What with the terpischorean carnival
and the Elks' minstrel show last week
aside from all the other social occur
rences, the week in society was we'll
filled. The only really large affair on
the social side was the costume party
given Monday evening at the Carroll
Club. The Arion Club has its annual
masquerade tomorrow evening, and at
the same time will occur the annual
children's masquerade at the Mozart
Society's Club house on the South Side.
Of the smaller entertainments last
week the most brilliant affair was the
PAUL luncheon Thursday afternoon.
The early part of the coming week
viii be replete with functions owing
to the fact that the Lenten period COM
mences Wednesday, shrouding a great
er number of the city's society devotees
in sack cloth and ashes. The fancy
dress bali to be rendered those who
participated in the carnival at the
Linsly armory Monday night promises
to be one of the most enjoyable of the
informal affairs of the winter season.

All Coast Cities In Perll-Many LIVES
NAY be Lost.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 15.-TDe tropl-
cal storm which has been raging along
the Gulf coast for two days has tonight
completely isoisted the city OF Mobile,
Ala, from the outside world. II is
known that considerable damage has
been done along the water front In
Mobile, but whether there has been
any loss of life or not IS mere coDiec-
ture. Nothing had been heard from
the country south OF Mobile up to the
time the last wire to Mobile failed.
At $50 this afternoon the Western
Union Office at Mobile was abonded,
the water at that time being three feet
deep in the operating room.
Two hours later communication was
had far a few minutes with Mobile.
The Associated Press operator there
had made his way to the operating
room in a boat, He took up his posi-
ton on top Of the switchboard. several
feet above the flooded Office, aud, de-
taching the Associated Press wire from
It's place in tie board, sent this mes
sage: ia
IAN on top of the switchboard here
with 3 lineman. The water is oveI
three feet deep In this room and it i.
still rising. The wind is blowing a
the rate of fifty miles an hour and VI
look for worse things tonight. The
business district is deserted-"
Here the wire failed and nothing
more could be heard from him.
1t is feared there has been loss o.
life on some OF the islands IN the Mis-
sissippi sound, located just outside thu
bar below Fort Morgan. These island.
are inhabited by French fishermen anC
are only about four or five feet abov,

Several times during the summer the
peoble OF Lexington have enjoyed the
opportunity Of bearing the siogulsrly
sweet and effective singing OF Miss Eliza
beth Smith. The ~graciousness which
she has shown In responding to re.
quests to stag on various has
been made all the more charming by the
really admirable rendering Of every sons
with which sne has favored os. Some Of
Us have felt that in our church music,
especially, her singing has been a great
help toward devout worship. Her solo
selections have been characterized BY
exceptionally good taste, and in the ex,
pressioa Of the music aud the enumeration
OF the words nothing has been wanting
to make her singing a most valuable part
Of real worship. Any community enjoy
Ing her services Is greatly favored indeed
