ELEANOR'S LETTER
1 1 GERALD I II (ill
S Lipcota, Neb.
, it
My Dear Penelope: You say you are
getag away for a little while. I wish
I aright go with you, hut really Burl
ington beach and Lincoln park are
such superior places that I can for
swear the seashore with fairly good
grace. Not many young people have
left Lincoln for the summer yet, but
the exodus Is beginning, and I am
afraid a. good many will work the rail
roads or the banks and get away. Dr.
Spahr left -the first of the week for
York, Pa., where he will reside In
future, and Mr. Faueon said a per
manent good-bye to Lincoln "Wednes
day. He goes to Boston, where they
sake beans. Guy Hurlbut is having
thirteen large extension trunks made
and Just as soon as they are finished
he will pack his wardrobe and leave
far the summer. There Is said to be
a- ghi down In Massachusetts whose
faee will light up with a glad, sweet
ssaMe when Guy's trunks appear: Mr.
McCloud, who 'for the past year has
Been instructor la the English depart
ment m 'the state university, left for
the east this week. It is understood
that he will not return next year. The
remains ef the awath that he cut la
Lincoln society are still visible.
Charley Magoen told me the other
day that he would spend the summer
M Hawaii, taking up the work begun
ay Kate Field, and spreading the
movement for woman suffrage among
the natives, but I Imagine be was only
Jeting. I suggestted that he go to
Cuba and put down the Insurrection
by stepping on It. Tltwlllow Jones
wHl leave Monday for his native place
a the Island of Lllllput Frank Burr
may spend July and August In Wy
oming looking for gold and trout.
Dr. White, of the university, wHl go
home to Maryland. Prof. Owens will
spend the summer east Frank Zen
rung will spend several weeks decorat
ing the BJalto In New York. The
Baldwins are talking of moving out to
Meadowbrook farm for the summer.
Last Fourth of July society, or rath
er the younger element, was rent asun
der by two rival outings, one under the
direction of Messrs. Frank Burr, R. M.
1 Joyce et al., and the other headed by
Mattaon Baldwin. The feeling between
the projectors of these outings was not
so very pleasant, and there was a
'merry scramble to see which could
make the biggest showing. Between
the two the town was dragged, and
both parties were successes, especially
in attendance. This year there will.
In all probability, be a repetition of
the experiences 'Of a year ago. Ar
rangements are already being tmade
for two' outings at South Bend and
Meadowbrook by these two factions.
Next year guests will be booked for
the annual picnics as early as Janu
ary 1.
The dance given by Mr. and Mrs.
John T. Dorgan at Burlington beach
last Friday night was one of the most
successful out-of-door entertainments
given thus far. Mr. and Mrs. Dorgan
and 'Mc. Amasa Wilson and Miss Bine
hart received the guests. The party
was large, and the people danced with
something like the enthusiasm of the
early winter. The cool breezes blew,
the steer was la prime condition, and
the brave men and fair women made
the most of the occasion.
Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock Mr.
Edward B. Ransom was married to
Miss Maude May McCain, daughter
of George H. McCain, 1536 Vine street.
Dr Lasby performed the ceremony,
which was witnessed by relatives and
a small number of intimate friends.
Mr.. Ransom is the assistant cashier
eCthe Lincoln Street Railway com
pany, and Is well known In the social
circles of the city, while the bride is
an exceedingly popular young lady.
After the ceremony an informal re
ception was held prior to the departure
of the young couple for Denver and
Colorado Springs.
Thursday evening Mr. and Mrs.
George J. Woods, Mr. and Mrs. Mark
Woods, Mr. Mattson Baldwin and
Miss Rlnehart left for Hot Springs,
S. D. They will remain till the latter
part of next week.
Mrs. A. S. Raymond had a Kensing
ton on Monday afternoon. It was for
the special entertainment of Mrs.
Brown, who Is visiting her mother,
Mrs. Aitkin.
Had you heard that Mrs. A. S. Ray
mond is going abroad with her chil
dren? She goesln a few weeks. She
will meet Mrs. Andrew Raymond, who
Is already there, and the two families
will travel In company. In the winter
Arthur and Ruth are going to school
and Mrs. "Raymond will settle down In
some quiet pension with her children.
Helen Harwood will sail a week from
tomorrow, Saturday. Miss Ames of
Boston chaperons and conducts the
party, which consists of four young
ladies. Miss Harwood means to do as
much of Europe as she can comfort
ably this summer and spend the win
ter in Paris. When she is settled for
the winter she has planned to con
tinue work on her theses the Bastlle.
She will have access to original docu
ments and looks forward with much
satisfaction to this 'especial plan.
Captain and Mrs. Gullfoyle gave a
card party on Tuesday evening and
another on Thursday evening. There
were five tables, the game was whist
the north and south kind, you know,
that Lieutenant Townley knows all
about Mr. R. J. Greene, Mrs. Ladd
and Mr. Ogden took prizes for rapid
and sound deductive reasoning, Tues
day evening.
Mrs. Buckstaft gave an early morn
ing card party on Wednesday. The
ladles stayed to luncheon and got
heme in time for an afternoon nap.
Thursday evening the young men at
Worthington academy gave a dancing
party. The court of the school build
ing was full of frlends(of the boys.
Nothing marred the enjoyment of the
evening except the last car home and
that about broke it up.
On Saturday night Miss Henrietta
Hollowbush will give a party for Miss
Houston, Mrs. F. W. Brown's guest
They say that the party given by the
Lincoln club at the beach tonight will
be the most elegant and lavish of all
the club parties of the winter. It will
probably be the close of a brilliant
season for this new club. Mr. Cook,
Mr. Green and Mr. Wilson, who In
vented the Lincoln club, certainly de
serve choice praise. I have not missed
one of the parties so far and I can
truthfully say that there have been
no functions so elegant and exclusive
since Lincoln society drew its first
conscious breath.
Yours lovincly
