THE BAZAAR,

2 at Brueggerhoff building was gran
? success. The musical programme III
: der the direction of Mrs. l.. NJ. Crook
er was carried out, with the exception
, OF the song by Miss Matte Walton
, who did not appear owing to tn,
burial of her cousin, Miss Lille Jones
The remainder of the programme wal
finely rendered and the attention paiC
gave evidence of the appreciation.
. The six electric lights were in full
blaze last night. after two days alb
sence, owing to an accident to the
machinery on Tuesday. The Ice
landish booth was brought out in all
its frigid beauty by their soft, mellow
light, and the sixteen young ladies OF
that department were the cynosure of
all eyes, in their snoW-white costumes
With covering of snow and beads of
Ice.
The quaint little Spanish booth is
most charming, and Miss Wooten and
her visiting cousin, and Miss Madse
Stacy are most faithful to their posts.
Five young ladies with their hair
frosted, attracted no little attention
last evening, and added much to t h
evenings entertainment.
The Elizabethian and Martha Wash
ington tea party of little folks was re-
peated, and was again most charm
| ing success.
The Kate Greenaways are expected
out in full force tonight.

| SumPtuouS, aad was most literally
patroniZed. The ladies are very rigid
in the matter Of giving proper change,
and no extortion in any department is

the presence of the Tyroleans, but

Interest in the great Bazaar of ma
tions, at the Brueggerhoff building, is
on the increase, and strong influences
are being brought to bear upon the la
dies in charge to induce them to con-
tinue the entertainment during por-
ton of next week, but nothing def
mite has yet been decided upon. The
musical programme of last night was
fine. The chorus, "OI Be JOYFUL"
was exceedingly well rendered.
Miss Matte Walton'S rendition of
that beautiful Scotch song, "Within a
mile of Edinboro town" was superb.
Mr.. W. A. Bowen returned
from Burnett in time to de-
liver a humorous recitation. The Sc
lection was good one. The Austin
QuarteJte was present, and added no
little to the evenings enjoyment.
The Kate Greenaways were out,
and presented quite grotesque ap.
pearance.
There will be concert tonight, as
usual. Mrs. Lane will have charge of
this department again tonight.

hundred plates of ice cream, at the

Miss Leila Bracken, who is a second
cousin of the great Confederate chief

prettiest young ladies at the Bazaar

much to the attractiveness of the Ice
landish booth.

very attractive in her Turkish cos
