Savannah will do herself proud this
week
For six days the carnival will be on
in full blast, and when Saturday night
comes the city will have been treated
to a round of gayety which will require
two nights to sleep off
Early this afternoon two special
trains will arrive, carrying the stadium
and Pike attractions from Jacksonville,
together with more than 200 people
who are connected with the shows. Be
sides these. there were here yesterday
some forty people with three attrac-
tions, but nothing was done except to
advertise them on the streets and by
means of cards.
During the greater part of the morn
ing, and until late tonight, the mana
gers will be at the grounds, directing
the preparations and looking after the
details.
Busy Scenes To-day.
From the moment the attractions be-
gin to arrive until late at night there
will be busy scenes in and about the
carnival grounds. A small army of
workmen will be busily engaged in
putting up the shows, both inside the
stadium and on the Pike. Small boys
will be on hand to carry water to the
elephant and otherwise add to the gem
eral confusion.
With the shows will come Manager
Toube, who has been engaged by the
Carnival Company to look after the
amusement features. He will directly
superintend the laying out of the
spaces for the various shows and will
urge forward the work with all speed.
With the greater part of tomorrow
available, there will be no difficulty
in getting everything in shape before
the opening of the carnival at s
O'Clock.

Heavy Railroad Travel.
In anticipation of the heavy travel
during carnival week, the railroads are
making extra preparations. The Sea-
board has placed in service a number
of extra passenger coaches for its day
trains. Connecting roads have noti-
fled the Seaboard Of proposed excur-
sons, and have promised large crowds
from points off the Seaboard,
The Atlantic Coast Line will to-day
move it's extra passenger equipment
used in the Jacksonville district last
week, to territory contiguous to Sa-
vannah. The Central will supply all
needed equipment, as will also the
Southern.
From reports received by the carni-
val management, from different roads
and agents, there is every indication
that a large number of people from
points within $50 miles of Savannah
are coming to the big show.
Another thing which will operate
greatly to the advantage of the Savan-
nah carnival is the fact that the cotton
raisers have just marketed their CROP
and are ready for diversion. This will
also apply to the pickers and others
who profit by the handling of the sta
pie.
