FOR THE MISSION SCHOOL.
A delightful afternoon party was
given yesterday at the Knights of
Pythias Hall by the Junior Section of
the Council of Jewish Women. The
hall was well filled with a happy
crowd of little folks, and grown folks,
too, who seemed to have almost as
good a time. The colors of the so
ciety, purple and yellow', were every
where in evidence, on the tables where
there were things useful and eatable
for sale, and in the fluttering badges
of the young girls, who had the affair
fa charge. At one end of the hall was
a small table covered with yellow
crepe paper and bordered with
branches of fresh violets. In the cen
ter stood a wrought iron candelabra,
with yellow shades which was sur
rounded by violets and yellow jon
quils. Here there were for sale any
number of pretty embroidered collars,
! n all dainty styles and colors. Near
by wag the candy table, most tempt
jng to the little folks and across the
ball that amusing form of entertain

MRS. ASTOR ON SOCIETY.
In Sunday’s New York World tlhere
appeared an interview between Mrs.
Astor and Nixbla Greeley-Smith, a
grand-daughter of Horalce Greeley. It
is a most interesting one, because of
Mrs. Astor’e admitted position as a
social leader, and because of the very
pronounced Ideas of soceiity Ufg. to
which she gives expression. It Is a
mistake, she says, to imagine that ev
erybody In the smart set is wealthy.
There are, of course, Western people
who go down to Newport, spend mon
ey lavishly and # get a questionable
footing on the edge of society, but
t'hey are not desirable. Without a col
lege education, she asserts, no man
can be a gentleman, and she goes on
to say that personally she likes to en
tertain people of real distinction, but
not foreigners, of title or otherwise,
who come to America Without letter*
of introduction to her. In comment
ing upon Mrs. Greeley's ambition to
write a book upon "Social Leaders of
the Nineteenth Century,” Mrs. Astor
said by way of caution, that such
books are very difficulty to write, and
that Mr. McAllister wrote one of the
same nature. It was very ridiculous,
she adds, and everybody dropped him
on account of it.
SMARTEST BOWS.
The bow is a paramount importance
in the realm of dress. Never before
was it possible to deck oneself in so
many yards of ribbon. And the rib
bon bows are, of course, additions to
the dozens of yards often used upon
pretty dresses.
Later and larger than the already
favored rose bow for the hair is the
new rose bow which is equally stun
ning at the corsage or on a hat. In
deed, three of these bows are displayed
on some hats. Most of us, however,
woud find a single one would give more
chic. Tightly looped satiny ribbon in
a very pale pink forms the center,
while the outer, looser petals are of
more deeply shaded ribbon. This gor
geous rose is the size of a cabbage
head, and may be had in any color.
The Dame de Barry is formed of
three-quarter-inch white satin ribbon
with half-inch black velvet, both put
into a very smart array of loops and
ends. For the corsage three-inch white
satin taffeta ribbon is employed, a big
baroque pearl pendant finishing each.
Yards upon yards of black velvet baby
ribbon are'looped in with this and lend
great distinction. A sash could be add
ed in the same fashion.
SOCIETY EVENTS.
A-down the avenue she comes,
Melissa, young and fair;
Soft breezes kiss her rosy cheeks
And toss her sunny hair.
Heaven bless her!
Love’s happy light shines in her eyes,
Love’s joy is in her breast,
For she is hastening to meet
The one her heart loves best.
Heaven bless her!
Oh, love, my cup with joy were full—
Yea, running o’er the brim —
If you were hastening to me
Instead of unto him.
Devil take him!
—From Town Topics.

FASHIONS UP TO DATE.
Nome of the Many Things the New
York Girl Wears.
At this timely season, when spring
styles are coming in and it is off with
the old gown on with the new, the fem
inine heart yearns for New York, that
Mecca of the fashionable woman.
Fashion journals are a poor substitute
for the knowledge to be gleaned in a
walk down Broadway or through the
shops, or an evening at the opera.
Mrs. W. B. Seeskind, who has re
cently cprae to Savannah from New
York, has brought with her not only
many pretty gowns and bonnets that
are marvels of the couturier’s art, but
a host of clever ideas about little fads
of fashion and points of dress, those
unwritten touches that mark the New
York girl above her fellows.
It is the age of elaborate
gowning, Mrs. Seeskind says.
To go into a New York
theater nowadays is almost like enter
ing a reception. White, all white,
from clinging silky gown to rose laden
chiffon hat—for the New York woman
has abandoned for theater wear the
girlish rose or piquant bow In her
fluffy hair, and crowns it instead with
a tip-tilted mass of tulle.
A typical hat in Mrs. Seeskind's own
wardrobe is purest white except for a
cluster of pinky-white roses at the back
of the rolling brim. The brim itself
is laid in tiny folds of tulle, its outer
edge outlined by a flat two-inch bans
of pearls. The crown, or some new
hand-woven straw that has a silvery
gleam, is untrimmed except for a ea
bochon of pearls set far at the back.
A unique combination in a winter hat
is a crown of white plaited chiffon
and a cup-shaped brim covered with
brown fur. Another hat for cold
weather is white beaver faced with
tulle. Two long white ostrich plumes
soften its edge, and at the back is a
knot of black velvet.
A lovely hat for spring wear is in
the new flower effect, which is to be
most fashionable. Violet leaves form
the crown and the rounded brim which
curves away from tlie face and, slight
ly upwards and is a mass of purple
violets. There is no other adornment
of any kind. The gown that is worn
with this charming hat is dark blue
of the new canvas cloth, which is
something like grenadine. It is fast
ened at the back—everything Is fast
ened at the back —and trimmed with
heavy lace dyed to the same shade of
blue, which is one of the very latest
wrinkles. It is laid on the skirt in an
effective design, and on the corsage
emphasizes the curve of waist and
shoulder. The material is out away
from the front of the bodice so as to
show an interlining of pale yellow taf
feta almost covered by a scroll design
in embroidery on W’hite silk. For every
thing now must show beautiful hand
work if you would be fashionable. A
lovely gown that illustrates this per
fectly is of w'hite satin crepe de chine
—that wonderful new fabric which can
cost anything a yard. The entire gown
is formed of circular tucked medallions
inserted with embroidered stitching.
The seams of the skirt are herring
boned together with narrow silk braid
instead of floss, and above the grad
uated circular flounce is a scroll pat
tern in the medallions. The high
corsage is made with elbow sleeves,
which are an essential feature of all
evening gowms, and It is finished with
a wide girdle of heavy Irish lace, which
hangs well below the w’aist line in front
and has the long postilion back. A
true New York touch seen in all the
gowns is the taffeta petticoat whose
upper flounce over the silk ruffles is of
accordion-plaited chiffon.
Another gown equally charming is
of the same materia! in pale grey, with
no trimming except the elaborate em
broidered designs that cover the skirt
and corsage.
A beautiful dinner gown is of finest
black Brussels net with a delicate in
terworked pattern of spangled jet,
made over white taffeta. The neck and
sleeves of the corsage are unlined, and
the sleeves are quite plain, with little
fulness, gathered at the wrist into a
slight bishop effect. A tiny fold of
rose pink velvet edges the transparent
collar, and at the shoulders is a short
loose garland of very small wide-open
ed pink roses fastened to loops of baby
ribbon. A single band of the roses is
laid against the front of the bodice
from shoulder to waist. There is a gir
dle of plain black net gathered over
a roll of white chiffon and ending in
two balls of jet. It is fastened at the
back, hanging more than half the
length of the skirt, and at the waist
line there is a shorter drapery of the
ribbon strung roses. The striped effect
of the jet is woven Into a scroll de
sign near the lower edge of the skirt,
which is finished with a narrow scal
loped flounce, bordered with roses, and
falling over a white chiffon under
ruffle.
A dark blue velvet suit, a coat of
Persian lamb and sable, a long black
satin cloak with deep collar of bee mar
ten fur, are all very handsome, but too
wintry to appeal to Southern taste in
March. In shirt waists the new Gibson
cut is to be seen in every material. A
novel effect In pongee is the stitching
of light blue silk. The tucks and the
mannish little pockets are finished with
blue stitched arrow heads. The cuffs
and the front of the waist are fastened
by numberless round brass buttons set
close together. The colored stitching is
also seen on a whjte silk blouse done
in three shades, red, yellow and blue.
For shirt waist wear there are big
choux. butterfly bows of point d'espHt,
worn just beneath the fchin.
It is by these little tokens you know
the New York girl. From the crown of
her pretty head to the sole of her well
shod foot, she considers the mode. The ]
•heavy bulldog shoe has had its day, |
and now, no matter how bitter the
weather, she appears in openwork
stockings and low quarters, patent
leather without tips, which for a pretty
conceit she laces with the gros grain
ribbon an inch wide.
In jewels, of course, there are fash
ions as well. The latest ; s a chain of
coral beads, carelessly knotted above
the waist line, from which hangs a
round gold locket. She wears a tiny
watch of pearls, and a little heart set
with the same stones on a slender grold
chain. Her latest perfume ts Houbl
gant's “Ideal,” which is put on with a<
dropper and has the delicate fragrance
of sachet. Altogether she is a very
charming and modish creature this
New York girl.

BUSINESS AT A STANDSTILL.
Doxton People Find It Difficult to
Get Coni.
Boston, March 12.—Freight business
at the various railroads, wharves and
docks has been almost at a standstill
to-day, and the moving of accumulated
merchandise is becoming a most se
rious matter to merchants.
The strike of coal teamsters was one
of the most aggravating features of the
day and its effect was quickly felt at
hotels, restaurants and places having
accommodation for only a limited sup
ply of coal. Coal dealers were kept
busy answering appeals from anxious
customers. '

Hack and Cab Men May Strike.
There is also a movement to call out
the hack and cab men, who. since the
strike of the Armstrong Transfer Com
pany’s drivers, have been transferring
more or less baggage for passengers

The brewery employes will, it is said,
be locked out by Friday if the strike
continues, as the supply of coaf on
hand at the various breweries will give
out by that time, and work will have
to be suspended.

WOMEN 0E THE UNITED STATES
Regard Peruna as Their Shield 'Against Catarrh*
Coughs, Colds, Grip and Catarrhal Diseases.
MRS. BELVA A. LOCKWOOD, LATE CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY.
Mrs. Belva Lockwood, the eminent banaster of Washington,, D. C„ is the
only woman who has ever been a candidate for the Presidency of the United
States. She is the best-known woman in America. As the pioneer of her sex
in the legal profession she has gathered fame and fortune. In a letter to The
Peruna Medicine Company, she says:
•‘I have nxe<l your Peruna. both for myxelf and my mother. Mrx. Han
nah J. Bennett, now in her HNtli year, and I find It nil I nvnluulile reme

Any one who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh Is well nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Peruna is the only abso
lute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of Us victims. Peruna not only cures
catarrh, but prevents it. Every household should be supplied with this great
remedy for coughs, colds and so forth.

RAILROAD POOLS NO MORE.
President Roosevelt's Action Fright
ens The Big Trunk Line Associa
tion and It Promptly Dissolves.
New York. March 12.—The Herald
will say to-morrow:
"The railroad presidents and traf
fic managers composing the trunk line
association met yesterday and decided
that the money pool of the railroads
of the association shall cease to exist
after April 1. The railroads composing
the pool, which is the strongest traf
fic association ever formed in the
United States, are the New York Cen
tral and Hudson River, Jhe Pennsyl
vania, the Erie, the Baltimore and
Ohio, the West Shore, the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western, the Le
high, the New York, Ontario and
Western, and the Central Railroad of
New Jersey.
“The dissolution of the asso
ciation was precipitated by news
from the West that Pres
ident Roosevelt had intimated
that proceedings would be commenced
against all roads which were members
of pooling arrangements. Several
Western pools have been abandoned
in the past few days for the same rea
sons.
"The action of the Trunk Line Aso
ciatioft is said to be by far the mast
important event in the Eastern traffic
situation which has occurred in many
years, and the abandonment of the as
sociation was strongly urged by Pres
ident Newman of the New York Cen
tral.
“This pool Was the richest and most
powerful combination ever formed to
maintain rates and divide business
among its members.”

MAMMY GOT THE HORSE* BACK.
Told Gen. Shcridun “My Mistin' Foot
Ain’t ’Mnnlnted AVId de Ground ”
From the Washington Post.
Gen. Sheridan was resting from, a
raid during the war In camp near a fine
old mansion in Virginia. The former
master, of the mansion had been killed
In the battle of Manassas. “Mammy,”
who had been the mistress's chief com
forter when this event occurred, had
practically taken charge of the planta
tion and had run things pretty much 1
to suit herself. Sheridan's soldiers had
taken every sound horse on the place, ;
including two carriage horses. After
the raid was over "Mammy” entered
the house to find her mistress and uie
two children weeping bitterly. “Mam
my” asked:
"Child, what in de worl’ is de mat
ter’” The lady replied between sobs:
"Mamimy. they've taken the carriage
horses .and an officer tells me we’ll
never get them again unless I take the t
oath.”
"Den, chile, take de oaf. 'Taint so
bery bad, is if’ Y’ou tuk ile widout
nuokering yo’ meuf when yo’ was a
baby. I made you take many a dose.

Miss Flora Wilson, 2472 Seventh Av,
New York City, writes;
"For anyone who is as susceptible
to coughs and colds as I am, Peruna 1*
a blessing. lam never too careful, and
am always catching cold, which some
times develops into an annoying ca
tarrh of the head. Peruna I have found
is excellent for this, being very quick
in its action, besides being a most ex
cellent tonic.”
Miss Helen Sauerbler, St. Joseph,
Mich., writes:
“Last winter I caught a sudden cold
which developed into an unpleasant ca*-
tarrh of the head and throat, depriving
me of my appetite and usual good spir
its. iA friend who had been cured by
Peruna advised me to try it and I sent
for a bottle at once, and I am glad to
say that in three days the phlegm had
loosened, and I felt better, my appetite
returned, and within nine days I was
in my usual health.”
Mrs. Leslie Carter, probably the most
prominent actress in America, says the
follow ing of Peruna:
••Peruna lx xnre to prevent n eold.
H will xtop a cough before It be
en nice settled. It etirea nil ca
tarrhal aflfeetioux like magic. No
money eoulil tempt me to be without
this remedy for even a day. It is
Just the remedy that all women
need, especially xneli women that
tire exposed to the vicissitudes ot
climate, ax I uni.
”1 never neglect an opportunity to
recommend thix remedy to my
friends. It is America’s greatest
remedy for America’s grentest
enemy, eatnrrli anti catarrhal af
fections. I would not have catarrh
for n million dollars, and as long as
I have Peruna at hand to cheek the
slightest symptoms of its approach,
I feel perfectly safe from this dis
ease.” N. LESLIE CARTER.
Colds are considered one of the neces
sary ills of life. One is liable to catch
cold both summer and winter. Very
otten a, cold is the starting point or
cause of a lengthy and dangerous ca
tarrhal disease. Colds are always dan
gerous, and should never be neglected
a day.
A cold is the beginning of catarrh. It
may cause catarrh of any of the inter
nal organs—the head, throat, lungs and
stomach especially. A remedy that will
cure a cold, then, would cure all these
direct effects of colds. Peruna is such
a remedy. We have letters from all
over the United States attesting to/
this fact. The poor and rich alike use
and recommend it. A book of testimo
nials in the exact words of the writers

“Oh, Mammy,” the lady walled, “I
cannot do it. 1 don't think Jack would
like it.”
"Can't see, honey, what Mass* Jack's
got to do wlf it. He's dead and burled,
But if you can’t take de oaf. I’ll go see
if 1 can't do it fer you. Anyhow. I’se
gwine to investigate Mars© Phil Sheri
dan and git them carriage horses back.
If 1 has to prtend Cos take pizen to do
it.”
“Mammy” put on her brightest ban
danna handkerchief, a clean white
apron, and started for the camp, which
was about a mile distant.
In about an hour “Mammy” walked
back into tho large yard in front of
the house, leading by each hand a
carriage horse, wearing a brand new
halter around Ids neck. The mistress
saw her coming and met her at the
ftont gate.
“How on earth did you get them,
Mammy?” inquired the lady.
Mammy’s black face was damp with
perspiration and her fat chest fairly
panted for breath. She said: “Lera
me set down on de grass, honey, and
cotch my bref. Set down by me an’
I’ll tell yo’ all about It. I go to de
campt and I asked two or three men
in uniforms with muskets in dey
han’s to tell me whar I could find
Marse Phil Sheridan.
“ 'What do ypu want with him?'
" ‘Dat’s my business,’ says I. Af
ter skirmishing ’round I foun' de
general's tent. I walks In and drape
my best curtsey. ‘Sarvant, Marse
General,’ I says.
“ ‘What kin I do for you, madam?'
he says.
"‘I ain't no madam. Marse Gen-
I seed a twinkle in his eyes, and he
eral; I'se plain ole black mammy,’
says:
“ 'Well, Mammy, what kin I do fer
yo’?'
“Alt' bless you soul, honey, he said
that 'mammy' jes as natural as If he
had ben a born gentleman. Den I
dat soldiers had stole
my mlstls’ carriage horses as well as
ev’y othah goqfd hoss on de place. I
tole him he might keep the other
horses if I couldn't get ’em out of
him, hut dat I must have the car
riage horses, for m>* mistis was a
lady and her foot'wwso’uqualnted will
de groun’.
“ ’But your mistress Is a rebel,’ said
Maine General.
“Den I says: ’l' don’ know nothin’
'bout no rebel, Marse General. I jes
knows dat my mistis’ foot ain't ’qualnt
ed wld de groun', and, I'se boun' to hab
dose carriage hosses back.’
“Wid dat, Marse General laugh and
hollered to a man not very far off, all
dressed up in blue clothes arid brass,
and savs:
" 'Come here. Major; here’s some
thin' fer yo’ to hear.’
’’But when Marse General said dat
I seed a twinkle in his eye, and I
knowed somethin’ I’d said hit him in
de right place. De Major come, an’
I tole 'em bofe de same tale. As I got
through the major and the general
laughed, and de general says:
.“‘Well, Mammy, if, you recognize
the carriage hosses you shall have
them.’
“And dey rlz up, bofe of ’em. to go
wld me to' the peh whar the' soldiers
had put the hosses dey stole. As we
went 'long , I says; .a. i V
General, of oose I knows my
own hosses, but dem hosses gwine to
recognize me’de minute dey slap eyes
on me.”
“An', ’fo’ God. 'de minute dey saw
me cornin’ twtxt dem two fine white
men dey pricks up dey ears an' trotted
up to me jes as natural as if dey had
been circus hosses. And. mistis, de
general tole one of de soldiers to put
brand new halters on dese horses’
necks and han' 'em over to Mammy,
and here dey is, and I ain’t took no oaf
nor nothin' else."
