PARIS HATS DELIGHT SHOPPERS
BrAndeis' Exhibit of French Millinery
Wins Admiration of Omahn's
style DeyOteea

The opening display of French pattern
millinery which has been conducted for
the last three days at Brandeis' drew the
largest throng of the week on Saturday.
The artful designs from Paris were
showered with expressions of delight from
Omaha women, whose interest in foreign
designs in millinery is more than usually
keen.
The efforts which the firm of ]. l.. Bran
deis & Sons put forward to accomplish
this exposition of style entailed vast
amount OF labor. A personal representa-
tive of the Omaha house made a special
trip to Paris to choose the. most charac-
teristic of the fall styles, from the most
authentic sources Hats that embodied
every phase of French style were dis
played. The great millinery section was
decorated with ropes and garlands Of oak
leaves, banks of palms and ferns The
illumination scheme was thoroughly ar
tistic. The proprietors of the store de-
clare there was never such a complete
variety of individual styles imported from
Paris by western house.

worst DimcuIty Removed.

The greatest dif1culty which confronted
the directors has been removed. That was
the limited time for the construction of
the arena. According to the schedule there
was to he a band concert at the Auditorium
just four days before the opening day Of
the horse show. This made the time very
limited for hauling in 800 loads of dirt be-
sides all of the other work which must
necessarily be done. Owing to the kindness
Of the directors of the Auditorium, how
ever, this difficulty in construction has
been removed and the horse show ring
and track will be built at once to permit
the practice by local owners.
When the concerts are given a white
duck canvas will be placed over the clay
and chairs put on the canvas. This will
be satisfactory TO the Auditorium manage
ment and will make no chance of delay
with, the construction of the arena With
but one entrance there was danger OF an
accident and delay.
Stalls will be constructed this week for
the foreign entries and a large number
of additional lights installed. The direc-
tors are delighted with the merchants who
are already decorating with the horse show
colors, as It shows kindly feeling in the
show to decorate so far in advance. No
prettier oolors could be used for the
Ak-Sar-Ben decorations than the California
red and. the Arctic white.
Citizens of Omaha may not realize the
fact but last years horse show set a pace
for the rest Of the country which is hard
TO follow outside of Madison Square. In
fact, the Omaha horse show set a pace
which is hard for itself to follow, but
from all indications the show this year
will be an improvement over that OF last
fall. There will be more entries from
abroad and more local entries. New classes
have been added which will give an in
creased interest and everything points TO a
successful show.
St. Joseph seems to be coming up in
body and the Commercial club Of that
city is interesting itself in the matter Of
securing rates for st. Joseph night at the
horse show.

The BurVvood Draperies.

The carpets and draperies for the Bur

Stewart & Beaten. Ability and excellent
taste has been shown by them in the selec-
ton Of the plain red wilton, something
never before seen in an Omaha theater.
The plain red harmonizes splendidly with
the interior decorations. The box draperies
show TO a beautiful advantage with the
surroundings, giving an air of elegance.

More Real Interest.

More real interest in the horse show Is
being displayed this fall. and this may be
accounted for from the fact that last fall
was largely an experiment and the people
of Omaha and Council Bluffs had to be ed
ucated. Council Bluffs is horse show mad
and the dressmakers and milliners of the
Iowa city are busy. The headquarters Of
the Omaha show are constantly being be-
sieged for ideas and data for this years
show whereas there were no inquiries at
all for the show last fall. Lincoln and
Fremont are wheeling into line and far
away Denver Will be on hand with entries
and visitors. Entries already are coming
in from neighborng towns, showing the
intense interest of this whole section of the
country.

An Omaha girl while returning from an
outing in the Colorado mountains recently
met with a ludicrous accident that was
serious as we'll. She sat close to the
window of the Pullman watching the noun
talns fade in the distance and oblivious to
her surroundings Meanwhile the porter
in his round of lighting the car had climbed
TO inspect the globe above and stood
Colossus-like across the aisle supported by
the ends of the seat. A sudden lurch Of
the car sent him headlong from his position
aloft and, pitching forward and sideways
his head strnck the Omaha girl just be-
tween the shoulders. The shock was so
great that II rendered the young woman
unconscious for a few minutes, during
which her fellow passengers had a lively
time producing and applying restoratives.
At last they had their effect and as she
revived and learned what had happened
she said weakly TO the woman who bent
over her "A few days ago l narrowly
escaped death from flying boulder in the
bottomless pit. There would have been
something heroic in such death but, oh.
the ignomny of being killed in a Pullman
car by flying porter"
