CARNIVAL CROWD
GROWING NIGHTLY
EVERYBODY WANTS TO SEE FUN
Plenty to See and Heai-Baby Incu.
batoPs Were the Greatest
Attraction Last Night.

The exhibition of BLACK Art" in
the Temple of Art on the carnival
grounds is very good. The tricks
are cleverly arranged and carefully
executed.
Although it is very easy to conjec-
ture how these tricks might be per-
formed it is very hard to see how,
and when things begin to move
around and follow the magician, the
flesh becomes creepy in spite of ones
self.
The illustrated song, "I'll be with
You When the Roses Bloom Again.,
was very we'll rendered At any time
it is trying to sing in public, but
when a strong brass band is going
full blast within a few feet, as was
the case Tuesday evening, the task
is infinitely increased.
The Red Dome performance con-
sisted of singing, dancing and orient
al muscle dancing. The work of the
troupe vas good all through and the
oriental part was absolutely free
from Objectionable features.
The old fashioned circus was
great success and everyone went
away satisfied Every feature was
we'll presented with that finished eff
feet that distinguishes the profess
sional from the amateur. Madam
Wanda's dogs are wonderful in their
intelligence.
The SINH Letta Troupe of six aero
bats under the management of Nat
Refs arrived in Nelson, B. c. We'd
nesday morning in time to fill their
engagement, although it took $295
of Mr.. REFS hard cash to get them
there. The troupe, on it's way from
Chicago, arrived at Spokane at
1880 P. NJ, five hours late, their
train having left at GAO P. NJ. Mr..
Parker, Mr. REFS assistant manager,
wired here that the only way to be
on time for the engagement at Mel
son, B. c. was to take special train.
Maxine, the high diving dog at
the Carnival, is perhaps the most
wonderful and daring little animal
in the world. A jump of y feet on
to small net is enough to shake the
courage of the bravest, yet this little
dog does this very thing evening
after evening and apparently enjoys
the thrilling flight through the air.
The worlds record for high dive
was thirty-five feet before Maxine
entered the field, last season he was
diving fifty feet, this year, not be-
cause any other dog was approaching
his record, but just because he could,
Maxine is diving from the perilous
height of seventy-two feet.
This could be done for $295. Mr..
Refs wired back, make all arrange
ments and take special"
No one who attended the carnival
last night Intentionally overlooked
the baby incubators. They were the
greatest attraction for everybody. In
shape the incubators resmble small
cracker boxes with glass fronts. In
these the little babies repose on soft
pillows.
The air of the incubators Is kept
at uniform temperature by means
of an automatic contrivance, and
fresh air is introduced through a
large pipe. The air is purified by
passing through an antiseptic fluid,
and then through cotton. and it is
warmed before it is permitted to
pass into the infants apartment. The
most important consideration for a
child prematurely born is tempera-
ture. Consequently, the tempera-
ture of the incubator is kept uniform
and the automatic contrivance used
for this is so perfectly regulated that
the temperature is always correct.
Moreover, a thermostat at the front
of the incubator is constant guide
as to the thermal condition. Stats
tics show that of premature or weak
ly born infants. under ordinary con-
ditions. only Is per cent live; by
means of the incubator IS per cent
are saved. These artificial mothers,
the incubators. are wonderful bits OF
mechanism, invented by Drs. NJ. A.
Couney and s. Schenkein, who have
