SATURDAY Dinner aad dunce at field
and country clubs.
, Entertaining Indoors has been so rare
the last week that it seems to have gone
out of style. Almost everything of eon
sequence has been given at the Country
or Field clubs and every day of the week
has seen luncheon and dlnnar parties at
!these popular resorts. Of course there
have been a few bridge at home parties,
'but many of these have been held out on
'. the veranda or the lawn. Every oppor
Uuoity for getting out of doors has been
i embraced and the automobile run has
proven most attractive, especially after
the sun has gone down.
There has been little cessation in enter
taining; howtver, la spite of the warn
days. Pome of the most attractive visit
ing girls of the year are In town Just now,
and they have been entertained even If it
is warm. No one seems to have counted
i this a. tax, however, for people have
fairly vied with each other to honor them
with luncheons and bridge and other par
ties.' -This week will see another gay
round, for, while all the announcements
have, not yet been made, the calendar Is
fairly well filled and a lot of impromptu
affairs, always among the most enjoy
able, are Inevitable.
The opening of Happy Hollow Country
lul July 20 Is anticipated with much
Plensure and promtaes to be one of the
event of the summer.

unprecedented success, with a record break
ing crowd last Sunday and , the largest

dainty maids being noticeable every even
ing. The big roller coaster and miniature
railroad are attractions that will never
grow old, both doing a capacity buainess
daily. The launches and row boats are In
constant use this hot weather. Many who
do not wish to go bathing take advantage
of the refreshing lake breeie by taking a
ride on the pleasure crafts.
Prof. Andrew wll make a balloon ascen
aion today.. His Jump of the Fourth, with
many acrobatic teats while high in mid
air, made a decided hit.

favorite, as is evidenced by tha applause

WORK OF TI1E CLUB WOMEN
South Carolina Daughter! of Confed
eracy Offer New Scholarship.
WHAT WOMEN'S CLUBS MAY MEAN
Mrs. Hawarth Folate Oat Possibilities
f riab la Stlmalatlaa: and C'ea
trallaiaa; Efforts of Wo me a
for ;d.
What a woman's club may mean and the
possibilities offered through federation are
admirably set forth In the following from
Mrs. B. M. lloworth, president of the New
Century club of West Point, Mississippi:
Can a woman spend her leisure better
than In devoting It lo philanthropy, dura
tion and civil service subjects in which all
Christians should be Interested? Can she
not accomplish more, far more by co
operation with a number of women of like
purpose than by individual effort? By the
law of action and reaction of play of mind
against mind, of the Interchange of Ideas
and the stimulus of ambition to excel, the
whole Is grsduully lifted to a higher level
of thought and action. In this way a score
of hunds and minds are trained and gained
to helpfulness, where there might be none,
It is in all probability true that no deep
study is done by women's clubs, that no
subject is thoroughly mastered, that all of
the members sre not altogether In earn
est. We do not claim that the club means
much to the student or the genius. Those
who are pursuing some special study or
course In life may not need the club, but
to the average woman It does mean much.
Surely there Is much that woman should
know about mid do as well as man the
whole world witli its teeming millions, the
crying needs of humanity, the wail of
thousands upon thousands of children
shall she have no part in those things siie
who Is best fitted by God to understand
many of them? Her duty done at home.
and done well as only a trained mind can
do it, may she not reach out to do a deed
here and there productive of good?
Is it better to spend one afternoon a
wcuk in making it possible to put good
literature into the hands of a country lad,
In learning aomething which she may after
ward need In training of her child. In sav
ing another'a child from slavery, in seeing
to it that the food she buys must be pure,
and that It shall be possible for her to
know what is in the patent medicine she
sometimes relies on for her sick ones. In
helping to make attractive and beautiful
her town, than to spend the same time In -
playing cards, in straining her eyes over
a piece of lacework or the reading of a
light novel? Surely, surely. The vast
majority of women's clubs are composed1
of those who, to use a masculine term.
torm the "yeomanry" of their country, the
pride and backbone of America, women who
keep the house and rear the children, wno
shall lead our nation on to greatness.
Think what a million such club women.
all working In co-operation through their
general federation, can accomplish.
Scholarship for Girls.
Tha various chapters of the Daughters of
the Confederacy are doing much for the
education of poor white girls In all south
ern states by means of scholarships In
women's colleges. The executive commit
tee of tha South Carolina division has Just
announced that It will place a division
scholarship In Wlnthroav, college for the
next throe years for a girl of confederate
lineage. Applicants for the scholarship
must be at least 14 years of age and must
pledge - themselves to complete the three
years' course offered by the division. Cer
tificates must be presented showing that
their families are unable to pay for their
education and they must be daughters
or lineal descendants of soldiers of the con
federate army of honorable record. In
case of equal attainments offered preference
will be shown daughters of widows of con
federate soldiers.
In addition to its educational work the
South Carolina division is Justly proud of
the fact that within the last few weeka It
has unveiled three confederate monuments
with lilting exercises.
Mra. Lydia P. Williams.
In the death of Mrs. Lydia P. Wllliama,
wnicn occurred recently at her home In
Minneapolis, the General Federation of
Women's Clubs and more directly the Min
nesota Federation and those clubs with
which she worked -more closely, have sus
tained a great loss. An ex-president 'of
the Minnesota Federation, member of the
board of directors of the General Federa
tion, ex-president of several local clubs
and identified with much advanced work
for the betterment of the conditions of
women, Mrs. Williams was one of the
prominent women of the day. It was a
chairman of the forestry committee of the
General Federation, however, that she did
some of lr?r most effective work. Her ef
forts In behalf of forestry left a lasting
Impression upon the forestry movement In
America .nd will be an inspiration to all
future workers In this depsrtment.
Club women will be Interested to know
that Mrs. P. S. Peterson, the present chair
man Of the forestry committee of the Gen
eral Federation, Is a graduate .of. Mount
Holyoke, Is at present one of Its trustees
and la also president of tha Northwestern
Alumnae association of that college.
Clab Notes.
The July business meeting of the local
Women's Christian Temperance union will
be held at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon
In the parlors of the Toung Women's Chris.
tlan association.
It has been suggested by the council of
the General Federation that clubs conform
to some model in getting out their year
books, that they may be more easily filed
for reference purposes. The year book of
the Illinois Federation for 1907 la suggested
as a model in size, but the announcement
fails to state its proportions.

SCAVENGER TAX LAW PAYS
Trearer Fink f'amallra t'lewrea ta

from Enaetnteat.
County and City Treasurer Fink has com
plied figures showing the direct and Indirect
benefits derived from the operation of the
sesvenger tax law from November 1. Wl.
when the law was put In operation, to June
?!, 1907. During that period the direct col
lections under the law were $91.OT.r9. Of
this the city of Omahs received I.P";?.,
the city of South Omaha $".85.1.S2, and the
county t'.H;,!S2.7!t. Of the HS.Ono cases filed
under the law all but 774 have hrcn adjudi
cated. These flguies show the direct result or the
workirurs of the law, but the Indirect results
have been almost as large. The law has
forced a large number of property owners
to pay back taxes and considerable tracts
of land upon which the taxes exceeded the!
value of the land have been made tax pro- 1
duced by hsvlng the old tsxes cleared up.
Mr. Kink estimates the collections due
directly or Indirectly to the workings of
the law at il.S0.C00.
The report of the county tax collections
under the 190t levy show that 01 per cent of
the total levy ufi real estate snd personally
has been paid to the treasurer. The total Jubilee Saturday night. The samevstore.

delinquent until May 1. This percentage, stuble and steady the umbrella lies quietly
of collections would have been Impossible i and unpretentiously on Its shelf. It Is
before the sesvenger law elesned up the '
dead taxes because at that time 10 per cent
of the property In the county was non
tax producing because it was covered with
taxes.
The result of these good collections is
seen in the financial condition of the county.
which is said to be better than It ever has ,
been In recent years. Three years ago the
county was short IO.OOO. This has all been I forget It and leave it at the home of a

Passed by Last I.ealslatnre

Local Court.
An attack on the new forcible entry and
detainer law passed by the last legislature
Is being made In Judge Kennedy's court
in
controversy over the State hotel. The!,h. ,,mhriio hot ih in f.et I. a. mu.-h
ngnt is or interest to landlords and tenants
because of the far reaching effects of lhjdIeB of Omaha umbrellas come almost ex-
new statute. It provides when a landlord
has secured a Judgment In forcible entry
and detainer, the court may enforce the
Judgment in apite of an appeal to a higher
court provided the plaintiff files a bond.
Under the old law the appeal suspended
the execution of the, Judgment and the
tenant could hold the property for a, year
or two after Judgment had been entered
against him by appealing to a higher court.
The suit Is one in which Mr. Ieflang, the
owner of the State hotel Is seeking to oust
Henry Seber, his tenant. Leflang, througli
his attorneys, Baldrlge ,& DeBord. secured
Judgment In county court. The defendant
took the case to the district court, where
a. W. Shields and F. U McCoy began an
attack on the new law. They contend
tha bill was Invalid because it was mate
rially changed in body and title after it
had been read the second time In the
house of representatives and because the
section to be amended or the section re
pealed Is not named. It Is also contended
It delegates legislative powers to the judge
of the district court and offers a different
remedy to different persons In the same
cause of action and therefore Is special leg
islation.
The law was originally Introduced by N.
P. Dodge, jr., but was amended at the
suggestion of Henry T. Clarke, Jr.

"That might seem to be a good deal of
money to put Into an umbrella," said Ed.
Pickering, a veteran dealer and maker,
"but It Is really all represented by solid
value. The beat silk covers alone cost $S
and some of the handles are works of art
and very heavy with pure gold and silver.
Of course these umbrellas are sold only
on rare occasions. We rarely sell a $.10
umbrella any time except at Christmas."

"We do a big 'matinee business,' " said a
clerk In tha umbrella department of a Six
teenth street store "When the matinees
are over the west her often looks threaten
ing and the women don't want to risk get
ting their gowns wet, so they come In and
buy an umbrella. Generally they only take
something cheap, seventy-five cents or a
dollar." . " , ....
Umbrellas are sold In Omaha only dur
ing the summer months, starting about
March and continuing until September and
October. At Christmas there Is again a
slight boom In the market.
One of the most remarkable problems of
the whole thing is, "Where do all those
umbrellas go?"
