The Boys’ Rand at the Cham‘pion Wine—Serenades Siven. « Visitors Depart. The last day of the ste carnival was greatly enjoyed by everybody. Every detail of the program arranged was so nicely carried out that from early morning-until: Jate at night there was entertainment for both young and old. The parade was. very good, and the new features presented were very pleasing to the crowds that lined the ‘streets: Miss Mamie Purcell, the Carnival Queen, and her Maide of Honor, brought forth == admiration on every side. After the parade the shew company ‘give a very creditable performance in theie wagon at the corner of Broad and Pine streets. At one o’lock they entertained the people at the corner of Pine and Oommercial streets. The jokes were of a new brand and the dancing and singing could uot -but please the most exacting. : There were foot races of all kinds on both Broad and Commercial streets. The three-legged race created much merriment. The tugs-of-war were hotly contested and the strong men pulled for all they were worth. This sport was very much enjoyed by the onlookers. During the afternoon the Stockton Boys’ Band played a namber of lively airs on Commercial street, near Pine. The basket-ball game yesterday afternoon was a very spirited event, and drew a large crowd. Ihe Auburn Ladies’ jBand played sweet music on the grounds and the game was much enjoyed by everybody. The score stood 24 to 24, and the money was divided between the two teams. The afternoon committee hired two of Baker’s ’busses and the Stockton Boys’ Band was conveyed to the Champion mine about 4. o’clock yesterday afternoon. Superintendent Fred Zeitler, that prince of good fellows, entertained the young musicians and several ‘Stockton visitors in his inimitable manner. The band boys played a few tunes at the mine and several of the visitors were taken under ground on a tour of inspection. One of the most exciting and pleasing events of the celebration took place late yesterday afternoon when representatives from Nevada Hose Co. and Pennsylvania Engine Co. met .at the Plaza and had a water fight. The contest was a great sight. Great excitement prevailed, and cheer after cheer rent the air. Still the sturdy fire fighters fought on for supremacy. Many among the large crowd présent had never seen a water fight and they took g-eat interest in it. After quite awhile of “give and take’’ on each ‘side, the contest was declared a draw. The following comprised the teams: J. Penrose, D. Sandow, F. Marsh, Pennsylvania Oo.; Nick Sandow, L. Schmeder, T. Sandow, Hose Co. No, 1. Jo V. Bell, who formerly resided at Stockton and who has taken an active part in the big carnival, was serenaded at the National Hotel last evening by the Boys’ Band and the Nevada Oity Band. The two bands played. jointly on the balcony and an immense crowd gathered: and lustily cheered as tune after tune was played in perfeg time and harmony. Later the Morning Uniop, was serenaded. The bands also marshed to the New Union Hotel and played some lively airs. Fred E. Brown was then tendered a serenade in front of the TRansonipr building and three rousing cheers were given for this paper. The free dance at Armory Hall was greatly enjoyed by an immense crowd. Ladis Walling acted as floor director, and he was ably assisted[i{by a corps of good managers. Wild’s full orchestra discoursed excellent music, and ‘the spacious hall presentéd a merry scene. The grand march was led by Grand Marshal Charies L. Harris and Miss Mamie Purcell, the—very: wrens Queen _of the Carnival. : CARNIVAL NOTES. Laurel Parlow, N. D. G.

“About two months after my arrival I went te a:native shoemaker’s one day, ordered a pair of English riding boots, and, as I had been used to wearIng ready made footgear, . mentioned, incidentally, that my number’ was 8\4. The shoemaker gravely made a note of the fact and promised to send around the boots as soon as they—were—done_ Several weeks elapsed, when, one morning, a porter came staggering into the office almost buried under an énormous load of English top beots. To be exact, he had 17.

He shrugged his shoulders. ‘That was not for me to inquire,’ he said. ; “] realized that the fatal reputation for eccentricity which Americans enjoy the world over was partly responsible for the muddle. Still it was an inexcusably stupid blunder, and; after yainly arguing for ao hotr, I put him on notice that I would only accept one pair. When I returned, I sent back the other 15 and considered. the Incident closed. I heard no more about it, In fact, until exactly six months later, when I received a bill for 8% pairs of riding boots at $15 each—total, $127.50 gold—and a polite notification that 714 pairs awal my pleasure at the shop. “That made me furious. I sent the man my check for $15 and told his messenger -to sue me and be hanged. But he didn’t sue me. ._They have a much more effective method down there. “Within a week every ‘tradesman with whom I did business advised me courteously that he had closed my account-—-meaning. that my future custom was not desired. . Moreover, the foreign colony all gave me the cold shoulder, and when I dropped in at the club the frost was something awful. “at last I sent for a particular friend. ‘Look here,’ 1 said, ‘I want you to tell me frankly why I am getting this taboo. ‘Because you -haven’t paid for your boots,’ he replied. ‘But this is monstrous!’ said I, ‘You know very well that 1 mever ordered 8% pairs of boots. ‘Of course not,’ said he, ‘but you'd best pay for ’em all the same. It ruins a man here,’ he went on to explain, ‘if he allows any bill to pass set: tlement day. No explanation is permitted, and everybody joins in cutting him. It seems hard, but we have to do it to sustain this credit system. If we didn’t, we'd all be sindiaia by bad ac‘counts.’ “] groaned in spirit, but I sent the shoemaker $112.50 and: told bim to let me have the rest of my boots. 1 was so mad 1 could. have worn out the whole 17 on his anatomy, but I preserved my outward calm and was promptly reinstated socially and financially throughout the town. Later on I used severt-pairs of boots as Christmas presents to friends and gave the one odd one to a one legged beggar on: the plaza.”"—New Orleans TimesDemocrat. Unappreciated Efforts.
