The announcement of the engagement of Miss Mary Hull to Mr. Karl
Kaminer. of Columbia, o. C., will be the occasion of much pleasant com
ment and the sincerest of good wishes being extended to both Miss Hull
and Mr. Kaminer. Miss Hull is the elder daughter of Dr. and Mrs.
James M. Hull, and is one of the state’s recognized beauties. She is
slender and fair, with soft brown hair, blue grey eyes and a face the
soft Pure tints of which are to be found in some of the exquisite old
miniatures. The sweet womanly graciousness of her mother and personal
magnetism of her father are wonderfully blended in her own personal
ity and form a happy combination that is as rare as it is beautiful. Mr.
Kaminer is one of the best known young men in Columbia and is
prominently identified with one of the large fertilizer companies of the
South. Personally is a man of merit and charm and congratulations
innumerable will ’*« xtended to him, even though in them there be a tingo
of sadness at the mought that his marriage will remove from Augusta one
of her loveliest young women.
Interesting among the events of the coming week will be the mar
riage of Mjss Nannie Hulbert and Mr. Guy Bowen, which will take place
at twelve-thirty o’clock Tuesday afternoon, at the home of the bride’s
parents. Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Crapon Hulbert, 224 Broad street. Rev.
Mr. Ashby Jones will perform the ceremony, having returned to Augusta
for this specific purpose. There will be no attendants and a charming
simplicity will mark all the pretty details in connection with the wedding.
The bride will wear a dainty lingerie gown and a broad lace trimmed
white hat. She will carry roses and will enter with the groom. After
the ceremony there will be an informal reception of their friends and
refreshments, after which Mr. Bowen and his bride will leave on the af
ternoon train for a Northern trip.

The merchants are conspicuous among Augusta’s representatives ut
New York Just now. Some are buying, some have already placed orders
and others have returned. Fashion, which has held such an arbitrary
grip for the past season will, so they say, be unchanged in regard to the
r.ew suits end the question which Is perplexing the womenfolk is, what
■s to be the width of the new skirts. A woman just hack from New
York and who professionally took In all the very latest for her firm, Is
authority for the statement that some of the suits will have skirts only
one and one-quarter yards in width. With these will be worn no under
skirts, but soft satin bloomers.
AVhile this may be the vogue with some, it will be found that the peo
ple who count will wear skirts a little wider. They never follow the ac
centuated styles. There is a suggestion of It with moderations, which
mark all the well dressed women of the period. Take New York city
for instance and look at those who pass down Broadxvay. See those
whose equippages are the smartest and who are people of means, re
finement and culture; they are always notably well dressed, and always
look perfectly up-to-date, and yet there is never the suggestion of hor
rible extremes. Look at those who -are clad in skirts so tight that they
can hardly toddle dow’n. Broadway, whose clothes, so far as the blending
of colors go, rival Joseph’s famous coat. Asy who they are, If you don’t
know, and the answer is almost invariably, chorus girls and others of
their ilk.
Truly, by their clothes shall they he known.
Miss Annie Gregg AVright has returned home after a two months’ stay
in the North. Miss Wright was the guest in New York city of her sis
ter. Mrs. Ruth (Sallie Hammond Right), and enjoyed the kaleidoscopic
pleasures of New' York for several weeks and then, with Mrs. Ruth, went
to Maine, where they were the guasts of their aunt, Mrs. Washburn,
w'ho has a cottage at Sorrento.
A PROVERBIAL TRAGEDY.
The Rolling Stone and the Turning
Worm
And the Cat that Looked at a King,
Set forth o n the Road that Leads to
Rome—
For Youth will have its fling.
The Goose will lay the Golden Eggs.
The Dog must have his Day,
And nobody locks the Stable Door
Till the Horse is stolen away.
But the Rolling Stone, that was never
Known
j Leek before the Leap
idunged down the hill to the Waters
Still
That run so dark, so d^ep;
And the leaves were stirred by the
Early bird,
Who sought his breakfast where
He marked the squirm of the Turning
Worm—
And the cat was killed by Care.
—Arthur Guiterman, in Life.
