young ladies in 81. Johns church, in
proportion 10 membership. than in any
church organization outside Of Wichita
and they are all present at the carnival.
One is almost tempted to again describe
the scenes at the carnival. but as they
were described in detail in yesterday
mornings paper a repetition would be
unnecessary. Besides ii would be a
hard matter TO convey 10 the reader
an accurate conception of what can be
seen at the carnival, by attempting 10
describe ii in writing. The best meth
Cd of ascertaining the information is 10
go there in person and see the reveal
ton OF pretty things and pretty people.
Professor Madden's educated dog
SanchO is, in his peculiar antics, worth
double the price of admission, TO see.
He is one of the heroes OF the enter
tainment and no one should miss seeing
and hearing him; for this wonderful
dog can actually talk. He IS a real
novelty.
Among the catchy features OF last
nights entertainment was the colonial
minuet participated in by the following
little children: Edwin Aylesbury. Re
Meta Garst. Jennette Vail, Maurice
Majors. Margaret Bliss, Cyrus Leland,
Mildred Frazier. Daryl Denny, Cor
rhine Ludlum, aVillard Brooks, COrne-
LA Vail. Tom Baker, Claude Larimer.
Jay Chapel, Ella Chandler Bert Che
ring. Grace Moody, Gene Calhoun, OIL
lie Magill, Ben Warren. Maude Rentz,
Robert Norris, Jessie Spangler, Verne
Dyer, Edna Stillwell, George Majors,
Maud Rix.
This feature was decidedly interest
ing and was the admiration OF every
body.
The fortune telling is spoken of as a
wonderful feature of the fair. All
kinds of fortunes can be told there with
the most phenomenal accuracy. II a
young woman wants a husband with
black, curly hair, fine large blue eyes,
a pair of pretty dimples, the form Of
an AdOnis and an income of $4,000 a
year she is sure of having him assigned
TO her by every line of the hand and
cut of the cards. The fortune tellers
string out human lives TO astonishing
length and make ii all a picnic Of per-
petual youth and fiowery paths. Such
a fortune is worth innumerable times
more than the price of prediction.
Those who do not want life so very
long but want il we'll sustained need
only to step into the first tent from
the door where the succulent oyster
can be found strictly in the swim-and
many of him. These oysters were
brought especially from the far off cas-
tern coast for this especial occasion.
He is none of your comomn oysters
either but belong TO the giant stock so
seldom seen in the west. Those who
like 10 linger over a cup of coffee and
indulge in a little chit chat, can find
no better place in Wichita for that
purpose. The ladies serve coffee that
makes dreams and visions of delight
for a week after drinking IL.
One of the pretty things seen in the
floral booth last night was black lily
presented by Mr.. Mueller the florist.
1t is said to be the first ever seen in
Wichita and the student Of plants
should not fail to see it. 1t costs moth
ing extra to see this freak of nature.
The carnival is held in Garfield hall,
a building SO large that there are no
discOmfOrtS there. This afternoon
there Will be a matinee commencing at
o'clock and at night the regular car
nival entertainment which will be the
browning event of the week. 1t will
be a matter of regret if any person
shall fail 10 see the carnival and to-
night is the last chance.
