A large number, embracing the
most beautiful and costly articles,
was rsftied off last night, but the
lateness of the hour of receiving the
list of fortunate ticket-holders pre-
cludes the possibility of our publish
ing it. Every department was we'll
patronized and the ladies in charge
of the several tables were kept busy
in answering to the calls of patrons.
The accommodating ana beautiful
little pOstmistress did a "laEd Office p"
business at the delivery window, and
filed many heart with Joy unspeak-
able. Our reporter was the fortunate
recipient of missive full of long
drawn sweetness, which recalled
years gone by when love found vent
in ink and paper. This one is a
treasure. and "Lucretia" may rest
assured we wont "give it away"
Mrs. Tarbet's department was
filled, as usual, with q hungry crowd,
that kept a dozen or more Misses busy
in answering their wants. Mrs.
Tarbet is the right lady in the right
place, and knows chow to keep a
hotel" All the ladies who had
charge OF the several booths and
tables worked industriously and it is
to their united effo1ts that the great
success of the Fair is due. Mrs.
Largey, Mrs. Lynch, Mrs. Driscoll
and Mrs. Madigau were among
the hardest workers. Others whose
names the reporter did not learn
we're also in the front turthering
the interests of the Fair and joining
their efforts in making all feel at
home. The shooting gallery in
charge of Master Tarbet was a source
of much amusement to many as well
as of profit to the enterprise. Take
it all in all the Fair was a most
gratifying success and in it's manage
ment and happy conclusion reflects
great honor upon the ladies Of the
Catholic church of this city.
Tomorrow evening the Fair will
be finally closed with grand ball.
That it will be brilliant social affair
is assured by the fact that it Is gotten
up by the ladies of the church and
will be conducted under their aus
pices. Tickets including refresb-
ments will te sold for the very low
sum of $3.50. Tue best music in the
city will be in attendance.
