PAST WEEK QUIET.

The past week has been just little
dull and this Is probably due to the
Lenton season which began Wednes-
day and continues over period of
forty days. The season this year is be-
ing observed by an unusually large
number Of person. Lutherans, Catho-
lies and Episcopaiians are perhaps
the more careful of amusements than
members OF any other denominations.
Among the charming parties for the
week were the ones given by Mrs. II.
II. Van SAINT at her home in North
Tenth street in honor OF her sister
Mrs. Peterson and daughters of Kan
sas City. Monday evening a dance
was gilven by Mr.. James Harrington
and Mr.. Robert Griffin in the Knights
of Columbus hall. The affair was
most enjoyable. The weekly party
was held Wednesday afternoon at the
Country Club house and in the even
ing the members of the Assembly
went out to the club and enjoyed
dancing. A number of the card clubs
and literary societies held their reg
ular meetings while other organiZa-
tons of a like nature decided to not
meet until after Lent.

ed with members of the club and 9TH

most cordial in their reception of him
and in their appreciation of his work.
The program ranged from a Rossini
aria and Wagner recitative through
German romantic and old English
songs to American compositions, a
number OF which were dedicated to
Mr. Tanning. He was in fine voice.

players which has strengthened it as
a musical organization.
When the season closed last year
the first work which its eminent mu-
steal leader undertook was the secur-
ing OF certain musicians whose serv-
ices he desired. Several distinguish
ed violinisls were obtained to strength
en- the orchestral strings; a number
of players Of wood-wing instruments
were invited to join the Russian Sym
phony orchestra and gladly accepted;
and finally a few exceptionally fine
players upon brass instruments were
given contracts to devote their entire
time to the concerts of this symphony
orchestra.
The result was shown early last fall
at the first concerts when those who
were familiar with the abilities of the
RussianSymphony orchestra declared
that it was a more efficient organiza-
ton than ever before. The splendid
sweep of the strings, the mellowness
of the brass and wood-winds have al
ready stirred thousands of music low
ers this season to outbursts of enthu-
siasm for these admirable musicians.
When they are heard in this city with
the assistance of four distinguishes
singers, the concert will be one long
to be remembered for the Russian
symphony orchestra is a great orches-
ira.
