be laid aside and our thoughts and steps
turned churchman's.
Apropos of church work, | hear that
during the winter. Mr.. Sellick of st.
Marks church wilp give organ ~recitals every
week and at each will be assisted by some
one OF our prominent amateur vocallsts.
| No admission will be charged for these
musical ieasts, but any contribution that
will be made is to go toward a Choir
Boys Fund which will have for its aim
the instruction and amusement OF the
members of the choir.
On Monday night Hans, the Boat
man" was given by an excellent company
at the opera house. The tiny child who
played one OF the principal characters
was quite a phenomenon and ~captivated
the audience with the artless and natural
manner in which she played her difficult
part.
Tuesday evening the New Whist
Club" met at the house of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jeffrey. A whist club" hat devotes
the entire evening to the fascinating, but
perhaps less scientific game of High
Five" might, with reason, be accused of
inconsistency but, I'm sure, the enjoy
ment of the guests was not lessened by
the change in games. A delicious supper
was served about eleven and the evening
concluded with round games and general
merriment.
This same evening was the occasion OF a
charming dinner given by Mrs. t. A.
Kent for her daughter Miss Memo. The
guests were: Miss Thomas, Miss Dick
ems, Miss McFarlane, Miss Bolton, Mr..
Beard, Mr.. Birmingham. Mr.. Morgan
and Mr.. Rossire. The round table was
beautifully decorated with roses and softly
shaded candles and in the cake were hid
den two ieweled rings, which were to be-
long to their lucky discoveries. Miss
Dickens and Mr.. Rossire were the fortu-
nate ones.
Mr.. and Mrs. Adams celebrated their
tenth wedding anniversary on this same
evening. Lotto was the principal amuse-
ment, and proved very enjoyable and en-
tertaining.
On Wednesday evening the Capitol
City Social club gave a pleasant dane.
ing party at Library hall. A series of
dances will be given by the club during
the winter.
On Thursday evening Miss Ivena Baker
gave a drvie whist party in honor of Miss
Chapman OF Oakland. Gala, formerly of
Cheyenne. Mr.. G. W. Riner was the
winner of the first prize. After the whist
game was decided, Miss Chapman re-
cited several selections in a pleasing man
ner. Dancing and refreshments closed a
very pleasant evening.
Thursday afternoon a delightful high
tea was given by Mrs. w. l.. Kuyken-
dali. This sort of entertainment seems
now to be quite the most fashionable
thing with Cheyenne ladies and it GER
tainly is a charming way of entertaining
the fair ones without the society of the
sterner sex. Among the guests were
Mrs. Baxter, Mrs. Reel, Mrs. Guthrie,
Mrs. Baird, Mrs. KENT Mrs. Barkwell,
Mrs. Carroll, Mrs. Draper, Mrs. Brews-
ter, Mrs. Hammond, Mrs. Bergman,

Parshall.

Mrs. G. p. Organ and Mrs. Parshall.
On Thursday evening the Cotillion club
gave its monthly dance. The ladies COM
prising the committee on decorations and
supper were Mrs. Appel, Mrs. Hum
phreys, Mrs. Kent and Mrs. VanTassell.
and they are to be heartily congratulated
on the success oftheir efforts, which con-
tributed much towards making the affair
a brilliant and enjoyable one.
The hall was deliberately trimmed with
the flag of the nation and with the soft
ened lights and cosy corners suitable and
convenient for a little innocent Irritation
the picture vas complete in all details.
The music was splendid and inspiring and
it was no wonder that every one felt in
the humor TOR dancing and that the fun
was kept up almost without intermission
until the "Wee Sma' Hours" The ger.
man was led until ~ O'Clock by Mr.. VIM.
Sturgis and after that by Mr.. Rossire who
introduced some novel and mirth pro-
vokipg figures. Among the ladies who
wore handsome new t~oilettes was Mrs.
Abbott in a magnificent gown of ruby vel
vet, Mrs. Humphrey in white lace gsr-
landed with red roses, Miss Thomas in
pale green and silver and white pond
lilies appeared like a veritable water
sprite.
Mrs. Glover in pale, yellow tulle and
