LUNATIC EUOnRE.

Lunatic Euchre is the very latest
game socioty danes are permitted TO
enjoy, and one is tempted 10 prophecy
that The game will be hailed with de-
hight by he devotees Of ouchre.
In a Texas city invitations sont out
for q recent card party bore the IN
scription "T4unAtic Euchre." or course
every one invited was on the qul vIve
to understand the meaning of those
words, which might mean a reflection
on the players or anything else, and
the invitations were eagerly accepted.
AS to tho game, It is played similar
to regular euchre-trump turned up,
discards made, etc, the important diff
ference being that instead of holding
ones hand so that only the player
sees it, the cards are played with their
backs held to the player, who thus
gives the opponent full view of his
hand. or course one has no idea
what ono is PLAYING, whether bower
or the joker Is PIT down; and therein
lies the fun of the whole thing. Fol-
lowing suit Is not expected, and the
game Is, or ia not, progressive.
Prizes are given as In the regular
game.
Apropos of card parties aud prizes,
the hostess should always provide
prizes for the Invited guests, as well
as the prizes usually given.

Vicksburg has delightful social
organization, composed of VirginianS
and their descendants. the object OF
which Is to keep alivo the pride and
interest of it's members In the Old Do
minIon. and to foster that feeling OF
kinship and kiudliness which IS 40
characteristic of VirginianS wherever
found. Greenvllle also possesses a
large and typical Virginia colony, and
might with great advantage follow
the example of Vicksburg, or better
still, let all the VlrginianS OF the
lower Valley form themselves into an
organization, with chapters in the
different towns.

SOUTHERN WVMEN.
Put on PEDESTAL and Worshrped BY
the Men.

All plantation life ia to a c0hsidera-
bio extent pRtriarGhal, except that, iE-
stead of the women being Eubordina-
ted TO masculine pleasure aud aKgrAn-
dizement as with the patriArchs Of old,
they are set on pedestal and prac'i-
cally worshiped, says Lipplncotts. 1t
makes little difference to this modern
patriarch of the cotton belt if his cuffs
are frayed and his coat rusty, so long
as his wife and daughters wear suits
to church that arc rs stylish as his
crops can pay for and their village
dressmaker can devise. II is feature
of the day in the South, as we'll as
elsewhere, that women are being bet
ter educated than men. In the North
ern States of the Union this higher
culture is tending manifestly TO celiba-
cy, but in rural localities through the
South The girls come back from Scad-
emies aud colleges aud accept the
young men who stayed at home to
work the plantation, the same ones
they would have married had they
not gone away for the education the
parents sacrificed 50 much to besIow
They know what splendid material
these men Gre made of, and in the at
traction between the eternal womanly
ami the eternal msuly the question Of
boek-learning counts for little. To
lead patriarChaI life without patri-
arch would be dull indeed, @nd II must
be said that 1t requires courage of a
superior order TO remain single III a
situation which would offer little aim
and stimulus outside Of wifehood and
maternity after youth has waued,
For this reason youth 10 considered
the high prize, the valuable capital
aud stock in trade. The wom"n fade
no earlier than thOir Northern sisters,
but, owing to al Inherited habit OF
thought, the label OF decay is respect
fully fastened on them by the popular
mind while they are still in their
prime, and in the Northern aud Esst-
ern States would be accounted cspa-
Bile of all things, even of marrying
well.

PARK CONCERTS.
Business Men Asked to Become Mem
bers of the Club.

M. B. Wilson, chairman of the committee
on permanent organization of the Indianap-
oils Concert Association, finds that even
more interest is being taken in the under
taking than was hoped for. The committee
last night sent out letters asking business
men to become members of the permanent
organization. The letter reads;
AT a recent meeting called by ]. c.
Adams, w. G. BobbS ID. p. Erwin j. H
Holiday and d. NJ. Parry it was deter
mined to form an Indianapolis Concert AS
soclation for the purpose of giving free
band concerts in the parks of the city and
possibly occasional concerts in the theateTS
during the summer, 1t is the idea to have
for a season of ten weeks one concert each
week in each of three parks located in
different parts of the city. This will in
VolVe an expense of $500.
You are invited to be one OF the hundred
to which the membership will be limited.
The expense to each member will not be
more than SIS for the year, S. of which is
payable now and the remainder at the call
of the directors. The members will have
special privileges at whatever paid concerts
are given, and probably will be provided
with seats without expense during some at
least Of the free park concerts. Please
answer on the inclosed form before
Wednesday, May 20, as vacancies in the
membership will be filled by other invita-
lions at that time.
AT the meeting held last week Emil
Wulschner suggested that a popular way
would be for the new association to have
the concert given by the children's chorus
yesterday afternoon repeated at an early
date for the benefit of the poor children
of the city who had no opportunity TO at
tend. 1t was his suggestion that the con-
cert be free to the children. He thought
that there would be enough paid admissions
by parents who desired to accompany their
children to cover the expenses of repeating
the concert. Mr.. Van der Stucken owns the
copyright to the orchestral score and was
unwilling to loan it. He said that it could
not be properly rendered without pro-
fessional orchestra. AS it would cost too
much to have him bring his orchestra here,
the plan has been abandoned. In this fact
organizing an indianapolis orchestra that
viii be capable of meeting any demands
made upon it. An organization giving con-
certs throughout the summer would serve
TO keep together the best musicians en-
pIoyed in the theaterS during the winter.
The idea is to employ a director to furnish
the music. He will procure his own mu-
scians and be responsible for the class of
music rendered.
After enough favorable responses have
been received to the letter of the organiza-
Wilson. w G. Bobbs Emil WulSchner,
Bement Lyman and Evans Woollen, Tenn
porary Chairman Wilson will call q meet
ing TO perfect permanent organization.
The undertaking will be pushed rapidly so
that concerts can begin in three or four
weeks The park commissioners are very
much impressed with the undertaking and
have indicated that they would allow the
use of parks for the concerts.
