IN ELEGhYrIrYE or GOODS

shown At Even Mcintyre a. Co.'S opening
The Fine New Store Sh rvs to Great AL
vantage - Beautiful Window Decora-
tions-Great Crowds Attending the Open
ing-IO Last Three Days More-french
Millinery.
Yesterday was the first of the open
ing days at Even Mcintyre & Co s
splendid new store on Chapel street in
the Hubinger building. Although the
company has been located in this place
of business for some time, the store has
never heretofore appeared to such ad-
vantage as it did yesterday. The Win
dows are dressed in a splendid fashion
and are truly triumphs of the art.
Large crowds admired them all during
the day, and the store was continually
filled with a stream of people, attracted
by the line of goods shown, which IS
unsurpassed by any store in the city,
Along the counters We're displayed all
the fine goods of the season, and a COM
plete and adequate force of clerks and
attendants was on hand to show the
goods to their full advantage to the
vast numbers of ladies who called dur
ing the day and evening.
In the millinery department the dis
play of new styles and new goods was
particularly fine, and the fine line OF
spring millinery made in the latest
French styles called forth expressions
of admiration from the pleased ladies
who continually filled that department.
The display is undoubtedly one of the
10 RI n
New Haven, the exhibition including
over six hundred hats, all after the
most recent approved modes and all
differently trimmed.
In the line of silks, dress goods of all
kinds, laces, parasols, capes, jackets,
silk waists, suits, skirts, ribbons, gloves
and everything of that sort the assort-
ment from which to make a choice is
the finest possible to get together, and
the quality is the same. Probably no
metropolitan dry goods stores can show
a finer exhibition of goods in that line
than this enterprising and well known
firm has arranged for their multitudes
| of patrons, and not only this, but there
is the doubly attractive fact that all
these elegant goods can be purchased
at prices which are astonishingly rea-
sonable.
Special attention is drawn by the
parasol opening, for which superb as
sortment of the very latest designs in
those articles is In stock, Their style
and quality are such that all contem-
plating purchasing anything of that
sort should in justice to themselves look
over this splendid assortment of which
! the price and fashion cannot help but
suggest more than a look.
| The Easter opening will continue to
! day. tomorrow and Thursday The
store will be open on those days until
o'clock in the evening from o'clock in
| the morning.
| Special bargains will be given during
| the opening from z to 8 p. M, and op
| portunities will be offered at those
| times of buying cheaply which few can
| afford to miss.

EAST HAVEN.
At the Old stone Church

The Rev. A. p. Miller, formerly
pastor Of the Dixwell avenue Con-
gregational church of this city, and
now acting as field secretary of the
American Missionary association, pre-
scented the needs of that society at the
Congregational church in East Haven
last evening in a very entertaining and
convincing manner.
Having been a beneficiary of said
society in former years, he was pre-
pared to emphasize the Importance OF
the work done along its various lines.
Mr.. Miller was accompanied by Pro-
fessor Godet and his quartet of jubilee
singers, whose excellent rendering OF
the melodies of their race added much
to the interest of the meeting.
We would recommend Mr.. Miller to
the churches.

Again Obliged to Wade Through Ponds of
Water
To the Editor of tbs JOURNAL AND COURIER:
There We're more shocking evidences
of town government neglect seen at the
Four Corners again Sunday, March 20,
at noon, when the people were going
home from church and women and chill
dren were wading in water over their
shoe tops. This is the seventh time
the Four Corners have been flooded
within a month, and the selectmen
have been notified several times of the
situation, but so far they have done
nothing to relieve the overflow of wa
ter. Perhaps had the members of the
selectmen (who constitute the road and
bridge cOmmittee) witnessed the event
they would consider it their duty to
make temporary repairs at once The
writer OF this article is in hopes that
he won't be called upon to sign his
name to a petition for a call for a town
meeting in order to get the relief asked
for by the people in that portion Of the
town, as the temporary repairs should
not cost to exceed SIS.

THE HAIR CROP.
A Rare Shade of Light Hair Sells
for One Dollar an Ounce.

Though women do not at present uphoister
their heads with locks that obviously grew
somewhere else, hair, is still an importan mt
feature OF commerce. In fact, one of the
great New York importers says that the
trade is as large now as it ever was.
II suppose It's due To the growth of the
country" said he, land the extension OF
fashionable Iuxuries into the byways and
hedges, but on the whole our business is as
valuahlenowasit it was whentbe women wore
chignons. The theatrical world is bigger
than it used to he. and after all they are the
great hair-buyers.
New York imports four or five tons OF
hair annually, and London twice that
amount. English women have never de-
pended upon their own hair for adornment.
as Americans do. They have finer suits
generally, but like to see the head over
loaded with puffs, braids, buns. etc.
"The big hair crop comes from Germany
and France. 1t is handled by the agents of
a Dutch company, who visit America an
nualy for orders.
Black hair is fashiona BILE Just now but
there are certain golden tints that always
bring the highest price; for example, Ger
tain shades or light hair that fetch as much
as dollar an ounce. The peasant women
OF Brittany and Southern France supply
most of the dark hair, in the market, and
from one to five francs is paid per head.
The average weight of a single growth
is nne pound. and agents refuse as rule
Ia handle less than that amount unless the
hair Is naturally curly or Of a rare color.
The peasants are obliged 10 wash it before
the sale, and, indeed. as hair-growing is a
business with them, they learn that it pays

Pen Points.

The following suggestions regarding cor
respondence are given by the Philadelphia
Bulletin:
Fold your paper so that when the envel-
ope be opened the former will be right side
up.
Never open and read letter in the pres
ence of Others without first asking permis-
sion.
Never sign a communication written in
the third person. This rule sounds some
what absurd but the number of supposedly
intelligent women who violate 1t Is even
more absurd. At other times always sign
the full name. even when writing to an inti-
mate friend. Initial letters do not serve
the purpose. Nicknames and pet names
should be reserved for kinsmen. Married
women should never prefix their names by
