THE HALIFAX CARNIVAL,

of the Events.

A VERY SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR,

the Dry

—e ee

Review Opening Bock.

(Staff Correspondence of The iixraminer)

With the carnival ball and concert in the

} . . ‘public gardens, last evening, the summer

carnival practically closed. The weather threughout, save and excepting the rain showers of Monday evenmg and this morn- ing, has been bright, clear and cool, just what was wanted. The programme, as ad- vertised, was well carried out, and all the visitors were delighted. The military and naval exhibition, and the torchlight pro- cessions on the harbor and through the streets were the most imposing features of The military and firemen’s tournaments and the aquatic sports were also very interesting, the different events being well contested. The promenade con- cert in the public gardens, and the many taoonlight and otber excursions on the har- bor were very pretty and pleasing features.

iindeed, all the proceedings were carried

out ina manner which showed clearly that the committee had worked energetically to imake the celebration a success.

The summer carnival has certainly been a great thing for Halifax. It involved an expenditure of abopt $12,000, Of this sum

sum the city contributed $3,000, and the balance was private subscrip- tions. The general impression is that

the money was well spent. During the celebration, there could not have been less than 20,000 persons in the city. The differ- ent hotels were thronged, and the private boarding houses were all taken up. The United States was largely represented, as was also the Upper and Maritime Pro- vineces. All the visitors were well pleased with the Carnival, and will lose no oppor- tuuity of telling their friends who were not fortunate enough to be present, of the grand time they had in “‘the city by the sea.” In that and othet ways Halifax will be well and extensively advertised and the result will be that the next celebration will! be even more largely attended.

The different j;ress representatives pre- sent at the festivities had every courtesy and attention shown them by the press re- ception cc«amittee, of which Mr. A. M. Fraser, of the Critic, was the indetatigable chairman. On their arrival in the city the members of the fraternity were furnished with badges which entitied them to free admissivn to the majority of the events on the programme, and where the badges would not admit a pass signed by the chair- man would, In addition to the regular events the visiting newspaper men were treated to many beautiful drives through the city andsuburbs. In these and other ways the visitors were well looked after by- their brethren of the quill in the city. The reception committee was composed of A. M. Fraser, William Dennis, H. Wier, W. R. Dunne, J. W. Power, and F. W. Bowes, to each and all of whom THe Examiner’s ‘representative is indebted for many court- esies.

A very important event in yesterday's proceedings was the informal opening of the dry dock. Owing to the lateness of the announcement of this feature, and the attractions elsewhere, there were not more than one thousand people present to wit- ness the operations. About half-past five the Dartmouth, with a goodly number of excursionists and a brass band on board, steamed into the dock, the caisson of which

had been previously opened. After re- maining there for a short time she backed out again, the caisson was

closed, and the work of pumping out the dock began. After the pumping there were a series of dynamite explosions under the water. Three lots of dynaniite of 100 ibs. each were placed inthe water some way outside ihe dock at distances of about fifty yards apart. These were connected with wires and exploded from the dock. Immense columns of water were thrown up, one going up 200 feet, like the spire of a church, carrying a plank almost the entire distance, thus showing the tremendous force of the explosion. The next experi- ments were the explosion of some dynamite cartridges on shore, and exhibitions of divers work, all of which were very imter- esting and greatly appreciated by those privileged to witness them,

Tuat distention of the stomach which many people feel after eating, may be due to im- proper mastication of the food; but, in most cases, it indicates a weakness of the digestive organs, the best remedy for which is one of Ayer’s pills, to be taken after dinner.

A New Enterprise.

A BARREN WASTE TO BE TURNED INTO A BONANZA,

Avr the rear of farms owned by Messrs. Muna and Fletcher, Lot 48, aad distant about tive miles from the city, there is a barren waste of some one hundred acres in extent, which until lately was considered to be of no value whatever. This appar- ently worthless property was last year pur- chased from the Government by Messrs. McLeod & Stewart, of this city, and is likely to bee .me a source of wealth to its owners.

Within the past few years a new kind of bedding for horses and cattle has been in- troduced into tie United States. which, because of its cheapness and many excellent qualities, has rapidly worked its way into popular favor. The new material is known as “*peat moss,” and hitherto it has been imported from Germany, Holland and Rus- sia into the United States. At first it was used ouly by the breeders of high-class stock, and for horse-bedding. It was soon discovered, however, that it es many advantages over straw, and was in reality much more economical, Conse- quently the demand for the article has in- creased with great rapidity, and is practi- cally unlimited. Indeed, so rapidly has it superseded straw wherever introduced, that the supply is frequently unequal to the demand.

Respecting this new article of commerce the St.John Daily Telegraph has the foi- lowing: —‘* The moss is pure vegetable, en- tirely free from any impurities, so that it will not soil the clothes or hands in hand- ling it. Itis a wonderful absorbent, and will jake up and retain nine times its weigbt of liquid, and when used in the stable as bedding for horses and cattle, all the urine and moisture are perfectly ab- sorbed. This, besides keeping the animals and stable clean and sweet, make the man- ure more valuable. At last spring’s session of the Long Island Agricultural Society, one of the mosi prominent farmers’ clubs in the United States, it was decided that moss litier manure is the best known fer- tilizer in existence. As a {deodorizer, its effect is marked in the horse stable by the absence of ammonia fumes, so disagreeable to the smell, and so injurious to the eyes of animals; and in the cowstable by the entire dissipation of the odors arising from the manure, so injurious to milk.”

Horses, whose feet have become heated and sore from travelling on the hard streets experience the greatest comfort and relief from this kind of bedding, as it forms a soft cool substance for them te stand on, beside keeping them clean and dry, results im- possible to obtain when straw is used.

For hospitals and sick rooms it possesses properties which must render its use in- dispensable. There are various other uses to which it can be applied with profit and advantage. It isnot necessary, however, to refer to these at present, our object be- ing merely to give a general description of a branch of industry, which, we feel sure, is destined, ere long, to hold a prominent place among our Island manufactures.

The business of manufacturing the moss is now in the hands of a company who in- tend to push the work without delay, Messrs. McLeod & Stewart acting as general managers for toe present year. It is the intention of the Company to manu- facture aj few hundred tons of the article this fall, and to complete arrangements for opening next season ona more extensive scale. Building operations have already commenced at the barren, and in a few days the machinery for pressing, ete. will be completed.

The facilities for shipping are excellent, as the property is situated but a short dis- tance from the East River, which affords the company « cheap and easy means of means of transporting their product to the city.

A similar enterprise was started in New Brunswick last year with an immense cap- ital, and is already proving a success, the demand for the manufactured article having steadily increased with the supply.

it is claimed that the moss on the East Kiver barren is of a much better quality than that found in New Btunswick, and that it also lies deeper on the swamp,

Tho New Brunswick woss has been proved to be superior to any European im- portation, being free from pucker brush, gravel, sand or mud; so that the excellence of the East River variety becomes at once apparent.

Samples of the New Branswick and Island moss may be seen at the store of Messrs. McLeod & Stewart, Prince Street, who will be happy at any time to give fuller information respecting the nature of the moss, mode of manufacture, ete.
