THE ACTIVE ELEMENT MOVES. The Various Receptions, Dancing Pa ties and Artists' Atractions Now—Coming Events For Pleasure's Votaries, Lent and Soclety. Society has succumbed to a state of collapse none the less complete that 1t was sudden and due to Ash- Wednest bringing a welcome release from sos obligations. Not only are the really de vout maintaining an apy ance of so- iety, but the members of dissenting de- nations bound to be in fashion in on, are “‘so glad that Lent iscome.” Society in general is delighted that any excuse should present itself as tief from the irksome and inane round of receptions, The slaves of society will be afforded a recuperation period from the stramn of deceiving themselves and others into the belief that everything 1s lovely within the charmed circle of the elect. The golden calf is banished for the convenient sack cloth and ashes and the god of mammon has given place to a deity whose influence is not visibly man- ifested on the regular devotees of society any time outside of the regulation period ot forty days. The church is thus made a seape goat by thoughtless outsiders who scofl at its beautiful traditions with- out reflecting that human vanity and sclf deception is alone to be cen- sured for this presumptious putting on and off of the garb of religion. A daily filtering of motives, a_thonghtfel analysis of all that is implied by that word, charity, an acquaintance with the virtue of humility, such as may extend the pew door, might reveal more sligicuse than seven s tical signil was given Lalf as much attention as its outward and visible forms, not only would the church escape undeserved thrusts from outsiders, but such an example might be set as is properly expected from profes- sors. After the resting spell society will get drunk once more before the approuch of warm weather brings other projects into prominence, The month of April will bristie with b nd receptions and a n of opera is also expected, so that the season of '87 will go out with a blaze of tireworks, so to speak. Elegant Reception. The reception given by Mrs. Alma Keith and Mrs. Carter Friday afternoon was an aflair of unusual elegance. The house is one of the most luxurious homes in Omaha, and an air of comfort and cheerfulness pervades it that is often ub- sent from richly furnished dwellings. Theentire lower floor connects by fold- ing doors, all finished m hard wood, and the house is heated by steam and lighted by electricity. The costly furnishings of the house, the moquette carpets, web like curtains of genuine Brussels, and Turk- ish portieres were enhanced by decora- tions of cut flowers. The table was beau- tiful with 1ts elaborate centre piece and festoonings of smils and the refresh- ments surpa; ng that has been served at an; vious reception in Omaha. Very few regrets were served, and the parlors were well filled from 8 to 6. The invitations were marked informal and were limited almost entirely to mar- ried ladies, The ladies who assisted in receiving were Mrs. Dr. Dinsmore, Mrs, L. A. Groff, Mrs, Copeland, Mrs. Colonel Akin and Mrs. Newton Hall. All were richly attired and well calculated for the performance of their duties. Those from Council Blufts present were Mrs. Van Orman, Mrs. G. A. Jackson, Mrs, Hunt- ington and danghter, Mrs. Dr. Clarke and daughter, Mrs. E. H. Haworth, Mrs. Ed. Mott, Mrs. Booth. The Kearney guests were Mrs. Judge Conner, Mrs. A. L. Webb, Mrs. Georgt Smith, Mrs. W. A. Downey and Mrs. R. L. Downey. The list included the following ladies: Gillespie, D.

The programmes were unique and tasteful and contained sixteen dances. It was by far the best attended ball ot the se and was a gratifying success both socially and finan- cially. The musie, furnished by Hoff: man’s orchestra, was divine. All who were fortunate to receive an invitation remember it as one of the pleasantest social events of the season, It is under- stood that the proceeds will ba devoted to the erection of a new church for the l.'llilf members which on account of the rapidly increusing congregation, is sadly needed, It is intended to erect a handsome church and parsonage after the model of a very handsome eastern cuurch as soon as a suitable loca- tion is cho The society in the most flouris condition "that it_has known for the last fifteen years.

Art Gossip. Miss Witmasser is accomplishing wen- ders in biack atd white, and has begun a diflicult stutly in oil. Miss Spratlen has painted two panels of mixed flowsns, admirable in arrange- ment and careful as to detail. Miss Shultz is busy on a head- of Aenid that promises to repay the amonnt ot conscientious labor bestowed on it. Conrad Heyd has made several por- traits of the wealthier Omaha citizens and has proved himself a valuable acqui- sition to artistic circles here. Mrs. Higgerson has completed a por- trait of Miss Mubel Balcombe that is a surprisingly faithful likeness, and shows anice conception of color. The back- ground is a warm. subdued biue-gray, that harmontzes well with the delicate, shadowy face, The drawing is faultless, and the entire handling of the portrait evidences great ability. Mr. Collins has completed a water color that will be exhibited at Rose’s next week. The picture represents a party of rush gathers at Connemara, Ireland, and isa very rare study. The distance is good and the broad characteristic dash of the artist 15 noticed at the foreground work. The old boat with its cargo of rush gatherers and the swimming dogs striking out to meet it are bold and spirited in drawing the entire treat- ment of the subject shows the unmistak- ble verve that igdividualizes the work of this gifted artist. The studios are receiving more atten- tion now that Lent has brought leisure. A visit to the various ateliers discovers many new and attractive devices for beautifying the home. Not only is a pircnt deal of decorative work being done that is sufficiently tasteful and ar- tistic to merit more than passing notice, but several ambitious canvases indicate a determination on the part of our ama- teur artists to invade the more complex aths of art. The fascination of dab- ling in flesh tints has seized on many, and in certain instances lhe result is be- yond anything that mightbe anticipated, Often an inferior likeness by some por- trait painter of foreign repute will bring a generous price when the work of home ar , DO ter how deserving, will be passed oyer without a word of commend- ation.

Corn Scores a Marked Advance, With Very Active Trading--Oats Tend Toward Higher Prices— Pork Stands Still. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. CHICAGO, March 5,—[Special Telegram to the BEE. Wheat caught the fever to-day and closed 2% /c higher than yesterday and 8!4c higher than the day preceding. First trades in May were at 80%c. The course of values was upwards thereafter, with only one reaction. The bulls had a pienie, the first they have experienced for sixty days, and they relished the entertain- ment immensely. The bears danced to the bull music and they were not given a rest from start to finish. No cause fo? the ad- vance was assigned beyond that which has existed for the past ten days or two weeks, but everybody seemed to realize at once that wheat was chieap, that it was a good thing to have, and an undesirable commodity to be short of. With the speculative appetite whetted to a keen edge by the success of the campaign in provisions, and attention turn- ing from dangerous pork and drooping stocks into other and more promising channeis, May wheat was run fromn S0%e to 513c. It then settled back 30 81i{e, moved up to 81} §@s13c, the market being steady and strong. A ggreat deal of business was done on the declive and on the recovery from 81}{c to 8! About half an hour before the closing prices started up onco more an d did not stop until 82i{c was reached. The last quotation was 823¢t, with April standing 7ic and June S3'ge. “At this range the market acted strong, but eased off on the curb. Cables were somewhat conflicting; but gen- erally steady. There was a vast deal of gos- sip atloat about deals and manipulation, but that was only to have been expected on so sharp a bulger. Any motion of values that is not downward has become associated in the minds of many with the manipulation idea. There was a continuation of the bull turn started in corn yesterday and speculative trading in the agerezate proved large, there being more outside orders than for sometime past. Several prominent traders irom the provision crowd came over and took a hand ln the deal, and as the shorts again rushed to lower prices were higher from the very out- set. ‘Lhe opening quotations were j@’{c above last night's closings. * Kirst trade being at 40%c for May May eased off i{c soon after the opening, but’ quickly reacted and advanced under heavy %cnuml and promiseuous buying to 4114c with scarcely an interruption. ~ At this pojnt Leopold Bloom, who was a big buyer at both sessions yesterday and on the curb, began to unload, and the market sagged under the pressure of the increased offerings 0 4075 (@40<c, but it did not stay down. The last half hour witnessed a recovery to 41'e and atl o'clock 41';@44!4c was bid. This was an advance of 1@1'sc in the leading fu- tures. There was considerable selling against cribbed corn to-day. The receipts continue fairly liberal, 282 cars being esti- mated for Monday. Of the 210 cars inspected 1 yesterday only sixteen were of contract grades. On this bulge the corn market has shown greater buoyancy relatively speaking than wheat. OatS were fairly ‘active, but most of the speculative business was trans- acted early. This market also had its little boom, May selling from 28}e up to 2010, closing within & small fraction of the top. Pork was inactive to-day with the price pegged at $21.00, though it was $21.05 for a moment. Several lines were said to have been settled yesterday between $20.00 and $21.00, but nommfi\ S done to- day so far as can be learned. There was ! y g in ribs and a fair degree ity in lard, There has been considerabl selling of weats durlng the past few duys a:ainst country stocks, and to-day there was unquestionably a good deal of unloading of the product bought for local speculative ac- count, Ribs for May sold to #5.85, and lard 10 $7.80, the forwer selling off later to $8.55%@ 8.57%¢, and closing at 88,574, and lard set- tiing down to 87.65, where it closed, There is more or less of the hoz product being shipped to Chieago in guantities suf- fieient to drown the market. Country stocks are not excessive and the country production of pork was exceedingly light this season, Ron any pork which is shipped in from t outside must s & rigid inspection, Omaba can forward considerable meat, but Kansas City, St. Louis and other western and southern points do not seem to_be over- stocked or to have more than enough to sup- ply their consumption trade. ‘The feeling on curb was easier at S13{c for May wheat and 40%¢ for corn.
