Miss Coulter of Chicago and Mrs. Mcdonald
of Plattsmouth, Wednesday, brought out the
swells in large numbers, the Boyd residence
at Nineteenth and Davenport being particu-
larly well adapted for such functions. And
the interior decorations were very beautiful,
smllax and pink roses predominating in tn G
color scheme. The dining room was charm
ing in green and white, smilax encrcling the
table, in the center of which was handsome
bowl of white roses. Green and white bon
bons in pretty cut glass dishes added to the
effectiveness of the decorations.

ASSEMBLY WEEK CAYETIES
Functions That Have Drawn the Fire Of
Swell Maids and Men.
COMING EVENTS THEIR SHADOWS CAST
Brilliant Reception In Honor of Miss Van
Patten-Mrs. Cudahy Entertains for
Her Nieces-hirs. Boyds Pleasing
Afternoon-Personal Chat.

Assembly week has been particularly
pleasant from social standpoint, a number
of delightful functions bringing out the men
and women who make society as much of a
business as they do the law, medicine, dry
goods, ad iniinitum.
OF course the distinctive event Of the week
was the Assembly, which ths year is enjoy
ing revival of interest," aud popularity.
While not so brilliant as on the occasion of
the Princeton collegians visit still the most
exacting social neophyte could not find fault
with its brilliancy or the beauty of the
women. Outside of the accident which
happened to Miss Stewart the Assembly
went off web, there being enough strangers
to make it interesting The few other
events kept the swells on the qui vive and
our visitors had fair opportunity TO Judge
of what the Omaha four hundred really
are.
1t is matter of considerable regret that
the ladies who are interested in raising the
money for the purchase of the silk flag that
is to fly from the staff on the Nebraska
building at the Worlds fair are meeting
with so little success. While any one of the
ladies interested could give the amount
necessary for the purchase of the flag $50
and not feel the donation, they rightly de-
cided upon asking donations from the women
of Omaha, anything from 10 cents to dollar
being acceptable. AS yet but $40 have been
raised by popular subscription. This matter
should be one of city pride and the women
should respond more generally than they
have to the appeal of Mrs III. w. Yates who
has assumed the duties of treasurer

The Assembly.

Although not so largely attended as on
December 30, the Assembly Tuesday evening
was one of the pleasantest dancing affairs of
the series, there being just enough people
present TO make the evening thoroughly de-
lightful.
1t is very much doubted if there ever has
been so many flowers worn as on Tuesday
evening, ''worn" in this case being synony-
nous with carried, nearly all of the bellies
and dpwagers, who still are in their dancing
days, bearing huge bouquets of handsome
roses, violets and other hot house faVorites
And the gowns-there We're lots of new and
handsome ones and the girls looked more be-
witching than ever, which is sufficient proof
that as we grow older we improve in the art
OF dressing well. Then there were the ever
enticlng debutantes, several of whom this
season quite carry of the honors for beauty
and brilliancy, so that with all these favor
able conditions, pleasing decorations and a
good supper, the dancers quite enjoyed the
third assembly of the season
Yet the brightness of the evening was
greatly shadowed by the distressing acci-
dent that occurred To Miss Stewart of Coun-
slipped. spraining her ankle very badly,
the young lady fainting from the
severe pain. The accident following
close upon her adventure of
year ago makes II doubly distressing, as
the young lady will undoubtedly have to re-
turn TO her crutches, which society had
hoped she had discarded forever.
Miss Stewart wore an exquisite gown of
pink crepe, great munk founces giving the
dress very bizarre effect.
Miss Woolworth, who has been displaying
a number Of beautiful costumes since her re-
turn from Europe, wore one of the most fas.
cinating toillettes of the evening-a gobelin
blue trimmed with velvet and lace-and she
carried q big bunch of flowers.
Miss Belle Dewey was in pink silk,
trimmed with white, an immense bouquet Of
