The Weekly Gazette. FIRST DAY OF CARNIVAL (continued from page 1) CROWDS THRONG MIDWAY Thousands Attend Series of High-Class Attractions Among the free acts that are making a big hit inside the canvas enclosure, Madame Schell probably comes first, and thousands have already seen her handle the two huge Nubian lions with a simple word of command. Two free exhibitions will be given daily by Madame Schell and her lions—5:30 and 10:30 p.m. Armed with nothing but a small whip, wearing a fancy costume, she enters their den every afternoon at 5:30 and every night at 10:30, remaining there fully 15 minutes, making the "big kittens" turn somersaults, leap about, stand upon their hindlegs jump hurdles and other difficult evolutions. The beasts seem mortally afraid of her. Madame Schell has become a prime favorite at once. She likes Anaheim and its Germans; for she is a Teuton herself; and Anaheim likes her not only for this reason but because of her remarkable nerve and daring. The "slide for life," down the cable of the captive balloon, executed by the Stevens brothers, is also attracting considerable attention, while nightly displays of fireworks are set off from the balloon 2500 feet in the air that can be seen for miles around. had been handed a Canadian ten-cent piece. At the office it was not noticed, and the practically useless silver piece was pocketed with the rest of the change. It eventually came into the possession of Lee Hamilton, press agent of the company. He didn't notice it, either, until he got into Los Angeles. He tried to buy a cigar, and the dime was turned back as spurious. Next he tried for an ice cream soda with it. Same result. Finally, even a liquid refreshment emporium turned it down, and it looks as though he will have a pocket-piece as long as he remains in this part of the country. He hasn't yet mustered up courage enough to try and pass it in Anaheim. SCHOOLS CLOSED FOR WEEK Board of Education Lets Youngsters Take In Carnival Members of the carnival boosters' committee and the board of education held a conference Monday afternoon that resulted in the schools being closed Tuesday night, not to reopen until Monday morning, in order that the youngsters might enjoy the carnival to the utmost, which they are certainly doing. When the announcement was made by the various teachers in both the high and graded schools Tuesday just before closing time, the news was received with rounds of applause by the older scholars, and by unrestrained shouts from the smaller ones. The matter was kept quiet until the last thing, for fear an earlier announcement would have the effect of driv- PRIZES AWARDED FIRST DAY Miss Susan Beebe Wins First Automobile Display Following is the list of awards for the parade Week.

She likes Anaheim and its Germans for she is a Teuton herself; and Anaheim likes her not only for this reason but because of her remarkable nerve and daring. The "slide for life," down the cable of the captive balloon, executed by the Stevens brothers, is also attracting considerable attention, while nightly displays of fireworks are set off from the balloon 2500 feet in the air that can be seen for miles around. Sunday the balloon men announce a double parachute drop and a grand cut-away of the balloon, and will take two or three passengers, if anyone in Anaheim is possessed of nerve enough to go along. "Beautiful Birdland" containing hundreds of rare specimens, is also a free attraction of merit, while the merry-go-round is proving the usual source of enjoyment to the youngsters. The thousands of visitors that are thronging Anaheim attracted by the big carnival, now in the height of its glory; find one of their greatest delights in the attraction on the midway inside the enclosure at Center and Lemon streets. There are so many good attractions that the public is taking no chances, but seeing them all, and so far nothing but approbation has greeted the efforts of the performers. One of the principal attractions is the Kaufman-Beckwith jungle zoo, with its 200 or more rare birds and animals, including Teddy, the baby orang-outang, the horned cassowary and "Old Satan," the giant stub-tailed python. In the Oriental vaudeville show La Belle Cairo introduces the eastern classic dances made famous by Ruth St. Denis, in a manner that brings forth absolutely nothing to offend. Popular songs, sung by pretty girls, and poses plastique are also on the program, while "Electricia" performs marvelous stunts with the "juice," even to sitting in an electric chair with the current turned on. Warwick and his "house of mystery" furnish demonstrations of slipping out of hand-cuffs and straightjackets, also several illusions, including the Hindu box mystery. Lunette files through space and performs other seemingly impossible feats right in full view of the audience, while the Society Minstrels capably entertain those fond of that kind of amusement. Among the novelties offered are Alice, the strangest girl on earth, one of the real midway mysteries; the youngsters might enjoy the carnival to the utmost, which they are certainly doing. When the announcement was made by the various teachers in both the high and graded schools Tuesday just before closing time, the news was received with rounds of applause by the older scholars, and by unrestrained shouts from the smaller ones. The matter was kept quiet until the last thing, for fear an earlier announcement would have the effect of driving the children carnival-crazy, and that all thought of work for the remainder of the day would be abandoned. This is about the first time in Southern California that scholars have been given a week off to take in a carnival, though a holiday when a circus strikes town is not uncommon. ORANGE IS COMING A delegation of 200 citizens of Orange in fifty decorated autos will arrive in Anaheim on Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock, headed by the Orange band. They will take part in the festivities of the afternoon. PRIZE-WINNING POTATOES Frank Shanley Forwards Consignment from Minnesota for Seed Frank Shanley has sent to Herman Dickel by express a box of prize-winning Minnesota potatoes, which are now on exhibition at the latter's store. Mr. Shanley is touring the east, and came across the spuds at a county fair. He purchased a box of them, paid $8.80 expression, and dispatched them to this city. In a letter to Mr. Dickel he says: White Bear, Minn., Sept. 18, '11. Dear Mr. Dickel:—I send to you today 1 box of seed potatoes, express prepared, which I think may help our potato growers to a new variety of spuds. These have just taken the first prize at Bruno, Pine Co., Minn. J. C. Fulton and Mr. Murray and myself were touring through the country for a week and happened to pass through Bruno, where they had their county fair, and I must say I never saw potatoes in all my days as good as these, and knowing the trouble our farmers have in getting a good variety, I thought I would buy the prize winners. The Wells, Fargo Express Co. just phoned me that the cost of expressage would be $8.80, but if it will help our friends to a Germania I A splendid every day brands of Liquors gars for tiring thie Beer alw tap.

Heitsh New and Second Hand Store just opened Warwick and his "house of mystery" furnish demonstrations of slipping out of hand-cuffs and straightjackets, also several illusions, including the Hindu box mystery. Lunette files through space and performs other seemingly impossible feats right in full view of the audience, while the Society Minstrels capably entertain those fond of that kind of amusement. Among the novelties offered are Alice, the strangest girl on earth, one of the real midway mysteries; the deep sea monsters, containing a giant octopus, alive; the Chinese opium den, an expose of how the Orientals smoke opium; with the outfits—bunks, in fact, everything but real "hop", and including a number of Chinese vaudeville acts. Added to this are more than 20 concerts, each indulging in leather-lunged efforts to dispose of his warraea. Each of the paid attractions furnishes its own free acts in front of the theaters every few minutes, while the crowds stand for hours around the African Dip and Sappho Tip, to watch the negro take an involuntary plunge and the other to turn a somersault when someone happens to be lucky enough to hit the bull's eye that loosens the fastenings of their seats. CARNIVAL COMPANY STUNG Let Somebody Slip Over Canadian Dime at Pomona Did anybody ever hear of a traveling amusement organization getting stung? Well, that's what happened to the California Carnival company, and the sum—ten cents—makes it all the more laughable. Up in Pomona, where the company was two weeks ago, someone "put one over" on the ticket seller at one of the shows where the admission was a dime. In the hustle and bustle the seller didn't notice that he J. C. Fulton and Mr. Murray and myself were touring through the country for a week and happened to pass through Bruno, where they had their county fair, and I must say I never saw potatoes in all my days as good as these, and knowing the trouble our farmers have in getting a good variety, I thought I would buy the prize winners. The Wells, Fargo Express Co. just phoned me that the cost of expressage would be $8.80, but if it will help our friends to a better variety I will be amply paid for the cost of the spuds and expressage. There are three varieties. I would suggest they be named the Anaheim Beauties for the white ones, and the Anaheim Peach Blows for the blue ones. And if you will notice, there are three that are broad and flat, and are called here the Purbank. They are certainly an improvement on our Burbanks in California for shape and fine skin. Now, my dear friend, I would like if you would make a nice display in your window, and have Mr. Kuchel and Mr. Valjean have a notice printed in their papers calling attention of potato growers to call and see them, and I would suggest after a few weeks' display in your store that you would give a few to Mr. Betz, my neighbor, Mr. Kennedy of Clair, and my old friend, the melon man, Mr. Rue. Then you can give the balance to your friends. We have had terrible rains and lightning storms for about three weeks, but we have been on the road most of the time in Fulton's $6000-Pierce Arrow. Yours truly, F. SHANLEY. Miss L. L. Ingraham and mother have returned to their home in Fullerton after a two months tour of the East. While away they visited many places of interest, among them being The Thousand Islands, Montreal, Quebec, and the Great Lakes.
