Society circles in this city were I'M
Usually quiet last week. and the recep-
tons anu parties which were so numer-
Gus before the holidays seem to have
fallen into a state of ''innocuous desue-
tude." A few events of note took place,
among which was the reception given
to Bishop James McGolrick. at the resi-
dence of George A. Bracket, 625 Fifth
street south. last Wednesday, The in
tention was tOhave the newly appointed
bishop meet socially and in an in
formal manner the many friends
who have become attached to him
through association in the various ell
terprSes of the city which have sprung
up during his residence in this city, es-
pecially the exposition and public
library. For the space Of three hours
the protestant clergy, business men and
society ladies poured through the open
doors of MI. Brackets spacious resi-
dence, and all found opportunity to pay
their compliments and say farewell.
All dividing hueS of church and creed
were set saside in the general enjoy
ment, and Bishop McGOrick had cause
his worth. The barrier which usually
stands between the public and a MEM
Der Of the cloth. especially if he be of
the Catholic faith, was in this case EN-
tirely broken down, and the bishop
stood chatting pleasantly with his visit
orS as fast as they presented them
selves. Archbishop ireland was pres
ent, and the two bishops en-
gagged in pleasant conversation with
their protestant brethren, ignoring for
the time being all difference of creeds
and rituals. The illness of the host,
George a. Bracket, was the only event
which married the pleasure of the even.
Ing, but Mrs. Bracket and the members
of the reception committee succeeded
admirably in making every one feel per-
fectly at ease. AS the guests arrived
they were ushered into the parlOr on
the left of the entrance. where the re-
ceiving party stood, consisting of Arch
