Balls, parties, germans, theater, lunoheons,
teas and all other sorts of gayeties
have been the order of the day and night.
The past week has been full of exeitement
for all the gay people of the “smart’’ set.
Even the making of Christmas presents has
had to be put aside for the more important
things that 1111 the .minds of the young ladies
of society. The soiree, following so closely
after the german on Tuesday evening, hardly
gave the * ’bud” au opportunity to regain
her “beauty Bleep," but she did not need
any more than she had, judging from her
blooming appearance on Thursday evening j
last. The second german was danced at
the Catholio Library hall, as usual, and
was enjoyed by every one present. Mr. T.
M. Cummingbara, Jr.’s maiden effort at
leading a germau was crowned with suo
cess. He achieved something that the com
bined efforts of his sex have failed in. He
made every young lady there a belle, and
there was not one who put her weary head
on her downy pillow and closed her tired
eyee without that sweet feeling of repose lu
her triumph of the evening. There were
two charming additions to the list of debut
antes.
Miss Martha Screven, who was becom
ingly dressed in white gauze over white
■ilk.
Miss Gertrude Weed in white chiffon over
white silk.
Both of these young ladies seem to have
already won their way into the hearts of
many of the sterner sex and their continued
success is predicted.
The ohaperenes were Mrs. E. P. Alexan
der, Mrs. T. M. Cunningham and Mrs. W.
H. Daniel.
The other guests, as well as I oau remem
ber, were CoX and Mrs. William Garrard,
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Karow, Misses Flem
ing, Woodbridge, Thomas, Lawton, In
gram, Lester, Whitehead, Comer, May,
Owens, Brigham, Guerard, Baeehus, Charl
ton and Jones. The fair straagers were
Misses Daniel of Jackson, Miss Brady of
Detroit and Miss Rotan of Waoo, Tex.
Messrs. Cunningham, Gadsden, Anderson,
Daniel, Habersham, Williamson, Thomas,
Meroer, Read, Leaken, Uartridge, Hall,
Woodbridge, Gamble, Whltehsad, Carswell,
Crane, Charlton, Alexander, CunniDgbain,
Montague, Johnson, Taylor, West, Cann,
Myers, Howard, Cox, Carter and others.
The gallery was as popular as ever.
Maj. and Mrs. George A. Whitehead held
the anniversary of their silver wedding on
last Wednesday evening. They were grace
fully assisted in receiving the guests by
Mrs. Barrett Jenkins of Augusta. Ga., aiul
their charming daughter, Mis- Whitehead.
The house was most artistically decorated
with palms, potted plants and beautiful
flowers. The number of persons present
was unusually large, and was a marked
oompliroent to tbe bappy couple, who so
justly deserve all the good wishes that were
showered upon them. The substantial expres
sion of good will in the form of presents was
much admired. There were some handsome
mementos from friends, not only In Savan
nah, but much farther away. Congratula
tory telegrams were received from thought
ful ones who would like to have been with
them to indulge in the festivity. AU
were present could not
fail to enjoy it. The mnsio
was most agreeably rendered, every
ojem happy spirite, and the evening was
one that wiii long live iu the memory of
those who were there as one of the pleas
antest of their lives. Among the guests
were Mr. and Mrs. W, G. Charlton, Mr. and
Mrs. T. M. Cunningham, Mr. and Mrs. W.
W. Rogers, Mr. and Mrs. D. G. Purse,
Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Walthour, Mr. and Mrs.

Hull, Mrs. T. C. Wayne, Mr. and Mrs. P.
W. Meldrtm and others. About 500 invita
tions were issued.
The first soiree took place last Thursday
evening at the De Soto and was a charming
entertainment. There is no place that is
better adapted for a handsome ball than
this hotel. The large dining hall that la
used for dancing affords plenty of room
and gives all an opportunity of indulging
in the terpsichorean pleasures. The decora
tions of pa ms and other sorts of shrubbery
were great additions. The corridors aud
steps were delightful tete-a tete places, and
the music was all that could have been de
sired. Tbe ball was rather late in begin
ning, but after it got well under
way it was a most brilliant
scene, aud if I had the pea of a Shakespeare
I would describe it more graphically, and
only with such a pen cmld It be done
justioe. The supper, which was partaken
of in the banquet ball, was most palatable
and seemed to be relished by all. Quite a
number of the guests went to tbe opera be
fore the entertainment and, therefore, were
detained until a late hour, only arriving
about one hour and a half before tbe close
of the evening. Among the many who
graced the occasion were Mr. and Mrs. T.
M. Cunningham, Maj. and Mrs. G. A.
Whitehead. Mr. and Mrs. W. W.
Rogers, Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Stevens,
Mr. aud Mrs. John Screven,

was unfortunate that she appeared here the
night of the soiree, and that she detained

tbeaudlenoe until such a late boor, The
house was cr<sWiled, however, with a very
fashionable audienoe and bad a bright out
look, for there were a (treat number in
evening dress. Several theater parties
were aiven. One that was very attractive
was oomposed of Mr. and Mrs. William L.
WilsoD, Misses Brady, Lester, Comer,
Messrs. G. S. Owens, William deßruyn Kops
and Louis LeHardy.
The gayety for the coming week, as far
as I know, will be principally family par
ties. Christmas is always a glad as well as
sorrowful time. From year to year there
are always ohauges of oae kind or another.
Iu these gatherings the absence of some of
tbe dear faces is sadly missed. The vacant
chair that was filled last year will not have
the bright, happy ones to wish us “merry
Xmas" who so joyfully helped to pass the
day. Then the other side, which is the
bright side of life. Another ohair has been
added, one of the young maidens has
brought a congenial spirit to share her
happiness or grief for life, whichever kind
PrdtMenoe sees fit to send to them, but
svervthlng to say here is that if we all try
to make some dne else happy we will make
that element predominate in our own
Christmas day, and it is not a bad thought
to oarry with us thjmugh the year, “Help
others and in doiug™o we gain help our
selves.”
The leading characteristics of this season’s
modes seem to have become fairly fixed,
although the aotorious fickle dame oannot,
of course, be depended on. Skirts are still
plain and long, and although draperies have
been persistently predloted, so far they
have failed to materialize. Fur is every
where used and it would bo hard to find au
unfasbloaable fur. Very light gowns are
not so much tn evidence as was expected.
With the tailor-made suit, wide cavalier
cuffs are tbe proper thing.
Miss Lizxle Waller’s lnncheon yesterday
was a very charming affair. It was given
to a few oengenial friends. Miss Waller is
spending this winter with her aunt, Mrs.
Lewis G. Yeung, on Barnard street. She
was much missed by her friends in Savan
nah last season. She spent it in Richmond.
Miss Sarah Mills, daughter of Mr. George
J. Mills, is in Savannah for a short time,
spending the holidays with her parents at
their charming home on Hall street. Miss
Sarah is this winter attending Mrs. Le
fsrre’s school in Baltimore.
Having the privilege of reading a letter
the other day, I take the liberty of copying
an extract that might interest some of our
readers among the fair sex: “My new
frock having just been sent home from
Arnold, Constable & Co.’s I shall give you
the details briefly. It is hunter’s green
broadcloth, with trimmings of otter fur,
carrying out the combination still further
by an exquisite tan siik vest. lam literally
supposed to bave grown in it, as all sem
blance of outward fastenings are carefully
concealed. The topcoat is tbe most fetching
part of the costume. It reaches to the knee,
has high otter collar and cuffs, and old
Boreas will have to be very subtle indeed to
penetrate these warm trimmings.”
Silver filigree jewelry is much in vogue
at present.
Mrs. R. F. Neely of Waynesboro, Ga.,
was iu tbe eity last week spending a few
days with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Neely,

here several winters before her marriago
and bad many friends.
Mrs. Maria McAlp.n Is at Suwannee
Springs for a short stay. She will return

A beautiful Christmas gift is a lamp that
stands 3 feet high of Minton china, and
for ornamentation has “true lovers’ bow
knots” of gilt. The shade is rich lemon silk
with fairy-like frills of silk and point ap
plique lace. Imagine tbe soft, yellow light
shedding its rays over a dark-haired dar
ling, who casts one of her majestic glances
at tha individual opposite.
