LENTEN SEASON FORGOITEN. Omaha's Sociely Finds No Tims for a Rost, \BEHIND THE PURPLE CURTAIN. Little Parties, Teas and Receptions Speed the Leaden Hours—A Lull in Larger Entertainments Bocial Gos Is Lent Unfashionabl:? Has Lent cone out of fashion that there Appears 80 little inciination on the part of the soclety people everywhere to observe the church’s demands for the season! A halt has been called in the larger enters tainments, to be sure, but smaller evenings are as plentiful as leaves in the Vallambrosa and sackcloth and ashes are little more than empty soundings, A regard for the proprioties prevents any display on the part of the Episcopalians, but custom cannot stale the infinite variety of expedients for fleeting time pleasantly be - hind the purple curtain. Dowagers, blossoms and buds alike join_ the ' butterfly throng. luncheons, card parties and teas hold their attention and the much talked of rest has de veloped into dream stuff. In a way it is to be regretted, for aside from the performance of the occlesiastical requirements from pious motives, it was a charming sight in other days to see misty-eyed women, prayer books in band, with fuces and thoughts turced churchward. If their repen were not of the hieart-rent order it was edifyimg and uplifting to a degree, making man regarding this self-abnsement, realize all his own vile ness by comparison, ‘I'he voluntary exile from society showed its good results 1n burmished thought brought about by @& closer intimacy with books. ¥rom ‘tears of contrition the sweet faces emerged rested and refreshed ns o garden after a rain. Reasonable hours brought healthfulness and happier mien, all combining to clevate the spirit making fast ing and prayer a privilege rather than an onerous duty. ‘ar be 1t from mo to say that this variance from the strict order of churchly rectitude is an evidence of backsliding. It way be an honest awakening from much that was pre- tense, and as the sins of the fair women about us are no doubt those of omission they can better remedy their fault i the world than in retirement. Argue as you will, there is a tendency to gloss over the lenten duties on the part of women here in New York, Chicago and elsewhere. It is like an fuvasion by gaiety of the sad somber- ness of lent, such as one sees in the riot of October when the gardens overflow, scatter- ing their leaves of red and gold far into the otherwise colorless street, A Pretty Tea, On Monday Mrs. R. Anderson gave a pleasant 7 o'clock ten with the folling guests: Mrs. R. Fagen, Mrs. Alfred Gregory, Mrs. A. B. Carpenter, Mrs, H. L. Seward, Mrs. Van Horn, Mrs. W. Weeks, Mrs. G. H. Webster, Mrs. K.

A Mi-Oareme Wedding. A woman and & man with hand clasped in hand, oyes shining with happiness, and hearts exulting with love, a bower of roses and lilics and a bundful of friends narrow- ing toacirclo of the nearest and dearest, would transform a stormier March than this 1uto June time. Such was the metumorpha- sis yesterday afternoon, when the marriage of Miss Miriaw Cnase, daughter of Mrs, Warren Chase, to Mr. Percy Ford was cele brated.

FRENCH SUCCEEDS SHROPSHIRE. Minnesota Knuckles to Pike and Gives Him Fall Swing to Peddle Degrees and ititoals and Bars All Competitors. K. of p. E.E. French has been appointed represent- ative to the supreme lodge vice J. 8, Shrop- shire, resigned. A few weeks ago an item was published in this department to the ef- fect that Mr. Shropshire Md removed his family to Butte, Mont., wlere he is attorney for the Union Pacific railroad, and had, in fact, made “a change in residence.” 'iheo article further stated that Mr. French would probably succeed Mr. Shropshire as supreme representative, as that was the do- sire of the latter. This item was copied in an editorial in one of the Pythian publica- tions under the caption, *‘What Nonsense.” The editorial then went on to say: “This is a apecimen of the reliable news which fre- quently appears in those Omaha papers which” pretend to publish socret socicty news, ete.,” and proceeded to denounce it as utterly without foundation. 'he paper pub- lishing this uncalled-for tirade never struck the nail more squarely on the bead than when it refer paragraph 1n ques- tion as “reliable.” That 1t was perfectly reliable the sequel shows. Mr. Shropshir forwarded his resignation to Grand Chan- cellor Macfarland soon after his removal from the stite, but the latter did not tako any action in the matter until & few days since. The appointment of Mr. French is a well deserved recoguition of that gentie- man's worth and taithful service. He beld the office of grand keeper of records and seals for twenty years, being the first person elected to that position, and being re-elected continually uutil the last session. Mr. French is one of the best posted men on Pythian law 1n the state and is pre-etmiently aualified to succeed Mr. Shropshire, who was recognized as one of the wost prominent, members of the supreme lodge. Great re- gret was expressed when it became kuown that Mr. Shropshire was to remove from the state, but the appointment of Mr. French will meet with the approval of all interested parties, The term for which Mr. French nas been appointed expires at the next meet- ing of the graud lodge, when a successor will be elected. A merry party started for Milwaukee Monday eveuing to view the grounds in- tended for the encampmentof the Uniformed Itank next July, in accordance with instruc- tions from Major General Carnahan, The purty cousisted of Colonel H. M. Dowrs, Adjutent Richard O'Neil, and Quarter: master Rehlander of the First regiment, and Colonel Sizer, aide-de-camp on the staft of the brigadier general, all of Lincoln, with tho following ~Omula officers: Colonel Crager, A. D. C.,Lieutenant Colonel Brown, Adjuwnt Corte, Quartermaster Snyder and Captain Ware. ' Brigadier General Dayton had intended to accompany tno party, but was prevented from doing so. . The chancellor commander of one of the lodges is about to take unto himself a wifo, but us he is rather bashful he has requested that his name be withbeld. Grand Chancellor Macfarland instituted Rathbone lodge last Mouday night at Pythian hall. The following officers were installed: 12, H. A, C. C., L. L. "Thompso; 7 . Beche J. P. D. Lloyd: K. R. and S., John W. Eyf M. ot B., A" E. Pike; M.of I, J. C. Fishe: M. at A, W. D. Vest.

Price, vice chaucellor of Rapid City lodge. both ‘of Rapid City, S. D.. were in the city Monday and called on Grand Chancellor Macfarland. They were also visitors at the Pythian club and” were entertained by tho boy A new lodge will be institutel at Pender this week and an application has been re- ceived for another lodge. A new lodge will be Creek very 800 installed at Elm L 0. O I The joint committee appointed by tne Omalia and Council Blufts lodges to arrange for thd entertainment of Grand Sire Under- wood during his visit next mouth, heid an- other meeting at Council Bluffs Wednesday night. 1t was decided to issue invitations to all lodges in Nebraska to be present and par- ticipate, also the First regiment of the Plutte, Patriarchs Militant, the First regi ment of Towa, and all lodees in Towa within a radius of 150 miles from the Blufts. The sub- colmittees reported that arrangements had been completed for the reception and parade, the reception and speeches at the opera house in the afternoon and the ball in the evening at the Masonic hall. On the 25th inst. the grand sire gnd his escort, consist- ing of the grand master and grand patriach of Iowa, and the four representatives to the sovereign grand lodge, will be es- corted to this side and given a carriage riae about the city. The order is making substantial progress in the nothwestern territories. Arrauge. ments are in progress for the institution of the fifth lodge in Alberta, and already the orgauization of a grand lodge is being mooted. Brother Kidder, in thg Manchester Union, recommends a tax of five cents annually on each member of the Rebekah degree lodg: Tho amount is small, he argues, and possi- bly no obe could object, and with this mount the invested funds of tho grand lodge would be intuct, as it requires just about this additional amount to meev the cxpens?2s of the grand body. Poor Old Minnesota. Speaking of the action of the Minnesota Masonie grand lodge at its recent session the New York Mercury says ‘‘the grand lodge of Minnesota lras issued a decree grauting a monopoly of Scottish rite degreo selling to Brother Albert Pike with an additional privilege 8t doing as he pleasca with the Ancignt Craft Masonry in that jurisdiction, It empowers him ‘to adopt the first three do- grees of Masonry’ and ‘to use as much of the esoteric ceremonies as may bo necessary, while declaring no other socisty or organi- zation to ba regular save those purchasing of him. For years Pike has been in the habit of selling printed copies of the ritual of the symbolic degrees and when called to account for this gross violation of his obligations has asserted that his degrees wera of the Seot- sl rite with no counection with York Ma- sonry. Now he is authorized to sell them as the standard work of Minnesota, and will undoubtedly reap & good paying harvest, While smiling at the iogenuity of Pike's liter cuterprise, one must laugh outrizht at the spectacle of Minuesota’s cowplucency in converting its grand master juto an advertising medium for another man's wares, True Scottish rite Masoury has no connoction whatever with that of the York, and, as it is open to the world and has been for more than a hundred years, us a purely philosophical systew, no one man can_have a proprietary right in dis semination of information conveyod in its degrees.” A0, U X Union Pacific lodge, No. 17, passed a reso- lution some time ago dovoting the fifth Mon day 1n months which contain that number of Mondays, to the holding of entertainments for the geod of the order, Heretoforo these entertainments have been public and have becn very enjoyable affairs, having been in charge of a committeo well skilled in prepar- Ing an entertaivwg programme.
