Show I Saunterings B The western press is again turning the lime- H light on Harry McMillan, formerly Salt Lake H newspaper man, later Goldfleld promoter and H capitalist, and always one of the best of good ' fellows. His engagement to Edna Goodrich pre- H ceding her marriage to Nat Goodwin was the M m subject of international comment, and now it is m said that he is paying much attention to Princess M Kawananakoa in Honolulu. m Mr. McMillan has just returned from Hono- H lulu, having arrived on the Mongolia early in the M week, and upon his arrival he was the recipient M of much badinage as to his reported engagement m to the beautiful widow of Prince David of Hawaii, H The report of his engagement, which started m through liis constant attendance on the charming H hapa-haole, he denied emphatically. He stated M that he stayed at the Moana hotel, where he had ; a good time, and tnough admitting that he was m much in the company of the princess, he says he B knows the family well, is a close friend of B Prince Klhio Kalanianaole, and that it was nat- B ' ural he should return entertainments as much B as possible. fl When asked if he has been engaged to Edna B', Goodrich Goodwin, he replied with his usual for- ml mula, "Not on your life." B It is a twenty to one bet that the story of Mc- B Millan's attentions to the Princess is something B'' concocted by the "yellows," for they have not 1" given McMilan much rest since the Goodrich p affair. jj Mr. and Mrs. George T. Brice have issued in- vitations for the marriage of their daughter, ? Winefred, to Senter Frederick Walker, which will i take place at St. Paul's church at high noon on , Saturday next. This will be one of the important , social events of the week to come and will be 84 attended by a large and fashionable gathering. B ' Miss Brice will be attended by Miss Vera Ed- ( wards as maid of honor, and Morton Cheeseman will be best man for Mr. Walker. B I Mrs. Hugh Walthall entertained at supper at B-' her home at the Fort on Sunday evening. This B is the first affair at the deserted village since Bli the departure of husbands, sweethearts, et al. 1 A dozen of the ladies of the Fort enjoyed the Ht affair. Bl I Under the direction of Morse Moon, a number of the younger girls will appear at tne First 1 Presbyterian church this evening in a series of I living pictures, representing "Some Old Sweet- hearts of Mine." Those who will appear are I Miss Edith Godbe, Miss Gladys McConaughy, Miss H Aileen MacMlllan, Miss Elsie Parsons, Miss Isa- H belle Shiffer, Miss Marguerite Stewart, Miss Rose Evans, Miss Marguerite Richmond, Miss Pearl Savage and Miss Margaret Walden. That was the best looking audience at the Colonial Monday evening that has been seen at a theatre here for many a month. There were any number of theatre parties, iollowed by suppers sup-pers at home or at the Louvre, and the latter presented the most brilliant appearance it has assumed since New Year's eve. The largest affairs of the evening were those given by Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Fabian In honor of Mr. and Mrs. Chapman; Mr. R. W. Sloan In honor of Mrs. Ira O. Rhoades, and Dr. P. Spurck in honor of Miss Winefred Brice and Senter Frederick Walker. Among others who entertained were Mr. and Mrs. E. O. Howard, Mr. and Mrs. A. V. Callaghan, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Houston, Mr. Samuel New-house, New-house, Mr. and Mrs. Benner Smith and Miss Katherlne Judge. The recent delightful weather has tempted so many golfers that the links at the Country Club have presented quite an animated appearance during the last ten days, and the tennis fans are beginning to get their equipment in shape for the courts are to be opened at the very earliest moment. On Saturday and Sunday of last week a large number of members motored to the Club and if the weather man continues his good behavior, the formal opening will take place earlier than had been planned. There will be a meeting of the directors next week to decide upon the opening day and the plans for the spring season, and there is a possibility that a Saturday early in April will be chosen for the real beginning of the spring and summer fest- llvlties. Among the army officers promoted were a number who were popular when stationed with different regiments here. The recent promotions promo-tions Include the advancement to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel of Walter K. Wright and Samuel W. Dunning, who were captains here with the Sixteenth Infantry, and Willis T. May, who left here more recently, being a major in the Fifteenth. At the meeting of the Buskins with the Misses Marshall at their home on Wednesday evening, a humorous sketch was given entitled "An Amateur Ama-teur Triumph" under the direction of Mrs. William Wil-liam H. Cunningham. Miss Mary Marshall and John S. Critchlow were the other troopers assisting assist-ing in the production. At the first semi-annual ceremonial for 1911 held on Wednesday evening, the Mystic Shrine of ' El Kalah Temple conducted eighteen novices across the hot sands, and at the end of their trip sat them down to a feast both joyous and satis; fying. James H. Brown, illustrious potentate for 1911, was assisted in the ceremonies 'by the largest number of Shriners ever gathered at a ceremony of the kind here. At the banquet, which followed, Noble I. J. Goshen was toastmastor, and those responding were Noble Sam C. Park, Noble A. R. Heywood, George E. Merrill and Noble C. W. Morse. Under the direction of -Miss Nora Gleason, the Kearns St. Ann Orphanage entertainment which took place at the Theatre Friday evening, was a beautifully arranged production and was attended at-tended by a large and appreciative audience. (J The efforts of Mr. Spencer and others to raise a ten thousand dollar fund for the Symphony orchestra, or-chestra, are meeting with considerable success, and If the contributions continue as they have begun, be-gun, it should be but a short time until a sufficient suf-ficient amount is raised to thoroughly insure the future of the excellent organization. Everyone who can possibly afford to do so should contribute contrib-ute something in any sum from a dollar up. Of course the hundred dollar contributions are mo3t welcome, but those who are able to give them, in doing so. must not be of the opinion that they are doing anything extraordinary, for during dur-ing the week- twenty-five and fifty-dollar subscriptions sub-scriptions were received from people In only moderate circumstances. The Symphony orchestra must be suppotred, and every Salt Laker should take a pride in doing do-ing his or her part to make it possible to estaD-lish estaD-lish the orchestra on a sound financial basis. , Of Professor McClellan of this city, who recently re-cently gave an organ recital at the Trinity church of Denver, the Republican of that 'city says: From the "Oberon" overture, with which the programme opened, to the "Tanhauser" march and chorus at the close, Prof. John J. McClellan, world-renowned as a pipe organist of the Tabernacle Taber-nacle of Salt Lake City, ran the gamut of human emotions last night In a wonderful organ recital at Trinity church. Something entirely different, therefore doubly welcome, was the exquisite music this "master of the reeds" produced to enchant his hearers. He chose his programme most artistically, with a nice perception as to what would most please the audience, as well as what masterpieces may be best adapted to the Instrument he plays. Following the elfin music of "Oberon" came "The Secret," by Gaudier, arranged for organ by Prof. McClellan. With the beautiful melody he enticed and allured but he still left his listensra in mystery, only to draw them into the most devout de-vout frame of mind with Batiste's reverent "Communion "Com-munion in G." The third of the group wa3 Leonard's "Romanica." ' Then came the heavy D minor fugue of Bach, which gave the organist splendid opportunity to display his marvelous power and versatility.
