couruged, has learned through tho at
tention of the ladies of tho Flower Mis
sion, to look forward to brighter things,
and there are many who await eagerly
the weekly visits of the fair women
laden with beautiful flowers and bring
ing alwajB sunshine and good cheer.
The mission has accumulated a con
siderable reserve fund, and is laying
money away every week, eo that it may
be possible to extend its field of opera
tions, and increaso its beneficence. At
the business meeting Wednesday
numerous projects for tho advancement
of the little society were discussed, and
it was decided to give a Flower Mission
ball. The date of this entertainment
. was fixed at Friday, November sixth
Several years ago, two different seasons'
society concentrated its efforts on a
'grand charity ball, which events will be
remembered as among the most succes
sful charitable enterprises ever under
taken in the city, as well as particularly
brilliant social events. The first of
these balls, given about seven years ago
was a favorite project of Mr. A. C.
Ziemer, and all tho ingenuity of that
ingenious gentleman was expended in
the endeavor to make the ball eclipse
anything of the sort ever held in Lin
coin. Those who remember the beau
tiful ilower arrangement, the brilliant
lighting effects, and general elegance of
the charity ball will say that Mr. Zie
mer and those who worked with him
achieved a notable success. There is a
vast amount of work in the pieparation
for one of these balls.and for several years
no one has been brave enough to at
tempt it It remained for the Flower
Mission to improve tho original idea.
The Flower ball will have the benevolent
purpose of the Charity ball, with an ad
ded novelty and sprightliness. An ef
fort will be made to make it the dis
tinctive society event of the season. It
is the intention to give the ball in the
state house if permission can bo secured.
Another subject discussed was the ad
visability of issaing a little Flower Mis
sion paper. Members of the society

Miss Lillian Russell has several fads.
One is cold baths in all seasons.
Another is the gathering together of
the slippers of historical ladies, of which
now more than three hundred, but her
chief fad is the collection of old and odd
coins. Her aportment of these coppers
is said to be worth $20,000. In her New
York home she has a large apartment
filled with tho most curious specimes.
Every coin collector in the cily seeks
her whenever ho has discovered some
thing in the coin line old enough to be
new.
