fff fA9a THURSDAY, August "a,
The shipments OF boots and shoes from this mar
ket to t,latcs outside OF New England for the past
wees have been 44Sl9 cases, against % lt2 cases
for the core spending week last year.
Total shipments for the first SIX months OF tht
vear reg SIS cases, against sf7s59 cases tor same
period last year.
The shipments from Lynn for heweek have been
~. eases against 1923 cases for the Same week last
year. $50 ,o
been 3592 cases against 1884 cases for the cores
ponding week last year.
Shipments to the various Southern markets nave
been largely increased, and there have been nu'
merous small buyers from that section who are
here for the first time, as they have previously
made their purchases in New York or Baltimore.
They express themselves as well pleased with the
result of their visit and will undoubtedly purchase
hereafter from first hands. The demand for boots
continues active ror the season, and some mann
facturers decline to fill orders except at an adj
vance of about 81 per case on prices current at the
opening OF trade. Sole leather is fully as firm,
and the workmen have obtained an advance OF 81
per case since the first Of July, that really the
profit of manufacturers is not increased by the ad
vance Brogans are in fair demand, and there is a
steady demand for heavy goods for womens wear,
The stocks in manufacturers hands are very light
and buyers who are here now say they have not Tor
wears known few goods in store, and it would
seem that the production is restricted entirely 10
the filling of orders, The shipments this week
are somewhat less than those of the corresponding
week of last year, but the clearances for July ana
August are some lj0e0 IN excess OF those Tor
the same months last year.

The Grand Masquerade and Fancy
Dress Ball.

This event, which was looked forward
to with so many pleasing anticipations
by the ball-going public Of Phoebe, is now
numbered among the things of the past,
but its results will form theme OF con-
versation in Phoebe circles at least to the
close of the present century. Between
and 8 O'Clock on Friday evening the CON-
pany began to assemble, and soon after
Browns Hall was well filled. Notwith-
standing the general mirth and hilarity
the best order prevailed, and nothing oc-
CURED that marred, in the slightest de-
gree. the pleasure of those in attendance.
Dancing commenced about o. lock-the |
floor for the first few hours being appro-
priated almost exclusively by those in
masks and costumes The music con-
sisted of two violns, base viol, cornet
and fiuts-Mr. Alphin leading with the
violin.
After all the set dan ces had been per-
formed Messrs. Martin Tsrpey, Maynard,
Deal and Dayton were appointed as
Judges to bsstow the two prizes, consist
ing of handsome silver service baskets,
on the two best sustained characters IN
the assemblage. After a short consulta-
ton the first prize was awarded to Mrs.
Frank Dowd as the Estate of Nevada,
and the second to Mrs. Bella Bird as
"Pocahontas. ...
Altogether the affair was complete IN
every particular, and by no means lacked
variety. We were, at times, transported
back to the joyous carnival days OF New
Orleans, and again still further back to
the sumbre and mysterious days OF the
old Moorish Alhsmbra. Messrs. Jas. W..
