The South Omaha Country club opening yesterday afternoon and evening was the most successful of any In Its history, and the Indlcatons are for a season of great popularity. The rain at noon which con tinued In light showers until 2:30 p. m. made the guests late In arriving and re stricted the golf playing to the more en thusiastic lovers of the sport. Many of the golfers were too busy with the enter tainment of numerous guests to get out on the links. A good matched game was played, however, and the winners of the qualifying round will probably play Saturday-to decide the prizes. The base ball game between the club and Crelghton university resulted In a victory for the college men, 6 to 4. The dinner parties were numerous and 206 guests were served to a generous table d'hote dinner consisting of fruit, olives, roast beef and vegetables, stuffed tomato salad, strawberries and ice cream. The threatening weather of the afternoon caused delay lh the arrival of the earlier guests so the last dinners were served at 8:30 p. m. and the evemn dance had be gun before all the guests were served in tho dining rooms. The slight delay was readily overlooked by tho guests In the enjoyment of the brilliant occasion and the perfect evening. The dance was one of the most enjoyable because of the perfect evening and the good condition of the floors. Dlmmlck's orchestra dispensed the music. This function continued until 11:30 p. m. ' Informal Hospitality. As all affairs of the club are Intended, every detail of the entertainment was In formal and thoroughly saturated with hos pitality. T. J. O'Nell, the president of the club, was everywhere present. He had the assistance of Otto Radiuwelt, the manager of the cafe and house accommodations. To these two much of the great success of the opening of the season was due. The guests Included by far the greater number of tha prominent families of the city and among them were many Invited guests from Omaha and other cities. W. A. Schrel of Chicago was the guest of E. L Howe and had the distinction of having hailed from the most distant point on this occasion. A matched game of golf between the live stock mon and the business men of the city will be played Saturday. This will be a Btralght match, without handicaps, and tho losers pay for the dinners. The grounds are In excellent condition, although it Is atlll necessary to use tem porary greens, and probably will be for two weeks. t The roster of golf players was posted yesterday Bhowlng the opening handicaps. These will be subject to change every week. Pat Donally Scalded. Patrick Donally, Thirty-second and A streets, was scalded yesterday afternoon at the vats of the Cudahy Packing com pany, where he works.

However through no fault of theirs but simply because of the very uncertain spring weather, many of these firms were unable to dispose of their entire stock. Consequently on our buyer's recent eastern trip he secured several hundred high-grade hand-tailored garments at a price but little above the cost of fabric alone.
