THE CARNIVAL q
Opens For Business on the comstock

To-day.
The much talked of and ANTICIPATED
Carnival on the Comstock opens for
the people of Nevada and any others
who may wish good time, today. By
the time the Appeal is distributed the
people on the hill and their visitors
will be enjoying the pleasures Of the
first Carnival given, by the people OF
Virginia City. and it bids fair to be
the most successful affair ever given in
the State. < f,.@#

the midway people and needless to
remark a few shell game men. but
they go along with every carnival and
it would be poor show without q few
of these gentry to keep up appearan-
ces. If man isn't old enough by this
time he should surely be worked by a
shell game.
From word that came down from
the hill yesterday the people could
hardly wait for the arrival of the reg
ulation hour, to open the ball, and
number of them had already COM
menced to celebrate. The town is
galy decorated from one end to the
other and the electric display will
make every other attempt in the State
look like thirty cents.
The railroad has made special rates
to all who wish to attend, and the schd
ule for the trains can be found in an
other column A number of Carson
ties who have concessions departed for
the scene of activity yesterday. They
will be found along the line of con-
cessions with a gentle spiel for pat
ronage. AS near as can be learned
there will be nearly double the am.
cunt of shows on the Comstack than
visited Carson and Reno, which gives
the people chance to see evrything
from a side show to Little Egypt.
