The Lenten Season Has Played Havoc in
society Circles.

toZeman, MarGn a.-Ine Lenlen sea-
son commencing last week has played
viii probably be but few social events
of any Importance during the present
month, Some of the whist clubs have
concluded to refrain from playing until
Lent is past, and as whist has been
the principal feature and amusement
in every or nearly every party and en-
tertainment the past season. there can
he nothing but rest for the lovers of
this fascinating game until Easter.
The past season in Bozeman has been
famous for its gayety along social lines,
and never before has society in all its
phases been so gay. The probable
cause of this was the prosperous times,
large crops and the eheerfulness which
would naturally ensue from the feeling
of relief after hard times. and the pres
enee Of a few a0-eent dollars. and the
hope that bimetallism is surely coming
in the near future.
a Lecture on Entomology.
The NTH lecture in the series of free
lectures given by the members of the
faculty of the Montana College of AG-
ricnlture was delivered on Tuesday
evening last in the Christian church by
Or. Wilcox, professor of entomology and
physiology. The lecture was on ento-
mology, and was very interesting. The
doctor spoke on the structure of the
many thousands of bugs, and the good
some of them do. and also of the evil
these little works of nature can achieve
in short space of time. He astonsh-
ed the audience when he demonstrated
the fact of the many myriads of in
sects there are in existence, and proved
the old saying that even the smallest
bugs have other bugs to bite them. The
address was made more interesting by
aid of the stereoptcon. which brought
out the structure and interesting ana
somical features of the insects. The
church was crowded to It's full capacity
with students and citizens of the town.
