New styles In Bonneus and Hats.


There are SO many and various styles O
ladies head-gear this spring that the sub
Ject seems really inexhaustible.
Perhaps every one does not know how
the Rabagas originated-the real, the frs
Rabagas- IL appears that Cora Pearl, on,
evening" AZ the tune when Sardou's play
was running, declared that she would
create hat that would next day but one
appear mt every fashionable modiste's I'M
Paris" Upon this she laid heavy bet. and
springing from her chair, trod upon the
| crown OF a gentleman's hat that Law unon
the floor. Picking IL up in its crushed state
| she pinned rose upon one edge, which she
! turned up. twisted a neck-tie about il, and
| behold the Rabagas This she wore next
day upon the Boulevard. Next day but
one. in every fashionable millineT's store in
! Paris there appeared a hat crushed IN, with
! turned brim and single rose. The bet was
won.
| There has appeared here this spring, be-
sides the numerous shapes, more or less like
| the "Rabagas" origin, a singular, vet be-
coming felt hat, whlch-the crown having
folds in It like a crushed high-crowned
gentleman's chapeau-is turned up at the
side and adorned by a single rose. This is
the nearest of all that has appeared To the
first Rabagas.
An other very original style is the new bril-
gand, or Tyrolese shape. This is unlike the
hats that have heretofore appeared bearing
that name. The crown diminishes to a
point, Is five inches high, and has a brim
three inches wide. that is turned up alb
ruptly. and laid close to the LEFT side of the
crown. and there is placed a birds wing

naming portion of the trimming. These
hats nave appeared both in felt and va
rious straws-
In felt the brigand affects various
HudhceS. In teas there are brigand felts
both light and dark, and these are trimmed
with ribbon and birds wings of the same
hue. 1t is said that these will be much
worn.
a novel and beautiful hat has wild rose
of great naturalness imbedded amsng deli
icate white flowers of airy texture. This
hat is black chip, with a simple trimming
of black ribbon. It's beauty Is in the ex
quisite delicacy of the flowers, the prettiness
of its form, and the stylishness of its |
ensemble.
Another very novel and extremely stylish \
hat has broad band of dark blue velvetas "A i

the lining, which is exposed 10y the laying /
back of the edge, lies rose attaching a |
shaded blue plume, which appearing but |
little at the side of the brim along which
it IS laid, decOrates the side and back, but
not the front, where the becomingnsss of
the broad blue lining suits it to a blonde
