FOR THE PLAIN DEBUTANTE Bocioty Celebrates the Yuletide in Gift Giving, Not in Functions, VISIT OF COLLEGE CLUES SAVES THE WEEK Dancing at Happy Hollow, & Tea at Mrs. Cotpet Mra. Drako Gives a Danes ing Party for Her Danghtor— Doings of the swells, s Let the homely girl, who Is just beginning ber first season, make up her mind early in | the winter as to what “set” she means to be | in. There is no place so large or so small that people of like tastes tend to congregat compa Everywhere one the fast set, and the serfous set, the musical, the literary, the religious, and the athletic sets; and, however she may make up her mind before hand to keep clear of clique: ®h0 Is sure to find, or later, that she bus, by natural afinity, selected her special friends from some one of these sets, To the ordinary looking debutante, who is fall of health and high spirits, and eager for pleasure—as, thank heaven, the average glrl Is—the greatest temptation of all Is to Join the fast set; the set whose only pursuit and interest is plegsure, and, therefore, seem to her ignorant little eyes to have the best time of any of them. She sees mamma shake her head when the names of some of the leaders in that set are mentioned, bui when she meets them her- gelf they scem (o her to be only more than usually joily and kind and not at all differ- ent in behavior from girls whom mamma ap- proves of, and the men of that sct are livelier and dance well and say such admiring things to her that she jumps to the conclusion that the fast set are gite as nice as anybody, and much more amusing. After a while she hears them say, and sees them do. some littlo thing that shocks her Tather, but they are #0 good tempered and cheerful about it that she hesitates to take offen: it, and day by day she sces and hears, and gradually grows accustomed to things that would have shocked her terribly at first, had she known them all at once Day by day she grows to “not mind” coarse Jokes and vulgar deeds, and from thinking they are no harm she simply passes Into imitating their behavior; the decline in her delicacy and modesty being so gradual that she does not percelve how far she has gone. k each to " is €ure to find yoner Another set that the wise, sweet minded young debutante will keep out of is the Idle get, who find their only amusements in the feeblest of novels acd the Saturday mati- nees. Who fill their empty hours with furlous admiration of actors and singers, who know and care nothing for such addle- pated admire This is the set that are always knocking about the streets, taking hours for the smallest bit of shopping, dwell: ing forever upon idle gossip, priding them- selves upon their slang, and spoiling their digestions with a continued diet of sweets. Every girl beginning her first season should take stock of herself carefully. A pretty girl, or a rich girl, or a witty girl, is likely to be much in demand; but the girl who is not pretty has a somewhat harder task be- fore her to make her season pleasant and successful, For one thing, she should realize that while beautiful debutantes can afford to be a little careless in dress and still look ate tractive, it behooves her to be always a very pink of perfection in all matters of the toilet, since there is a certain beauty and charm in absoluto neatness which every one unconsciously feels. Her hair should always be beautifully done, her nalls perfectly mani- cured, and every pin, pleat ard ribbon ex- actly in place. A clever, witty girl finds most things plain sailing, but a girl without such gifts can eharm almost as much with sweet temper and careful courtesy, and cheerful willingness to be of use to other people. The rich girl, too, can, without much dif- culty, command a following, but the poor girl has a harder time. Yet the poor girl Who shows no envy, who takes her depriva- tions cheerfully, is not always standing upon her dignity, and knows the art of being & charming guest and accepting gracefully and gratefully many favors she cannot re- turn, 1s in a fair way to do away with many of the disadvantages of circumstance. This sort of girl never places herself in rivalry With those better off than herself in matters of expense. She makes no attempt to iml- tate with cotton velvets and cheap furs, or imitation jewels, the beauties of the toilets of the richer girls. She makes herself con- tent with the single daintiness within her means, and when she entertains, makes her hospitable good will and merriment take the Pplaco of costly dishes or expensive flowers. The signs are now manifest that woman in ber onward march has stormed the last citadel of man and taken to the high hat. The high hat, hitherto sacredly reserved for men, has ceased to be the distinguishing characteristic of their attire. The women's crush hats are different in shape from those of the men. The latter e bell-crowned, and it is understood that the correct thing is that they should be made of black silk. They are lined with black satin. They are not so heavy as the old_crush hats. Gayer still s the woman’s crush hat. It is made of heavy ribbed silk, but it Is lined on the inside with white satin, and on some @ rosetto Is placed upon the outside. Most of the women's opera hats incline inward instead of being bell crowned, but some oth- ers are low crowned. The Omaba Camera Club, The casual observer passing 1312 Farnam street will notice a modest and unpreten- tious sign reading “The Omaha Camera Club," and will, perhaps, at once dismiss tho subject from his thoughts. But to one interested in amateur photography the let- ters stand out boldly and become impressed upon his mind so strongly that he fs prompted to make an investigation, Ho as cends the stairs and finds himself among an active organization of amageur photographers styled “The Omaha Camera Club,” This as- soclation, although comparatively young, has entered the fleld of amatenr work with an earnestness and fixedness of purpose which Insures its position among the most promi- nent photographie clul Starting in Febru- ary, 1894, with a small band of hardy ama- teurs, it has rapidly increased in nd strength until fifty hard and earnest workers are now enrolled. Magnificent rooms have been secured at the above number, occupying the whole of the second floor, ‘the general plan beng from south to north, The most pleasant is the reception room, 20x18 feet, where can be seen displayed upon the four walls the work of the club, comprizing every subject imagin- able, from the fine, dclicata lines of the par- trait to the artistic landscape. In this room are held the meetings of the club, as well as lantern exhibitions, entertainments, | ete. The chairs and settees are of eane and wicker work, adding greatly to the tout en- semble of the apartments, A large Persian Tug nearly covers the floor, the bare spaces being stained cherry color. In the center stands a cloth top table eight feet long, scat- tered upon which are the latest numbers of various photographlc magazines, the soclety subscribing for “nearly everything of im- portance in this class of literature, The large bay windows are ornamented with lace curtains and the large areh on the north is draped with graceful portieres. A more cosy and homelike room could bardly be desired. That it is appreciated is attested by the prescnce at all hours of the day and late at night of members search- ing for hidden facts in some particular branch of photographic work. On the west of the reception room is the lbrary, 12x15 feet, which Is also used as the fecretary's room. KFrom here emanate the notices reminding members of thelr Obligations to the association, the fnitia- tion fee being $2, and the dues §1 per mooth, The floor is covered with a Persfan rug, in harmony — with the reception room. It contains the book cases, with bound vol- umes of works ou photography, a writing fable, and a retouching desk. The impres. slon conveyed by a gllmpse into this apart- ment is that the place Is cosy, contalns just enough to meet all requirements, and at the Same time & crowded appearsuce is avoided. On leaving the main room toward the BDorth one passes under & large arch draped soclety do not | other's | Messrs, W. J. with porticres, and finds himselt in a small hall, 6x10 feet. On the right of this fs the dark room, 10 feet square, containing the fixing box, washing hox, developing trays, #ink, etc.. etc., four persons easily working here at the same time. The light is obtained by running a gas pipe through the partl. tion, controlling same by thumb-screw on the Inside, On the Teft of the hall is a small room containing marble topped wash basin, look- ing glass, closet, ete. This Is used as a dressing room, and can also be darkened for the purpose of loading plate holders. After entering the hall one passes into the operating room, 20x40 feet. The sky- light faces the north, and measures 15x20 feet, with a side light four fect high. Al the lights are controlled by curtains, thus making it possible to obtain any sort of lighting desire The club owns a fine por- tralt camera 11x14 inches, with rapld Volt- lander lens, and has an abundant supply of backgrounds, posing chairs, couch, screens, and other accessorics, and new features and facilities are being constantly added, the alm being to make the apparatus both com- plete and scientific. lo the east of this room are situated the lockers, each member having a place to keep his Individual property On the west is the general club locker for the reception of property Intended for the general use of the members, such as printing frames, paste, ete. In this end of the room there Is also a handsome eighteen-inch Globe burnisher, with its highly polished roll, used for putting on the high glaze surface which is so much ad- mired In the finished picture, The printing house is a corrugated iron structure 6x10 fect, on the roof In the rear of the rooms, with sloping windows facing the south. A small stove furnishes heat, so printing may be carrled on during both win- ter and summer months One of the best retouchers n the city makes the rooms ler headquar crs, affording mem bers the assurance of their work being fin- ished up as well as that of the best gallery in the eity. Correspondence is kept up between various clubs of like nature in the United States, and the rooms are open at all limes for the free use of visiting members of other photographic societies The Omaha Camera club is thoroughly or- ganized, Is successfully operated, its officers are eflicient, hard workers and encrgetic, al- ways on the watch for something new, at- tractive and Instructive for the society which they represent. The exhibitions and enter- tainments are well attended Danced Cheistmas In. The Omaha Guards full dress pa Madison on Christmas eve proved nently successful entsrtalument. The rooms were decorated with holly and garlands of Christmas greens, which emitted that delicate odor of pines which we usua fate with a happy Yuletide, The dining room with its floor as Ing purposes, as was also the south parlor, where from the chandelier was suspended a gréat sprig of mistletoe extending a swes privilege, if not command, which the soldier boys were not slow in respecting. During the dance a refreshing punch and confection- ery served and at the conclusion of the entertainment a luncheon was provided, for Which the company is under votigation to Mrs, Axiell. Later the party was grouped and photographed by flash Iight. The entertain- ment was strictly limited to members of the company and their ladies, The costumes worn by the ladies were in many instances both dainty and stylish. Mrs, A. K. Squier appeared in a white chiffon over white silk with trimmings of old lace. Mrs. Pixley, white silk mull with ornaments, Miss Chapman wore a stylish gown of white lace trimmed silk. Miss Evans, a handsome black velvet with puffs and trimmings in pink. Miss Dell Axtell, a rich black satin with bodice of delicate blue chiron. Miss Standish wore a becoming chiffon robe over white silk with lace trimmings. Miss Grace Marty, a dainiy pink chiffon over pink silkk with pearl ornaments. Miss Bowle lookad very charming in a black net dress over a light blue silk robe, Miss Parls appeared in a dainty gray creps with light gray overdress. The ladies present further included Miss Landis, Miss Shane, Miss Reed, Miss Carrie St. Guier, Miss Coon, Misses Phillips, Wil- cox, Ponder, Parls, Getty, Miss Grace Ben- nett, Miss Norris, Miss Skinner, Miss Anna Williams, Miss Walton and Miss Coverdale. How Princeton Was Entertamed. When the Princeton men were in Omaha two years ago they made friends of the debutantes of the season with great and wonderful facility, a knowledge that only comes from long practice in gliding from stage to box, while some of the other fellows in the club are amusing the audience. And this year the men were equally expert, the boxes being always filled with the much feted college men. But for the Colpetzer reception in the afternoon many of the men would have suffered by not knowing the fair ones of Omaha. About thirty girls received the majority of the college boys at Mrs. Colpetzer's in the afternoon, and a very pleasant time was spent forming the ac- quaintance of the Princeton men. A large number of guests was present, received by Mrs. Colpetzer, assisted by Miss Colpetzer and the following: Mrs. Patrick, Mrs. War- ren Rogers, Mrs. Milton Rogers, Miss Smith, Miss Burns, Miss Kountze, Miss Squires, Miss Cowen, Miss Lindsey, Miss Ringwalt, Miss Crounse, Miss Curtis, Miss McKenna, Miss Himebaugh, Miss Cady, Miss Johnson, Miss Russell, Miss Chandler, Miss Webster, Miss Doak, Miss Cook, Miss Peck, Miss Barnard, Miss Yates, Miss Bessie Yates, Miss Baum, Miss Sadie Baum, Miss Me- Clelland, Miss Mary Nash, Although everybody wanted to dance with “those charming bo: nobody thought of it or else had energy enough to carry it out until late in the afterncon. Then things went with a rush, the hall of the Thurston Rifles was secured and decorated with the tiger’s colors, some music was engaged and refreshments provided. Of course the visi- tors sald &1l sorts of nice things about the Omaha people and swore they would come . A large number of the fashionable audience at Boyd's adjourned to the dancing hall after the concert was over and danced until the club had to leave for their train, the emi- ty at an pearl Haleyon buncing Party. Christmas day was appropriately wound up by the members of the Haleyon club and thelr friends, In the evening the members re- celved their friends at Chambers' parlors and a program cf sixteen numbers was rendered in an unusually enjoyable manner, Light re- freshments, splendid music and general good followship ‘were superabundant.

Balley, hall, corner Fourteenth and Douglas streets, last Friday evening. Invitations were extended to all the mem- bers and friends to meet and spend a scclal and about seventy-five responded. The principal feature of the evening's en- tertainment was “high five,”” In which Mrs, Nellle Fisher won the ladies' first prize, Mr. Will Hanis the gentlemen's first honor, and Miss Mae Collins and W. C. Bouk were pr sented with the consolation gifts, the prizes offered all being very unique. Refreshments were served, followed by dancing. The social was a grand success and reflected much credit upon the commit- tee, composed of Miss Katle Distelhorst, Mrs, Hines and Mrs. Brewer, for the ex- cellent manner in which the affair was con- ducted, Wooden Weading. On the occasion of thelr fifth wedding an- niversary Mr. and Mrs. James F. Keenan gave one of the most enjoyable events of the season, which occurred ou Monday last at their residence, Fort Omaha.

Patrick at 1 o'clock, and from 1:30 until 5 the sons of Eli were treated to a charming entertainment by these hospitable people, who had two sons graduate from this famous Institution. ‘The house, in addition to the Christmas decorations, was further enhanced by the Yale blue, with here and there large flags to add warmth to the Interlor coloring Thero were cozy places for tete-n-tetes, and the girls of Omaha were not slow to learn from the Yale boys all about their sisters and cousins and aunts, The music was ex- cellent, the refreshments delightful, and, on the whole, the boys have occasion to remem- ber their visit to Omaha Amorg the young ladies present the undergraduates from Yale were: Misses Hughes, Curtis, Florence and Bessie Yates, Johnson, Dewey, Gretchen Crounse, Marion Crounse, Doane. Kountze, Gertie Kountze.

At noon yesterday Miss Kountze gave a lovely dinner to twenty-four people, the ma- jority of whom were intimate friends of Luther and Herman Kountze, who are mem- bers of the Yale Glee and Banjo clubs. The dinner was served at small tables, the floral decorations being violets, a bouton e being presented to each of the Yals bovs. To sist in entertaining the dwellers at w Haven's great university Miss Kountze had invited Miss Brown, Miss Crounse, Miss Lind sey, Miss Buck, Ringwalt, Miss Chase, Mrs. Learned, Colpetzer and Miss Doane, In honor of Mr. Harry Ledyard of Detroit, and_other visiting Yale men, Mrs. Robert R.

The bachelors and homeless members of the company provided an entertainment for thomselves on Christmas morning In the form of a smoker, during which was served a Christmas punch. The affair was quite informal, and was highly enjoyable. For the afternoon a_section of Boyd's had been re- served. The next drill night falling on New Year's eve, the company will appear in dress fatigue and fall in for a *‘setting up” exercise, which will be presided over by the officers of the company. The first platoon will bo in charge of Lieutenant Wilson, the second in command of Lieutenant Broatch, while Cap- tain Mulford will act as general iostructor, The exercize will further include the right and left hand salute. Several members of the company have lately been giving play to thelr artistic ability, and have prepared an Omaha Guards' spoon, the design to be patented and be the property of the com- pany. The Omaha Guards are ever alert and free to respond to command.as well as to appeal. During the South Omaha trouble the company fell in at a moment's notice and at the word of command, with every man accounted for, and did its duty. Now that there comes a cry of distress from the drouth stricken sufferers of the state, the rds have again promptly fallen in, and this time voluntarily through their officers and_ their chaplain, Dean Gardner, have ex- tended the use of their armory and the services of the company toward providing means for collecting food, funds and raiment for the sufferers. The manner in which this can be best accomplished has as yet not been decided upon, but the dean will in all proba- blity extend the offer to the King's Daugh- ters of Omaha. It is thought that in this way quite a collection could be made, as even those interested in conducting the affair weuld be willing to contribute indi- vidually something toward the general fund, Each member of the Guards can also be des pended upon for a contribution in addition to their services. This morning the chaplain of the com- pany wlill preach a special sermon to the Guards at Trinity cathedral, the company appearing in full dress. Miss Druke's Dancing Party. The dancing party given for Miss Alice Drake by Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Drake, Wednes- day, was a delightful affair, not too large a number for comfortable dancing being pres- ent.

OMATIA MUSICAL CIRCLES, The lovers of music in Omaha who did not accept the opportunity offered to at- tend the concert given by Franz Ad: Imann's orchestra at the Young Men's Christian as- sociation anditorium last Thursday night cer« tainly missed a concert that was well worth hearing. On that occasion Mr. Adelmann | made his debut before an Omaha a diencs as a musical director, and the fmpression he Teft upon the audience redounds to Omaha's credit as well as his own. Mr. Ade Imana has been a resident of this city less than a year. Before coming to Omaha Mr. Adels mann was with the German band which played at the World's fair. e has aiso | played under the instruction of Rubinstein and | other famous musicians of the old country. | The overture by the full orches rendered with a precision that st mp Adelmann as a director of much force, and his ability to control a body of musiclans quite apparent. The second number on the progi n gave the people an opportunity to Jud, of Mr Adelmann’s ability as a claironet player. With this fnstrument his technique, is as near perfoction as is sel dom reached. 1t was soul inspiring, and the lquidity of the tones produced Mr, Adelmann 50 per cent in the esti hation of musicians, Mrs. Charles Wilheln the foprano, was well received, and had to re. spond to an encore. Mrs. Muontefering's selection on the piano was oxo Ptionally Rood, but the accompaniment was very ore dinarily played. Mr. Pederson, the flutist, is well known to Omaha audience his selec- tions were almost perfectly rendered, and ho w compelled to respond to repeated encores, was Mr. The fourth publie piano recital by pupils of Mr. Martin Cahn Wednesday ing, December 19, at the Woman's Tooms, was ono of the interesting events Of the musical season. Ruth and Katie Wiley opened the program with a clever ex- ample of ensemble compo: itlon, “Forest Lite,” by Koelling. It is not a aifficult composition, but the young ladies played With nice discrimination. Miss Anna White played the polonaise of Merkel with credit to herself. Miss Georgie Kennard gave (h etude of Perillo called the “Humming Bird,” with exceptional ability for so young a player. She played without notes, and was as casy and graceful as if she had been no- stomed to appearing before audiences for rs. The mazurka caprice of Mason ias ed with taste by Mabel Barber, althou rictly in the tempo in whic hoit is writ- ten. But the surprise of the recital was Corine Paulsen, a young girl 13 years of age, who displayed a really remarkable apti- tude for the piano. She gave two numb In part one a gigue by Bach, and {he ‘Echo,” by Roff, both exquisitely phrased, ler execution ' and technique - clearly showing artistic finclinations of g high order. Later with Mr. = Dut violin, and Dr. Baetens viola, this star performer of Mr. Cahn played the grand trio of Ignace Lachner in a manner that won loud applause from the large audience pres- ent. A year ago Mr. Cahn played the same number with the assistance of violin and viola, and its technical difficulties may be imagined. Miss Paulsen is a young genius, and with anything like eareful training she Is destined to make a mark in the musical world. Fredericka Wessels played the Schu- bert Impromptu in C very prettily. Per- haps the most correct performance was that of Henrietta Rees, who interpreted the Mos- cheles “Rondo Sentimentale® faultlessly. Hul- dah Johnson played another Schubert number with credit, while Josephine Bell displayed much taste in the rendition of Bendel's ‘ By Moonlight."” ¢ the even- club Hans Albertels going away, and to give him a proper send-off his many friends have arranged a benefit for the ftalented young violinist at Boyd’s next Saturday evening, Mr. Albert has not received the recognition which his talents warranted, more's the pity, and after an uphill struggle he has finally decided to leave Omaha for other fields where his ability will be more largely appreciated, For hls closing performance in Omaha (he following excellent program has been ar- ranged: PART I a—G Major, for Piano and Violin. . .
