From n stuff correspondent : Nellgh Is this week demonslrntlng what can be done by n town when the people net In harmony , nil Intent upon the nccompllnhmont of one common purpose. The carnival which cloHCH there today Is the great est success of anything of the kind Hint him ever been attempted by n small town In Nebraska.

When n public meeting wan hold nnme tlmo ngo nnd It WIIH decided to hold n car nival , everyone wont to work to mnkn It n success , nnd they have succeeded beyond their utmost oxpectntlons. There WIIH not n single Individual In the town to hold back , not n croaker , not n kicker , lloforo the llrst day of the carnival S.fiOO tickets to the park had been sold nnd every Item of ex pense bud been provided for.

Kv- ery Incoming train brought extra conches loaded with people nnd from early In the morning until after noon the roads In all directions leading Into Nellgh wt-.ro covered with teams nil pointed toward the carnival. And Nu- llgh had provided attractions worth the while of a visit. The decorations of the streets and business houses arc most beautiful. Hrlght colored streamers are draped across the streets In canopy style , and every business house displays a generous amount of bunting , Intertwined with national colors nnd myriads of electric lights. There nre free shows gnloro on the streets , nnd If the visitor Is not sur feited by these there nro a grcnt num ber of concessionaires who offer at tractions of more or less merit * One feature of the carnival Is es pecially worthy of note.
