THE ICE LION UNVEILED.
Carnival Week Opened at Nontrea
Under Most Favorable Auspices.

Carnival Week Opened at Montreal
Under Most Favorable Auspices.
MONTREAL, Jan. 26.-The opening day of
the carnival has proved lovely as could
have been desired. A clear blue sky over
head, plenty of new-fallen snow to make ev-
erything look bright, and light furry of
snow, with the thermometer sufficiently low
to be exhilarating, but not cold enough to be
unpleasant, such is the way in which the
carnival week has been ushered in The ice
palace will be finished tonight and the
Condora sometime tomorrow. All to-day
st. James street has been thronged, but the
great rush is not yet come. Tomorrow will
witness big excursions from New York, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia and other American cities
All the hotels are filling fast, but the lodg
ings committee can provide accommodations
for at least three thousand when the hotels
are full. The carnival was inaugurated by
the opening of all the toboganning slides.
There was large turnout this evening
when the whole line of tracks were lighted
by Chinese lanterns. The event OF the
afternoon was the opening OF the boulevard
to st. Helen's Island and the corso on the
St. Lawrence. The boulevard is nicely traced
out by means of trees, paths either side
being marked out for pedestrians for dis
lance of four hundred or five hundred Yards.
The ice lion was unveiled about $40 this
evening Upwards of ten THOUSAND people
witnessed the Inauguration. The ice palace
is partly illuminated and is magnificent
