NO MIDWINTER
CARNIVAL
Executive Committed So De-
cided Yesterday After
noon,
THE A COMMITTEE
Reported That Many Citizens APP
peared to Lack Enthusiasm and
That Funds We're Not Pouring in
as Rapidly as Expected.

There will be no mid-winter q
nival.
That question was settled yes
terday afternoon when the executive
committee met at the court house.
The executive committee was not
discharged but continued in Office to
arrange for a carnival in 1900. The
members are to go to work early in
the summer so as to have everything
arranged in apple pie order when the
winter season of 190O-1901 rolls
round.
Each member of the committee was
assessed the sum of 81 to pay the *
penses incurred. Mr.. Morehead, of
the committee, gave ten dollars to the
fund, and other members paid amounts
exceeding the assessment. A re-
solution of thanks was rendered
Secretary Gould.
The report of the finance committee
follows:
To the chairman and members of the
Carnival Executive Committee:
Gentlemen: Your nance committee
begs to report that having devot-
ed largely of their time and no little
of their thought to the matter of rails
ing funds for the proposed ~Internation-
al Midwinter Carnival, they have sue
ceeded in securing subscriptions in the
sum of 81, 945, with q large part of the
business community yet to canvass
They believe hat with sufficient ef-
fort ample funds might probably be
raised for carnival purposes; but on the
other hand. they lay found an apathy
ind Indifference to the enterprise most
discouragingly general, while in some
instances amounting to actual oppost-
tiOn.
Confident that to secure the funds re-

Carnival Will Be Held,

While the executive committee has
decided not to hold a carnival this
yea the West Texas Saddlery Co.
will hold a carnival of it's own at PA
south Oregon street. They have
bargains in harness and saddles now
and in a short time will be ready with
another carnival in winter goods.
Don't buy till you have examined their
goods. The very best for the money.

THE RICHEST YET.
Dirt Struck In the Jarilla plaCers
That Yields 500 to the Yard.

The widest excitement was created
at the Jsrilla placers today when it be-
came known that Messrs. Breeze and
Pierce had struck dirt that yielded 500
to the cubic yard.
For q week or more men operating
dry washers in the sand have been
turning out $50 per day to the man,
with bed rock not in sight. The deep
er they went the richer was the dirt
found to be aud now the announcement
that dirt yielding 800 per yard will
cause no very great surprise in Ell
PasO.
It will, however, cause many persons
to deeply regret that they postponed
stalking out a claim until too late.

quisite to making the carnival q COM
plete success, would require more time
and labor than the respective business
enterprises of your committee will al
low them to bestow, they find them
selves constrained to resign the trust
committed to their hands, and respect
fully to request that their committee
be discharged.
