The Success; Of tn. Entertainment
From Financial Standpoint

Will Attend the Charity Ball.

The preparations for the reception
of Prince and Princess Carnival have
been completed and now nothing re
mains to be done except to wait until
| tonight to do the royal couple honor
| by treading measure to their success
and good health at the building for
| merly known as the Drill Shed. There
| is no doubt now about the success OF
the Mardi Gras from a financial stand
point for the tickets have been nearly
all sold and there is quite a strong
demand for them by people who at
| first held back from securing the
coveted bits Of pasteboard and now
find that they are going to have some
difhculty in procuring them. The Ia
dies who have charge Of the admissions
say that they Will provide some more
tickets today and that ali who really
want to help the Eye and Ear Inirm-
AIRY will have an opportunity to do so.
A person who las been familiar
with the appearance of the interior OF
the Drill Shed would have some trou-
BILE in recognizing the place now that
it has been changed and decorated for
the Mardi Gras. Draped boxes line
the sides of the hall, stage for the
accommodation of the musicians has
been arranged and amid the bewilder-
ing sea of color of the decorations and
bunting .ittle remains to remind one
of the ugly old shed.
The regal diadems of the royal cou-
pie have arrived from San Francisco
and are very elaborate. That of the
Princess is especially ornate. 1t is a
filigree band having three sunbursts
of gold and jewels. 1t stands well up
from tn, DAINTY head of the Princess
and is NEST marvelously becoming tn
her.
Prince McGrew's crown is of the or
binary type of diadem and is formed
with band and series of golden
spikes.
1t is announced that all moneys re-
ceived by the local subjects for the
sale of tickets to the entertainment
should be turned over to either Mr..
or Mrs. A. G. Halves by noon of We'd
