TTII3 OMAHA DAILY HKK; SUNDAY, AUGUST 24, 1902. SOCIETY TARES ON NEW LIFE Had of Vecatin Tim 8eU Local Puli Btatiag Futer. NEAR FUTURE LIKELY TO SEE SOME DOINGS Iat Week the Bwaleat la a Leaa While for the Smart Folks ( Omaha Thlr Vlaltera. Ther wa a general quickening of Dmaba'e fashionable life last week that en tourages the hope that society la going to rake up after Its long summer lethargy and realty do something worth while. There Was really a great deal going on, that Is, for this time of year, more In fact than had been chronicled for a whole month before. To begin with, people are beginning to eome back to town again and In such num bers as promise to soon restore the long disorganized ranks of the fashionables and bike things possible. These borne comings, together with the cool evenings, hare In duced a number of Informal Indoor affairs, while the presence of several visiting girl has occasioned a number of afternoon af fairs, luncheons and dinner of more or less onsequence, And then there was the Craln-Wakeley redding, an event In Itself worthy the at tention of society even those who were not invited because the bride chose to change ber mind and have a home wedding Instead of waiting until October, as was the orig inal Intention (according to the very few Who knew anything about It before the en gagement was announced), and closing her career as a leader of the amarteat and most exclusive set with a wedding of the kind generally satisfactory, to society. But then, It's a bride's privilege to change her mind, and of course, everybody can't be Invited to a home wedding, so society has found Soros satisfaction In being able to contribute this charming young woman to Bprlng fceld's smart set, as It cannot keep her It nlt. CThe Interstate tennis tournament, on all eek at the Field club, practically con densed the doings of ths younger set, and some of the others, too, within the bound aries of that Institution. With their pro verbial hospitality, ths members of the Shield club put aside all recollection of a certain time not so awfully long ago when certain members of the golf contingent of the Country club failed to treat some of their own golfers as courteously as they might, considering that they happened to be their guests, and Invited the Country club people over for the week. Yes. they came and enjoyed the royal treatment they received, and all of the girls came, too, and there were not very many dinners and luncheons at the Country club last week In consequence. Everybody was there and flirted and danced and gossiped and said aweet nothings to each other and Incident ally watched the game. The summer girl with her gorgeous sun shade and stunning gown and "early" hat of white felt or some other clotn ot sub dued shade that by the way Is wonder fully fetching and restful after vivid green veil which we all must admit, now that It Is passing, was awfully trying to half the women who wore It In spite of Its Im mense popularity. And there was the summer man, too. In his summer suit and Panama hat, presenting an altogether ele gant and Glbonesque appearance as he strolled about singly and In groups in a mors or less amiable frame of mind, tor, to tell the truth, the tennis men were the lions of the 'hour and the local society man's noss 4as somewhat out ot Joint In consequence', save In cases where the vis iting men were not sufficiently numerous to go round. The chaperone was there, too and thereby hangs a tale that these Very estimable ladles do not countenance at all, that the debutantes smlls about and that makes the men fairly glare when ever It Is mentioned, but It Is going the rounds, nevertheless, and has to do with certain little Indiscretions that society has very charitably called fada. And then there hr.s been the Musical festival, which of courae soulety saw prop erly "opened" and really enjoyed, Judg ing by the numbers in which they attended and promise to attend. The local society man, and we are told the society man la general, especially the college boys and those who have sum mered at the places where fsshlonable people congregate, has a new fad that Is truly extraordinary and easily the tri umph of all the affectations that society spasmodically adopts and generously for gives In each other the Ch-abley walk. There have been several cases of It about towa for the last month, but It is only within the fortnight that It has developed In numbers. Like the grandeur of ths Yellowstone, It "deflo description and has to be seen to be appreciated." To the casual observer it would seem that the masculine half of upperdom had suddenly gone lame with a limp that Is a cross be tween that produced by some temporary a fleet ion of the hip and the agony inci dental to tight shoes, combined with a forward bend of the body and a long stride i that gives to Its devotee a truly remark able appearance that Is only Increased by ths popular style of summer suit as pre scribed by the fashionable tailor. We have received from across the water a copy ot the bon ton English plctoral weekly, the King, containing a atrlklng full length portrait of Mrs. Frank Morris Avery, well known In this city, resplendent la the presentation gown In which she mads her bow before the king. Mrs. Avery will be remembered as a former Omaha girl who lived here with her mother, Mrs, Clark, until grown to womanhood and also as the bride-to-be of an Omaha man. Lieutenant William O. Doaoe, an admirer of her child hood day. Front her picture, friends ot Mrs. Avery cannot help remarking that she is growing constantly more handsome and should she, after her coming marriage favor omana with her presence even for occv slonal vlsita, as In the past, ahe will con slltute a constellation scintillating through tae waoie social firmament.
