YALE BICENTENNIAL BUILDINGS,

Property on Their Sites Being Vacated. The inhabitants of houses on the site of the new Yale bicentennial build ings have begun the removal of their goods from the premises.

 The Ponyamie hat is another very dainty and exquisite turban with a bell shaped crown made of folds of turquoise blue maline with rolling brim of blue Claire-de-Laine,p popular this season The finishing touch is imparted by a large knot of tucked turquoise maline in front with two large Claire-de- Laine tobacco leaves.

THE "BIG STORE" A BOWER OF
 BEAUTY.

Immense Crowds View the Beautiful | Company.
 l All day yesterday and last night the
 big store of the Edward Malley com pany was crowded with people eager to get a glimpse of the large assortment of epring and Easter goods that were shown yesterday for the first time. The occasion was opening day and the crowds outnumbered any that have ever
 attended on such an occasion in the
 Big Store"
 All that the decorator could do with palms and Easter lilies had been done to make the interior of the store sugges- tive of the season. White and lavender bunting was gracefully festooned from pillar to pillar and at each of the bar gain tables boquets of flowers in ap- propriate colors were to be seen. The new millinery and suit department was opened for the first time yesterday. For months this portion of the store has
 been undergoing repairs and with the result that an elegant new fitting room
 with hard wood floors, divans, with supporting pillars of aluminium finish, is now opened to the public.
 The other departments of the big store are all quite as worthy of mem ton, but suffice it to say that the lace department with it's point de gauge, du- chesse, point de alencon, real medica, applique, renaissance, the latest novel;
 ties at the ribbon counter; the differ ent shades of silk skirts; the childrens department, and the muslin underwear, together with the other innumerable departments of modern up-to-date de- partment store, are all here combined in a way and with thoroughness that places the store on an equal footing with the most modern stores through out the country.
 The millinery department was throng- ed all day. In this department some beautiful creations are shown. A Mad anne Ayliome turban after a Spanish turban, made of fine black not inter- spersed with jet and narrow Tuscan braid, covering foundation of gilt tri- cotine with a soft knot of black tucked net caught in front with large black plume falling from the left side toward back, was especially worthy of praise; while nearby was a fresh and summer like picture hat in all-over white lace appliqued with renaissance braid draped to cover entire brim and crown with cluster of pink rose-buds to form a wreath effect on the left side, fastened in back with number of narrow loops of black ribbon velvet This is one of the Camille Rogers models.
 The pastel hat is from Paul Virot and Rerthe This hat will he worn in two
