Carnival of Madrid.

The rain spoiled the programme ar
ranged for S2ltair last evening, which
was to be a repetition of the Carnival
of Madrid with variations. The at
tendance was much larger than was to
be expected, considering the threaten
ing weather late in the afternoon and
evening The last train for the beach
arrived during the progress of a brisk
thunder shower, and many people Sc3
thoroughly wet without going near the
water while they were Sprinting for the
pavilion from the train. Dainty skirts
were raised 50 as to be above high
water. and men and women made the
best time possible regardless of appear
ances their only desire being TO get
in out of the wet.
OF course, there could be no perform
ance on the regular stage, hence the
management announced that there
would be an entertainment given by
some of the speciality people in the
main pavilion, which had the effect Of
putting the crowd in a, good humor.
AT 8 O'Clock there was a. dance act on
the stage by a pretty little lady, which
was followed by the bicycle expert.
These people did their work in the
most acceptable manner, but many
people were prevented from seeing as
clearly as they should because of the
constant moving about of the restless
portion of the crowd 1t would have
been very easy for two or three COM
petent men to have so arranged the
people about the pavilion that all could
have enjoyed the specialties, without
the constant annoyance occasioned by
people who have no regard for the
comfort of others, who persisted in
sliding their chairs about in a vain
attempt to follow the gyrafions of the
man ON the wheel. This is not the
first time that first-class entertain
ments at Saltair have been seriously
marred by this neglect of the manage
ment in this particular. There is plenty
of room for two or three thousand
people to be ranged about that great
pavilion in a. manner so that all can
see and at the same time have plenty
Of room for the performers. 1t is by
no means an interference with the
privilege of any man or woman to
compel them to stand or be seated out
side of certain boundary lines, and no
one can justly complain if they should
be fired bodily when they encroach
upon the forbidden space.
little firnnesS and determination
on the part CT the men in charge of
the pavilion is all that is necessary.

This man Ellis is a crook from first

mines in Salt Lake and in many other
mining camps. He tells a story about
how he had to leave Butte, Mont, for
some of his dirty work; he had his

artillery practice by the ships of the
Mediterranean squadron near here yes
terday the torpedo cruiser Vantour fir
ed her machine guns at a target which
was being towed by the battleship
Brennus. Through some fault in the
management of the guns, the shot from
the Vantour was showered upon the
bridge of the Brennus, where Admiral
Gervais and the officers of his staff
were stationed in the coming tower OBJ
serving the practice. The glass in the
windows of the tower were shattered,
and the structure badly injured, but
fortunately the admiral and his aides
were not hurt. The helmsman of the
Brennus. however, was seriously
wounded.
