HOMER CONCERT A MUCH TALKED OF EXPERIMENTING DRESS TO BE WORN BY THE AUDIENCE. FORECAST OF SOME INTEREST ING EVENTS - ANNOUNCEMENT OTHER SOCIETY TOPICS

The leading musical event of the winter Is the concert of Madame Louise Homer, who will be at the Jefferson theatre the night of October 20. under The aus pices of the Music Study club. It is espe- cially significant as the first occasion on which this splendid organization has brought an artist to the city. The public is familiar with the work of the Music Study club and well understands the power that it has become in the artistic life of the community. It's membership is larger than any woman's club in the state and is representative of the fash icnable as well as musical circles of the city.
 The Homer concert will be distinguished by one of the most beautiful audiences that has ever appeared at the theatre. The ladies in whose charge this feature of the entertainment has been placed hope to make it somewhat like the grand opera audiences of the large eastern cities, and though they recognize that it Is not the general custom for a concert audience to wear evening dress in con- sideration of the fact that Mme. Homer romes direct from the Metropolitan op- era to fill the engAgement and that this will be the clubs initial winter affair, they will ask the occupants of the boxes and the downstairs seats to wear full dress. This will not be made obligatory, but the managers of the affair have no doubt that their audience will enter into the plan willingly. The boxes are to be In charge of a prominent society matron, who will have her list ready in a few days.
