cial matters for the coming season In that !
city:
'There is considerable speculation as to
the number of debutantes the coming VIM
ter. Miss Hattie Kempner and Miss EN-
ma Seinsheimer will make their formal
| bow at the Artillery ball. as will Miss
Laura Shannon. Miss Anita Bondies has
not decided whether to remain in school
another year or to come out. MISS Ohm-
stede, so / understand, will be introduced
| She is at present in Eureka Springs with
her family. Miss Evy Waters, who was
prevented from making her debut last year
| by reason of being In mourning. will come
out this year. Then there Is Miss Ger
trude Wolston, who will probably make
her formal appearance Miss Wolston mas
been a leading spirit In the Bachelor Girls
club. Miss Ethel Randall returned last
spring form school at New York, where
she has been studying music the past two
years, and will be among the buds.
"In fact there is quite a bevy of young
ladies at the door of the formal fashion
able world eligible to the ranks OF de-
l'butantes. The debutantes of last year are
still with us without an exception They
will reorganize their Pedro club and pro-
pose to help make the winter gay; while
the young ladies' of winters which shall
not be remembered but who are all the
more charming because of their thorough
familiarity with the ways of the social
world, will adorn the fashionable gather
ings with their we'll gowned presence
From the looks of things men will be at
premium.
Married circles will be particularly gay.
One young matron informs me that she
knows of eighteen affairs on the tapis and
which will be given before the holidays
Miss Nancy Knox Davidson had more af-
fairs given in her honor than any debu-
: tante in Galveston for number of years,
and I understand that some which could
| not be gotten in before Lent last year VIII
be given this year.
"All-in-all, the season OF 1891 gives
promise of being gay
