'TONKA AND THE BEAR.
BREEZY GOSSIP FROM THE POPULAR
LAKE RESORTS.
LIVELY ALONG THE SHORES


Some oft Prospective Occur
rences Noted.
Minnetonka during the past week has
been inst as lively as when the two big
boat crews were there some weeks ago.
1t Is really remarkable the number of
pretty girls who Immediately make
their appearance when the oarsmen are
on hand TO promenade the verandas
with them, and, although neither the
Minneapolis nor the Minnesotas are
such society men as were the Pennsyl-
vania boys, still they have been feted
and dined and ente rtained both at the
hotels and cottages ever since their ar
rival a week ago.
On the whole, the week has been a
very enjoyable one at Minnetonka, and
1t is likely to continue to be so while
the regatta boys are there. Then there
will be the Aug. regatta and pros
pect of another tournament some time
next month, SO that on the whole we
may decide that while we thought So
ciety dead at the resorts, she was only
sleeping.
At White Bear.
1t was not surprising then to find
White Bear little quiet during the past
week. when we consider the number of
attractions that there have been at Lake
Minnetonka. Still there have been
quite number of happenings of an in
formal, but none the less enjoyable char
acter. The usual number of both Sun
day school picnics and little private par
ties took advantage of the improvement
in the weather, while sailing parties
were things of nightly occurrence. The
yacht races at DellwOod yesterday after
noon brought the usual number
of the summer girl out from
town, and nowhere does she appear to
such advantage as on the delightfully."-
cool verandahs of the pretty little club
house.
Then, toe, after the races, the weekly
informal hop is certainly not the least
attractive part Of the days entertain
ment, for after the dinner is disposed of.
at which the men discuss the Kittens
probable chances of winning next
weeks race, and what the Strangers
chances are with some other boats of
her class. then the services of the
anarchist" are in demand, and he
discourses sweet music until the
whistle of the last train is heard, when
all must depart who are not fortunate
enough to reside in A cottage near by
On the whole it is quietly pleasant at
White Bear, and they do not want the
larger events which are so popular at
the lake on the other side of the village
to the west of us.
