LAST NIGHT WAS
CEkTAILY A WARM ONE

Carson was certainly going some
yesterday. 1t went about the Limit last
-l4Sht- 1he Capitol square was
oIale of electro Lights ald when the
queen and her retinde entered tht
.,lace rang with cheers.
Will u. Mackey was some kind of
high plenoporentiary and wore par
Jle togs and skin tights He was
/ learly as beautiful as the Queen. NO
man was ever so beautiful in this
,~n before.
He made speech to the mob and
t was voted as about the right thing
md, the Maids of honor who were
he sweetest things ever, pelted her
.acious majesty with confetti.
Then the crowd surged over to the
lancing pavilion and things began to
-dm. Confetti was at a premium
md everybody was throwing it. The
,lOTm center was on the northwest
corner of the square and it was there
| II drifts. Girls grabbed men from
/ behind by the collar and poured it
! lown their neckS. A number of ladies'
went after all the men who had
/ leather busters. They would grab a
man bodily and throw him to the
! ground with half Nelson or cross
puttock and then sit down on HIM
and take the feathers
| Ladies dressed as men went about
making love to their acQuant anceS
and having all kinds of fun.
The erry-goround was finally TAX
en- up almost entirely by the Indians
! they would go there in the morning
and get on horse and stay there all
day paying their niciles whenever
the revenue collector came round.
They are about the gamest spenders
of the carnival, they simply went to
the bottom of their pile, and walked
home.
One white woman was thrown off
one of the covorting wooden horses
and slightly injured. It was found
that the horse had taken too much
condition power.
Editor Booth Of TonOpah was round
this morning gathering up the con.
fetti to take home and plant. He told
an Appeal reporter that he saw no
reason why confetti could not be rails
ed in Nevada as well as in Italy and
the money kept at home. He says
that Nye county in the next few years
can raise all the confetti needed in
/, this state.
DO you know" remarked the. sage
of TOnopah what the definition OF Q
pile of BRICKS is" We gave it up ana
, he answered. Irish. confetti winch
: was rather good considering Booth :
condition at that time.
The autos had their innings. They
simply trailed firecrackers in long
? lunches behind their cars and kept
: them going while they filled the all
5 with Roman candle balls, yelling lik,
Indians meanwhile.
f This made a hot display of patriot
| ism.
J The burlesques of the floats were
/ immence and heartily cheered. TIL,
:. men who dressed up to represent The
Senioretas on horseback made no en-,
of sport.
A pickpocket was caught in tn,
crowd and an alarm raised. Tw
men gave chase and the crowd watch

= the corner that was the last o. II
; The three were probably in cahOots
II At least that is the way they size
it up.
There was no accidents to speak o
Some men snored off their drunke
stuper on the Capitol grass and som
Z slept on the benches all night. We
, isn't that the place for the taxpayers
OF course.
There was lots OF carnival fiirtin

U marie men into TAX ing them OF

Id along. The Eagles ran the roos
e that night and on all sides was hear
'e the praises of the way they manage
the affair.
The Midway might have been in
