The Fog of Yesterday Did
Not Prevent a Fine Dis
play Of EQuipages.
Fewer Were in Line Than Be-
fore, But They Were
More Dashing.
The Curriers' Had a Merry
Time, in Which All Joined
Yesterday.
To-Day Will Wind Up the Car
nival, Which Ends in
Fireworks.

1t was as diSagreeable day out doors
as any in the winter calendar. a fine,
pelting sleet kept falling from early
morn, making it decidedly uncomfor-
table for pedestrians and pleasure
seekers. The sIush under foot was no
less diSagreeable than the cherries
gray overhead, and it was with the ut |
most difficulty that any Roadway at all |
could be made. But is was corSO day |
the day set apart by the Carnival asSo- |
citation for the display of eQuipageS-
and, Notwithstanding the general gloom
prevailing, there was a splendid display
of turnOutS of all kinds, even eXcelling
the display of last week. Summit ave-
nue. presented a lively and pretty APP
pearance with its hundreds of rapidly
moving eQuipageS, passing and repasS-
ing one another. Every style of
rig was represented, from the
common boX-sleigh to the elegant three
seated Russian. There were singles
double teams, tandemS, three-abreaStS
and four-in-hands without limit. The
horses were decked out in plumeS, rib
hons. rOSetteS and StreamerS of every
description. and each lover of horse
flesh seemed to vie with his neighbor in
the elaboration Of display. After about
an hours brushing" up and down the
avenue procession was formed which
proceeded to the Ice Palace grounds
over the line of march. At O'Clock
the column entered the grounds and
passed in review before the judges, who
stood at the east entrance of the palace.
The Judges found considerable difficulty
in awarding prizes owing to the many
splendid rigs in line. After a short con-
sultation the judges, }. B. Tarbox, Maj.

heads together and made the following
