GAYETY AT TYBEE.'
last Evening at , the South End'*
Hotel Bull.
After suelf a hot day as yesterday in
tovn, the thought of a breezy even
ing at Tybee becomes particularly al
luring. This, and the prospect of the
weekly dance last night at the South
K'ul, were pleasures seductive enough
t 0 attract a large crowd to the island.
The "Tybee habit,” as those superior
p, rsor.s who live at the gay resort are
„ont to call it, grows more settled each
, ,v, and unlucky folks who are doom
f,j to sleep eighteen miles or so away
fiom the roaring ocean, at least are
determined to spend as much of their
time* in its neighborhood as fate, in
the shape of railway schedules, will
permit.

Mrs. J. C. Haile chaperoned a little
party of girls, entertained at supper
fcy Miss Nellie Haile. They were Miss

the MIMS KINDERGARTEN.
11 will be remetpbered that when
Mr. and Mrs. Florance Minis left some
weeks ago for their country home near
Clarkesville, the Morning News print
e,l a statement that it was their in
tention to open a free kindergarten
there for the summer and that Miss
Carolyn Bailey would be in charge. In
this connection the following editorial
from the Habersham County Adver
tiser will be of very general interest:
the Minis Free Kindergarten for
the children of Clarkesville and vi
cinity has been open a week and is
doing beautiful work. The kindergar
ten is a very expensive school to equip,
but Mr. and Mrs. 'J ; F. Minis have
A WIMM4WI * TKkht 1M fcid St**itM Niv MkINW
established one here for two months
and secured one of the best teachers
in the South, and opened it entirely
free to the patrons. It is a beautiful
gift to the little children of this com
munity. At first the number of pupils
were limited to twenty-five, but so
eager were the rpothers to enter their
children that on the opening aay there
were twenty-four applicants, and see
ing this eagerness more chairs and
other necessary articles were ordered
so as to extend the number to thirty.
"Miss Carolyn Bailey, the teacher
in charge, is a graduate of the Kate
Baldwin Free Kindergarten, of Sa
vannah. She is a charming lady of
culture end refinement, apd her won
derful skill and gentleness quickly
wins every child to her. The way she
cau control and interest thirty little
children under eight years of age is
marvelous."
FOR CHARITY’S SAKE.
A meeting of The King’s Daughters’
Union will be held this afternoon at 6
o’clock in the Sunday-school room of
the Independent Presbyterian Church.
The principal object to be considered
is ‘‘Tybee Day," which the association
will give for the benefit of its charities
next .Tuesday. The Central has offered
the Uhion a percentage of the tickets
sold by the members on that day, and
the ladies interested hope that all
those who wish to aid their work will
avail themselves of this opportunity.
There wil) be a committee in charge of
the sale of tickets, with Mrs. F. A.
Webster as chairman, and tickets may
be purchased at the depot frjm mem
bers of the Union, who will be present
for this purpose.
LAUNCH PARTY .TO ISLE OF HOPE.
A charming launch party was among
the delightful social events of last
evening." The hostess was Miss Capie
Ellis and her guests Miss Laleah
Adams, Miss Jessie Powell, Mr. Pow
ell and Mr. William Robinson. The
party left the city at 6 o’clock and ran
around to Isle of Hope. The twilight
shaded into moonlight as the launch
sped along its way and the long
stretches of marsh, dotted at intervals
with'clumps of pines and oaks, ottered
a setting that made the trip particular
ly attractive. The party- was chaper
oned by Mrs. Charles Ellis and Mrs.
Frank George. The trolley brought its
returning members from. Isle of Hope
to the city.

IN LINEN AND PONGEE.
Of the morning frocks seen, says
the Philadelphia Times, the summer
gown which is most popular with wo
men is the linen one, and white heads
the list. These linen frocks are very
smart, made absolutely plain, with
only strappings, .stitching and but
tons for ornamentation, or trimmed
with heavy linen laces or antique lace.
Then there are applique designs of
colored linen on the white dresses. The
white linen which has a tingue of
ecru in it is considered very stylish,
trimmed with narrow bands of the new
colored embroidery—done in mercer
ized floss. Some of the more preten
tious linen gowns are made over taf
feta silk linings, and these trimmed
with hand embroidery cost as much as
silk gown.s
Pongees vie with the linens in pop
ularity. Very frocks are those
of white pongee trimmed with ecru
lace in the darkest shades. The filet
laces are much used with this mate
rial.
White mohairs are to he reckoned
with in a summary of the fashionable
white materials of the season. The
newest fancy is to trim these gowns
with stitched cloth bands.
THE BACK- OF HER BELT.
I saw her go shopping in stylish attire;
And she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
Her wnlk was as free as a springy steel
wire.
And many a rubberneck turned to ad
mire
And she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
She wondered if all . the contraptions
back there.
Were fastened just right—'twas an un
ceasing care,
So she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
I saw her at church as she entered her
pew;
And she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
She had on a skirt that was rustly and
new
And didn’t quite know what the fas
tenings might do.
So she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
She fidgeted round while the first
prayer was said,
She fumbled about while the first
hymn was read
O she felt
Of her belt
At the back. •
Jack told her one night that he loved
her like mad;
And she felt
For her belt
At the back.
She didn't look sorry, she didn't look
glad—
She looked like she thought, "well,
that wasn't so bad.”
And she felt
For her belt
At the back.
But—well, don’t think 'twas a great
deal of harm,
For what should have the maiden have
found but an arm f<
When she felt
For her belt
At the back.

IN A SEALED VERDICT.
Decision of Jury In Mrs. Grogan’,,
C’use Against Trolley Lines.
The City Court jury engaged In the
effort to decide the equities of the case
of Mrs. Katie E. Grogan against the
Savannah, Thunderbolt' and Isle of

sealed verdict yesterday afternoon. The

Mrs. Grogan sued the company for
$2,500 damages for personal injuries.
She was a passenger on one of the
company’s cars some months since and
was injured in alighting from it. sKe
charged in her petition that the inju
les resulted from the carelessness of
the conductor and motorman of the
car in starting it violently and sudden
ly forward before she reached the
ground, thus causing her to fall heav
ily in the street. These allegations of
negligence the defendant denied.
The plaintiff was represented at the
trial by Twiggs & Oliver and the de
fendant by Osborne & Lawrence.

A Vacation Full of Health, Ileiit Anil
I Enjoyment.
To plan a summer vacation that
shall bring the maximum of rest,
health and comfort with the minimum
of expense and discomfort is not al
ways easy. Fortunately, the opportu
nities for rest and recreation within
the reach of all are becoming more
numerous each year through the
energetic efforts of some of the
leading railway linOs to make known
the attractiveness of places somewhat
remote from "the busy haunts of men.”
There is no region In the world
which offers so many attractions to
the vacationist who loves the untouch
ed beauty of nature as can be found
in that extensive tract in Canada
known as the Muskoka Lakes District.
This region, Including within Its
boundaries more than eight hundred
(800) lakes and rivers, is situated in
the northern part of Ontario, east of
of Georgian Bay and north of Lake
Ontario. The point of embarkation
fof the trip on the Muskoka Lakes is
one hundred and twelve miles from
Toronto, and is reached by the Grand
Trunk Railway.
The lakes in this vast region which
stand out in more prominence than the
others are the Muskoka Lakes, com
posed of three bodies of beautiful,
translucent water, their names being
Lake Muskoka, Lake Rosseau, and
Lake Joseph, all three being connected
and giving a continuous steamboat
route of more than fifty miles. Being
at an altitude of orje thousand feet
above the sea-level, this region Is pe
culiarly suited by the purity of the air
to bring health and strength to those
whose physicial and mental natures
have become exhausted through too
close application to indoor work.
Rates at the hotels are unprecedent
edly low, and the accommodation ex
cellent.
