Fete at Sherman Square Proves to Be
Success.
There were fully 2OOO people at the lawn
fete at Sherman square last evening, where
the United Societies of Patriotic Women
are giving a lawn fete, the proceeds of
which are to swell the relief funds of the
nine organizations taking part.
Down in town the people were sweltering
under the waves of heat that had melted
the asphalt during the day, but on the
side of the Sherman square hill, which
stands high above the heat and dust of the
city. the air was cool and refreshing. The
amusements were more numerous last
evening. and the affair takes on more than
ever the appearance Of a big oriental
bazaar. Nearly every organization has a
bugler. drum corps. fifer or a cornetist
to assist in attracting customers, and the
Klondike of the national organization of
Spanish war auxiliaries has the big talk
ing machine loaned by Kann's Sons. Many
of the booths have costumed attendants.
