Those who came after : o'clock for

ladies' aid and missionary societies OF
the Second Presbyterian church, At
Arion hall last evening. found the tn
bles rot only occupied, hut many wait.

The disciples OF Eplcurus could have
found no objection to the menu that
was offered TO the palate. In fact the
supper was s. palntahle that many OF
the diners fingered longer thnn-wcll

Mrs. Albert Fortney and her good
cooking assistants may pride them
selves on making n success Of the
most substantial feature OF the bazaar,
Tho people who were there? They
came from all points OF tho compass
within the limits of Wheeling, and the
ladies OF the Second church have great
reason to feel proud OF the undanuml-
national patronage they attracted. The
scenes In the bazaar were enough to
make a bachelor turn TO thoughts OF
matrimOny. The various booths were
presided over by the most attractive
ladies. and their assistants were OF the
most bcautcous type. In fact, the LEM
onade well was so hrlnkcd with beauty
chat the bashtul reporter shrank from

green was envlcd. Miss Agnes Wilson
had charge Of this department.
The domestic booth. presided y by
Mrs. Henry o. OFT, was Garn!tured In
red. and was one OF the most Rttrac-

Of Mrs. W. II. Fee. And there was the
