Luncheons, dinners, theater parties,
musicales and weddings keep us all busy,
but dancing has been relegated to the
younger set, who, by the way, have had
and will have very good time this season.
The beautiful weather has brought no
end of young college fellows to town and
the debutantes of next winter have had a
very lively foretaste of what their life will
be when they are once launched upon the
world.
! Mrs. salisburys, Mrs. Blanding's. and
Mrs. Ira Pierce's dancing class had the
first meeting this season and very jolly
and spirited affair it was. The next dance
and cotillon is set for Friday next.
Mrs. e. w. Bliss and Mrs. Moses Hop
kins have been dined, feted and enter
tanned to their hearts content. They left
for New York on Thursday and will be at
the Holland during their stay there. They
propose European tour IN December.
Mr.. Fred Webster gave very delight
full dinner and theater party in Mrs. Bliss
honor on Monday, a full account of,which
appeared in these columns.

ese M -

The innocent little heart of the debu-
tante is beginning to fiutter and by the
time of her first german she may be ex-
pected TO have genuine palpitation. How
many different thoughts are coursing
through her busy brain! She is wonder
ing first of all i she will be success, and
that means a good time, and good time
means everything. The success of a young
lady just entering society depends on so
many things. Possibly the first requisite
is beauty-certainly to the unknown
person, it is the first attraction. After
that, to have a mother or interested
chaperone of position and influence who
combines that socially divine possession
tact-with her other qualities, means that
she will be well launched, and after that
she can take care of herself, if there is any
thing to her; especially if she counts
among her friends one or two older men
who know the world and who really take
an interest in the young woman.

HIBBARD-BRoPHY NUPTIALs.

A quiet wedding took place last satur-
day, the 10th inst, in the New church,
corner of Washington and Lyon streets,
Rev. Joseph Wooster officiating, the con-
tracing parties being DR.. Charles Wesley
Hubbard and Miss Helena Brophy. None
but the immediate relatives were present.
Both are we'll and favorably known in the
City, Dr. Hubbard being prominent dent
ist and an active member of the Olympic
and other clubs for number of years.
The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Margaret
L. Brophy, formerly of Virginia City,
where the young lady was brought up from
childhood. The happy couple departed
for an extended tour through Northern
California

WHY SOCIETY WILL BE GAY.

October gayety is so interesting because
1t is so varied, and every one is fresh for
the fray. 1t has all the pleasures of an
ticipation and the zest of just beginning.
Later in the season safety comes, and
boredom, that foe of modern life, makes
drag of all events. The increase in the
size and importance of San Francisco So
ciety is most noticeable of late years.
This has, of course, a tendency toward
forming cliques, the whole of society meet
ing only at large and general affairs, such
as balls. teas and receptions.

AS the time approaches for the debutante
to make her first bow to an always critical
and not always charitable host of people,
how she wonders if she viii be disap-
pointed with it all, or whether it will be
continuous source, of pleasure. How
many bouquets will be sent her? VIII
she look as well in her simple white frock
which she and an ever admiring mamma
have labored to make most effective as her
next friend, and will she have sufficient
quantity of small talk to keep the ball roll
ing?
If she has brains can she stand the fools
she is bound to meet and be polite to them
for policy's sake? Can she fight the battle
of social popularity and come out victor
ious? All these and many other thoughts
will disturb the brain of the little maiden.
There will be two kinds of buds this win
ter, as there always are. One set will care
for men only, not giving rap whether or
not they are liked by other girls, while the
other kind will strive for universal admir-
alton and many friends of both sexes.
One will be called attractive, chic and
perhaps stunning. The other will be
spoken of as delightful, charming and per-
haps lovely. Which would you rather be ?

Burlingame will not be heard from after
next week, so far as social events are con-
cerned. The Joe Tobins and the Misses
Tobin, who have done most of the enter
tanning this season, will return to town for
the winter.
Lennox has not been gay this fall and
perhaps on that account several spicy
stories are rife, but no names are men
toned and only those who are of the in
nermost circle understand certain allu-
sions.
Unless some engagements are announced
this week the matrimonial market must be
acknowledged to be very dull. Very few
manageable men and maidens ale listed
on the board, and Lent will have to do
wonders to bring the winters work to any
where near the usual standard.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-10-20

The best possible feeling prevails in So
ciety circles. The outlook for the future
could not be brighter. There will be
enough to keep the society devotees busy
for the next four months, bar Lent, OF
course. Even during the penitential sea-
son mild pleasures are of late more
leniently considered during recent years
than in the more austere times gone by.

Two dances are eagerly looked forward
to. One will be given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Sprague to Miss Romietta Wallace, Mrs.
Sprague's sister, at Armory Hall the latter
part of November. This is where Mrs.
Hager gave her ball last winter to her
daughter, Alice, which was considered
quite the most chic given, and invitations
for this one to Miss Wallace are eagerly
looked for. The other, a cotillon, to be
given by Miss Ella Morgan at her parents
residence, on Clay street, the scene OF a

There is no doubt in the minds of the
knowing ones that this will be most
brilliant season. Judging from appear
ances, the times are much better than
they have been in years, and you continu-

butantes. OF course, that will occur dur

October always presents its lists of we'd
dings, teas, receptions and dinners; also
the same with November, the larger dances
never taking place before its close. This
is particularly so with the larger clubs
the Monday aud Friday Nights. These
two clubs will both have their meetings the
same week-November % and 29-with
that most appreciated day of the month,
Thanksgiving day, and its great football
match thrown Uncertainty a.gay week to
look forward to, to say nothing OF the next
week-the great horse show-when it is to
be hoped the elements will favor US this time
as they have not done in several years.
The largest storms of the season have in
the past five years occurred about this

INTENDED 70 BREAK JAIL.
}. W. Bell Received Implements to
Effect His Escape.
The Officers Learned of His Plans,
Secured the implements and Ar
rested His Wife. Who is in Jail.
Both Will Now Suffer the
Penalty.

The deputies in Sheriff Burke's OF.
lice prevented the escape OF a number
prisoners Friday by discovering the
implements with which j, w. Bell in.
tended to cut through the wall.
Some weeks ago Bell, a white man OF
Old Point, was arrested by the police
charged with robbing the schooner
Mayiiower, which was in this harbor.
Bell was examined by the Police
Justice ana sent on to the grand Jury,
and in default Of q bond was looked up
in Jail. His wife, who lives at Old
Point, has visited him frequently, and
Friday last sue came to Norfolk to see
him and was allowed to stand 10 front
OF the cage to have q private conyersa.
ton.
The officers of the jail had heard
thst he would bring some kind OF an
instrument with which he intented to
make an effort TO break jail, and they
kept close watch. The woman Ind u
long talk with her husband, and when
she had gone they searched his cell,
and they found q new saw, rope, and
sharp iron instrument, which he in.
tended to use in cutting through the
brick walls.
Sergeant Burke and First Deputy
Quinn are out of the city. aud Dspu
ties Vail, White and Mercer consulted
MIR. Burke's counsel, Judge Brooke,
aud warrant was secured for Mrs.

Yesterday morning Deputy lWhite
went to Old Point accompanied by

Office, and arrested the woman who
was brought to Norfolk last evening.
She lsa very pretty woman and young,
and whom arrested was almost prostrn
ted by excitement. but was composed
when she reached Norfolk.
When the instruments for escape
were found Bell said to the officers ::
do what you please with me, but
don't do anything with nv wife" The
officers congratulate themselves on the
discovery and feel that had Bell cut
through the wall more than one prls.
oner would have been free.
