The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1894-01-07

The New Year opened brightly, and
Monday was an exceptionally tantalizing
day, and was thoroughly enjoyed by the
young people, being the last of the holt
days. The foot ball game called out many
of society'a buds, and two brave young
men escorted some half dozen brlght-eyed
debutantes, who heartily cheered for Sa-
vannah at each advantage gained by
her team. One of the spectators in the
grand stand was so fascinated by a pair
of black eyes behind a barbed-wire-like
veil that he was Indifferent as to which
side were the deeper in the mud, or
nearer the desired goal The
pair of black eyes makes her debut
next winter, and has already
one admirer, who insists that
she has a sweet disposition, judged by the
curves Of her mouth. Monday there was
pause in the rapid whirl of society
There are not so many people in the
world but that the untimely withdrawal
of one, from the noisy turmoil, is felt by
many. And when the angel of death
visited home full OF happiness and took
away young wife and mother, the voice
of society was hushed in sympathetic
silence. Even those who slightly knew
young Mrs. Campbell Wylly, admired her

bearing and her lOvable disposition
which spoke through her soulful eyes.
Mr. Gibbs Gardiner, of the Augusta
Evening News, from time to time produces
some poetic digressions. which are doubt
less prophetic that he will not long tarry
as local editor on the staff, but will be
soaring higher in the realms of journal
ism. "The Flower of Truth" is among
his recent productions. The following is
one of its stanzas:
MY flower, though not so gaudy.
So ravishingly bright,
Can illumlne with its loneliness
And i'll my soul with light;
Can make OF earth heaven,
My being al with calm,
BY the witchry of its presence
And the magic OF its balm.
The fourth german of the season was
danced at the Guards armory last Tues
day evening. The dancing began much
earlier than usual, and by Q o'clock the
hall was comfortably filled with dancers
A very pretty and artistic effect was
created by the incidental blending of
colors of the gowns worn by the attrac-
tive array of young women. Savannah
has long since redeemed It's reputation in
regard to the looks of the girls. and an
impartial observer remarked the very
pretty and well dressed women that one
meets in Savannah. The figures
led by Mr.. Randolph Ander-
son, showed to advantage the bouquet of
colors, lilacs Of the same blending, pinks
on the same tone, and a generous sprinkl-
ing of white, which acted as a bas-relief
TO the shades and tints. A symphony in
pale green, with a touch of pink and a
furry edge on the skirt, was particularly
admired A com Animation of blue silk
velvet and pale yellow crepe Isse and
ribbon was worthy an artists taste.
