Alpena Gas Works.

With our sewers, paving, water
works, electric light, ETC., it would
seem as though we should have gas
works. We sec no reason why an in
vestment in n gas works here would
not be profitable. Every gas COM
pany in Michigan, that has been in
operation year, is paying to-day.
OF course the value of the gas plant is
determined by the size of the city, as
all cities consume gas about in pro-
portion to their size, but this is only
another proof that gas works in this
city would pay handsomely. There
arc dozen cities in Michigan having
less number of inhabitants, and
some of them have less than half rs
many inhabitants, all of which have
paying gas plants. This should con-
vince anyone of the value of a plant
here. An ordinance was given a
short time ago to the Alpena Gas
Company for building works here.
They have been unable to commence
work owing to their inability to Sc.
cure pipe, but they have been prom
ised their requisite amount in Sep

TENDER. p. L. De'Mill, who is to
build the works, is an experienced
builder and operator. He built the

the gas works at East Portland and
Astoria, Oregon, and rebuilt and ex-
tended those at Dallas, Texas, and

Sol Smith Russell in a New Play.

Sol Smith Russell, that comical
genius, whose easy going ways and
striking pecularities have made him
one of the most laughed at comedians
in the country, will play an engage
ment at the Opera House next Mon.
day and Tuesday evenings.
Sol Smith Russell is the superior OF
any person on the American stage in
the line of his specialties. This es-
innate of his talents is acknowledged
wherever he has delighted intelligent
audiences. "Felix McKusic" has
received most emphatic marks of pop.
ular approval. Mr.. Russell has got
hold of comedy thoroughly Amer.
lean in subject and treatment and
Astounding in well drawn characters
interesting incidents, and entertain.
ing. The steller role is admirably
adapted for the display of his unusual
talents, and is nightly provocative OF
shouts of laughter. In the line OF
what may properly be classified as re-
fined comedy, Sol Smith Russell has
no superior in this country. All
those who have seen him know that
his approximations are somewhat mar.
vclous. Loifg ago he won his way to
deservedly high place in the gen.
uine admiration of the American
public. A more remarkably many
sided man than Sol Smith Russell can
hardly be imagined. He has more
heads than company of actors us
ually number. No other man can
now be recalled who has in SO COM
plete development the faculty of met
amorphosis. Work of so true ring
and fine quality as his does not
pail it grows with acquaintance, and
Mr.. Russell has the good fortune to
be longed for.

The amount of lumber shipped
from the port of Alpena, from the
commencement of navigation, this
year, to July 31st, by vessels that re-
ported at the Custom House, was 49,
100000 feet. The amount shipped
last year, by vessels that reported up
to same date, was 81, $4,000 feet.
We believe more lumber was taken
from Alpena last year by vessels that
had through clearances, than this year.
A vessel with through clearance can
load at this port, but is not obliged to
report, consequently there is no record
of her cargo at the custom house here.
