The monotony which has settled
down on the social world was broken in
a very delightful way last week by
the exchange Of compliments between
the Schubert club, Of st. Paul, and the
Ladies' Thursday musicale, of Mime
apolis. Wednesday afternoon the latter
club made a call on it's sister club in
this city and was entertained in the
parlOrs of Park church, following an
unusually pleasing programme given
by the visiting musicians in the church
auditorium. The best talent of the
Minneapolis club was brought forward
on this occasion, and the programme
left little to be desired. The vOcalists
alone would have made a programme
OF worth. The reception following was
gracefully arranged. Several small ia
bles were placed about the pretty Par
lors. The tables were attractive with
beautiful flowers and brightly lighted
with candles. They were presided over
by Mrs. Ansel OppeEhe1m, Mrs. Cole,

NEW YORK, March 20.-Mrs. Mary V. G.
Bissell never wears a dress more than five
times. After a garment has been fitted five
times to her form she throws it away. Yet,
it appears, Mrs. BisseH is not always bur
dened with money. These thrilling facts
were made public in a lawsuit brought by
a dressmaker against Mrs. Bissell's husband
for 81, 0S0. Mrs. Bissell and her husband
live in a fashionably furnished house at %
West Seventy-secOnd street. The fact that
the lady spurned a dress after wearing it
five times was harped upon by the plaintiff
attorney. Mrs. Bissell said that last year she
had a wardrobe that had cost her about $1,000
or so, but that when the present season
opened she had but one dress. The lawyer
