to the Orange Tree.
What was probably the last general
meeting OF the committees having in
charge the ST. Joseph's Infrmary Bazaar
was held yesterday afternoon at the in
Urinary. Practically all of the plans were
discussed and definitely settled. and all
that now remains before the opening Of
the bazaar tomorrow night. is the deco
ration of the booths, and the arranging
of the articles. This will be done to-day
and tomorrow morning.
While a great many of the donations
have already been received there is still
a number that have not yet been deliv-
cred by the donors, and these the ladies
are very anxious to have delivered to-
day at the Masonic Hall. where the ba-
zaar will be held. In fact, it is absolute
ly necessary that they be received to-day,
so that they may be tabulated and placed
on the booths.
The plan of the bazaar, as II is now ar
ranged, is to have two tables for fancy
ware, one to be in charge of Mrs. j. j.
Powers and Mrs II. T. Wilson; the other
in charge of Mrs. J. ]. Carolan and Mrs.
F. S. Jette; one country store. under the
care of Mrs. ]. S. Howkns and Mrs. Jo-
seph Gorham; supper table in charge of
Mrs. A McArthor. assisted by Mrs. W. c.
Chaplin, Mrs. Max Wolff and Mrs. George
| II. Van Horne; an orange tree and cigar
| stand, in charge of Mrs. c. S. Richmond,
Mrs A. +. Silva and Mrs. Pease;
candy booth. in care of Mrs.
T. J. Fitzgerald and Mrs. w. w.
Mssterson; a soda water fountain, and a
shooting gallery, in charge of Mr. Mencke.
In addition TO those directly in charge,
| at each booth and table there will be a
corps of young lady assistants who as
| well as the directresses, will wear the
Red Cross Society costume, white shirt
waist. white duck Skin, cap. and the in
sigma of the organization. The caps and
! the crosses will be furnished these as
sistants by the ladies in charge of the
tables.
While il has been definitely decided that
there will be no dancing, nevertheless
there will be an orchestra in attendance
each night, Wiegand's having been en-
gagged.
The outlook for the prosperity of the
bazaar is very good indeed. Not only
have the gifts already received been
many and valuable, but others continue
to be given. Again a number of organ
| iZations have already notified the supper
| Committee of their intention of attend
ing the bazaar in a body and taking sup
per at the supper booth. Among these
are the Catholic Library Association, the
| Elks and Company of the Guards. The
Irish Jasper Greens, while they have
not yet determined to take supper at the
bazaar, have decided to give the COM
| mittee a liberal cash donation.
The bazaar also will be the recipient of
a part of the door receipts of the pro-
posed production at the Savannah The
alter of 'Richelieu." The bazaar man
agement wishes it understood. however.
that the bazaar will not get the total re-
ceipts, but only 10 per cent. of the gross.
Among the recent contributions that the
bazaar wishes to acknowledge is a lot of
poultry from the Armour Packing Com
pauy. a supply of pickles and sauces from
the Heinz Pickle Company, a set of har-
ness from Mr.. p. Barrett, SIS from the
Ca tholic knights of America and SIS from
Ancient Order of Hibernians. No. l. Also
the offer of Mr.. c. H. p. Murphy to paint
free of charge all the signs needed, in
the bazaar.
