The large hall at St Anthony's Catholic
church never looked prettier than II did
last evening the occasion being the open
Ing OF the annual bazaar by the st. An
thony society. There was large at
tendance and all appeared TO be OF a very
liberal disposition. The main attraction,
however. was the minstrel performance
given by the young men OF the parish.
and while none OF the boys were a prtm-
rose a West or a Thatcher they, never
theless. demonstrated the fact that they
possessed considerable talent In the min
Ftrel line.
Among the young men who took promi !
nent part were John Lucitt. who the |

formance before the bazaar closes.
