The sun just sinking beyond the westorn plateau over in Nebraska gave a tingo of brightest color to the scone, illumi- ating the erecnness of tno hills that sloped Away to the ghorizon. elow, toward the pouth, in green curves and mimic bays cov- pred with herbage, the banks mingled with the wator. The few troos aboat the lako Btirred not; no voice of evening birds broke the stillness. The scenc was one of quiot- pess and gloom; the exceeding serenity of the day contrastad with the almost un pleasing brightness, the absence of life, the dreary olitude that overhung the wholo scene. Far out on the gleaming bosom of the lake, seom- fngly floating on surfaco of molten wold, still and motionless liko unto “a painted ship upon a painted ocean,” stood a solitury boat. Tts sail, as daz?ling whito in the evening unlight as the purest alabaster, hung life- Em from the spars; every rope, ‘every plank o faithfully reproduced in refloction that the eve of an artist might not distinguish tho work of man from that of nature. Upon tho crait itself crouched a man, truly a kuight with a sorrowful countenance sitting thore in silence, his brow overcast with gloom and drivping with peespiration. And ever anon 4 pked up aloft, With eyes which were not fuil of glee: e then would remark in tones sweet and “Siiling Is not what 1v's cracked up to be." {xa.n ful tanen A\t and sweet!

Around the littls table in the *den” many of the bright men and women havo gathered and “over the walnuts and the wine” have felt the artistic surroundings and reflected it by bright bon mots and clover sallies of wit. It was thor- oughly a Bohowiau shrine, for the lares and pooates were gathered therein, arranged 41 picturesque confusion by thoe hand of the artist who now laments thair loss, Possibly 8 nower “den” will rise like the phasuix from the usues of the old p but 1t can hardly be 5o genuincly attractive as was the room Just destroyed.

Tho excessive heat of tho past week caused a general rush for the parks and shady places where 1t was cool; but, alas, not all wasas quiet as was the case last Tuesday evening, when a party of gay and festive young people, at tho suggestion of a merry maiden, hied themselves to Hanscom park and partook of a dainty Juncheon, which wasso temptingly arranged and witnal so appetizing that no wonder on the trip home- ward the nir was filled with music, Those who participated were the Misses Naismith (Laramic), Efio Naismith, Kay- mond, Margaret Beanetr, (lla Simpson, Roso Oliver, Ellsbury, Nealy, David, Wal® lace, M.

Thirty-five young ladies issued invitations to as many gentlemen toa very ploasaut leap year lawn party at the rosideace of Dr. Kinsler, 2024 Binney Placo, last Wednesday ovening, The first part of the ovening was spent on the pleasant lawn, when the storm drove them indoors to still other amuse- wents. 'I'he lanterns and headlights whick illuminated the lawus were eclipsed by the lightning’s flashes, and the broad porches where the merry dancers had been were deserted for the more comfortable parlors and dining rooms. The refreshments, which were to have been served on the lawn, came suddenly indoors and were eaton to the tuno of pouring rain. But it was a very ploasant paruy, with its variety of incident, and how thoroughly the young people did enjoy the ovening, notwithstanding the rain, Highly 8 On Eriday evening the first lawn social under the auspices of the Young Man’s insti- tute, at the corner of 15th and Chicago streots, was given, under excentionally fav- orable circumstances. 1t wns a success both socially and financially, 1000 people throng- ing the grounds and devoting themselves to viewing the storeopticon sketebes, offered by Mr. Rasgorshek. All kinds of interest- ing and entertaining views of prominent places of history were shown, together with nes of our 0wn country, interspersed with comical views of all kinds. On the whole the entire exhibition was bighly appreciated. T'ho other features of the sociable were in— deed pleasant, and it is only as a mark of respect to admiration of the result of the endeavors of the social committee to say their efforts were deserviog of much praise, as it was the popalar verdict of all in attend. ance that they had enjoyed & very pleasant avouing.

Asnury Pang, N, his is ahout the way tne girls dress at Asbury Park, for we are a reli- gicus colony, we are, and loudness in bathing cos- tumes are prohibited, 10- terdicted really. But there is such a vast dif- ference between the bathing costume of tho sketch artist and clever newspaper paragrapher and the real thing that 1 wonder somotimes if ever those airy fairy Lilliun things pictured in Puck, Life acd Judge ever existed atall, or wero mevely fig- ments of the imagination. We have a big Omaha colony here aud generally have good tunss, for the bathing is magnificent, tne arrangements perfect and the morals of the Park carefully looked after by the brethren of the Methodist chureh, of which this is a greau big camp meeting center. Isaw Canon Doherty the other day iu bathing, ana he looked less the rector of Brownell hall and a canon of the Episcoval church than wouid bo possible to imngine. In fact, he had the appearance of a wall-to- do Philadelphia broker down to the shore on a holiday with wifoy and the bables. But heis getting rest and health, and as that is the chief desideratum in visiting these At lantic coast resorts, why he's to be compli mented, that's all. “f pelievo the original Rider Haggard's 'She’ must have been a very prolific crea. luru‘," said a friend to me the other day. Why ‘‘Well because her descendants are so num- erous on tho boarawslk. You can soe half a dozen originals at least, all warranted genu- ine simon-pure shes caught ia the wilds of Africa.” Not only she's but ail sorts of attractions and illusions lino Asbury Park’s promenado this summer and ho must indeed be a solitary who can feel “alone withouten any company,’’ as Chancer puts it on the boardwalk at night, But the difticulty is that we aro compelled to 0 to bed too soon in this goody goody resort and can’t enjoy tho nights and the walks as we would like'to. Oue of tho pleasurablo things about this plase s it does not have to worry itself about aud Aaamless Eden as is the case with less favored resorts, for really there aro lots of men here, who love boating, fishing and_the delights’ of carpet knight erranty which are at their disposal, "o the summer peoplo the most interest- ing of tho week’s happenings has beon the enormous cateties of fish from the banlks, the s, the sailing yacnts and also from the greut “fish pounds.” There nover wero so many wealkfish taken from the sea hero as during the weok. The sport from thoe sides of the two schooners in commission here for fishing and sailing par- ties out av_ sca was remarkably fine, aud so was it from the piors aud from the land. The enforced absence of the “moss bunkors,” smail tugs dragging fishuets, has wrought wonders in tne in- orease of fish along this shore. The boats, also known as ‘“menbadens,” used their catehes for securing oul, and for several sum- mers nearly ruined the sport here, und the business ot the fishing colony at Sea Bright, An ider may be formed of the quantity of fish running here now by citing the fact that over 500 tons of the finny creatures were taken last week from tho Bshiog pounds wittin a two-mile radius of Asbury Park, Theso were purtly sold to local dealers and the remainder sent L Fulton and other Now York warkets. ‘I'hese fishing pounds consist of immense nets strung along the coast and attached to pilings loosoly driven in the constautly swerving botlom of the sea, near shore.

During the preva- lonce of westerly winds the surf -dies downa nd the sea, with its glussy,motionloss surface, resembles & great slugeish pond, On such occasions the bathing attracts large numbers of people who do not wish to combut with the beating. crashing surf.

Omiha Girls Pade e Lowa, LEAR UAKE has beon our dwolling plibd just two woeks, and what jolly good li;l\!}a we have been having. "o are all like the girl who went to Paris and wrote home to her father: i Oh! On! Oh! Oh! Oh! Your affoctionate daughter, Manry. Woare expecting Mrs. Dowey and Mrs. Burke, with her two children, in a day or two, and as the_excitement of the day 1S the arrivai of tho Omaha train, our joy will bo complote, Tho majority of the Omaha crowd is on the camp ground, a beautiful park on the iake with a splendid beach and all the comforts for bathing and fishing. Our Omaha crowd consists of Mrs, T. C. Brunnor, Miss Georgie Brunner, Miss Laura Brunnor, Mrs, P. O, Hawes, Miss Witman, Mrs. A. B. Smith, Miss Smith, Masters Al- len and Warren Smith, Mrs. Samuel Burns, m Burns, ir, Miss Florence Mavnard, Mr, and Mrs. Garrison ana son Leshe, Miss Atkinson, MissI'ayloraud niece Miss Hover, Miss Duryea, Miss Fanny Duryea ana Mrs. Moeikle. The deys aro spent in what might be called a very lazy fashion. Our meals are served in @& large, old fashioned, breesy dining ball, and when wo hear the old hand bell, threa times a day, at the respective hours of 780, m., 12:30 p. m. and 6 p. m., the rash that is wude for the table is enough tostrike torror to the heart of tho most courageous cook. Sinco wo have been here Mario Durgea has uad o birthday., But as the day was stormy, we had to give up our intended trip to the lily beds at tho head of the lake, distauco of seven milos, and instead we took the large sail boat and went fishing. We were coue only two hours, but made a nuul of eighteen fine pickorel, Our cuthusiasm extends still furthor, and many a day you can see a little party steal- ing away from the cottage in the early dew of the moruing to try their luck before breakfast. Tho bathing 1s just us attractive, for tho lake has a fine pebbly bottom, which de- clines very gradunlly, and you cau walk out for at least 150 ffeot without over-reaching your depth. Wo hathe overy day and are all fast becoming expert switmmers. In a sociel way Clear Lake is rather quiet, for wo do not have the omni-present hops which are supposed to be tho chief attraction of summer resorts, Wo are early to bea and carly to rise, and hope 1o come back to tho ‘social life of Omaha healthy, wealthy and wise. We have had the pleasure of one romance in our littlo summer settloment. Aud that, 100, was nipped i’ the bud by the aisappear- ance of the young man for parts unknown. You might infer from this that young men are 1 the minority. But such is mnot the caso. Oh, no! Tho woods are full of them, real summer men, t00. Mr. Dodge and family of Council Bluffs are ocoupying their summer cottage ucross the lake: on what is called pont. It 18 adelightful place for picnics and we 1ntend soon to avail our- ves of the opportunity and become pio- nickers in earnest. Last cvening as the eventof tho season, we hud o jolly hay rack ride across the country. Three large loads started from the camp ground at half 7 How Dog Days In after 7 and drove about three miles into tho rural “deestricts," where ice.croam, lemonade and e were served. Of course singing was indulged in on the rond aud, indeed, I am afraid we made night hideous with our cries and fish horn accompaniaments. But we all enjoved it, and I think the:good farmers can endure a littlo discomfort for ono evening during the summer. Qur only regret is that a greator number of Omaha people canuot enjoy this delizhtful place with us. And we hope with another summer wore of thom will be able to come to Clear Lake. Mar DENMAN BURNS. TR R AND If WAS NOT PAID FOR. Nor 1s it Copted from a Home Paper Anxlous to Boom a Little Home Show. The Chicago Inter-Ocean of last month contains the following reliable endorsement of the Barnum & Bailey show, which is to exhibit in Omaba in all its eutirety Septem- ber 14: *“The democratic wigwam occupies the circus site on the lake front, but there are circuses and circuses aau other circus sites within tho limits of Chicago. Last night an audience of 14,000 peopla proclaimed tuat the bills had told the trutn, energy and enterprise had triumphed in furnishing a wounderful eutertainment. “The menagerie is certainly the largest and finest that has ever bee brought to this city. A number of clever illusions, showing syrens swinging in aerial revels, or nesthing palf hidden in immense bouaguets, give a share of interest to tne exhibit in the zoo- logical and botanical department, In the main tent the show’s the thing. Every phase of arenic art appeared to have a place on the program and have accompiished champions. The first introduced some splendid stock, in three high school menage acts by Johu O'Brien, Miss Jeanette Kiadelli and R. H.

Great preparations are being made for this vecep- tion which will ncludu Knights Tomplar, the wives, duughters, sisters and swoet- hearts of both orders as well as the local female contingent. 'Fhe hoter will be bril- linatly decorated and everything will be upon a lavish scale, commensurate with tho dig- nity of the shrine and the prominence of the men who compose the imperial council. Roports aro being daily received from tom- plos througnhout this country and Canada asking for headquarters assignments and lodging accommodations, From these re- ports it is safo to preaict thay there will be quite 2,000 Shriners in the city which in ad- aition to the Kunights Templar who wili stop here enroute willgive Omahathe appearance of acity in the hands of some foreign mili- tary organization. At a called meeting of Tangler templo the other evening it was decided that the members of Tanzier shrula attend Ringhng Bros.” show in & body Monday night in honor of the owners of the tented exhibition who are all Shriners. The Ringlings will re- fou of the seats for the Shrinors, who will appear in dress suits and fozs, tho regalia of the order. As the members of the local temple are enthusiastic, it is safe to say that u large crowd of nobles will assist in booming Ringling Bros." Monday night. The Ringhngs, not to be outdoue by tho local temole, have mado arrangemeuts to ship in their herd of camels for tho vparade ou Monday evening, August 15, and after the parade will be shipped to some place in Wisconsin.

Chicago Knignts -Templar will be repro- sonted at tho twonty-ftth triennial conclave to be held at Denvor August 9 to 13. S. O, Spring of Peoria, the grand commander of the filinois grand’ commandery. has been ac- tively at work for months preparing for tho devartura. 1t is estimatod that5,000 Knights will go from Illinois alone, the extremely low rates which have been luaugurated by the Santa Fo uaving a_tondency to attract many outsidors. The grand commavder of Ilinois will_bo escorted by Peoria commandery No. 3, aund the route will be over the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy by way of this city, where tho visiting Knights will bo enter- tained. Returning the Illinois commanaery will stop at Kansas City. The passenger rato war ovor Denvor busi- ness is likely to take many Sir Knights from Oumaha, who, early in the season,decided not to go, and already the railroads aro schoming as 1o how to get sleoping cars aud diners sufficient to take care of the crowds. The action of the Santa Fe in making a $12 rave from Chicago means, of course, the same rato bere and that’s so'cheap tuat hunareds of people will ayail themselves of tho oppor- tunity tosee what Denver.can do toward en- tortaining the finest body of men in the country. Knights of Pythias, A committea composed of Hoa. Durrelle F, Gledden of Detroit, Dr. R. L. C. White of Nasnville, Tenn., Hons. W. A. Radcliffe of St. Louis, Mo., Egbert E. French of Omaa, Neb., and Walter B. Richie of Lima, O, were 1n session at Lima last week, working upon the revision of the Knights of Pythias ritual to be introduced in the supremo lodgo at 1ts next .session. The work of revising the ritual has been completea and the com- mittee accepted an invitation from Mr. Richie to put the work of the revision upon the floor of the Lima lodge to test 1ts merits They are highly pieased with it, and all do- clared themselves agrecably surprised with the material 1n Lima lodge. Thursday evening the committee was joined by Supreme Representatives A.. B, Butterflela of Cincinnati, Hon. John (. Burns of Mansfleld, General W. D. Kennedy of Chicago, and Hon. George B. Shaw, su- preme chancellor of the world, and on Fri- day the party left for the lakes on a fow days’ outing as the guests of Mr. Richie. Mr. White is the press rooresentative of the party and a very pleasant geutleman to meot. The entire party is a jolly lot of gen- tlemen, who have cnjoyed their Visit to Lima nugely, says *he Lima Daily Pimes. Nothing will be suid of the ritualistic re- vision until 1t_has beon presentod to the su- premo lodge for consideration, The indications are that the encampment of the Uniform Rank at Kansas City this year, August 22, will outstrip any masting held in the past, and as o a civie body in upiform will eclipse anvthing ever held in this country. General Carnahian, on the oc- casion of his first visit to Kunsas City to talic over the matter of holding the encamp- ment v the samo time as the session of the supreme lodge, stated that there would be from 1o 20,000 uuformed knights at tho encawpment, $Thatstatement was made a year and a half ago, and while the genca- al’s army of siv_kuights are scattered into every statoand territory and the provincos of Canada, it seems he know his men und their willingness and desire to assemblo on occa- slons of this kind, for advises received up to this ime by the local ofticers in charge indicate that there will really be more uni- formed men in Kansas City than Geuersl Carnaha- avticipated when the encampmont was first located. They are going by brigades, iments and divisions. From Oregon, Klorida, Maine, Manitoba, and far distances from Kansas City, they are making as extensivo preparations to be i the city by the Kaw s the commands nearer by.” All doubt has veen removed, if any ever existed, as to this being the greatest gathering of any civic or- ganization in the country. Tho question now 13, or rather will be in the minds of all visit- ors, and thoso contemplating attending the encampment, the ability of Kansas City to carn for and properly entertain this great army and the thourands of others who will uccompany them. Cawmp facilities will be provided for 15,000 peoplo. The committee on entertainment are canvassing the city as to hotel accom- s, boarding bouses and private fum- accommodations, and will ba able 10 locate visitors 1mmeaiately on urrival, and at places and prices Lo suit thelr taste, The encampment grounds sre centrally lo- cated to the business portion of the eity. The prize drill grounds, at base ball park, are accessiblo to the camp ground, and can be reached by divisions without expeuse of car fare. In fact, everything is being brought into perfection as rapialy as possible, and oy the time the visitors arrive thero will be nothing left undone for their comfort and pleasuro that can be dovised on the part of the loval committaes and citizeus of Kansas City, Mars lodge No. 130 Kuighis of Pythias held its regular meeting of the evening of the 27th with Vice Chancellor Wood in the chair, Mars lodge did not work any of the dogrees at its last meetiog.
