THE EVENING GALL. Fol. X. No. 226 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 blue ihe My.lie Circle is one of till.Sl cli miin i i,g 1,, ,>h iz , 11,,( H ';i < rsry ■<* wt-l as anci J, and the member- are requir ed to make a study of the life and heel poems of the writer selected for each meeting Moore was the poem for Thursday’s meeting—Mrs. Kincaid read a sketch of his life—after which followed an interesting discussion. . The souvenirs of this delightful affair were dainty cards, hand—painted in white and green and gold, each bear ing an appropriate and pretty quota tion from some of Moore’s poems. Mrs. Strickland's guests were Mrs. Charles Mills, Mrs Kincaid, Mrs. Red ding, Mrs Brawner, Mrs. Kimbrough, > Mrs. Nall, Mrs. Burr, Mrs. Flemister and Mrs. Strickland. « » » 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. * * * Tbe Hawthorne Club m t, as usual Tuesday aftersoon.

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. x'Aa. . - .
