prising persons vino have tickets for
this or chances for that to dispose of.
When such fair is over those who have
been compelled to visit it more than
once generally feel thankful. The Ba.
zaar of All Nations is fair also, but it
ia not one of the kind just mentioned.
The managers have striven to make it
agreeable and interesting in all its fea'
lures, and they have been eminently
successful. The Bazaar of All Nations
has been increasing in popularity from
day to day, and last night Motifs Hall
was, to say the least, overcrowded. The
galleries were tiled to their utmost ca
pacity. and the auditorium large one
--contained so many people that it left
but little room for the grand
march. The booths were respleudent
with gaily costumed ladies. and pretty
feminine faces were abundant. The
draperies of the booths, also, had been
looked after by artistic eyes, and there
were none of those incongruities appar-
ent which shock esthetical people so
often at average fairs. At s o'clock
when the music struck up for the grand
march the scene was brilliant and gay
one, not often witnessed in this city
The march was opened by beautiful
little girl dressed as page, carrying
banner, and was followed by several
ladies and gentlemen dressed in the
Continental costume of the end of the
last century, illustrated in the war of
independence. There were also noble
men and their gentle ladies. queens,
Scetchmen and their lasses in kills, Ma
homedans and their harens bevies of
white e-robed Iceland maidens, Japanese
ladies, Spanish ladies in black lace man
tillas, Mexican ladies and gentlemen in
national costume, a hospital nurse of the
red cross of Geneva, Indians, etc. The
procession was greatly admired and de.
servedly SO. After the grand march the
concert of the Spanish American
booth took place-a rare treat to
many of those present, strangers from
the East, to whom such spectacle was
q delightful novelty. The incontestable
merit of the performance, however,
made it acceptable to old residents as
much as to visitors. Following was the
programme:

esting event of the evening, receiving
long and continued applause. Don An.

the admiration of all present.
