FIVE HANDED EUCHRE.
Unique * d Pretty Card Party Given
by Mr. Overton.
An original and interesting idea in
the plan and a pretty uniqueness in
the favors made the card party given
yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Arthur
Overton most attractive. Everything
was arranged to suggest the appoint
ments of the dressing table. The tally
cards were decorated with pictures of
dressing tables, and were prettily let
tered and ornamented. To each of
the tiny individual score cards was
tied, with a pink or blue satin ribbon,
a little powder puff, looking very
Frenchy and frivolous when the tray
ful was passed about among the
guests on their arrival. Five-handed
euchre, was played.
The tiniest of puff boxes and minia
ture combs and brushes were dis
tributed for the twenty hands, and for
the lone hands of ten, there were toy
scissors, combs, mirrors, pink pin
cushions, bottles of cologne, and little
packages of powder and rouge.
Most appropriately, all the decora
tions were in pink and lovely long
stemmed pink roses and in
tall cut glass vases surrounded the
guests on mantels and stands.
The prizes carried out the idea of
the affair. They were a Colonial glass
puff box and powder puff, a small sil
ver hand mirror, and a silver hat
brush. They were won by Mrs. H. H.
A PRETTV FROCK FOR A LITTLE GIRL.
This little frock gives the now very popular long-shoulder effect, which is
most becoming to small children. It is pretty made of white drilling, or double
warp, which comes at 12% and 15 cents a yard. The design is embroidered in
front in white working cotton, and the bands coming down the sides are briar
stitched in the same. Designed for girls from 5 to 12 years of age.

A pleasant incident of the afternoon
was the reading of the following letter
from Mrs. H. M. Branch.
Mrs. L. W. Dupont, Recording Sec
retary, Savannah Chapter, U. D. C.
My Dear Mrs. Dupont: The high com
pliment paid me by the Savannah
Chapter, U. D. C., in conferring upon
me the title of honorary president has
touched me deeply, and I beg that you
will express to the chapter my heart
felt appreciation and assurance of my
continued devotion to them and their
glorious work.
The Savannah chapter stands for all
that is good and noblest in life—love
of state, truth of history, devotion to
a sacred cause, loving care of the liv
ing, and faithful care of the dead he
roes of the Confederacy.
To be a member of such an organiza
tion means much, and I know of no
greater honor than the one just be
stowed upon me.
During my long illness my greatest
grief has been that I could be of so
little use, could accomplish so little for
the Confederate cause.
If it is given me to return to my
home in health and strength, proud
as I am of being honorary president,
I shall yield to none in real active
work for the cause. With renewed
thanks and best wishes foV the chap
ter’s success in its every undertaking,
I am, faithfully yours,
Marie E. Branch.

IX FANCY DANCES
Little Folks Were Seen at Miss
Stnlts’ Midwinter Soiree.
The midwinter soiree of Miss Stults'
dancing class drew a large number of
interested relatives and admiring
friends to the Guards Armory last
evening. The affair was an unusually
pretty one and the fancy dances were
wonderfully well done by the little
people who were down for special parts
on the programme.
Among the very little folks, there
was a captivating “Fairy Dance” by
Miss Yettie Mirsky, a spirited "Military
Dance” by Miss Ruth Morrison, and a
song and dance by diminutive Miss
Georgia Dickinson, whose naivete was
altogether charming, and who not only
sang clearly but went through her steps
with wonderful precision.
Somewhat older, perhaps, but not
much taller, was Miss Pauline Gard
ner, who did the Cachuca very cleverly.
Another very little dancer was Miss
Doris Lyon, who was a quaint figure,
dressed to represent a hollyhock. Miss
Freda Wolfson sang "Sly Musette” and
danced with much grace.
I Miss lit he 1 Guckenheimer, another
very young lady, gave a charming song
and dance, and Miss Mildred Gucken
heimer contributed to the programme a
song and two dances that were among
the best numbers. These two talented
little sisters were graceful and attrac
tive figures on the floor, and were
warmly applauded.
The Bohemian Dance by Miss Sadie
Sheftall. and the Flower Dance by Miss
Annie Jones, were both particularly
good numbers, and the Spanish Bolero
by Miss Dolores Levy one of the best.
There was nothing prettier on the
programme than the Dance Gracioia
by Miss Riette Levy, whose natural
grace and lightness of movement were
especially well suited to the steps.
Miss Alice Battey, all dressed In
green, with a wreath of white flowers
in her hair, was seen in pretty scarf
dance. . . .
There were some good numbers by
boys, a sailor’s hornpipe by Solomon
Sheftall and a song and dance by
Lawrence Semon. and some excellent
ensemble dancing. The little children
who took part in “A Sleighbeil Frolic”
were Doris Lyons, Katherine Sinrer,
Della Moore, Edith Maxwell, Ruth
Morrison, Fannie Evelyn Cohen,

Favorite.

COLLEGE AFFAIRS
TO BE DISCUSSED.
Committee of Shorter College to
Meet In Rome Tuesday.
Important matters affecting the fu
ture of Shorter College, Rome, will be
discussed at a meeting of a commit
tee, which will be held in Rome Tues
day. One member of this committee,
which consists of five persons, is Rev.
Dr. J. D. Jordan, who will leave Mon
day, making a short stop in Atlanta
en route.
One of the questions to be discussed
is whether the college shall be con
tinued under the present management
—that is whether it shall be practical
ly leased to the president in whom
will be vested the right to elect the
members of the faculty, and who is
also responsible for the financial
showing—or whether the trustees shall
take over the active management of
the college, elect the faculty them
selves and assume the responsibility
of the financial management as well.
The committee will also be called on
to consider the curriculum for the
coming year. Dr. Jordan, is in favor,
under existing conditions, of contin
uing the present arrangement. He
says the college is full to overflowing,
and another dormitory should be built
for the accommodation of the pupils.
An agent has been appointed to raise
the necessary money for this purpose,
but he will not be able to start a can
vass of the state until after July 1.
He has been limited to that time in
order not to interfere with the effort
that is being made by Monroe Col
lege to raise money for similar pur
poses. With the new building added
to Shorter College it is possible that a
new arrangement of the management
may be decided on.
REV. DR. M’CORKLE WILL
RETURN NEXT WEEK.
Several members of the First Pres
byterian Church have received letters
from Dr. McCorkle announcing that
he would return to Savannah some
time next week. It is thought that he
will be here In time to conduct the
weekly prayer meeting service next
Wednesday evening. His vacation at
St. Augustine has very much improved
his health, he has written members
of his church.
“Litit* Georgia Mngnet” Was Under
Arrest.
Word comes from New York that
Annie Abbott, known to fame as the
“Georgia Magnet," suffered arrest in
that city several days ago. Miss Ab

attention from the public platform two
or three years ago.
The "Georgia Magnet” was charged

terbury. Conn. Her manager, Theo

THE PLYING MATCH HEADS.
Danger Constantly Attendant Upon
Their le In Homes.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
It would be Interesting to know how
many pairs of lace curtains are destroy
ed, how m’any fires are started, and how
much property is destroyed annually
in this country by the "flying heads”
of the trust matches. Equally interest-

ing would it be to know how manf
people are burned in the hands and
face, and how m’any people barely es

annually by these self-same "flying
heads.’’
What the "flying head" of a trust
match may do Is illustrated graphically
In the experience of Philip Pfell of 74*
Evanston avenue on Sunday afternoon.
In this instance the "flying head" of *
match Ignited the parlor ourtains in
Mr. Pfell's residence, and spread to the
sheet music lying on the piano before
the work of extinguishing the blaze
could be commenced. Mr. Pfell, we
learn, alarmed the other members of
the family, and returned to the parlor
carrying a p’ail of water. The blaze
had made such headway that he was
unable alone to fight it. Occupants of
the three other fiats hurried to his aid,
and an aiarm of fire was sent in. When
the firemen arrived several paintings
had been destroyed, and the piano was
ruined. The damage is estimated at
about SBOO. •
The head” of the match is
recognized as a constant danger in al
most every household, and it is a dan
ger that should be removed speedily,
either by the match trust or by the
law.
