With Manawa attrantlnft the younger set
In numbers that have threatened the com
pleteness bf more than one gathering this
ummer and the Field and Country clubs
drawing- Council Bluffs society In numbers
that make whole groups of strangers' on
this side, It should not be many seasons
before the fashionahles of the two cities
have more In common than they seem to
have at present.
The busybodies are Just now rolling a
weet morsel In the way of a reported at
tachment between two young people In one
of the most exclusive circles in society.
She Is a young widow and before her
marriage not so very long ago, was one,
of the most sought after young women in
the fashionable set. He Is a much-traveled
ynu'ng doctor, with an enviable practice,
and had eluded the charms of several sets
of debutantes and not a few of their older
sisters. N
Powerless as women are accused of being
to resist the designs of the milliner It is
a fact, nevertheless, , that these same
women are rebelling more and more against
wearing hats when they are not absolutely
necessary as a protection or a formality.
It Is no uncommon sight nowadays to seo
women even on the downtown streets In
ummer without their hats, while It Is safe
to estimate that two-thirds of the well
dressed women who go out Informally of
an evening wear only a veil over their
heads and these to keep their hair from
being blown Into confusion. The Benson
or the Hanecnm Park cars afford every
day evidence that the summer hat, no
matter how charming a creation It may
be;' has become secondary to comfort un
less It Is necessary.
Those people who .are ,,not fortunate
ertrtligh to be 'enjoying the, summer aoaie
place' where the responsibility of enter
taining falla upon some one else, can't
help but reflect upon the exceeding good
fortune that gave Omnha Its Field and
Country clubs. So entirely does the social
life of the city center about these two
places In summer that It Is a bit difficult
to remember Just what people used to do
during July and August before they were
opened. Slowly but surely the calendar
has dwindled down to JuBt two markings
a week Wednesday and Saturday and
the Initiated know better than to expect
anything but Incidentals before the Viiddle.
of September. The'have nones" are much
more numerous than the "have returned"
now-a-days and the return of the warm
waather has served to hustle off to some
of the nearby resorts a lot'of people who
had planned to remain at home until fall.
Excepting the Wednesday luncheops and
hop and the Saturday dinner and dance
at the Field and Country clubs and a
trolley ride for some of the young people
this week's calendar is a blank, however,
there are still some visiting girls In town
arid as something Is due them there Is
hope. Another promise Is found In the re

PROMISED AT KRUG PARK
Program for nnd.ny and the Week
at This Resort Looks
Interesting-.
Krug park offers more and better at
tractions as a pleasure resort than any
place in Omaha, the originality of design
and reliability of execution making it a
dependable place to visit. The success of
the last week has only stimulated Manager
W. W. Cole to further efforts, and as a
result some rare attractions are booked
for the remaining weeks of the season.
For Sunday, George Young has been se
cured to make a balloon ascension and
parachute drop. This is Mr. Young's sec
ond attempt as an aeronaut. He found
his experience of last Sunday, when he
was married, and made hia weddjnj trip
In a balloon so pleasant and profitable that
he has adopted for his own the profession
of ballooning, and Sunday will witness
his first ascension and parachute drop.
And at night, for the first time In the
history of ballooning In Omaha, Manager
Cole will give a night ascension with fire
works. Illuminating the progress of the
big air ship through space.
Miss Etta Fyvle-Deuch, the Australian
contralto, has been re-engaged for an
other week. Her .rendition of "The Death
less Army" and "Klllarney" cause her to
respond to double encores ni-rhtly. One
of the most successful mualc; features Is
Christian Rodenklrchen, the cornet virtu
oso. His solos nightly, accompanied by the
Royal Canadian band, are warmly wel
comed. Krug park as a whole was never
better or more attractive and the won
derfully beautiful rolrage is at the height
of Its midsummer glory.
MEXICO PROSPERS FINELY
Charles E. Williamson Speaka from
Experience of Recent Visit to
that Country.
Mr. Charles E. Williamson recently re
turned from a trip to Mexico, where he
went to inspect some land for a client. He
says: "The going to a gold basis May I
seems to have had a great effect. I was
reliably Informed that within the sixty
days following May 1 the increase in the
aggregate banking capital of Mexico Olty
was $6,0(10,000. This is one of the effects
attributed to the change of basis. One
certain result Is the stabilizing of the rate
of exchange. It now fluctuates practically
not at all, and In crossing the river (Rio
Orande) you get even 2 for II of United
States currency and vice versa In returning
home. The Nebraska people In Mexico all
seem to be getting rich. One of them, now
a director In one of the banks, was on
the day I left Mexico City signing an issue
of the Increase of that bank, $loo,ouO of the
new stock, to send to a Trust company In
Columbus, O., my old home, that company
having purchased It as an Investment. I
was also down Into the terra calenta (hot
country), the tropics almost In the Isth
mus." Mr. Williamson says he found the
cattle business in the subtropics offer such
very attractive Inducements that his client
is preparing to establish a cattle planta
tion there as soon as possible. ,
NO SATURDAY HALF-HOLIDAY
Retailers Inwllllas to Saerlflce the
Bust Afternooa to Accom
modate Clerks.
In all probability there will no Saturday
afternoon closing of the retail stores of the
city. Some of the dealer do not favor the
plan. An agreement has been circulated
among the retailers by one of the clerks
and a number will not sign It. among them
the managers of some of the largest stores
In '.own. who say they are unwilling to
lose the big business of Saturday afternoon.
The matter will be allowed to rest as It
stands, and all the stores will continue to
close at 6 o'clock every evening except
Saturday.
Thompson. Belden A Co. have for a long
time closed at 1 p. m. on Saturday and
continue to do so. This firm will sot. how
ever, close at ( o'clock, hut will adhere to
Its ( o'clock closing hour In the evening.
Miss Bella Knowlton, of Hayden Bros',
millinery department, has Just returned
from a trip to the Pacific ron,st, and leaves
today for New York to buy fall millinery.
Steamer R. C. Guater,

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
The Nebraska Women's Christian Tem
perance union has been well represented
at the Epworth assembly at Lincoln, all
of the state officers having been present at
the board meeting held Friday and Satur
day. They are: Mrs. Dora V. Wheelock
of Superior, president; Mrs. A. Nesbitt of
Pawnee, treasurer; Mrs. M. E. Patterson
of Omaha, recording secretary; Mrs. C. M.
Woodward of David City, corresponding
secretaray; Mrs. M. D. Russell, vice presi
dent, and Mrs. Mamie Claflin of fnlverslty
Place, Jou"nalist. There was also a large
representation of local unions from ail
parts of the state and the Women's Chris
tian Temperance union tent was one of
the liveliest on the grounds. The union
members have been among the everyday
speakers at the pavilion. One of the promi
nent addresses of the week was made by
Mrs. Nesblt of Pawnee regarding the adul
teration of foods and the necessity of pure
food legislation In Nebraska. Friday after
noon Mrs. C. M. Woodward, state corre
sponding secretary, delivered an address
on "A Great. Enterprise," dealing with the
woman's temple In Chicago, the Frances
Wlllard memorial. Mrs. Woodward was
listened to very attentively by a large
audience, which manifested Its Interest at
the close of her, address by requests for
literature and by subscriptions to the tem
ple appeal. Mrs. Woodward told of the
dally gospel meetings at Wlllard hall In
the temple and the work resulting there
from. Sunday afternoon at the Auditorium
on the grounds an address will be deliv
ered by Mrs. Anna R. Simmons of Chi
cago, national organizer for the Women's
Christian Temperance union.
With apologies that It Is perhaps a little
premature Miss Kate Friend writes of one i
of those points In club life that Is well
worthy of consideration. It Is In refer
ence to the club report at the district con- I
vet tlon and the point that lies between
club loyalty and telling the exact truth.
She ihii:
The district system is to bring Into closer
touch the dubs whose Interest is moat
in common. The condition of the district
Is discussed, for mutual Information as
well as for the knowledge of the presiding
officer, who in executive board meeting
conveys her message to the state federa
tion. Now, here lies the delicate position
of the delegate. She knows things are not
prospering in her club; she knows there
has not been an afternoon program satis
factorily carried out since the club year
book began. She knows the constitution Is
violated every' day, that fines and dues
are not paid. And she knows that what
ever is accomplished Is the result of the
heroic effort upon the part of the few
faithful. Yet, she has not the bravery to
stand before her presiding officer and the
other clubs of her district to tell It. So,
sle puts the very best face possible upon
the '.onriition of affairs; gathers some facts.
iiiuiiuoHies mem wnn fier amuiininn i
sounds as though It echoed the very whir :
of club activity. What does this do? It I
simply creates a false impression of club
strength. To hear all these reports one
would Infer every club In the state up and :
onlr-lt' oH ,.( t'hova la t ho vc,IK, for
creating this false Impression. No delegate
Is willing to cast reflection upon her sister
clith woman; she Is not willing to say.
'AA e are a club of twenty, all drones ex-
cent four- we aver.iEe six at each meeting:
our programs are never fully carried out
owing to the tallure or memners to pre
pare what is assigned them; we have a
svstem of fines, but no one ever collects
them for fear of offending: we never read
the federation mall, because It does not
Interest our members, etc."
Just where the delegate's honesty with
her district conflicts with her loyalty to
her club Is a difficult matter to decide.
I.Ike the famllv, so Is the home club, quar
rel among ourselves, as we may, we always
give the smile of peace to the outside
world. . ,
It seems to the writer that club difficul
ties should be discussed Just as freely as
are club successes told. Experience Is the
wise counsellor and If the delegates told
.their troubles In heart to heart conference,
'perhaps someone who had found a way out
of that same difficulty might send that
delegate back to her club prepared to bet
ter the condition of affairs. At least there
Is food In this subject for reflection.
With gardening a fad among women the
papers are fairly teeming with suggestions
of things that women might raise. One
writer suggests that club women devote
themselves to some particular product and
excel In Its production, while another sug
gests that the southern women tnke up the
cultivation of orris root, reasoning that as
2SS.0O0 pounds of this perfume Is Imported
annually at a cost of J28.0OO, the "ladles
might work themselves Into a really good
thing." It might be a gratifying enlighten
ment to a great many people If It could he
ascertained Just how much "raising" the
club women are doing every year. It is a
common thing to find a piano and other
luxuries, as well as many of the actual
necessities that hnve been obtained by the
frugal wife from her butter or her chickens
or garden stuff money. The club women
of Nebraska, living as the majority of
them do. In small towns or on farms,
might be able to give some Interesting In
formation and suggestions, too, on "rais
ing" things
ORIGIN OF THUNDERSTORMS
Interesting; Information About a
Common Rut I.lttle Vnder-
tood Phenomenon.
A thunderstorm Is one of those great
events which have their origin In small
beginnings. ; As soon as the sun shows his
face above the horlion, on any of these
warm summer days, his heat begins to take
Immediate effect. First the eastern hill
sides, then the rocks, and finally all the
fields and pastures become very warm.
This warmth Is radiated Into the air,
which, being thus heated, expands and
begins to ascend. Little rising currents
of air. here and there, grow larger and
swifter, and presently unite with other
currents near them. At last great bodies
of air are rushing upwards, forced up by
the colder, heavier upper winds, which come
down and are warmed In their turn. Thus
a vast circulation Is-In process. It Is this
which gives us our day breezes, Increasing
In force from morning until the middle of
the afternoon and then, towards evening,
dying down Into a calm.
Now. as this air ascends and expands.
It Is cooled, and, consequently, the water
vapor which it contains reaches a point
when It can no longer remain a vapor, but
must change into the liquid form. Clouds
thus begin to develop. Those great woolly
masses of cloud, dark below, with brilliant
white edges, often with straight bases and
massive, plled-up tops, originate in Just
this way. if the day Is very, hot, evapora
tion at the earth's surface Is more rapid,
the ascent of the air currents Is swifter,
and clouds are formed in greater abun
dance. If the process continues long
enough. It may happen that these "cumu
lus" clouds, for so they are called, ac
cumulate to a thickness o even a mile or
more. This Is the Infant thunderstorm.
Its thickness makes it appear black. Its
great bulk of moisture causes the heavy
showers that accompany it.
The lightning well, nobody knows; suf
fice It to say that there Is always a con
siderable amount of electricity In the at
mosphere and that the heat of the day,
together with the extensive formation of
liquid water from water vapor, or gaseous
water, probably acts upon this electricity
In such a way as to collect it In large
quantities. At least, this is what some
scientists tell us. Lastly, the thunder is
merely the crah of the atmosphere as it
closes over the hole (for It is literally a
hole) made In It by the rapid passacs of
the Uo-b'.ning. Boston Transcript

Initial Showing and Sale
Models or Fall 1905
Ladies. Suits and Coats
Beginning Monday Aug. 7
and continuing for one week.
This event is awaited by hundreds of Omaha ladies
who have come to regard this as the first authentic expose
of correct fall fashions. We wish you to consider this a
personal invitation to view these new styles. Even if you
are not ready to make your selection this array of styles
can scarcely fail to interest you.
The model suits and coats are from the same high
class New York tailoring establishment as in our past ad
vance showings but we are enabled to show many more mod'
els revealing the settled styles for autumn than ever before
Many innovations in suit styles for fall are very marked.
The showing offers a splendid variety for purchasers
of ready-made garments as well as serving for correct
models for made-to-measure suits.
