RINK CARNIVAL AND BALL AT CAMBRIDGE.

—, .*. ,—- The annual carnival in connection with the Cambridge Kink was held on Wednesday evening, and proved a great success. The attendance was large and many of the fancy dresses were very pretty. We counted thirty attired m fancy (Jress at the rink and ball of which the following is a list : Mary Oueen of Scots, Miss Alice Kerr ; Five O'clock Tea, Mi-* D.ivies ; Night, Mrs C. W. Arnold ; Black Diamonds, Miss Lucy Kerr ; Birdcage, Miss Annie Giles ; French Flower Girl, Miss Griffiths ; Shepherdess, Miss Katie Kerr, .Teanie "Deans, Miss Glenny ; Ivy, Miss Core; ran ; Queen of Roses, Miss 'Campbell ; Fairy ; Miss Foreshaw ; Bohemian Girl, M_iss MeKornon ; Dancing Girl, Miss Katie Craig ; Swiss Milk Maid, Miss Stewart ; Nun, Miss Kerr ; Schoolgirl, Miss Sharp ; Waitress, Miss Martha Sharp ; Tub Waikato Turns, Mr F. W. Buckland ; Chamber's Flour, (Lion Brand), Mr P. Hester ; Irishman, Mr F. Aimer ; Advertising Sheet, MrF. Madigan ; Sailor, Mr Horace Stewart ; Clown, Mr Ernest Kneebo ; Highlander, Mr J. Bell ; Earl of Leicester, Mr Harry Stewart ; Footballer, Mr Brockelsby ; H-ir-vester, Mr Gen. Clark ; Marine, Mr W. Pearce. We are not rash enough to attoinpt to name the belle :>f the ball, but we may mention several of the dresses that appeared to find most favour with the onlookers. At the rink Birdcage, Five O'clock Tea, and Night- were great favourites, but at the ball Queen of Scots was undoubtedly the best fancy dress, and tho character exactly suited the wearers. Among the gentlemen, Mr J. Bell as a Higlilanduian, took the palm, but Mes-rs Buckland as Waikato Tihks, and Mr Hester as Chamber's Flour were also very good. Mr 11. Stewait caused considerable f,m .it the rink as a New Chum on Skates ami the clowns also helped to keep the fun going. Dancing was commenced soon after 10 P.m., and was kept up with spirit till 3.30 a.m. Refreshments, were provided by Mis Popple, and gave every satisfaction.
