SOCIAL SALAD
PLEASANTLY REPORTED FOR
THE EVENING (’ALL.
A. SONG OF LOVE.
11 s a flash of light in a darkened night—
A rainbow rimming a tear;
It’s a May-bloom after the wintry blight
And a dream that’s sweet, my dear.
A dream that’s sweet, my dear—
A rose for a life to wear;
A May-bloom after the wintry blight
And a dream that’s sweet, my dear !
It’s a song that thrills in a world of sighs,
A hope in a night of liar;
A steadfast star in the changing skies
And a dream that’s sweet, my dear.
A dream that’s sweet, my dear—
A rose.lbr a life to wear;
A May-bloom after the wintry blight
And a dream that’s sweet, my dear!

The time is ripe for a discussion of
the sailor hat, that is already capping
the majority of heads of both sexes.
There i< nothing new to tell of the
shape of it. Medium crown and brim
are emphatically preferred, and cream
white flat, or pineapple braid, is what
the nicest are made of. Last year we
suffered from an invasion of straws of
mixed colors; this summer, if you
must have variety and color, take it
out in your crown band. Dark green
groe grain ribbon looks cool and tidy
on a white straw, better far than ruby
red and corn-flower blue velvet bands,
that claim a very respectable follow
ing. The dark blue and green and red
sailors are gay enough with their
crown bands of gold ribbon, or their
braided gold or silver cords that, like
those on a sombrero, tie in a bow-knot
at one side, with a ball or a tassel end
lying out on the brim. One can hard
ly agree that these, pretty as they are,
Lave any recommendations for practi
cal uses, for fancy the result to the
bullion braid on a foggy day at the
seashore, when a sailor bat should be
of service anywhere. Something of
undeniable charm has the pink blue,
or plaid gingham baud, that fastens in
place by a couple of pearl buttons or a
small silver buckle. There is down
right reason in that, for then you can
put on a crisply-laundered band to
match every frock, and the novelty of
the thing is pleasing. Beside this new
comer is the inevitable, that is to say,
a sailor trimmed with tulle. A couple
of big pompons on the left side of the
crown, one a little above the other,
and on stems of wire wrapped with
ribbon, is the thing. It is not a very
stable trimming, of course ; still it is a
trimming, and the outlines of a sailor,
severe and untempered, are often too
hard for even pretty faces. If you have
not yet been introduced to the Donna
Gonzales, it is high time you were fa
miliariiing yourselves with her amaz
ing proportions, for in popularity as
well as size, she truly has no rivals.
She is nothing but a genuine Torread*
or’s hat, doubled in circumference and
in depth of brim. The brim turns up
all ’round, to bring its edge to a level
with the three or four-inch-tall cron
and then over tiiis, tulle and flowers
are piled in tropical, but graceful
abundance and confusion. It is per
fectly permissible not only to pin
Donna Gonzales far down over the
eyes, but to tilt her a trifle to the right
side of the head, and then help her to
maintain her bold by a veil sprinkled
big, little apd medium dots. That is
the newest net of the season, and prob
ably the last novelty in this line to re
cord until autumn.

lhe reception which Mrs Robert
Strickland gave Tuesday afternoon,
was a congenial and charming gather
ing, and a pretty complement to the
Mystic Circle, of which Mrs. Strick
land is one of the most interesting
members. The handsome home waa
radiant with lights and flowers, and a
brilliant assemblage In tbe lovely
parlor with it’s pure white walla and
draperies, there was a profusion of
white flowers used. In the dining
room, marguerites and maiden hair
ferns gave a touch to the rich mahog
any and tapestries, and in tbe refresh
ments the same color scheme—white
and green were used. In the reception
hall and library’, a touch of green in
paims and smilax, gave a welcoming
appearance to tbe spacious apartment.
Mrs, Strickland wore a lovely and be
coming gown of white mousselaine,
over green taffetas Miss Head, who
so charmingly assisted in receiving the
guests, was beautifully gewned in
I white, with neck and sat-h libbons o

Thursday’s meeting—Mrs. Kincaid

Miss Emma Wilburn has received
the scholarship in the Columbian
School of Manual Training, of New
York, which was placed at the dispo
sal of tbe Georgia Federation of Wo
men’s Clubs. Miss Wilburn is agrad
uate of the Milledgeville Normal
•chooi, and is a brilliant young woman
—by her many advantages. Miss Wil
burn has added to her natural gifts a
a progressiveness of thought that is
balanced by sufficient conservatism to
keep true the mental action. During
her two years’ stay in New York, Miss
Wilburn will be missed by the many
warm friends she has in Griffin.

Master Fielding Smith entertained
a number of friends delightfully last
Thursday evening, at the residence of
Prof. Chas. Neel, on Hill street.
* * *
Prof, and Mrs Chas. Neel entertain
ed Tuesday evening at a brilliant re
ception in honor 'of the graduating
class of the Chas. M. Neel Institute.
The elegant home was beautifully
adorned with a profusion of roses and
daises, and the affair was as pretty as
’twas enjoyable. Although it was so
delightful, there was a tinge of sadness
over all, for each realized that this was
Prof, and M rs. Neel’s farewell to Griffin
friends, as they leave in a short while
for Kentucky, their future home.
Prof. Neel is a popular and progressive
man, who during his two years stay in
Griffin, has identified himself with the
bright educational interests of the city
and has made a wide circle of friends
who regret so sincerely to see him
leave. Mrs. Neel is a woman in whom
are united gentleness and strength
of character of an unusual degree.
She is one of those women without
whom the world would be far poorer.
Prof, and Mrs. Neel were assisted in
doing tbe honors of the evening by
their daughter, Miss Nora Neel. Miss
Neel is a young woman of rare person
al attractions and by her gentle, sweet
manner has won for herself innumer
able friends. Many called to partici
pate in tbe pleasures of the evening
and tbe occasion was delightful.

I “I was in a most dreadful condition,

Three physicians bad given mo up.
Fortunately a friend advised trying
‘Electric Bitters;’ and to my great joy
and surprise, the first bottle made a
decided improvement. I continued
their use for three weeks, and am. now

Election of Teachers.
1 At a meeting of the board of direc-
1 tors of the public schools yesterday as
-1 ternoon Prof. J. Henry Walker was
1 elected superintendent of the schools
for the next year.
1 The following teachers were also
■ elected but were not assigned to
’ grades: Mrs. A. B Johnson, Misses
Louise Waddell, Annie Flannigan,
' Katie Thrash, Rebecca Nall, Mollie
White and Mattie Corbin.
Mies Abbie Westbrook was elected
first supernumerary, Miss Alice Ha»-
aelkus second supernumerary, and
Prof. 11. D Druckenmiller teacher of
1 sight singing.
J. L. Bowden was elected principal
’ of tbe Broad street (colored school ;
A. M. Wilkins, teacher ; M iss Cora Lee
Dickens, first supernumerary; Mrs.
1 Waller Pitts, second supernumerary.
The salaries will remain the same as ;
heretofore
' Mies Nail was the a»w teacher elect
ed, and she fills a vacancy caused by
' the resignation of Miss Wilburn, who
has received one of the scholarships
in the Columbia University of N"w
York
Pitts’ Carminative is pleasant to the
. taste, acts promptly, and never fails to
, give satisfaction. It carries children over
tbe critical time of teething, and is the
friend oi anxious mothers and puny chil
dren. A few doses will demonstrate its
value. E. 11. Dorsey, Athens, <la , writes :
“I consider it the best medicine I have ev

claim for it, and even more.’’

I EVERYTHING QUIET-
It Is Now Thought There Will Be No
More Trouble From Regulators
i
Tbe band of regulators who have
’ caused so much excitement this week
is thought to have given up the fight
after seeing the determined stand
taken by the officers to suppress their
, lawlessness.
No threatening notes were posted
• last night and everything was quiet at
the mills and io the city.
As a precautionary measure Sheriff
, Morris deputized about twenty men to
- guard the jail last night, and at
one o’clock they were relieved by the
Griffin Rifles under command of Capt.
J. Henry Smith, but their services
were not needed.
Three more arrests have been made
since yesterday. Will Gray informed
Sheriff Morris last night that he was
ready to give himself up. Deputy
Sheriff Freeman went to the place
designated and found Gray, who was
placed in jail about 10 o’clock.
Today Officers Phelps and Gordon
arrested Ned Fallins and Joe Credille.
This makes eleven men now in jail
who are thought to be members of the
gang, and their preliminary trial next
Monday will be watched with more
interest than any case which has coma
before tbe courts of Spalding county
in years.
