The steamer City of Mackinac was
well worth seeing as she approached
her landing at the Mason wharf, in
this city. last Thursday forenoon,
Her forward deck was covered with
excursionists n large number were
standing on the hurricane deck, and
the top of the pilot house was also
covered with excursionists. On the
wharf were several hundred people
who had assembled to see the steamer
land. "How many passengers have
you got aboard ?" We inquired of the
efficient clerk, Mr.. Bielman. "Three
hundred" was the reply. Among the
passengers were camping party OF
Pennsylvanians, who were enroute
for Long Lake. A large number OF
the passengers took short stroll
through the business portion of the
city, and if any of them had been
here before, they could not help but
notice the difference in the appear.

The verdict of those present, as far
as we are able to learn, is that it was
one of the best entertainments ever
given in this city. There is nothing
offensive in the play. It's mission is
is to create laughter, and if there is
any mirth in the spectator, Felix Nc
Knsick and his assistants will make
it bloom.
A second representation was given
Of the play last night to a nearly full
house. There was hardly any change
from the first nights program. In
place of 1.-The hoy stood on the burn
ing deck" Mr.. Russell gave boys
composition on the horse, anil a Dutch
sketch. After the play was over. the
company embarked on the steamer
City of Alpena, for Cheboygnn. The
receipts for the two nights must
have been over 500.

The funeral of General Grant oc.
Cured last Saturday, at New York

the business places and many of the
mills were closed during the after.

tcrnoon the members of Lockwood

their post room in the Potter block.
On the street in front of their hall

Sol Smith Russell.

A person who can attract large
number of people to the Opera House
amuso and entertain them for a cou-
pie of hours make them laugh heart
lily and forget the cares, troubles and
tribulntions of life, and send them
home feeling better and with pleas
ant and agreeable thoughts, does hu-
mainly a great benefit. Such was
what Sol Smith Russell and tho ladies
and gentlemen who assisted him in
rendering Felix McKusick" at the
Opera House, Monday night last, did
for the numerous citizens who had
there assembled. He entertained
them immensely, he made them laugh
heartily and often, and his mirthful
prescriptions must have done great
good. Genial Sol Smith Russell, his
name is almost an household word
throughout the land, and his mission
airy work among the melancholy and
respondent is worthy Of the highest
praise. The Opera House was JAM
med full of citizens. every one of
whom appeared to be having much
enjoyment, which at times grew so in
tense that it was impossible to keep
quiet, and waves of laughter flooded
the room. A person who did not
laugh must have been bankrupt of
that much desired quality-mirth.
The play Of itself is not Of much
account, but has evidently been com.
posed to show the specialties Of Mr..
Russell and tho members of the
troupe. 1t commences with the life
of the local editor. Felix McKusick
is the editor and proprietor of the
Rocket" His greatest want is cash,
clothing and provisions. Of debts
he has an abundance and to spare.
The sheriff sells him out. In this
scene both Mr.. Russell as the impe.
cunious editor, Frank Lawton as
the printers devil, Miss Miriam
O'Leary ms "Nancy Potts." and Archie
Lindsay as "Crazy Old Potts." won
much praise. Mr.. Lawton also prov.
ed his ability as dancer and was
warmly npplaudcd, while Mr.. Russell
was showered with applause.
The next scene gives a little in
sight into the manner in which "side
show curiosities" are made. II
abounds in mirthful scenes. The last
scene shows the members of the scat
tered family united and McKusick
gets his girl.
During the play number Of songs
we're sung by Mr.. Russell, Miss
O'Leary and Mr.. Lawton and we're
much appreciated. A whistling solo
with banjo accompaniment, by Frank
Lawton, won the gentleman much
praise. The cast was as follows:
