Paris, March 22.-Today, for the
time being, Paris threw aside her
garb of sackcloth and gave herself up
to the pleasures of mi-careme, the
great carnival which brightens the
middle of the period of fasting and
prayer In the French capital From
early morning the boulevards were
crowded with gay maskers and merry
makers bent upon getting their fill of
the pleasures of the occasion. The
masked balls concluding the festivi-
ties tonight will be of more than or
binary splendor and brilliance. The
toilets seen at these, however, are no
more magnificent than some of those
which appeared in the street pageant
earlier in the day. Many of the
beauties on the floats were costumed
and jeweled by the most fashionable
tradespeople.
Originally entirely a festival of the
lower people, the celebration of mi
eareme has come to be quite fash
ionable hobby. The street pageant.
which takes hours to pass along the
boulevards, is still made up of the
lower classes, but rubbing elbows
with pretty laundresses, flower max
ers, butchers, bakers and what not |
safe in her incognito of mask and |
domino, the lady of quality oftentimes
seeks jollity and adventure.
The immense street crowds are
very good-natured on these occasions,
so that, properly escorted, the lady of
the highest degree may fear no dan
ger At a certain hour the law forces
everybody to unmask, and when this
strikes. Cinderella from the ball, the
great dame who has been playing at
canaille fits to the safety of her own
