The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-08-13

fan months when al nature is look llS
forward TO the desolation that takes place
when the trees are bereft Of their green
leaves and the flowers are withered ana
gone; but how much more appropriate is
II to this season OF the year in Savannah
when all who can get away by hook OF
by crook have taken either steamer or
train and gone 30 lands as far removed
from the torrid heat of the past few days
as possible. The streets are deserted Of
their erstwhne gay promenadors, with
their fresh organdy dresses and dainty
lowered hats. What has become Of the
organdies? 1t makes ones heart sad TO
think of their wilted, rumpled gowns that
so short a white ago detied the
weather, as they graced the windows Of
the downtown shops. High collars and
stocks are things of the past, gloves have
long since ceased TO be remembered, ana
as for fancy veils-wel the very thought
Of them makes one heave a sigh of dis
tress Surplice dresses, palm leaf fans
and worn, tired faces attest to the in
tense heat of the past week Every even
ing the trolley cars go laden with heated
humanity trying in vain for a breath Of
fresh air. Even the West India hurri-
cane was talked of with doubtful
fear, for at least it meant a little
change of temperature. Society has Set
tied down to its regular midsummer
apathy and dullness and there is absolute
~ nothing going on The younger set kept
the ball moving as long as they held to-
gether, but, like the Old song, zone by
one" they have departed, until the few
left have had to retire for want of ma
teriai, so all that the "stay-at-homes' can
do is to scan with eager eyes the letters
that come from the mountains and the
springs in cooler chimes than ours and
Glsh we could be there, too.
