Another Road.

There is no longer doubt about the
Tennessee & North Carolina railway
being extended several miles. The road
has issued and sold $3.50, 600 worth Of
construction bonds. The purpose in
issuing these bonds is stated in the re-
cords at Newport, TO make eastern con-
nections. This plan was mentioned 0
few weeks ago in the Sentinel as the
probable one of the Seaboard Air Line.
Now it is quite certain. The Seaboard
Air Line having given up its intention
to reach the Virginia coal fields, has
now turned attention to the Tennessee
coal fields, and this is one Of the roads
to be used in reaching the desired goal
Last year the Tennessee Il North Car
olina railway built four miles of roat
from Naillon to Waterville. The amour
to be expended in the extension thi
year will carry it at least thirty five o
forty miles further. 1t is expected tina
the road will make connection with tn
Rutherfordton, Hickory Nut Gap an
Asheville road, which is being survey
ed by the Seaboard Air Line in tha
direction. Knoxville Sentinel.

Proposed Tennessee Stste Flag.

Mr.. Leroy Reeves of johnson City,
originator and designer of the state
flag, for the adoption of which Repre-
sentative Miller has introduced bill
in the house, writes letter to the Ban
ner in favor of his flag, as follows:
81 have for long time been i'm
pressed with the fact that Tennessee
stands in need of an appropriate state
flag. After giving the matter some
thought and experiment, / arrived at
the design, a rough drawing of which l
enclose, though the poor quality of the
red coloring matter used In the draw
ing prevents it from showing the flag
to the best advantage. l sent bill
covering the above to s. L. Miller, our
representative in the legislature, and
he has kindly introduced same.
"a joint resolution was passed in
1897 providing for flag, but for many
reasons it needs improvement. II pre-
vides for flag of red, blue and white
three sections, so shaped by dag
onal lines as to represent the geological
lines of the state, with the words and
figures 'The Volunteer State '16. The
design has never been a success and
has never received the approval Of pub
lie use and adoption. 1t is heavy,
without symmetry or grace, and has
other objections. The lettering can
not be read at a distance nor while the
flag is waving, and unless it is floating
freely the first color is hidden.
"The ideal flag should be (1) as sim
pie and easilp made as comports with q
suggestive design (2) SO designed that
its details are discernible at consid.
cradle distance; (8 symbol, and moi
a description by words; (4) and espec,
tally should it be suggestive symbol,
appealing to ones imagination, the po
etry aud sentiment of his nature, ant
not to everyday prosy, facts and in
terests. You will note the insuficiency
of the former flag. (See acts of 1897
page 769.)
"The intended meaning of the pres
ent design is: The three stars of pure
white, representing the three grant
divisions of the state, bound together
by the blue, three making one-an in
dissoluble unit; the red, a suggestion
of the common protection; the white
edgings bring the colors into stronger
contrast; the final bar relieves the
sameness of the large field and keeps
the flag from showing all crimson
when hanging limp.
"It is unnecessary to mention ouI
need of an appropriate banner for stat,
buildings and exhibits at the various
expositIons, for use at interstate gath
erings In general, for the use of tn,
Tennessee militia at such gatherings
and, with the simple addition of th,
regiment, for use as regimental AaI
for Tennessee troops when in the gen
eral service.
| 81 do not wish you to criticise tn
former flag, nor do mean to do so un
necsarily. Its originator deserves com
mendation for its purpose. However
the design is unsatisfactory, and if 20
would lend the last measure the SUP
port Of short commentary editorial
urging its adoption, on the above Q
other grounds, would thank you. y

Trimmings seem to be still in their
infancy, although it is certain that
braids of all kinds, grelots, passemen-
terie and tassels will be evident
throughout the entire season. Mohair
and fancy braids are much employed,
also the cord brandenburgs. Cord tied
in loops and fastened with cord but
ton in double-breasted style on jackets
is much favored, line of cord defining
the shoulder seam and falling, epaulette

to some extent, especially in the form
of cut-out cloth bands applied to reVers

practically repealed the Jarvis law.
