The Skating Kirik
There were not a great many present
last night at the Opera House at the
opening of the Skating Rink there by
Mr. C. D. Willson. There were nu
merous attrac'ions elsewhere last night
and this fact will probably account lor
the rather small house. There were
about twenty-five skaters on the Door,
among whom were several ladies, and'
a tone orchestra lent its inspiring strains
to the occasion.
Notwithstanding the rather inaus
picious opening we thiak that Mr
Willscn's plan till succeed admirably!
Thoparquette of the Opera House has
been boarded over carefully with
lected and seasoned plank and it is
flush from the lobby doors lo the foot
of the stage, where a gentle and a haid-
iy perceptible incline is met. The sta-e
is all therefore open with tbe exception
of a clinrKf or...,, v l . . i

building last night and the scene was a
very pleasant one to look upon.
