LEIEARIN(} Tilli LENTEN REST Foolety Shows a Nanoy Hanks Gait During the Past Weok, PRETTY DANCING PARTY FOR MISS TURNER Pleasure to the Socinl L ther Debutante Launened Into the Gay World— Dolngs of & Minor Nature, Encortalnments that Gnve " — Al 1€ it is the pace that kills, then some of the more fragile membecs of the beau monde will have to stop a bit in their society elso will the sick room claim a few victims before the dawn of Ash Wednes- duy. The paceset by the younger crowd hus been unprecedented, and the grand round of functions includes every known torm of entersainment. ‘The week past has been filled with events of a social nature and there 1s no apparent diminution in the number of affairs to come. ‘Lhe debutantes are commencing toshow the of the mad rush just a little, ana Lent will be wel- comed with rejoicing, for it will bring a wodicum of rest in its train at least. earce An Tnterested Obsérver contributes the tollowing to the society columns of ‘Ui BEe: If Mrs, Peattie in her recent criticism of Omaha society entitled * Lions,” mtendet to arou: ness of the so-called social the indignation and disgust of all t versant with tho subjoct, sho has accom- plished its purpose, not owing to the soundness of her criticism, but to its gross injustice and palpable misrcpresentation of facts. It is a n who have re lion as w )se con- tter of wonderment to m son 1o suppose that they are in society from what source Mrs. Peattie has obtained her information. Where in the name of society she has observed these glaring abuses of common conventionality We must presume one of two things; either Mrs. Peattio in her zeal for criticism has knocked at the vrrong door, and, thinking sho was writing up society, has, in fact, come in contact with the medioerity, or, on tho other hand, charity would suggest that she has sirply been cruelly deceived and misinformed on the subject she attempts to treat, We will proceed on this supposition. There 1 110 doubt that a great deal may be said in criticism of London and New York sociel and the sanio might be applied to a certain extent to Omalia socicty, or rather 1o o few individuals composing it, but Mrs, Peattie 1s fur too severe in her criticisms and wo general in her terms, as well as absolutely mistaken in most of her statements. Re- garding the success of Omaha entertain- ments this scason, of course I don't know what ‘‘one hears whispered everywhere,” but Ido know that mostof the parties this season huve been very snccessful and very enjoyable in ever pect, ard if there has been any lack of attention on the purt of the men it may be attributed to the fact that comparatively few of them are going out this winter, and not that they arein any way derelict in their social duties when present at entertainments, and as for the noticeable feature that Mrs. Peattie suggests of the men “'standing around in stupid groups dis- cussing the churms of the young ladies,” the picture is too absurd for discussion, and is absolutely without fact as being in any way characieristic as a custom of Omaha's society men, 1 really aporeciate Mrs. Peattie’s charity 1 her gentle handling of the bolder sex, but the “fond mammas” and the “young girls so shamelessly thrust in the matrimonial mar- ket.” Where! on where did this remarka- ble writer get her ideas on this subject? From the Figaro or the Kansas City Sunaay Sun? I believe that is about on a par with the oxpression of this class of papers in their wild ravings against society and on kindred subjects. If the inuocont enjoyment of a young girl in attending dancing parties, receptions, af- ternoon teas, and in social intercourse with her friends, especially in the exuberance of hor first season out, is to be construed into the “putting up of a young girl iuto the matrimonial market,” I have not a word to say in contradiction to such a proposition; moreuver, and I know whereof I speak, 1t is not the impression or understanding of the young men of Omaha socioty that a young ‘womaa's coming out is an expression of her willingness to be married. The sugeestion i8 absurd and is a cruel injustice and refice- sion upon the young women as well as the mothers constituting Omaha society. Now on the subject of the Yale concert and ball, supposiug this affair w made a social event and a successrul one, it was the only entertainment of the kind this season, forthe reason that our extravagant society goers in their reckless expenditure of money for frivolities did not feel able to support o social organization of any kind during the existing hard times. The Yale concert did dot take out of towna doliar more, if as much, as the companies that gave their pe formances at Boyd’s theater. Many of them [ am sure, not as worthy or commendable as this concert. And another thing, Mrs, Peattic should remember that all this dem- enstration and the paizs expended by tho Yale men_of Omaha was not simply for the purpose of entertaining these **boys,” as she is pleased to term thew, but to show, in a tangible form, their high estecm and honor for their alma water, dear old Yal If this is objectionable to the lady's sense of pro- priety we are extremely socry that her invi- tation to the ball fuiled to reach its destina- tion. The gross mis aguinst sociely ny statements in this tirade nd the bitter denun ion of every ono connected with it cannot fail 1o place the writer in the position before the public of a discontented ' outsider, who, rticipating in none of tho enjoyments of ioty, has gladly seized the opportunity to il at those more favored by accepling as wue any information which has come to hand und “by maliciously applying to the whole of socicty the shorteomings and fail- ings of tho fou Miss Dishup's Kenslugton, A unique idea was successfully carried out Weanesday afternoon at the kensington given by Miss Bishop at her home 1n honor of hor sister, Mrs. Edward Peck. Over whirty books were vepresented in different parts of the handsome rooms by articles placed 80 as to form in an enigmatical way the name of some book, and the task im- posed on the guests was ¢o guess what they meant. Many of the names were very cleverly concealed, but Mrs. Will Redick was bright enough to untangle tho most names, for which she received a bunch of beautiful roses, while Miss RReeso won the booby prize, o bunch of puper flowers.
