THE HEBREW FAIR
Scene of Brilliant and Dazzling
Splendor.
FAIR And WlNSOME PROMOPRESSES
Great Interest Taken and Large
Results Expected.
THE OPENING CEREMONIES

To any one entering the hall of the
Washington Light Infantry Armory last
evening from the cold and windy streets
outside the scene within was one OF gor-
geous beauty. 1t was the opening Of the
great bazaar for the benefit of the building
fund of the Washington Hebrew Congrega-
ton, and if the first night of such an affair
be any criterion, the fair will be a ire
mendous success.
Around the walls Of the hall were pref
tily draped booths presided over by matrons
and fair young women, an orchestra of fif-
teen pieces rendered appropriate music,
and until well toward midnight the hall
was scene of gayety ana unalloyed enjoy
ment. In the center Of the hall are five
booths separate from each other SO that
the crowd had free access in all directions.
And there was a great crowd. From the
time the doors opened there was a steady
stream of people entering the hall, and
few left until all was over or until their
money was all gone. 1t was a generous
crowd too, and the appeal of countless
pretty girls to take chances or votes rarely
went unanswered.
The fair was formally opened a few min
utes after 8 o'clock by Vice President Ste
venson, who was escorted TO the hall by
Mr.. James l.. Norris. He was introduced
to the assemblage by Mr.. Simon Wolf, and
made a brief but happy address, which was
responded to even more briefly by Mr.. H
King, jr., the president of the Washington
Hebrew Congregation. Mr.. I. L. Blout, the
chairman of the committee in charge OF
the bazaar, seemed to be omnipresent, with
a royal welcome for everybody and an eye
always to the best interests of the bazaar
Variety of Diversions.
Hundreds and hundreds of electric lights
made the scene one Of bewildering bril-

the extreme. The booths are all draped ir

combined, and giving a bright and CHEEKY

BURSTING OF A MAIN.

Many Narrow Escapes From Death
Near Cleveland.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, February 11-At an
early hour this morning an immense water
main burst with terrific force on Franklin
avenue hill, just west of the Cuyahoya
river. With the great volume of water that
poured out several hundred feet of the
hill on which was located many small
houses, was washed into the river.
A small one-story frame house. occupied
by Mrs. Mary Ravey, sixty years old, No.
Franklin hill, was inundated, and with
its contents was hurled into the river. Mrs.
Ravey was drowned Her body was re-
covered an hour later
A New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio
freight train was passing at the foot of the
hill at the time, and the force Of the water
carried several cars into the river. On the
cars were three Of the train crew and the
men were carried down with the cars. Two
of the men jumped before the river was
reached, and escaped, but the third was
dumped into the river. and but for the as
sistance of the tenders of the Columbus
Street bridge would have been drowned.
The man was badly injured.
Houses were washed along or dropped in
to a great pit scooped out by the raging
| water and much damage done
Many narrow escapes from death are re-
ported.
John McDermott who lived in the rear
| of his saloon, corner Franklin avenue and
Columbus street, narrowly escaped drown
| ing with his whole family. His wife and
| two children. one four-months-old babe,
| slept in a back room and the husband in
| the room adjoining. About 3 am. q watch
man from the Columbus street bridge
aroused McDermott by breaking his win
| dow. The water was then knee deep. Or
entering his wifes room, McDermott found
| her sleeping with a child on either side
and the waters whirling almost on a leve
| with their heads. McDermott carried them
| all to the street in their night clothes.
