AN INDIAN SUMMER OUTING.


A Trip to Glen Karns-Prospects for a Dull
Winter-Souvenirs From Europe-The
Attraction of Art-What Society People
Are Talking About.
A PLEASANT outing party has been ar
ranged for next Monday, in which about 25
young people will participate, with suitable
chaperones. The party will leave the city
early In the morning, and ride out to'Glen
Harms, a beautiful summer residence, in the
woods, on the Allegheny river. Colonel
Aull Is the owner OF the place, but the fam
lily are not there at present. 1t is in the
hands Of the houeekeeper andservants, who
will be called upon to LOOK after the COM
fort OF the visitors. The amusement will
include nut gathering. dancing and enjoy
ment of the beauties of nature. The suppo-
sition is that the young girls will gather
ferns, autumn leaves and other pretty trif1es
that are always to be found in the woods ut
this time of the year, particularly with an
adniring young man to assist in the search.
Among those who will go are Miss Maud
Bennett, Miss Bessie Hale, Miss Lou C. Nc
Lean, Miss Nellie voigt DR.. George Proctor,
Mr.. W. Martin, Mr.. E. .Kehew, Mr.. Charles
Aull, Mr.. Burt Aull and Mr.. Dravo The
great hope of the young folks now is that
the weather will behave ITSELF
A DESIRABLE acquisition to Pittsburg
society next month will be Miss Mildred
Carlisle, of Washington, D. C., who will be a
visitor at the residence of Hill Burgwin,
ESQ.,, at HaZelwood. Her visit will proba-
bly, be an extended one, and it is safe to say
that there will be a number OF pretty teas
and receptions In her honor during her stay
in this city.
THIS winter is predicted to be one of the
dullest socially that Ptttsburg has seen for
years. This may be attributed to the small
number OF prospective debutantes. Last
year an unusually large number of young
ladies made their formal entrance into So
ciety, and, as seems always to be the case,
there are necessarily fewer than usual this
year. 1t has been noticed that for two
three years in succession there will be good
many, and then there is q lull, as Is the
case now. Among the well-known families
that will give daughter to society is that
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur W. Bell, the debut
daughter. 1t is intended that there shall be
a coming-out ball for her in the early win
ter, to be followed by another within q few

Princess OF Wales and the Czarina. Mrs.
Watson has the pictures artissicaly

objects of deep interest to all her friends as
well as herself.
THE exhibition of oil paintings at the
Art Society's rooms have drawn. d large
