THE FALL CARNIVAL.
Arrangements Soon to BE Perfected
and the Work Pushed.

The committee to whom some time
since was referred the preliminary
matters for the Fall Carnival, held q
meeting at the H. sW. Lyman offices
Monday evening and talked over and
discussed the various needs and pros
poets to insure the greatest success
and draw to the city during carnival
week the greatest number of people.
1t was definitely decided that a guar.
antee fund of from s4 900 to SIS, 900 was
the first essential step in the right di-
rectioR, and a committee for that
purpose will be named soon. The in
tention of this fund is simply a guar
antee to the outside world that we
mean business and have the cash to
pay our bills in case the weather or
other conditions are against US, and
like the Elks races guarantee fund of
last summer will all be paid back at
the close if the carnival has met with
any success. Other committees will
also be named shortly and then alto
gether with a strong pull we can have
the biggest week Oskaloosa or central
Iowa ever had. Hurry up with your
trolley lines and give the people a
chance to come to the big carnival.

And then came the matter of the
street cars for the consideration of
the whole council. The first one to
be considered by the meeting was the
ordinance of the Oskaloosa and Tama
Street Car company. 1t was moved
that the ordinance that had been in
the hands of the special committee
for number of days be placed on its
first reading and the motion was car
ried. The ordinance presented by
this company was read by Clerk Chas.
Leighton, section by section. 1t was
an instrument somewhat lengthy, but
the reading was followed closely by
the entire house. at the conclusion
Of the reading of this ordinance it was
moved that the new ordinance, which
will be known as Ordinance No. 225,
be passed upon its first reading, which
thing was done by the unanimous
vote of the council.
1t was then permitted Mr.. O'Neill
to read the ordinance of the Inter
urban Traction Company for the
building and maintaining Of street
car system in the city of oskaloosa.
The reading of this ordinance, which
was similar to the one preceding, was
followed by the reading OF the ordi-
nance for the lighting of the city Of
Oskaloosa for the next twenty-five
years. Arc lights at $3.50 and mean
descents of 32-candle power at $500
each.
Following the reading of the Tama
and Oskaloosa ordinance a motion
prevailed that it be referred to the
ordinance committed and these gem
tlemen will look over the same and

liens of Oskaloosa to consider some
of the sections. The committee that
