The wonder of those who go to the Har-

can be offered to the public at such mimi

table of the Harnett is as good as that OF
the Screven House, and the rates just one
half as large. Courteous treatment makes

The first appearance of DIR. Carver's
"Wild Vest at the Base Ball Park yes
terday afternoon and evening was grand
success, and embraces new and original
attractions, strictly moral and instructive
in their nature, such as we have never
before witnessed in an advertised exhibit
ton. The performance commences with
a very exciting Indian pony race, in which
the Indians ride without saddles, exhibit
ing some very daring and skillful eques-
trian feats, actually hanging on the sides
of their horses while running at full
speed. The ''pOnv express" with its
rapid changes, ridden by Mr.. johnson, an
old and experienced express rider from
the plains. was a very interesting feature.
The attack on the DeadwoOd stage-c0ach
by the Indians and its subsequent rescue
by the cowboys led by DR.. Carver, was
a grand and exciting exhibition, and
leaves an impression upon the mind
long to be remembered. The roping, or
lassoing. riding, the Texas cattle was
interesting, to say the least. The cow
bows exhibited great skill in riding the
bucking horses, which almost seemed to
want to stand on their heads. The eXhi-
bition closed with grand hunt on the
plains. and the capture and death OF
trapper. At night the grounds were
beautifully illuminated, and taking DR..
Carver's exhibition as a whole IL must be
considered a great perfOrmance-mOre
realistic and lte-like than any exhibition
we have ever witnessed.-AdU.
