The ladies Fair for the benefit Of the
Catholic Church opened at the Eureka
Opera House last Thursday evening and
was attended by a large number Of ladies
and gentlemen. The stands were beauti.
fully fitted up and the magnificent array Of
the Ipresents that were displayed we're the
most tempting that have been seen In Eu.
rska for many years. The ladies In charge,
eminently charming in themselves, were
too seductive to permit the gentlemen pre-
sent to pass through the hall without In.
vesting in tickets for the various articles
exhibited. The young misses, floating
around the hall lib so many nymphs, re-
minded one of the Fairy Land, and they, TO.
gether with the ladsipresent, industriously
called the attention OF all who were willing
TO aid in the success Of the fair. The as.
semblage had been called in attendance by
q succession Of musical airs by the Eureka
Star Band. Frank Riegelhuth on the
violin, and VIM. Sampson at the piano,
furnished music for o large number OF
dancers, who were soon engaged merrily
whirling through the hall in e~cstatic de-
light. Meanwhile our reporter noted the
