SHEPARD COMPANY'S
GRAND OPENING.
Enlarged and Remodeled Stores In
speCted by Leading CitiZenS--rlag-
nificent View of VastEmpOrium.

There are number of business firms
in Providence that manifest a great
deal of enterprise and I'm consequence
receive large amount OF patronage,
but il is doubtful If any firm is as
much in line with up-to-date methods
as that OF the Shepard Company. and
this was very clearly demonstrated last
evening when a large number OF tina
friends Of Mr.. Shepard. including state
and city officials. We're invited TO a pri-
yate opening OF the enlarged and re.
modelled stores OF this leading Proyi-
dence business house.
The AFFAIR, although admittance to
the stores was exclusively by card, wac
thoroughly informal Mr.. Shepards
guests being allowed TO roam at viii
over the elegantly appointed emporium,
everything being wide open from base
ment to the top story. All the beluI-
ful goods and fabrics being temptingly
displayed in a most artistic manner.
ana There seemed 10 be no evidence
Whatever OF Stiffness in the arrange
ment OF the thousands OF articles and
stuns on the counters and in the show
cases. A large staff OF very courteous
attendants was on hand tao offer any
explanations that might be desired.
Mr.. Shepard was present and almost
all OF his guests were greeted by him
personally and made to feel quite ar
home, and among the distinguished
gentlemen present were Mayor Baker
Hon. Charles Dean Kimball. members
or the city council and state legisll-
ture. present and past city and state
otficiaS and prominent members or
professional and commercial life. many
rof whom We're ACCOMPANIED by ladies.
and these found i'm every department
much that caused them to give vent
TO expressions Of undlsguised admra-
ton. and this sentiment was particu-
larry manifested i'm the dressmakinG
and millinery departments.
ATTRACTIVE STORES.
The enlarged stores are indeed most
attractive i'm every detail. More than
1000 square feet Of space have been add
ed 10 the large area formerly occupied.
and today there are in reality 45 stores
under one roof. and every one Of them
forms an elaborate exhibit in itself,
and the concensus Of opniOn last even
ing was that the Shepard stores wer'
about as handsome and as well equip
ped as an establishment OF the kind
could possibly be. and TO many the dis

stores for with the exception OF fresh

an abundance that one wonders Whsre
they All come from and where they ere

very clearly shown when his large mum,
