Communicated.

To the Editor Of Weekly Argus:
SIR:-I have noticed from time
to time calls from the press of the
city for reports, etc., of the officers
Of the Alpena County Agricultural
Society. In reply to these remarks
and the public generally, remark
that the executive officers have
done their duty as far as practical
BILE; their records are all made
up, the books entered up and post
ed, accounts all settled that can be,
and the reports of the Secretary
and Treasurer are completed and
filed, and subject to the inspection
of all who feel interested enough
to do so.
1t must occur that this being
done the executive officers
have performed all the functions of
their respective Offices, and the re-
mainder Of the duties rests with
the Board of Managers and Direc-
tors. For the purpose of the consid-
Grafton Of the reports, books, etc.,
and reviewing the proceedings of
the affair, several meetings of the
directors have been called, and
they have not responded. On
three occasions formal calls for a
meeting of the directors have been
printed in all the papers Of the
city, and Notwithstanding the en-
inent probability that through this
neglect the society will loose the
lands purchased for fair grounds,
together with about one thousand
eight hundred dollars expended on
buildings, fences, and trotting park,
these directors neglect and refuse
to meet and attend to their duties.
As there Is strong probability
that the present course will lead TO
4 flzzle, and q loss Of the lands and
I make this statement
hat the responsibility may rest
where 1t belongs.
Very respectfully you're,
J. X. LOCKWOOD,
Pres. Aipena County Agricultural Society.
Alpena, Jan. 10, 1880.
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1880-01-21

ever took place in this city. The
guests numbered about two hum
dred, and comprised the elite of
Alpena. The formal reception be-
ing over, part of the company en-
engaged in tripping the light fan
tsstic toe" about nine o'clock, while
tables for card playing and other
games were placed on the stage,
in readiness for those who chose
to so enjoy themselves. The sight
was truly brilliant. The food
of light given from the five chande.
liers showed to the best advan-
tage the many groups below. The
stage scenery was so set as to show
lovely grounds, beds Of pansies, beau
tiful fountains, and all that goes to
make up beautiful surroundings to
magnificent mansion in the back
ground and the company seemed
to be having pleasant time on
the green sward. About half past
ten the guests were invited to par
take of the good things which had
been bountifully provided by the
hostesses and showed at once that
the good wives of Alpena were
capable of presiding in the kitchen
or drawing room.
The company being seated, the
hum of conversation and the clink
of knife and platter took the place
Of the orchestra. The joyful
laugh of the ladies and the grave
jokes Of the sterner sex were chas-
ing each other in rapid succession,
when-hark the stage bell rings,
the beautiful curtain is raised, and
with it, the fitting climax to such
an assembly was reached. There
stood Prof. Cheesbro and his fine
Band, an institution that this city
is justly proud of-their appear
ance in full uniform, their excellent
position on the stage, and the grand
harmony that was coming from
those twenty brazen throats, as
they performed overture to the
Caliph of Bagdad, had taken all by
surprise, and in the body of the
hall, sat or stood, perfectly amazed
company. No one, it appears.
was aware that the Professor had
taken this plan of presenting the
compliments of himself and the
gentlemen comprising the Band in
this most welcome and delicate
manner; but the waving of hand
kerchiefs from the fair ones and
the roar of applause from the
"lords of creation" told him in I'M
mistakable language, that he and
his Band had host of friends in
the room, and that they fully APP
preciated the spirit in which this
compliment had been presented to
their wives and friends. After
partaking of refreshments, the
Band played set of waltzes, to
which large number of the COM
pany danced, and then left, having
done the right thing, at the right
time and the right place. The
orchestra again struck up, and
dancing, etc, was kept up till the
small hours of the morning, when
all went home, having spent most
enjoyable evening-the best pre-
pared, best managed, and best APP
pointed gathering of the kind that
ever took place in this city.

We are panied to learn Of the
loss Of the residence of David
Stewart, by fire. on Friday morn
ing last. 1t seems that the house
took fire from stove pipe which
run up through the roof, and when
discovered it bad gained such
Roadway that all efforts to check
the progress of the flames proved
without avail, and in an incredible
short time the whole house was
wrapt in one mass of flames. The
family escaped with barely the
clothes on their backs, and nearly
the whole contents of the house
were consumed in the devouring
flames. Chase Benjamin also lost
all of his worldly effects except his
rifle. The entire loss on the house
and its contents will probably not
fall much short of 5000, and it is
severe drawback to the sufferers.

The weather continuing warm
and spring like, is a serious draw
back to the lumberman. There is
no snow on the ground, and the
log roads are In such condition
that little or nothing can be done
in the way of hauling logs until
freezing weather, which does not
seom to be very plentiful this win
ter. Lumbermen do not feel
warranted in skidding a very great
amount of logs, with such poor
prospects of getting them into
the streams, and the consequence is
that camps are not all running at
full strength, aud there are many
men now in town who would he at
work if the weather wonld admit
of good lumber operations.
