Society was not in it with the Repub-
lican convention the last week. 1t took
men and women to make a world which
received divine commeudati0n, and it
takes men and women to form social
world which could gain human APP
prevail. The lords of creation posted of
to Minneapolis this week to see the
great political elephant the Republicans
have been displaying, and even 3
o'clock teas have not been rampant
enough to make social week. Even
fair women helped to swell the wild
huZZaS, and sometimes without political
reasons. In every nook and corner
patriotic red, white and blue col
ored the town. and political bOmbaSt
filled the air. The city has been filled
with convention visitors, and family re-
unions have accompanied the gathering
Of the Republican clan. The most not
able event of the week was the banquet
given at the Aberdeen Tuesday evening
by the Sons of the Revolution to Gen.
Horace Porter and Chauncey Depew.
