Akron is in holiday costume to-
day.
There are thousands of strangers
here, and the citizens have turned
out en- masse to applaud the trI-
umphant victory achieved by the
promoters and designers of Akron s
Free Carnival and Street Fair, and
to speak praises on the excellent
manner in which all arrangements
have been carried out.
In the Carnival district, Main and
Howard streets between Market ana
Mill. and the south side of Market
street, between Main and Howard.
the whole district is emblazoned
with colors of every hue and tint,
and there is music coming from every
direction. The scene is almost be-
wildering at first, but the spectator
in a few minutes becomes accustomed
to the richness of character which
predominates every feature of the
entire display, and starts in to enjoy
the thousand and one beautiful
sights.
Moorish Pavilions.
The four Moorish pavilions are
the remark of all. Such beauty of
finish and richness of design are
seldom seen displayed in so fastid-
ious a manner on such pavilions.
Each cost $500, making the total
$4,000. But when did Akron 5 clti-
zens ever do anything on small
scale? The pavilions are occupied
by the four bands in attendance.
From the dome of each pavilion eX-
tends graceful flag pole from which
floats q large American flag. The
domes of the paviiions are painted
in several colors. Coiored lights are
arranged all over the beautiful
structures. The interiors OF the
seating part of the pavili"ns are
draped in rich Oriental colors, whose.
effect is given an enhanced beauty
when the lights are turned on. The
grotesque designs in which the pa
vilions are painted produce very
pretty effect.
Beautiful Picture
But the spectator looks up and
down the streets and all around him.
Whichever way he looks a beautiful
picture is presented. On either side
of the streets the booths and awnings
are covered with drapery OF red,
white and blue. Extending high
above the booths and awnings are
rows of flag poles, painted white, and
topped with golden balls. From the
top of each pole banners and banner
cites are hung, while between the
poles are strung verges streamers-
all in Oriental colors, embracing ~
designs and u different shapes. For
a moment your eye leaves the booths
and awnings and you wonder if the
buildings in the fair district are as
gaily decorated. You take look
and are convinced that no incon-
sistency is to be seen-everywhere
there is a symmetry of beauty and
taste. All the buildings, public
buildings. especially, are beautifully
decorated with various artistic de-
signs and colors. For a moment

There are 43 church organizations
in the city occupying large substan-
tial edifices. The children attending
public schools are educated in u
modern buildings, besides which
there are four parochial schools.
Buchtel college, erected in 1871, is
one of the best known educational
institutions in the state.
The fire and police departments Of
the city are equal to any city of Ak
ron's population in Ohio. There are
fonr fire stations conveniently locat-
ed. with fire hydrants on every cor
her.

We Need Factories.
States.

Manufacturing industries are
rapidly increasing in many OF the
Southern States, but there are no
encouraging reports in this line 30
far as Louisiana is concerned, al
though what We need the most are
factories and especially mills for
the production of the cotton goods
of all kinds. According to such
good authority as the Manufactu-
rer's Record, a company has been
organized for the purpose of esta-
blishing at Lynchburg, Va, mill
for the manufacture of underwear.
A contract has already been awar-
ded for the buildings and machin-
cry and as soon as everything is
in readiness to begin operation
employment will be given to 200
people.
The fact that "New York par
ties" have come so far South to
establish an enterprise of this kind
instead of establishing it in their
own State or section, shows that
they have found good reasons, af-
ter careful investigation of course,
to believe that there are special
and important advantages for the
conduct of their industry in this
section, which they wish to profit
by.
Another news item in the same
publication goes to show the judy
ment of the New Workers. is good,
and has been justified in the ex-
perience of investors still further
South-in North Carolina. The
Durham Hosiery Mills, says the
Record, which now runs 275 knit
ting machines and employs 400
persons, intends to increase its
plant so per cent, the improve
ment to include the erection of
new building and the installation
of considerable additional machin-
cry. A knitting mill which en-
ploys 400 people is not a small af-
fair of its kind, to begin with, and
tho fact that the Durham people
are moved to enlarge their enter
prise so materially, and SO soon
after starting it, proves that it has
paid them and paid them we'll.
There is great deal of latent
capital in New Orleans and it
would yield large profits to the
owners of it were it invested in
manufacturing enterprises which
would supply the demand for very
many articles which our people
have at home and in those neigh
boring States are compelled to
purchase from the factories of the
North and East. In this way vast
sums of money would be kept at
home and employment furnished
to thousands of idle people who
are willing and anxious to work.
This alone would result in a free
circulation of money and all man.
ner of business would be greatly
stimulated. New Orleans is just
beginning to appreciate the neces-
sity of getting out of the rut in
which she has been for 80 many
years and the surest way to give
her life is by the people turning
their attention to manufactures
1t can not be disputed that the
most prosperous cities in this
country are those in which the
roar of factory wheels is heard in.

TERRIBLE HAVOC BY HURRIoANE

Chicago, August 11.-A special from
Vancouver, b. O., TO the Tribune. Gays:
Terrible havoc occurred from recent
hurricane of the Australian coast, ao-
oording to advices here by the Miowera
today. Five ships foundered at sea, or
were wrecked and over a hundred lives
wers lost. The City OF New York, an
iron ship OF ITO tons, went ashore at
Bottenest island and is q total wreck.
Eleven lives were lost. The wreck of the
Carlisle Castle, was the most frightful
that occurred on the coast for two years
Thirty-three persons among the passen-
gers are missing, and while many were
drowned, many were eaten by sharks.
The Argusburg was carrying cargo OF
horses along the coast. The stalls were
torn down by the great masses of water
that came in over the deck and a large
number of ths animals were drowned.
Two other unknown ships were wrecked
during the storm and large number o.
passengers were lost.
