To a large Ii number of his friends, this will come in the nature of a grsat surprise, but there are a number who r ') were allowed to share the secret before he de- jHi yY Parted for the east, and that they kept it In con- Hf j M' ; fldence is proven by this. B l Within" a few days he will marry Mrs. Anni B A't Adams of this city, who is at present at the Na- E : Jill tlonal Capital, and after a wodding trip extending mm Ii ' through the eastern states, they will return to illl make their home in this city. Hi jll '' Mrs. Adams is prominently identified with many H( III of the women's clubs in this city, and is a very HP III prominent and cultured woman. B!

H I L No wonder the Examiner is noted for its ex- jH i II;! elusive news. The fact that tire Wallace Brans- H I lit fords were married some months ago, makes no H j I H jj such a difference to the motor editor of that jour- Hr I I naL Hii I I $ je j Hi Ifl An impossible boor, who was allowed to dis- Hg 111 tingulsh himself at the session of -the third house Hi J I 'at the Elks' club on Wednesday evening, was the Hi I I only person to depart from the fun indulged in by Hi 111 most of the speakers, leaving a blot on the Hi ' I I proceedings of the evening, which without his Hp Iff vulgarisms, would have been all that auch an en- fln I I tertainment could have been. BBj ill There could have been no excuse for his be- IK j I havior, had it been his first offense, but he is a ra- Bf ; I I peater, and his work is extremely coarse. Men j jll in the public eye expect to be made fun of when H J I ny set of good fellows get together for that pur- HB I I pose, but they do not clamor for admission to a Hi 1 I , gathering where some egotistical ass is going to BR I I insult them in a language couche. in the patois of BBE J I ?i the gutter snipe. And the funny part of it is that HKj Ifl His Royal Importance has been admitted to a f J I f couple of clubs, and has aspirations for admission H HI to the more exclusive, but it would be a fine idea RE : I I or m to 'ceeP those aspirations for another town, Bg IB I for he couldn't pry open the back door of another H Hi I club with one of his diamond drills.

Madam Melba, with her son, and Signorina SassH, with h$r mother, occupied the McCornick-Peery box, ano seemed to wear the new honor gracefully. She wag in much pink, and looked the picture of health and happiness, but apparently enjoyed the family party given by her friend, Mrs. Newhouse, more than Mr. Moore's "The More I See of Other Girls the Better I Like "Yfcu," or "The Efabit I never Had" warbled in George Van's most appealing contralto. And where was the usher who dared to invite the ladies to remove their hats? Not in the theater the-ater Thursday night. J? , J8 There was a heap of sport in that audience, and more of it was paused by the fashionable drunkards who sat a few rows back in the dress circle than any one else, unless perhaps by another of their kind who sat on a loftier roost, Certainly Cer-tainly these gentlemen were fine feed for the tabbies tab-bies who are busy with them already. You know the town is small. V W f The most gorgeous dinner of the week was that given by Clarence McCornick at the Country club on Thursday evening, in honor of Miss Marks of Butte. A dozen friends enjoyed the event, which was truly remarkable in its appointments considering consid-ering that the month is January, and that the dinner din-ner took place at the Country club. Masses of American Beauties were used in the decorations, and the first spring flowers, lillies of the valley, and violets, and tulips were arranged to heighten the effect. The Country club is really the right idea for an exclusive dinner. It is as many times removed re-moved from the madding throng as a flfty-second Kentucky cousin. w & J The Assembly is the big event of the week to come with a dozen little dinners beforehand to make, well some of the guests merry. It will be a greater success than anticipated, and there is a great clamor for eleventh hour invitations, now that the list has been exhausted. Two hundred and fifty people are expected. 3t & & The Ranters Dramatic society will present "The Arabian Nights" on Monday evening, providing the friends they have invited to witness the performance will .allow them to "go on with the dance." Later the performers, and the stage hands will be entertained at supper by the Misses Miller. Mil-ler. There is some talk of making the society permanent, per-manent, and doing who what they can for charity. As the eld soa lioness and her bark are still at one 1 of the moat prominent hostelrles, Insulting guests, 1 tearing up carpets, contributing greatly to the 9 English language, and scaring the little ones. 1 Isn't there a quarantine law hiding away some- I where that will fit her case? There should surely I bo an amendment to the bounty law, so she would I I not be overlooked in the next open season. j & , Since The Tribune's announcement on Monday Mon-day that "parts of the 'Bohemian Girl' were es pecially good" an Interview has been had with the i little lady, and she states that she thinks she will have entirely reformed by another week. tS I James A. Pollock, Causten Brown, and 0. P. Adams the Pickwick system, wo fit the hard to fit, appeared in a one-mile walking match on Brig-bam Brig-bam street yesterday morning. Owing to a handi-cap, handi-cap, Adams was allowed to go-as-you-please, but fell out at First South and Main on account of a hot box. The construction car of tho Utah Light & Railway Co. was 'phoned for, and upon arriving towed him to his destination, where he underwent repairs and was in service again in about four hours. Pollock won the race. & & The pianoforte recital to be given by Master Henry Oberndorfer, the pupil of Miss Gratia Flanders, Flan-ders, on Monday evening at the First Congregational Congrega-tional Church, assisted by Miss Marian Oberndorfer, Obern-dorfer, and Miss Romania Hyde, promises to be a most artistic event. A large number or the friends of the young people have been invited: V v v ) 1 musicale given by the pupils of Mrs. Agnes I OsbL.'ne on Monday evening was a most enjoyable event v C?V lv Mrs. A. H.
