ADVENT OF EASTER.



THE SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS WORLD ENJOY
JOINT LIBERATION IN MINNEAPOLIS.
This is Easter Sunday-the bright day that
releases at once the Christian and the social
worlds from the thraldom of forty days of
FASTING and repentance. 1t is supposed to be
the greatest and most glorious day OF the
church year. The plan of redemption is
complete; the SAVIOR has suffered the pangs
OF crucifixion and has risen from the dead to
ascend in glory. The social butterfly, which
has been chrysalis for the same time, is to-
day released and scars upwards in the bright
sunlight of fashion. 1t will soar, however,
not In the artificial glare of the gaslights, in
crowded ball room, but in the genuine sun
light of glorious spring. 1t will faunt its
Drlght-hued wings very soon, where the wind
softly ruffles the bosom of Minnetonka, plays
over the piaZzas of the hotels and seeks out
the lovers flirting in the shady woods about
its banks.

| the principal thoroughfares and at the Grand
opera house yesterday afternoon. 1t was
| sort OF dress parade day about the city, and
the ladies took advantage of the mild atmos-
phere to display their latest acquisitions in
the way of uniforms.

The rumor that the Nicollet club has
| adopted the pompadour as the club style for
dressing the hair is denied on the best
authority, though personally it has been
adopted by members. 1t is known as the

let boys, who are very particular about their

line that would warrant ''scare head' in
the most ultra society paper. The proximity

expiring, and remorseful feeling probably
caught many who had not duly observed the
sombre season. At all events the social
