A SUCCESSFUL CARNIVAL.


An Astonishing Array of Morristown
Talent Delights Large Audience.
The business mems carnival, given
under the auspices Of the Young Men 3
Christian Association last Friday was
a pronounced success. Much had been
anticipated when it was announced
that staid matrons and versatile
girls were to combine with city faith
ers, county officials, dignified men and
bashful boys in carnival fun-mak-
ing. but the performance may safely
be said to have exceeded all expecta-
lions. Tt was surprising the variety
of talent that was displayed in the va
rious numbers on the program, and
the general opinion is that it would be
a wise move on the part of the Asso-
citation to provide something of the
kind once or twice year as a means
Of promoting sociability and bringing
the young people of the town together.
Following is the program as rendered,
with performers and houses repre-
sented:
