IN THE CANEBRAKE.
Two Social Events, One at Faunsdale, the Other at Uniontown, Which
 Were Regal Gems.


 FAUNsDALE, Aug. 29.-ISpeoal Corre- spondence. l-There assembled merry party of young folks at the Academy hall last evening, the 18th instant, to partici- pate in the last entertainment of the sea son. To vary tue monotony of things "we girls" determined to show our ap- precation of the many attentions shown us by the town boys all during the sum- mer, and it was done in this manner: lm- portant meetings were held and commit- tees appointed and by Tuesday everything was arranged for delightful german and hop. All day long little white winged messengers' were seen fitting along Main street and the boys were on the qui vive to know from whence they came.
 Misses Otey and Shepard gracefully re- ceived the guests as they arrived and Misses Minge and Nelson served as floor managers, for all the privileges of leap year were allowed on this occasion. Promptly at Il the german began and it was one of tho most beautiful ever seen here. The favors were all rosebuds, and to see the coats of the young men festooned with these, the queen of all flowers, was sight worth seeing.
 Each gentleman received his favorite rose when chosen and the writer noticed the following ones worn by them: MT. Rob Coleman, one of the belles of the evening, wore red roses and looked
 
 MT. Bob Hart of Uniontown wore gar | land of white ones and il is needless to mention the emblem of these innocent | buds, for he is yet "too young to love.' Mr. Herbert Pitts wore pink roses and | looked very handsome.
 Mir. George Adams, the pet of the fair | sex, was arrayed in Marechal Mel roses, 1 but we do not know of whom he was jeal- ! ous.
 MT. E. l.. Nonnenm macher wore a variety I of h ioh ono ia | MT. l.. s. Mumford wore pin in his | coat, thus proving he was not forgotten. Messrs. Johnson received a number of | favors and were greatly ''rushed." MT. Clint Alexander wore corsage bou- quet of malmaisons and was very popular. Messrs. Mask and Westbrook wore white | roses in their hair (we failed to find the hair), but they are both charming boys. We counted seventeen pins in MT. Minge | Selden's coat and trust that he was not 'stuck.'' ''
 Messrs. J. H. Minge, Jr., and Roy Alexander, two typical Spaniards, wore | their pockets full of buds. The buds in this bouquet of roses were | Jimmie Alexander, Lewellyn Daggan, Brooke Adams and otey Minge. They made their debut and were great favorites, l for they are lovely boys.

 beauty the residence of MT. and Mrs. J. | one of the most enjoyable social affairs
 held in this section for many years, given | in honor of Misses Poindexter and Broth
