This Is the tlnre of year when socially
things should be humming. Fun and gaiety
should bp at Its height. The days and
nights ahould be crowded with entertain
ments. Instead of looking for amusement
on should be revelling In It, as there Is
an Inexhaustible supply of It and of Tiew
freah amusement, too, that resembles none
of :he old variety. If only the fun-loving
element would get out of this state of
lethargy they have' been assuming sine
the holidays and usher In a little excite
ment. Of course, there has been some
entertaining this week, but It has been
general and by no means confined to any
one set, consequently no one has had a
particularly gay time. Society has always
been accused of entertaining spasmodically.
but dullness at this time of the year Is
unheard of and makes one feel that the
Lenten season has really begun in advance.
Btlll society hardly seems ready for peni
tence and seclusion with several attractive
visitors here, any one of whom seem far
Indifferent to a good time. So perhaps this
Is only a transition and may be the prepa
ration for brilliant events to come.

NEW GAME FOR CARD CRANKS
"Bridge Whist for Two" Invented to
-Aid la the Slaaghter
of Time.
Lovers of bridge whist will hall with de
light the new rules Invented for "Bridge
Whist for Two." Hitherto It seemed Impos
sible to manage such rules and still have
a game anything like bridge, but this diffi
culty has been surmounted. In Its essential
features the new game very closely resemb-
bles Chinese whist, from which It Is evi
dently derived, but the game has great
possibilities and promises to meet with
favor. Following are the rules:
The full pack of fifty-two cards Is ured.
The two players alt opposite each . other
and cut for aeat. Ace is low.
The dealer first lays off the rour top
cards for his adversary, face down, and
then lays off rour more ror hlmseir, also
face down. These are known ns the con
cealed hands, and the four cards of which
they are composed must always be kept
separate from any other cards until they
are played to tricks.
The - next step Is to deal off twenty-two
cards to each player, one at a time, face
down. None or these twenty-two must be
lifted or looked at by either player until
tho deal Is complete.
Each then takes hla twenty-two cards,
still holding them face down, and lays out
eleven of them In two rows, rlx In one row
and five In another, still face down and un
known. On the top of these eleven are
placed the other eleven, but. face up: so
that each player has in front of him eleven
cards race up, Under each or which is a
card face down.
Both players then take up the four card
ot the concealed hand And examine them,
but without showing thf-m to the opponent.
After comparing his four with the cards
which are face up on the table the dealer
makes hla declaration; no trumps, nearta,
or anything he, likes. It Is then the privil
ege of the adversary to double or to play
without doubling. '
The four cards are still held In the hand,
and the nondealer begins by leading any
card he pleases. He may lead one of his
concealed cards, or he may take one of
those lying face up on the table. The sec
ovil player must follow suit if he can.
either from the table or from his concealed
hand.
If a card la played from the table at
any time the card under It must be turned
face up immediately, so that there shall
still be eleven carda face up In front of
each player.
The second player . having played to the
card led, the original leader must play
again to the same trick, and must follow
suit If he ran. His opponent must then
pluy the fourth card to the trick,, following
suit if able to do so.
Any card which la turned up. when It
Is uncovered by playing away the card
on the top of It, Immediately becomes avail
able for pluy; but no card can be turned
up until tho card which was originally
placed on the top of It has been legiti
mately played away. That is, the plaver
is not allowed to alter the original distri
bution of the twenty-two cards on the ta
ble. A trick Is not complete until It contains
four cards, but the player is not obliged
to win unless he wishes to, neither Is he
obliged to play the brst card he holds as
one of the first two if be prefers to hold
It until the next two.
For example: Suppose that at no trumps
B haa only one club on the table, the
eight, and that A, who holds . the king
and others, leads a small club. B puts on
the eighth and A then plays his king,
thinking B will have to discard; instead
of which B produces the nee of cluba from
his concealed hand end take the trick.
The winner of the trick of four cards
takes It In and turns It down and then
lead for the next trick, and the play con
tinues In this manner until all the cards
nave been turned up and played away,
both from the table and front the con
cealed hands, so that there are thirteen
tricks to be played for in each deat.
If the player cannot follow suit he may
either discard or trump, but If he has In
his concealed hand one of the suit led
and fall to follow suit It Is a revoke, the
penalty of which Is the loss of three tricks
There Is no penalty for a revoke with
the carda on the table, because the oppo
nent Is equully to blame for allowing ft to
pass.
Tricks and honors are scored as in the
ordinary Kme, and the winner of the rub-
Dei adds tiny points to his total as a
bonus.
Tins game la Infinitely superior to double
dummy, because It has the element of the
unknown nanus, uouble dummy bridge Is
nothing but whist with a varying value to
the tricks.

A runaway horse, sttaiTrJ to a llgiil ex

urday afternoon near the corner of Twelfth

stockman of Tabor, la. The horse was
running swiftly eastward on Douglas street
with the lines drsgglng on the ground. Pe
destrians wildly waved their arms only to
spur the frtuhterud horse to greater apeed.
Dnncan ran from the sidewalk and crawled
Into the rear end cf the wagon and then
to the aeat. but waa unable to reach the
lines, so he stepped on the shafts and
Jumped on the horse's back. As anon as
Duncan reached the line he quickly threw
the horse to the ground, narrowly escap
ing serious Injury to himself, as he rvtarly
fell ujider the. animal. The horse Is owned
by John Cllbaugh, an expressman, and
ran away at Sixteenth and Chicago streets,
where a hfavy wagon collided with the

WORK OF THE CLUB WOMEN
Interest in rending Leeii'ttion Erinei Cot
Kncb United 1 ffort.
CHILO LABOR tAW IS NOW ASSURED
Vlelt ommlttee at l larola Tli era
day Shows the Wemea to Be
Qalte Determlaed and
' Persistent.
Not since the woman suffrage amendment
was being agitated In Nebraska have the
women united with such determination aa
they manifest regarding the passage of the
child labor and compulsory education bills,
now pending In the legislature. It Is sel
dom, too, that they have had such co
operation as Is being given them by the
men; In fact, it has been the hearty sup
port of such organisations as the Bar as
sociation. Social Service club, the labor or
ganizations and the State Teachers' aesj
clotlon that has encouraged the women to
redouble their efforts. The attendance at
the hearing of the child labor bill before
the judiciary committee of the house last
Thursday afternoon was proof that the
women have been busy and that their ef
forts have been well directed.
The delegation, consisting of the chair
man of the Industrial committee of the
Nebraska Federation of Women's Clubs,
Judge .Kennedy of the Douglas county Ju
venile court. Superintendent Morris of the
Associated Charities and Attorney W. H.
Pennock, who drafted the bill, all of whom
went to Lincoln from Omaha, waa supple
mented by the president of the Nebraska
Federation of Women's Clubs, the chairman
of the federation's legislative committee,
the president of the Lincoln Woman'a club,
the chairman of Its legislative committee,
the six general officers of the Nebraska
Women's Christian Temperance union, the
state superintendent of schools, the superin
tendent of the Lincoln schools, the Lincoln
truant officer and a representative of the
Lincoln labor unions, all of whom attended
the meeting of the Judiciary committee
and several of whom addressed It. The
referring of the bill back to the house with
the unanimous recommendation that It be
passed afforded general satisfaction, but It
Is realised that there must be no relaxa
tion of effort, for the provisions of the bill
are not fully understood or Its necessity
appreciated In the rural communities of
the state, and from these sections, aa well
as the Interests affected by the elimination
of child labor opposition may be expected.
It will behoove the club women to fa
millnrixe themselves with the provisions
of both the child labor and compulsory ed
ucation bills that they may be able to
meet arguments a;ainst them.
Library Commission's Work.
The Nebraska Library commission is
about to Issue a circular to the club women
of the state asking their further co-operation
in securing an Increase In the ap
propriation for the support of the com
mission. The commission looks to the club
women, aa chiefly. Instrumental In securing
its establishment, and one of the most
valuable agencies In promoting Its inter
ests to its fullest possibilities. The women
have been, through their club work, In
closer touch with the work of the com
mission than almost any otner element
of the state, and so are better prepared
to Judge and to speak of Ita merits. Miss
Charlotte Templeton, secretary of the com
mission, estimates that a little more than
thirty-five out of 100 cases of books go to
the rural schools of the state. The strong
est traveling library station In the state
Is on a farm. Surely no stronger argu
ment could be offered for the desired ap
propriation of 15,000 a year than such facts.
The commission baa also authorized the
following letter:
To the Friends of Libraries and Educa
tion: We hope that every person who is
interested in the library cause wilt ex
press to hla representative or senator In
the state legislature na appreciation of the
work done by the Public Library commis
sion and recommend that Its very reason
able request for funda $6,(J00 per annum)
be granted. We need the support of all
our friends at this time and it is not
enough to say to your acquaintances or to
us that this la a good work that ahould
go on say It to your legislators. Very
truly,. CHARLOTTE! TEMPLETON,
Secretary.

farm at Lincoln last week. At the meeting

organisation of men. the men were out

Mra, O. W. Whltmore of Valley adminis

over her audience remarked: "It had been
my Intention to ask you men to Interest
your wives in this subject of forestry, but
I think since coming before you I will
h&nire my suggestion and ask you women

FRUIT RAISERS JOIN HANDS
Growers of Dooajlaa County Oraaalse
to Iacreo.ee Proflta of Their
Business.
Douglas county fruit growers propose to
get all that's coming to them from their
Industrious toll and cut out the "middle
man" or whoever that is that has been
enawlng Into the vitals of the profits In
the fruit raising business. To this end
about thirty fruit growers of the county
yesterday met at Florence and took steps
td effect a permanent organisation which
probably will be known as the Douglas
County Fruit Growers association.
D. Deyo was chairman of tho meeting
rind probably will be elected president of
the organization when It la completed. At
yesterday's meeting a committee Was ap
pointed to draft a form of organisation,
by-laws and constitution and call another
meeting for final organisation at Its dis
cretion. That committee consists of these:
D. Deyo. chairman; A. F. Seybolt, William
Barber, Edward Walker, County Commis
sioner E. Q. Solomon, Otto Orsch. N. H.
Nelson was one of the prominent factors
In the meeting.
The fruit growers of this county, like the
fruit growers of Council Bluffs once did",
have decided their business is not turning
back to them the revenue it should, largely
because some middle man is getting the
profits and because too, they are unable to
secure .as pron.pt service In getting their
fruit to market aa they should. These are
some ot the disadvantages they hope to
remove by the organlxation. It Is their
plan to work upon the co-operative system
to the extent of marketing their products.
Tills may be accomplished by nppolnt'ng
one or more of their number to act as sell
ing agent, letting him deal directly with thu
Jobber or the purchaser, whoever he may
be, so as to cut out the commission of
middle men and secure the best market,
delivery and prices possible. Exactly this
plan haa been pursued with great profit
by the raisin growers of the San Joaquin
valley, ' California.
