: bodices have lost some of their pristine
freshness of idea, the designers have in
troduced the blouse of tinted taffeta over
spread with a sheath of embroidered mus
lin Right through the remainder of the
warm season these will be extensively
worn, and some of the transparent en-
broidered wells of white over rose, blue
or green Innings are marvels of fair nee
dlework. 1t is possible to pay as high
as $15 for set of three pieces for lay
ing over a silk foundation. Where such
a price is asked the needlework is all
done by hand in French convent on the
thinnest handkerchief batiste.
When the autumn begins to create q
change in the momentous affairs of dress
the blouse waists will appear under the
guise of black and white silk muslin or
chiffon webs richly embroidered and laid
over tinted silk Innings. They can be
worn with any sort of silk, satin or fine
cloth skirt, and those women who invari-
ably force every season have been ap-
pearing in beautiful hand-worked bodices
at smart country house morning enter
tainments.
In heavier and more durable goods the
novelty blouses are already making a
show, and a new silk called pcau de suede
is what they are built of. A peau de suede
surface, tinted in a pale tan, displays
graduated sizes, technically termed the
mushroom pattern, and to find blouse
Of more interesting and modish goods
than this a woman will be obliged to
search far and wide.
1t seems almost essential to mention
here in connection with blouses that any
maid or matron who is obliged to conduct
at once with skill and economy the desti-
MES of her wardrobe for the approaching
fall will do herself good turn by invest
ing in a white satin skirt. It is to be
the basis, in fact, it has been the basis all
summer of every variety of blouse. No
woman who knows the laws of clothes
land mounts her blouses, be they grave
or gay of aspect, on black satin skirt.
She buys instead the richest ivory white
satin she can find, gives it to a good
dressmaker who will cut it on handsome
lines, but decorate it with nothing more
than a narrow thick fold of satin at the
foot or with three inch-wide tucks. 1t is
amazing what rough steady usage such a
skirt can endure, and how, with a few
blouses, it will answer as the very back
bone and cornerstone of theater toilets
dinner dresses, home costumes, and, at
a pinch, for ball gown. Now, important
as it is to dwell on the merits of the white
satin skirt, just so important is it to eau
ton every woman against its old black
satin fellow. That garment is an old SOL
der on unlimited furlOugh, some day, I'M
doubtedly, to be recalled to active duty.

Although there are plenty of people
about the lake, and the trains are well
filled during the day, both going and
coming, yet one might suppose that the
place was deserted as far as social hap
penings are concerned. Each family seems
to be living its own quiet contented life,
and even sailing parties on the lake are
few and far between.
The two principal events of Importance
during the week would seem to be the
delightful rains, which have put an end
to the drought, and have saved the gar

the prospects for a fair potato crop; and
the fact that on Thursday the thermom-

This has been a record breaking sum-

Enlarging the Business.

W. 0. Phillips has made up his mind
that 1899 is to be a banner year in john
son City's history and he is arranging
to meet the demand in his line. Last
Friday he closed a trade by which he
became sole owner Of the Hugh
O'Boyle bar, building, fixtures and
stock. We were not given the figures
but it was a cash transaction and Sat
urday morning the familiar face of Dan
Walters was seen behind the counter.
MI. Phillips will continue the two bars
under Walters management for the
present. It is rumored that he will
shortly tear away the frame buildings
between the O'Boyle saloon and Hotel
Piedmont and build a four story brick
hotel on the entire block. adding two
stories to the O'Boyle building, This
would make a valuable piece of prop
erty and give to johnson City people
something it badly needs. Mr.. Phillips
is we'll able to build a handsome struc-
ture here, and having accumulated his
wealth in johnson City has great faith
in its future.
Mr.. Phillips lives at present at Fish
Springs, Tenn, where he has a large
and modern distillery, but it is tenn.
porarily out Of blast. He owns the
only store in the neighborhood and
does a large business. Everybody
knows "Bill" Phillips and his friends
are limited to his acquaintances. Ii

The Furnace and the Corporation.

There was an interesting meeting of
the board Monday night. Several
months ago the board agreed with the
Carnegie Furnace Go. that if they
would leave the furnace in johnson
City and put it in operation at once,
that the beard would memorabilia the
legislature to so change the corporate
limits so as to cut the furnace property
out Of the corporation. At last weeks
meeting q committee was appointed to
visit the furnace and ascertain if it was
in operation, etc. The committee made
its report Monday night that the Car
negie Furnace Go. had complied with
their agreement and a resolution was
offered pledging the board to petition
the legislature to change the corporate
limits rs above indicated. This brought
on more talk. The proposition was
discussed at length, mostly by the OPP
position, a few visiting citizens. All
the opposition asks is that the company
assume its proportion Of johnson City's
bonded debt, but the company is IN
willing to do this. Seven members of
the board were present and when a
| vote was taken five were for and two
| against the resolution. The action of
the board resulted in the call of amass-
meeting for this friday evening at
the Opera House to further consider
the proposition.
