Wllhelm. dinner at Country club; dinner and dance at the Country, Field and Happy Hollow clubs. Beginning with a prospect not overly bright, last week proved one of the gayest Of tha aummer. There were luncheon par tie galore at the clubs and at home scat tered all through the week, with the open ing of Happy Hollow and the musicals at tha Field club aa the two big event a. Among tha club luncheons were several that would have been conspicuous had there been fewer of them. Wednesday proved almost a record-breaking women's day at the Country club, with the lunch eon given by Mra E. H. Bcott and Mlsi Caroline Dodge for Mrs. N. P. Dodge, Jr., the largest party, If subsequent de velopments did render It second In point of Interest. The engagement hooks are not very full tht week, bttt this by no nieana Indicates a dull time, for the majority of the affairs are Impromptu nowadays, even some of the large luncheons, this being made possible by tha service at the clubs. Beveral affairs planned for Baturday and for this week have been called off on ac count of the death of Mr. William A. Pax ton. Among them were the dinner to have been given Baturday night at the Happy Hollow club by Mr. and Mrs. Charles Johanea and the dinner to hove been given at tha Country club by Mr. Paul Galla gher. What la the matter with the Omaha girls?" This Is the question that society has had occasion to ask for a third time I thla year wl;h the announcement lust week Of the engagement of nnn of Oniaha'a most eligible bachelors to an out-of-town girl. Of course, there Is nothing the mat ter with the home girls unless, perhapa, they are a bit unappreclatlve for their op portunltlea, but the fact remains that some Of the moat eligible men In town have gone away for their brides, three conspicuous In atancea of this aort having occurred dur ing the year. It may he soma consolation to the Interested, however, to know that at least two of the rlcheat bachelors still remaining In town are not unappreclatlve of or unappreciated by Omaha young women. At least one of them la really engaged to one of the younger glrla, while the other well, hla attention to one of the most atunnlng glrla ln town has been the subject of some of the most Interesting chat of the summer. The formal opening of the Happy Hol low club Baturday afternoon and evening iaw tha realization of one of the much anticipated events of the aummer. It was the really big thing of the month and brought out a big attendance cT and brought out a big guests as well as members.

LAST OF SAMPSONS FLEET I'au.ona Battleships of the gpanlsh Amerlcan War Placed la Reserva. The last of the battleships that partici pated in the Spanish war was retired from the Atlantic fleet and placed In reserve re cently, their places being taken by the new battleships recently placed ln commission. The vessels that are ordered ln reserve are the Indiana and Iowa, both of the Fourth division of the Second squadron. The Ver mont and the Kansas, vessels of li.000 ton, will take their places. The placing lit reserve of the Indiana and Iowa realties the dream of those naval offi cers who have long advocated aa the main fighting arm ln the Atlantic a powerful fleet for the backbone of which shall be four or more squadrons of battleships com posed only of the most modern vessels of their type. The Texas has long since been placed In reserve, and the Olympla lias been assigned a permanent berth at Annapolis as a trainlngship. The Massachusetts, the Oregon and the New York are all out of commission and undergoing repairs at the various navy yards, while the Brooklyn, while still tn commission. Is nevertheless listed In the reserve. The addition of the Kansas and the Ver mont to the Atlantic fleet makes that or ganization one of the strongest fighting units possessed by any nation. As It will be constituted by the retirement to reserve duty of the two historic battleships, there remains ln It not a single armored vessel that participated In the war with Spain. In point of service the battleships Kentucky and Kearsarge are now the sfniors of the fleet, they having been completed aoon after the close of the Spanish war. All of the other ships are of comparatively recent completion, the newest being the Connecti cut and Georgia classes. Of the vesels ln reserve, the only one troth's 218 Houth Fourteenth Street.

The Indiana, the Massachusetts anl the Oregon, the latter two of which rw being reconstructed, will probably etui their days In the reserve, as will also the arm ored cruiser Brooklyn. The New Tork. which Is nearlng the completion of Its con struction at the Fston navy yard, has been so completely overhauled that it Is consid ered probable that it may bo transferred to the I'Bctfic to become the flagship of the fleet in those waters.
