St. Paul daily globe., 1895-11-24

first sight there may seem to be a
beWildering multiplicity of features,
yet the games, amusements and en-
tertainmentS are to be so arranged
and dove-tailed together that pleas
ure will be on tap for everybody
about every hour that the carnival
is to continue. The general pro-
gramme committee has selected it's
subcommittee with great care, and
these will at once proceed to ar
range the details of the various
events which will be in their charge.
President Bean and Secretary Bowl
by are keeping in close touch with
the work that is under way, and
these two gentlemen constitute a
team that know not the meaning OF
the word fail.
Carnival headquarters will be es-
tablished Tuesday in the Germania
Life building. A large and comfort
able room has been secured on the
second floor, on the corner of Fourth
and Minnesota streets, and Assist
ant Secretary Ryder will take charge
on the date named. 1t is the inten-
ton to make it not only the car
nival headquarters, but a bureau of
information for local clubs and for
visiting people. - .
From present indications the diff
ferent secret societies which are
forming. carnival clubs will cut
very wide sWath in the exercises
scheduled. Several of them are
pushing the work of organization at
a racing gait, and ere anXiously
waiting for the executive commit
tee to announce the prizes and condi-
tions for the early competition of
be selected for the contest.
Every day the carnival officers are
receiving inquiries as to club Or
ganiZation. They des4e to have it
known that a special committee is to
be named at once to have the care of
this special matter, and s--ery pos
sible aid will be given 10 clubs de-.
string to organize. Early action is
urged as being most desirable be-
cause the secretary will keep a record
Of date of organization and names of
officers. The Importance of this feat
ure will be better understood when it
is stated that the officers intend to
lay the foundation for making the
st. Paul Winter Carnival a perma-
nent fixture in the civic and social
life of St. Paul.
The first of the old-time carnival
clubs to begin reorganization will
be the Columbia. No club has
prouder record for enthusiastic work,
and it is intended to get. to the
front again this winter. DR.. Bean,
president of the Columbia, desires
that all the members attend a meet
ing Tuesday evening at o'clock at
carnival headquarters in the Ger
mania Life building He also re-
quests that members who cannot at
tend the meeting shall send to him
their names and addresses.
Tomorrow afternoon at o'clock the
finance committee will meet at the Of
flee of the chairman, William Dawson
Ol'J III lllC DoIllh VI AL IllE5
meeting the city will be districted and
committees will be namsd to gather
contributions from men in every line of
business. AS soon as this work is well
under way the various subcommittee
will have apportioned to them specific
sums for specific purposes, and they
will be held strictly to the limit Not
a cent is to be wasted or miSspent, and
the names of the gentlemen composing
the finance committee are a sufficient
guarantee Of this fact. From the pres
ent outlook the greatest aggregation
of curriers' ever brought together in
America will be in st. Paul during the
carnival season. Every club in Can
ada will be invited to send representa-
tives to contest for the prizes and
trophies, and from Manitoba a large
number of rinks will surely come. Sec
retary Bowlby left last evening for the
East, and while away he will see to 1T
that Eastern people are informed as to
the features of the carnival. .-s>.~
Prof John Ryder, director of Ryder's
orchestra, has written a carnival
march that is pronounced a gem, and
has dedicated it to the association: 1t
will be heard-in public very shortly.
