The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-01-15


wave week ago certainly the depression
of the last week has been correspondingly
great. Possibly the weather has been
partly TO blame. At all events it must
have been a relief to party gOers to have
the lull in the gaiety coincide with the
five days of chilling winds and incessant
rain. 1t has been odd to no
tice this season how entertainments
have been given in groups so to speak, the
three largest private balls having taken
place on three successive evenings, and
the card parties generaily following one
another in quick succession. The only
events 10 record to-day are number of
card parties and a few informal gather
sngs, while next week will be gay with the
assembly Tuesday evening, the german
Wednesday, a meeting Of the Evening
Euchre Club ana several private enter
taiuments. The younger social set are
also looking forward with interest to the
delights of a fancy dress cotiluon which
is to be given in the near future.
