SEPTEMBER'S SURPRISES.
A LIVELY FALL IN PAsSE NIGER RATES,
AND EVENTS IN STORE WHICH WILL
GREATLY EXCEED EXPECTATION.


The busy note of preparation in
Baltimore for the coming Summer
Nights Carnival is heard on all sides,
and the city appears to be waking up
as never before to the determination
to make this years celebration GER
tainly the biggest event of the char
acter ever conceived of in this or any
other country. The novel features
being steadily added to the already
most brilliant programme speaks
strongly of the striking talent pos
sessed among the good citizens, who,
spend day and night in planning and
executing.
The city Examinations prorAise to be
upon a most extensive scale, and al
most altogether in the electric line
Many buildings will be literally ablaze
with bright lights in all eolors, and it
is proposed to demonstrate in hitherto
.untried fields what can be done with
electricity.
The harbor display on the opening
night will be as unique as possible to
imagine, and veritable fairy scene.
Every description of light will be in
troduced, and the pyrotechnical fea~
lures novel and of great scope of de-
sign. Baltimore, as the nearest Attain
tic seaport to an enormous section of
country, will show her uhsurpas Sad
harbor to the multitude after fas zion
never before dreamed of. The r. eeep-
ton of Lord Baltimore on the night
in question, with all its attends mt eff
fects, will be something to rem lerNber
for years, and amply repay Journey
even across the continent. Pageant
night will also prove another memor
able occasion, for never in European
or, American cities has parade of
such magnitude or of such emarkable
richness and novelty been attempted.
Last years pageant was conceded by
New Orleans mystic e4 ;perts them
selves, as we'll as those from Mobile
Memphis, Galveston an6i st. Louis, to
have been beyond all omparison the
grandest pageant ever. witnessed in
this country. If such. was the unani.
nous verdict last year it would be diff.
cult to measure the Ii nit of praise this
year, as the pageant, now in its finish
ing stage. is inestima'Oly superior, larg-
er, grander, and in every way finel
than that of 1882. Tt will require a
regiment of men and horses to put il
upon the street-upward of thirteen
hundred men and two hundred and
sixty odd horses. Thirty thousand
dollars would not begin to cover the
expense of this one display. From
this prospective visitors may CLEAN
some idea of what is in store for them
Not only will expectation during So
journ IN the city the second week in
September be more than realized, but
travel to and from will be looked after
with most painstaking care.
The Baltimore and Ohio. not con
tent with making the exceptionally low
rate of half fare, or one regular fare
for the round trip from all stations
on its greet system, but has arranged
a series of excursions which viii
afford the greatest possible facilities
for enjoyment. The visitor cannot in
