ALLY CALDER, in the character OF
Fanchon, was complimented by nu-
merous and appreciative audience on
Tuesday evening. The Sai f'rd Cons
edy Troupe excels all others who have
ever appeared on the Knoxville stage.
Those who enjoy a good theatrical
performance should give at least one
hearing to this Troupe.
OF the celebration at Knoxville the
State Register says:
An immense crowd, under the au-
spices Of the Soldiers Reunion and
citizens, assembled. The number was
variously estimated at from 5000 to
10000. The speeches were made by
Adiutant- General Baker and ex-Gov-
ernor Stone. After the speeches, there
was parade of the fantasies in
which many Of the peculiarities of our
times were ridiculed.
At about 5 p. M, violent storm OF
wind, hail and rain arose, and for
nearly an hour the people sought pro-
lection i'm all the buildings in town.
At sunset, all was clear again, and an
excellent display Of fireworks conclu-
ded the celebration. The Monroe cor
net band furnished most excellent mu-
sic for the occasion.

THE STORM Of last Friday evening
damaged the crops very seriously In
all parts Of the county; but in some
localities, In the west and southwest
portions, tho hail storm was severe
and added much to the injuries caused
by the wind and rain. Much Of the
corn was stripped almost to the bare
stalk, and much blown down and bro
ken. Wheat, oats, rye and barley
were blown to the ground. Saturdays
and Mondays storms largely aug
mented the damage. Harvesting will
be rendered tedious and difficult, and
the yield materially lessened. The
loss to tho farmers of the county will
be many thousands Of dollars.

THE ALBA SPIRIT copies from the
VOTER of two weeks ago some remarks
about our railroad prospects, and thus
comments:
Knoxville Is growing anxious to Sc
cure, beyond doubt, the building of
a railway from some direction to that
place. We find no fault with them for
wanting road, nor with their becom-
ing impatient at the delay In commen-
cling work on the Abba, Knoxville,
and Des Moines railroad. hut, till
they might have acquainted them
selves with all the facts occasioning
the delay, they should have been slow
to give 1t and us the cold shoulder.
We depended upon the people Of Ma
rion county to help us through; and we
verify think they might have had a
road Just as soon as they now will, il
they had remained steadfast in urging
up the old project. And, in the event
Of the completion Of the A. X. & D..
the people Of Marion county could
have the choice of either Of two routes
to the East--the G.. b. 4 @, and the
C. r. i. III land into the bargain be
on a line that inevitably must be q
mart Of short route to st. Louis from
the capitAl of Iowa. To a locker on
at THE eilssance from the scene, Il seems
that the people Of Knoxville are about
TO commit q mistake, as we cannot
think they will any earlier have rail-
road, than II they had continued to CO.
operate with us. 8lf& af f8Ea

TIE HAwK.EYE CoMPANY's Work.
rSG FoRcE.-In few days the Hawk
E,ue will be issued from its new guar ters
~, Third street. The work of moving
has al ready commenced, but will neces-
sarily occupy some time. When fairly
settlea we shall have not only thorough
Iy equipped establishment, but well
organized working force, with pracucai
man. and member OF Ihe Hawk-Eye
Company, at the head OF each department.
Presuming that our friends ana patrons
will he interested in the arrangement
of the working forces of the new estab-
Iishment we herewith give the names OF
the officers of The Hawk-Eye Company
and the heads of the various departments:
President-E. Blackmar.
Vice President-C. Y. Wheeler.
Secretary and Treasurer-R. X. Dorr.
Editor-jn- Chief-Chas. Beardsley.
Manager Of Bindery-S. II. Acres.
Manager of Printing!. Cullaton.
Manager Of Subscriptio and Advertis-
ING. Y. Wheeler.
The name of the different positions
sufficiently indicate their respecti i've char
acters. Mr.. Dorr, in addition To ms
duties as Secretary and Treasurer OF the
Company. will also be its Cashier ana
have charge of its books. He has already
in similar capacity as member OF the
firm of Acres, Biackmar IL Co., and in
the wider field 70 which the new business
will introduce him. his associates have
entire confidence that he will be fully
equal to its demands. Mr.. Acres has
long established reputation as one OF the
most-compiete and finished workmen in
the country: while Mr.. Cullaton, both as
Job and newspaper printer, acknow3-
edges no superior in his line. Mr. Wheel
err will devote his time TO subscription
and advertising, and, with his we'll
known energy and push. 1t is expected
that he will give new life TO those I'M
portant departments of the newspaper
business. Mr.. Blackmar, as business
superintendent, will occupy the same
place relatively in the new firm that he
did in the one With which his name was
previously connected, and where he was
so well and favorab.y known. Under
the new arrangement DR.. Beardsley re-
tains the place on the paper that he has
held for the last eight years, with the DIFF
ference that he will now be relieved from
all business annoyance and responsible
ty, and will have more assistance on the
general work than he has had heretofore.
Unquestionably the Hawk Eye Comp
any will have the largest and most COM
pletely systematized establishment of its
kind in the State, and it is the hope and
expectation ofthose composing the Comp
any, all of whom will be actively engaged
in promoting its interests, that. it will
continue to kecpin the lead and that in
all its departments its work will be 80
well aud faithfully done that it will con-
tinue to grow in favor with the people, to
whose patronage and good will we shall
be indebted tor the success which we
shall try to deserye.-Hai0k-Ey Eye.

THE FOURTH AT ATTICA.-We have
waited till the last hour before going
to press for account of the Grange ju-
bilee at Attica, from some correspond
ent who was present and could give a
detailed report. Having received no
full report, We can only say briefly
that the Patrons of Indiana, Wash
ington, Liberty, Clay and Knoxville
townships were out in strong force,
and large numbers of people, not
Changers, Joined them.
When assembled, the throng listen
ed to addresses by Capt. VIM. Blain,
District Deputy, Rev. b. +. Shane,
and others. The Basket Dinner needs
no description; everybody knows
what basket dinner is, and how it is
always enjoyed.
The Pella Blade has all this to say
about the affair:
''The Changers had a splendid cell
ebration in Attica on the Fourth.
Speaking, Basket Dinner, etc. There
Was large turn out and they had q
magnificent tinie."

THE CENTRAL--At the railroad
| meeting held at the courthouse on last
Saturday, Simeon WicoH was chosen
President, and A. A. Mason, Secreta-
ry, and Judge Townsend, }. ii. Drake,
and DIR. A. A. Ramsay were appointed
to attend the meeting Of the officers

yesterday. The meeting instructed
these delegates to cast vote In favor
! CO issuing preferred stock of $40, 600 per
mile to lift the third mortgage from
the road, purchase additional rolling
stock, etc, provided the company will
finish the road through to Moulton.
The people Of this city and county
have long time been anxiously wait
ing to hear the positive news OF the in
tention of this or some other company
undertaking the finishing of the work
on the Abba Mouton gap. 1t seems
to us to be species of siiliest negli-
gence to allow this short distance to
lie out to the commons when by COM
paratively small expenditure, 1t would
connect all of Central Iowa directly
with So. Louis, and open up trade that
would give business to Iowa railways.
The tonnage of the Central Railroad Of
Iowa could hardly fail of TRIPPING the
first month after the link is closed
that would complete the continuous
rail to tho great city of the Mississippi
Valley. The company will acquire
very suddenly the praises Of the public
In this portion of Iowa If 1t may legis-
late In favor of beginning the work
and persistently continuing till It IL
done. We hope our delegation may
bring us back cheering word from
Marshall. --Atbio Spirit, July ID.

KNOXVILLE CELEBRATIOE.-it ID
pleasant to witness the evidences and
contemplate the fact that there Is in
tho American heart real deep and
abiding reverence for our national boil
iday, the 4th day OF July; and that
this reverence Is something more than
the love OF holiday for it's spangles
and novelties. The crowds Of people
.ho fiooked TO Knoxville last Friday,
and those who assembled at thousands
of other places throughout the conn-
try, the nulttudes who have gathered
on tbis day for almost century past,
we're impelled by some motive more
worthy Of an enlightened people than
That Of love Of mere show, glitter and
sport. Powder, oratory and bunting
are necessary incidentals, Of course,
but there Ii noble, patriotic meaning
ia al this noise and tape. 1t means
that we recognize the Declaration Of
lulepedenee as declaration of liberty
- well; that We remember with pride
the circumstances under which 1t was
made, and are prepared in the future
~ IN the past to defend Ii at the hazard
,fife, fortune and sacred honor.
The exercises announced in our pro-
grannie for the forenoon, were all, ex-
cept the Soldiers March, deferred TO
afternoon. The march was almost a
4, lure. as the soldiers, who were here
~ hundreds, decided that marching
fr show was "played out" Howev-
~, small procession, under command
al Capt. Cherrie, Chief Marshal, fol-
lived the Monroe Cornet Band and
rrps Of martial music through some
u he principal streets.
The day was sultry, aud the tbrong
80 Che streets and the public square,
aad in every building Dea:, to which
sf.ce4s could be had, was dense, at noon
was estimated 10 number from six
- eight thousand, and by o'clock =.
