L NEW FORM OF LUNCHEONS Bomething Which Prospeotive Brides Will Bo Particnlarly Interested In. SOCIETY COMMENCES THE WHIRL AGAIN Protty Wodding at the First Congrega- | tional Church—Small and Select Af~ falrs that Mave Occurred Durlug the Weok, #Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one.” | Fashion has made it the proper thing to| fnvite the betrothed couple, and as many of their f:lends as your dining table will accommo. to breakfast, lunch, dine and wine, or sup with you. The rather formidable formality of a dinner | party Is least amenable to variation, but at| least there at a dinner, and that koeps the any rate from complete boredom. " But the luncheon that the girl friend of the bride-elect turn jnto phonographi Kinetoscople melees of fun and fine feathers | really offers a opportunity for pretty | Invention.

Pale green s an exquisite shade, but oh, | please do not havo anything in g een at an engagement luncheon save the maidenhair fern. Groen is for jealously, se2? If you do, you will not allow the bride-elect to seo it. Thus, for the luncheon that was gotten up the other day for a Murry Hill flance, th flowers were selected, not only for their beauty, but for thelr poetic language. Forget-me-nots, which mean truz love, were the principal blosscms, the cover laid for the lovely blonde guest of honor being literally embedded in the delicate blooms. For each of the other girl guests, there was a nosegay of blossoms selected with es- | pecial regard for their lptness to the maiden’s relations with the spry little god of love. There were white daisies for the “Innocence’ of the youngest bud of them all; scarlet fuschias for the “good taste’ of another; hawthorne for “hope;” the exquisite little cluster of tiny vellow-white leaves of the lettuce heart and a bit of lady's slipper for the capricious beauty and cold-hearted ness of tho oldest debutante among them; and so on. There is room for unlimited changes to be rung on this idea, and the flower language makes a capital subject for chatter in that silent and boresome first few minutes of any formal meal. A fleur-de-lis luncheon is a pretty compli- ment to one “born in the purple, born to joy end ploasure,’ as Longfellow puts it The table is chaped like the royal Louis VII badge, and is laid with white, with a va- lence of gold fleur-de-lis figures on a white ground. (An ordinary cloth cannot be spread over these odd-shaped tables.) Another oharming idea for & luncheon to one who has been a bit of a flirt is to uso a fan-shaped table. The guests sit on the presenting the top of the fan. The are made by ribbons of delicate tint and harmonizing shades, ending in ona largs bow upon a standard representing the moei- ing point of the sticks. The space under the ribbons is turned into a bed of moss and ferns, and thrust into this bank are long-stemmed American beauty roses, that peop through the ribbons to nod fragrantly at the other beauties on the opposite side of the tabl As Ben Johnson says: “The end is to have two made one In will and in affection. are men wemen cholc The handsome, carved din- sminiously ban- two tables | The apices imme its up t shape under an Migs Dewey will usher in the round of soclal pleasures Monday with a luncheon at 1:30 p. m. at the Paxton.

Miss Coon gives a card party for Miss Paul of Hastings. In the after- noon Mrs. Truman Buck will formally pre- sent her daughter, Miss Mary Buck, to the 400 through the medium of a reception from 3 to 6. Thursday we will all eat turkey, God willing and_the price for the bird is forthcom- ing, and those who cannot eat turkey will content themselves with chicken. Friday Miss Margaret Brown gives a lunch- eon for Miss Buck at 1:30 p. m. While on Saturday Mrs. Ringwalt will launch her pretty daughter upon the soctal sea. Chrysanthemum Wedding.

The contractor has agreed to let the club occupy the basement and first floors on the 1st of December, and it is thought that the structure will be completed by the I5th of next month, The formal open- Ing and public reception will probably cceur on New Year's day. This is one of the finest club houses in the western country, and will more than favora- | bly compare with those in eastern 'cities. | It 1s not only a credit to the push and entor- | prize of the members and officers of the club, but it {s an ornament to the city JThe project of buikiing the new club house was developad about three years ago, and the | foundation work was begun a year ago last May. The financial panic happened about | that time, and owing to a scarcity of ready ing a fine roof garden during the heated days and nights of summer. In the north end of the third story is the sleeping and Dbathing quarters of the employes of the club. The walk and yard surrounding the club house are made of slagolithie composition, and on each side of the main entrance will be beds of brilliant flowers in season. The members of the club are somewhat anxious assured them floor on the 1 t they can occupy the first f the coming month The Omalg, #hib was organized about fit- teen years ago. The membership Is over 280, with a limit of 500. The initiation fee is $100 with annualsdyes cf $60 for resident mem- bers and $30 for ‘nonresidents. The initiation will probably be raised to $200 and many new applicativhslwill likely be recelved. Thuraton Rifie ® Adjutant General Gage and Colonel Bratt, commanding First regiment of Nebraska Na- tional Guards, were in the city last Wednes- day on business.

Invitations are out announoing the regular monthly company full-dress inspection and hop for Monday evening, December 3.

Several friends and a number of the Ladies’ auxiliary were present last Monday evening and viewed the ma- neuvers of the company, under command of Lieutenant Hayward. The invitations announcing the anniver- y ball for December 17 have been recalled it having be:n decided at a recent compaiy meetiag to postpone the party until a later date, and instead the boys in blue will honor their first anniversary as National guards- men with an elaborate banquet, which is o get into Juilr new quaiters but the con- | traetors, L Bagsett & Percival, have very which capital the work was delayed until last No- vembzr, when money enough was raised to complete and cover up the sub-structure.

Presi- dent Thomas Swobe, Vice Presdent Luther Drake, Treasurer Frank Murphy, Dircetor Henry W. Yates and other members have taken a great interest in the building, and although all are busy men, they find time to frequently inspect the work and see that the designs and plans are carried out.

The ground on which the building ix locuted cost $28,000, the building and furniture cost about $82,000. The' present officers of the club are: Thomas Swobe, president; Luther Drake, vice presi- dent; Frank Murphy, treasurer; D. J. 0'Dona- hue, secretary; Henry Yates, Guy C. Barton, Frank Murphy, W. V.

Mr. Grau will give it several productions at the Motropolitan opera house in New York this winter, and it is in high favor with the English. The Bayreuth devotces who cons [ stantly assure us that the new school of fan music is ephemeral find it diffienlt to explain the universal popularity of Mascagni and Leoncavallo. Yet they find mueh com- fort in the fact that the author of “‘Caval- lerla Rusticana’ has brought forth no fitting successor to that famous opera. After seve eral years of popularity the woes of Santuzza aro now slightly on the wane, and Mascagni | has apparently given place to Leoncavallo, Miss Lillian Russell is much disappointed ovor the failure of ““The Queen of Brillants.™ She says, “We have to endure certain pris vations for tho sake of our voices that peopla in other spheres of life would not counte na And when the artist has struggled to hold the fort until capitulation is compul= sory and ghe is obliged to succumb, the dis appointment of her audience is the singer's greatest grief. Unkind remarks are often made, but if the public would only consider the case they might be charitable and for- giving. An unpopular opera, a sudden strain of the voice, an over-exertion or two great an effort to please—and the whole sum and sub- | stanco of a singer's ambition may be gone before she can realize it.”" A plea thus reas- | onably and eloquently expressed must be ac- ¢copted.
