ST. MARY'S SUNDAY SCHOOL BAZAAR.
The: attendance at the bazaar on Saturday afternoon was moderate, but in tbe evening the hall, as on the preceding night, waa thronged with vibitors up to a late hour. The Rifle's band, under Mr. Garry, was again present, and, by the excellent musical pieces they played, helped to infuse a largo amount of vitality into the proceedings.
At the stalls, business was brisk, the ladies, when not engaged iv selling, were busily employed in getting visitors to take a chance in some mild game. In the side room, attractions similar to the ones on the previous night were offered to the publio. The shooting gallery, art gallery, and the various minor games were all well patronised. The total receipts for the evening wore £100 75., and this added to the money taken on Friday night would make the total almost £190, against which it was reckoned thai £20 would be charged as expenses, so that the bazaar must be considered a financial success. Mr. S. Shaw disposed of a few things by auction towards the close. A meeting of all those who took part in the bazaar will be held in the Sunday Schoolroom some time next weßk, when a detailed statement will be submitted by the treasurer, Mr. Robinson, and suggestions made as to the expenditure of the money. This morning the dismantling of the stalls, etc., was begun.
