feature of the carnival that has yet to be
appreciated In connection with 1t will be
the use OF Partisan confetti, as Is the Gus
tom In carnival time in Europe. This con-
tettl Is nothing more or less than chopped
paper OF ALI shades. particularly crimson,
green and gold. and it is to be supplied by
the bagful. Bushels Of confetti have al
ready been furnished in this connection.
and there should be no difficulty In getting
the revelers to wake ND to the fun that is
possible through grabbing handful of
confetti and throwing il full in the face or
over the gaudy trappings of whoever one
comes in contact with.

The gentlemen who manipulate the busi-
ness ends of the daily newspapers of this
city concluded that they would take day
off yesterday. and for the nonce forget
their daily avocation of capturing the tell
ing "ad" and eloquent write up"
To this end committee was appointed
and 150 of the speedy boys were invited
with the privilege of taking their lady
friends on an excursion around the bay.
The veteran bay steamer Caroline was
chartered for the occasion, in view of the
fact that she never ships water over her
bows in consequence of speed. and further
more that she would sooner stick her nose
in the mud than turn her black bottom to
the sun.
Anterior to embarkation from Jackson
street wharf teams drove up drawing
wagons filed with barrels bearing the
familiar brands of well-known breweries,
together with demijohns with significant
labels and baskets containing various
assortments of sand wiches and other
edibles.
After the jolly party had boarded with
an excellent band of music the captain
Tooted his whistle and the gallant craft
drew out amid strains of music and general
hilaritv, heading for the Pacific Rolling
Mills and Union Iron Works.
