Wednesday night was a financial and
social success, fully 200 OF the best peo-
pie in Yakima patronizing the industri-
GUS younger and older ladies OF the Guild
of st. Michsel's, and assisting others to
saugment the sum in the church treasury.

there were no booths. In their stead two
long tables were filled to overlooking with
fancy needlework Of beautiful design,
lamp shades Of unique pattern and row

when dancing began-a dance supper
being served at ii for the merry partici-
pants. During the evening vocal solos
were rendered by Mrs. II. w. Brooke, of
Seattle, Mrs A. II. Mcguire aud Rev. A.
| ii. Brown. They were enthusiastically
received. The contest over the prizes
awarded was spirited, vet every body was
satisfied with the awards. Mrs. A. b.

chased. The first sale, year ago, was
grand success; but the fair last night
was greater one.
