sat on the grand stand under the warm
rays Of the sun.
AT nTst the Onl0okers were very patient.
The tournament was announced for /
o'clock. and at that hour the grand stand
was filed with people who had paid %
cents for a seat. They took the suDbath
until 2. Then they began TO wonder at the
delay. As the gayly dressed eauesIrians
con tinued to occupy the space in front Of
the cameras the thousands on the grand
atand hooted and yelled in derision.
An even larger number watched the
tournament from around the fence and
from the steps of the grand stand where
people occupied elevated and shady seats
without charge. When o'clock passed
and the first number of the programme
bad yet to be given, people began to leave
the grand stand. The box-office was sur
rounded by an angry crowd, who demanded
their money back. Instead of seeking to
pacify these disap ointed patrons the
Wholesalers ridiculed their demands and
largely increased their dissatisfaction.

Festival Hall about 3:15 o'clock, saluted
and called out in his loudest voice, THE

guard over to his quarters to ascertain
what new trouble existed. He came back

announced.

IL was fete day at the Midwinter Fair.
Inc crowds on the exposition grounds be-

could easily see that the Mardi Gras revels
would be witnessed by large concourse

Airy costumes were the rule yesterday
and at the tournament Rex was heard to
voice his longing for beer, the wish accom-
panied by a regretful sigh that his desire
could not be gratitied on the spot.
The great crowd which went out TO en-
JOY the carnival waited until the evening
and from that time on the cars poured an
endless stream Of pleasure seekers into the
fair grounds. Even at sunset the grounds
were thronged, but when the grand court
WAS illuminated the lights fell upon a
crowd of people such as had never Fl led
the court before. AS the time for Rex to
appear approached the crowds grew
denser. and 1t is safe to say that there
were thousands more on the grounds last
night than on any previous evening since
the fair opened.
But they waited long and impatiently
before the carnival came in sight. The
