COMING - BACK TO- TOWN Boclety Favorites Turn Their Steps Toward ' Their Own Roof Trees. QUIETNESS STILLREIGNS IN SWELL CIRCLES Miss Brown's Protty Ralnbow Tea—diss Colpetzer Gives a Mid-Angust Dan Purty—The Hans-Babeock ~About O People. In honor of the Capitol Hill Tennis club Miss Margaret Brown, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Charles H. Brown, 'I'wenty-second streot and Capitol avenue, gave a beautitully appointed rainbow tea Thursday evening which brought together a number of young peopla who 1n o few years will be the real lln,l and queens of the haut monde. In conformity with the central idea there were saven tables, the number of colors in the rainbow, which we as children remembered by the meaningless wora *‘vibgyor.” The table coverings were all white but across the snowy surface were broad bands of ribbon and flowers repreventing the seven colors of the bow. [Each table was thoroughly dis. tinotiye and the cffect was thoroughly havp; The toa was progressive, the young gentle- men showing their ability by marching up- ward, eight courses being necessary to bring the men around to the ladies whom they nad escorted iuto the dinner. Iu keeping with the thovght the courses were also served in colors, purpie grapes, bouillon in dark blue cups, fish on green piates, ete, In connection with the tea, there was & pretty idea used in selecting partners for the dainty affair. At Miss Brown’s school, Christiun Colloge, Columbia, Mo., the girls are compelled to wear a uniform consisting of & black gown and sunbonnots, much after the style of the Normandie caps seen in old prints. Upon these sunbonnets ribbons are worn _distinguishing the sentors from the Juniors and low ciass girls. Miss Brown had a number of small sunbonnets niade for dis- tribution among tho guests and upon these were fastened diffevent colored ribbons, corresponding to the colors on the small tables which were arranged to scat two peoplo. With this arrangement it was easy to find whom your partuer was and made great deal of nmusement for the guests, After tho dinner the guests adjourned to the magnificent lawn of Mr. Brown, which was vrotiily illuminated with lanterns, where they danced and made merry. The guests were: Larimoro Denise, Jos Morsman, Edgar Morsman, Scouwt Brown, Paul Ludington, Howard Kennedy, jr.. Thorpe MeKell,’ Mary Buck, Wynn Kon- nedy, Mae Sargent, Georgie Lindsey, Mar- arot Cook, Margaret McKell. - Mrs. Brown assistod her daughter in entertaining, Poople Near Doath's Door, ay afternoon five young ladies oamo uear losing their lives in tho surf off Avery beach, says the South Haven (Mich.) Sontinel of August 15, They were out on the second bar whon the water suddenly rose some fifteen or oighteen inches, which with tho undertow rendered it impossible for them to get to shore or to stand.

The young ladies were very much oxhausted and their escape from death was one of those things difficuit to explain. aaditional particulars sinco the above was in type the foliowing has been furnished: "I'here wero ten in the party of bathers, three gentlemen and seven young ladies. While on the bar they wero drifted unconsciously into deep water and cries for help came from Harry and Lou Hobbie, Jessie Arensberg and Katie Franklin. The first two were placed in safevy on the bar by their father, C. Hobbie, who then put out for Katie Franklin and took hor to shore. Rae Hob- io resoued Miss Arensburg as sho was going down for the third time and put her also on the bar. G. C. Hobbie then went to the outer bar and with his son Kae proceeded to the work of gotting tho five girls und the boy toshore, Harry Hobbie swam to shore ail right. Lou gave out within fifteen feet of shore but was helped out by those on the beach. Rae took Callie Mason and swam with her to safety. This left Mr. Hobbie and threo girls on the bar. Mavel Furman soon drifted out of reach, but was brought back to the bar, and theo they kept together as best they could untiltaken into the shore by the life-saving crew.

He built himself a small house on the island and here he lived for many yoars, and if solitude and the aforesaid contemplation availed any- thing he undoubtedly became a very good man, but it were related that he had wealth secréted ia his house, snd one night he was wurdered. Whether his murderers were re- paid or not history does not say, but long after there was fou:d 200 Mexican dollars, and it is currently reported that at the witching hour of 12 o'clock his ghost wanders around the island and ocounts over his still undiscovered buried wealth of dollars, ana it is only & question of time when “Wilson’s buried money’ will be the same to this country as Captan Kidd’s 1s to the Hudson river, Mail time causes, among the Omaha con- tingent, quite a commotion, aud after lotters are read it's “Have you s Bre!’ and the well worn condition of those received testify that they are thoroughly read.

Dilforbough, York, Neb., says: “The other day I came' home and found my litule down with cholera morbus, my wife scared, not knowing what todo.

Military Authori osting Experiments Wit For the past year numerous tests and experiments have been made in Ger many with the Scotch collie dogs for war purposes.especially during times of wur, and iv has been found vhat this dog is the best and most available among the various breeds of dogs, and from now on, \ according tothe St l.uulnl‘unl Dispateh, trained collies will be added to the standing armies of Germany und France, The services to which the Scotch collies will be trained are numerous. They will serve as messengers for carrying dis- patches and important communications to those army divisions stationed in the immediate vicinity of the enemy. Dur- ing the progress of a fight, whore the troops huppen to be seattered overa vast area of territory, they will be used for carrying ammunition to the various di- visions. They are furthermore trained for reconnoiiering and for hunting up the wounded and carrying them on am bulances, especially constructed for that purpose, 1o the field hospitals. For the Making Inter- olltes. i and the tires ars cov latter purposes these dogs are almost in- vnluflh[le The Scotch collie’s bump of locality seems to be more strongly developed than that of other canines. Besides this the dog is quiet, faithful and unus- ually intelligent. For reconnoitering purposes the dogs aro trained to run ahead of a division of soldiers, search territory closely and announce sus pi umstandes by standing still 1n their tracks. Another field for his ity is outpost duty. In this case the dog 1s trained to scent the approach of strangers and to return at once to his master to announce this fact to him. All this must be dono very quietly, of course, 80 as not to disturb the eneiny. As messengers dogs do better serv than tho best bic torial obstacles do not exist for them in the samg degree as they do for the When doing duty as u mes- he dog wenr collar around , to which i , in which the dispatehes are con- The collar is numbere s also the nameof the army di to which the dog is dewailed. In war times these namos i i cipher, so that t any the wiser as to the location of the division in question, to which the dog belongs, should the dog fall into his hands. Some of the best and strongest dogs are detailed to the Red Cross division of the army, where they do valuable sorv- ize in hunting up the wounded in tim- bered and valley regions, wheve they ure likely to escape the oyo of man, ¢ peciully after dark. When the dog dis- covers a wounded soldier he places his two forepaws on the body of the man and barks until assistance arrives, . With this is combined the ambulance service. Small, but well built wagons, which can carry two men, ave easily drawn by a good strong collio, Theso ambulances are low, have good springs d with rubber. One of these wagons, with two attend- ants and a dog, can do twice as much field work as has herewofore been done by two IRod Cross men with a litter, This has beon demonstrated during the spring maneuvers.
