AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA.
Country Club Opening Attracts Many
to the Grounds.
NUMEROUS GUESTS DURING DAY
second Annual Field Meet of Grade
schools VIII BE Held To-day
Fat DOnaIIy scRIded ut
Packing House.

The South omaha Country club opening
yesterday afternoon and evening was the 1
most successful of any in its history, and
the indications are for a season Of great |
popularity. The rain at noon which con-
tinued in light showers until 2:3O p. m.
made the guests late in arriving and re-
stricted the golf playing to the more en-
thusiastc lovers of the sport Many OF
the golfers were too busy with the enter
tainment of numerous guests to get out on
the links A good matched game was
played, however and the winners Of the
qualifying round will probably play Satur-
day to decide the prizes
The base ball game between the club and |
Creighton university resulted in a victory |
for the college men, 5 to L.
The dinner parties were numerous and |
2O6 guests were served to a generous table |
d'hote dinner consisting of fruit, olives, |
roast beef and vegetables, stuffed tomato |
| salad, strawberries and ice cream. The |
! threatening weathef of the afternoon |
caused delay in the arrival of the earlier |
guests so the last dinners were served at
$50 p. m. and the evening dance had be-
! gun before all the guests were served in !
! the dining rooms. The slight delay was
readily overlooked by the guests in the
| enjoyment of the brilliant occasion and the |
! perfect evening. The dance was one of the
| most enjoyable because of the perfect
evening and the good condition of the
floors. Dimmick's orchestra dispensed the
music. This function continued until u:3o
p m.
Informal Hospitality.
AS all affairs Of the club are intended,
every detail Of the entertainment was in
formal and thoroughly saturated with hos
Ditalty. II I 0Nail the prasdpnt of the
club, was everywhere present. He had the
assistance of Otto Radzuweit, the manager
Of the cafe and house accommodations. To
these two much of the great success Of the
opening of the season was due.
The guests included by far the greater
number Of the prominent families of the
city and among them were many invited
guests from Omaha and other cities. w. A
Schrei of Chicago was the guest of e. L.
Howe and had the distinction of having
hailed from the most distant point on this
occasion.
A matched game of golf between the
live stock men and the business men Of the
city will be played Saturday. This will be
a straight match, without handicaps, and
the losers pay for the dinners.
The grounds are in excellent condition,
although it is still necessary to use tenn
porary greens, and probably will be for two
weeks.
The roster of golf players was posted
yesterday showing the opening handicaps.
These will be subject to change every week.
Pat DonaIIy ScaIded.
Patrick Donaly, Thirty-second and A
streets, was scalded yesterday afternoon
at the watts of the Cudahy Packing COM
pany where he works. He slipped into the
watts by a misstep but was assisted by
his companions. Fortunately the water
was not quite as hot as usual and he
escaped with less severe injuries. He was
i attended by DR.. o. Riley, the Cudahy
I physician, who dressed his burns, which
were about the limbs and ordered him to
the South Omaha hospital. Last night
he was doing as we'll as possible under
the circumstances.
