Partisan and
American
Millinery.

The assortment of stylish model hats we are
now showing comprehends every. accepted
style, and in general exceeds any display we
have ever made.
The keynote of style in Women's Hats this
season is prettiness. All that has appeared
in the past to make millinery beauty seems to
have been summoned for this one great season,
when style, to be in the mode, means chiefly
to be beautiful.
The varied beauty of the Paris models
proves this; and it is most amply illustrated
BY the superb collection Of our own millinery;
The display in our salon is very broad and
is composed of Paris models, adaptations, rep
licas, and originals created by our own expert
milliners. Richest and choicest materials
have been used throughout. -.
A most satisfying array Of Millinery for
girls and children as well.
There is also an abundance Of newest MIL
lnery Trimmings, Flowers, Ostrich Plumes,
Rich IAces and Superb Ornaments.
We ara also showing in connection with
millinery the latest novelties in Partisan and
American Neckwear.

Yesterday.

The weather yesterday was fair and cool
and in marked contrast to that which
had prevailed on several preceding sun
days. Many people were consequently
upon the streets and numbers from
Washington visited the city. The day
was quiet throughout. The churches
had large congregations. The services
were conducted according TO the an
nouncement in Saturdays Gazette, ex'
cept those in Trinity NJ. E. Church,
where Bishop Foss was to have preached
in the morning. The bishop was indis-
posed and the discourse was delivered by
Rev. DR.. Taylor. A large congregation
was present in the Second Presbyterian
Church in the afternoon when the men
meeting was held.

Preparing for the Improvement

DIR. ID. n. Rust, chairman OF the
Board of County Supervisors, and Su-
peryisors w. w. Douglass and W. M.
Feebrv; G. E. Garrett, County Surveyor;
l.. ii. tucker, clerk of the County
Court; E. G. Dunn, City Engineer /;
Major Z. T. D. Myers, President of the
Washington-Southern Railway; Chief
Engineer Haines, of the Washington
Southern Railway and II. w. Stamper,
assistant Chief Engineer, together with
surveyors, this morning went over the
ground soon to be occupied by the
Washington-Southern road lying between
St. Asaph Junction and the upper end
of King street. The officials Of the
company explained in detail to the rep
resentatives of this city and county the
work purposed to be done, and in nearly
all cases where changes were suggested
they were adopted. The Board of Su-
peryisors of the county seemed perfectly
satisfied with the plans of the railway
officials, and as soon as certain matters
in connection with the requirement OF
land have been adjusted work on the
purposed improvements will be conf
menced. President Myers assured the
city and county officials that his company
was anxious to begin operations as
soon as possible, As has heretofore
been stated, the road will cross
King street extended on an iron
trestle under which electric trains will
pass. The carriageway will be from
40 to 80 feet wide with sidewalks.
At the suggestion of City Engineer
Dunn the railway officials will provide
for keeping open Cameron street ex-
tended. 1t was also provided by them
that an iron bridge of dimensions suf-
ficient for the construction of a carriage
way and sidewalks should be built over
Braddock road. The Board of Super
visors were assured that bridges of equal
dimensions ana as stable as any in the
county would be erected over roads In
that vicinity. The company had sug-
gested certain changes in their plans tor
the improvements at the upper end OF
King street. They endeavOred to show
the city and county officials that with
the notifications they proposed it would
be possible to erect a more elaborate
and imposing union depot. All pre-
sent seemed disposed to accept the pro-
posals of the railway officials, while the
latter readily adopted most of the propo-
sitions made by the city and county Of
fcers in anticipation of the growth OF
the city and the improvements in the
