It la becoming to almost any port of face , and will not Interfere with anyone nt the thoatcrs. Ona great advantage it has Is that It can not bo cheapened. The best trade , " you know wonts something that no OHO else 1ms. To popularize a style Is to kill It. It Is Impossible ! to popularize n twenty- five-dollar hat , mid the best trade may rest secure in its monopoly. Flowers arc used on everything. Hero nro sumo bon nets , you HOC , which nro llttla moro than masses of forget-me-nots nnd daisies. "Tho toguo Is still a popular shape , nnd bonnets arc , as you sue , mere nothing In everything except the price.

One beautiful creation with u beautiful price attached was a largo whlto leghorn Gains- bore with a face trimming of llowers nnd a crown of feathers and ribbons.

This is the correct thing the Mary Anderson circular It Is of black lace , and is one of the most beautiful and graceful wraps over worn. The other spring wraps , which you have , of course , noticed , mostly of black material and shirred nt the shoulders and In the back , nrc an adaptation of the English university gown. " The Mary Anderson circular is a Spanish looklngaffair , and a dream of stately beauty , but it crashes into the pocket book with a (00 thud , and It Is safe to predict , will bo worn almost exclusively by the "best trade. " The new things In shoes nro of ooze calf nnd undressed kid In a variety of colors. No change is noted in jewelry , the many fan tastic designs inoxydizcd silver holding their own. Probably the most sink Ing novelty , ns well as the most senseless , Is the parasols. They need no description , nnd nra sufllcicntly con- spIcuQus to uUr.uct attention. In gentlemen's furnishings one striking feature dwarfs all the rest neglige shirts. They nro of all conceivable descriptions , flannel and silk , and of all degrees of clabo- ratcncs's In ornamentation. The tailors' plates show styles that are , if possible , a degree moro hideous than ever before. Wide pants , cocuy derby hats , loud checks and stripes , are the notable Veaturcs.

The Elks' forthcoming benolit promises tote to be a grand success , both artistically and financially. The boys uro rehearsing tholr business every night , and it is safe to pro- diet that they will give un extraordinarily fine entertainment. Messrs Gooclull nnd Lou Beard , the extreme end men , ore preparing - paring themselves to do some excellent worn , and the sontrs for the llrst part will equal anything of the kind ever heard ou a local stage. Colonel Frank Moores , Judge Shields , Nut Brighaui nnd other vocal celebrities of the city , are down for solos , which , with the nccompan.ing chorus of lifty or moro strong voices , nro calculated to make Bo.vd's opera house ring with music. Among the specialty attractions will bo song and dance turn , "Down Where the Daisies Grow. " by James O. Crawford , city editor of the Herald. Mr. Crawford is u minstrel star of the old Birch and Backus school , and therefore may bo expected to give the uudicnco a tusto of burnt cork art that m these days of spectacular galore is virtually lost. Messrs. Douglas , D.ina , Tlrrell and Goodall are also booked to display tholr talents In tha line of break-down performers. In ' the after piece , "Mr. Sampson , of South Omaha , " they will hold the stage fo fifteen minutes and do some clever acting. Over 500 tickets hnvo already been sold , and the demand for thorn has only Just commenced. "Tho Twelve Temptations" was originally founded upon a Norso'fairy tnlo. The revision - vision , which forms the text as It will bo presented at Boyd's opern house , beginning Thursday evening next , was prepared with u view chlully to lilting the piece for a 'gor geous spectacular setting , and It Is In thlu direction that the greatest expenditure of money and other thlnes requisite for a suc cessful stage production huvo boon ex pended , There are mechanical con trivances of all Inmginublo sorts , dragons , snakeslying / saurlanu and other horrid creatures. From these misshapen things there are representations of every stage of evolution un to men and fairies. These creatures disport themselves about a stage that is decorated with spark ling fountains , gardens of ferns und palmi through ono scene after another , till the bower of the -'Queen Sun" is disclosed which is the climax of the whole spectacle. The ballets are danced by three premieres and twenty coryphees , whoso costumes arc in keeping with thu stage scenery in rcupcot to richness and color , if not quantity , Thera are three ballots , "Tho Policeman and tha Flirts , " in which there nro four ponderous onicers , mado. up to represent the four presi dential und vico-prcsUiuutlal candidates. In the ballot of the cockatoos , twunty fairies appear , each with n live cockatoo which she holds on u gilt perch during the danco. In the ballet of the nations , ono wears red , white and black ; another green ; another red , whlto and blue , etc. Charles H. Yale is the author of the revision und directs the performance , _ _ _ _ _ The management of the Eden Museo has prepared u moat interesting programme for the coming week. Splendid attractions will appear in ull parts of the house , but ono of the moat interesting will bo "Mazlo , the Princess. " u lady balling from IJlndooHtan , who reads the future and past of all witU startling correctness. The entertaining Illustrated lectures of Mr. Ragan at Boyd'n on Monday , Tuesday und Wednesday of this week uro well worthy the attention of ull who muy bo looking for BOUIO means of spending u pleasant and so cial evening , A AVorklnj ; .Man.
