The Cathedral Fair.

The weather was mild last evening, and
the crowd at Market hall Was several hundred
larger than on any previous evening Of the
week. The voting, too. was more spirited
than previously, and the managers were
bubbling over with good humor. The center
Of attraction was the contest for the Webster's
dictionary between the girls and boys Of the
Cathedral parish school. The struggle was
deeply interesting, and for time hung in
the balance, but the young ladies made a
better fight than their brothers at the finish
and took the Unabridged by vote Of $40 to
$40. Miss Annie Eagan won the elegant
sleigh, the highest throw with the dice max
ing As. For the doll at table l for the most
popular young man the vote stood: Chas-
Spiel 20, NJ. j. O'Brien SIS, NJ. J. Donnelly
40, H. Kittson 35, Ed Borsht 30. For the
toilet shaving setat table for the most pop
ular barber the vote was: Lyles 100, Smith
so, Bruce rs, Kennedy IS. For the foot rest for
the most popular candidate for mayor o. Brien
received 21O, Smith 175, j. W. Willis 90.
For the doll for the most popular little girl the
vote resulted: Nellie ReardoD as, Nellie
