Catholic Fair a Fine Success.

The two days bazaar held at the Gem
theatre on Tuesday and Wednesday of
this week, in aid of the Catholic church,
was fine success. They had a wide
range of attractions and took in hand-
some sum, which will net them about
$500 clear of expenses. One of the
leading attractions was the contest for
the most popular young lady. Several
young ladies were entered in the con-
test, but it was finally narrowed down
to two, Miss Mabel Taquino and Miss
Ouida Seigel, the latter winning by a
vote of 453 to 434.
The ladies in charge of the fair re-
quest the Chronicle TO return their
thanks to the citizens of Colfax who

call of time. He stated on his death
bend to his wife and children and to
many of his friends that he could see
his way perfectly clear. that there was
nothing in his way. He asked US not

tears were shed. But we can look back
and know from the life he lived that
he is much better off and is reapine
his reward in heaven. He leaves de

For we can meet him
