Omaha, always of conservative trend,
prone somewhat to cling to tradition, haa
been bit reserved as to the much-talked-of
hobble gown, but the coronation ball
being the event of the year, eliminated to
a marked extent that characteristic con
servatively, and local femininity came
out Friday evening with an enviable hobble
jown display.
In fact, thi coronation ball waa the first
opportunity Omaha's smart dames and
mles have bad for bobble gown Indul
gence, for be It remembered luat the hob
ble gown la new not only new In Omaha,
but throughout the country as well.
Omaha, although midway between oceans,
and therefore removed by several hours of
railway travel from fashion center. Is by
no means slow In grasping the latest Idea.
Such Ideas, however, are not always
adopted, because Omaha femininity haa a
mind of Its own and is not given to Imitat
ing the effete mat. Tersely told, if Omaha
likes a fashion fad, Omaha makes use of it,
caring never a whit whether It originated
In Paris, Vienna, New York, Muncatlne,
Peoria, Reno or Frisco. If Omaha does
not like a fashion fad, Omaha rejects It,
no matter If It were sent by airship direct
from the French capital to the big stores
on Sixteenth street.
But the hobble gown has made It tri
umphal entry Into Omaha, and hobble gown
It will be until something new meets fa
vorable consideration as a auostltute.
The Bceno at the coronation ball waa be
wildering In Its brilliancy, and the deft
manner in which the dancer managed the
long trains of the hobble gowns as they
gracefut.y whirled In the entrancing mase,
excited simultaneous wonder and admlra
. tlon.
Never before waa there uch a gorge
ously magnificent display of evening
gowns at an Omaha function, and this as
sertion Is made deliberately with due re
gard for the fact that for sixteen years
Ak-Bar-llen's coronation ball has been an
vent to call forth the best efforts of the
classy modiste.
Gallant army officers, resplendent and
patriotic In all the gold lace toggery of the
war man, furnished a striking background
for the myriad of beautifully gowned wo
men. Diamonds and pearls scintillated and
the rich material of the dainty gowns, be
spangled with shimmering crystal of varied
. hue, made a picture so splendid, so brllll
; ant, so pretty in every reaped that the
sixteenth annual coronation ball of King
Ak-Sar-Ben will go down Into history as
an epoch In Omaha evening dress func
tions. Nothing gaudy, nothing tawdry, nothing
exaggerated about the gowns and the Jew
els worn by Omaha women on this memor
able occasion just a display of faultless,
quiet elegance bespeaking at once the cor
rect taste and the artistic Judgment of the
Ak-Sar-Ben lady.
Following Ak-Sar-Rm the autumn brides
and the fair debutantes occupy the atten
v tlon of society.
Tuesday of this week there will be three

WASHINGTON, Oct. s. Special to The
Bee.) Social Washington was deeply Inter
ested in the recent cabinet meetings at the
White House, at least in that part of them
which had to do with the filling of th
vacancies on the supreme court bench.
For be It understood that the supreme
court set cuts a big figure in in social
life of the capital, ranking above th sen
ate set In position.
It Is generally accepted that Justice
Hughes of New York will become chief
justice and Senator Sutherland of Utah
will get a place on the bench. This leaves
till two places to be filled, and there 1
much speculation a to what women will
be added to the highest official social set
through these appointments. .
With th near approach of the season
all society is making elaborate prepara
tions to entertain and to be entertained.
Th cabinet set la now nearly all her
and the diplomat are coming in rapidly.
The dean of the diplomatic corps, Baron
Hengelmuller, who spent th spring and
early summer at hi home in Austria, July
and August at Bar Harbor and beptember
at Lenox, Maaa., Is here. The meeting here
of the international prison congress 1 the
rason d'etre for th baron's coming at this
time, and although hi wife and daughter
will not accompany him to Washington,
he did some entertaining at the embassy
in honor of hi distinguished countrymen
who ar delegates to th congress.
One of th popular young couples of the
embassies this winter 1 bound to lie lienor
Don Jos Sale Dial, attach ot the Mex
ican embaaay, and hi charming young
wife. On very good reaion for thl is th
fact that th gentler half of the life part

Possibly, It la said, they were to some
extent dubious when It was announced
that the scion of their family had married
a daughter of "old Kentucky," but when
they met the young woman Don Joae bad
chosen fvt hi life partner they were de
lighted, for th same vivacity which haa
ever won the blue graa maid a place in
th heart of all men who love splendid

too. It waa remembered that the senora

dor Enrique Creel rejoices in claiming.
Assistant Secretary of State and Mr.
Huntington Wilson hav gone for a two
months' European sojourn.
Mr. Wilson was the acting secretary ot
state during the summer and Mrs. Wilson
remained In the city with him, acting a
the ranking official hostess on a number
of Important occasions. Much of the bur
den of official entertaining required of th
wife of the secretary of state, has, how
ever, devolved upon Mrs. Wilson In the
last year on account of a period of mourn
ing which Mra Knox,' wit of th secre
tary, has been observing for her brother.
Mrs. Wilson, who is one of the youngest
official hostesses In th city, has acquitted
herself with remarkable poise and dignity.
Count von Bernstorff, the German am
bassador, Countess von Bernstorff, and
their daughter, Countess Louise Alexandra
von Bernstorff, who have been abroad all
summer, are not expected at the embassy
until the latter part of October. The charge

do a good deal of entertaining thl season.
He Is having built a palatial horn on Six
