AT NIiNNETONKA.

The past week has been one Of many
happenings i'll society circles at Lake
Minnetonka. 1t was tennis week, and
at the Lake Park, where the boys are
quartered, there have been social gath
erings without end. There was the re-
ceplion OH Tuesday evening, followed
on Wednesday evening by hop. The
german on Thursday, however, was the
event of the week. 1t was very we'll
attended by people from both cities,
and everybody spent very delightful
time. For the musical entertainment
on Friday evening hop was substi-
tuted, and the impromptu programme
which was gotten up proved to be very
enjoyable. Last night the presentation
OF prizes took place, and the young peo-
pie, never tired of dancing, hoped
again.
Truly, the amount of energy that
these young things at the lakes put into
this graceful amusement is marvellous
to people who find it hard to exist with
the thermometer at 100 deg i'll the
shade, but we must remember that there
are lake breeZeS and dimiy lighted YER
andaah, and we are forced to conclude
that these things make these numerous
hops much more tOlerable. No sooner
will the tennis be over than we will be
plunged into all the festivities connect
ed with having the crews of three boat
clubs in our midst. A great deal Is
being done to sustain the reputation
that MinnetoDka residents have made
for themselves for their hospitality, and
a very gay time is assured both for those
taking part in the regatta and their
friends.
And so it goes. One thing follows an
other 50 rapidly that we forget that it is
not the social season. for every week we
have as many charming things to chron-
icle as though it were mid-winter and
everybody at home entertaining.
The formal hop at Hotel Lafayette
last night was the most largely attended
one that has been held this season.
There were a great many people out
from St. Paul, many beautiful costumes
were seen, and it was in the wee sna'
hours of the morning when the affair
broke up. The musical programme
