Many other beautiful prizes were
| disposed of from this table at rattle,
among which were dolls, boquets, toy
stoves, etc.
Next in order came the fruit stand,
from which delicious fruit was sold at
reasonable prices by those attentive
ladies Mrs. B. Lemann and Mrs. Gus.
Miller.
Adjoining was the post office, and
here sat Misses Leila Duffel, Alice
Gondran and H. Levy receiving and
dispatching delicate missives contain
ing anonymous communications which
excited much curiosity and amuse-
ment among recipients. The post
Office booth was tastefully decorated,
and the attractive personal appear
ance OF the postmistresses contributed
to make it a pleasant place of resort.
The punch and lemonade table ad-
joined the post-office, and those who
loved the beverages received them
from the fair hands of Mrs. L. Levy,
Mrs. Chris. Kline and Mrs. Frieden-
thai.
Ice cream and cake stands came
next, the frozen delicacy being dished
up in pretty style by Mrs. NJ. Tobias,
Mrs. Chas. Ilsley, Mrs. ID. Leblanc
and Mrs. H. kaufman, while the deli
cious cake was served by Mrs. Jos.
Levy, Mrs. L. Loeb and Mrs. Jos. Leu
mas.
Passing these tables, we next came
to some fifteen or twenty others,
spread in restaurant style, and most
of them continually occupied by par
ties of hungry visitors discussing such
nice things as roast turkey, chicken,
duck, and other dainty and substan-
tial eatables, washing them down with
sparkling claret or champagne. Fit
ting around among these tables and
serving up the eatables with their
pretty hands, while their animated
voices and ripping laughter filed the
surrounding air with pleasant music,

In the basement of the silver cor
net bands building, and OH the oppo-
site side of the grounds from the avn
ings, was the bar, which of course at
tracted considerable number of the
