SOCIETY.
AT GREENWICH HOUSE.
Sir. Shotter’* Brilliant Reception In.
trottneing His Daughter.
It was In what decorative art had
transformed into an enchanted home,
e(>t m a fairy land of beauty that Mr.
Spencer Proudfoot Shotter Introduced
to society his daughter, Miss Isabel
pavis Shotter last night.
At Greenwich House, the hand
some country home Mr. Shotter
lias recently built, his daughter's
formal introduction took place. For
the first time the doors of Greenwich
House were opened for a large func
tion; surely its spacious and lavish
hospitality could not have been more
fittingly inaugurated, nor to accom
paniments more in keeping with the
spirit of the occasion and the beauty of
the house itself.
For a mile from the entrance to the
grounds the guests passed between
rows of lanterns which lined the road
way, and as they entered the gates a
fairyland of enchanted beauty greeted
them. A semi-circle of colored electric
lights pendant, framed the approach
to the house between whose Corinthian
columns shone a flood of welcoming
light. The river front on the right re
flected the glow, and in the distance
could be seen the lights of Thunder
bolt.
inside the scene gained in beauty.
Every room ablaze with lights and
breathing the fragrance of flowers.
The guests entered first the spacious
inner rotunda, with its rich
Moorish coloring and lofty propor
tions. Grouped between the pillars of
Pompeian red were masses of white
chrysanthemums and graceful palms.
In the center of the picture thus
framed in beauty, stood the celebrated
and graceful statue, the ‘‘Eve Tempt
ed” of Hiram Powers, its lovelines
attracting and holding every one. The
guests began arriving by 8 o’clock. The
reception hours were from 8; 30 to 11
o’clock. The guests were received in
the drawing room, on the right of the
hall. Here the color tone was turquoise
blue, the walls, hung with heavy bro
cade, harmonizing with the mural dec
orations and with the exquisite French
furniture, conspicuous among which
is the quaint Sedan chair, once cwned
by the Princess de Lamballe. Added
to the’ artistic treasures were lovely
decorations of hot house flowers. The
mirrors reflected banks of maiden hair
ferns, while Venetian vases filled with
nephltos and bride roses graced man
tel arid cabinet.
The guests were received by Mr.
Shotter and his young daughter, and
in the receiving party were also Mrs.
George Rountree of Wilmington, N. C.,
and Mrst Anderson Carmichael. Miss
Shotter was a charming figure in a
Parisian gown of transparent white
crepe with flowers of rose point lace.
The bodice was a mass of tiny shir
rings and soft draperies of lace, the
only touch of color being a small clus
ter of pink roses on the left shoul
der.
Mrs. Rountree wore an exquisite cos
tume of cream white net with inser
tions of Mecklenburg lace. The high
bodice was appliqued with seed pearls,
and finished with soft choux of rose
pink chiffon.
Mrs. Anderson Carmichael!*- beau
tiful costume was of. black lace
over white taffeta, and Miss
Emily Shotter wore a gown of black
peault de sole, with jet passementerie
over white silk.
In the sittjng room across the hall
bridesmaid roses were used in decora
tion, thejr vivid color blending with
the moss green brocade of the wall
hangings and with the friexe of pink
and white lotus flowers. The mu
sicians were stationed in the music
room beyond, and throughout the re
ception gave delightful selections of
music.
The entire house was thrown open
for the pleasure of the guests. Each
room had its special attraction and the
guests were given an opportunity to
admire the interesting treasures which
Mr. Shotter has collected in his trav
els. In the billiard room was seen
the massive oak settee—once the prop
erty of the Duke of Sutherland —with
its handsome carving of the period of
1606.
An elaborate supper was served in
the dining room, which is one of the
handsomest rooms in the house, with
its panelling of dark oak and massive
carved furniture. In the center of the
room the refreshment table was bril
liant with American Beauty roses in
tall vases. Punch and coffee were
served at -smaller tables, which were
presided over by Miss Mary Carmichael
and Miss Belle* Daniel, while assisting
them were Miss Miriam Dent, Miss
Mary Moul, Miss Iceland Hull, Miss
Eleanor Shotter and Miss Lila Car

The meeting of the board of the
Woman’s Exchange took place yes
terday morning. The resignation of

able prices and all the decorations will
carry out the suggestion, of the ap
proaching Christmas tide. Those who

that all the gentlemen may have an
opportunity of attending. Many who
are engaged in the ever popular bowl
ing will adjourn to the “tea” for re
freshments, after the game. There will
be no fixed charge of admission, but
as the name “silver," indicates any
piece of silver will be acceptable, while
paper and gold are not debarred.
The general arrangements for the
tea are in the hands of Mrs. George W.
Tiedernan, assisted by Mrs. W. A. Nls
bet and Mrs. A F. Krouskoff. Mrs J.

TILTED IN THE COURT ROOM.
Ju<lk<* anil Counsel Locked Argu
mentative Horns In Criminal
Trial.
A colloquy decidedly animated oc
curred in the Superior Court yester
day between Judge Seabrook and Air.
John E. Myrick. The case of the state
against W. J. Potter, charged with
hunting with gun and dogs on Sun
day, was in progress and Mr. Myrick
represented the defendant.
The state had closed its case and
the court had asked Air. Myrick if
he desired to introduce any evidence.
Counsel made several ineffectual at
tempts to confer with his client, Pot
ter’s voice risjng each time loud above
the court room sounds. Mr. Aiyrick
gave it ud.
"If your honor please,” he said, “I
desire to be , allowed a few minutes
for consultation with my client. Air.
Potter is a trifle deaf, and I And it
difficult to make myself understood.”
"You ought to prepare your case
outside the court room, Air. Aiyrick.
The court rooyi is for their trial. Pro
ceed with the case,” rejoined the court.
“I object to being told," said Air.
Aiyrick, “that I don’t prepare my cases
outside the court room. I do. I just
wanted —‘
“Listen to me,” said Judge Sea-
Urook. ‘‘You want to be exceedingly
careful whit you say. The court de
cides and so rules that cases must
be prepared outside the court room.
Proceed with the trial.”
“Well, you might have told me that,"
said Air. Aiyrick.
“Be very careful,” repeated the
court, and counsel was careful to the
extent of having nothing more to say.
The ease was otherwise remarkable
from the rapidity with which it was
tried. Fyom the time the jury was
selected, iintil a verdict was return
ed, just,' twenty minutes elapsed, no
arguments being made. The Jury’s
verdict was guilty and the defendant
was sentenced to pay a tine of SSO
and fiosts or serve twelve months on
the public works.
WIFE WANTS ALIMONY.
Olivia L, Webster Files I’ellllon
Against Simon K. Webster.
A petition for temporary and per
manent alimony was filed in the Su
perior Court yesterday by Olivia L.
Webster against Simeon E. Webßter,
the latter a mail carrier in the city
postofflee. The petition alleges that
Webster is amply able to support his
wife, but that for three years or more
he has declined to do so.
Judge Seabrook granted an order
directing the defendant to show cause
Saturday why the prayer of the peti
tion for temporary alimony should not
be allowed.
A week ago the defendant in the
alimony ease obtained a first verdict
in a suit for divorce he had Instituted
against his wife, on the ground of
cruel treatment. He swore on the
stand that she had beaten, abused
and otherwise ill-treated him until
life had become a torture and fur
ther existence with her absolutely im
possible. No defense was made by the
wife to the grant of this first ver
dict, but the case will practically be
reopened and the facts again devel
oped when the hearing on the appli
cation for temporary alimony takes
place.

ing Much Inconvenience.
The total destruction of the mall on
the Central train wrecked at Macon
Sunday morning has caused a number
of inquiries at the Savannah postolflce,
as to valuable packages. The amount
of Inconvenience and annoyance to the
banks that will result can scarcely be
overestimated and Postmaster Doyle
said yesterday it would take six
months to straighten out some of the
tangles.
The mail oar carried two registered
pouches from Savannah, one from At
lanta and the other for Chicago. The
former contained 20 and the latter
twelve pieces, for each of which the
government Is responsible to the
amount of 110 only. This will make its
loss from the destruction of the train
S3BO for this item alone.
The money orders that have been
destroyed will be duplicated by the de
partment as soon as satisfactory
proofs of their destruction have been
submitted and some applications to
this effect have already been filed.
