Several Of our young people went out
to spend the evening. Hickorynuts
were served. games were played and
music was the enjoyment Of the evening.
The wind blew most furiously and the
snowfiskes came whirling through the
air. AS the watchers were needed for the
sick, the youngsters remained antici-
pating hearty breakfast; but nayi they
reached their homes fatigued with their
long nights watch and fearing the angry
passions gathering on their parents faces
as they listened foi the pattering Of the

around the gallery. One was devoted to
the sale of domestic articles, another to dolls
another to candy, one filed with fancy
work; another where ingeniously cut pic
lures were made and sold, and Japanese
booth, presided over by walters in native
costume, were attractive and interesting.
There was q fish pond, flower girls selling
button hole boquets, and check room
where several gentlemen in great travail of
soul endeavored to keep track OF feminine
wraps masculine hats and overcoats, and
umbrellas. 1t would be surprising if
an affair of this magnitude prepared in
a few days could not in some of its details
be improved. Many things, the ladies in
charge could see, when 1t was too late to
remedy the defect, might have been more
convenient and better have met the wants
of the public. There was larger demand
for expensive articles than was anticipated,
and in some lines the supply fell short.
There was however an abundance for the
tables, a delightfully."- social and good
humored crowd, and the hasty description
we are obliged to give conveys little idea
either of the hard work, the cheerful SER
vice, the general fine effect Of the arrange
ments or the generous patronage and the
good time enjoyed.
The proceeds Of the evening amounted
to S16S.
