A Lull in Social festivities Prepara tory to a Brilliant Season. The last was a very quiet week in social I circles preparatory to the festivities of the grand season, ami a grand season it will be. It will open with two or three elegant wed dings, and parties and balls will follow rap idly. The "Ryan" is to be dedicated to music and terpsichore within the next month, ami several new and very elegant residences will be thrown open to the re ception of guests before the midwinter holi days. A grand charity ball is on the bills, j and it is expected that a grand fancy dress ball for the benefit of some deserving char ity will be given. Our German citizens are preparing a delightful program for the win ter and will commence it next Sunday night at the Athemem. *** And now comes a new and most sensible proposition.which, if carried out. will afford an abundance of pleasure and an increase of healthfullness among our young people. Mr. E. .1. Snyder, recently with the cele brated riding school of C. W. Dickel&Co. of New York, and the gentleman who at tracted so much attention by his perfect horsemanship as displayed in front of the amphitheater at the state fair, is now in St. Paul endeavoring to interest our people in ; establishing a permanent riding club. Mr. | Snyder comes with the very highest in dorsements as a thorough gentleman and a proficient teacher and trainer. It is his ambition to have a proper building erected and equipped for the purpose, and if this were done it is certain that it would prove more than self-supporting. Equestrianism J is more enduring than the current amuse ments of the day, such as roller skating, and it is always delightful. Mr. Snyder is not only an efficient teacher, but an adept in training and gutting horses. It is to be hoped that he will be sufficiently encour aged to give his time to St. Paul, and es tablish a school such as shall be a credit to the city. *** Little Harold 1) , whose parents had for several years lived next door to Judge Egan, and who has always been a great chum of the judge, lias just begun to go to Sunday school. His mamma has taken great pains to teach him the "golden text" each Sunday, and last week she taught him the following: "And Enoch walked with God, and he was not. for God took him." He repeated it faithfully several times. then went off to play. Before he went to bed his mother asked him to again repeat it. He did so, as follows: "Judge Egan walked with God, and he was not, for God took him." a DKi.inrrrFiTi, reception. The ladies of the House of Hope Presby terian church extended to their recently elected pastor, Rev. Robert Christie, and his wife a reception in the church parlors on last Friday evening. There was a very full attendance on the part of the congrega tion. Invitations were extended to the officers and professors of Hamline and Mac alester colleges, which were generally ac cepted. Among those present we noticed the following, the most of whom were ac companied by their families: Hon. A. Ram- Bey, Rev. Dr. .Will. Rev. Dr. Bridge-man, Gen. R. X. McLaren, 11. K. Taylor. CoL W. 11. H. Taylor. John Ogden, 11. M. Knox, 1). R. Noyes, 11. S.Johnson,Samuel Dawson, Gen. R. W. Johnson, Col. R. M. Newport, 11. L. Williams, J. S. Robertson, W. I!. Dean. E. S. Rogers, Lewis Baker, 11. L. Moss, Geo. 11. Moffett, T. C. Field, T. C. Jones. 11. A. Boardinan, John Mc- Donald, G. O. Robertson, D. A. Monfort, Thomas Cochran, Jr., C. A. Morris, 11. J. Horn, W. L. Banning, C. 11. Bigelow, 11. R. Bigelow, and many others. Intact, the night being favorable, nearly all of the congregation were there to pay their respects to the new pastor and his estimable wife. Dr. Christie was graduated from Miami university of Ohio. He then prosecuted his theological studies in the Danville, Ky., seminary, after which I.; graduated from the Theological seminary at Princeton. X. J. His first charge was at Shelbyville, Ky., from which he was called to Lexing ton, Ky., and on the retirement of Rev. ] Dr. E. P. Humphrey, a unanimous call was extended to him to become the pastor of the College street church in Louisville. This call he accepted and remained with that church for six years. Last spring a unanimous call was made on him to become the pastor of the House of Hope, which he accepted and entered upon his charge the first Sabbath of this present month. The cordiality of the reception ex tended to him shows very conclusively that lie and the congregation are mutually pleased with each other and that the har mony and good feeling which have ever prevailed in the House of Hope are to be maintained and continued under his minis tration. A pleasant incident connected with this reception was the presence of Mrs. D. R. Breed, the wife of the former pastor. Dr. Breed and his family have a warm place in the hearts and affections of the people of this church, over which he presided for so many years. A si-, pAUIi MINISTER ENTRAPPED. "The wide-open policy" pursued in St. Paul is proving detrimental to society in many ways. It is certainly inviting to our city thugs and gamblers from various sec tions of the country. Last July, while the Rev. L. Lane, pastor of the Christian church, was on his vacation in lowa, his home was entered and robbed of most of his silver tableware, besides other articles. Mr. Lane, a few. weeks since, removed to his new residence at Union Park, and Friday night, while waiting at the Merriam depot for his family physician. Dr. Clara E. At kinson, who was expected from St. Paul on the train with another party for a friendly visit, he was suddenly surrounded in the dusk of the evening by several persons, and being in delicate health, he could make no resistance, but was compelled to go to his home and unlock the doors and let them in. Mrs. Lane was so overcome that she did not think to arouse the neighbors, and so they were left at the mercy of the in truders. The police, as is often the case when most needed, were not on hand. Mr. Lane Bought to recognize the parties, and soon discovered that they were simply friends from the churches of his denomina tion in St. Paul and Minneapolis, who had planned a surprise for them in their new home. The Minneapolis delegation was headed by Rev. Enos Campbell and wife, who.were accompanied by a number of other persons. The St. Paul friends were represented by Dr. Atkinson. Prof. W. A. Faddis.G. S. Fawkner, A. S. Knapp, J. W. Donaldson, Lowell Pierce, Simon Winshrp, including their families and other friends. After the social festivities Mr. Campbell conducted appropriate religious exercises and Mr. Lane returned thanks to the friends for the pleasant surprise. The parties left at a late hour, leaving behind them many valuable and substantial presents. THE GAYETY.

Boughton of Prescott, Wis., which took place at the residence of the bride's parents last Mon day evening, was a charming affair. The ceremony was performed !>y Rev. W. T.

Mr. Norman Wright, who returned last Friday fjoni a canoe trip to Dubuque, has written a letter to the Minnesota Boat club, asking them to reconsider their action by which he and Dr. Schiffman were re quested to resign from the club. He feels that the verdict was reached under a misunderstanding, that Mr. Schiff man had been treated unfairly and that neither should be subjected to such arbi trary action as was taken. He is willing to stand by his record for integrity and to defend himself and his colleague from in tentional wrong doing. Mrs. Wagner and daughter, Miss Helen Warner, are guests at the Cinremlon.

The Secret of Death, by Arnold, and The Vagabond, by Trowbridge, at the Atheimeum Thursday I evening. The great success with which Prof. Ev ans conducted his dancing classes in Sher man hall last season, gives prospects of a repetition this season as on tlie two open ing nights his classes were well attended.

Mr. Wiliam Collins, who. has been the Northwestern correspondent of several New York papers for the past year, will leave the city to-day for Olean. N.Y., where he will engage in mercantile business.

A Discovery 'IJ'liut Will Revolution ize Society* I have just met a young society gentle man who confesses that the one thing that enables him to keep up his spirits while ac quiring the tiresome profession thrust upon him by the exigencies of life is the firm conviction that the prejudices of society are undergoing a thorough and complete trans formation. He rinds that the work of the world is fast passing into the hands of the i supposedly weaker sex. (Toung society gentlemen as a rule are not in the habit of making brilliant discoveries, but the mind of this youth is rather above the average.) He notes that the high schools and colleges are filled with girls, not boys. He observes that many young women are going from the common schools into schools of special training, and that the majority of girls are now brought up to regard life as a serious matter, and taught to engage actively in the never-ending struggle for existence. He sees the arts, the professions, the trades, all fields of labor being invaded by hosts of dauntless individuals who don't even wear their petticoats divided, and lie really knows of more independent, self-supporting girls than boys. And so, as the result of careful investigation and serious thought, he con cludes that the position of the sexes will soon be reversed, and that in the course of a few years women will become bread-win ners while the men will comfortably stop at home and, freed at last from nil care and anxiety, devote their time to careless gayety and the acquirement of elegant accomplish ments. My young friend fully realizes, so lie says, that he may never be directly bene fited by these changes in opinions and methods, and that he will probably have to keep on in the old tame and tedious ruts. But he is not merely inter ested in his own personal concerns; as I said before, his mind is of a superior order; he feels the wrongs of his sex as his own. and the thoughts of the glorious future that he sees stretching out before the race fill his soul with delight, and serve to ren der present hardships endurable. *** Just think of it. young men! You who are joyfully assuring yourselves that the heated term is at last over, and racKing your brains to decide whether or not the intro duction of ice-cream soda is to be approved as a measure of economy! No more need on seek to discover whether the woman of the future will or will not eat ice cream, for it will not in the least matter. The woman of the future is to be more than self-supporting, and if she wants ice cream, she will not only buy it and pay for it, but will also invite you to aid her in . its con sumption, bless your hearts! ***■ And yet, correct as my acquaintance may be in his conclusions, I greatly fear that if he is but one of a class, and if the boys as a general thing are buoyin? themselves up with these fair hopes, somebody will get badly left. Careful statistics show that the women who can live comfortably on the re sults of their own exertions are not marry ing women: and it may happen, as a result of this readjustment of labor, that the man of the future who may desire to take unto himself a wife will have to offer the woman he wishes to honor greater inducements than he can at present bring forward. In those halcyon days, remember, choice will not lie between a husband and a country school. *** 1 • Though 1 have to acknowledge (I hate to do it) that I do know of one female who wished to obtain a government clerkship, because she thought that position would en able her to successfully conduct a matri monial campaign. *** But to change the subject, which grows painful, the striped goods that must be combined with the plain fabric in your most stylish fall suit may appear as a skirt with a plain overdress, or you may have a plain skirt with an overdress of the striped stuff, though the former . arrangement of the stripes themselves, which, if the wearer be tall, may run horizontally, while a short woman may apparently add several inches to her stature by the skillful use of perpen dicular stripes. *** I suppose wild horses couldn't drag from a girl any statement implying that she had not had a perfectly delightfully lovely time during the past summer; that every body was not just too awfully nice for any j thing, and that the invitations would not have kept her visiting, if she had accepted, till long after Christmas. "Sand" is the j only word that expresses her chief mental j characteristic, and that expression is weak; for "sand" read "rock." She may have yawned away the season at some idiotic re sort, where the proportion of men to wo men was as one to ten, and the most excit ing employment the knitting of silken socks on the hotel piazzas; she may have been the j center of a brilliant throng, and her propos als may outnumber the sands of the sea. You will never be able to guess, from her manner, which supposition is correct. v-.; •■" ■ *** Of all the weary and forlorn objects upon the streets at the present writing, the most heart-breaking in its expression of utter ab jectness and despair, is the cambric neck tie. Even the straw hat cannot hold a candle to it. \ o-V; : :;: ■ .-;■••*** . . We girls who belong to the upper crust, you know, have entirely discarded the leather satchels that we formerly found such a convenience inshopping. They were getting too dreadfully ordinary. For a time we were enabled to discriminate by the use of alligator skin, silver mounted; but pig skin, nickel plated, was too much for us. We have now re turned to the satin work-bags, embroidered or hand-painted, which serve the double purpose of distinguishing us from the com mon crowd, and nearly driving all clerks with whom we deal to the verge of desper ation, as we never can find our pocket books without a thorough overhauling of everything the bags contain. *** If you are unable to obtain the new woolen ribbons for. your autumn hat, any old breadths of stair carpeting that may be lying around the house will answer the pur pose; in color, texture and width there is but little difference. Lady Rambler. Hudson. Messrs. Payton and Bennie Goss, Cully Jones, Port Carver and Will Phillips and Misses Jennie Burton, Etta Clapp, Maud Helt, Tennie Dinsmore and Camelia G.
