THE CARNIVAL GROUNDS.
Good Crowds Follow Bad Wcather-
Shows Well Patronizcd

The weather having cleared up there
was a good crowd Of people at the grounds
occupied by the Morris & Berger combined
carnival and mighty midway yesterday.
The shows were all we'll patronized.
Lunette, the flying lady, was one Of the
attractions that drew people. This act
is one of the most marvellous ever seen.
The beautiful lady is first hypnotizcd,
she then ascends into the air and the ped
estal on which she stands is removed and
proves to be only an empty box.
The most marvellous part of the act is
that she comes out over the heads Of the
audience and an iron hoop is passed over
her body to show that she is free from
support Of any kind.
Then the audience is entertained with
moving pictures and deeds of firemen is
shown with all of its danger. including
the scene of the horseiess fire engines. Of
they go TO a fire. the engine
in action, and the return home. The
burning of four-story building on the
water front of the city of Milwa ukee,
showing the tremendous stream thra WI
by the fire tug in the harbor. Az Ter
thrilling scene is the catching OF man
in net Then it gives the battle of the
Gordon Higlllanders at Spion Kop. South
Africa. The show is interesting and
and one that takes.
Besides these interesting exhibitions.
there are others just as good, to say
nothing Of the many free attractions to
be seen on the grounds. including the high
dive maze by Professor McComb. the
worlds greatest high diver. There is some
thing 10 see every minute OF the day and
night.

RECITAL BY MISS MOSBY.
Interesting and Delightful Musicul
Event at the Woman's Club.

One of the most interesting musical
events in several years was the piano re-
cital at the Woman's Club Monday af-
ternoon by Miss Elizabeth Amiss Mostly.
She played entirely from memory the fol-
lowing programme:
Won Weber .............La Gazette Op. s.
Mills .......... Concert Etude OPP. No. 1
Fairy Fingers, Op. "A.
Rissini-Iiszt Charlie
Schurann ..Traumes Wirren, .Op. Il, No. Z
Chopin ........... Ballade A fat, OPP. Ii
Bendel Die Silberquelle. OPP. l3:
Mendelssohn.. Rondo Brilliant E fiat, Op. %
Miss Mosby is one of the favorite pupils
of the distinguished Instructor, n. Bow
ditch Clapp. She commanded not only
the applause but the close attention and
deep interest Of her hearers, because she
not only knows how to play the piano
according to the score, but comprehends
music and absorbs and interprets the
meaning the composer seeks to express.
Her performance was brilliant and accu-
rate from technical point Of view. and
charming in the highest musical sense.
All who have heard her agree enthusiast
tically with Professor Clappss prediction
that she is destined to take high place
in the front rank of American artists.
