THE SOCIAL WORLD.

In and About st. Paul--Two Pleasant Par
ties During the Week--Pers0nai Mention
of Men, Women and Events.
Social matters in st. Paul have been at
a practical standstill during the past
week. There have been but two society
events of consequence during the week,
and these are noted elsewhere. It has
become the rage to spend the best part Of

in the cottages and camps on the banks
of White Bear and Elmo can be found
the majority: of st. Pauls society people
aside from those who are taking their
summers rest at the seashore.
The party at the residence of E. s. Bur
bank on Tuesday evening, was one of the
most elegant of the season. The grounds
surrounding the mansion on Summit av-
enue were superbly Illuminated for the
occasion. The trees surrounding the
house were lit with Chinese lanterns,
while the avenue from the street to the
parlors was lined on either side with
torches of new and novel design. Du-
ring the early evening the old settlers and
party goers of st. Paul were entertained
in a manner that revived their youthful
experiences. After midnight the young
folks had full sway, and up to an early
hour in the morning they enjoyed the de-
light of the German. 1t was the unan-
imous opinion of all that more delight
full evening has seldom been passed in ST.
Paul.
