OPENING THE JAHRMARKT.



A scene from the fathcrland trans
fcrred TO this city was the picture that
met the delighted gaze of the large num-
Der Of people who were attracted by the
unique entertainment given at the Wash
ington Light Infantry Auuory under the
name of Jahrmarkt. 1t was a gay crowd,
and they were thoroughly delighted with
the fair and its attractions. Pretty girls
and gallant young men there were in
abundance, and graceful fingers dealt out
the numberless small and large articles
that were placed on sale.
Donch's orchestra played Il catching air
just after 5 o'clock, while the executive
committee walked into the stand at the
north end of the hall. Mr.. Anton Eb-
crly spoke few fcicitous words and then
introduced the Rev. Ernest Drcwitz, pas
tor of Concordia Church, who spoke in
German.
Commissioner Ross made All excellent
speech. He spoke of the ConCurdia
Church and the beautiful cdiiicc that was
contemplated, and the services that the
church had done during the great disaS-
tcrs of the nation. After waiting until
the, applause, which, followed his, speech
had subsidized he said: 81 have the honOrof
declaring the Jahrmarkt duly opened"
An interesting feature was the voting
contest, in which the first vote for the
Presidential candidate was awarded to
James G.. Blaine. Ex-prcsidcnt Cleveland
and Senator Stanford received one vote
each.
Tonight there will be a drill by large
number of ladies handsomely costumod,
under the direction of Mr.. Dunkhorst.
The Jahrmarkt will be open every even
ing from to ~ p. m. until February II.
