FIRE WORKS TONIGHT

The Carnival Continues to be Visited by a Large Crowd.

The most interesting feature of the carnival tonight will be a fire-works display beginning at the conclusion of the free act performances at 9 o’clock.  Those who attended the carnival Tuesday night when the first fire-works display was held were very much pleased at the splendid exhibition and doubtless many of them will avail themselves of another opportunity.

The crowd in the grounds last night was somewhat smaller than the night before though the gate admissions showed an attendance of nearly 2,000 which is much larger than expected.  The carnival people say Wednesday is usually dull for carnivals.
