SOCIAL HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK. Affairs that Brought People During the Last Six Day Yesterday ‘afterncon Miss Hazel Hammer celebrated her eleventh birthday by enter- taining her little friends. The following are the names of those present: Misses Hazel and Bessie Ham ner, Maud Turner, Hattie Dean, Fay and Ethel Kendall, Georgla and Helene Bixby, Mignon Maynard, Edna and Letha Butler, Blanche and Florence Rudio, Lida and Harriet Crittenden, Maud Sprague, Kittie and Bessie ,Beno, Grace and Mattie Harle, Florence Pippin, Sadie and Mad Bes- ley, Bessie Jonés, Dawn Anderson, Helen and ith Runyan, Fay Hollenbeck; Masters George and Jobn Wiiceler, Ernie Smith, Wil- lie Madden, Bert Walters, Clarence Hayfer; Mesdames L. Hammer, J. Madden, C. May- rard, J. Kaine, G. R. Wheeler, K. H Sprague, M. McMacken, J. Turner. ~ There were many presents recelved and all had a delightful time. A novel entertainment was given at the Christian_tabernacle Thursday evening, the occasion being the presentation of the prizes offered some time ago by Rev. E. W. Allen for the best story written in competition for the Church Mirror, prizes of $10 and $5 respectively. Prof. H. W. Sawyer presented Together | the prizes, and this ceremony was followed by.a milkmaid's convention. A bevy of young ladies each dressed in such costumes as milkmaids invariably wear in plcture books, and each armed with a stool and pail, impersonated the delegates to the con- vention, the business of which was supposed to be the discussion of matters pertaining to the dalry business. But the milkmaids were purely ideal, and instead of devoting themselves to their usual business, they went through with a very pretty drill, which formed a very pleasing feature of the pro- gram. The young ladies taking part were Misses Lila Sweeny, Mary Ferguson, Florence Carley, Carrle Grosvenor, Maud Grout, Min- nle Wallace, Elfle Miles, Marcie Miller, Minnie Sanders, Birdie Brown, May Miller, 1da Dempster, Cecil Crocker, Cora Berer, Ella Darnill, Christie Dingle, Jennie Bull, Lizzle Worley, Mamie Ott, Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Jones, Miss Elfic Miles sang “The Sweetest Story Ever Told,” and there was a dialogue by Miss Lucille Norman and Chester Brown. Miss Harriett Brown acted as chair- man, Miss May Grosvenor, secretary, Miss Bessie Rich, page, and Tom Hall, Mr. Olney, Clarence Allen and W, M. Van Arnam as reporters, Since the announcement has been made through tae papers of the names of those whu won the prizes in the Mirror story writing contest It has been discovered that there was a mistake. As heretofore stated, the first prize belongs to Miss Jessle Wallace, but yesterday Mr. Allen received a note from Misy Helen Aylesworth, who received the second, stating that she was not entitled to it, and enclosing the $5, The story which took first prize had no title, and the judges gave it thv title “Awakened.” It was not accompanied by the name of the author, and as the slip bearing Miss Aylesworth’s’ name was also unaccompanied by the name of her story, the natural inference was that they belonged to- gother. If Miss ““Awakened” will send her addresse to Mr. Allen and prove her identity she can claim her $5 reward. Last Wednesday afternoon at 1 o'clock Mr. Frank Drury, son of Peter Drury, and Miss Alpha Rishton, daughter of Alderman Henry Riaton, were united in the bonds of wedlock at the home of the bride's parents, 212 Har- mony street, Rev. H. P. Dudley officlating. About seventy-five friends of the familles ahd been Invited to witness the ceremony, and surrounded the happy couple. The pleasant parlors were tastefully decorated with roses, carnations and smilax, At the conclusion of the ceremony the wedded pair were the re- ciplents of the warmest congratulations from their riends present, after which an elegant lunch was served. At 4 o'clock the bride and groom left for their new home, The groom Was attended during the ceremony by Alfred Darrington as best man, Miss Cora Drury, a sister of the groom, officiating as bridesmaid, The bride was dressed in pale blue, trimmed with cream-colored lace and wore bridal roses and orange blossoms. Miss Drury, the bridesmald, was gowned in cream-colored silk and wore pink roses. The young couple were both born and reared in Pottawittamie county, The groom is the son of one of the most successful and substantial farmers in the county, while the bride is one of the falrest of Council Bluffs' daughters and a successful teacher, The presents tendered the newly wedded pair by their friends were many, both elegant and useful. Frank G. Carpenter, the noted correspond- ent, whose interesting letters have been a feature of The Sunday Bee for some months, is now on a lecture tour of the country and will be in_ this city on the evenings of April 10, 12 and 13 to deliver his interesting le tures on Japan, Corea and China.

DId you ever see a gasoline stove a blind man could use? There is one, and C. O, D. Brown has them. A man who never saw a gasoline stove (having been blind for years) has used one of these stoves constantly since April, 1894, and Is alive yet. A lady bought an unsafe stove, used it once, caught fire (the stove did—so did the lady) and she died, and is dead yet. Wouldn't you rather be a blind man than a dead lady? C. 0. D.

Leavitt, after an fllness lagtin® during the greater part of six years, passed peacefully away at his residence, 614 South Twenty-eighth street, this city. His aflliction, al ififst apparently of a curable nature, sfeadlly grew in propor- tlons from its inception, defying the most constant care and the highest medical skill obtainable, some wf the most prominent and experienced eastérh and western physi- clans having used their utmost -efforts to arrest the progress of his subtle malady, spinal paralysis, %9 which he finally 'suc- cumbed. ) ) Mr. Leavitt wa¥ born at Levant, Me., June 221851, the youngest of the four chil. dren of the marriage of George W. Leayitt and Mary B, Hazelton, both sturdy New Englanders of Puritan ancestry, = His father was a prosperous lumberman and operated in the woods of Maime, his principal place of business being Bangor, where he lived with his family until 1865, when his death occurred. ‘Three years afterward the family remoyed to Tllinols, though they remained there but a short time, going to Union county, Towa, in 1870. Locating on a farm near Creston, Mr, Leavitt, in company with his brother, engaged In' the business of farming and stock raising until, in 1872, he was deprived of the aid of his brother by death. Possessed by nature of an_indomitable will_and an energy far in excess of his physical vigor, he entered into the arduous task of personally attending to every detail of his business, amid great hardships and in the face of adverse circumstances, and was well advanced toward success when, in 1889, his body overcome by the severe strain_imposed by his exacting will, he was forced to lay aside the working tools of active service, but retained the super- vision of hie affairs. During the early part of 1891, by the death of an uncle, Dr. W. P, Hazelfon of Tarrytown, N. Y., he Inherited an estate of $175,000, to' the management of which he turned his attention, and, after disposing of his Towa interests, he, finally yielding to the solicitations of his family, sought by travel and the employment of every art_known to medical and surgical science to recuperate his failing health. Though_every locality which gave promise of relief was visited and every precaution which the devotion of his sister, Miss Leavitt, who was constantly at his side dur- ing his_ entire iliness, and his mother and sister, Mrs. Hayward, who were with him during the’ past two. years, could suggest was taken, he_steadily failed dav by ‘day, and came to Omaha in the spring of 1844, where, three months ago, he was forced to take o his bed for the last time. Many of the citizens of South Omaha will recall him to memory. for in 1887, attracted by the stir this rapldly growing’ little city was making, he visited the place and made many acquaintances. He remained there but @ short period, long enough to acquire an interest in property and the town's future.
