The spring brides are dividing- honor
with charity In the attention of those who
have time and the means to entertain and
he entertained. Half a dosen benefit per
formances have been given of late by
young women and children and aa many
are planned for the next few weeks.
But the brides-to-be are having- their full
ahare. They have Inspired moat of the
affairs of the last week and will be honor
guests at many of the larger things
planned for the spring".
The men may not talk so much about
styles in hats aa the women, but they go
to aa much trouble to find out what is
the latest hint from New York. Several
youim men recently went to nearly every
haberdasher In the city to find an exact
duplicate of a style worn by two or three
eastern visitors to this city. Here is a
description of what these well known
society men were making a diligent search
for. A light grey soft felt hat with very
narrow brim rolling up all around. The
finishing touch to this up-to-date head
Rear, is a narrow black silk band. To
find the brim ajid the black band on the
same hat seems to be the difficulty which
there young men encountered, so they had
to compromise and take the hats which
were on hand with dark grey bands.
For the last tw o weeks tin re has been
sreat excitement at the Omaha High
arhool. And the girls are the cause of
this unusual disturbance. The question
which these cords are perturbed about Is
that of sponsors for the nine military
companies of the cadet regimeit. As it
now stands, eight of the companies and
the cadet band will each want a sweet
young woman to act aa a sponger and to
help in Its work of the year. But the
ninth captain elands out against all argu
ments. The following girls have been announced
as xponsers up to date: Company A, Miss
Helen Miller; Company B, Mlsa Sara
.yiex, Company C, MUs Nellie Elgutter;
Company J), Miss Kltznbeth Doud; Com
pany E, (sponstr not yet chosen); Com
pany K, Mlsa Mildred Marr; Company O,
Miss Adelaide Kunkhouser; Company H,
Miss Bculah Besslrw; The iBand, Miss
l-'annle UoKenstock. Company I, com
manded by Hubert McCague la the or
ganization which Is the exception to prove
the rule.
To be a sponger Is one of the greatest
honors of a girl's school life, and so of
course, the feminine contingent la quite
put out with Captain McCague, but he Is
quits sure that his company will have Just
aa good a chance In competition even
though it has no aponser to grace It.

Social Matters at Capital
Washington Smart Folks Uncertain About Their Summer Plans
President Will Attend the Horse Show Mrs. Taft likely to Lead
Move Against Smoking and Drinking Among Women of Society.
BY CONSTANCE CARRUTHERS.
WASHINGTON, April 23. (Special Dis
patch to The Bee.) Social activity In the
capital is waning, although the congress
of the Daughters of the American Revolu
tion her this week was th cause for a
round of gayeties in which every set took
part. The wives of the senators enter
tained for the various delegations from
their states.
Summer plans for the most part seem
distant and hazy. This Is ascribed to a
reluctance of society to leavs Washington
which is manifest more strongly this year
than usual. The first to make summer
arrangements are the diplomats, for they
are always anxious to obtain good quar
ters for their embassies or legations In the
mountains or at ths seashore near enough
with Washington to be In constant touch
with ths State department. Newport has
hitherto divided honors with Lenox and
Manchester and now Bar Harbor has come
to the front. Baron Rosen, the Russian
ambassador, has elected to spend the sum
mer months at Bar Harbos, The German
and Italian diplomats will be at Man
chester. The Danish minister and Countess
Moltke will be with the countess' family,
Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Thayer, until
July, when they sail for Denmark.
President and Mrs. Taft will again
spend the summer at Beverley.
I am told that President Taft will at
tend the horse show, which is to be re
vived next month at Potomac park.
Among th entrants, I doubt if there is a
mors enthusiastic ens than Miss Katharine
Elklns, who Is an ardent horsewoman.
The dedication of th new home of th
Bureau of American Republics next week
will be quite a social affair. Mr. John
Barrett, th director, will be In his glory.
Invitations have been issued quite ex
tensively for the reception which will be
tendered Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Carnegie
on' Tuesday. President Taft has accepted
an Invitation to attend.
Mr. and Mrs. John Frederick Leech have

ter, Miss Katherlue Olivia, to Lieutenant
Thurston Hughes. Fishers Island, New
York. Lieutenant Hughes is a son of Dr.
and Mrs. W. A. Hughes of Louisville, Ky.,

The dance given by the Congressional
club on Wednesday evening was the first
of a series of spring entertainments.. It
was arranged especially for the younger
aet and was a brilliant entertainment.
Those who had charge of it were Mrs.
Needham of California, Miss Hill of Con
necticut, Miss Ruth McCall, Miss Mattis,
Miss May Gregg, Miss Ivy Moore, Miss
Richardson of Alabama, Miss Alllnger of
Pennsylvania and Miss Emma Gillespie of
Texas.
Mrs. Taft will give another series of gar
den parties like those which she gave 'last
spring, on the lawns of the White House,
and which proved such charming entertain
ments. The first party will be given on
the afternoon of May fi. The dates of the !
others will be selected later. Three tlme
last year there was a rainstorm on the
day selected by Mrs. Taft and the guests
were entertained In the White House In
stead of upon the lawn. The atmosphere
of strict formality which marks the state
receptions and other events of the regular
season are not In evidence at those par
tie?, and th president and Mrs. Taft have
opr -tunity for more than a word with
their guests.
From the attitude of Mrs. Taft and other
social leaders and the clergy of Washing
ton it Is quite likely, I believe, that a cru
sade of serious proportions is In store
against cigarette smoking, drinking and
gaming among th society women of Wash
ington. For some time Mrs. Taft has been
frowning upon the Inroads of the conti
nental Sunday In this city, but tho alarm
ing growth of th cigarette habit amongst
society women and the openness In which
It la being indulged has aroused a great
deal of antagonistic feeling.
For Instance, when a congressman from
some rutal district brings his family to
Washington and his wife and daughters
see women drinking and smoking with
calm complacence, they think Washington
Is terribly wicked; that the city will be
destroyed with fire and flood before many
more hours has elapaed. In this connec
tion a rattier humorous Incident happened
recently. Miss Kathetlne Cameron during
a performance of the historical tableaux,
which was attended by President Taft and
others, suddenly exclaimed In dismay:
"I've lost "Kittens." "Oh, dear, was It an
angora?" asked a friend. "It wasn't a
cat at all," replied Miss Cameron, "It was
my cigarette rase."
Miss Marguerite Bates and Miss Ruth
Hover, both of Denver, who spent the
Easter season with Mrs. Russell B. Harri
son and her daughter, MIm Marthena Har
rison, have returned to their studies at
Rye seminary, Rye, N. Y. They went to
Annapolis to attend th hop at the acad
emy and over to Fort Myer. to the dance
there. Miss Bates Is a coualn of Mrs. Har
rison. Again sh lived at th At. Ilegls for a tlm.
Another marriage linking Bultlmor and
Xw York cam today when Thomas Ed
wsrd Hambleton, son of Ueorg Frank
Hambleton of Baltimore, was united In
wedlock to Miss Adelaide McAlpin In th
Madison Avenue Presbyterian church.
I "r. and Mrs. Charles It. Alexander hav
loaned their realdenc at No. I West Fifty
eighth street for th reception to follow th
wedding of Mlas Kleanor Butler Alexander
and Theodor Roosvlt. Jr., on Jun M.
There will b many bridal guest as well
as relatives preaant at th Fifth Avenu
Presbyterian church for the ceremony.
According to the plan, I belleye, Colonel
Thodor Hootevell will aril hum about
four days before the ceremony. I under
stand that Kermlt will art as his brother's
best man. although there Is no confirma
tion for this very interrstlrg report. At
any rate Kermlt will have some lively
tales, of the Jungle to tell his young
friends. Not satisfied with painting canva-scs
whirh caused artists to g.up In astunlsh
tnent. Miss Dorthy Rice, daughter of Mrs.
Isaac L. Rirf and one of a quartet of four
beautiful and accomplished sisters, has
gone In for classic dancing. Miss Rice ssvs
that she has seen all the Salome dances and
not one fulfills her conception of the man
ner In which the version should be given.
In brief. Miss Rice believes the she per
sonally can outdo any of the Salomes seen
yet In New York. Slie likewise has taken
liberties with the popular conception of
what John the Baptist should be like, am'
lias painted his head, platter and all. In
stead of doing her dance with John's head
realistically portrayed, she will carry the
painting In her hand.
"Eva Tanguay nppealed to me as giving
the best veioiun nf Salome." said Miss
Rice. 1 have seen Maud Allen and Mary
Garden, but thy are not artistic and real
istic. They seem to be afraid of shocking
the audience. Now there Is nothing In real
art which is shocking to those of artistic
sentiments no, absolutely nothing at all.

preparing to return to America from Eu
rope, where they have been spending their
honeymoon. They want to. be home by
May 1::. when the racing season opens at
Belmont Park. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bel

Mr. Belmont has a large stable In England
as well as In America.

pared for their homecoming.

Jn our church we have a society
Among our people of much notoriety,
Known by th title. Helping Hand,
And for the church it takes a stand.
Success attends its every work
Because the women never shirk: -They
sew, they tslk, they cook and bake;
Sometimes a trolley rid they taks.
Their every meeting is a feast,
When this we say, we say the least;
The cake is always best by far
Because it's made of Updike's Flour.
This society gladly casts Us vote
For Pride of Omaha, flour of note,
And gladly lends Its gracious nama
To spread the Pride of Omaha's fame.
