Why have music at card parties? a
card party does not necessarily imply
flowers or music. The guests are too
intent upon the games TO pay attention
20 other attractions. In fact, music Is
only a distraction and has no place at a
card party, even though hoStesses Occa-
sionally feel they must furnish an or
cheStra. One can talk 70 musical &C
commandment with little difficulty, but
playing a good hand 10 the strains or a
symphony and do hStice TO both Is out
of the question.
The marriage of Mr.. Fred Morgan, OF
Hickory street, to Miss Laura Thomas,
daughter of Thomas Thomas, OF Htna-
Vile, occurs next Wednesday evening at
the home Of the brides parents.

The new dances are as pretty as their
names. They are 1.-The Lafayette"
THE Aurora" THE Vienna" and in
the square dances, The MiStletoe
Minuet" is once more revived with new
and complicated figures. They are
somewhat similar to those in vogue last
winter, but are more complicated. The
LAFAYETTE" is danced in polka time,
and in il is introduced a step similar TO
the old heel-and-toe polka step. Then
there is a complete turn made in which
the partners, released from each others
touch, make complete circle, and,
Joining hands again, in perfect
time resume the dance, with redowa
and polka steps. In appearance, 1t is a
little like the Berlin, which was so pop
ular last year. The Aurora and Vienna
need a skilled teacher TO lead one sue
cessfully through their intricacieS, as
in each the step is changed three or
four times. In the Vienna the rocking
horse or seaSaw step is introduced, and
In the Aurora the partners face, dance
side by side and face again with 4 rap
idity and ease very startling to the UNI
initiated. Both Of these last named can
be danced TO waltz time. All these
dances show the rapid tend of public
sentiment toward what may be termed
scientific dancing" 10 which dances
like the Caprice, Military Sch0ttische,
Yorke, etc, have been leading. At pres
ent most Of the dances above described
are on probation, but there is no doubt
that they will become as well known as
the Berlin, the Caprice, the Yorke and
all the others which are now known as
"Old dances"
Monday night the "Lotus Glee
Club" gave a concert at
the Opera House which was at
tended by cultivated and fashionable
audience. The voices Of the gentlemen
composing the Quartette blend most har-
moniously and beautifully together, and
Miss Marshal's recitatiOns were admir-
able, notably those Of ''MoneymuSk"
and the Spanish Dancer" the latter
piece having been written expressly for
her. Her grace and purity of express
ion and method are remarkable, and her
lovely gown with its flowing draperieS,
while permitting perfect freedom in her
poses and gestures, was at the same
time modest and becoming in the ex-
IRENE.

Should girls propose? This ancient
question, so prolific Of humorous para
graphs aud incOnSeQuential talk, has
Just received a certain dignity of dis
CuSSion in a volume written by name
less speculative bachelor" The sub
ject is timely at the beginning of leap
year, and worthy of serious considera-
ton. II believe" says the author. IL
have asked nearly every prominent
lady lecturer on behalf OF wOmen's
rights il this Is not state Of things
that needs as much reforming as any
thing else, aud In every instance got
an affirmative answer. But ask almost
Sll other women aud you will get the
opposite answer" There's the rub.
Manageable women, it would
appear, want to be won by
wooing. They like the process. Is it
possible that any unmarriageable wo-
men wish to WOO? We do not say IT.; we
ask. Dean Smith believes that the
reason so few marriages are happy is
because young ladies spend their time
in making nets, not in making cages"
