Of others are to form the nucleus of
the veterans club Every person who
is eligible is urgently requested to be
present at the meeting tomorrow night.
The National Guard club will also
meet tomorrow night at the armory.
This club started off well, and gave
promise Of being the largest in the
city, but the sleep of death has been
threatening 1t Of late. Now 1t is pro-
posed to go ahead and secure a much
cheaper uniform than the elegant blue
and white one first adopted, and it Is
hoped that at least 100 members of
the guard will be under the command
of Mai. Price, of the First regiment.
Every militia man is requested to be
at the armory tomorrow evening to
hear what Maj. Price has to say about
the new uniform.
Judge Cory has resigned the position
of general manager, in order to be free
to attend the curling bonspiel at Du-
luth. He is president of the Association
of Curriers', who felt that he ought to
attend the meeting and participate in
the games. The work he has been doing
will be attended to by volunteers hence
forth, but will be carried on without a
break.
The board Of directors has decided
that the use of the toboggans and Of
the slides shall be absolutely free to all
visitors to Fort Karnival. The slides
will be open day and night, and no
charge will be made for anything con-
nected with them. AS these slides are
200 yards in length and built in the
most approved fashion, one running
east and the other west, the directors
hope that the public will use them to
their full capacity.
Schuneman & Evans carnival brigade
will parade tomorrow evening at 7:45
almost 100 strong, with their own band.
Every man will carry a torch of special
design, with the firm name inscribed
thereon.
On next Friday night every club in
the city that has it's uniform ready will
be asked to parade with torches, and it
is possible that visit will be paid to
Minneapolis by the whole outfit A sight
of several hundred brilliantly uniformed
people will do the Minneapolitans lots
OF good, for they are nothing If not en-
thusiastic over. there. Strange as it
may seem, the carnivalites who went
oyer to the Mill City last Thursday
evening say that there was more cheer
ing along the streets, late as it was.
I than they have yet heard in ST. Paul
Minneapolis will be numerously repre-
scented in st. Paul during the carnival
festivities.
