Newberry MilEners Have Their Usu-
al Spring Openings-Vie With
Each Other in Pretty Styles.

It seems like the Storm king wish
ed to help out the merchants Of this
! city, and prepare an unusually love-y
Sunshine for the opening day, because
the night before being so terrlfica;iy
stormy the merchants must have
\thoueht the crowds would be slim. but
GLORIOUS sunshine bright as the flow
ers on favorite Easter bonnet came
with the advancing day, and flooded
the millinery rooms, and fell across
the mirrors and made everything.
both the hats and the ladies look
their best.
Winter openings are interesting
and generally beautiful but they arc
only an imitation Of the spring lowell
ness and of the summer beauties.
The poet says ''In the spring a
young mans fancy lightly turns to
thoughts of love-" and low could
THAT fail to be the case when the fair
faces Of beautiful women are enhanc-
ed by the lovely creations in spring
millinery that the tasty and charm

Caldwell & Haltiwanger.
/ Messrs. Caldwell and Haltivarger
have moved their stock Of goods from
their old stand to the large and COM
|modious store recently occupied by
the Bee Hive and next door to EWart-
Perry Co. This store presented a
strikingly good appearance on Wed
nesday morning when everything had
been arranged for the opening. There.
are the prettiest silks in all the lead
ing shades, the loveliest laces for
waists, the daintiest lawns, and the
most exquisite trimmings to match
the particular shades Of goods. Ev-
-erything was in its proper place, and
; it is really like an apartment store.
Upstairs Miss Riser and her able
assistants we're most gracious in
showing the hats to the many Gus
toners who came in.
There was one big black hat here
with the crown pipped with aigrettes
and the new style of braid around the
crown; and another black and white
mushroom shape with beautiful black
grapes as ornaments. Both Of these
hats were very much admired.
The "queen" of the hats here Was
a purple chip straw trimmed with
white and purple lilacs, and the dain-
ties Of foliage, and other trimming of
the most delicate tissue. It is a beau
:. ty, and is one Of the latest.
) Another that attracted much at
tention is a black and blue hat with
blue grass, poke shape and handsome
!. let ornaments: also a black panama
with the most tempting plumgranites
running around the top, with beau
tiful black bow in the back.
i There is another lovely hat which
Z is trimmed with purple and yellow
wistaria and yellow roses. Then a
dainty little green hat with purple
violets, purple bow in back, and a
, touch Of pink roses to give a lovely
shade to the other colors. Then there
, is a London Smoke hat made of fluf-
fly braid, Alice blue quills, and black
aigrettes. The black hats are mostly
the rage, and nothing could be pref
tier than a handsome black jet hat
with a most beautiful black plume.
The jet trimmings are very good this
season also, and here is a small jet
turban of exquisite design. The
streamers. which we're so in vogue
some years age, are back in style
again, and Miss Riser was showing
one lovely small green chip straw hat
with wistaria wings, fastened with
buckle, with green and violet trim
ming around crown, and streamers.
there is also a large gren poppy tur-
an trimmed with aigrettes that IS
much admired.
