Many Novel Attractions at the Car- roll Institute Fair. Carroll Institute never presented a more attractive appearance or contained a more animated crowd than it did last night, on the occasion of the opening of the fair in- augurated for the benefit of the organiza- tion. Every nook and corner in the build- ing was crowded, and the large hall, with the booths on <ither side, and its profuse and artistic adornments, was the gathering Place for a brilliant assemblage. President N. T. Taylor of the institute made an ad- dress of welcome at 8 o'clock, formally opening the fair, and was followed by Rev. Dr. D. J. Stafford, who reviewed the splen- did work accumplished by the institute dur- ing Its twenty years’ existence. "The busi- ness of the fair then began in earnest, and the various booths and attractions were generously patronized. The fair is being held for the purpose of raising funds to meet the urgent obligations hanging over the institute, and is expected to substan- tially help toward this object. It will con- tinue for two weeks. There are many novel features.
