viii Open Monday Morning aud
Continue Until Saturday
Night.
All Are Invited to Assist Father
Raffo in His Cherished
Work.
MAYOR HEAD WILL OFFICIATE

The bazar to be given from April
"a to April 30 inclusive at Lieder-
kranz Hall for the benefit of the
new and handsome Church of st.
Charles Borromeo, being erected al
Twenty-seventh and Chestnut
streets by the Rev. Charles p. Raffo,
gives every indication of being one
of the most elaborate and successful
affairs of the kind ever held in this
city.
The doors will swing open on
Monday morning at 10 o'clock and
will remain open until late Saturday
evening. Mayor William o. Head,
the members of the Boards of Pub
lie Safety and Public Works and
other prominent city officials have
been specially invited to be present
for diner on the opening day and
to formally put into motion the
wheels of the bazar.
The widespread encouragement
and generous support which has
been shown the bazar workers from
all sides give every assurance that
this bazaar shall be a social, enter
tanning, artistic and financial sue
cess. So many useful, ornamental
and valuable articles have been re-
ceived as donations from the various
merchants and business houses of
the city that the interior of the
bazar will present a regular fairy
land Of practical and beautiful OBJ
jects. II would be almost impos-
sible to enumerate even the most
costly articles, but a fine piano, an
excellent grafonola, a diamond ring,
lady's and gentleman's gold watch,
clock, blue-blooded chickens. stoves,
automatic swing, hand embroidered
linens, furniture, ornaments and
so on will be prominent SO varied
will be the assortment of goods and
good things that one need but ex-
press the wish to see any particular
thing and 1t will be shown him.
The new church, of which the be-
loved and we'll known Rev. Charles
p Raffo is pastor, and for which
this bazar is being given, will be a
most beautiful, stately and God-like
edifice. It will cost when COM
pleted in the neighborhood of
100000. It will be an ornament
and a matter OF architectural pride
for not only the West End but also
for the city at large-a house which
for years to come will be the center
for the moral and religious uplift of
the community. The congregation
of st. Charles Borromeo, having for
years made no appeal for assistance
to the public and having always
been among the leaders In the con-
duct of bazars, ETC., for other insti-
tutions, feel that in shouldering this
unusual burden they have a reason
able and just right to request the
cooperation and assistance of those
outside the immediate parish in this
undertaking.
The corps OF bazar workers in
charge are sufficiently experienced
TO smoothly and delightfully."- manage
every detail OF the coming event.
Those who visit the bazar may rest
assured that entertainment and So
clal features will play prominent
part and they need not fear that
they will be bounded TO death by
solicitors, nor their pocketbood
drained to its last drop of blood.
During meal hours there will be
absolutely no soliciting In the dining
room, so that those who desire to
visit the bazar simply for the meals
may come and go without the slight
est interference. No special nights
will be set aside for any societies or
particular classes. but any organiza-
tion which desires TO seelct def
mite night and attend in a body will
be welcome. The general arrange
ments for the booths, dining room
and other features will be largely
similar to previous affairs OF this
nature, but many novelties and spe-
cial attractions will be offered.
Dinner will be served daily from
IL till 2 o'clock and supper from
till O'Clock. The tables win be
laden with all the dainties of the
season, served and prepared by the
ladies OF the congregation. The
menu will be sufficiently attractive
and varied TO suit the most fastid-
ious, and special attention win be
given so that everyone win be
served promptly and satisfactorily.
Tickets for either diner or supper
will be sold at twenty-five cents.
