GRANITEVILLE.

There is very little annexation senti-

out OF ten votes, at least, favor having the
town remain as it is, until better
terms can be made. To have the new
town saddled with debt of 500, 900 to
start with. is not to the liking Of most
people in this district. 1t is also very ap-
parent that Thornton would dominate the

The Nodding Fumes of
 The Pretty Bridesmaid

Last year, at day weddings, bridesmaids wore hats almost universally. This year the very latest decree Is not to wear a hat but one long plume standing straight up at the back of the head, or an osprey or aig- rette. These last are the newest, and the bride of this autumn will give her bride maids her souvenir pin stuck fin an aigrette. instead of giving 1t by itself to be worn in the gown. At very pretty wedding this month the bridesmaids were gowned in love- ly gowns of pale pink mousseline de soie much ruftied, and worn over slips of taf- feta of an exquisite shade of rose color The bodies had yokes of lace with v- shaped fronts of lace set in and large bows of very deep shade of rose colored satin at one side of the belt and on the left side of the waist. These bows were wired stiffly so as to stand out and form a butterfly effect.
 With these dainty gowns the girls, who were eight in number, wore black silk stockings and patent leather slippers, white gloves, and long black feathers in the hair, standing straight up at the back as described, and fastened with lovely

Woman in Music as
 Presented by Mrs. Randle

A representative number of Birmingham musicians and music lovers attended "Woman In Music," given at the Seminary Friday evening by Mrs. Lulie Randle Of Nashville, assisted by Miss Woods, Miss Meyer and Miss Morton of the Seminary.
 Tn opening the exercises, Mrs. Rande read an interesting and instructive paper on women as composers. She said that the nineteenth century has been called the cen- tury of woman; that in many walks of life busy women, making an enviable reputa- tion for themselves, could be found. She gave a number of examples showing how women had left their imprint on music through the dedication of composers. But that in the glorious art of music not so much had been done in the way of compost tion as shou--- be done. Down along the ages," continued Mrs. Randle, "a number of women composers were found.''
 Among those mentioned was a sister of A4~uerick the Great; Mendelssohn's sister, Fanny; Clara Schumann. Chaminade, Mrs. Beach, Margaret R. Long and Helen Hood.
 In closing, Mrs. Randle said: "I claim for women a position among the composers. We realize that little has been done. but may we not hope that the little is but a forerunner of what may follow, believing that only by constant and exemplary ef- fort, by an earnest love of art, can she ever place herself beside the great com- posers of the world. May we not hope and believe that her aim may be. not to labor to attract, merely to please for the passing moment but to leave echo of what she has loved. felt and suffered. and that her works will be commended because they are good for a woman to have written, but because --ey are works entitled to some true rank in the sacred city of art.'
 Mrs. Randle is a charming representative Of her own ambitions for woman, playing

with exquisite expression and depth of feel- ing. She rendered two pieces of her own eonposlaon, 1seyerle ana cplnninS Song,' which gave decided promise fin the field of composition.
 "The Romance" in six chapters, which was the last number on the programme, is the conception of Margaret Long, of Bos- ton.
 Mrs. Randle told the story of each chap ter delightfully."- before playing the compo- sitions. This composition Is very clever one.
 Miss Woods charmed the audience with her playing. not only evincing great talent, but the most careful training The soft legato tones of her violin in the Grade Song" were most effective.
 Miss Meyer, who is a member of the faculty of the seminary, rendered two charming solos. Miss Norton, the accom- panist for the evening, is one of the most accomplished musicians in Birmingham and she was heard to great advantage on Friday evening"
 The ladies of the Advent desire to ex- press their appreciation for the assistance of the seminary faculty.

CHEAP RATES
To Porto Rico and Other Points in the
 West Indies.

Announcement was made few days ago in these columns that the West h. dian Excursion company, of Atlanta, Ga, would conduct an excursion about Novem- Der 10 to Porto Rico and other DO nts in the West Indies. The parties who have charge of this excursion are among the best and most careful business men of Att lanta. The fact that they have chartered a splendid sea-going vessel with the ca pacity to carry about $50 flrst-class pa sengers and have arranged every conven- fence and comfort for them, shows that they have been moving in the right direc- ton.
 It is said that the round trip, including all the expenses of whatever character to Porto Rico will be very low. Many appli- cation have already been filed at the At lanta office, and, of course, the first $50 people will be the ones who will get the tickets as only that number can be ac- commodated
