short reign , have smuggled
In n couple of weddings or moro , which
have been Joyfully welcomed by all con
cerned and for which the marriage bolls
have rung out Just as Joyously as If there
were no such thing In this usually gay
world as a season of mourning.
It almost seems ns If the noble proposi
tions of the social calendar uro fated to
dwindle nwny Into nothingness and vanish
Into thin nlr , so unmercifully has Us poor
head been humbled In the dust , or perhaps
It would bo moro correct to say ashes.
Still , It gives Bonio promise of life , nnd al
though Its feelings are undoubtedly hurt and
It naturally feels crestfallen , It manages to
linger on , buoyed up with the sure hope that
aa soon us the iinovontful reign of the pres
ent potentate has coma to an end , It will
resume Its growth , regain Its wontud popu
larity und , like the spreading chontmit tree ,
upraise Its lofty , for-rcachlng branches over
Us newly found subjects , nnd paradise re
gained ,

BErtLIN , March } . Tile press devotes
much space 'this ' week to the Samoan ques
tion. The malls have brought a number ot
letters from Germans at Apia , and the leadIng -
Ing papers In many cases describe the oc
currences differently from the English and
American newspapers , putting iho blame
upon the English speaking ofllcials. The
comments of the papers also differ , but they
all agree that the tripartite government is a
failure nnd the Idea of the partition of tlie
islands Is again much ventilated. The or
gans of the colonial party oppose this sug
gestion energetically , ns It would put on
end to German annexation of the group.
A writer In the Colonial Zeitung , the
loading organ of the party , attempts to
show that the partition of the Islands , oven
l peaceful , would Inevitably lead to a
much worse situation.
The correspondent of Iho Associated
press hears on good authority that an entire -
tire change In the personnel of the repre
sentatives of the three powers will bo the
basis of understanding to bo arrived at ,
r.nd that It will Include 'the ' recall of the
American chief Justice , Chambers ; United
States Consul Osborne , British Consul
MaxBo. Dr. Raffel , the German president
of the municipal minncll , and Herr Hose ,
the German consul. It Is understood that
their removal Is necessary In order to 10-
establlsh peace and order In 'tho ' Islands.
The German olllelals do not attempt to deny
this , though they insist that Dr. Raffel and
Hevr Rose acted correctly , but , they add ,
It has long been intended to relieve 'them '
at their own request.
Some of the German newspapers contend
that a. surrender In this mutter without sim
ilar conccFslons on the other sldo will mean
a grave loss of German prestige.
The opposition lo the meat Inspection bill
in the agrarian and conservative press has
gained force and violence this week. Th's '
was duo to the erroneous Idea that tlio iu-
spcctlm of American Imports will be Ices
revere and edlclcnt than In the ease of
homo products.
The rejection of part of the provisions of
the military bill by the centrist members
of thu budget commission has created u
massing that Is explained by the fact that
the center la waiting for concessions by
> the ultrninono Interests. This has , It Is
said , been agiccd upon , and the center will
veto for the bill.
H was reported that ( lie concessions Include -
cludo the appointment ot a Catholic depart
ment , a chief of a Catholic section of the
ministry of public worship , the amending of
the municipal election law 'to give the cen
ter domination over the Rhino cities , and It
Is also claimed that the Bundcsrath will
sanction the repeal of the ostraclzatlon of
'tlie ' Jesuits und other orders.
The olllelals of 'tha ' German foreign oflleo
nay considerable tlmo will probably clapao
before tdo claims for damages Illcd by Ger
man manufacturers and mcrctants In Cuba
during the war will be proven Thr o claims
now amount to several million dollars ,
mainly by throe llnna , for factories and
plantations burned by the Cuban Insurgenis
The question as to whether the Spuiiisli.
Cuban or American government IB respon
sible Is another difficulty.
