press Of Austria. The occasion of the
gathering was the annual charity ba-

raise money for the poor. Imagine. says
a correspondent, the Charity Ball. the

and they are considerable. The profits
have reached 100000.
This year they would have been nil,

nounces that an anonymous donor has
sent the munifcent sum of 937 500 to
the bazaar, to make up for it's loss. This
amount, with the proceeds of the first
days sale. FL 800, equals the full receipts
of the bazaar of 1896, and the committee
is thus enabled to make distributions as
before.
