Social Salad
PLEASANTLY REPORTED FOR
THE EVENING GALL.
June.
She needs no teaching; no defects is hers;
She stands in all her beauty ’mid trees.
Neath the tall pines her golden sunshine
stirs
And shifts and trembles with each passing
breeze.
All the long day upon the broad, green
boughs
Lieth the lustre of her lovely life,
While too much drugged with rapture to
carouse,
Broods her soft world of insect-being rife.
So without eflfort or perplexing thought
She comes to claim all homage as her own
Clad in the richest garments Nature has
wrought,
Melting the strongest with her magic zone.
Oh, wondrous June! Our lives should be
like thee,
With such calm grace fulfilling destiny.

A notably brilliant event was the
; marriage of Miss Matlie Briggs Tut
wiler and Mr. James M. Alartin,of
i Huntsville, Ala,, on Wednesday even
; ing at the home of Mrs, Matlie West
,in Huntsville. The beauty and popu
larity of the bride and the social prom*
■ inence of both families made this
wedd-ng one of wide-spread interest.
The heme scene was a lovely one.
Within the spacious house acetylene
lights made the scene a brilliant one,
shining in a profusion of pink sweet
peas, which were used in every avail
able niche and corner. Beautiful
garlands of bamboo, that graceful
Southern vine, formed green arches
over the bay. window where the bridal
party stood during the ceremony.
Here a mass of palms and ferns formed
a lovely bower. As Miss Tutwiler,
Mrs. Martin was deservedly papular,
cultured and traveled. She is a most
interesting and attractive young wo
man, and will win many friends in her
new home. The bridal gown of white
liberty chiffon over white taffetas was
beautifully fashioned and most becom
ing. The tulle veil fell in graceful
folds from the crown of her bead to
the nem of the long skirl. She car
ried bride roses Mr. Martin is popu
lar and prominent He has unusual
ability, which has placed him in the
foremost rank of Huntsville’s business
men The presents received were very
handsome —in elegant phaeton and
horse was the gift of the groom to his
bride. A chest of silver from the
groom’s father was his gift to his new
daughter After the reception which
followed the ceremony, Mr. and Mrs.
Martin went to the lovely home which
Mr Martin bad prepared for bis bride.
The bridal trip was deferred on ac
count of the illness of the bride’s
mother.

GRIFFIN, GEORGIA, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 10, 1899.
; JEFFRIES THE CHAMPION.
f
Knocked Out Fitzsimmons in 11th
Round in a Decisive Way

I
j New i'ork, June 10.—Jas, Jeffries
is the champion heavy weight pugilist
. of the world. Last night, in the arena
. of the Coney Island Sporting Club, be
[ knocked out Robt. Fitzsimmons, in a
. clean cut manner
Fitzsimmons was out—weighed and
, out-matched.
Jeffries showed himself one of the
[• cleverest and fastest fighters, as well
; as the heaviest Fitzsimmons lauded
, often, but his punches were of no ef
fect. Jeffries showed wonderful speed
i with his left hand, doing most damage
with it,until the eleventh round, when
he put his right flush on the point of
the jaw and knocked Bob insensible to
the floor.
Fitzsimmons’ defeat came as a
thunderbolt out of a clear sky, though
from the moment the men entered the
ring, it was appreciated that Bob had
his hands full.
THE MODERN BEAUTY
Thrives on good food and sunshine, with
plenty of exercise in the open air. Her
form glows with health and her face
blooms with its beauty. If her system
needs the cleansing action of a laxative
remedy, she uses the gentle and pleasant

Syrup Co. only.

Senator Hanna and the Chairmanship.
Senator Hanna indignantly denies
the rsport sent out from Washington
that he intends to resign the chair
manship of the Republican national
committee. He says he will retain
the position until the end of his term
His term will end with the election of
a new committee. He will therefore
call the next Republican convention
to order.
It is of very little importance to the,
Republican party whether he retains
the chairmanship of the committee or
not, as there is not very much of im
portance to do before the meeting of
the national convention. It is a lore
gone conclusion that the President!
will be renominated, unless something
unforseen happens before the conven
tion meets to destroy the confidence of
his party in hie ability to carry the
next presidential election. Th* ques
tion as to whether Senator Hanna will
accept the chairmanship for another
term is of vastly more importance Io
his party than whether he will servo
out bis present term.
It ie doubtful if the Republicans
could get another chairman whocould
do as much to assist tbeir party to re*
tain control of the government as Sen
ator Hanna can. He proved himself
an exceptionally able campaign man
ager in 1896, and it is certain that it
would be difficult, without his assist
ance, to raise the amount needed for
campaign expenses. He has the con
fidence of those who ate expected to
contribute to the campaign fund.
It is doubtful, however, if he will
consent to manage the Republican
campaign in 1900. He says that he
cannot afford to do so. His health will
not permit and hi« private interests
demand bis attention. He is going to
Europe in a few days for his health,
being a great sufferer from rheuma*
tisn*. It is expected, however, that a
great pressure will be brought to bear
on him to induce him to manage the
campaign next year.
It may be that one of the reasons
why he would like to keep out of a
conspicuous place in next year's cam
paign is the dislike he has to being
caricatured Some of the pictures
which were made of him during the
last campaign were of a character to
make him wish he had never had any
thing to do with politics L heshou d
be the Republican campaign manager
in 1900 the artists who make men fa
mous or infamous with their pencils
would do tbeir utmost to make life
miserable for him.—Savannah News.
Spain’s Greatest Need.

Financial Legislation Predicted-
Senato,r Allison is the authority for
the statement that Congress, at its
approaching session, will pass a finau- ;
cial measure. He says it will be a very
moderate measure—one that will i
maintain the gold standard, and at
the same time give the country a safe
and flexible currency. In the course
of bis talk the senator said : 'The rec*
ommendations of the President rela
tive to the issue of national batik cur
rency to par value of bonds deposited
with the United States treasurer, a
decrease in the tax on national bank
circulation and the payment of gold
for grtenbacks when the latter are
taken out of the tnasury are all
worthy es enactment into law, and
I I should not be surprised to see them
adopted ”
We have not believed al any time that
Congress, at the session commencing
next December, will pass a financial
measure. It will be a difficult matter
to suggest any financial legislation
which will command the undivided
support of the Republicans. They
don’t want to give the Democrats any
campaign material. It is impossible to
frame a financial measure that
wouldn’t provoke a vast amount of
opposition. Therefore, while the R»s
publicans will talk about a financial
measure and bills looking to financial
legislation will be introduced, it, is safe
to say (hat no money bill will ba pass
ed until after the presidential election.

&.n Excellent Combination.
’The pleasant method and bemflcial
effects of the well known reun-.’y,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing tin- system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and f< vers
gently yet promptly and enal .io< tie
to overcome habitual constipat ion per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance. and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, main it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing Sius
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are. obtained from sermi and
Other aromatic plants, bv a melhol
