SOCIETY.
FOR NEW YEAR’S BALL
Savannah Chapter, U. D, C., Di
cnaaed Plans Yesterday.
Discussion of the annual New Year’s
ball made the meeting held yester
day afternoon by SaVannah Chapter,
U. D. C„ an important and interest
ing one. It was especially called for
the purpose of considering the ad
visability of the ball, and the best
means of preparing for It, and Mrs.
Hull, who presided, asked for individual
opinions from each member of the
chapter present. It was unanimously
decided to .follow past custom, and
gide the ball, which enables the chap
ter to defray, in part, the expenses
of its charitable and edubational work.
Mrs. Hull presented 'a. summary of
the amount donated to such work each
year by the Savannah Chapter. With
between 200 and 260 members, an aver
age total of S6OO is distributed an
nually. Of this, S3OO goes to local chlar
ity. Four girls are supported at the
Winnie Davis Memorial School in
Athens, at an expenditure of S2OO a
year. Four pupils are placed in
schools in Savannah, and are supplied
with all necessary books, stationery,
etc. The regular pension list includes
veterans and widows of veterans, who
receive at least $25 a month. The Win
nie Davis Memorial at Athens has be
come so popular that there is not room,
enough for the demand. It is, Mrs.
Hull said, the only modern up-to-date
dormitory there, and many more girls
could be taken care of, if there were
rooms in which to put them. The Sa
vannah Chapter's work in connection
with the establishment of the Memorial
Hall, arid its hearty support of it since
are well known. This Is only one
feature of its philanthropic work, for
the continuance of which the annual
ball is given.
It will take place this year, Dec. 29
at tbe Guards’ Hall, and, In view of
the fact that so much of the Daughters
work benefits those who were once
military men, it is hoped that the mili
tary of Savannah will take a special
interest in the entertainment, and aid
it every w*ay possible. The military
reature will be especially emphasized
this year, and all members of the mili
tia will be asked to wear uniform.
Those who will be invited to act as
chaperons are Mrs. W. B. Stephens.
Edward S. Elliott. Mrs. W. W.

LACHLAN M’IMTOSH SALE.
For the benefit of its patriotic work
a sale was given yesterday afternoon
by Lachlan Mclntosh Chapter, D. A.
R., and proved a successful as well
as an attractive affair. Mr. Murphy's
piano rooms, under the Guards’ Armory,
lent themselves admirably to the needs
of the occasion, and, with many lovely
flowers, and the fancy articles for sale
artistically arranged, looked very pret
ty indeed.
Quite an attraction was the Lucky
Tree, in charge of Mrs. A. E. Moyneio,
who was assisted by Miss Mary Comer,
Miss Lily Lynah, Miss Julia Hunter,
Miss Anna Hunter, and Mias Lola Moy
nelo. The tree was beautiful to see,
hung with makebelieve oranges and
peaches, and each purchase w'as re
warded with a prize. The little girl
who drew the lucky number, six, was
awarded the chief prize, a doll house,
given by Mrs. Bryan, and can get it
by calling at the rooms this morning.
The recipe books, a little collection
of private tested recipes, with covers
decorated by Savannah artists, were
very much In demand, and those who
were unable to purchase them may

“TEMPERANCE*' PI'NCH.
The hostess who is a strict prohibi
tionist is sometimes at a loss for good
drinks to serve at her afternoon re
ceptions. Tea end chocolate are so
commonplace that she is not to be
blamed if she does cast her eyes long
ingly at the punch recipes and wish
her principles were not quite so strict.
However, there is nothing more lntnxi
eatingly delicious, in the perfectly
proper use of the term, than fruit
punch.
To make this consoling temperance
beverage put one pound each of rasp
berries and currants Into a bowl. Mash
them to a pulp, add four quarts of
water and let the mixture stand cov
ered for two or three hours. Boil four
cups each of granulated sugar and
water, dropping in a bit of lemon rind.
Ten minutes' boiling is long enough.
When cold add the Juice of eight lem
ons and six oranges. Strain both mix
tures and pour them together. To
give it smartness add one pound of
candied cherries and a quart of finely
cracked Ice.
Not the most enthusiastic member of
the white ribbon society could object
to this; in fact, even a toper -would
enjoy a cup of it. Besides it gives
you a chance to use your new punch
bowl, and you have no idea what a
pretty showing the drink makes.
MODERN BED COVERINGS.
The more expensive bed coverings are
of the finest of fine linen, embroidered
by hand in satin stitch, eyelet em
broidery or some such design, while
the bureau and dressing table scarfs
are to correspond. For ordinary wear,
plain linen coverings and pillowcases
prettily hemstitched are In excellent
taste also.
The modern bedroom dispenses with
carpet, and has a highly polished floor
or Japanese matting covered with hand
some rugs, which can be lifted and
shaken very often.
These simple, but elegant furnish
ings, with a plain wall paper and dainty
window draperies, give a freshness and
sense of comfort that was entirely
lacking in the bedroom of fifty years
ago, with its cumbersome dark furni
ture and heavy, unhealthy hangings.
CONSOLING.
Two gaunt specters. Bronchitis and
Pneumonia, met in one of the thor
oughfares of the city.
“What’s the matter, old fellow?" ask
ed the Bronchitlß specter. “You are
looking blue.”
"Matter enough,” replied the Pneu
monia specter; “I’ve Just been look
ing over the opinions of the weather
prophets and they predict a mild win
ter.”
“Cheer up!’ cried Pneumonia, hilar
iously. “I, on the other hand, have
Just been gladng over the winter’s
fashions. The women's fur coats, I
am delighted to say, are made with

MANY AT FUNERAL OF
MR. JOSEPH EDWARDS.
Feelings of the White People To
ward Negroes Pooling Down.
The funeral of the late A. Joseph
Edwards, the planter who was mur
dered by a negro near Daisy, Ga., on
Saturday afternoon, was held from
his home, at 10 o’clock yesterday
morning. The Interment was In the
family burial ground at Sandsfleld
Church Cemetery. The funeral was
one of the largest th4t had been held
In that county in years, people coming
from all parts of the county to pay
their last respects to one who had
held such a high place in their es
teem. Many floral offerings were sent
both to the house and to the cemetery.
Mr. Charles G. Edwards of Savan
nah, a cousin of the murdered man,
returned from the funeral last night.
He stated to a Morning News reporter
that the Intense race feeling the mur
der had aroused, had been considera
bly allayed and there were no longer
any serious danger of a race riot, or
further trouble of any kind between
the whites and the negroes. Indigna
tion is still high, but passion has giv
en way to reason and the people real
ize any demonstration would be con
trary to the wishes of the relatives of
the deceased and an injury to the
fair name of the county.
