GOLF HAS begun In earnest. Thcro
will be more playing on the
Country club links during the
next two months than in any
previous year since organization.
Nearly every member, young and old,
t 111 be induced sooner or later to try
a hand at the all-absorbing game. The
reason started In with the mixed hand
icap of last week, when 3. U. Thome
was the winner. Today a Junior and
senior sweepstakes handtrap will be
played, when It Is expected that thcro
will be many entries.
The Interest In the plans for the
summer arc evinced by the many cup
matches arranged. Uesldes the regu
lar cups for tournaments and othrv
prizes, several beautiful and costly
ones arc to be offered. Among these
arc two magnificent cups which Mr.
T. H. Watklns will give to the lady
and gentleman making the best twelve
scores from May 15 to Oct. IS, All
cards are to be taken Into considera
tion and the best average of twelve
will be selected as winner. The ladles
will be a handicap score; the men,
however, will enter a scratch contest.
Besides the regular cups offered by
the greens committee, the governors,
etc.. Messrs. "V. W. Seranton, Henry
nelin. Jr., and T. E. Jones will give
beautiful cups. These aie not" includ
ed In the prizes for the tournament
which will take place abont Oct. 10.
By the way. on the day previous to
that great event theie will be a most
important contest, when the world's
champion, Vardon, whose golf clubs
arc now the fad of the hour, will play
a match with the two eracK golfers
of the Seranton c ountty club.
The greens committee emphasizes the
Importance of handing In cards for
every round of eighteen holes played.
These should be diopped In the box
provided for the purpose In order to
facilitate the work of the handicap
committee.
The eoui.se has been lengthened at
holes seven and nine, and it is prob
able that two others may soon be ex
ten let.. It urn bo confidently predict
ed that the course record of seventy
two now held by J. II. Brooks and
which has been considered as practi
cally impossible to better, will be beat
en this season. Several of the men
are getting Into excellent form. Mr.
James Blair. Jr., defeated V. C. Fuller
and J. H. BrooKs In a practice game
this week. The ladies are also mak
ing fine records. The following sched
ule has been announced:

On the 25th of this month the Coun
try club members will give an enter
tainment which will be the most
unique and interesting affair In its his
tory. It will bo tableaux vlvants of
the Gibson pictures delineating "The
Education of Mr. Pip." Several socie
ty leaders will figure In these pictures
and the event Is anticipated with eag
erness. The Hahnemann hospital fair closed
last night amid general congratula
tions and the greatest merriment and
no one was more pleased at Its un
measured success than wa3 the gentle
hostess herolf, who although Infinitely
wearied by the days of excitement and
domestic chaos in her beautiful home,
was Constantly at hand to lend assist
ance In every possible way. Colonel
arid' Mrs. Boles not only gave up their
house to the interests of the fair, but
also turned over the entire force of
servants nnd also employed extra as
sistants to facilitate the big enter
prise. Colonel Boles was the leading
spirit in the grand finale last night
when the articles remaining were auc
tioned oft with himself as auctioneer.
"WJth a vast crowd at his heels he be
gan In the billiard room, where cigars
were sold at fabulous prices and fol
lowed on from booth to booth wherev
er stock awaited disposal. The re
maining dolls were finally sold for $30
and the goods are to be divided be
tween tho Home for the Friendless
nnd St. Joseph's Foundling Home.
Tho tea room, gay with Japanese
lanterns and made further alluring by
beautiful women in graceful oriental
costume, -was liberally patronized last
night. Mrs. E. L, Fuller, Mrs. W. M.
Dickson, Mrs. E. G. Coursen, Mrs. J.
S. Mott and Miss Belln were on duty
and Miss Augusta Archbald In a love
ly kimono brought from Japan, and
Miss Wilder, of Kochester, also most
picturesquely attired, were among the
assistants. Mrs. Arthur Twltchell and
Miss Boles, In handsome black even
ing gowns, blazing In sequins, presided
m the billiard room, as on the previous
night. Mrs. AW il. Pierce, Mrs. George
lorroyn, Mrs. A. II. Storrs and others
tvero in various booths assisting those
rvho were present on Thursday.
The dining room was most liberally
patronized. It Is a beautiful room,
vlth its superb stained glass, rich pen
ding and soft radiance from many
Ighta set like veiled stars In the cell
ng. At the tables fifty or more per
lohs were seated at one time and were
lerved with an nppetlzlng supper. The
young girls who assisted were: Misses
Elizabeth and Mary DlcKson, Annu Mc
Aniilty, Eleanor Moffat, Ixils Tracy
ind Jessie Connell. Mrs. Milton Blair,
Hrs.C. H.Welles.MrsA.M. Decker, Mrs.
0. S. Oakford, Mrs. Henry Belln, Jr.,
Hrs. E. B. Jormyn and others directed
the work, as on tho previous day.
The feature of the evening was tho
"Electric, Doll Show" given In the
drawing-room. It was the funniest af
fair Imaginable and so dense was the
crowd which tried to seo It that a sec
ond performance had to bo given In
order to satisfy tho patrons. Nine
maidens fair were dressed as rag dolls
with masks and general make-up, giv
ing a most laughable imitation. Mr.
U. E. "Watson was the showman and
In an eloquent learned speech he ex
plained) that, by means of electricity as
applied by 'Edison these Inanlmated
nnd unintelligent creatures could bo
mado to talk and move, which they
proceeded to do as ho touched tho but
ton. They danced, sang, "spoKe pieces"
In . regulation wooden way and, al
jfll
sKs
together, brought the house down, par
ticularly was this done by the "coon
doll" In tho person of Miss Louisa
Smith, who was alleged to derive her
color from the Pennsylvania Coal com
pany. Equally good In several roles
wero Misses Helen Boles, Gertrudo
Coursen (whose song was funny, In
deed), Elizabeth Blair, Huth Arch
bald, Grace Law, Mnrgurctta Belln and
Marjorlo Warren. Miss Belln assisted
In "showing" tho dolls. Miss Anna
Law was also an Instigator of the plot
and Miss Wilder furnished the music.
The conservatories were gorgeous
last night with the luxuriant tropical
plants and brilliance of bloom. It was
such a delightful affair In every re
spect that even with all the work
entailed. It seemed but too brief, as
do many of the fairest things In this
life.
Probably few musical events have

occupied so much time and thought
among people of this region as the
Nordlca concert on Monday night at
Wllkes-Bane. Few such satisfactory
entertainments are heard. There was
no dissenting voice as to its excellence.
It was such a delight to hear Nordlca
at close range, and simply as herself
not in tho armored majesty of
Brunnehllde, not with her loely face
darkened and disguised as Alda, not
even In the slashed velvets and satins
of the Court lady, Valentine. She was
Just the regal Nordlca. who was all
American despite her foreign success
es, who had been the little girl up in
Maine; who had been the struggling
maiden across the seas, who had the
wonderful tribute recorded to her ev
erlasting fame that "there was never
a note sho could not sing and never
a time when she was not ready." Now
far above the little people who had
started with her or who had thought
to surpass her glory, sho stood tho
regal, magnificent woman with a
fortune In her throat .and the lustre of
a rare womanhood on her beautiful
face. How fine she was, how gracious.
How supeibly adorable! She sang so
much for us and there was a tender
smile .about the sweet, sensitive
mouth which seemed to speak her de
light In giving such pleasuie to the
hundreds of listeners who never could
have heard her had she not come to
them thus.
Madame Mantel!) was an unending
delight, too, despite tho fact that she
made too strong a contrast to her
splendid singing mate, because of her
less attractive personality which was
not enhanced by tho fact that her
trunk, as well as Pcrottl's, had gone

astray and that sho was attired In a
tea-gown of Nordlca's, all too ample
for her slight figure. But nh how shu

woman! What a pair of voices! how
gracious they were, those song birds!

May they all live long on the earth
and sing.
By tho way, Nordlca was paid 51,600
for her work that night.
It took a Pennsylvania girl to extin
guish the Insolence of a Parisian
"gentleman" the other day. Tho girl
and onothcr girl sat down at a side
walk table under nn nwnlng to tako
some Iced drinks. This, beforo the
American Invasion, was an unheard
of thing as attempted by women, but
Paris Is getting used to It. Two young
men beheld these girls about to enjoy
tho only substitute for Ice cream soda
and laid wagers as to the celerity
with which the maidens could be rout
ed fiom their position. One went to
the table, made a profound bow and
desired the privilege of bearing them
company. Quick as thought the Penn
sylvania glil dropped two American
pennies In the extended hat and looked
gently sympathetic, as In the feminine
fashion when almsgiving. The girls
were not the ones who left the vicinity.

! HER POINT OF VIEW
01' MAY have noticed It yourself
thai many ladles are wearing
the yoke shirt waists of a sea
son ago. it may also bo ob
sened that they aro not the
faded, dejected looking garments you
naturally expect to see after a sum
mer's expei lence with the wash lady,
and the laundry. Of course, everybody'
knows that the edict of no yokes has
gone forth with regard to shirt waists,
but nevcttheless these yoke affairs ap
pear marvelously fresh and up to date
In material and style. Tho fact Is that
most ladles find the absence of a yoke
across the back a great loss to the
shirt waists. Frequently the material
gives way at the arm-hole and a big
rent Is e-Npoi-Ienced. The yoke gave
the needed tay across the shoulders,
without It gieat strain comes upon the
narow back and the garment does not
wear; and, unllned, it crawls up. Con
sequently, despite the stylo, yoke shirt
waists arc still seen In large numbets.
A lady, whose graco and ease In so
ciety are matked, was discovered by
her husband to be conducting hetselt
In a most unaccountable way the oth
er evening when calh ra were present.
She persisted In locating herself In a
corner, from which she would not
emerge, and while she smiled and
chatted with vivacious Interest. It
might be obsorv i I b one who knew
her very well Indeed, that she was af
flicted with unusual nervousness. She
wore n radiant new silk Milrt waist
and WdS looking at her best, but she
stayed In that corner "lit mly and faced
tho small audience whose attention
was directed chiefly her way. Her
husband, w ho Is a clergyman, whs
mystified by the manner In which f.he
gave a piutlng greeting to the giu.-ts
as they left. She sidled, crab-w ise,

back out of the room, all tho time talk
ing in her wittiest vein, but the vis

method of egress, an it was modeled
much after the fashion employed in
taking leave of royalty.
No rooncr had the outer door closed
than tho head of the houfturned to
his wife and demanded, earnestly:
"WhAt under tho sun wero you trying
to do Just now, and what do you sup
pose Mr. A. thought?" My lady, who
had dropped down In a sleep-hollow
clmlr, with a ansp of utter exhaustion,
sprang to her feet, and as sho turned
slowly round for the Inspection of hor
husband, exclaimed exploslvoly: "What
Mr. A. thought? I'm moro concerned
as to what Mrs. A. thought. I'd llko
to know what she is telling hor frlonds
this minute. v,nat was I trying to
do? Well, thoro, do you see?" As nhn
turned her back, straight and protty
as a girl's, It was her husband's turn
to gasp, for there, from collar to belt,
was a huge silt alt the way down be
tween her shoulders, and showing the
white lining beneath. "That's what
comes by having a shirt waist made
without a yoke," she remarked In a
tone Implying weariness of the world.
"My new silk waist, and such an even
ing as I've spent. I wonder what I've
been talking about," and then, as tho
clergyman laughed loud and long, af
ter the unsympathetic manner of men,
oven though they be ministers, she
continued: "Why didn't I tell them?
Tell Mrs. A? Not while I'm In my
sonscs. I'd rather go backing lound
tho room for life, like a blindfolded
kitten, jw, you men never will un
derstand things." Which was as near
to a reproof as the minister's wlfo
cvor came In her lemarks to her hus
band. What a very small object can ob
scure our sunshine. It doesn't tako a
cloud the slzo of a man's hand. It
doesn't need a cyclone of woe. It
doesn't mean that a thick mist of dis
trust or misunderstanding should rise
between us and the light of Joy. A
faint llttlo frown on a well-loved face,
a. hasty, curt word from lips which
usually smile or utter gentle thoughts,
a fancied look of coldness In tho eyes
of some one wo havo called friend, an
hour of neglect when we long for com
panionship and straightaway our day
is darkened and our sunlight streams
no more.
What a very little annoyance will
tin it over and ever In tho brain and
drive avvny sleop through tho long,
long night. A trifling slight nn lm
aglned hurt to our dignity, a misap
prehension which a word or two might
explain nnd wo arc rcstles-s and un
happy nnd unablo to divert our mind
from the ono Insistent little wretched
ness. Tho big worries, tho mighty bur
dens, tho overwhelming sorrows somo
how we aro given gruce to carry, often

be wise for us to make new vows to
