The old-time method of celebrating New has fallen ‘in Omaha and the pros pects of its being again revived are very dis couraging. The reason given by the ladies for this is that the privilege was abused by certain groung men. It often happened that #le young follow who happened to know 8o, swell society lady would invade the precincts of her refined home on N Years' day with a gang of fellows not of Y[xl‘ bhest reputation, who at any other time would be ordered ont, The laay in turn would be forced by courtesies of the day to introduce the gang to the voung ladics receiving with her, and undesirable and disagreeable ae- quaintances were thus formed. This abuse a8 been practiced to such an extent th ew Year's calling has fallen into aisfav among the ladies, and as they are supreme in the ennctment of social laws, the time honored custom has been quictly abandoned In its stead, however, anumber of socinl affairs have been substituted and New Year's day was a lively one among Omuha society people.

The elegant mansion was a perfect bower of roses and plants, while 150 Chinese lantars shed their softlight over the lawn. The main feature of the evening was dancing, and the musi Union orchestra, in keeping with the grand eur of the occasion, eclipsed all its past musical efforts, The dancing programmes were very unique, and the cleven witty rules and regu ions on them excited much mer- riment, There were but twelve dances, the last ending at midnight. As the New Year was ushered in the entire company was prouped for a flush light photograph. ~There was considerable fun going on, but the pho- tographer finally managed to gret the guests quiet enough to take their pictures, “The company then adjourned to the dining room, where they sat down toa splendid champagne supper, Everyone present was attired in full even- ing_dress, and the toiletsof some of the ladies were dazzling in their loveliness.
