We handle goods that are cheap, but

The broad reason is satisfaction. Peo-
pie are satisfied with the Blinzler mer-

KNIGHTS OF
COLUMBUS NIGHT.
Most Pleasing Event-Large At
tendance and Enjoyable
Occasion.

Emporium's Opera House was crowd
March Goth, the occasion being the
much-talked-of ball and reception of
the Emporium Council, No. 900,
Knights of Columbus. The people,
who were lucky enough to receive in
vitations to the seasons greatest event,
looked forward with the keenest in
terest for the good time in store for
them and none were disappointed.
The hall never looked as pretty as at
this time, the decorations being very
elaborate. The stage was adorned
with full setting of small trees, back
of which the famous Germania Orches-
ira of Lock Haven. was stationed. A
large picture of Columbus occupied
conspicuous place in the centre of the
stage. The walls and ceilings were
draped with bunting and hundreds of
red, white and blue electric lights
were festoored from each corner of the
hail and through the centre, meeting
HI lui &c SilSlC ih tllO Vi
the room. The electric display was
the work of Messrs. B. J. Erskine,
Everett Person and Frank McCloskey.
The committee in charge of the decor
ations certainly deserve great credit
and everybody in attendance at the
ball were very enthusiastic in their
praise of the handiwork which chang
ed the cheerless hall into a place of
grandeur, will long be remembered.
The beautiful evening gowns worn by
the ladies and the many happy faces.
radiant with smiles and good cheer,
added greatly to the appearance. The
Germania Orchestra rendered as usual,
the music in their impressive manner
and one could not resist the tempta-
tion to dance. The program was very
neat and contained list of twenty
fonr dance. After the list of dances
! were half completed intermission was
called at which time delicious refresh
ments were served on the stage, to
which the hungry dancers did ample
justice. Several new ideas in dances
were carried out during the dance,
some of which were the moon waltz, fire
waltz, and spot waltz, in fact all the
dances were one continual round of
pleasure, which were greatly enjoy
ed by the large and happy assemblage,
who remained at the hall until the
"wee sma' hours" and even then were
reluctant to leave the hall, where they
had spent such a happy evening.
There was about 400 people present,
many guests from out of town being in
attendance, Remove, Lock Haven, st.
Marys, Ridgway, Olean, and several
other places being represented. Mr..
Thomas E. Law, acted as Master OF
Ceremonies and it was through his un-
firing efforts and with the assistance
of his we'll chosen co-workers Messrs
Jas. Haley, Jas. Kearney and G. Har-
