ATRIP TO CAPE BRETON

With the Maritime Press Association,

NOTES Bi THE WAY. New Giasgow----lts Views, In- dustries and Prosperity.

To the landsman crossing the Strait which separates our ‘‘Giem of the Northern Sea’ from the great continent which it adorns—as an emerald adorns the neck of a lady—*‘everything lies in circumstance.” if the breezes blows and the sea is high, the passage is begun in dread and continued in misery but when—as when we crossed —there is not wind enough to blow away the haze which has gathered and hangs lazily upon thes landscapes that loom on either shore, it is quite delightful to be on board one of our trim steamers, under the charge of one of our **Cameron men,”

The pleasure of the trip is, of course, greatly enhanced when one meets com- panions who have travelled, and who can tell good stories or call to mind incidents of personal or historic incident. One of these came over to Pictou with us. Ap incident

man, which he related, may be interesting to at ieast to one reader of THE EXAMINER. He said that Mr. Wightman had told bim that after he (Wightman) came to the Island, and while still a young man, 4e en- gaged in fishing, and soon learned perfectly the navigation of the coast. At that time the British Government had soldiers sta- tioned at Quebec, Kingston and other towns in Canada, and men-of-war passed frequently up and down the Strait. Mr. Wightman was fishing off Cape Breton on one occasion when he heard in the fog the

Hastening in the direction of the report, he found the vessel aground and the crew en- gaged in throwing the guns overboard, He was welcomed as an angel from heaven.

and interrogated him as.to his knowledge of the coast. Assured on this point, and finding that all the efforts which had been made were unnecessary as well as futile, the captain gave Mr. Wightman full charge ‘of the ship; and the lieutenant approach- ing, touched “his hat, and awaited

{Mr. Wightman’s orders. These were given with such good ‘that the ship — the

svon aflvat, to the great relief of all concerned, particularly the officers, who immediately made up a purse of $700, and presented it to the saviour of the ship and their reputation. Subsequently they employed Mr. Wighiman to restore the guns, which they, in their panic, had thrown overboard, giving him £25 for each gun. It was inthis way that Mr. Wight- man got his ‘‘ start in life.”

A more traditional incident was suggested as the steamer passed by Pictou Island and the Little Cariboo. Between the latter and the shore of the mainland the water course is only about two hundred yards wide. It is said that during one of the wars of the Mictnacs and Mohawks, the Mchawks found out that a party of Micmacs were in hiding on the Island. Thinking that they could swim the passage, they resolved to do se in the night, and kill their enemies while asleep. They accordingly plunged in. But the sea swallowed them up, anc on the following morning cast some of their bodies high and dry upon the beach, with their deadly tomahawks attached.

The extension of the railway from Pictou to New Glasgow is evidently a great advan- tage to the former, while, contrary to the

in the career ofthe late Hon, Joseph Wight-

report of a British frigate’s signal gun. |

The captain had him on board in a jiffey, |

cellent goods in Ontario and (Quebec, as well as in the Maritime Provinces. They employ about 110 workmen.

It is worthy of remark that the opera- tives were, in 1881, ali foreigners,—now they are all, with searcely an excaption, native born young Canadians kept at home.

The process by which the sand is chang- ed into glassware, such as we see daily in use, is one of the most interesting that can be seen. Imagine a number of circular furnaces in the midst of a circular area, each furnace surrounded by a body of workmen: some are drawing forth the liquid glass and pouring it into moulds, others cutting the half cooled glass with | scissors, others disclosing the goblet or jug | as soon as it has hardened ; others, again, | blowing through tubes like gas pipe, forming from the liquid masses, at the ends | of the tubes, the lamp-chimneys which we | use for our kerosene lamps,—all the opera- | tions being carried on and completed before | the liquid glass has had time to harden,— | and you may form an idea of the work ' which is done at the glass factory and the | dexterity of the workmen.

From the hands of the workmen at the! furnaces, the glassware is carried away as it | is made, and placed over a slow fire to be | subjected to various degrees of heatin order | that it may be annealed or tempered. Then | it is carefullyjpacked in boxes to be distribut- | ed throughout the Dominien.

The quality of the glassware made at | New Glasgow is, undoubtedly, excellent,—- quite good enough for use by anyone.

It was difficult to draW some members of | our party away from the glassworks—so | deeply were they interested in the opera- tions; but time passed, and the Steel Works were to be seen. | The plant of the Nova Scotia Steel and Forge Company covers fifteen acres, ex- tending slong the shore of the East River ; ‘and the paid up capital invested amounts | to $400,000, most of which is owned by jenterprising men in New Glasgow. The ‘Company was found in 1882 and re-organ- ized with larger powers and additional capital on the first day ofthe present year.

the steel ingots, previously prepared, were | being passed through the roliing mills and _pressed out into long flat bars, such as we ;see at the hardware stores. Heated toa white heat in a furnace near by, the ingots | were conveyed to the rollers by means of a | crane, and passed by ready workmen from one rolling mill to another, each mill mak- jing them smaller and longer. Veritable fiery serpents they seemed as they squirm- ed under the pressure of the rollers.

From this point we passed on, all too quickly, to the furnaces in which the iron

like porridge befure breakfast. Workmen

were preparing to draw a charge. A great pot stood ready to re- ceive the steel as it spurted out,

and eighteen moulds—each capable of holding a ton—were extended in line along a trench underneath the pot. A piece of

‘the place. ‘with unlnown quantities of iron ore close at hand, possessing limestone and freestone

We entered the works at a point at which |

amount to about $10,000 a month—a nice litile supplement to the ‘circulating me- dium” of New Glasgow.

Besides the glass works and the steel works, there are in New Glasgow many in- dustries of more or less importance. In- deed, the spirit of enterprise seems to be awake to ali the advantages within reach of The centre of a vast coal area,

in abundance, having communication with the world at large and Canada in particular, by sea and Jand, the possibilities of New Glasgow, and indeed the whole of Pictou County, are great beyond calculation.

‘Best of All:

Cough medicines, Ayer’s Cherry Pec- toral is in greater demand than ever. No preparation for Throat and Lung Troubles is so prompt in its effects, so agreeable to the taste, and so widely known, as this. It is the family medi- cine in thousands of households.

“IT have suffered for years from @ bronchial trouble that, whenever [ take cold or am exposed to inclement weath- er, shows itself by a very annoying tickling sensation in the throat and by difficulty in breathing. I have tried a great many seennition. kab none does so well as Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral which always gives prompt relief in returns of my old complaint.’’— Ernest A. Hepler, Inspector of Public Roads, Parish Ter- re Bonne, La.

“JT consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a most important remedy

For Home Use.

¥ have tested its curative power, in my family, many times during the past thirty years, and have never known it to fail. It will relieve the most serious affections of the throat and lungs, whether in children or adults.’”’ — Mrs, E. G. Edgerly, Council Bluffs, Tova.

“Twenty years ago I was troubled with a disease of the lungs. Doctors afforded me no relief and considered my case hopeless. I then to use Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and, before I had finished one bottle, found relief. I continued to take this medicine until a cure was effected. I believe that Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral saved my life.””— Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, IIL

“ Six roam ago I contracted a severa cold, which settled on my lungs and soon developed all the alarming sym toms of Consumption. I had a cough, night sweats; bleeding of the lungs, pains in chest and sides, and was so prostrated as to be confined to my ed most of the time. After trying various prescriptions, without benefit, my physician finally determined to give me Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. I took it, and the effect was magical. I see to rally from the first dose of this medicine, and, after using only three bottles, am as well and sound as ever,” — Rodney Johnson, Springfield, Ill.

metal spouting was placed with one end at the mouth of the furnace and the other on | the edge of the pot; and over this was spread a covering to shield the operatives from the terrible heat of the fluid, steel. One of the men then took up a crow bar and inserted it into the mouth of the fur- nace; another stood by with a sledge ham- mer in hand. One blow, and a million sparkles envelop the men; another blow or two, and the bubbling tide in the furnace’ gusbes out. Eighteen tons of it and more are poured forth ere the huge pot is iull to the brim. As soon as it is full, the spout- ing is knocked away, the liquid — still remaining in the furnace being permit- ted to run out into the trench below. The pot, with its contents, is then propelled by means of a steam engine and | crane, directly over the moulds in the} trench, When the first mould is) reached, a lever, attached to the pot, is ap

Glasgow with a determination to develop the magnificent resources,. in coal and iron, by which the town is sur-! rounded. That the people may have} an idea of what they are doing in this respect, carriages were placed at the the disposal of the Maritime Press Associa- tion by the New Glasgow Board of Trade. We had thus an opportunity to see the magnificent views afforded by a drive to the top of Fraser’s Mountain, and thg in- teresting operations which are carri€a on at the glass factory and steel works. The mountain’s side is are for splendid prospect far and wide.”

We have on hand a large stock of this Celebrated Vinegar, which is, without doubt, the best Pickling Vinegar in the: market to-day. As we import this direct from England our-| selves, we can guarantee the quality.

The Nova Scotia Glass Company began’ operations in the year 1881. The town of | Trenton, a surburb of New Glasgow, was, then—nowhere. The glass factory was erected on the border of a scrubby wood ;' and the houses of the first operatives were |

A_ work- man stands by, and, as soon as the mould is full, stops the flow, and moves the pot on to the next mould, repeating the operation until the pot is empty and the moulds have all been filled.

To a looker-on the easy manner with | which the workmen regard the heat of the | furnace and the flowing steel is amazing. | **They soon get used to it,” is the ready
