MYSTIC CIIAIN l'AIII.

It Chases Saturday Night in a, Perfect
late of lueaesa.

The six-night bazaar of Palestine
Castle, Ancient Order Knights of the
Mystic Chain, was brought to a close
Saturday night at 12 o’clock, in a perfect
halo of success. This reflects great cre-
dit on the committee having the sdair in
charge and the manner in which they
conducted the numerous details. All the
interest centered in the voting contests
and the dancing, and when the hour
came for the latter pleasure nearly every
one wanted to participate, which dimin-
ished the floor space very materially.

In the contest for the handsome pair of
gsvels the stock of Butler Lodge, [.0 0.
F,, ran high, that society securing 303
votes, while the rating of the other or-
ganizuionl was as follows: Olive
Branch Lodge, K. of P , 225; Uncas
Tribe, I. 0 R. M., 52: Our Brothers’
Lodge,l. O 0. F.. 38; Court Mahac
home, A. O. of F., 25, in the individual
gavel contest, for the most popular mem

ber of Palestine Castle, J oseph
Bartlem distanced all com
petitors, his vote being 457; Soles

man Scam, 197; George W. Coffin, 82;
J. W. Smith, 42; A. D. Buzzard, ll;
George Gerrisb, 4; Philip Brundege, 2;
William Fraser, 1, and Fred Saunders, 1.

On account of the interest in these
events, the committee did not deem it
advisable to chance off the other articles.
This will be done tonight, when there
will also be a sale of the remaining fancy
articles. The admlslion will be free.

Three hundred and thirty-four tickets
were said Saturday night. The attend-
dance was upwards of 400.
