MONEY TO LEND.
IberiaBuilding Association
HAY STIVAI..

While the weather was seem
ingly spiteful against the I'm
sectarlan Aid Society Wednesday
the doubtful entertainment was
rot a failure.
The ladies of the Society and
those on the committee of ar
rangements are to be praised
tor the manner in which they
made best of the situation and
provided good things for the
young folks. Late in the af
ternoon there were many pat
rons OF mature age and these
remains till time to attend the
ball across the street at the City
Hall.
The exercises were very en-
tertalning. The first number
on the program was the May
pole dance. The children were
drilled for this dance by Mrs.
Julien Ewes, and too much
praise cannot be given her, for
the manner and perfection in
which the several figures we're
executed. 1t would be difficult
to imagine a more beautiful
sight than these forty little boys
and girls keeping time and step
to the music.
The next number was 4 cake
walk, taken part by twenty Jour
OF the prettlest and brightest
little ladies in our City. These
young Misses were all dressed
to represent some flower, and
their costumes were true to the
subject and beautifully. The
last, but by no means the least
was the congress of beauties.
] his congress was composed OF
twenty of the prettiest girls OBJ
talnable. They were dressed to
represent the different nations,
and the idea was carried out
perfectly. The audience was
requested after viewing one OF
the prettiest tableaus ever
grouped here to vote for the
prettlest girl.
Miss Anna Blancbet received
the highest majority. She re-
presented Gypsy girl. This
feature of the affair was worth
several times the price of ad
mission.
