The Catholic Bazaar.

The ladies in charge of the Bazaar in the Oddfellows' Hall in aid of the Church funds began business on Saturday. As the attend ance when the Mayor arrived at neven o'clock was not sufficiently large (ihaiko no doubt to the holidays, and the fact that many of the country people were not aware of Saturday being the opening day) to warrant the Mayor making any formal speech, no address was delivered, but business went on juafe tbe same, and later in the evening there wac a fair attendance. And the visitors were liberal, too, for all the four •tails had satisfactory totals to report at the close of business. The hall presents a very jprebfcy sight, the stalls being well arranged, the colors of the draping chosen with taste, wad the festooning of it graoufui. Mesdames Small a»d Brankia have charge of No. 1 stall, the chief features of which are farm and dairy produce ; No. 2 is presided over by Mesdames Devaue and Adams, and is loaded with many samples of high class needlework ; I No 3 is under the command of Mrs Denis McKendry, and oonbains the contributions of the Children of Mary, many of them being pieces ot work th»t anyone would be proud to possess ; and No 4 stall has for its chief Mrs William Soal, whose care is for the inner man, and with the male portion at leasts of the visitors her stall was certainly popular. The bazaar was continued on Monday, and will be open all the week till the stock hat been cleared, when probably i!> will be closed by His Worship the Mayor.
