THE ELKS' BAZAAR.

Artistic Affair Opened at Music Hall Saturday Night. The Elks' bazaar, which is to con- tinue for nine nights, closing Monday
 next, was formally opened on satur-
 day night in the presence of nearly two thousand people, who thronged Music hall. Mayor Studley pressed the cleo trio button, which caused blaze of
 dazzling lights from hundreds of incan-
 descent bulbs. His honor made a few appropriate remarks. saying, in part:
 Your organization is one of a number, of benefit to your country and to hu- manity, and is based on humanitarian principles, your organization is one of charity. l thank you for the invitation to open your fair, it is one of the greatest honors that has been bestowed upon me since I was elected to the of fee of mayor. I am glad to come here and bespeak to you the patronage of our city. You have done lots of good and now you are trying to do more good. But you must have money and the people ought to turn out and sup port such a grand fair.
 And now as I was requested not to delay the festivities, I will say, On with the dance, let joy be unconfned."
 It must be said that Music hall was never more elaborately or splendidly decorated than it is now and none can afford to miss the beauty and splen- dor.
 The prevailing color is pink and large broad strips of bunting of this color are stretched over all the balcony railinge and festooned in striking manner. The recent electric illumina tions on the Green furnished those in charge of these decorations and they have artistically suspended from many points in the hall about 800 electric bulbs encased in Japanese lanterns to the central chandelier.
 Another striking feature of the deco rations is the ten-ponted star, in the center of which is an Elks' head, all lighted by electricity and placed against two immense American flags draped on the stage in the front part of the hall. The orchestra is stationed in front of this and partially hidden by a bank of palms and other potted plants.
 Around the sides of the hall are ar- ranged many booths where articles of value are being sold by the ladies at ten cents chance.
 This affair, which is being given in place of the annual minstrel show, is the first of the kind attempted by the and will from prospects be an unqualified success.
 Much of the praise Is due to the la dies who have been untiring in their ef- forts
