Plans are rapidly maturing and by another week Omaba will again be a soclety town. Al- ready thero is a tinge of autumn in the air, and tho storm of the last day or two has ro- minded thousands that it is nearly time to go back to the comforts and old-fashioned rou- § tine of home life, which may not boso gay And exciting as A summer in tho mountains or by the soashore, but aftor all are, i tho long run, the most. satisfying and decidedly more economical. An Omnha ', Miss Ruth Kimball, who muy with ontire propriety b claimed by Omaha, having ac- quired 1 the High school of this city the foundation for hor subsequent carecr, as tho ‘Washington correspondent of the St. Paul Globe, has attained tho heights and 1s now: ono of the rocognized newspaper women of the countr, New York Truth, in speaking of Miss Kimbull, says: ““Women have followed man into nearly all pursuits. They have gone upon the battio- tield and penetrated the black forest of Af- riea,of whose horrors Stanley has so graphic- ally told. But before Miss Kimball, nono had entered the correspondents’ gallery of tho national capitol, Naturally thero wis & great curiosity to see this avant courier of her sex, and speculnatfon was rife. Was she liko the typical champion of woman's righ st 1t was feared 5o, and S0 as they thought of such a possibility the thinkers gronned. And the more they thought the more convinced they became thut 1t could be no other. But when on one afterncon of lust winter there came into tho sacred precincts of tho gailery a young woman scarce past the borderland of girlhood, tall, eraceful to a degree, with a clear, frank fac8 and a refinement of manner that stamped her well bred, and whose on- graved card bore tho inscription: ‘Ruth Kimball, St. Paul Globe,’ there was a sud- den dustruction of vreconceived ideas and general gratification sprang up in theirstead, “Speculation then turned to the quality of her work and_the investigation was equally surprising. There was some littlo trouble over her formal admission to the eallery, owing to the want of a precedent, but that was passed and thereaftor all was well. There were many special articles written about her of a very complimentary charac- ter. They would have turned the head of many, but it didn’t disturb the equilibrium of ber head a hair's breadth. She was suc- cesstul, but that did not surprise hor. She had felt she would be, and her former suc- cesses on the local staff of the Globe, and grlor work on other newspapers, had given er reason for confidence. Sho rapidly ac- qnired a valuable acquaintance and her tele- graphic news as well as her letter corres- pondence was nccurate, frosh aud exceed- ngly well prepared. *'She wields a graceful pen and the orit- ical editors of many publications willingly testify to the cloverness of her verses, many Before com- 1ng to Washington she did rezular reportor- ial work and dramatic criticism for the Globe. In the discharge of her duties she has brushed a great deul with the world, but through it oll she has presorved intact the intrinsic charm of true womanhood, and therein proved false the belief of many that to enter the vocations thus far occupied by man almost alone necessitates divorce from all, or at least from something thatis good nd.beautitul in her sex.” " A Platform Pa-y Soclally the event among the younger society people was the platform party given by Miss Hattie Cady in honor of Miss Palmer, who 1s the guest of Miss Sue Col- petzer, Thursday evening, A pavilion had been erected for the occasion on the east side of the residence, somewhat raised above ground, the floor of which was canvassed for dancing, Myriads of Japanese lanterns were nung’ about the improvised ball room which with the headlights gave an artistic air to the pretty scene, The night was per- fect, o real fall evening, 1t being just cool enough for dancing, and the young people, who bave dominated soclety in’ the absence of their elaers, grestly enjoyed the oppor- tunity to dance.

Thero is not adoubt but what **Frisco” is the spot on this coast, and I must say that for & genorat gond time all around this city leads i everything. But with all the sight seeing and’ grand rushing around all day and a good part of the night, an Omaha face will cause a great tumult of joy in my heart and no sight is so- welcome as a fawmiiiar home fac 1 always road over tue list of arrivals ~ the first thing in the morning, while waiting . between .courses av breakfast. I might say here, by ‘way of parenthesis, that one has to wait just as long as we do 10 a certain Hrst class res- taurant in Omaha bofors one gets an_entire meal. I heard the other day of a man who died from starvation during a long wait, and he was so emaciated—poor man-—that the combined weight of clothes and man did not excoed thirty pounds. You can fuily under- stand the awfulness of that statement when I tell you he brougnt down the scales to 185 pounds when he entered that restaurant. The other morning 1 picked up u Chronicle and saw Lhe name of ono of our Omaha_railg road officials registered at the Palace hotel, aiso the names of his wife and daughter, who is one of Omaha's mosy brilliant socievy irls, Bho tell you the truth, angl just betwaen ourselves, 1 was very much surprised to see " a ljin town same tell you that d husbands, hotel these dear genial old lnlfi'tn who are the very persontficatfon of propriety at home, seein to bo pos-&x; d by some little fmp, in this bracing air ddv here, that makes them do many peculiar things. 1 mignt tell wany fduny tales, but it would be dreadfully mean and besides I don’t want to be cut rightod left woen I return home.

The Shriner ure still tired atter their efforts to properly entertain their brethren, while the Knights have not yet ro- covered from their visir to Donver.

The members are enthusiastie, alert, and mean to give the organization a nicher standiog than ever in the westera country. Mystic Shrine Nows, From all sections of the country Potentate Henry C. Akin of Tangier tomple 1s receiv- ing warm words of congratulation for the excollent manner in which the local temple entertained the imperial council and visiting Shriners, ana too much cannot be suid iu praise of Colonel Akin's efforts and those associated with him on the various commit- tees. . [t is vory much doubted 1f there was ever & more harmonious body than the execu- tive committee which had charge of the arrangements. They were actuated by a common purpose, tho largest and happiest measure of entertainment, nmited only by time. Whatever tended to meet tho desiro of the committee was doune and the result is & recognition of Omahin’s ability to entertain large bodies successfully. ‘There is a great doal of lateresting matter that might be written in regard to the cold reception accorded the committee of ways and means by the citizens of Omaha. They had been drained to tue last dreg, seemingly, by © Mothodist —general —conference, a military eucampment - fiasco and by the people's party, “‘ana ‘they didu’t propose to contribute 1 cent towiard the en- tertainment of an organization which might have 500 visitors in Omahba, surely not more than 1,500. But the committee was not to be dissuaaed from its purpose and what the cltizens lacked 1n_enterprise the members of Tangier made up. The aftermath of the meetiog 15 apparent and while it cost nearly £10,000 to properly entertamn tho visiting Shriners and their wives, there is quite enough in sight to pay all bills and probably leave a littlo balance in Tangier's treasury. And this is due to the business men who were associated with Potentate Akin. While praiso is due every individual member of tho various committees, particular commendation is due John 'I. Clarke, T. K. Sudborough, Frank Wil , James France, L. M. Rneem, H. C.
