what Ii Being Done and Id Prospect Ia
This City.
Durius the last week several important
changes have taken place in the working
world, and especially so in the nail depart
ment The first and most prominent was
the meeting ofthe representatives Of The ten
nail mills Of this district, held last Thur |
day, at which meeting the nail card was ad-
vanced from 50. ID TO 1920 per keg. Our
readers are aware that this is the Sec
ond advance in the card rate in
the last thirty days. The FIRST
advance to. S2.l5 per keg made by the
mills in this vicinity and adopted by what
was once known as the Western Nail Asso-
citation, That association amounts to
nothing now, owing to the departure from
iron to making steel nails. The first ad-
vance was but a %feeler, and as it worked
successfully the second advance was deemed
expedient. There is no question now but
that the card rate will be advanced steadily
until it reaches a living price. Nails must
be had and the manufacturers are now de-
termined to not sell any until they can real.
ize at least a small profit on the capital
invested.
The nail market has certainly exhibited
a remarkably healthy tone in fhe last four
weeks, with every indication pointing to.
ward a lively trade as soon as the building
season opens up.
A slight review Of what is being done at
each of the mills and other Industries Of

extreme northern point of the city. is work
ing a full force of men in the boiling, heat
ing and nail factory department. The

iron nails and turns out about $500 kegs
per week.
The Riverside mill company works are
working full force, excepting the upper
mill, where the boiling department is now
idle, having shut down Yesterday for an in
definite period. This compauy's factory
turns out nearly 1000 kegs Of steel nails
per week.
The Belmont mill win start up fall in all
Departments tomorrow, after an idleness OF
several weeks. This firm turns out oye-
5000 kegs Of iron nails per week. There

press purpose Of amusement, Friday nights

Friday evenings carnival was almost the
sole topic Of conversation among the young
ladies and gentlemen Of the city yesterday,
All agreed that II was one Of the most sue
cessful ever held in the city, and the visitors
from abroad, who had the good fortune to
be present, either as participants or as sim
pie spectators, were LAVISH in their express
sions of qualification. While the affair, 81
course, owes much of It's success to the an
firing efforts of the committee in chSrge,
backed as they were by the substantial aP-
proyal Of our citizens, no little credifS due
to the proprietors Of the Capitol rink,
Messrs. Lariin & Handlan, for the use Of
the building, and the completeness Of the ar
Engagements they had made for tho event.
The amount realized was about $3.50.

Natural

Two miles vest Of Bellaire, at Wallaes's
dam. there is q natural curiosity. Or
rather, it IS partly natural and partly arti-
fcial. A stream Of salt water issues from
the abandoned oil web at that point. This
stream bubbles through the surface where
the gas arises. The aow Of gas is burning,
and there is presented the extrsordiasry
spectacle Of an extremely hot FIRE, with a
blaze two to four feet high, burning on the
surface Of the water. The salt water IS OF
course heated and runs away to the creek,
20 feet distant.
