Me-Gke portraits OF Bishops England, hey
nolds and Lynch, painted by Mr.. Wightman, Of
this city, have been placed in ornamental gilt
frames. and are now on exhibition al the book
store Of Mr.. John NJ. Greer, corner of King
and Beaufain streets. It is proposed to rattle
these portraits at the low price Of one dollar
per chance-the winner to have the three pic
lures. A List has been opened at Mr.. Greer's,
which is already numerously signed, and all
Catholics who desire to win good representa-
tions Of these distinguished prelates should at
once add their names to the list. The pictures
are valued at $50, and as soon as that amount
is subscribed the rattle will take place.
TEE CATHOLIC FAIR.-Age does not wither
or custom stale the infinite variety Of the Cath
Ole Fair, and the hall last night was as bril-
liant in appearance as on the opening day.
The tables are still overfowing with richness,
and GEL Dorado, or No. l, ia place where the
less you put down the more you take up. With
some of our folks the "Grab Game" is favor
ite, and the Grab Bag at No. 2 was well looked
after. At No. theiPope is still smiling at the
Partisan doll and mammoth cake, and wishing
he we're rid of the tsmporalities. Bishop
Lynch is beaming over No. 4, which his pres
ence makes No. 1, and at Unstable is another
gift enterprise where fifty cents will entitle the
payer to prize, from matchbox to donkey.
At No. 5 there is the painted lady, from whose
arms the dove has not flown away, perhaps
restrained by the massive Bible and the cool
look Of the toilet set. Sweet st. Genevieve
reigns atNo. 6, which table received yesterday
the exquisite glass paintings sent by the nuns
at Columbia. The paintings will be raf1ed.
At Nos. Z and there is still rush
of the hungry and thirsty, land young
lady yesterday said to her swain, in
giving him rendezvous, "R you do not
see me in the body Of the hall, you will be
sure to find me at the refreshment table,"
S..ch is life. No. 9 Is still ornamented by the
fine portraits already noticed, and covered
with q profusion Of fancy work, music and
miscellaneous articles. At No. 10 there is now
an exquisite stole embroidered by the Sisters
of Mercy. 1t is Of satin worked in gold and
green, and is gem OF its beautiful kind.
There is also benediotion set, consisting OF
alb, surplice, stole, veil and cope, which is to
be ballotted for, and presented to one Of the
resident pastors. The silver wares, vases,
pipe, and other articles on this table are very
rich, and deserve q close inspection. No. II is
still gorgeous, and has added to it's attractions
a turn table, which is an ingenious way of Civ
ing big something for next to nothing. Here
Is the Jacobs Well, Of which the tasteful ver-
dure is e frame to as sweet q divinity as gas
lights ever winked at. Beauty and claret
punch at twenty live cents glass, are irresisti-
ble-long may they wave. At No. II the
silver chimes like sun, and doll and carriage
are to be rafaed at ten cents chance. There
are some wonderful shirts, and prayer book
that would make reporter pious. At Is the
"Grand Turk" is ss magnificent as ever, and
cakes, slippers and toilet ornaments make up
o pleasing whole. The fremen have No. IA,
and the interest in the ballot for the famed
trumpet and freman's suit is steadily increas-
ing. In the middle of the hall stand too little
orphans, who appeal to the kindhearted for a
small contribution. Their bare feet press the
cold marble of the soda stand, and they tell q
tale which every generous person will at once
understand. Do not leave the Fair without
paying your respects to the quiet little or
phans. On the stage is a new set of scroll
work encircling the Irish harp, the work OF
the ingenious Mr.. Werner. Ths telegraph line
Ia in full operation, and is the cause Of much
amusement.
