During the past week about half
the spawn in the U. S. fish hatchery
in this city have Matched, and three
paintings of about one and half
million fish each, have been made at
the following places North Point,
Scare Crow island and Altoona. Last
Sunday a very large amount of the
young fish were taken and placed on
the reef near Gull island, and last
Monday another shipment was sent to
be placed in the waters Of Lake
Huron off Huntsville. The gentle
men in charge of the hatchery will
have the pleasure Of making a second
successful season, and will place in
the waters Of the Lake Huron this
spring about 25,O00,00O young white
fish. The hatchery has been running
two years here, and has proved a
success as far as regards Matching the
fish. Last fall great difficulty was
experienced in obtaining white fish
spawn, and more fish would have been
Matched this spring if the spawn
could have been obtained. The
hatchery has capacity for Matching
10o,0o0,0o0 fish. During the. past
winter but very little trouble was oc-

VOcalists and Bell Players.

The Alleghanians announced to APP
pear at the Opera House April 30th
and May 1st and 2nd, have recently
returned from a very successful tour
of eleven years in Europe. The
troupe comes to us with the highest
praise from the European press, as
well as an unequivocal endorsement
from the American press, both before
they left and since they returned from
Europe. As vocalists they delight
their audiences where ever they ap-
pear; and as bell players are said to
have no superiors. The following is
from the Detroit Free Press of Feb
ruary 22nd, 1884,
The performances in the Grand Opera
House last evening by the group of vocal
lists and bell ringers, known as "The ALLIE
ghanies," was witnessed by an audience
whose appreciation, If measured by the APP
plause which followed almost every num-
Der Of the performance, must have been
gratifying to the entertainers. The mar
Vicious performances of the troupe upon
their magnificent peal of one hundred and
twenty Swiss bells, was of course special
feature of the entertainment, whether view
ed In tho light of its musical excellence, or
as an exhibition of def manipulation. The
vocal force Of the company includes sever
al voices Of unusual excellence, and the
duets, songs, and ballads sung last evening
were richly deserving Of the frequent en-
cores the vocalists received. The accom-
paniments, played with admirable correct
ness, and the perfect time and accord of
the choruses, attained evidently by long
years of continuous practice and concert,
'impart swaying power to their music,
which asserts itself in most all the num-
bers. This is especially noticeable in their
rendition of "The Burning Ship in
which selections the abilities Of the per-
formers are brought into play with telling
effect, rendering the piece "morceau," to
hear which is alone worth the price of adj
mission. The engagement concludes with
to-nights performance, and none who APP
preciatc an evenings genuine enjoyment
should fail TO attend

The formal opening Of the roller
skating rink Of Mr.. Fournier, On
Chisholm street, took place last Satur-
day evening. 1t was well patronized,
and considering that the citizens have
had but very little practice with roller
skates, those who tried the rollers did
remarkably well, and soon seemed to
master the art. There were some
tumbles, but most Of them were caus-
ed by the crowded condition of the
rink. When q man did fall, he made
racket enough for a whole family.
One Of the young lady skaters had a
severe fall. Music was furnished by
the Germania band. The rink ought
to receive sufficient patronage to make
it financial success. 1t will be the
means Of providing healthy and
entertaining amusement, and such
places are needed.
