/ 7 SéME SOCIAL STEW. Dipped from the Kettle of a Week's Simmering with the Usual Trimmings of Olub Receptionsand An Omaha Young Lochinvar and His Ohio Sensation, Boeial Notes and PolitenPerson- alities. . As Christmas approachos the social whirl becomes fasterand more furious. Scarcely a night passes but our society pinks put out their petals and blossom in hall or parlor, and scarcely an even- ing goes by in which our Omaha belles are not compelled to refuse several of the many conflicting in- vitations which are pressed upon them. ‘‘Anotherengagement’ is now the general oxcuse, and comes into excellent service in securing the ab. senco of uncongenial escorts. Of course, all society is eagerly expectant over the coming ‘‘Pleas- ant Hours One Hundredth Party’ which, rumor has it, is to be the most elegant ever given in Omaha. If milliners and dressmakers could only give away professional secrets of the magnificent toilets now in prepa- ration and their prospective cost, it is impossible to say how many young men would be frightened from all thoughts of matrimony. On this ac- count it is perhaps fortunate that their lips are sealed, President Squires is mysteriously reticent about the ar- rangements now being made by the club management, but enough has been dropped to make [t certain that Masonic hall will eclipse any so- cial scene ever before witnessed in Omaha. Without further ado Tur BEE presents its usual social resume of the week, prominent in which is the party of the “‘PLEASANT HOURS.” There are few social clubs which can boast a continued existence of ninety-nine parties which was the number concluded by the ‘‘Pleasant Hours” on Tuesday evening at Masonic Hall. The attendance was large but not too numerous to prevent ample floor room for the dancers who from half past eight until after midnight, with the usual intermission for sup- er, trod the mazy dance to the de- ightful accompaniment of Prof. Hoff- man'’s excellent orchestra. Words of praise have so often been spoken of officers and committees that it is needless to repeat them here. A most delightful evening was spent by every member of the club fresent, who with attending ladies and invited guests were as follows: E. S. Dundy and Mrs. J. L. Web- ster, Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Squires, H. Schneider and Mrs. Schneider, Mr. and Mrs, Leva Carter, Mr. and Mrs, Major Furay, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Nye, Mr. and Mrs, H. D.

The fourth party of the ‘“Sen Cere- menie” Club took place on Tuesday evening at Standard Hall. With the best of music, an excellent floor, a palatable supper and congenial com- panionship a most delightful even- ing was the necessary result.

Morgan, P, Morgan, Chambers, Bishop, Kimball, Sharp, Goetschius, Connell, Tillottson, Calderwood, and Messrs. R. Carrier, J. Carrier, J. W. Foster, Deuel, A. W.

The last party of the Imperial Club's first series occurred on Friday even- ing at Masonic hall under the usual efficient management, The attend- ance was large and select, the music was of Hoffmann’s choicest and the committees untiring in their attention to the comfort of the guests. The rogramme consisted of sixteen num- ers. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Davis, Mr. and Mrs. John R. Manchester, Mr. and Mrs, Ed. Haney, Mr. and Mrs. L. H, Korty, Mr, and Mrs. A.

Vocal and instrumental music and & sumptuous supper whiled away the too short hours, It wasa most delightful atfair. Among the participants were Mr. and Mrs, James, Mr. and Mrs. Hancock, Messrs. Adamowski, Leibling, and Pease, George Sauer, Julius Mayer, and _C. H. Hendricks. of Omaha; and Dr. John D. Hillis. Miss James is engaged by Mr Maurice Strakosch as leading soprano of his opern somsany, She begins this season during the holidays at Baltimore in **Carmen.” Miss James possesses a sweet voice, of great dra- matic force, excellent in compass and quality, sympathetic and melodious in both fuwur and upper register. In addition to these qualitications, she is very telligent, prepossessing and charming in manner, We predict for her a brilliant future. The Philoma- thean club desiring to give our music loving people anopportunity of hearing Miss James, have engaged her to sing at its next concert on Thursday even- ing, December 156th at Boyd's Opera House. We trust our people will evince their app: eciation of the ener- gy and enterprise displayed by this club, by turning out en masse on Thuraday evening next, A delightful treat is instore for all who attend. MATRIMONIAL KNOTS, Omaha can boast of having fur- nished one of the most dashing Young Lochinvars of modern times in the verson of Mr. Will B. Ogden, formerly connected with Messrs Collins Bro's, leather establishment, and well known in society circles *in our city. Mr. Ogden left Omaha for the east a fow weeks since without causing the least suspicion of his intentions of becom- inga Benedictand completely upsetting the peace of a quiet Ohio town. The announcement is now made that on Tuesday, November 28, he was mar- ried in & most romantic maunner to Miss Clara Moore, of Newark, Ohio, only daughter of Mr. Jesse Moore, a millionaire merchant of that city, whom he first met some twelve months ago while on a visit to Lin- coln in this state. Fuller particulars may be gleamed from the following account furnished by a local paper of the date of December 1: ““The little social sensation which all Newark society has been gossiping about for the past two days, is now over, and all 18 serene. The facts in the whole business are about as fol. lows: Miss Clara Moore, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Moore, made arrange- ments, and intended, as her parents and friends supposed, to go to Columbus, Tuesday, to visit an old school friend. She and Mr. W. B. Ogden, of Omaha, Nebraska, took dinner Tuesday, with Mrs. T. K. Sut- ton, Miss Clara’s sister. After dinner they went to the B. & O. depot, os- tensibly to take the Columbus train, it being understood that Mr. Ogden was going home via Columbus, on the same train, But shortly before noon, Mr. Ogden had slipped up to the Court House, and obtained a marriage license for himself and Miss Moore. He bought two tickets, for Alliauce, Starke county, a station on the Ft. Wayne road east of Mansfield, and they took for the train for the north, while a certain young gentleman, who had a good right to be interested, was watching the Columbus train, on the other side of the depot. But they didn’t go to Alliance. They stopped at Mansfield, and were married there yesterday. A letter was received last night, stating that Mr. and Mrs. Ogden would be ‘“‘at home” this morning to all their friends, at the Palmer house, Chicago. What makes the affair all the more strange, is the fact of the lady’s engagement to a well known young gentleman of this city, He and all the friends of both parties, supposed everything lovely in that direction, until the fact concerning the marriage license was known. Mr. and Mrs, Ogden will reside in Omaha, Nebraska, where Mr. Ogden is engaged in business. “Oh k\'il- liam?” In Reno, Nevada, Thanksgiving ove, at the residence of the bride's father, by the Rev. G. W. De La- Matyr, Mr. F. McRae, who is con- nected with the C. P, R. R. to Miss Flora M. Loomis, all former residents of Omaha but now members of society of this place. After the ceremony the happy couple boarded the over- land train for San Francisco, taking with them the best wishes of a host of triends. The San Francisco papers chronicled their arrival at the Palace where they arrived to take Thanks- giving dinner. After spending several days amid the scenes ot pleas- ure at the Pacific metropolis, they will return to Reno. They were the recipients ot many elegant presents. The marriage of Mr, Leander M. Cheshire, of the U, P, freight depart- ment at Council Bluffs, took place at Withoell, Dunham, Riley, Canaan, Albung, N.

Correspondence of Tik Brn. Lixconn, Neb., December 9.— Gen. S. J. Alexander has given notice that be will receive sealed proposils until January 24th, from the cities and towns throughout the State who are desirous of securing the location of the next soldiers reunion. It is a big af- fair and wiil be quite a catch for the one that secures it. In addition to the regular line of Herdics, Manager O'Pelt has pur- chased a new transfer wagon which will be known as the Herdic baggage wagon and .accommodate the Herdic paesengers. Manager Church, of the Opera House, has been notified that the license will hereafter be one hundred dollars instead of forty, and he very justly objects. By referring to other cities larger than this it is shown that they pay about half that amount and he claims the sameé rights. Among the many bridal presents re- ceived by Mrs. H. M. Atkinson was ® diamond ring valued at one thou- sand dollars from a friend of the General'’s, and a blank check signed and only lacking the filling up of the amount. The Union olub, composed of Lin- coln’s best and most influential men, held a meeting the fore part of the week and decided to call i a body New Years. Should their new rooms be ready in time, their ladies antici- pate receiving calls there ina body. Their new rooms are in the addition to the Academy of Music, and when completed will eclipse anything in the state. The following article is the manner in which one of our city papers speaks of Cchuyler Colfax who has been se- cured to deliver a lecture here some time in the near future: ‘‘It is now definitely settled that the great American thief and Christian thimble- rigger, Smiler Colfax, is to shoot off his Credit Mobilier mouth in this city on the 4th of January! Poor Lin- coln, The Hoey Hardie combinaticn played here on the evening of the 5th and Gth, and the general verdict is a becter, stronger or more evenly balanced troupe never visited Lin- coln. The costumes of the ladies were made by Worth of Paris and were therefore elegant, The Entre Nous Club made a pro- position to the Pleasant Hours to con- solidate the two, giving each an equal share of officers, honors, etc., but af- ter taking the question into consider- ation the P, H. reported unfavorably but proposed voting on each individ- ual member. The P. H. Club was never in as good condition as at the present time, its members including the best young gentlemen in the city and a well filled exchequer, and there- fore are not anxious to consolidate with any club, ‘fhe merchants of Lincoln have pre- pared a list of the men who are not in the habit of paying their debts and intend publish- ing it the first, of Jan- Y B . M ‘..V that'one or the other trip the light fantastic, Miss May Fuirfiold gave o very plensing dinner party to a few friends on the evening of the 7th, in henor of Miss Mercer, of Brownyille, Miss May can not be excelled a8 a hostess and all presont passed a most delight- ful evening. The Shakesperian club gave a ro- coption to the Avon club on the even. ing of the Gth, at the resdence of Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Nowman. About forty couples were present who yassed & very pleasant and profitable evening in discussing the !iln. works and characteri: of the great poet. Miss Fannie Newman, who has just graduated from the Chi- cago musical college, played “Rha- prodie Hongroise,” by Listz, and Mrs, Selaney recited in a very able manner a seeno from Romeo and Juliet. Theso receptions are held once a mouth, and are urentl{ enjoyed by the members and frisnds who are fortunate enough to be present. Among the visitors at Lincoln at the present time are Miss Alico Jud- kins, of Brownville, and Miss Molhe Thurman, of Tecumseh, the guests of T. W, Lowrey; the Misscs Sawyer, Whitmore and Wood, of Aurora, 111, friends of Mrs. W. N. B. Stout.

In each gallon there are 14.58 grains of solid matter. It appears that the university dor- mitory never proved a profitable in- vestment, perhaps becauso the right person never had the management, The mortgage has been foreclosed and a time was set tor selling it, but there being no bidder it has been ex- tended to a time in the near future, A well conducted establishment of this kind is just what the students want here, for there is no question but what they are compelled to pay too much for board. Miss Maude Maggie Mullon enter- tained a few friends on the cvening of the 7th. The party was in honor of Miss Castotter, who leaves for her home in a few days. The mayor and council have . rdered that a new election shall take place on the 27th day of December to decide whether or no the city of Lincoln will issue bonds to the amount of §10,000 for the establishment of a system of water works in_this city. The pros- pects are that the bonds will be car- ried. The Pleasant Hour club gave one of therr pleasant dances cn the evening of the 8th inst. in which some twenty- five couples participated. The P.
