The skating Carnival.

As predicted, the skating carnival at the
rink last night was one of the most brilliant
events of the kind ever witnessed IN the
city. The costumes we're varied and
unique, and many of them costly and ele-
CANT. The skating was fine, many of the
ladies and gentlemen gliding through the
graceful evolutions with marvellous ease

throng of spectators and skaters. Thus
the skating season, which has been very
successful one, closed brilliantly and pleas
antly. Before another season rink wor-
thy the city and the amusement will, no
doubt, be opened.
