SOCIETY AT THE CAPITAL.
1t Proves a Dull week just Before
the Holidays.

The past week has been one Of much en-
ioyment. but marked particularly by but
one or two prominent events. The party
of the Patriarchs' club on Tuesday evening
was A most elegant affair. as they always
are. OF course the grand reception and
ball given By MessrS. Brugh and Truman
of the Hotel RYAN was the event of the
week. as indeed it was of the season. 1t
was BY far the largest affair of the kind
ever given in the Northwest, and one of
the finest in point OF cOStuming. In the
greatest balls given in the large cities of the
country it is rare to find so many elegant
and correct tOiletteS as were present at the
Ryan last Wednesday night. 1t was a
grand success in every way, and
adds to the splendid reputa-
ton which the propretorS have obtained.
The banquet given to the Haverly min
strel PARTY at the Merchants on Tuesday
evening was fine affair. although the la
dies were not present. The only feature
lacking to make it complete was the pres
ence of our old friend, Jack Haverly.
Years ago he used to visit US and he had
more friends than any other manager who
ever visited the city. l met him in Chicago
a short time since and urged him to come
up and renew his acquaintance with his
old comrades He said lit would be i'm
possible just now, but the next time his
party came up he would be with them"
He is the same genial, generous old fellow,
despite his reverSeS, and will never lose his
grip until he dies.
Speaking of Jack Haverly reminds me
that there were few at the table that re-
called him to my mind. Lou Scott, the
manager of the Grand opera house, is as
much like Jack as he was
fifteen years since, as could be
imagined. He has that same quick, nerv-
Gus manner. that same impulsive move
ment and the same brisk, precise style of
doing business. while he surely resembles
him in physique and face.
The Young Peoples association of Ply
mouth church held its monthly meeting in
the church parlOrs on Thursday evening
and listened to a very enjoyable program
arranged by its music committee. as fol-
lows: Instrumental quartette-pianO. yiO-
lin. flute and 'ceIIO-MisS Seelye MeSSrs.
Schauffier James and Bosch; vocal solo,
Mrs James vocal trio, MeSSrS. McGill and
w. F. and j. c. Myron; vocal solo, Mrs.
Dr. F. r. Durham: vocal solo, Mrs.
james; vocal solo, AIrs.D f. r. Burnham;
Instrumental quartette.
THE ST. PAUL IDEALS.
The gentlemen comprising the company
of amateurs known as the Ideals, and who
are probably known to most of St. Paul,
have at the request of Sweet Charity ar
ranged minstrel entertainment to take
place on January IL and Is at the Grand
opera house, the details of which are given
below. 1t is designed to surpass anything
before attempted by this company, and,
Judging from the vocal talent selected by
Messrs. j. D. How and Walter Morton, the
musical part Of the program is in good
hands. The list is as follows:
