EMIL BAUER'S OPENING OF PATTERN BONNETS.

AN IMMENSE SUCCESS/

On Thursday afternoon, at three o'clock, occurred the grand opening of fine Pattern Bonnets and Hats for Spring wear, at Emil Bauer's millinery establishment. Taking into consideration the unfavorable weather we have had so fax for our millinery houses, the bright aunshine this afternoon was very inviting and brought the ladies out in great force to see something new in millinery at this, the leading opening of the season. The storeroom has lately Men repapered, carpeted and painted and is pronounced by millinery men the prettiest and best arranged exclusive millinery house in the State. The Flowers, Ribbons, Silks, Flumes, and other pretty things wese artistically displayed and made the store look like a boquet.

There were about sixty-five pattern bonnets. Among them were some French imported bonnets from Marion Moulron Bauval, Mme. Raymbnd successor, M'lle A. Magnier, Adele Monnie Xeche

We shall not attempt the difficult task iy of these gems of beauty. bonnets," but instead

of describing an these "loves will jot down a few notes of Information about bonnets given us bV Mr. Bauer.

The shapes of the 'Bonnets this season will be large, but are so modified by face trimmings as to be more becoming to the majority of faces than they were on their first appearance, when the wide brims were unrelieved by any garniture except a stiff shirring of silk. Flowers are used in profusion. Ostrich tips and plumes area portion of the trimming of some, but flowers of the.moat beautiful colors and forms are chiefly used. The Evening Bonnets are composed entirely of flowers, for the string as well as the Bonnet Itself.

Most of the flowers are in wreaths, with a drooping bunch for the side, and are in three ^shades that are only separated from ming three separate and distinct colors by the artistic skill used in their arrangement. Red, orange and lemon maroon, cardinal,scarlet claret, cherry, pink, purple, mauve, lavender, are some of the combinations. Shaded ribbons, six to eight inches wide, and shaded surah silks to mstch, are seen in the above combinations. Steel lace, beads and ornaments, in new designs, are used more than the.gilt*

it, as rs A Co. were wishin etermined out at a~bare fraction above cost

He was astonished at the way in

price. which people bought a good article in tbe boot and shoe line if they could get it at a reasonable price. He began investigating, and found that by buying largely and being content with a small profit, he could sell any amount of boots and shoes in this market, and make money by dividing the profit of the business with his customers. He has concluded to try it. He has made special arrangements with a number of boot and shoe factories, and will inaugurate a manufacturers' sale, by which means, doing away with one middle man, he will be able to sell boots and shoes at from 15 to 25 per cent, lower than they are now being sold be other dealers. He has also bought the stock of H. Helmcamp, sold at assignee's sale. He bought them at a very low figure, and proposes to sell them at once by offering tiiem at prices below what other dealers can purchase similar leydeal.

Just in the Nick of Time.

Our Mr. Havens is in the New York market just in the nick of time to pick np unprecedented bargains in fancy Dress Goods, Trimmings, Notions and Domestics, and the purchases he has already made and sent to us shows that he is making good use of the opportunities offered.

Tbe long continued cold weather has caused a heavy decline in the values of a great many lines of the choicest Spring goods, and manufacturers agents and importers are now selling goods at a fearful sacrifice in order to dose out goods that will be unsalable when hot weather comes. Remember that we buy exclusively from manufacturers and importers in large qualities, with jobbers discounts, thereby enabling us to sell to our customers all goods at one profit lees than is usually charged for them at retail. WE RETAIL Aff STRICTLY WHOLESALE PRICES.

We have just received a complete assortment of fine SUksand-Satfn De Lions, Fringes, Passementries, Ornaments, Loops, Silk Cords, Tassels, Girdles and fineFearl Buttons.

We continue to lead tbe Corset trade with a full line Of over 50 different styles, from 23 cents np to the finest and best qualities. If you would be convinced look at our stock, for prices, styles qualities and quantity will bring con viction and plenty of customers. 1,500 dozen Ladies', Gents', Misses and Children's Hose received this week making the largest and most complete stock Hosiery to be found in the city, at prices that make them, in connection with our superior stock of Hamburgh Embroideries, the great attraction of the Notion department. To see is to be convinced.

For not making up any garment to order, unless we furnish the "material, may be used against us by our competitors, as an evidence of selfishness, and some of our patrons seem astonished, and sometimes appear slighted, by our refusal of "Job work" in the Dress and Cloak making department. Our reasons, however, are (at least we believe so) substantial enough to convince everybody at once that it is NOT SELFISHNESS by which we are guided.

Take a look at the latest issue of the City Directory, and you will find the names of 26 Dress and Cloak makers in this city, mostly women who have lived here for years, the majority of them depending upon their own exertions for their support, and all of them capable of turning out good, reliable work, at reasonable prices.

Wie would consider it a bold robbery by even attempting to take one cent's worth of revenue from any of this hard-toiling olaaa of ladies, particularly as we are, thanks to the kindness and good will of this community, enjoying a splendid trade in our establishment, and have all we can do when our neighbors are dull.

The reason wo commenced our manufacturing department was, not to run opposition with home industry, but in order to compete with Eastern manufacture, and be making up at home the thousands of ready-made'gar* ments which we sell during the year, and which we would otherwise be compelled to buy in the Eastern market. Wo are promoting home labor, keep the money at home, ^and furnish our patrons with better and more reliable goods for less money. We leavo the people to be the judge. Respectfully,
