Doings of Society FoIKs in Datte and .
As far as large affairs go the week
has been almost barren of results. The
warm weather has made Columbia
Gardens the Mecca for the society peo
ple and nearly every night some one
has given an informal dancing party. '
The birthday party for Carrie Whar
ton was most unique. The formal
opening of. the golf links today is the
event of the week. The house com
mittee, Mesdames J. K. Heslet, F. R.
Pierce. H. N. Turner and Eugene Car
roll will receive the guests this after
noon.
The golf house has been all renovated
and put in order for the coming sea
son. The committee will serve tea to
day and it is expected that all society
will turn out. The tallyho coach will
leave the Silver Bow club every Satur
day and Sunday at 2:30.
The marriage of Mabel Foster to Will
Clark will take place on the 5th of June.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Walker Clark will
be in Butte next week and Senator
Clark shortly before the 1st of June.
A Hawaiian Luau.
The most unique affair given in Butte
this season was the Hawaiian Luau. or
feast, given by Mrs. F. W. Blackford
for Carrie Wharton last Wednesday.
The occasion was Miss Wharton's 12th
birthday. The Blackford residence, 607
West Granite, was beautifully deco
rated in true Hawaiian fashion, in
flower and maile leis.
The table was laid for twelve, two of
the invited guests, Andrew Davis and
Heed McBride not attending. At each
cover was a leis, or wreath of flowers,
and one of the maile. When John
Wharton gave the toast "Aloha" each
guest placed the wreaths around their
necks, Hawaiian style, "Aloha" being
the Kanake salutation, meaning literally
"My love to you."
Inside of each wreath was the nap
kin, fastened with a medallion of Car
rie Wharton, the favor. Fish and poi,
the chief factors in a Hawaiian luau
MISS CHARLOTTE BEST.
were served, the poi being made of rice
instead of taro. When Edgar Wild gave
the toast "Carrie Wharton," the little
guest of honor replied:
Here's to the hopes that we cherish,
Here's to the friends that be,
Long may our friendship flourish,
Pledged in this glass with me.
The cake was a beauty and in it was
a dime, a button and a gold ring. When
the cake was cut John Wharton re
ceived the ring in his slice, Vivian
Evans the dime and Julia Horgan the
button. The scheme of the leis was car
ried out all through the house, the flow
er leis of pansies, geraniums and petu
nias. With these were used beautiful
lilies.
Julia Horgan and Jessie Wharton act
ed as waitresses for the guests in regu
lation waitress attire. They were
dubbed Gretchen and Bridget and so
called all the evening. A brighter band
rf children is seldom gathered together.
The toasts, the jokes and conversation
would have been noteworthy in adults.
A photographer came and took a
picture of the children seated at the ta
ble. The dinner lasted from 5 to 7 and
then for an hour afterwards the chil
dren danced in the upper rooms. The
guests were: Misses Carrie AVharton,
Lillian and Nan Vivian, Hattie Boueh
ei. Retta Bellinger, Ruth Paxson, Drea
Johnstone: Messrs. John Wharton,
Frank Leonard. George Fair, Edgar
Wild, Vivian Evans, Andrew Davis.
«3» ^ IN CLUBDOM. * jt
There was a small attendance at all
the clubs this week owing probably to
the hot weather. The social session of
the Woman's club was well attended,

tickets to pay it.

ANACONDA SOCIETY NOTES.
The Afternoon Euchre club was very
pleasantly entertained by Mrf». L. G.
Smith at her rooms in the Montana
hotel Thursday. The afternoon was
pleasantly spent, and the games thor
oughly enjoyed without the usual in
ducement in the way of prizes hung up
to encourage good playing and a strict
attention to business.
The ladies concluded that so long as
the custom of giving r;,zes to the play
ers with the highest score at their
weekly afternoon games was distasteful
to County Attorney DufTy or any one
else, they would cut them out and show
to Mr. Duffy that the idea that society
club card parties would fall flat with
out the customary rewards or prizes be
ing staked is erroneous.
Clawe8 and Miss Clara McFarland wer.
united In marriage by the Rev. Frederic»
Tonge pastor of the South Butle Pres
byterian church In the pastor's study.

witnesses being present besides the min

good position in the region of Cascade
country and hopes to be there in a short
time.
