The closing night Of the Jewish Ladies'
Fair more than fulfilled our prediction
that il would witness the largest attend
ance seen at the Fair since the beginning,
three weeks ago. Masonic Hall was lii
orally thronged from early in the evening
till midnight, and on no evening has there
been more general manifestation Of en-
! Joyment, both on the part of the crowd Of
visitors and the numerous participants in
the Fair.
IL is impossible 10 report this morning
even approximately the amount Melted by
the Fair since the opening, but we may say
the managers are well pleased with the lib
eral patronage that has been bestowed by
the citizens of Nashville, both Jews and
Gentiles, and feel able to congratulate
themselves upon the success achieved.
The 10Th Infantry Band gave the eve
nine's concert, and contributed thereby, Of
course, very much to the delight of the
occasion.
The contests for the fan and cane, put
up for the most popular young lady and
the most popular gentleman, became ex-
citing in the extreme as the time drew near
for the result 10 be announced.
The votes for the fan were sold at %
cents each and brought in the aggregate the
sum Of $3.50 The successful young lady
received ], 525 votes, a majority over the
next highest Of 400. Miss Ida Powers was
the winner.
The fan was beautiful white and neatly
figured, worth about $, and such as would
be purchased for a bride.
While only ons secured the prize, all Of
the young ladies who contested for it re-
ceived a vote which they may well feel
proud OF.
The cane was won by Judge 5. A Du-
ling, who, upon the announcement of the
fact, being present, was called upon for a
speech. He assembled the stage, and grace.
fully paid his acknowledgements for the
compliment.
The ladies in charge of tables / and 2
were presented with an elegant card re-
eeiver, by Duhme & Co, Of Cincinnati, for
which they desire us to express thanks.
The thanks of the ladies in charge of the
Fair are rendered to MeSsrs. j. G. Warner,
j. I. Gibson and J. NJ. RObb, for cash do
nations.
A large quantity of articles remain unsold
and unraffied. These are to be packed up
and held till Christmas when they will be
offered for disposal in some manner.
Miss Emma Feldman was made the re-
cipient last night by a number Of friends of
a present worth so, in the shape of a fine
cage and canary singer. Miss Feldman
has been one Of the most popular and sue
cessful representatives Of the Fair.
