Social Entertainments of the Past Week

The chaperon sits in the ballroom bright
Gracious and pure and fair,
With the rays from many a tender light
kissing her wondrous hair,
, And here, where the bellies of a swirline
town
Are tripping 1t down the hail.
Clad in her shimmering. stately gown,
Sweetest she Is of all.
Sweetest of all she rests serene.
And watches both man and maid
But she only adds to the SPELL | ween,
BY the music gently played
Fer lashes flush at a stolen glance
And blush at a meaning tone,
While am in love tglve heed, gallants)--
In love with the chaperon.
In love with the chaperon, tbs true,
Most desperately in love-
love the point of her dainty shoe,
The tip of her dainty glove.
And now as she sits like queen apart
The queen of the romp and fun
think of the tale my eager heart
VIII tell when the rout is done.
When the rout is done, and in peace,
alone
We chat. as we like. at last
lust l and this dear, dear chaperon
l wed in a day long past.
And I'll softly say, as lover may,
With a kiss, as q lovers right
That the prettiest girl of that ballroom
Was the girl with the hair snow white.

The weather continues to be uncer-
tain, with the nights too cool for out-of-
door entertainments, and the season too
far advanced to justify the planning of
indoor affairs. The past week was en-
liyened by a number of very pretty
functions, none of them of very elab-
crate nature. There were no really not
able weddings, bat Dame Rumor has it
that the popularity of June as the
month Of weddings will again be very
clearly demonstrated. Within a few
days invitations will be out for several
nuptial ceremonies. There were num-
per OF pleasureable events in the two
parks during the week and many more
are planned for the coming fortnight.

NAY INCREASE DIVIDEND
CHICAGO & NORTHWESTERN d.
RECTORS TO HOLD AN IMPOR-
TANT MEETING

NEW YORK, April lot became
known today that spec al meeting of the
directors Of the Chicago & North West
ern railway had been called for April II
in this city and that the Omaha directors
will meet ON the same day.
Wall street guessed that this meeting
meant an increase in North Westerns
common share dividend which is now 6
per cent and it was also suggested that
revelation of the company's holdings
of Omaha shares, acquired in 1882, would
be made in connection with dividend ac-
ton or in furtherance of some other
plans. No official corrOboratlon of these
reports could be obtained however.
In some quarters it was believed likely
that the closing of the Burlington deal
on behalf of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific railway might have
been the direct reason for the special
meeting of the North Western directors.
The extension of the direct interest and
influence. of the North Pacific roads into
territory they have never occupied be-
fore. and into direct competition with
the Northwestern has aroused the lat
ter company's directors and there is a
possibility that they may propose retaIia-
tory measures.
