Mention.
The third week of the Masonic Bazaar and
Fair at Exhibition Hall was entered upon
last evening under favorable auspices. The
commodious hall was thronged from an
early hour of the evening until midnight,
and the liveliest excitement prevailed
throughout. Many of the tables now begin
to show the inroads made upon their sup
plies by liberal patrons, but there is
yet large number of articles to be dis
posed of. Railing was active, and num-
Der Of valuable articles were won, and the
lists on others are rapidly filling up. The
centre of the hall near the door was
adorned with the elegant large doll house,
