Nautilus Club Reception.
While there were not many who kept
"open house" New year's on college
hill, the event of the evening was the
party given by the Nautilus clnb at the
residence of Mr, J. F. Senour, 1341 Dillon
street The pleasant home was decorat
ed with cedar and pink carnation and
many potted plants. Over the mantel was
the club motto on pink back ground
framed in cedar, "We Are One." In the
back parlor was the word "Nautilus,"
framed in the same manner. During the
evening Professor Lovewell made a few
remarks on the object and work of the
club, and read "The Chambered Nauti
lus." This being the birthday of the ho3tes3
and her son, a pleasant surprise was given
her in the form of a beautifully decorated
table, with smilax and fern and pink car
nations, and on it a large birthday cake
with pink decorations. Rev. Charles M.
Sheldon made the presentation, with a
few very happy and witty remarks. In
the dining room was a "Picture Gallery"
which caused no little merriment. Each
guest had brought the youngest picture
of themselves. There were a few which
were taken fifty years ago. Some of the
dignified prof's of Washburn colloge
were there, in their high chairs, taken at
a very tender age, while many of
the younger guests were also there
taken in their bibs and piaafores, rosy
round faced lads and lasses. No names
were given, and each one was expected
to guess the original, which was some
times difficult to do. Refreshments were
served, the last course being "nuts to
crack," in the shape of gilded walnuts
containing "sliced conundrums." The
matchinff of these caused much amuse
ment. There were present Prof, and
Mrs. J. T. Lovewell, Rev. C. M. Sheldon,
Prof, and Mrs. Whitteinore, Rev. Mr.
Farrand, Judge Adams, Dr. Harriet Ad
ams, Miss Adams, Rev. and Mrs. Stewart

Oxford Club Party.
Library hall has never looked prettier
or been more tastefully decorated than
for the New Year's eve party by the
youug society people.
Palms were used a great profusion,
and a pyramid of these graceful plants
was in tne center of the stage screening
the musicians.
From each side above this was a most
artistic draping of smilax and ropes of
Christmas greens which was duplicated
at the entrance.
Smilax and holly were also used pro
fusely everywhere.
The young ladie3 all wore beautiful
new costumes and the party was rarely
beautiful.
The pretty effect was largely due to
the efforts of the young ladies of the
decorating committee who assisted the
officers of the club.
They were Misses Vera Low, Eina
Crane, Lillian Whitelock, Edna More
house, Mabel Knowles, Libbie Hazlett,
Craudthwa.Packard, Berenice McDonald,
Edna McClintock.
The officers are Messrs. Tom King,
Tom Clements, Howard Wood, Dean
Low and Frank Davis.
A crowd of society people from the
Topeka club were guests of the club
and many out of town guests from Atchi
son, Lawrence, Leavenworth, and Chi
cago were present, and the party was a
decided success.
Jap.tuee Tea.
Friday evening about 100 people en
joyed the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs.

a Japanese tea.
Miss Marie Fisher in a pretty Japa
nese gown served dainty refreshments
in the dining room.
In the early par: of the evening a de
lightful musical and literary programme
was rendered, consisting of a piano duet
by Mrs. J. W. Going and Mr. Otis Dalton;

number was the trio by Mrs. S. Hodgins,
Mrs. Going and Mrs. Knowles of Salina.
The decorations were simple, but
everything artistically arranged.
Surprise Party.
A very pleasant surprise party was
planned and carried out on Rev. Mr. and
Sirs. Smith last Wednesday evening.

Leap Yar Party.
Topeka society men learned Friday
evening that they must in the future look
to their laurels as entertainers if they
would keep up with the ladies.
At Wethereli's hall the first real leap
year party of the season was given by a
number of -ladies, Mra. C. 8, Sutton and
Mrs. Irving Doolittie acting as com
mittee on arrangements.
The parlor was tastefully decorated,
and the hall itself with scores of Japan
ese lanterns forming archways over
head looked like fairyland realized.
Lace draperies, sofas, ruga, cushions,
shaded lames, and other house access
ories even to a cozy grate fire made a
moat inviting background for the more
potent charm of animated beauty in the
Mrm of the handsomely gowned ladies
moving about in the dance.
The reception committee of eight
ladies wore their hair powdered.
They were: Mrs. C. S. Sutton gowned
in red and black crepe.
Mrs. Irving Doolittle, in white dotted

MARIE STIDUOLME.
A Stage Favorite Who Is Said to Be tha
Most Beautiful Woman In England.
The present attraction at the Broadway
theater, New York, is ''An Artist's Mod
el," and the most potent magnet of that,
successful production is Miss Marie Stud
holme, who is a.most universally con
coded to be the most beautiful woman In
all England. She was quite popular in
London, but it is safe to assert that she
has received more newspaper notices dur
ing the two weeks she has been in this
country than had ever, been accorded to
her in the whole course of her theatrical
career.
Miss Studholme is a Yorkshire lass. She
was born in a little hamlet known as Bail
don, near Leeds, about 23 years ago. She
was exceptionally pretty even as a child,
MARIE STUDHOLME.
and being possessed of considerable vocal
and histrionic ability it was decided that
sho should bocomo in timo a grand opera
prinfa donna. To that end a thorough
training was considered necessary, and
Miss Studholme accordingly made her de
but in "Dorothy," singing tho rolo of
Lady Betty. Her next London engagement
was in "La Cigalo," in which sho had
only a small part. She suffered from ill
health at about this time and found it
necessary to return to her native village
to recoup.
After a very brief retirement Sliss Stud
holme was lured back to tho British me
tropolis by an offer of the character of the
bride in "Haste to the Wedding" at the
Trafalgar theater. There Iier remarkable
winsomeness of manner was first extond
cdly noticed by the newspapers. An en
gagement in "Betsy" at the Criterion
followed, and again the fair young actress
found it necessary to go home to win back
her health and strength, which have since
never failed hor.
She soon returned to the Shaftesbury
theater, whore "Morocco Bound" was tho
attraction. Hero she enjoyed a positive
triumph, having been successful in no less
than three parts in tho piece those orig
inally assigned to Violet Cameron and
Jennie McNulty besides her otu. The en
terprising and octopian George Edwardes,
recognizing that the little beauty was also
possessed of extraordinary versatility, im
mediately made Miss Studholme an offer
to join his Gaiety company. This was ac
cepted, and than the ''Morocco !Gound"
syndicate made hor a more tempting prop
osition to remain. She would have pre
ferred to stay" wherh-sbo was in the
changed circumstances, but the agreement
had already wn signed, and Misa Stud
holme beca e Miss Gladys Stourton in
"A Gaiety 1" at the Prince of Wales'
theater. Bur success in that rolo was
enormous, and when Mr. Edwardes was
getting together a special company to
sand to the United States, Miss Studholme
is said to have been his very first selection.
His wisdom is demonstrated by tho col
umns of praise devoted to the little Eng
lish artisto by the not infrequently hyper
critical New York theatrical critics.
J. K. Hackett's Capital Acting.
It is not known how Herbert Kelcey re
gards the casting of J. K. Hackett for tho
principal role in "The Home Secretary"
in Daniel Frohraan's production at tho
New York Lyceum, but it is positive that
Mr. Frohman is to bo congratulated on
having put forward this young actor so
speedily in his company. In Sir. Wynd
ham's production of the piece at the Cri
terion in London last summer Mr. Louis
Waller played the part for which Sir. Hack
ett is cast here, and, although Sir. Waller
is considered, together with Sir. Herbert
Waring, pro-eminent in the performance
of villains' roles, thero are a virility and a
precision about Sir. Hackett's performance
of the socialist in "The Homo Secretary"
that place him on a piano with thoao two
older and more experienced actors, and
that indicate that a great deal may be ex
pected from Mr. Hackett.
Canary St Lecturer's Next Production.
In consequence of the continuation of
tho run of "Tho Wizard of the Nile" at
tho Casino, New York city, the mana
gers of the house, are rather perplexed as
to where they will stage their forthcoming
production of tho burlesque, "The Lady
Slavey." According to present arrange
ments, "The Lady Slavey" will bo given
its American production by Canary & Led
orer at tho new Lafayette Squaro theater,
Washington, on Jan. 13, and if it does
not follow "The Wizard of the Nile" at tho
Casino it will bo produced before long at
another New York theater.
Herrmann and Xapoleon,
Herrmann the great is constantly re
ceiving letters from people who want to
know if he is in any way related to the
late Emperor Napoleon III, whom he ro
sembles greatly. Mr. Herrmann has not
that honor. His features resemble those
of the great consul's nephew, but his
face is considerably thinner. When trav
eling on tho continent shortly after the
Franco-German war, Herrmann was often
hissed and sometimes nearly mobbed by
persons who mistook him for the exiled
prince.
Actresses as Authoresses.
There is a fad a3iiong some of our young
actresses to write books. Odette Tyler has
just published a novel; Modjeska will
shortly publish her memoirs; Lotta is pre
paring a series of "Stage Stories." A re
porter recently asked Jessie Bartlett Davis
what she intended to contribute to con
temporary literature. "Oh," said she, "I
have been at work for months on a cook
book. I am an artist with the chafing
dish and love cooking almost as much as
being a cantatrice. "
Fay Texupleton Itesumes Fasting.
Fay Templeton, whose contract with E.
E. Rice for " Kxctdsior, Jr.," called lor the
reduction of her weight to 150 pounds, got
weighed the other day and discovered that
she had gained ten pounds since the first
night of the burlesque. She has gone into

BUMP PEELERS TO MEET.
Phrenologists Planning to Hold a Great
Contention In Chicago. '
Hustling Chicago has had abont every
conceivable sort of couvention except a
phrenological convention, and she re
fuses to he comforted until the repre
sentative "bump feelers" of the country
have met within her widespreading
limits. Chicago phrenologists are much
interested in the convention scheme,
and one of the leading spirits is Mrs.
L. A. Vanght, wife and assistant of Pro
fessor Vanght of the Chicago Institute
of Phrenology. Mrs. Vaught says the
phrenological societies of the United
States are ready to unite with the Eu
ropean association to form a great
world's organization, and that such an
association may be the outcome of tha
proposed convention in Chicago in July
or August.
It is said that in the United States
alone there are 3,000 practicing phrenol
ogists, and that many of them have a
MRS. L. A. VAUGTIT.
following of pupils and alumni. If the
call for a convention meets with a hearty
response from this army, Chicago may
he called upon to welcome a large body
of delegates when the convention is
held. "Our movement is now recog
nized by scientific men as at least being
based on truth, " Mrs. Vaught said re
cently, "and as 'worthy of their atten
tion if not their com ;jjR".a support. I an
ticipate, therefore, widespread interest
in the association and particularly in
its first general meeting. In Chicago
phrenologists are fairly well organized,
but they do not practice iu the same
manner exactly. One of the objects of
the coming couvention will be to thor
oughly discuss the principles of the
business and bring about uniformity of
practice if possible. "
Another large school where this sci
ence is taught is the American Institute
of Phrenology in New York city. This
institution was chartered by the New
York legislature in 1866, and among its
founders were Horace Greeley, A. Oak
ey Hall and Amos Dean. It has one of
the finest collections of skulls and death
masks in the country, and ha3 turned
out over 600 phrenologists, who are ex
amining the cranial eccentricities of
heads all over the world.

GOLD IN ARIZONA.
More Chicago Cnnitnl Invested
in
Mines Scar Prcscott,
Chicago, Jan. 6. More Chicago capi
tal has been invested in mining interests
in Arizona, within fifty miles from the
locality selected by N. K. Fairbank, Mar
shall Field and Lyman J. Gage.
Two mines near Prescott, Ariz., have
been bought by John Mackin,
of this city, and John J. Phil bin.
Jr., also of Chicago. They made
the purchase unconditionally and
outright, Jand intend to join their for
tunes with three other Chicago million
aires, whose interests and capital have
similarly been centered. They decline
to make known the purchase prica.
The mines comprise the Groom Cre8k
srruup, and are 18 miles by wagon road
irotn Prescott. Two tunnels already driv
en into the property show a three foot
vein, running an average, it is said, of
$45 in gold to the ton.
The Congress mine, owned by Chicago
capitalists, develops $60,0u0 a month,
anil Mr. Philbin places an estimate of
$20,000 a month on the yield of the
Groom Creek group.
HURTS OUR FLOUR TRADE.
The McKinley Tariffs aups a Loss of $10,
000,000 a Yar to Millar j.
Chicago, Jan. C The interest of
American millers is centered in the next
meeting of the executive committee of the
National Millers' Trade association to be
hsld here about Jan. 27. Millers gener
ally have practically decided upon a per
sistent agitation for reciprocity with
South American couutries and will make
a determined effort for the rspeul of that
part of the tariff law which thsy tain's
conflicts 'with the flouring interests of
the United States.
B. A. Reckharf, a prominent member
of the association, says tho prospect of
the Cubans gaining thair independence
will have a tendency to promote com
mercial relations between the new re
public and this country.
"The present prohibitive tariff between
America and South American countries,"
ho said, "should be removed, but
we realize that an amendment to
the Wilson law to obtain this desired
relief would not be necessarily grant
ed for one commodity. Others will
doubtless be included. The idea is to
continue agitating until the result is at
tained. Millers do not anticipate airy
relief from the present congress as the
president would veto any such bill. As
long as the present tariff is in effect, it
means a decrease of 4,000,000 barrels of
flour annually ia the export and loss of
$10,000,000 per year to American millers
compared to the benefits by reciprocity
through the McKinley law."

MRS. MAHIQ BUTLEK.
She Married a Country Editor and Mow
BUinos In Washington Society.
Mrs. Marion Butler enjoys the dis
tinction of being the wife of the youn
gest senator in the United States senate.
When sho first met Marion Bntler, a
young country editor and politician in
North Carolina, she little imagined
that she would marry him and that the
youthful but ambitious editor would be
elected to the senate of the United States
before their honeymoon was over. She
did marry him, however; he was elected,
senator t.y the Farmers' Alliance fac-7
tion, and they now reside in a handsome
new house on Q street, Washington, near
the residence of the postmaster general.
Before her marriage Mrs. Bntler was
Miss Florence Faison, and she was born
in Sampson county, tho county that
was also the birthplace of her husband.
She was educated at tho school iu Staun
ton, Va., conducted by Mrs. J. E. B.
Stuart, widow of the faruo'as Confeder-
MRS. MARION BUTLER.
ate cavalry general. When sho met Mat1'
ion Butler, he had been compelled to
abandon his law studies owing to tho
death of his father, and was hard at
work running a country paper and get
ting a living for. a large family of
younger brothers and sisters.
The Faison family was one of the old,
aristocratic families of the state, and '
Miss Faison's parents opposed her mar
riage to Bntler, alleging that his social
position did uot equal that of their
daughter. Miss Florence, however, was
very much in love with her young
Farmers' Alliance knight and refused
to give him up. They were married
about two years and a half ago, and
have one child, a baby about 10 months
old. This baby bears tho very formida
ble name of Pocahontas.
Marion Bntler, as will be recalledv
managed the notable fusion campaign in
North Carolina a little over a year ago.
The Ponnlisrs. under Butler's leadpr-
Bhin. and the Renublicans united, carried
the state and divided the two United
States senator.ships. Butler was elected
to the long term and took his seat in
March, 18S5. He was born May 20, t
1868, and was a United States senator
at the age of 31. Not since the days of
Henry Clay, it is said, has there been
such a youthful member of the upper
branch of congress. Clay had just reach
ed the constitutional age of 30 when he
took his seat in the senate.
