1T WAS SOLDIERS NIGHT.
Fort Riley Boys Held a Carnival Of
Their Own.

Abilene had a carnival last night
all by itself with the assistance Of
about 500 Fort Riley soldiers. The
boys were paid off yesterday and as
they are at outs with Junction City,
owing to the charge OF 10 cents each
way on the electric line between town
and fort, they came to Abilene to
spend their money. They arrived on
the plug Of $3.50 and had no reason to
be displeased with their reception.
Most OF the city officers and a large
section Of population was at the depot
to meet them; the stores were open
and 1t was intended to have the band
out but that failed. The soldiers had
