only very useful article, but an ornament.
Many other articles will at once attract at
tsntion from even a casual observer. The
Misses Egan and Miss Emma Minchin are
valuable assistants at this table.
Mrs. Flanagan and Madame CostO's ia
BILE is well stOck-indeed, it is groaning
under the weight Of the good things thereon
displayed. The chief attraction on this
table is picture Of the CruciiXion, which
is indeed a splendid work of art. These
ladies' are brave workers in the cause of
charity, and they always receive their re-
ward.
The Give and Take Table seems to have
become fixed institution. The ladies are
kept busy from the opening to the close,
and patrons seem to be well pleased.
Several valuable articles were drawn, and
very few left the table without their moneys
worth.
The West Nashville Table is as attractive
as ever, notwithstanding the large number
of articles disposed of. The ladies acknow-
ledge the receipt of a lace shawl from Mr..
Mclaughlin, silver pitcher from Mrs.
Barney Hines, a doll from Mrs. DR.. Eve,
barrel of -four from Mrs. Slime, a very
pretty and valuable greenback from Mr..
Sam Murphy, and donations from Messrs.
Neylan and Fulcher.
"The Polls" where Mrs. Barry advocates
female suffrage, wOman's rights and re-
union were largely attended and the cleo
pioneering is becoming enthusiastic. Sew
eral societies have voted for the banner, and
the Cadets of Temperance are in the lead
and will carry of the prize unless others
east more votes. A few of the Red Men
made their appearance last night and put in
votes for the banner. The excitement as to
who will be the winning party will doubt
less be great tonight and the voting large.
The Give and Take Table was
badly punished by Mr.. Gilgan, who
secured magnificent oil chrome and sun
dry articles of less value-vaSes, embrOide-
~ and gilt trimmings tumbled down
from the shelves as if touched by magi-
clans wand. Mrs. Sam A. Medary and her
winning assistants were kept busy for sew
eral hours "taking and giving"
The Soda Water stand, under charge of
Mr.. Maachy Mccormack, is doing good
business. Mack knows how to make a
fellow smile pleasantly as a May morn or a
new moon.
Since the notice of the refreshment ia
bles in the UNION AND AMERICAN yester-
day morning, the visitors to the Fair have
discovered that little refreshment for the
inner man improves them nightly. The
finest of good things can be had cheap for
cash. Gen. Battle sent a splendid cOntri-
button TO this table yesterdays magnifi.
cent pyramid cake. Mrs. James w. Nc
Laughlin and Mrs. Sloan sent in liberal do
nations.
Rebecca was kept busy at the well, and
right gracefully did she wait upon her NIL
merOus patrons.

his glory last night, delivering letters to the
happy visitors. All who know Jerry ad- |
mire the grace with which he performs his |
luty, but when surrounded by lovely /
women, heavens choicest gift to man, his |
shines out to perfection.
