Now that the Horse Show and the Ak-Par-Uen
ball are over one may expect to
Jienr something of what society expects to
tlo this winter, and the Indications are that
society will bgin doing something worth
while before very long. In fact, the season
promises to be more than ordinarily gay
lor there are affairs ahead that must make
It so. Among the earlier things that may
be counted upon are the functions attend
ing the Introduction of the half-doien
young women who will make their debut
this winter, all of which will take place be
fore the holidays.
And then there are some weddings ahead
(hat aught to be announced before long.
Thla week starts off well with a lot of
rmall affairs and not a few really large
ones that will mean entertainment for all.
Of course the Martln-McKenna wedding
Thursday evening will come first with the
fashionable set, but the golden wedding
celebration for Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Perlne
Thursday evening and the Old Settlers' re
union at the home of Mrs. A. J. Poppleton
Thursday will be occasions of more than
ordinary . Interest to many who have
dropped out of the more active social life.
The reception given by the Young Women's
Christian association Monday evening will
call out the largest gathering of the week,
while nearly every afternoon there will be
something of a more or less forma! nature.
It has been prophesied by one young ma
tron that there will be more afternoon
gatherings this winter, and smarter ones,
than for many a season. "Because," she
ays, "there la such a lot of handsome re
ception gowns that will have to be worn
or go out of style."
Kveljrn Dear:
It really does not pay to be away from1
home nt carnival time, Evelyn, for one is
sure to lose a great deal; but those who did
not attend the coronation ball Friday even
ing will never know what they missed and
I greatly doubt, dear, whether nil of those
who did attend will know nil about it,
either. Of course the papers told all about
the coronation, the crowd and that sort of
thlnfftMtttflMM are some thlnga.lhM I can
only tell to you, Evelyn. You know the
society women were dreadfully worried
about the crush that was promised,, but
never again will I doubt the ability of the
board of governors to get around an awk
ward situation. The very large membership
this year threatened to well, it threatened
. great many things besides personal dis
comfort to those who wanted to dance, but
the 'governors adjusted all of that; they
gave society all of the excluslveness It
asked for, and that Is where the Joke came
In, for this very demand enabled the men
to make special concessions to sensitive
feelings of the Four Hundred without giv
ing offense to those who do not happen to
belong. Really, Evelyn, It was an ingenious
bit of management. Of course the court
was made up of society that put It up on
the platform and above the conrmon level,
and then the board went still further and
directed the smart set members to present
their cards at the north door, where they
would receive badges admitting them to the
special rooms. That satisfied them, but you
ought to have' been there when they ar
rived. The dressing rooms proved to bo the
pace back behind the bunting nt the rear
of the throne. It In a series of Irregular
steps, Evelyn; the floor of the back boxes
used at the Horse Show and the only level
where more than four women could stand
at a time had to be reached by a walk thnt
one woman declared was too steep to be
afe for anything but a goat. There were
no check rooms, not even a counter. There
was no mirror, no pins, no powder, no hair
pins, nothing, and there was only one
woman to assist In the removal of -wraps.
The opera coats had to be deposited on the
floor and before long there was not room
'., THE VALUB OP CHARCOAL.
)Fvr People Ktcw How Useful it Is In
Praervlagr Health and Heauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is
the safest and most efficient disinfectant
and purifier In nature, but few realize Its
value when taken Into the human system
for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is remedy that the more you
tako of it the better; It Is not a drug at
all, but simply absorbs the gases and Im
purities always present In the stomach and
Intestines and carries them out of the
system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok
ing, drinking or after eating onions or
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and Improves
the complexslon, It whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and iminently
safe cathartic.
It absorbs the Injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels; it dis
infects the month and throat from the
poison catarrh.
All druggist sell charcoal In one form or
another, but probably tho best charcoal
and the most tor the money is In Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of
the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and
other harmless antiseptics In tablet form
or rather In the form of large, pleasant
tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The dally use of these lozenges will soon
tell In a much improved condition of the
general health, better complexion, sweeter
breath and purer blood, and the beauty
of it is. that na possible harm can result
from their continued use, but on the
contrary, great benefit.
A Buffalo physic un lo speaking of the
benefits of charcoal, aays: advise
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patient
suffering from gas lt stomach and bowels,
and to clear the complexion and purify
the breath, mouth sod throat; I also believe
the liver Is greatly benefited by the dally
use of them; they cost but 2 cent a box
at drug stores, and although In some sense
a patent preparation, yet I believe I get
more and better charcoal In Stuart's Char-
cos I Losenges than la any of la ordinary
coai-ofta! table tO
for the women to walk about. "The Board
Walk." as they named the steep ascent,
was the one place where they could stand
and that a as so full that they literally had
to hold on to each other to keep from fall
In oft the sides. Oh. Evelyn, It was rich
but It was exclusive. Some of the women
would not even try to get in, but went on
up to the gallery, where they sat with their
wraps, and In the meantime there was
every convenience snd pl?nty of room down
In the big Dressing room provided for "the
other women" on the ground floor at the
west end.
I am told that there was still another
dressing room of this sort "up among the
t-.f r- In tho southeast gallery." One of
the girls told me, but I did not try to find
i.. ....i.Jy. Evelyn, being exclusive has Its
disadvantages after all. But the women
appreciated the other side of It and each
played maid for the other, and finally
emerged looking splendidly, though there
rr comparatively few really exceptional
gowns worn among the society women.
Most of them had been worn Before, but
then the Horse Show necessitated so many
new reception gowns that not a few had to
make the best of what they happened to
have In the way of ball gowns.
But the coronation ball comee only once a
year and It Is well that It does, perhaps,
for frequent rrushes like that of Friday
night would be fatal, I am afraid, even to
public spirit such as our women possess.

CHEAPER BUILDING STUFF
Drop In Price of Press Brick En
courages Hope for Further
Reductions,
The fact that pressed brick have Just
been cut from $1.50 to 2 a 1,000 by the large
manufacturers Is taken as a hopeful sign
of cheaper building materials of all kinds
next year. Circulars Just Issued by the
Omaha Hydraulic Press Brick company
give lower prices for next year, effective
at once on red, buff, colonial and dark
gray product, the first named having been
cut from 117.50 to $16. Competition by new
firms at Fort Dodge, Minneapolis and other
places is said to be responsible for the re
duction by the people controlling the trade.
Common building brick, also, is expected to
drop.

WOMAN IK CLUB AND CHARITY
I1 'li
f 1vi i.icmlxii m' ilia 1 riJay clua of Los
Angel, whose handsome club house will
be so well remembered by all whose privi
lege It was to attend the Los Angeles
biennial, are having an experience Just
now and with that same handsome club
house, by which other club women may
well profit.
When the house was built, the mem
bers of the club did not buy up the stock
as they might hsve done and finally, to
help them out, two women of the city,
neither of them club women, bought the
remainder of the controlling amount of
stock. The fact that the members them
selves did not really own the building,
seemed to escape them and they have con
tinued for the last five years to occupy
the building at a rental of $125 a month.
But now the lease has expired and an
wakening has come. They have been In
formed that owing to a general Increase
In the value of city real estate, the club
house property Is now worth $28,500. Instead
of $20,000, the original cost, and they have
the option of buying the place at the In
creased figure or renting it at an Increased
rental.
The women realize they have suffered
for their short slghtedness, but fortunately,
they are better able now to buy the prop
erty at the advanced figure than they
were when it was built. The club has more
than doubled Its membership and now In
cludes 800 of the most Influential women,
socially and financially, of Los Angeles.
Mrs. Joseph Evans Cowles of Los An
geles has been appointed chairman of the
program committee for the next biennial
of the General Federation of Women's
clubs to be held at St. Paul, Minn. Mrs.
May Alden Ward, of Massachusetts and
Mrs. Goodhue of Texas, are the other mem
bers of the committee. Mrs. Decker has de
cided to restore the council of general
directors and presidents of federated clubs
to be held the years between biennial
meetings. These councils formerly were
considered necessary, but five years ago
were allowed to lapse. Now, however,
there seems to be a general demand for
their restoration and Mrs. Decker is quite
willing and the first council will be held
next June, possibly at Chautauqua. Mrs.
Margaret Swan Yardley, former president
of the New Jersey federation. Is chairman
of the committee on arrangements and
will be assisted by Mrs. Edward L. John
son, of Rhode Island, and Mrs. Orr of
Ohio. Mrs John D. Sherman of Chicago
was appointed chairman of the badge com
mittee: Miss Georgia Bacon, of Massachusetts,
of civil service reform; Mrs. Percy Pen-
nybacker, of Texas, of membership.
Miss Alice French (Octave Thanet), presi
dent of the Colonial Dames of Iowa, wa
the guest of honor at a luncheon and recep
tion given Thursday of last week by the
Dames of Dubuque. The society, resident
in Iowa, was organized In 1896 by Mrs.
William Stevens Perry of Davenport, and
had twelve charter members. Mrs. Perry
was its first president, Mrs. Schaffer of
Iowa City Its second and Miss French is Its
third. The Colonial Dames are the most
exclusive patriotic organization In the
United States. Those who would become
members of It must first be Invited and
then prove that their ancestors were com.
missioned officers In the revolution, or
representatives to the general court or in
some way of especial value to their country
during the great crisis. Aside from this.
applicants must have qualifications within
themselves to recommend them to the
society. Following the luncheon, which
was held at the Hotel Julian, last Thurs
day, the Dames gave a reception to the
local chnpter of the Daughters of the Amer
ican Revolution
At a meeting of the English literature
department of the Woman's club held
Wednesday morning Mrs. Paul Harm was
elected leader for the year. A study of
modern English novelists will be taken up
for the year and the meetings will be held
Wednesdays, the same week as the general
club meetings, at 3:15 o'clock.
The members of the Woman's Christian
association have been invited to attend the
golden wedding anniversary reception of
Mr. and Mrs. P. L. Perlne Tuesday evening
at the First Presbyterian church. Mrs.
Perlne was one of the charter members
of the association and is still one of Its
active workers.
The preliminary meeting of the .Needle
Work guild has been called at Trinity
parish house Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock,
that arrangements may be made for the
annual distribution of garments, which will
probably take place early in November.
All women who' ore interested in the work
of the guild are invited to attend.
AH EXPLANATORY STATEMENT.
Messrs. J. L. Drandels A Sons Issue
Special Announcement to
Their Patrons.
We desire to express our regret that the
unavoidable crowding In our store during
Ak-Sa,r-Ben week may have brought some
discomfort to our patrons.
Despite our best efforts, the multitudes
that thronged our store served to handi
cap our service and we feel that we owe
an apology to our city shoppers and our
out-of-town visitors as well for our tem
porary inability to extend to them the
comfort and attention they have a natural
right to expect at Brandels'.
Tomorrow our store will resume Its
natural course. There will be the same
prompt attention, the same roomy accom- j
mouauun mm me same excellent Duying
advantages that characterize this estab
lishment. We will be even more eager
than usual to satisfy your wants after
what may have seemed our neglect of your
comfort.
With the occupation of our great new
building, which will soon be In course of
erection, we enter upon a new era. We
will then be able to properly accommodate
all crowds, no matter what their size.
There will be wider aisles, 'ncreasrd floor
space and greater facilities to Insure ease
In shopping. Our new store will bo seven
stories high. It will extend from 16th to
17th street and from Douglas to the alley.
We beg to thank our out-of-town guests
and our city shoppers for their valued
patronage.

pronounced Impression during the delibera-
j Hons of the International Peace congress.
which as brought to a close today In this
city, nfter many meetings extending
throughout the week. One of those was
that the congress, together with Its numer-
j cms puh!lc gatherings, which were held
under Its auspices, constituted one of the
most remarkable educational Influences
ever observed In America. The second as
pect or conviction was that this year's
congress should prove of vast efficiency to
ward the attainment of universal peace, If
an aroused public sentiment nnd a thorough
expression of the absurdity, and horror of
warfire was to be of any avail whatso
ever. Several Resolutions Adopted.
The congress was adjourned today to
continue its work In 1905 at Lucerne, Swit
zerland. Besides adopting resolutions de
nouncing war and calling for the creation
of International obligatory arbitration
treaties the congress passed upon specific
conditions. One of Its last acts was to
recommend an Inquiry by the powers Into
the Congo Free State, which Is at present
under the personal rule of King Leopold of
Belgium. (
The present Russo-Japanese war was
treated by a resolution calling upon the
emperors of the two countries to end the
conflict nt once. or, that falling, for the
powers to exercise the authority granted by
article xxvll of The Hague pact and Inter
vene so that the war might be terminated.
In this connection the congress suggested
to the powers the adoption of a positive
peace making, peace insuring treaty under
which nil war would be Impossible, except
for a brief period.
One of the most practical acts of the con
gress was to favor the establishment in the
leading cities of the world of branches of
the International Peace bureau at Berne,
so that the masses of the people might be
reared to the understanding that Interna
tional harmony among all people was the
sane and natural principle of life.
Japs and Russians Meet.
Early In the session President Payne said
that representatves of nearly all the great
nations had been given an opportunity
to respond, Introduced Jlro Abrntanl
of Toklo to speak for Japan. Mr. Alira
tanl In the course of his remarks said
he was willing to admit that militarism
was on the Increase In Japan, but, he de
clared, there was good fjround for expecta
tion that when the present conditions were
brought to an end, peace would be the
moving spirit of the nation.
Dr. John Chlrug, delegate for Russia,
asked for r moment to correct a statement
made yesterday by John Burroughs of
England, and this was granted. As Dr.
Chlrug passed to the platforrn, where Mr.
Abratanl was sitting, a woman delegate
arose and said:
"Dr. Chlrug. It would gladden my heart
to see you shake hands with Mr. Abratanl
Russia and Japan In friendship. I would
be most happy."
The Russian answered, as he moved to
ward the Japanese and warmly seized hi
hand, saying, "I am glad to greet a fellow
man."
When Dr. Chlrug had cofiV-luded his state
ment the committee on questions of tha
day reported resolutions. In favor of on
Investigation as to the present government
