In splto ot the overwhelming defeat which
Dame Society received nt the hands of the
uoldlcrs last week , that very sprightly lady i
"bobbed up serenely" with the now week
and sot BO rapid a pace that oven the deadly
variety of beat and winds which usually
whom In the first few days of September
nnd hurlg a deadly blow nt social doings
could not otop the giddy whirl of receptions
nnd marrlaicrt ? and luncheons through which
this most exacting queen led her devotees.
That the social ball will be kept on a lively
roll for the next six months in unquestioned.
Already preparations are being made to
roako the Ak-Sar-Ben court ball surpass In
brilliancy Its predecessors , though the
nunea of the royaf part nnd the extent of
the festivities nro a atato accret nt present.
Nevertheless , the society girl Is In a per
petual state of worrlment nnd her pretty
brow In ns lasting n state of wrinkles as
she endeavors to solve the momentous ques
tion of what she will wear , whether blue or
pink Is her peculiar color nnd whether Miss
A. or Mlns D. In the most fashionable
modlito. Then come the numerous recep
tions nnd teaa to Introduce the fair young
buds to the nlrwidy reigning belles and
beaux ; nnd If more may bo relied upon , a
very charming bouquet of American Bcau-
tlca will grace the social rcahn this year.
But this Is another Btnto secret too pro
found to solve nt this uncertain fitago , for
the fashionable world Is most reticent In
making known Us plans before they nro
fully In working order.
The circus was the flrst of the series of
entertainments on the social program. And
the four hundred forgot their conservatism
for the nonce and Joined In the frolic and
fun. A few even disdained the reserved
neat section , but sat on the top board nnd
wung their feet nnd ate peanuts and had
n glorious tUno. There were chle gowns
there , too , and the forerunners of the early
fall hats , for the society girl never forgets
the Important part she plays In the pan
orama ot llfo nnd her costumes ndd much
to ita success.

If the present scheme for a choral-orches-1
tral organization goes through It Is an assured - '
sured fact that Omaha will be alive musically
this season. Mr. George Holbrook , the
former successful secretary of the Apollo
club , and the undersigned together have
formulated a plan whereby a successful per-
mancnt organization can be put up. The
membership will be limited to forty Inetru-
mentalists , professional and advanced ama
teur ( If arrangements can be made with
the Musical union ) , nnd 100 voices , profes
sional , semi-professional and advanced ama
teurs. The concerts nlll bo given regularly
and will be of various natures. The flret
work to be taken up will bo , In all proba
bility , "St. John'a Eve , " a beautiful nnd
somewhat difficult work by Frederic Cowen ,
An admission fee will be charged and will
be redeemable In tickets , so that a member
can either give away his tickets to bis
friends or dlspcoo of them on the market ,
thereby refunding to himself his cash sur
render. Concerts will be , of course , by sub
scription. Any one Intere tfd In this move
ment and anxious to be Identified with It will
help matters by sending name and address

but who are not singers or players , will bo

very welcome , as such people will bo wanted
for the press committee , program and printIng -

one long , strong pull In the direction of
good music. Who will be the flrst to co
operate In thin work of trying to rise above
the Cake-walk-Blowlng-up-of-the-Malno-
Llttle Willie standard ?
Of course , we must look for opposition from
those who should be first to help. That Is ,
from the professional musician. There will
be those who will stand aside and try to
draw others aside. Some will try to pre
vent their pupils from joining a society for
the promotion of the best In art. Well , there
were some tvho ridiculed Noah , when he
was building the nrk , but later they were

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.j )
Superintendent Wolfe of the public schools
has prepared a list of boundaries for the
different schools and pupils will bo com
pelled to observe the name. Mr. Wolfe says
that owing to the crowded condition of ccr-
j tain school buildings there may bo some In-
I convenience to pupils at the opening of
school on Monday. This , however , Is not
expected to last any length of time , as It Is
thought that everything will be running
smoothly nfter the llrst day or two. The
Board of Education has rented several rooms
In order to provide for the Increase In the
number of pupils , but more rooms are still
needed. An effort Is now being mndo by
Superintendent Wolfe nnd the members of
the board to accommodate all the children
and It Is believed thnt school patrons will
nppreclnto these efforts even though the re
sults nre not entirely satisfactory to every
Individual. In all cities eorao people llvo
farther from school buildings than others
nnd In all cities some children nro unnble
to nttend the nearest school. Upon the com
pletion of the school house to be erected nt

Dili Tint Attempt Sulolilf.
Thomna Brodner , a well known plumber
of South Omaha , takrs exceptions to a pub
lished Item that appeared Saturday stating
that he had attempted suicide by drinking
some carbolic acid. Mr. Brodncr states that
he took the add by mistake , thinking that
it was castor oil. He says that three of his
children nre sick with diphtheria and he got
some carbolic acid with which to disinfect
the house. The bottle containing tbo oil wns
so near like the one containing the ncid that
he made a mistake. Dr. Schindcl was called
and administered soothing potions and Mr.
Brodner Is all right once more. He saya he
never once thought of committing suicide.
