THE SKATING RINK.


The invitations issued by Messrs. O'Con-
nor u Knapp to attend the opening entertain
ment of the Exposition Hall Skating Rink
which took place last night, was 30 generally
responded to by the fortunate recipients that
the hall, large as tt Ia, was crowded-sc
crowded, In fact, that it required no little skill
to get about on the skates and avoid col
lisions. The attendance was not only exceed.
ugly large. but was very select. great care
having been exercised in issuing the invita-
lions.
The hall had been specially prepared for
the reception Of guests. The flags OF all ma
lions hung from the columns, running
through it, and transparencies were strung
from pillar to pillar.
The programme included an exhibition OF
fancy and scientific skating by Prof. Nc
Millen. His skill and grace created consider
able enthusiasm, and elected great applause.
The hall has been greatly improved since
last year, one Of the principal improvements
being a new fioor, which Is as smooth as
glass.
The musicians stand la suspended from the
ceiling in the centre OF the hall, aud It's posi-
tion is not only q convenient one, but 1t adds
no little to the general appearance.
The rink will be open every day and even
Ing except Sunday, and Prof. McMillen will
be In attendance at given hours to Instruct
and advise patrons.

plicity Of the words Of the libretto; that
Correli's and Laurent s-the principal parts

the performance greatly. Nevertheless and

The divisions and dlssensions that have
prevailed In the tenth ward have caused great
confusion In the minds Of the voters Of the
ward, and at q time threatened to open the
way for the ward to be badly represented In
the coming convention.
From card In another column 1t will be
seen that two OF the principal factions sen
sibly appointed conference committees, and
failing to agree to unite upon either Of the
candidates for the presidency OF the central
club, both Mr.. O'Neil and Mr.. LOBBY have. In
the interest Of harmony, Withdrawn as candi-
dates, and unite in supporting Mr.. +. G. Car
roll.
The conference committees have acted with
moderation and wisdom, and we have no
doubt but that their recommendations will
have great weight with the voters OF the
ward. We hope the tenth will send sterling
delegation to the Baton Rouge convention.
