A period of unpurallellod dullness 1ms
pervaded society the past week, except
ing, of course, the Interest In golf,
which has reached ft point of enthus
iasm quirt satisfactory to even the
most ultra-golfmunlnc. Today tho
much talked of tournament will take
place In celebration of the f ormal open
ing of the season on tho permanent
links. Many entries have been made
and it Is expected that a larger num
ber than ever before will contest for
the handsome silver cup offered by Mr.
T. II. Watklns. This will be won
by the highest score made by either
jlndy or gentleman. A second prize
will also be offered for ladles.
Among the out-of-town players will
be the Misses Sterling, of East Orange,
N J.: Miss Downs and Miss Wagner,
of Germantown, and Mr. Iludnut, of
New Yoik. Several entries will also
be made by Wllkes-Hurre visitors. Din
ners and luncheons will occupy much
attention indoors during the afternoon
and evening and an Informal tea will
be served by tho ladles. Among those
who will enlertuln In a quiet way In
honor of the guests will bo Mr. and
Mrs. T. II. Watklns, the Misses Arch
bald, 'Mrs. K. Ij. Fuller and others.
The Country club bus will make regu
lar trips to cats on a forty-minute
schedule.
The Country club Is now In Its zenith
of beauty and has Inspired even the
most prosaic visitor during the last
few days to wax eloquent over It "hills
of living green;" over the notes of
other bhds than the garrulous English
sparrow and tho tempting little sup
pers provided by Jacob and Josephine.
Indeed, so enthusiastic has one Coun
try clublto become that, like the re
nowned Wellcr, ho has dropped into
poetry to the following effect through
with Irreverentlal tendoncfes:
The golfer plays by day and night,
lly morning dawn and still moonlight.
(fly cither one Ills gnmo's a sight)
Ills language s-catco is sane.
"lie talks of 'downy' 'divot '(to-
And wisely how to 'put,'
And when ynu stumbling disappear
In II I.l.ulcn stieet pan rut,
Ilfi says yon 'foozle' and you know
Ho to tho Country Club docs go."
Mr. and Mrs. T. II. Watklns will give
ii dinner tonight In honor of their
guests. Miss Downs and Miss Wagner,
of Uermantown.
Miss Nan Sampson, daughter of Ad
miral Sampson, who, it will bo leiucm
bered, has visited In this city, had ex
pected to be married in June, but ow
ing to the fortunes of war the date Is
most uncertain. She despairs of se
curing her rather nnd her fiance for
the same day, as all attempts of the
sort has proved futile. At present
the latter, lieutenant C'luverlus, Is in
Manila. When he was here, her father
was awny with his licet and Miss
Sampson laughingly declares that tho
obstacles In tho way of arranging u
wedding such as had been planned
orlglnnlly, seem to be so insuperable
that an elopment Is about the only
alternative. Miss May Torrcy, daugh
ter of J. H. Torrey, esq., was selected
as one of the bridesmaids, but at pre
sent the prospects of a wedding in the
near future are rather "Indellnltc."
Among the probable June weddings
will be those of Miss Edith Plerson
and Philip Pointer, Miss May Steele
nnd Miv Charles Reckwlth. Miss Mar
garet TTnnley and Mr. Harry Kllpat
rlcks. Mr;. Pied Edwards, of this city,
and Miss Grace Smith, of Carbondale.
A very pleasing marriage service wts
performed at the parsonngu of the
Penn Avenue Baptist church, on Miff
lin av,enue, Wednesday afternoon last,
whtjn, Mr. Jacob L.. Pet lit rman nnd Miss
Anna anggum were nappny united.
The; bride and groom were atended by
clofe personal friends, J. E. Webster
actjng ns best man nnd Miss Ella Hess
serving as bridesmaid. Hev. Kobert F.
Y. Pierce performed the ceiemony. Mr.

H HER POINT OF VIEW
Talk about tho vnnlty of women, did1
you peo those Knights of MnltuV Did
you ever see anybody ns proud in your
life U8 were some of those good looking
men In their petticoats nnd other par
nphernnlla? There was ono tall indiv
idual In a sort or glorified bathrobe
red velvet with a puffed border of
purple satin all the way round ami
up and down In front, who wns un
speakably pleased with himself. King
Solomon was meek nnd lowly In com
parison. I don't know wheijjjjihey got
their fashion plates or whose was tho
original taste that suggested red velvet
with purple satin pufllngs nnd a plen
tiful adornment of gold brnld nnd
fringe. It wus a stunning combination,
and yet one can't nssert that It was
so very much more startling than
many of the Impossible hues worn In
Juxtaposition by women. Tho feature
that appeared to the average feminine
oyo wns the apparent attempt nf the
dressmaker to get up those costumes
with ns much variety of color and
style as consistent with somewhat dis
couraging figures not really designed to
show oft a pretty gown.
The Knights either were not blessed
with such slender waists as the
skirt dancers In the recent min
strel show, or else they resorted
less to nrtlllcial methods of Im
proving nature. The gieat dlfllculty
with a man seems to be his hazy Ideas
as to his waist line. Those Knights
on the Poat the other day gave a beau
tiful Illustration of tho masculine In
difference to ono fixed regulation as to
where a cord should be tied to confine
the voluminous folds of their Slowing
gurnicnts.
The man with a white Mother Hub
bard wore his cord well up under
his arms, evidently with the Inten
tion of giving It an Empire ofTect.
One or tho sky blue rcllows dangled his
belt nearer his knees than his elbows.
Another had qultu a fashionable ad
.liutment ol his cord, wearing it well
up In the back and giving It the proper
diop In front Still another had an ex
tra, hitch to his toga, g! lug a classic
al swing which wns rather Impressive.
This had evidently been done for mili
tarism ns It was of the regulation
length for a stvllsh gown and be had
trod on and said miiny things which
women only think when they trend on
their long and silk-lined skirts.
The pinbahle fate of those rulnbow
attired citizens on the tloat ns they
should begin to experience tho Joys of
a pleasure ric'o over tho Washington
avenue pave, was a source of liveliest
anticipation on the part of tho lookeis
tm. The ovpcctatlons were tealisced
with extras. The Noble Grands and
Lord High Executioners and other
Woishlpful Sirs wore a look of sur
prise along with their gorgeous ap
parel when their conveyance blithely
careened into the Hist hole near The
Tribune ofllce. and they all lurched
forward nnd fell on each other's necks
In arlous attitudes of affection. Ap
parently It had not occurred to them
Hint a necessity existed for tying them
selves on. The poses of tho rctl, white
and blue and other bright hued gentle
men on that open platform, as it gaily
careened in nnd out of the pittaUs
could scarcely be termed Delsartean.
Tho hazaids of a golf course and the
dangers of a steeple chase are tame
in comparison to tho excitement of
their Journey. They laid bets on the
probable catastrophe which would
overtake them nt the next cavern, and
jhey clung nervously to each other's
hands like school girls on a toboggan.
There was little to Indicate floating In
the progiess of their portion of the
procession.
b
Said a man the other day: "It does
reem to mo that tho hats are unusual
ly handsome this spring." "Where
havo you been taking notice?" demand
ed his wife, anxiously, "In the shop
window or on womons heads?" Hu
wasn't a man who usually took notlco
of feminine attire. Ills wife might
be arraped In sack cloth and ashes
season after season and the stvle and
cut thereof would be unobserved by
him, but on this occasion he casually
remnrked: "On their heads, to be
suie."
Hut the average man unless he is
blind does take notice of the long
gowns which women trail through thu
streets nawndays and not Infrequently
his attention is accompanied by visible
disgust. "I don't see how thoy can
do It," exclaimed one man to another
yesterday and two women walked up
Spruce street In front of them placidly
dragging handsome skirts without
making the slightest effort to keep
them up out of the tilth. Spruce street
In Its most company condition Is not
exactly such as one would care to carry
home much of its surface ns a souvenir.
Those women were scraping up an ac
cumulation of lllth that looked as If It
might contain all the varltles of evilly
disposed microbes from yellow fever
down. The skirts had a broad, full,
stylish Hare and as scavengers they
did their work well. The pretty silk
linings were rapidly assuming an un
speakable state, but the faultless lit
and swing wns not marred by any
awkward grasp by the fair owners.
"Great Scott," remarked ono of the
men, and then ho said other things.
We certainly are idiots, we women.
We say that never In the wldo world
will we adopt some objectionable style
simply because It Is tho fashion and
we are sincere In our declaration, but
our dearest friend wear a "nose hut"
that Is piquant and charming, as It
deeply shallows her lovely eyes. So
we begin to weaken and finally don a
"nose hut," too, although our nose may
be tip tilted to meet that hat to a de
gree never anticipated by the milliner
In her wildest lllghts of aberration.
Wo say we never, never will wear a
bustle, but when all the other women
of our acquaintance appear with their
gowns well set out In the back, with u
pretty, graceful spilng just below the
belt, we finally succumb nnd probably
buy a bigger and moie generally ex
pansive wire atrocity than Is possessed
by any of our friends.
Wo way say we'll never; no, never,
draggle a long gown through tho hor
i Id streets, and perhaps, wo do brnve
ly trot around In a dicss that possibly
sweeps the ground, but Is neither short
nor long Just a mean "bobby" length
that must bo lifted as crossings and
simply looks out of date and dowdy.
Then we see women trailing their soft,
graceful draperies about their homes,
where a trailing robe Is the Ideal, ar
tistic and truly elegant diess, nnd In
desperation wo have every sown
lengthened and soon reach a pretty
state, when we drag up quantities of
real estate Into our homes and then
loudly lament because so much dust
accumulates, because white skirts nro
a disgrace, because we have eaturrh
and bronchitis and consumption and
other Inconveniences. Ye, wo do.

NERVOUSNESS
IN WOMEN
Everyone Who Has Used Paine's
Celery Compound Praises It.
Every nervous person drags down the
houllh of the other members of the
family nervousness Is contagious.
This season of tho year finds women
tired beyond belief.
Their nerves have suffered. They ure
neither good company for themselves
nor for their friends.
Those who are wise are taking the
most responsible of all spring remedies,
are getting back their nervous vigor,
their proper weight, and healthy color.
Following the advice of eminent physi
cians everywheie, they are taking
Paine's celery compound.
"We are never without Pulne's cel
ery compound In our home," says Mrs.
Hubert Osborn.who figures more promi
nently, perhaps, than any other woman
in the social world of New York city
today. "We believe it to bo the most
wonderful nerve Invlgorator obtainable.
I especially lecommend It to society
women, fatigued by the many demands
of the social season Just closed, and
to tiled and nervous professional men
and women who have yet many weeks
of labor before their vacations. I am
convinced that Paine's celery compound
John Willard
Rafcghf's Work.
The seilousness and the fixity of pur
pose with which John Willard Haught
paints are elements which unite with
his artistic perceptiveness and his de
sire for artistic truth to make certain
an enduring success.
I spent a forenoon recently In Mr.
Ruughfs studio In the Connell build
ing nnd a forenoon of Interest and
education It wns. To my way of
thinking, pictures should be studied a
few at a time In order that the great
est pleasuio and benefit may be ex
tracted. A large and varied exhibition
Is a tax uion the perceptive qualities
which no sensitively organized person
can stand without exhaustion. If one
of my readers can spent! a large por
tion of a day in the Metropolitan
Museum, for instance, without feeling
thoroughly wont out, ho or she should
Immediately go to blncksmlthlng or
cnnvosslng or some other soulful occu
pation. The number of pictures In
Mr. Haught's studio Is not large Just
now, but the quality Is n sufllclent
atonement for tho lack of qunntlty. "A
Morning Promenade In the Park" is a
delightful spring theme. It has been
puichased by John M. Ilobertson, of
Mooslc. It is a symphony In vernal
green, the delicate hue extending and
lending Its tender tone to the charm
ing gill In the foreground.
I would willingly, had I the space,
expend a column in the description of
"The Veiled Fields" and "October
Morning." The ftumer Is most uncon
ventional in its treatment and remark
ably realistic) in its achievement The
subject is that of green fields In the
fog of an early dawn. A deeply rutted
clav road In the foreground seems to
fairly exude its molstuie. At Hist the
effect Is that of fog and of nothing
else, but, as you look, tall poplars dim
ly show through the summer mist, a
peasant's cart Is faintly outlined in tho
distance, and you have n vision of the
veiled and beautiful Ileitis thiough the
opalescent curtain of nature. Mr.
Haught Is at heart u romanticist and
I feel coi tain that he has made this
picture tho expression of inotv than
nitrp paint. The veiled Holds Hint lie
beyond tho life of earth nre, It seems
to me, beautifully typified. The fur
rowed road of life In the foreground,
moistened with teuis and clayed with
ceil, winds through the verduri of
jit-sent Joys. Heyond Is the life to be.
and toward It goes a soul that Is al
most mlst-hldden. Tho trees ami tho
country beyond piomise most fair, but
still It Is the laud of "The Yelled
Fields" and only hu who Is in tho peas
ant's curt can solve Its awful mystery.
"October Morning" shows a hillside
overlooking the town of Auvers-sur-
Olae. An aged shepherd is tending
is by far the best spring remedy a
hard-w'tiiklng person can take."
Mis. Osborn has always been distin
guished In society for the beauty ot her
costumes. No one knows the opinions
and habits of women better than she.
She says that her friends who always
Insist on having thebest.wlll have noth
ing to tlo with any remedy but Paine's
celery compound. And this Is not sur
prising when ono stops to consider the
thousands of letters that are constantly
being received by the proprietors of
thin great remedy, and by newspapers
and medical Journals, as well as fiom
men and women In every walk of life,
all telling one experience: the Immedi
ate relief and perfect cure effected by
It.
The best physicians openly indorse
and lecommend iPalne's celery com
pound, authorizing the public use of
their statements that Paine's celery
compound, In case nfter case, cures
rheumatism and kindred diseases, puri
ties the blood, regulates the stomach,
liver, bowels and kidneys, and rejuven
ates the fagged-out or diseased ner
vous system when everything else
falls.
his Hock beside one of the huge stone
ciosses which the noble sires of a de
generate nice erected In perpetual re
minder of the redemption by blood.
The Olse Is seen In the middle distance
set In Its lovely valley. The mysticism
of "The Vellt-el Fields" Is nlso seen
hero and, like that picture, Its charm
Is one that grows with long acquaint
ance. Mr. Haught has several other French
subjects. "A Bit of Franco" gives us
Auvera-sur-OIse In quite another at
mosphere than that shown In "October
Morning. rhc Itoad to Auvers,"
"A Sunny Morning in Brittany,"
"Morning at Montlgny" and "Auvers-sur-Olse,"
the latter a beautiful water
color, are all splendid examples of the
work of this artist. "The Hillside
Path" and "Hye Beach" uro American
subjects.
Mr. Haught has been represented for
years nt tho Salon. Ills fine picture,
"Tho Banks of the Olse," was hung
on the line at the last Salon. It Is
now in Mr. Robertson's well selected
gallery. Mr. Haught's "The Gorse
Cutters," which was shown at tho
World's Fair and his famous Salon
picture, "The Highway," aro both In
Mr. Hobertson's collection. Mr. Ilob
ertson has thu-e beautiful pictures on
view in Mr. Haught's studio. They
are "The Ilnud to Home," a water
color by Marlottl; "'Palm Sunday in
the Convent," a splendid and elaborate
v. liter color by Turenghl and Haught's
"Tho Road to Auvers." These nro all
for sale.
Most of Mr. Haught's recent woik
has been In the line of portraits. How
well he succeeds In that, those who
will study tho fine portrait of Hev. Dr.
S. C. Logan, which was painted entire
ly ftom life and which Is now In Mr.
Haught's studio, may judgo for them
selves. Mr. Haught leaves Scranton In about
a month. Ho will probably summer In
the artists' colony at Hye Bench and
will then go abroad. Tho breadth and
the development of his art make It Im
perative that he should not remain for
any long ttmo away from tho great
centers of art growth. Ho has made
It his llfework and I know no ono
whoso llfework has been more happily
selected or whoso work Is more faith
ful, moio Intelligent and moro pro
nounced In Its development.

been to tho instrumental. IJotli. while
professional musicians depending upon
their profession for a livelihood, have
freely given their time without com
pensation In many Instances In tho hope
of creating a desire for better music
among the masses. How well they
have succeeded is demonstrated by
the standing of the Symphony orches
tra, the Fanny Mendelssohn society
nnd many other entcrpilses with which
these earnest workers have been Iden
tified. II !l II
The Fanny Mendelssohn chorus, com
posed entirely of ladles, was upon Its
organization looked upon us n species
In tho freak Hue by those unactiualnlcd
with the effects that cun bo produced
by blending of female voices. The
concert of last season was a revelation
to the doubtful and lirmly established
tho ladles chorus as one of the Insti
tutions of the city. The concert on
Thursday evening showed that great
Improvement had been made In the
selection of singers, the strengthening
of the altos giving more evenly bal
anced tone In the ensemble. The work
of the chorus Indicated that the mem
bers have an Intelligent appreciation
of the truly artistic In music an ap
preciation that enabled them to in
terptot the tuneful themes with deli
cacy throughout. It was tho general
vet diet last Thursday night that once
a year Is not often enough for the Fan
ny Mendelssohn concerts.

Much disappointment has been mani
fested owing to the postponement of
tho Symphony orchestra concert. The
concert has been booked for the middle
of next October, with the same soloist,
Evan Williams, as previously an
nounced. II II II
We are glad to note the great success
of Alfred Wooler's popular song, "Mol
lle, I Love You." It Is having a very
large sale. Several professional singers
nre ulready singing it on the stage.
According to press notices, "Mollle, I
Love You," pleases wherever It Is sung.

A new Scotch ballad, entitled "Wait
ing," by Hal Morris and Alfred Wooler,
will shortly be published.
