It has been a Ion; and fray xuoa Ever since tbe first grand reception In honor of Miss Libbys marriage to the closing gayetie when Miss Dun lap became Mr a. Payne, the days and the evening have been crowded with all forma of social enjoyment and delight. One reform moat be noted which Uaa been very apparent In Chicago's best society this season. This is the very general adoption of early hotira for parties and receptions. In nearly every case the cards of invitation have stated in explicit terms the hoar desired for the guests' departure as well as their reception.

Not only has this fashion prevailed for ladies' receptions, which have been very numerous this year, bat for general receptions as well, and some of the most inccw tul large portieo of the winter hare bwn lb one where the guests were entertained "from 4 to or "from 5 to IO," as stated in tbe invitation. Sogenerol has this custom become that even when the hoars of the reception were not stated, guests have not feared to arrive as early as 8 o'clock, nor have they hesitated In bidding adienx to tbeir hostess before tbe magic boor of midn'ght. HTurs HtrarLT mttt. There have been an unusual number of weddings this winter, and tbe Chicago dame, who is i wn sister to Mm Grand and who knows all about these things, says that she is perfectly surprised at tbe nam ber. She is confident that next season cannot surpass but in the number and brilliancy of marriage receptions.

Hat the lmpreiion mast by no means bo given that there have been only wedding parties in Chicago, numerous as these have been. Xho drama of social life in the city has been a masmitieeut one, and though brides have leen the "leading ladies." most creditable and charming roiea have been aa-snined by ladies who are mistresses of the city's most elegsnt homes.

A lady correspondent, who ought to know, writes from New York to say that red-beaded girls are all tbe rage Those who hare fiery beads by nature now account themselves lucky. Lemon blondes hsve lost their grip, and block heads join them in envying tbe reda Red hair is attainable, but with considerable trouble, for bleachtng must be followed by dvelnsr, and the process requires frequent repetition. Moreover, the peculiar complexion that usually accompanies red hair cannot be simulated.

It has a clear, pallid hue for a groundwork (and this might lr itself be counterfeited), Dat on it appear pale, reddish freckles, aud to paint them in would be too delicate an operation to undertake Red hair is becoming common on the street and in public assemblacea. but the real is so easily distinguished from the false that the fashion is not likely to lat long. In tbe matter of hairdressing, while It la no longer correct to wear tbe hair hlsrh on the head, and in voluminous puffs, braids, aud frizzes, as was fashionable only a year ago. It is nevertheless evident that tbe close, Mat style of coiffure is going oat of date Curls ana loops are added from week to week, and irradually we are returning to the elaborate style of hslrdreasinr. which is really the only one suitable for the complicated details of the general toilet of to-day.

When done in red hair, tbe fussiness is effective Women with red hair are railed "rossas." When attired with taste, they are bewitching If they have fine complexions, good features, animated and intelligent countenances, and eves blue, gray, dark brown, or bronze-tinted. They should dress In either very dork or very'llght colors. Grays, drabs, yellows, bright blue, bright green, mauve, luao, and rose do not become them. They may wisely wear btacx, dark blue, dark violet, pearl, and cream white, water blue, and the palest tints of Nile green. A SHALL GERMAN.

To the occupant of an average-sized or small city or ooontry house, anxious to have the reputation of entertaining pleasantly, nothing la superior to the small germ an. It affords opportunity for delightful conversation; for the bringing together of people In an informal, easy way; for dancing to delightful musio on a comparatively clear floor, and for giving to each guest an equal share In the enjoyment ot the evening. Tbe method of procedure in a-lvlng a smaU german is an exoeedingly simple one Send out written invitations about two weeks before hand, bearing in tbe corner tbe word "Cotillion, Cover your parlor or oarlors with crash, which should be tijrhtlv and care fully stretched. Remove all furniture from the room, except a small tablo for the favors. ana piece loiaeu camp cnairs along the walls for the use of tbe guests when danclnir be gins.

Select a careful leader one who la experienced and understands the necessity of simple figures. Engage a good pianist, and. if you wish, a violinist In addition. Procure simple favors, they may be cheap or expensive; but avoid display in this particular. Have a well-served supper, with wine or not, as you prefer; but havo bouillon ana lemonade in any event.

Following these plain directions, and the eventful evening having arrived, nave a few clancea beforehand; but as soon as possible commence the german. vtatcn carefully to see if any irirls are un provided with favors or partners, and ask your particular friends to remedy the omission; and see that waltzes are nlaved for tbe iljrnres, or. perhaps, a raion now" and then. with a polka at tbe close. You will, we predict, at the evening's end, agree with us as to the mcnta of the "small german.

1880. Gifted and Beautiful Beating. Gall Hamilton makes her home with Senator Blaine during tbe winter, but spends ber summers in a charming old farm-house, formerly her father's. Building on a porch, aha has secured a large hall, and in addition to other airy 'topper chambers," a delightful open room above for books and work and sunshine. Down stain, on one side of the ball, is a room filled with tbe library left her by George Wood(Poter Schamvl in America), and on the other aide, beyond tbe parlor.

Is as perfect a little dlulntr-'room as possible, with crimson walls and black-walnut wnlnseot Here the engraved glass and silver and china are auitless, as all who sit down at that table are obliged to confess that tbe housekeeping is aisa The following is a pen picture of the Baroness Burdett-Coutts: "She is tall and graceful, and has dork brown hair and hazel eyes. Her energy and vitality are extraordinary, and when she is well she defeats ber age by a dozen years. Her bauds are very small and delicate, and have been modeled as specimens of perfect beauty. She usually dresses In dork velvet or silk of a well-chosen and subdued color. She wears no head-dress In the morning, but in the evening she is to be seen in an Angot cap.

She has an abundance of most rare and costly Jewelry, bat she rarely makes any display of It on her person Occasionally she wears a tiger's claw, richly set, as a pendant to the gold chain round her neck. It was presented to tbe Baroness by Sir Garnet Wolseley, and she values It highly. The Baroness is a good horsewoman, and is fond of exercise, and she walks with an elasticity that many a younger woman might envy. At a concert at the Conservatoire Christine Nilstoo made quite a sensation. She wore a magnificent beaver pelisse, trimmed with Kusnan sable, and fastened by an Immense diamond clasp; her headgear was a lace beaver toque, with tassels at the side, above which gliHttrned a diamond agraffe When the peliase was removed the plainest of brown clotu dresses was risible; It was trimmed with narrow silver braid on the Isrjre flat collar, pointed epaulettes and rerers on sleeves.

The collar was fastened wltb abut-terUy that bad closed wings, and was made entirely of diamonds and pearls: her ear-rings were masrnifioent soltaires. Tbe costume was reusse, an we say here. Mmft Hubert, the painter's wife, sat next Mme. Nllsson, and wore a black beaver Kc in brand hat trimmed with feathers, aud a black velvet dress, with colored Jet on the phvitron, cuffs, and collar. FASHION NOTES.

Plaid materials are still quite a furor and their reign may perhaps prove a long one Maroon and dark green grounds ore preferred. New skirls are made of Madra plaids; there is forester's plaid, sailor's plaid, 1 aimer's plaid, highland plaid, and the favorite shepherd's plaid. For a dinner party an elegant toilet is of merreiileux satin of two shades of hello-trope, tninmed with white lace; trained skirt with flutinz at foot; "second skirt forming a double drap-rr. Two lace flounces placed In tbe middle at the foot of tbe former. Loug-waisted bodice, open in front, with long- lace jabot: semi-long sleeves of lace.

A dressy costume is a skirt and Louis XIII coat-bodice of gold-brown Louisine silk, trimmed with velvet ribbed braid of tison tint Silk cords and tassels remain In favor as a finishing ornament for all sorts of dresses. A Visiting- dress is of iron-gray Indian cashmere, trimmed with deep red satin; panel polonaise faced with the satin; long sleeves, with deep rovers trimmed with a pleated sore of luu satin. The Dufrane pelisse is a favorite style of mantle. It is of Lyons satin, lined with quilted satin and trimmed with rich black pas Garnet, bronze, and carmelite color are much used in walking skirts. Crocuses and pansies, forget-me-nots and poppies ot satiu ore worn with muslin as well as wltb more dressy toilets.

A pretty cloth for a lunch table is of white damask, with flower border worked in embroidery and edged with ecru Tochou lace A dress for a little girl is of light blue cashmere, with gathered plastron, and sash of silk of the same color. A pretty morning cap Is of ivory-colored Indian luaslin, trimmed with Br tonne lace and torquoise ribbou. A pretty walkiug-dress for a little girl ot 10 is of parl-gray Umntzur cashmere, trimme 1 with bauds of dark ruby plush, the trout of the skirt trimmed three rows of kilting. Evening dresses are very prettily made up in a combination of Indiau muslin and satin, with a profusion of ribbon bows. Silk gauze spaugled Is a favorite material to combine with satins.

White toilets are considered in best taste for evening wear. "Fire-color" and "pheasants' breast" are the names of two tie shades of orange and red. A becoming walking dress is of two shades ot oiive-green, made with scarf tame, and finished with a pointed hood. Coiffures a la Diana de Poltrers, which mean colled high, are now more favored for dressy occasions. A dinner dress is ot lilac nun's cloth relieved with facings, bias folds, and flounces of panther-spotted silk bordered by lace.

The Northern Paciflo Railway Company has not pretended to run Its trains on regular time beyond Bismarck the present winter, and persons going West have found the stage line preferable to an Irregular freight train that might land them at some indefinite point In the wilderness. Tbe stage in tbe winter consists of a kind of a bob-sled with backboard, which rarely aooommodates more than one passenger, after allowing ample space for the driver and bis buffalo overcoat and robes and Uncle Sam's mall "All aboard! Three hundred and fifteen miles to Miles City!" is the cry, and the traveler "Westward ho" looks to bis weapons of defense conveniently strapped around his body, fastens himself tightly to his backboard, and Is off. Small pistols or revolvers are at a discount, and tbe "little pills" that they shoot are regarded with the utmost derision. The large 44 revolver is the most popular. This carries the same sized cartridges as a 73 model Winchester.

There may be nothing more exciting to shoot at than a oaaaliur lack rabbit. and even this animal will, perhaps, cause the bringing lorwara or your Sharp's rifle, and if tne anver be old and experienced in pral rie ahootlnr. he can bring the rabbit down while we are continuing our drive A TXXPEB roOT. Forty or more coyotes behind a back board which bad for its passenrer an Englishman, who was unused to the ways of "this blsrsted country, you knaw," produced consiaeraoie palpitation ot tne neart on the part of the stronger, a few nights aga The way was across the snow-clad prairie, with not a sItu of human habitation for many miles The Briton was wholly unarmed, and naa thereby attracted some attention from the staee men when be left Bismarck for the West The driver had his usual outfit. which included a ron warranted to kail at anv reasonable number of paces.

The wolves howled and seemed to make a nearer approach to the "devoted" occaoants of the buck board, the moon meanwhile looking down on the scene in very solemn like fashion. The driver had faced many nocks of coyotes before and wasn't scared, but it delighted htm to keep this fact to him self, in order to let the Englishman suffer. "I-l i-e th-tbere a-a-ny d-'nger?" grasped the Britisher, as the wo! res gare forth a specially loud bowl- Oh. replied the driver, "they fre quently attack the siedx, and it'll be a dear scramble for your life if this pack comes on. But let's see if tbe mules can't get away from thorn." soarrwHAT ALASrrrx The Enirllshman's teeth chattered, he prayed loudly for deliverance, and with the same breath cursed his "blarsted luck" that had enticed him to this "blsrsted country." The'driver made tbe males dance at a lively gait, but the wolves kept pace with them, and the stranj-er gave up all prospect of ever seelnir Old England arain.

especial It when this pack was reinforced from tbe front by others; but a side diversion in the shspe of a frozen carcass on the prairie attracted all away from the sled, and the foreigner st length breathed freely. There Is sometimes serious danger from packs of these wolves, but tho driver knew their temper In this case and was not afraid. More courageous than the Englishman was an American woman, young and handsome, who crossed the plains ot the Northwest, from Bismarck to Miles City, short time ss-o. and carried shoot her person from 13.000 to in greenbacks. The drivers all talked about her capttrating wars and fearlessness, but I did not learn her history.

Tbe Englishman had a ereat deal of trouble to obtain a wink of sleep beneath the buffalo robes and Mackinaw blankets in the "snacks," on rough and generally nil 00 red station bulldintrs along the route, bat the American damsel seemed to take things as she found them without worry, and slept the repose of the innocent. The "shacks" are provided with bunks for the weary traveler, but if the traveler is experienced be will refrain from sleeping on them, as be may become Infected with "crumbs," or lice. The best outfit for prairie travelinc in this country consists of a pair of Mackinaw blankets, rubber blanker, and a couple of buffalo robes. Without the rubber there would be serious dancer of contract-ins- rheumatism in lying en the ground at night, as the warmth of the body is apt to thaw a space which remains very damp. Resting on a buffalo robe on top of the rubber, however, one can feel perfectly safe from affected limbs.

nix srscoarroBTS or STAorxo. The distance between the stage company's ranches is from seventeen to twenty-three miles, according to the nature of the road. Some days the progress is slow and only one stage, as the spaoe between the ranches is called, will be made. Usually, howerer. the backboard trarela three atasres during the hours ot daylight Tbe 42.

50 fare for one person between Bismarck and Miles City includes provisions, which consist mainly of bacon, bread, and coffee served with sugar. Frequently a piece of antelope will vary tbe monotony, but the staire company does not feel able to be lavish with luxuries, and pie, cake, milk, are dispensed with, when the ranch keeper sees afar off on the prairie tbe approaching stage he Immediately besrina to rry. his bacon, and when the trareler and driver enter the "shack" there ts their meal smoking bot ready for tbem. There are thirty minutes allowed for each meal and tbe baoon Is served promptly on arrival at every ranch, whether there are one or fonr stsges made each day. If a man is going west from Bismarck, 'I would ad rue him to take a good sized bag of substantial food along with him to aid In satisfying an appetite that will regard four SAXCB PIXUKK as scarcely equal to on square meal such as an Eastern man la accustomed to.

It might be suggestea that can of Boston baked beans would be found especially comforting to the Inner lining ot tbe stomach. Plenty ot good cigars will sot be out of place in gaining tbe good will of the drivers and ranchmen, and if a man la generous and travels with eyes his and ears can gain a return from the stage employe fa more rapid driving, alightly improved accommodations, and the recital of a fund of interesting stories about the country and It peculiarities. Most of the driver are American born, and nearly all of them enjoy taking a "smile," even better than- smoking. They call sixty mile a day's drive. Unhitch the mules or horses from the stage, and leaving the latter with it mail-bairs standing outside, after the last ranch on tho day's route has been reached, they enter the "hack," swallow their bacon, and after a season of cards or yarns, go to sleep.

If a blizzard comes while the stage journey Is being made, the driver uses the utmost effort to gain tbe nearest ranch, where he can remain until It passe over. If so sever that there is no other alternative, he turns his sled over on the prairie, and crouching underneath, with a plentiful supply of rubber blanket and buffalo robes. Is well fixed for a longer or shorter period, according to his supply of provisions, eta The driver are honest, as the Western world goes, but some would not hesitate, I am told, to appropriate a nice buffalo if it wa handy, ran aoxTuxxK ricrno UCTL Contrary tQ the ideas of many, the stage route does not follow the Northern Paciflo Railroad Line- between Mile City and Bismarck. The two are twenty-three miles apart at th little Missouri River, at several points between tho Little Missouri and Bismarck they cross, bat at other places they are a considerable distance from each other. This section of the railroad la laid with curves to avoid cuts, unlike that part of th line in Eastern Dakota and Northern Minnesota, where there are long stretches of straight track, thze bean- on seoUoa of sixty roll Kortb- west from Glyndon, perfectly uniform, since building the straight line of track It ha been found that carve to avoid a alight out, even if considerably out of th way, is a plain advantage on account ot th snow drifting In every excavation.

Th name of the stag ranches between Bismarck and Miles City are: Heart River, The Muddy, Spring Ranch, Young Man' Butte, Green River, Ploughed Ground, Antelope, Beaver Creek, Little Missouri, Lake, Peril Station. O'Failan Creek -named from a member ot the railroad engineering party, who wa killed there la 1873 Whitney, Powder River, and Toll Road. Once la a while th stage-driver lose hie way. and. doe not bring up to the friendly ranch, wltb It sup ply of cooking bacon, until toward midnight, or tbe wee sma' hours of th morning, if.

Indeed, he get lu that night at all There were seven inches of snow in th Yellowstone TaUey Jan. 1, and cattle were picking their own living easily, without shelter, under and alongside th hi Us. West of Mile City about every quarter section along the river is taken. That part ot the country can be very easily farmed without irrigating, but in tbe rear, at a distance from the river, It 1 onite dry in soma oaarter. By running a few ditches from streams that flow Into the Yellowstone, or from tne river Itself, this can easily be remedied.

Miles City shows great signs of improvement of late, and eon be scarcely recognized as the same place that existsa there eight mouths aga It is noticeable that the "women of the town" do not rule as they once did, and respectable storekeepers no longer feel obliged to speak obsequiously to tbe demimonde for fear of losing tbeir trade. General Nelson A Miles is greatly respected throughout this section, and bis services against the Indians are held in special esteem. Mr. E.

11 Beckler, Assistant Engineer ot the Northern Paciflo Railroad, a gentleman who holds a hign place professionally with the company, and a popular place with all who have been fortunate enough to be associated with him, lately returned from a point 2 GO miles west of Miles City, where he left his engineering party, and baa given me many facia of Interest in relation to tbe Western lands, his ena-lneering experiences, etc Mr. Beckler's party consisted of the regular number fifteen, and, although exposed to all kinds of fatigue far away from civilization, they enjoyed the best of health, and could ask for no better climate. The future of the Yellowstone country Mr. Beckler regarded as indeed great and glorious. THB DAKOTA SKTTLKB.

During my stay in this Territory I have taken pains to ascertain concerning the actual condition of tbe Dakota settler of a year or two past. With this end In view 1 spent two days at a new forming town on tue Northern Paolflo Road, between Farro and Bismarck. In the neighborhood of Sanborn, Barnes County, I found several scores of intelligent farmers, mainly from the East and Canada, who were tilling land at an extraordinary yield of wheat, and were plainly on the path to prosperity, if not considerable wealth.

If you want to see real wide-awake, enterprising, and comprehensive journalism. As we did want to see "real wide-awake. enterprising, and comprehensive journalism" we always have a fondness and an admira tion for such, wherever found we procured copies of the Chicago holiday dailies, which our correspondent above referred to, and find them of sufficient Interest and import ance to warrant us in devoting a page of th Paper.

This was oertalnly a novelty in Journalism, and wasn't it a dainty dish to set before tho newspaper, reading- public? iix roa a wtcxxu And for all this, the Times, with its twenty well-filled page, containing a winter's interesting reading, -wa sold for fly oents; Taa Im Ocxaw' alxteen-page Christmas number, with it news audit literature, aad It "Christmas Garland," wa also sold for fly cents. And tbe Chicago Tribune, with its quintuple New Year's edition ot twenty, six. column page of expensively obtained new, literature, and tha grand resume of Chicago's trade, commerce and manufactures for I88O, was likewise marketed at five cent a copy. "Fifteen cents for fifty-six pages or 356 column of journal istio literature of th day and business of the times, earf ally prepared, intelligently disgested, well arranged, and handsomely printed." With this remark we laid aside our package of Chicago newspapers in the full and abiding faith that had, without douct, seen some "real wide-awake, enterprising and comprehensive journalism." Truly Chicago is great ana its daily journal are its prophets.
