PEABODY COLLEGE.

The appropriation of one million
dollars by the trustees of the George
Peabody fund for the Peabody college
AT Nashville has at last been made.
The grant has been expected for some
time. Every obstacle in it's way has
been removed, even to the rushing OF
a bill through the Tennessee legisia-
ture embracing every feature of the
charter desired by the trustees.
Nothing now stands in the way OF
the school entering into the full enjoy
ment Of that prosperity which Is us
due. Nashville, Tennessee, Davidson
county, and private individuals have
already arranged to donate large sums
for it's maintenance. The fuli en-
dowment will eventually reach far into
the millians and II the hopes OF Chan
cellor Porter are realized 1t is proba-
BILE that as much as five million dol
lars will be received in endowments.
This insures not only to TennesSee
but TO the South an institution OF nigh-
er learning for the education OF teach
ers. It's graduates will seek fields oil

At q. CAREERS.

The initial opening of the millinery
department of P. CARRIERS store ON
South Main street, which began today
and will last through tomorrow was
a splendid success. This department
of the store is in the charge OF MISS
Leah CARRIER, and was added TO the
stock by her. and it is due to her I'M
firing efforts that a good substantial
trade has been established. The dec
orations for the occasion were Of flow
ers. laces, ETC., and together with the
beautiful pattern hats presented
beautiful picture. Miss CARRIER Is ably
assisted by Miss Mona Howell, who
has been with the store for several
years.
The hats that caused more admira-
ton than others was a handsome
black, bowl-shaped hat, trimmed with
old rose pom pom and aigrettes, WIN
velvet ribbon and jet cabochons. An
other was a tagal shape champagne
color hat, trimmed with large shaded
roses and grapes with band of yidda
braid, and still another shape that won
hig share of the admiration was the
new sailor shape, trimmed in apple
blossoms and a large tinted rose at
the side. Turbans of Louis XIV and
Cossack STYLES developed in taupe or
dull shades of Vita braid and in the
bright color touch in the feather, or
made cabachon are found in the tail
ored hats. Jet bonnets in quaint styles
are also much in evidence. For the
children the leghorn shape with round
crown of flowers or braid, trimmed In
small flowers and ribbon streamers is
the thing.
The following twelve items stand
forth pre-eminently in the new spring
millinery: Quaint bonnet shapes; Jet;
old.fashioned garlands OF tiny hoW-
ers; overwhelming bigness OF crowns
and cabochons; ribbons tied under
the chin; much white and black;
feathers and flowers used together;
handmade straw hats; large flowers
