Splendid Style.
ATTENDANCE WAS LARGE.
Names Of Some ofth Lucky Patrons
of the Brilliant Affair.

The Hermosura which opened in st.
Mary's school hall one week ago Monday
came to close last evening when the
articles. that were canvassed for during
the ten evenings were drawn and after IL
was all over many were heard to say they
never had any luck. But this was always
said good .naturedly and the next moment
the speaker would be eongrat ulsting
some one that had held the lucky num-
ber on some article. Whether the prize
was costly or not the person that received
II was just as much pleased.
The weather last night was very unin-
viting and had every appearance OF con.
tin uing so, but that did not deter one OF
the largest crowds OF the week to visit
the hall.
However dark and dreary II was out
side IL was all light and loveliness within
the portals OF st. Mary's hall Sweet music
lured the passer-by To stop and listen and
II he listened he was lost, for II was i'm
possible not to climb the stairs, and once
inside when the fair canvassers took
charge of the weary wanderer all hope
fed. OF course II was pleasant, but there
was marked deficiency In ones treasury
when the tour OF the booths was con.
cluded.
Everyone was busy last evening try
ing to do all the work possible in
the few hours remaining. The confec-
tionery booth, Saratoga Springs, Kate
Carney's Cottage and Hotel de Parts we're
largely patronized while IL seemed that
the beauty otthe Spanish, Roman and
American booths was never more
resplendent.

last night as on the other evenings OF the
highest order.
