individual member had won during the
sojourn here, the esteem and love OF all.
and In the younger set Miss Lucle Ra-
mey Will be sincerely missed, A magnl-
fcent Girl In every sense OF that word,
she was picked out in any gathering,
either on street or in drawing room, and

and appreciated by all who know her.
The death, Wednesday, of Miss Belle
Armstrong, removes much beloved
member Of one of Whcellrg's oldest fam

While the coming week will not wit
ness many weddings, the one to take

circle OF admirers In the approaching
nuptials is doubled In that her home Will
still be among them. Mr. Leon Klee.

Pittsburgh business and social circles.
His present occupation Is such, however,
that Wheeling society does not lose a
charming member, but by the marriage
of Miss Gutman, will gain by keeping
him in Its midst.
All club members know of the various
afternoon entertainments In store for
them, and the chief subject of talk, nc
doubt, will be the coming Patrarch'I

OF young and not so young society. 1t
seems an assured fact that M debntantl

and 1t may be just as well, since at the
ball referred to- ali the older men and
NJ the saI 49,
present,as well as the debutantes OF one
and two years ago, and any younger
would not have much chance at this
smartest affair of the whole season.
