There is an interchange of hos pitality now existing which would not have been possible a few years ago; and, most remarkable of all, no English house-party is now quite au fait with out some smart American. Many New Yorkers who are spending July in Eng land on a tour of these parties, will re turn to Newport in August with a goodly representation of English guests. At the seaside resorts the quiet days of June hare given way to the opening ru6hof the July season. Crowds of pleasure-seekers from the heat-burdened cities and inland towns fill the hotela and cottages to overflowing. At Narra gansett Pier, Long Branch, Bar Harbor and Ocean Grove there aie more visitors than ever before so early in the season. At Cape May and Atlantic City the so cial life is fully inaugurated, the first big dances occurring on the Fourth of July. Newport is more beautiful this season than ever before. Gardeners, as well as the choicest of foreign shrubbery, have been imported, and the discovery of blue roses and green carnations would not be surprising in some of the hot houses. All Newport was out on the water in the early evening of the Fourth. The yachts and the detachment of a navy fleet in the harbor were ablaze with flags and bunting. It has been conceded that this will be a yachting year, and all indications point to nu merous entertainments on superbly fitted yachts which resemble floating hotels, and upon wbieh large parties may be accommodated. One summer is very much like another; but during the last two years there certainly has been an evolution of the summer girl. She no longer mopes on the hotel or cottage verandas, lamenting the delin quent man who refuses to come in and dine and dance; she goes forth to join him at his sports, which is an altogether preferable arrangement. The veranda girl is still to be found, for not every young woman is equal to the hot sun and the required effort for sports; but the smartest girls this summer are off in the early morning for hunting, riding or gclf. Many of these young women are wearing their hair in a thick braid down their backs, and the problem of unruly hairpins is thus solved. It is Baid that not in years has there been so fashionable a commencement as this year's at New Haven. Many of the graduating class were men represent ing New York's very smartest inner cir cle. Numerous yachts from Newport.Bos ton and New York came up for the final event, the boat race at New London, and, taking it altogether, probably no outgoing class of Yale ever enjoyed a gayer week. In New York the arrivals from Europe and the constant passing through of prominent persons have given a zest to tocial life. Most of the men are still in the city and are avail able for short suburban excursions in the evenings and dinners at some of the restaurants on the outskirts of the town. Dinners, by the way are good form only in the severest simplicity. Delicacy, shortness and superfine quality now are the ruling watchwords. John A. Sizer, son ot E. It. Sizer, was the victim ot a painful accident last Sunday at Kearney, where, with hiB brothor.be was visiting his aunt, Mrs. 0. W. Hoxie. In removing the chamois skin from a revolver the wrapj.ii!,' caught and the weapon was discharged, the ball passing through Master Sizer'b hand and lodging in the thigh. He was brought to Lincoln Monday, when the bullet was extracted, and the patient is rapidly recovering. Postmaster H. M.

Chief Justice Norval of the supreme court was in Lincoln Wednesday. Judge Norval has served for twelve years on the bench and while not an active candi date for re-election, still would not re fuse to accept a nomination if it were of fered to him. Mr. and Mrs. Ned C. Abbott spent Monday in Omaha, leaving for San Francisco Tuesday evening. They will sail for Manila on the transport Thomas, July 23. They will occupy the posi tions of government teachers in the Fili pines, under the direction of Superin tendent Atkinson, a Harvard graduate and well-known educator. Mrs. Stotsenburg, widow of Colonel Stoteenburg, has had a severe surgical operation performed. She is recovering slowly. It requires a year for severed nerves to knit, and meanwhile the pa tient is subject to a nervousness incom prehensible to one who has never been subjected to the shock. Mrs. Stoteen burg is very brave and her temperament assists recovery. Mr. and Mrs. George E. Tobey left Tuesday morning for a three weeks' trip through Colorado.
