HELLMAN&CG A FAREWELL TO THE DANCE. To be Given This Season by De- termined Society Ladies. JINGLES AS A SUBSTITUTE. Pretty German Favors—The Mer- chants’ Ball at the Exposition Hall With a Review of the Week ~Minor Events. A New Social Game. The openly avowed intention of some of the society young women to eschew dancing this winter opens a wide field for the ingenuity reauirad to fashion amusements for a substi- tute. Already private theatricals are grow- ing in popular favor, but as this for.n of en- tertainment can only personally affect the gifted few, anytning new and diverting in cards or games of any sort would prove most welcome. In cultured Boston, in the early spring, the society people, surfeited with dancing and what not, gave some jingle parties which be came very popular, They originated in this wise: A number of young people gathered to- gether, wrote their names on bits of paper, which, being well shaken in a hat, were passed about for new possession, Each was expected to write an appropriate jiugie or rhyme on tho name drawn, after which they were returned to the receptacle for lost iden- tity, These were subsequently read aloud, and the result, in many instances, were very fu Whero ‘the hostess desired an” especially interesuing party, the names of the invited guests were written on slips of paper, scaled in tiny envelopes,shaken in & hat und then drawn out ana directed each in turn to one of those invited, thus giv- i0g him time to disunguish himself with bis “'"1!\1‘;’6 or three are then chosen to sit in judg- ment, and the cleverest rhyme is chosen, the nuthor of this is then obliged to confess, no matier how portinent and saucy the remarks may be, and to him the prize is awarded. As the chances are slight for being identified, the oportunities for spicy persoualitios are many, and the whole makes very amusing reading. The prizes can be made attractive and this game, With a bit of music, makes an cvening where one fecls one's wits have been whet- ted, smiles provoked and ears pleased with ® pretty jingle. A A Pretty German Favor. A new conceit in German favors can easily be fashioned at home by blowing the meat from eges through two small holes broken through cach end of the shell spd filling them with fiucly cut tinsel, then covering the tell-tale ho'es with little pictures that can be proeured in the shops and mucuaged on, or little Lits of ribbous put on the same way. Iinally gild the whole and the pretti- est possible savor is in the hande of a belle or beau to be broken over the head of the chosen partner, covering him or her with a veritable shower ot gold! Merchants' Ball, The wealth of decorations lavisked on Ex- position hall and the prodigality of expense preparation for the first annual vall of the merchant prioces of Omaba on Weduesday evening was the marvel of the week, The ball was beautifully decked with red, white and blue garlands, The great flumng arena wus covered with can- vas, while the spectators’ rostrum on the morth side of the bLall was & profusion of palms aud other tropical plants.

The music by the Musical Union orchestra was in keeping with the elogauce of the occasion, and the mem- bers played as though inspired- The programmes were unique and will be prized by the ladies who attended the ball as @ pretty souvenir of the occasion. A mono- gram in_red, white, black and_gold, and a pictuce of Omaha on one leaf of the outside with a picture of an ideal ball such us was the mercnants’, on the other.
