The Junior Promenade, which has
been looked forward to with most pleas
ant anticipation for so long, came off
last night at the Lincoln. Nor was the
pleasure any less than was expected.
The music was the best, the program
was a good length and the floor in a fine
condition. The satisfaction of the even
ing was added to by the many beautiful
decorations. The parlors were done in
pink, and were given a more home-like
appearance by the many lamps and
h were arranged so artis
tically. Tne ordinary was decor
ated in red, and strawberry ice'
was served there between dances.
The south end of the dancing hall,
where the orchestra was stationed, was
decorated with the class colours, black
and gold. The opposite end of the hall
was covered with a large flag. The
sides of the hall were decorated by the
different fraternities. The Delta Gam
mas had streamers of their colours
caught up with their mojupgram. The
Beta Theta Pi, Sigma Alpha Epeilon
Kappa Alpha Theta fraternities had
their colours fastened with fraternity
pins. The Delta Delta Delta and other
fraternities had long streamers of their
colours fastened in conspicious places.
Altogether this was one of the most
successful promenades ever given.

work, was composed of Roy Sawyer
master of ceremonies; Messrs Whedon,
Fechot, Brown, Snuff, O. Brown Boomer,
Kind. Miss Helen Woods, chairman of
decorating committee; Misses Stewart
Macfarland, Harley and Shanck.
The Lincoln parlors and dancing b?Il
were rilled on Monday evening by the
guests of the Delta Gamma fraternity.
It is very seldom that tho rooms ever
presented so beautiful and attractive an
appearance. The tones were for tho
most part red. Both dancing ball and
parlors were decorated lavishly with
red hearts. The shades were red and
the flowers were red. Tho ordinary was
made to look cosy and restful by long
couches covered with cushions. Tho
table where red ices were served by
Misses Mullen, Dennis and Rice was
lighted with red candalabra and adorned
with red carnations. The cilors of the
fraternity, blue, pink and bronze, were
also much in evidence. Screens, lamps,
rugs, cushions, all helped to make every
nook and corner attractive. Tin pro
grams were heart-shaped and were
daintily decorated with water colors.
The music was furnished by Miss Wil
Ioughby's orchestra and was all that
could be desired. Besides the guests
from other fraternities there, were pres
ent many from other cities, among
whom were Misses Cole, Tukey, Kelly
and Reynolds, Messrs. Young and Bow
man from Omaha; Miss Niel from Colum
bus, Ohio; Miss Neeman from Schuyler!

was "a thing of beauty," but a
pretty foot encased in a handsome
pair of shoes from our stylish, well
titting stock is "a joy forever," be
cause they are simply perfection.
No cores, bunions or cramped feet
from wearing our tine shoes
In morning golden with life's promise,
Gleams the beckoning hand of joy,
Fair, elusive on she flitteth,
Now draws near, retreating coy.
Through the thickets youth pursueth,
Passing blossoms gayly rare,
Seeing naught of heaven's beauty
In the sky and grass and air.
By the streamlet's edge she lingers,
Lost to sight in dream-like mist;
In he plunges to discover
Joy beyond in sunlight kissed.
Thus he wanders e'er pursuing
Down the years till youth be past,
Hope abateth, then it chanceth
Clasps the lovely form at last.
But is this Joy, large-eyed and sad,
With self-effacement in her look?
Not Joy, that careless-hearted maid,
Her form, her sister Sorrow took.

Senators and Legislatures.
The Kentucky legislature has recently
asked Senator Lindsay to resign because
he is not in favor of the free coinage of
silver. This action has been followed by
the introduction of a resolution in the
New York assembly requesting the resig
nation of Senator Edward Murphy, Jr.,
ot this state, becausa he voted for the
Teller resolution. Neither of these reso
lutions is of any real importance, al
though government of the nation by
state legislatures would doubtless be
quite as intelligent as government by
the present United States senate. The
Kentucky legislature does not really ex
pect Senator Lindsay to vote against bi3
convictions, nor do the republicans of
the New York state legislature expect
Senator Murphy to think of an thing
but his machine, and the sufficient pro
tection of collars and cuffs. Harper

blizzard.
Boston! an No; we shall never en
tirely recover.
Gothamer Were your pecuniary
losses eo heavy?
Bostonian Not at all; but we were
cut off from the rest of the worlu for
two days and nobody missed Boston.
You may laugh at a maa's expense
but you can't always "smile" at bis expense.
