firing zeal on the part of Rev. j. Il.
Whelan and his parishioners, the fair
and festival at st. Patrick's church
was opened last evening with an at
tendance that bespeaks for the under
taking the unlimited success 1t de-
serves. The congregation turned out
en- masse and entered into the spirit
of the occasion with much pleasure
and enjoyment. The patrons were
surprised at the transformation made
in the Sunday school room and the ar
rangement of the booths and tables is
such that incites favorable comment.
In the center of the large room the
tables are grouped together and pret-
tily decorated and on either side large
roomy booths have been erected by
the Globe Warehouse, Clarke Brothers
and +. j. Mccain for the exhibition
of merchandise. At the extreme end
of the hall a large stage has been
placed for the entertainments each
evening. The opening feature was the
musical programme given by the paro-
Chial school orchestra, which was
thoroughly enjoyed. During the even
ing a choice number of selections were
given by the musicians.
The principal things that attract the
visitors are the piano, stove and side
board, which will be chanced off dur
ing the fair. The various societies will
contest for a safe. and Father Whelan's
horse will he disposed of by chance.
