A Delightful Entertainment at Turn
verein Hall.
The annual bazar of the ladies OF St.
Paul's guild was opened in Turnverein
hall last evening under encouraging
auspices. The object is to endow free
bed in st. Paul's hospital, and intended
to be non-sectarian.
| hese ladies at other affairs OF the
kind have instituted something new
| and pleasing, and in the present bazar
they have exceeded all of their previous
efforts and have presented the prettiest
and most artistic affair of the kind that
has been held in the city for long
time.
The old style of displaying the articles
for sale in booths has been departed
from; they are instead placed on small
tables on both sides OF the hall. forming
two perfect drawing rooms. About the
tables are placed numerous chairs and
divans, while the floor is covered with
rugs, the whole having much the ap-
pearance of boudor. Most excellent
taste and artistic touch are visible eyery-
where.
The articles displayed are dainty, but
the prettiest and most attractive feature
of the whole event are the ladies. In
every booth they are present and seldom
if ever before ha such a strikingly
handsome set of young women assisted
at like event.
On the entrance side of the room are
the fish pond bag and candy booths.
The fish peJd is partially hidden by
several sc1ehs, behind which are the
fishes waiting to be caught by the silver
hook. Ivy is arranged about these
screens and the dark green leaves are
pleasingly displayed against the light
colored elk background. Clusters of
palm leaves hide the walls and flowers
are in profusion. The booth is in charge
of Mrs. W. S. Moore, assisted by Miss
Hincb, Miss Clemons, Miss Howell,
Miss Maxwell, Miss White, Mics Strohm.
