Last week brought fulfillment of ths
prophecy that there would be plenty doing
when society got home, for, while Omaha's
fashionables are still pretty well scattered
aooui over mo iu.ee ui ina eariu, iu
of September haa coma and with it many
. of those who summered out of town, and
there has been a promising Jot of affairs,
J Uttle and fairly big. that, with th two
laree weddings of Wedresd? end the three
large dan".':ig parties grven for tha college
aet, mad 5 tha week seem lively Indeed. Of
course there is a lot of gossip In the air,
for socltty, like everybody elae, haa to -gd
away from home to get -tha real news about
Itself. But there Is plenty of news-making
material right here at borne just at'proeent,
by the way, and besides thla there Is al-
ways Fort Crook, which. Ilka any other
army post, always abounds In Interesting
, possibilities, especially when there chances
. to be a number of bachelor officers stationed
there, and tha Ttjlrtleh Infantry la partic
ularly well equipped In this retipect. And
two of these same young officers are con
tributing Just at present to a Uttle affair
that society is watching with Interest. One
of tham, a young captain, had been all de
votion to one of the sweetest of last Sea
son's debutantes and all seemed well until
tha mora experienced charms of a young
divorcee, conceded to be the most fasci
nating woman in socioty, suddenly turned
jthe officer's attention. But he, too, wns
destined soon to learn the meaning of
fickleness,' for It has been perfectly evident
for a few weeks that the lady now prefers
tha society bfa youoa lieutenant. The cap
tain la doing duty out of town just at pros
ant. . "
The oil Important question going the
rounds of the club verandas and other
fashionable rendesvous Just now Is, "What
ta tha really correct thing to wear at the
horse show?" It is not that Omaha society
Is so -unaccustomed or uninitiated In the
correct thing that It ordinarily needs post'
Ing on how to appear at fashionable func
tions, but the fact la, rather, that the
privilege of creating nshions in the way of
extraordinary Innovations does not extend

blnlng the" appointments of two such ex
tremes aa the drawing rocrm and the stable
society should feel the need f a little
coaching.
Plenty of people In Omaha know all about
horse shows, hut there, are many others
who do not, for the simple reason that they
have sever chanced to be In one of the
cities' where they are held during the aea
aon. Ordinarily one rather expects some
anxiety among the women when there Is an
unusual social function in prospect, but on
this occasion It seems to' be the men who
are inquiring whnt they shall wear, and to
them be.it aald that that depends upon tha
place from where they expect-to view, the
show. For those who expect to participate,
correct riding or driving costumes will be
required, of course, and these costumes will
ba permissible In the boxes or on tha board
walk during, tha evening. For tha men whp
will occupy boxes or season seats, nothing
abort of full dress will be proper; tha high
hat (not tha opera hat, remember), white
vest, gloves and all of the accessories to
full dress. For the others who' will oooupy
less oonsplouous seats, the business suit
will be allowable. The women are respond
ing beautifully, and the milliners and
modistes of tha city are being taxed to
provide costumes such as local fashionable
femininity haa never troubled itself to pro
vide before. These costumes are hot full
dress, but rather the most elaborate recep
tion toilets. The women who will not oc
cupy boxes will bo quite proper in their
"best frocks," whatever they chance to be.
The boardwalk will ba open to all, and hers

Tha New York City Federation, that
greet combination of clubs of Greater New
York, will hold Its annual meeting October
28. and the prospect Is that Its attendance
Will bo large. It will meet at the New
Astor hotel, and the matter of supporting
a deoconesa for the stricken St. Marks
district, which Includes the majority of the
families of the General Slocum disaster,
will be taken up as one of the Important
features of the session. Mrs. Dore Lyon la
president of tha federation, which Is In
most flourishing condition, and. It Is said,
will support Its president for the presidency
of the New York State Federation at the
annual state meeting this fall. The morn
Ing session will be in . the hands of the
public safety committee and the afternoon
will be given over to tbe consideration of
educational matters. Among other topics
the equalisation of teachers' wages will be
discussed. The discrimination in favor Of
men, which haa become eo pronounced, not
alone In the local schools. It Is felt is most
unfair, the men being given higher salaries
to start on and reach their maximum sal
ary under much easier conditions than do
the women.
Some estimate of what Just one club
of women can do may be made from the
work of the Woman'a club of Newton Cen
ter, Mass. Organised chiefly -for phllan
throplo work, the club has, during . the
past six years, given about $9,000 to charity
and educational work, public playgrounds.
the Associated Charities, Newton hospital
and the Newton District Nurses' assocla
tlon being among the objects of Its assist
anca. The decoration of schoolrooms and
the supplying of magazines, books and pic
tures, besides the purchase of a 2260 cook
ing plant and a 1175 sioyd plant for the va
cation fcchools has been a part of its work
for education. .
The following letter has been sent out to
the Daughters of the Confederacy and "all
of the women of the south" through the
columns of the Keystone of Charleston by
Mrs. C. Gllliland Aston of the Daughters
of the Confederacy, and there is little doubt
but that her suggestion will be acted upon:
My Dear Sisters: Will you not each and
every one rains your voice with mine in
making: amends for a Jong-neglected duty
slaves?
Of all DPOdIa vhn dwell nn thi ffliA nf
the earth I think these deserve the grandest
monument. Soon all this generation will
have paused- away. Let us hasten with the
worn wniie some still survive.
Confederate veteruns have for some time
teen speaking of raising a monument to
ine southern women. We nnrcit (hl
and thank them for their remembrance of
our seir-aeniais ana nardshlDs. which tried
women's souls. What e:se could have been
expected of us? Our dwr ones were, at the
front While this was the case, we felt we
and country. How different with the slaves.
iney aa 11 lor love of masters, mistresses
and " their children. How nobly did! they
periorm tneir tasks. Their devotion to
ineir owners, vneir raitnrulness in perform
ing their labors and caring for us during
these terribly disastrous years and their
kindness at the surrender, while we r.
powerless and helpless, has never been sur
passedno, nor equaled.
wnen we remember t tha time of thA
surrender ' we were untimiv ri.f.n..i.&
Our. noble, famished, raeged.palrtois were
still away from their homes, and among
us was a band of robbers, wno would not
give wise counsel, but rather the contrary
tO OUr Slaves. I ha Irlnslnna. fcSYm KAn.i
aevouon to us was tne most beautiful
mm earm mis ever witnessed.
From the Mason and 1 ilvnn ltn. tn ,.
gjilf and from the Atlantic to the Pacific
there was not a massacre, house burning
or one of those unmentionable deeds whicii
are now so common In the whole country.
Think of this; 'tis wonderful! Our grati
tude to God and love for tha old-tim
ants should be boundless.
Who wll say thev do not iiuan,. t.
grandest monument tht ha. .
erected? This acknowledgment from us to
them of our appreciation of kindness and
devotion shown by them to their former
owners will 'be ia their last days a beautiful
inougnt 7
10 those of their rap nf tha nnunt
eratlon It will undeceive them as to tha
character of the , southern people, their
former owners: and also show the lovs
between master and servant.
