New MEMPHIS THEATEK-Mr. Mayo
closed his second week last evening, a.
T" Joe Morgann in the drama Of Ten
Nights in a Bar Ro0m. Such portrait
urss may be deemed moral In showing
the desperate consequences entailed by
yielding to " the invisible spirit Of wina,n
bat they are far from pleasing to re-
fined audience. Tomorrow evening Mr..
Mayo will commence bis third week la
the drama OF The Streets ~ Nssg York,
In which he represents Badger" In
portrayihg such eharaoters be shows his
versatility, but they are really below the
standard which he should endesvor to
maintain. We wish him a successful
week, as his artistic merits and efforts to
please deserve success.
THE HEBREw RAIR-The ball OF the
Greenlaw Club room, in which Is being
held the ladies fair for the benefit of the
Congregation Children Of Israel, was
filed last night by enc of the most bril-
liant sssemblaRes We have seen gathered
within four walls for some time past.
The ladies snd gentlemen In charge Of
the various departments continue to
prosecute their charitable work most
faithfully. The voting for the various
prizes was most spirited, and much in
tEI tEA WIS LlAullCaAEA UI lA6 lEAEllus OF
the various contestants. As Il happened
to be Saturday night, the dancing was
much enjoyed, although not kept up
until a u1e hour. In addition to The va
rious articles voted and to DO voted and
ratified, a large number Of ornaments.
toys aud fancy goods are bought and sold.
One feature Of.this interesting occasion
was the crying Of votes by the popular
coal merchant, Capt. Geo. Mellersh.
This is not the first time that his manly
voice has been heard aiding In 3 good
cause. The postoffice in charge Of Miss
Hannah Leubrie continues to excite
much interest. The tabls No. 1, over
which Mrs. NJ. Kraus presides, Is we'll
northumberland so it should be. The
lady in charge lie most interchangeable in
performing the work given her to do.
The same, with equal truth, may be said of
the other ladies having the management
Of the Fair. The refreshment table
where the edibles are furnished in excel
lent style by Mrs. Sam Sehloss and her
assistants Is well and d~eservedly
p~atroniZed. The votes on the various
articles disposed Of stood as follows:

The voting Tor the clock, valued at $500,
for the most popular freight agent was
postponed till Monday night, when it
will close at ten o'clock; Capt. J. A.
Levy, J.. J. Lawton, Capt. Ed. Hart and
Capt. luther are the contestants. We
may here state that the silver ladle and
spoons for the most popular lady, as we'll
as the minister's cabinet and editors
chair will be clOsedou Cd Monday night.
The fair viii be open on Monday night
and close on Tuesday night with a hop,
which will doubtless be the greatest at
traction of the season. The fair, so far,
has been s magnificent success, and, I'M
der the present management, must so
continue. An evening cannot be more
pleasantly or probably spent than at
tending the GreenlGw Monday and Tues
day nights.
