Last night, the second, of the car
nival now being held on the City
Hotel lot under the auspices of the
Independent Company of Volunteer
Iiremen of the city, witnessed an even
greater crowd than that which at
tended the opening night on Saturday.
And the crowds are good natured ones
too. filled with the spirit character
istic of carnival affairs.
The dancing pavilion seems to be
the biggest drawing card for the
young folks, and it was crowded at
every number last night. All of the
other stands where one might try his
luck, also did a thriving business
from early eve until late in the night.
Happy were those in whose path
fate threw an element of luck to
receive a baby doll to basket OF
fruit, or a fancy article, or some
thing in the way of aluminium ware
for the kitchen.

those who have tried their keenness
of sight. or accuracy in throwing a
