p~ortant in the social life Of the city vii
open for public patronage. The Catholi

continue every evening during the balanc,
Of the week at Miners Union hall. TIL,
leaders Of society in Butte have unhesitat
ingly devoted their beet Efforts to make Il
the success It deserves to be. The objec,
to which the funds arising from the fair ar.
to be devoted lie one that appeals to the
charitable OF all denominations, namely;
To assist in deiraying the debt on ST.. Pat
risk's parachial school. The building itsei
is an ornament to the city, and the uses to
which it is dedicated, the education OF the
youth OF the parish, appeal toall as worthy
o! iects OF assistance.

opportunities for unexpected firtations
and exchange OF jest and repair. 20, the
music and the pleasurable sensation OF be-
ing 1plucked" in a good cause-all COM
bine to give to fairs a specia! attraction
all their own.
The ladies who have this fair in charge
have worked early and late for weeks past
in their unselfsh and wholly praiseworthy
efforts to make it exceed anything similar
ever before given in Butte. Chief
among them praise must be
given to Mrs. Tom Lavell under
whose sole supervision the great work has
become. it may be said, an accomplished
fact. By her energy and tireless devotion
to the business Of preparation we are able
to say in advance hat the pleasure which
attends those who will go to the fair will
exceed their widest dreams. She has been
ably assisted by other ladies, and the sue
