A Brilliant. but not Gay Week.

Social and Personal Notes.
Last week was big with events of social
character, but was not at all prolific. The
attention of society people has been en-
crossed by only one or two special events,
but they have been of unusual magnitude.
The commandments at the Minnesota and
Hamline universities, with their attendant
social ceremonies, occupied the first part OF
the week, and the state musical festival
eclipsed everything else at the end, with a
few swell weddings Sandwiched in between
them. The Chi Psi fraternity gave gor-
geous banquet at the West on Tuesday
night and few unimportant events were
scattered about through the week. Such a
week plays anything but star part in q
social resume, unimportant as it is il
detail.
