I gifted violinist, says that Miss Van
Wagner baa technique that knows no
limitation. All who heard this gifted

ABOUT THE CARNIVAL
People from the Adjoining Towns
and Country Began Arriving
Yesterday Morning.
THIS IS THE - ELKS' DAY.
i!
Parade To-nlrbt at 9 O'clock Will Be
Grotesque and Interesting Pree At- ;
tractions Are All Good Street
Gambling Stands Closed.'
The third day of the Carnival yes
terday was not one whit behind its two
distinguished predecessors both as to
crowds in attendance and weather
conditions. The people from adjoin
ing towns and country were in
great evidence, and that's really for
whom the . Carnival was de
signed. The city folks, too, had lost
none of their fair interest, and around
almost every booth were gathered
anxious throngs. The festive spirit
pervades the entire atmosphere, and
although business may not be so good
m tne store and office, the people are
being attracted to the citv and of
; course business will follow.
Two extra trains came ' in yesterday
from over the. Seaboard Air Line and
Wilmington and . Newbern railroads,
and the steamer Wilmington also
brought up a crowd from Southport.
The extra trains will bring in
larger crowds to-day, and the Carnival
is then expected to reach the zenith
of its glory. The free attractions are
good and a majority of the paid shows
sppear to be well worth the admission
price charged. Yesterday the "small
horse and man" show moved up from
Front and Grace streets to Front and
Market.- Numerous other small s ide
line attractions began to spring up all
along the carnival district. The red
lemonade men, the silver and gold
wire workers, the negro behind the
canvas, the cane racks, the balloon
venders, the confetti dealers and the
lunch counter men are all here and
doing fairly good business.
Two stands where the "eavelope
men" gave "ten, twenty and thirty"
were suspressed by Mayor Waddell
and Chief Furlong early in the after
noon. It savored too much of gam
bling and the proprietors had to "shut
up shop."
The "country store" during the
three days of the carnival has enjoy
ed a patronage of nearly $400. Value
received is given for every
chance purchased as all the merchan
dise was donated and' of course may
be sold with great profit "regardless of
cost or consequences." Mr. James EL
Cowan is in charge assisted by Mr.
John W. Bloome.
The Elks, the originators of the Fair,
have thrown their handsome Temple
on North Front street wide open to
the public during the week. The par
lors, drawing rooms and other depart
ments of the building are handsomely
decora tea and visitors are received
with the utmost cordiality.
The free shows in various sections
of the Carnival district are heralded by
music from Hollowbush's Cornet Band
and all of them entertain and instruct.
Notable among them for grace and
prehensile agility is Mrs. Murphy, the
monkey balloonist," who grasps the
parachute, and seems the higher she
goes the more to enjoy the rarity of
the atmosphere, until at the dizzy al
titude of 8,000 feet above the world,
she cuts loose and descends in the same
graceful manner in which she arose
from Mother Earth.
Another feature that never fails to
please is the "Hiway Family of Japa
nese Acrobats" in posturing acts, and
Wu Ming, the daring, who does a
stride for life on a 600-foot wire.
A remarkable sight, Mile Orocas, in
in serial work, the famous high diver,
"Speedy," diving 60 feet into a small
tank of water, and "Grant," the elec
trical wonder, riding on a bicycle at
arreat height on a live wire with bike
and wire illuminated.
To-day Is Elks' Day. '
To-day has been given over to mem
bers of B. P. O. E.. as their own and
the Wilmington Elks have deter
mined to make the season set apart for
them a "Bed Letter Day" in the Car
nival, giving the visitors an opportu
nity of viewing what will be interest
ing and amazing in originality and
variety. In the forenoon of the day
visiting Elks will be entertained by
the local brotherhood "around about
in spots," as the programme uniquely
announces it To-night at 9 o'clock
members' of the order will
s-ive a grotesque parade that will
surpass anything yet seen dur
ing the week. One hundred and fifty
fancy costumes have been received
from Washington, D. C, and will be
worn in the parade. They are grotes
que and will furnish amusement for
all who gather along the streets to wit
ness it. The procession will be head
ed by a platoon of police and Hollow-
bush's Band. The 150 Elks in the city
will follow, "no one known from an
other." All Elks are requested to
meet at the Temple at 8 o'clock to
night to prepare for the pageant. The
line of march will be down Front to
Nun street; to Third ; to Market,
to Second and again to Front street
and to the Temple. .
The regular ghost parade of the Elks
will be on Friday morning at 12:01
o'clock A. M. Messrs. "Jack" Bella
my and T. W. Davis, of the Amuse
ment committee, are at work on the
parade feature and all desired infor
mation may be gained by applying to
either of them.
Elks are requested to . meet at the
Temple at 11 :80 o'clock with all para
phernalia for the ghost parade. It will
star t promptly at 13:01 A. M. and the
line of march will .be to Dock street
and-return. . The parade will be weird
and well worth the seeing.
Edison's Moving Pictures.
The Edison Moving Pictures at cor
ner of Front and Dock streets, xis one.
of the best of its character ever seen'
in Wilmington. The very latest pic
tures of the famous Wizard are repnr-
duced here.
During the visit of the late Presi
dent to the Pan-American Exposition
the Edison Company had operators at
work taking pictures of his last life
scenes. The first picture snows tne
President reviewing the troops
during his , visit . and a most
striking likeness is presented as he
salutes the troops as they. pass. The
second picture shows the introduction
of the President to the people by
President Milburn, of the Exposition,
and tbe delivery of his last speech to
his countrymen. This picture is con
sidered one of the best ever taken by
the Edison Company. The last pic
ture of this series shows the wonder
ful funeral cortege at Buffalo and. is
considered a masterpiece of the mov
ing picture business, showing in per
fect detail the entire procession as it
passed from the house of President
Milburn to the depot at Buffalo.
In addition to the above is given a
beautiful colored presentation of the
famous fairy tale of Cinderilla.
Taken as a whole the entertainment is
one that should not be missed.
Notes of the Carnival.
J. EL Rehder & Co. have one of the
prettiest booths in the Carnival dis
trict. It is handsomely decorated,
beautifully lighted at night, and loca
ted in front of the postoffice building
north of the Ferris wheel. Friends of
the big Department Store are request
ed to call at the booth and rest while
traversing through the fair.
The best of order still prevails on
the street, notwithstanding the large
crowds. Extra policemen are on duty
at all times and during the night there
is a policeman on each block down
town, v
All the shows close at 11 o'clock
each night A number of the stands
conducted for individual profit re
main open until midnight.
Kincaid, the electrician of the
shows, who assaulted his treasurer
Tuesday, was arraigned in Justice
Fowler's court yesterday. He prom
ised to leave the city and boarded the
afternoon W., C. & A. train for
Charleston.
Mr. F. C. Huffman, the fair pro
moter, whom the boys like to call
Mr. Bostock," left yesterday after
noon for Mobile, Ala., to organize a
fair there. Mr. Huffman is a clever
gentleman and made many friends
here, who will be delighted to have
him come this way again.
The Bostock aggregation will leave
Sunday for Macon, Ga.; thence to
Canton, Miss., and to Mobile, Ala.
The Daughters of the Confederacy
are serving refreshments in the store
on Market street, next to the store of
Mr. N. F. Parker, the furniture mant
They respectfully ask their friends to
call. The proceeds go to the enter
tainment of tbe National Convention,
U. D. C, in Wilmingtoa next month.
