“A Winter Picnic.”
Think of it, you, who linger amid
the ice and snow of the north and
west.
A p:cuio in mid winter, with bright
blue skits, soft breezes and beauty and
chivalry deporting in the open air
One of tlie gentlemen present has
kindly furnished ns with a report of
the very enjoyable “winter picnic,
gotten"up yesterday by the guests of
the Stuart House. The party, num
bering sixteen left the Stuart at 10 a.
in., and after a pleasant drive ol four
miles readied tlie banks of the wind
ing Ochlockonee, where, under the
shadow of majestic pines and surroun-
ed by Magnolias and live oaks, prep
arations were made for dinner. Mine
host Stuart had made ample prepara
tions for this important event, and
when tlie gay parly eat down to the
splendid spread, with appetites whet
ted by the open air, it would be hard
to conceive a happier or better con
tented lot of ladies and gentlemen.
After dinner was over the time was
spent in wandeiing on the banks of
the river, in conversation, in guy sal
lies ot wit followed by joyous peals of
laughter. The party returned to the
city at 5 o’clock well pleased with
the day and satisfied that not. even flic
blue skies of Italy', nor tlie Riviera
could furnish such a perfect day and
a dilicious climate as the “Sunny
South,” and all within 86 hours ot
New York or Chicago.
The following ladies and gentlemen
composed the party :
Mrs. Jennings, Misses Herring,
Griffin, Deisher, Lillie, Jessie, and
Ella Stuart. Gentlemen : Messrs.
Ivlooz, Gage, Wilber, Docrhoefer, A.
Stuart, Gibson, Livingston and
Stoarns.

town and tax payers should he care
fully guarded.
