Padded Bathing Suits.

One thing has to be said to the
credit of the Atlantic City girls, all
of them, the tall, graceful girls from
the Seaside and Brighton, from the
Dennis and Hadd0n Houses, and
tie girls from the cottages as we'll
they do not use padded bathing
suits. A gentleman who has visited
several of the other and more pre-
tentlous seaside resorts has seen
these delusious and snares before
they were worn and then seen them
with their living skeletons inside of
the water. OF course they are for
that strictly spirituelle style Of
girl known ia the technology of the
dreSSmakers art as "plank-
shaped" At two or three
of the fashionable resorts these
symmetrical suits, with the pad
ing so arranged as not to be dis
placed by getting wet, have been
introduced, ard at Cape May they
are hired. AT the other places they
are sold. as they enable the
Wearer TO display dimensions Just
where dimensions are most lacking.
they are considered great public
benefit. At Atlantic City none of
the girls will have anything to do
with them. The PHILADELPHIA girl
especially regards them with scorn
and aversion. She ia not that kind

attention has been given to really

SATURDAYS DOCKET.
NotatiOns Made Thereon by the
Presiding Executive.

The near end of the watermelon
season is beginning to have an appre-
ciable effect on the usual smiling Wis.,
sage of Judge David Park Hadden.
This forenoon he looked careworn and
sad when he mounted the stirway,
Queen Anne style, leading to the rose
tinted chamber of justice, on Adams
street. mo, it's not that l love fall
and the cotton season less, but It's
that | love watermelon more" gently
sang the Judge in a staccato move
ment as he hung his hat on the floor
and laid his bluff umbrella on a cob
web.
Bob Fleece, Ed Thornton, Andrew
Harris, Tom Collins, Annie Austin,
John Taylor, Phillis Mcconnell and
Alice Hunter, all residing on Beal
street near Orleans, violated the ordi-
nance pertaining to the elogging of
sewers, for which they put up 81
EACH The Court remarked that it
made no difference who the parties
were that failed to come to time about
sewers and sewer connections, he
would charge them all, and see that
the good work Of making Memphis
healthy city would 60 bravely on.
Edward Ferguson was somewhat
under the influence of the demon
drink last evening. and he thought he
would sleep around among the mag
nolias and squirrels in Court Square
until the demon left him. Instead Of
carrying out his good intentions, he
was carried out by Keeper Cooley,
who received a horrible cursing for
his pains. Mr.. Ferguson gave up "a
for his nap, for which sum he could
have had the best room at the Pea
body, with breakfast and q cigar
thrown in.
Lou Grants case Of assault and
battery was continued.
John Furey was charged by Officer
Butler with a furious lot of crimes,
to-wit: being drunk, disorderly, resist.
ing an officer and carrying concealed
weapons. In his testimony the officer
stated that about II o'clock last night
he was informed that Furey was watt
ing around Owen Reily's saloon, Main
and jackson streets, for the probable
purpose OF waylaying a man named
Chamberlain. The officer and inform
ant took a position in front of the
saloon, and claim that they saw Furey
presently emerge from the place with
pistol in his hand. Butler immedi.
ately made for his man, but Furey man
aged to runin narrow alleyway, where
he was captured and dropped his re-
volver. Several witnesses we're ex
amined, and the case was fought inch
by inch by two barristers, one of
whom witnessed the arrest, and he
was given dead away by his colleague,
who, in starting out in legal grafton
for the defense, said: May it please
your Honor that at al hour when you
and |, all good citizens, were in bed,
and nobody but thugs and bats were
abroad ="
Hold on" said the Judge, esquire
Winters was out late enough to see the
arrest" The Squire explained by
stating he had been attending wake,
after which his partner went on with
his roof-lifting effort, which resulted
in the court fling the prisoner 81 for
being drunk, So for disorderly conduct
and $50 for carrying concealed weap-
Ons, also binding the defendent over

Another Sign of SstropOll-

A late daily Memphis paper con.
tanned a paragraph announcing that .
stranger had complained Of the dearth
of amusements at night in Memphis
and his consequent inability to pass
such time pleasantly and socially
His complaint can be Withdrawn, SC

grand open air concert. Everybody
will be there, or rather that
part of appreciative humanity
which enjoys fine music, elegant sur.
roundings, delightful breezes and cool
summer drinks.
No matter what an individual drinks
he will be welcome. Whether he
drinks the foaming beer which delights
the hearts of tho sons of Faderland;
the juice of the grape that Redeemed
beneath the summer sun in Spain or
on the vine clad hills of Italy; the
brandy from the land where the Mar
seillaise .stirs mems blood like bugle

old Kentucky, that land of beautiful
women and fine horses; the temperate
ice cold lemonade with or without q
stick, or lastly the third best from

THE MERCHANTS IN COUNCIL
Complaints Regarding Ruling
Regulations Governing Pro-
vision Merchants.

The meeting at the Merchants Ex-
change this forenoon was to discuss
the question Of meat purchases and
certain methods which are objection
able to the oonsignees here. The sys-
tenn OF buying from points Of supply
in the Northwest is mainly by tele-
graphic orders. The packer or ship
per, upon receiving the telegraphic
order, fills railway car with from
q, 900 to 10000 lbs Of sides, hams, or
such other species as may have been
ordered, then starts his bill of lading
with a draft for the amount of its
value, and the draft often arrives here
ten to twenty days ahead Of the meat.
The draft is paid upon presentation,
and in the interim Q part Of the meat
spoils or becomes damaged, when
the consignee has no recourse
upon the shipper except after
vexatious and often expensive
delays, and frequently none at all.
Only a day or two ago for example,
we'll known Front row house received
a car load Of meat in bulk for which
he had paid by draft nearly two weeks
ago. Upon arrival he found full 5000
pounds in the car tainted and unmer'
charitable. A customer to the south
had purchased car load Of meat some
time before from the dealer, and he
was anxious to forward the one allud-
ed to for his immediate use, but found
| it was not in good order, hence he was
greatly disappointed, and his customer
was also worried. The system in
| in vogue is not in accordance with
| Justice as viewed by the purchaser,
and they have sustained numerous
losses through the detective system.
In consequence of the trouble they
seek to effect remedy. The same
objections as are noted above often
apply to -four and other articles, The
members Of the Exchange, after dis
cussiop of the question, agreed to in
vestigate the matter and to suggest .
remedy. The resolution passed read
as follows: THAT committee ofseven
be appointed to investigate the pres
ent custom Of paying sight drafts on
cash purchases before the arrivasot
goods. and paying exchange on purr
chasss for Memphis delivery, and re
commend. some remedy"
The following committee was ap-
pointed by President Speed; John s.
Toof. M. Gavin, P. Mcintyre, O. L.
Fiokiin, L. M. Williams, j. L. Guth-
man. and H. Furstenheim. The com>
mittee meet for discussion and consul
tation at four o'clock this afternoon.
