The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-07-08

1t cannot be denied that the men, far
more than the women, offend against the
modesty, not to say decency, in the mat
ter of bathing costumes. Many of them
wear the dress of a gymnast, merely COW
ering the trunk, while those who have any
superfuous material in the garment are
few and far between. The explanation
given is that no man can swim in an old
fashioned bathing suit. 1t used to be said
that all women were guys in bathing cos
tune; but we have changed that now
adays, and many of the bathers are
really picturesque figures. Many wear
bathing corsets; nearly all have wide bath
ing belts, and gossip tells of flowing
tresses attached to bathing caps. was
in the surf one day when a lady lost one
of these arrangements, which went float
ing off like mass of seaweed, leaving
the wearer shorn for the moment of the
long hair which had enveloped her slen-
der figure as she walked down into the
water. Bat such cases are rare, There is
no regulation toilet, in the water or out,
at the seashore, where greater freedom is
tolerated, in matter of dress as we'll
as department, than is enjoyed in the
same circles elsewhere. Within certain
limits fashion favors everything, and if a
dress be well-fitt1ng, and the wearer have
that indefnable something known as chic,
whatever be its color or material, the tot
let is sure to be a success. Many of the
prettiest dresses for the morning are of
calico, while dainty dresses for afternoon
are of lawn, trimmed with lace. The in
dications are that dancing is not going to
be the popular source of amusement this
season that it was in the past. At pres
ent it is largely given up to the children.
As soon as the musicians have
taken their places, in the
evening, the children assemble
in the big parlor. The young ladies wear
no skirts to speak of, and the young gen.
tlemen's trousers are the most insignif-
cant part of their attire. They are chiefly
gorgeous in stockings and sashes. Red
legs, blue legs, pink legs. black legs and
parti- colored legs make up a kaleidos
cope. There is not much etiquette about
partners, boy sizes up girl he
wants to dance with and sometimes with
out the formaIity of an introduction, yanks
her to the floor. The girls are very ex-
tickle and have frequently
been known to desert young gentleman
for another while in the very act of begin
ming dance. On these occasions the un-
fortunate youth is jeered by his compan-
ions, while the heartless miss generally
goes off with bigger boy. But the dance

who lives nine or ten months in year
upon expectations, must make a good
deal of hay while the hot sun shines on
the inhabitants of overcrowded cities in
the broiling months of July and August.
And he generally makes it. If he don't it
is not his fault-not because he don't
know how to apply the principles of the
multiplication table to the bills of the
gudgeons who come his way. friend
of the writer recently addressed the pro-
prietor of hosiery at one of the fashion
able resorts, asking terms for one or two
months for himself and wife, with two
comfortable rooms. The answer came
promptly back written written in a beau
tiful hourishing hand upon neatly en-.
graved sheet of paper: "One hundred
dollars per week. Secure rooms by tele-
graph" The telegram has not been sent,
and will not be unless the gentleman is
successful in negotiating mortgage on
his house and lot. But, though it comes
high, people must have their sea-
shore recreation. There is to the great
majority of those who live in towns, a fas-
cination about it which attracts, while the
heat and dust at home spurs them on any
where for relief. The Atlantic coast from
New Jersey to Maine is dotted with these
resorts, and varied in kind as the charac-
ter and quality of their visitors. Atlantic
City and Cape May are to Philadelphia
what Coney Island and Long Branch are
to New York-the first, places where "the
mob" go for short stops and Sunday trips,
and the last more sought by the wealthy
and fashionable classes, who go to dance
and firt and show their fancy
bathing costumes. Then there is Ocean
Grove and Martha's Vineyard. Goody-
goody places, Block Island, Narragansett
and hundreds of lesser places scattered
around until the extreme north is reached
at Bar Harbor. But the great "tony"
place of all is Newport. Here the wealthy
nabobs of New York, with sprinkling of
their brethren from other cities, have
built up city on the sands, which, for
elegance and style and exclusiveness, has
no equal anywhere in the world. A ma
jority of those who go to Newport have

cottages of their own there, and make it a
summer residence. Some of the hand
soonest villas in the country are here, and
the Queen Ann style of architecture is
seen in its highest perfection of outward
beauty and internal inconvenience. l
have in mind now cottage which cost
upward of $25O,OOO, yet does not contain
as much available room as the ordinary,
medium-sized country residence. 1t is so
taken up with turrets, alcoves and gables
that the rooms are ill-shaped and cramped.
But the exterior beauty is there, set off by
a lawn that seems corner of paradise
itself.
Surf-bathing is the greatest attraction
to the majority of those who affect the
sea shore. Nearly everybody battles daily,
and those who do not, gather on the beach
andwatch those who do. A stroll along
the beach during the fashionable bathing
hours is well worth the time spent, if one
has keen sense of the ludicrous. Here
and there among the bathers can be seen
a type that is well known among the
young men as the sand crusher. 1t never
gets too fat to put in bathing suit and
is supremely unconscious of the ridicule
that inevitably follows it. And then she
does not stay in the water more than
fourth of the time hat stands or sits on
the beach looking at the bathers.
In pleasing contrast to the sand crush
er is the belle of the beach, who promen-
AIDES the sands for an hour in the morn
ing, parasol in hand. She rarely goes in
reach of the water and the costume that
she wears is what is known as the surf
dress. This style is very captivating.
The skirt-belts are worn moderately flow
ing,and if the wearer wishes to battle it re-
quires not little skill to keep them dry.
The panier is large and richly futed, and
the suit is accompanied by parasol or
small umbrella making the ensemble
graceful in outline and pleasing to the
eye; though it is a little bewildering to
the beholder fresh from the city. An
other typical sketch is that of the Ameri-
can citizen in the most approved male
costume for the surf. He is shifting the
salt air preparatory to a plunge, and is
determined to got full value for his out
lay.

rise with three velvet cockades. A blue
straw high hat, trimmed with red viewed
and peonies, is to be worn with this some
what eccentric frock. A great deal is
written of the revelry and indecorous dis
plays at the seashore, but much of it is
unduly exaggerated. Your correspond
ent has never been able to discover i'm
modesty disporting itself upon the sands
to any alarming extent. The ladies
nearly all battle in modest dark flannel
suits, with long heavy stockings and as
fully dressed as the most rigid taste could
require. OF course there are some excep-
tions to this general rule, but they are
numbered among the sensations which do
good part in making the sometimes
monotonous life bearable. While all cos
tunes are cut rather less decollete this
year than formerly, there are still some
whose trousers are short enough to show
shapely limbs encased in well fitting stock
ings. For ladies, who aim to be swim
mers, the old fashioned bathing suits are
given way to some extent as being too
cumbersome and it may be in time we
shall come still nearer the French style,
which covers its wearer just as little as
possible for decency. The French women
who wear these scanty suits, however, have
always an attendant waiting on the beach
with a long wrap in which to envelope
themselves as they come out of the water.
1t is remarked that few ladies this sea-
son wear no stockings, leaving the foot
and the leg bare below the short shirt.
"Why on earth do they do it," asked one
young girl of an older friend in my hear
ing. The friend smiled "My DEAR" she
said, "don't you know how easily legs
may be padded under stockings! Besides,
so few women have feet free from corns
and bunions that those who have, like to
show them"

DEVELOPING TRAFFIC.

DEVELOPING TRAFFIC.
Traffic can be cultivated the same as
majority of other things, for men are es-
sentially creatures of habit. A commun-
ity may be domestic and simple in the
tastes of its members, who buy little out
side of their home and seldom travel
abroad, or it can be educated to have
other wants and desires which in time
come to be looked upon as necessities.
In many sections of the country the
people have regard to their own wants
alone and, in cultivating the soil or en-
predecessors and with the object of sim
ply supplying their own few wants.
Such people do not care to travel and
though railway train may pass their
doors every hour of the day they are not
tempted to go away, or perhaps they may
not have money enough to indulge this
inclination even if it were present.
1t is possible for railway company to
educate the citizens of its tributary coun-
try to its own great advantage and, when
we consider to what advantage this may
be done, we wonder that the railway COM
panies do not improve to the utmost all
these opportunities. 1t is possible for
example to persuade the farmers to more
varied agriculture by the offer of special
rates of this kind in the growth of the fruit,
melon and garden truck business of the
southern states. The north ern tiles were
in need of these products of the SOUTH
but the people of the latter region did not
realize the fact until the railways en-
couraged them to attempt to supply the
demand.
We all know to what extent this depart
ment of traffic has grown. The compa-
MES have put on specially constructed
cars and, by charging low rates and max
ing fast time, have fostered and increased
both the supply aud the demand. The
profits are large to the carriers, and to the
producers and merchants. The conse-
quence is greater prosperity at the place
of production, and in many other respects
the railways are the gamers.
In the extreme northwest, where the
farmers thought that they could only
grow wheat, the railway companies have
encouraged the inclination to raise stock
and plant corn fields. In all parts of the
country the farmers and gardeners do not
know what gain might be to them by
cultiyating other things besides the sta
pies in which there is competition and low
prices.
At many towns manufacturing advant-
ages exist which are unimproyed. At
such towns it would be possible for the
railway officials to offer inducements which
might result in the establishment of new
industries which would give the road
large amount or valuable business, In
California the Southern Pacific has done
much in this direction and much to its
permanent advantage Louis Railway

DoINGS IN THE GREAT RAILROAD
WORLD.

The Missouri Pacific has come to the
front with its usual quarterly dividend.
This property is as valuable as any road
in the west, for it is an established trunk
line.
The Burlington has let the contract for
twelve miles of new road between Gales
burg and Rio, which will greatly shorten
the company's route to Rock Island. The
company is getting ready for the north
and south business.
The st. Louis & San Francisco is going
to be in fashion by building few lines in
Kansas. 1t is very poor company in
these days that does not contemplate in
vesting in Kansas extensions or branches.
SOME DIscoRD.
Some discord exists in certain of the
traffic alliances IN the west and south. The
troubles are not deep seated, and no rea-
son can be stated why all differences can
not be adjusted arbitration if need
be-so that rates cen be protected and the
most profit be realized from the bust
ness.
