While the usual round of enjoy¬ ment has gone on, there have been no particularly interesting events in Griffin society the past week, and nothing has been announced for the coming week. * An engagement has become more generally known, though it is said to have been announced to some on the first of the month. It is between one of our most prominent young lawyers and o»e of Griffin’s most popular and beautiful belles. We get nothing for publishing names in such cases, so that those oi our read ers not already posted will have to look nut for the diamond ring, which is quite handsome. -s * The ladies all acquitted themselves well at the Presbyterian concert. The two gentlemen who received most applause were Judge Hammond and Judge Stevenson, the latter re ceiving such an ovation at one point as to overcome his usual rockribbed composure. Miss M?sie Hammond gave an el egant little supper to a choice num her of friends on Tuesday evening, at which a charming feature was one separate dish for each guest se¬ lected according to that guest’s known special taste. * * * On Friday evening Mrs. W. IT. Lyon entertained a few friends with one of those inimitable little feasts for which her bouse has been famous, and which make ladies as well as gentlemen regret the narrow limits which nature has set to the capacity of the most willing guest. Six hand ed euchre and Georgia wine shcr bert beguiled the rest of the evening, topped off by a ride home in the moonlight. ■* •* * Speaking of wine sherbet and such like light diet, a lady in Atlanta gives the following account of what must be a very thin drink: *‘I visited a friend recently and she gave me a glass of wine. It was of a pale am her tint, and bad all the sparkle and delicacy of flavor of champagne, and when opened popped loudly. It was effective, though mild as a stim ulant, and I thought it very fine. I asked what variety of grape it was made from, and my friend told me that it was made of rose leaves. ‘Take the freshly picked leaves^ she said, ‘and put into a jar altern ately a layer of leaves and sugar and pour over a little cold water. In four days strain, let stand a week and then bottle for nse.‘ The wine is a delightful beverage.*' * * * It is said that the bandana rage created ty the nomination of Thar man may extend to the dress pattern for summer wear. Instead ef a “rose bud garden of girls“ society would then consist of a bed of tulips, ■* * * If the ladies want to wear the Dem ocratic symbols without wearing them all over, they can put a red ker chief around the neck and fasten it with a jewelled imitation of Mrs. Cleveland's favorite flower, the pan sy, mounted in a brooch. ♦ * * It is always the way that when people have little affairs of their own they will discuss other people's. Let ue, then, discuss the marriage of the daughter of the Governor, which comes off on Tuesday, in Atlanta. She is to be married to Mr. Barton Smith.- Two thousands invitations have been issued for the ceremony at the church, and there will be a small informal reception at the Governor’s mansion later in the evening- They will travel for a month or six weeks and spend August at “Sutherland,” Governor Gordon’s country seat near Atlanta. Part of the bride’s elegant trousseau, including the wedding dress, was made in Washington. The wedding gown is of ivory white moire, and especially designed for Miss Gordon’s style, who is tall and has a gracefully rounded figure. The waist is high necked, being ctft away slighly in a V yhape at the back and square in front; and filled in with tulle thickly rnched to the high collar baud. The edge was outlined by closely set rows of fine silver braid, the same trimming on the vest, which ran to a sharp point in front, dividing on either side soft folds of the tulle, which bung loose from the square pnff at the neck. The elbow sleeves were of shirred and tucked tulle. The skirt bad an effective panel on the right side of the silver braid, broidered by a scarf of the moire, caught at the hem wifh a rosete of tulle. The train fell in deep organ plaits without trim ming. Another costume was of black silk net satin striped, made over black silk and jauntily trimmed with narrow moire ribbons. A yachting dress of red and cream striped flannel bad a kilted skirt with a broad apron overskirt, and jacket, tight in the back; bad loose fronts to be belted in with a band of flan nel. There was a separate shirt front of white flannel to wear inside broad sailor coliar and a natty scarf tie of cream surah. An exceedingly stylish wrap was of sago green cloth with loose fronts closing diagonally from the left shoulder and fitting tight in the back. It was bordered with Persian embroidery in dull gilt and harmonizing silk shades. The sleev es were something of a wrap shape, squaro at the ends and slit half way up. This dainty little garment, half jacket .and half wrap, hag been great ly^admire l. The stuff dresses in the trosi-eau were equally stylish. M i POWDER Absolutely Pure. TUis Powder never vanes.
