THE DANCE GOES ON.
Another Grand Storuing OF the Ice
Palace Decided Upon.
Polo and Fancy skating at the Palace
Grounds.
1t VIII Ne stormsd Again.

The beginning Of the third week Of the
carnival season has seen q renewal OF the
cold weather of two weeks ago, which
tends to infuse renewed enthusiasm for
carnival sports. Although standing out of
doors to see carnival attractions when the
temperature Is 20o below zero has its
drawbacks there is no denying the fact that
warm weather knocks the enthusiasm out
OF an Ice carnival. although the only result
OF it was to enforce some changes in the
program. While a warm day has its adj
vantages for spectators it is conducive to
mellowness and general humidity of ice that
interferes somewhat with skating exhibit
tions. polo games and even curling bon
spiel. That the success of the carnival.
however. has not been interfered with Is
sufficiently shown by the announcement of
directors that no assessments will be made
upon the stock and that dividend will be
declared. The theory that everybody
would witness the palace stOrming scenes
from the neighbOring hills proved mistake,
for while thousands availed themselves of
these dead-head posts of observation thOus-
ands upon thousands more paid the Stipu
lated fee TO see the display from
inside the fences. thus dropping many
dollars into the exchequer of the assoeia-
ton. The results OF the two stoTmings
have been so satisfactory that another has
been determined upon. to take place next
Tuesday evening when. with the Grand
Army entrenched in the castle. the COM
bined forces of the Ice King and the Fire
King, including all snowshoe. tobUggan and
skating clubs. will make an effort to recap
ture the stronghold, but without avail. ac-
companied by an unusually brilliant dis
play IF pyrotechnies- The bad condition
Of the streets has necess. .ated postponing
the equipage display, which was to have
come off this afternoon, until after a snow

t The board of fire commissioners held a
Especial meeting last night to consider the
