Allon, who were preceded by Lieutenant Eager and Lieutenant Pace in uniform. There were about two hun dred people present. Ices were served during the evening. Credit is due tho various committees for their careful di rection of affairs. There is a certain young lady in Lin coln whose charms have caught the eye of two of Omaha's prominent society devotees of the other sex and each of them has lately been concocting excuses for frequent trips to the city by Salt creek without the knowlodge that his rival knew of his attentions to the afore said damsel. One of them recently dis covered the other, however, and was in turn discovered in the same breath, and it was all due to the fact that somebody's telephone is on the same circuit with some other body's. Upon taking down his telephone, Mr. A. heard the follow ing brief bits of conversation between a young married lady of Lincoln who was visiting in Omaha and Mr. B: Mr. B "Whew! Is that so?" Mrs. C "Yes. And he was down again last Sunday and took a long walk with her all the after noon." It is said that Mr. A and Mr, B met the next Sunday afternoon in Lincoln and the old adage that "three is a crowd" was painfully verified. Omaha World-Herald.
