Owing to the advent Of the new cap
tain doctor at the post. q number of
changes have been made in the resi-
dsnces of the lieutenants, the demands
o. the ranking officer requiring four dis
tinct sets of removals. Every time a
new ranking officer comes to an army
post the officers below make a
noise like a Methodist minister, and
take a long jump TO the place where
they are put. AS for the wives-well.
II the profanity were not confined to
the officers and gentlemen. there might
lie strong language even in tho fem
mime ranks.
IL any friend should note a rather
wan expression on the fair face of one
OF the prominent men identified with
the Press club these days, let him not
think it due to strained family relations
OF any such cause. 1t is due entirely to
the gentle art of the coTsetier. The re-
CURED hipIess condition of the present
style, il is said, is an easy matter for
the wouid-be perfect lady, but the
straight front idea IS rather obnoxious

One would suppose that a buzz wagon
dedicated to a real good hot time would
be of the color suggestive of. such,
but what of the sickly-looking vehicle
of crushed strawberry shade which is
allowed TO meander around fairly TAX
ing away all idea of a red-bo. time of
any kind The owner is now trying TO
convince his friends that the shade is
really Il crushed lobster, but it fails to
put life into his well-meant assertion,
aud the thing still looks decidedly off
color-even for lobster.

Those who still cling through all
other advertisements to their fondness
for the good old-fashioned dance, will
be glad 10 learn that there will be no
lack of such entertainment next winter.
Already steps have been taken toward
providing a series of assemblies. four
in all, to be given through the winter
at the Odeon. and the matter is settled.
In the past winter only the delightful
events giveif by private individuals
broke the monOtony, and this innova-
ton Will be welcome one. A dozen
young matrons of the American Beauty
class viii probably stand as patron
esses for the affairs.
The glad Easter tidings-the fact that
the men of the University club are to
entertain their friends at a cotillion
during Easter week.-Mrs. gone forth and
startling preparations are being made,
it is said, to make this event the finest
of its kind. 1t is the first cotillion in
the town for many days. and will doubt
less be an elaborate event, the social
committee this year being of the kind
that believes in doing real stunts

Have you seen those monstrosities in
the way of fOotgeaT with the padlOcks
to hold the shoes on instead of the Gus
tomary iaees or buttons? OF course,
dear friend. they're not intended for real
people, and, in fact, none for the fem
mime foot have as yet been shown, but
there will be found young men of suffi-
cient hardihOod to wear them, and be-
fore long one may see a chap believe
that's the proper word-spOrting these
signs that ne has lost the key.

4 lot of trouble over the lost money
which must have come under the head
