The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-03-07

The young men Of today must be I'M
usually shy, or else the Hoosier young
ladies are exceptionally enterprising,
for in Hagerstown, Ind, has been or
ganized club Of young women whose
main purpose is to help each other
capture worthy husbands. The Oriole
club Is the name of this singular or
ganizatiOn. 1t is composed Of thirteen
bright, intelligent and wide awake
young women who have decided objec-
lions to posing as girl bachelors until
they have degenerated into old maids.
With a frankness which is surprising
they have confessed to each other that
they want to get married while they
have the opportunity and have gone
reSolutely to work to create for them
selves opportunities of the most favora-
BILE kind.
But don't imagine that they take the
public into their confidence. They are
far too wise for this and have a keener
insight into the workings of the mas
culine mind. Ostensibly the club was
formed for the purpose of promoting
social functions, but it has been dis
covered that the real object is a deeper
one. At the secret meetings Of the CLUB
1t is freely discussed. The marriage
able young men of the community are
brought under scrutiny, and If the club
members agree that they are worthy of
any Of their number then the most
skillfully contrived nets are spread 10
catch them.
Almost every one knows what subtle
schemes and plots one young woman
can contrive when she is bent on en-
sharing the heart and winning the af e
fections of a particular young man
Just try to imagine, then, what thir-
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-03-07

teen young women could do when
working in unison. Where is the mas
culine heart guarded by Notifications
sufficiently strong to repulse such an
attack? 1t is not to be wondered at,
then, that the club had been formed
but a few weeks when one of it's mem
bers announced that she had won a
prize. The marriage took place re-
Gently, and the bride confesses that
the match was brought about directly
through the efforts Of her sister ORR
oles
This is the first fruit which this mat
rimonial plant has borne, but more is
said to be ripening. There is pruning
process, too, which the Oriole club has
made more or less use Of and by which
its matrimonial garden spot is cleared
OF weeds. The bad traits, as we'll as the
good ones, of the unconscious male
candidates are discussed in star cham
Der session, and woe to the young man
who is weighed in the balance and
found wanting, for he is promptly cast
aside. Should one Of the Orioles be 80
rash as to accept the attentions Of any
such blacklisted person, she is labored
with by the whole club. If she proves
obstinate, she is expelled forthwith
Thus far no such crisis has arisen,
and the Orioles are a harmonious
bakers dozen. There is no telling
what may come to pass in the future
however, and critics of the clubs
methods are disposed to look upon this
feature as one which will threaten the
clubs future existence.
Another branch of the clubs efforts
Is in a purely socialistic direction. In
order that each Oriole may be made
worth winning the young ladies pro-
pose to combine for their mutual adj
vancement. Those who have special
talents or accomplishments will try to
impart the same to the others. Those
who are gifted in music will give the
rest instruction in that art. The girl
who Is the best cook will organize a
cooking class, and she in turn will be
taught the latest dances or newest
tricks in embroidery.
But, while mental attachments are
to be sought after. the item Of personal
attractiveness will not be overlooked.
The girls consult each other on points
in dressma.king and millinery. and by
means Of Wholesome and kindly criti-
cism learn what cOlOrs are best suited
to their complexions and gather other
useful hints. The girl with the bad
complexion is prevailed upon to try to
improve 1t by methods which the others
have tried with success, and the one
who has been accustomed to dress her

any consistency, owing to the excel
lence of the programme.
The performers were Mesdames Har-
ris and Yale, and MesSrs. Fairchild,
George and Churchill. The first num-
Der was Osten's Invitation to Dance"
by the quartette, Mrs. Harris. Mrs.
Yale, Messrs George and Churchill.
The quartette was excellently balanced
for the number and received hearty
applause. The individual members Of
the quartette, almost needless to say
to the music-lOVing people Of the city,
appeared to advantage. Each of them
had a solo part. Mr.. Fairchi1d gave q
reading and was recalled.
One Of the most important and inter
esting events Of the present season,
both from a theatrical and musical
standpoint, will be the appearance OF
SouSa's band at the Metropolitan OPP
era house for two concerts next Thurs
day. The announcement of the COM
ing of this wOrld-famous organization
has aroused the muSic-loVerS Of this
city, and the capacity of the MetropoI-
1tan will certainly be taxed to accom-
mOdate the audiences at both con-
certs. SouSa'S admirers in this city in
clude every one who loves simple and
melodious music; even those who rel
ish, or think they relish, the ponder
Gus and sometimes fatiguing compost
tionS of the SO-called modern school,
find agreeable diversion and often real
delight in an evening with the Won
derful band master. SOuSa seems to
gauge the public taste by an intuition
which is akin to genius, and the en-
cores at his concerts invariably number
nearly twice as many selections as
those shown on the programme. He
has the faculty of combining classical
selections and popular music in his
programmes in a most delightful man
ner. A lively march, a catchy waltz
or darkey song with sandpaper AMI
tambos, make the contrast that is
needed to relieve the soberness of the
classical compositions The sale Of
seats for the SOusa band concerts next
Thursday afternoon and evening opens
at the box office of the Metropolitan
Monday morning.
A very excellent programme has been
prepared and will be given this after
noon at Harmonic hall, Minneapolis,
by the DAM orchestra. Director Frank

Beet Sugar Making

The following is a recent bulletin OF the
Indiana experiment station ON this interesting
subject:
The subject Of beet sugar making is at
present receiving considerable attention in all
parts Of the United States. Factories are
oprating in California, Utah, Nebraska and
New Mexico, and new factories will be
erected in California and Utah, and possibly
in South Carolina.
Many letters are received asking about the
prospects for the industry in Indiana. The
Perdue Experiment station has conducted ex-
periments with sugar beets for several years,
and the results Of the work have appeared
in bulletin form. Seed has been sent out to
every county in the state, and samples of
beets have been received from all parts Of
the state. While many samples were of un-
satisfactory character. as was to be expected
with crop requiring especial treatment
which our farmers had neither the time nor
tools to carry out to best advantage, II is
still true that In all sections Of the state
beets have been raised that were satisfactory
IN point OF size yield, sugar content, purity
and cost Of production. In nearly every case
the farmers reported that from their results

"BooK OF COMMON PRAYER"
Weekly Lenten Lectures at Christ
Church.

The course of free lectures on Chris
tan Unity, delivered last year under
the auspices Of the Church club Of the
Diocese of Minnesota, met with so
favorable a reception at the hands Of
the public, and the lectures when pub
lished were so heartily commended by
the critics of the secular and ecrlesias-
tical press of the land, that the club
has decided to continue the good work
thus successfully inaugurated. To this
end the club has arranged for a second
course of free lectures upon the general
subject of The Book OF Common
Prayer" which will be delivered at
Christ church at s o'clock Tuesday
evenings during lent.
In the matter Of public worship, there
has been in recent years among those
bodies Of Christians classed as nom
liturgical, g. pronounced trend towards
a precomposed and responsive form Of
service instead Of the extempor1zed one
which has so long prevailed. In view
Of this general drift of all Christian
people towards a revecent, pre-ar-
ranged and responsive service when
they assemble for public worship, the
present has been deemed an opportuDe
time to put before the Christian pub
lie a course Of lectures on the Book of
Common Prayer" which, next to the
English bible, Is most deeply rooted In
the affections and traditions Of English
speaking people.
