Friday and Saturday of last week were the days set apart for the millinery open- ings in Brussels and although the weather was mare suggestive of warm wraps than airy millinery there' was a large attend. name of ladies and better than compli• manta and much admired headgear were the many orders left so that both of the displays were accorded a more generous patronage than that received for several years. MRS. BOOMS had everything pertaining to millinery in rich profusion and the artistic interwsav lug of ribbons, chiffon, flowers, plumes, ctto., presented a very pretty Beene of millinery art and device. The celebrated modistes, who direct the assthetios of millinery the world over have decreed this year that hats shall be large, with abundance of flowers. The reporter realized this at a glance, as he entered the show room, and was met by a bewitohing array of headgear that realized to perfec- tion the Parisian ideals. There were so many exquisite oreations that to single out one superior to the others would puzzle an artist -particularly a male 0110. Tho Shepherdess hat, designed by Virot, is a rare conception, and has created a furore among the ladies. It is already a supreme favorite. It was trimmed with ostrioh plumes, Astrachan chiffon, while under the brim were burned orange roses and foliage. Another pretty hat was made up of Klondike yellow, fanoy crown of blank flowers trimmed in with etertions and ostrich tips. Turban shapes with fancy scarfs and heavy fringed ends are very neat, as are the trimmed sailor hate with eoarf drapes. Burned orange, yellow and turquoie blue appear, to be favorite shades and so are green, Roman stripe, small oheoko and plaids in ribbons. We must not forget a fanoy straw hat in blaok, trimmed off face with fnohias and tips, with fanny not ties. Mrs. Rogers has a large and nicely assorted stock of ohildren'e fanoy bonnets, hate and naps, and a Rus range of sailor and walking hats, at moderate prices. A neat display of ladies' tape is 0100 made. Mise Dun. bar, who presides over the millinery de• partmenb, to well deserving of the many tributes offered over her splendid work, and while these are very pleasing a more satisfactory result of the opening is the large number of salmi made which, after all, is the object and aim of inviting the fair sex to the exhibit, Those who have not yet galled should do so and 000 the West and most fashionable millinery and leave their orders. ems 100000012'O display exceeded that of any former year, p 3 e , the milliner showr be' y room being very neat- ly and prettily decorated for th0 00oasion. While the proprietress was busy with customers 1110 reporter was initiated into some of the mysteries of millinery art by Miss Sample to whose ears many pleasur- able comments have 00100 as 1110 molly' visitors have shown their appreciation of her work. In the dioplay was a taking blank p0nalna hat trimmed with soft rolls of pleated chiffon, long black plume drooping over book, duster of feathers at right side, high bow of black silk, steel and rhino stone buckle and yellow rosea underneath. A new shaped short hank Bailor with rolled edge and scarf trim. ming In purple and white plaid and sprays of cactus leaves. There was also Geeneboro' trimmed in blank, with loath. era and a band of purple roses. The Klondike droops to back and front, has plaid ribbon in yellow, blue and white, soft spray, shredded wheat, and mesa and cowslips. Blue in all shades and colors will be lunch used as are other colors. At the table on which mourning goods are displayed there is a large and nicely selected stock. Children's silk hats and bonnets are to be found in large variety. Soft orowne, pleated chiffon and Roman stripe and plaid ribbon with flowers and plumes form a largo part of the trim- mings in use, Trimmed Tam's appear to be popular. A visit of 10 minutes to Mies Roddiok's show room will give the readers a very much better idea of the ex. cellency of the display than it is possible for us to give in this brief notice.
