Thursday.
NAMES PLACED ON THE HONOR ROLL

The bazaar for the benefit of the Sisters
of the Good Shepherd, now in progress
at Music Hall. has been well patronized
during the past week, and the indications
ell seem that the results will prove most
gratifying. Each evening the hall has
been thronged with the charitably dis
posed, the largest crowds being present
Thursday and Friday evenings, when
members Of the Ancient Order of Hiber-
mans and the Irish-American Society
turned out in force to aid in the noble
work for which the fair has been held.
The ladies and gentlemea in charge have
labored zealously since the opening night,
with the result that no one can be found
who is not loud in praise of the treat
ment which they received.
The bazar was visited Wednesday even
ing by Rev. Fathers Lynch, Walsh, Rock
and other clergymen. Besides these
there were present Col. John Whallen
and wife, Col. James Whallen and wife,
Col Lum Simons and many city officials
and other prominent citizens. They were
always the center of throng Of interest
ing maids and matrons, who unanimously
voted them the most liberal patrons OF
the entire week. What Col. Simons
could not win he bought, and Col. John
Whallen and his brother Jim were most
munifcient in their patronage, donating
to the Sisters many of their prizes.
AS the bazaar is drawing to close. the
Kentucky Irish-American feels called
upon to mention at random some OF the
many ladies and gentlemen who are de-
serving Of the greatest praise for their
zeal and untiring labors in behalf of one
1.-THE grandest charitable institutions in the
State Of Kentucky.
The President, Edward ]. OBrien, is
possessed of the faculty of being here,
there and everywhere at one time. No
gathering at any of the booths, on the
stage or at the door is complete unless he
is in the midst. With the great weight
of the enterprise on his shoulders he
moves through the crowd without stoop,
apparently unconcerned. 1t is a care he
carried willingly, and with his splendid
management and the valuable assistance
of John Crotty and Mike Duffy the fair
could not fail to be grand success.
The Press and Printing Committee,
Messrs. AL Smith, R. ]. Whelan, Tom
keenan,, c. A. Curtin and f. j. Tierney,
have secured the bazaar the widest adver
tisement possible. The matter furnished
the press by Chairman AL Smith stamp:
