proof of the popularity of the move.

cellence Of the location for such an
event. Every one withdrew at the
close satisfied that there were super

FIRE!-About day break last
Sunday morning the rendering es-
tabishment of Mr.. John Hadfeld,
located near Whites warehouse,
east of the depot, was discovered
on fire. 1t had so far advanced as
to be beyond control, and the whole
was consumed. Mr.. Hadfield's loss
is estimated at about $1,000; no in
surance. About one-half the loss
consisted of stock ready for ship
ment, which was being held a few
days for better prices. 1t is a heavy
loss for Mr.. Hadfeld, one he can i'll
afford. The origin of the fire is the
supposed work of an incendiary, and
should the same be proven the guilty
party would likely wish himself in
the fire.
Corn, hay and small grain this
year in Wisconsin, will be the best
in yield ever known. Hay is fine in
every county, from the Mississippi
river to Lake Michigan. Cattle look
sleek, and feed will be plenty for
stock. Barley, oats and rye is a
m agnificent sight. Fall wheat will
average over 20 bushels per acre.
The farmers are busy, hopeful and
will have plenty of breadstuffs, if
they don't make a cent. If there
are no hail storms, or long continued
rains after the grain is in shock,
the quality will be A. No. l every
where. Corn is not quite SO far
advanced in central Wisconsin as
in the west, but is clean and has a
good color. With a fall free from
early frosts, Wisconsin farmers will
have more produce before next
November than ever in the history
of this state.
THAT frst-class cheese can be
made in this locality has been
proven, although we know not of
its being questioned. A Mr.. Won
zor, of Darlington, who buys for A.
H. Barber, of Chicago, on Monday
last visited the Mineral Point
cheese factory, located near J. b.
Wallis farm, for the purpose of
buying. He at once offered the
highest Chicago price and secured
about 500 pounds, the first output
of the factory. Mr.. Wonzor started
the first factory west Of Lake Mich
igan, and has been in the business
thirty years, and he assured the
gentlemen interested that their
product was equal to the best he
ever saw. This is indeed encourag-
ing to the parties who went into the
enterprise, and they are to be con-
graduated on securing such a com
petent maker-Mr. Weiting, Of Lodi.
They put up what is known as the
American cheese. 500 pounds Of the
sale were shipped from here Tues
day and the money paid over

PEABODY NORMAL INSTITUTED

Friday night last at the Augusta Street
church. the teachers of the Peabody Nor
NAL gave literary entertainment which
was very highly enjoyed by those present.
and possessed many very excellent and
striking points. The program consisted
of music, reading, Rotations, and essays,
and was rendered with great skill and
ability. Several white persons availed
themselves of the invitation to be present,
and all of them were delighted with the
entertainment. We must confess that
there was display of ability, power to
comprehend, and aptness and force in CIV
ing expression to thought, that greatly
surprised us. The development of the
colored race is problem, which can not
now be measured by past experiences. 1t
is one of the things upon which we must
pat iently wait, looking on the meantime
as those who must in no small measure
bear the responsibility for the work neces-
sary to be done in the progress of the ad-
yancement and improvement of this
people.
The programme opened with vocal
piece by the choir of teachers, followed
by prayer by the Rev. J, A. Holmes of the
Augusta Street M. E. Church. An ora
ton by Jas. H. Becks, who took for his
subject Cicero. and his influence on the
age in which he lived was replete with in
teresting historical and personal Incidents,
and was delivered in good and forcibe
style by the speaker.
The reading of ''Prymus and Phisben
by Miss Lucy J. Boulding, was as fine as
we have ever heard. The manner, the
infection of the voice, the clear enuncia>
ton, and perfect conception of all its parts
gave evidence of abilities of high order.
An essay by Miss B. T. Green, of Dan
vile, was very good. in thought, action,
and delivery.
The ''Seaboard Watch" duet. by Miss
Lucy J. Boulding and Prof. Davis of
Richmond, was decidedly good, and
brought down the house, all alike, white
and colored, insisting upon an encore. D.
Y. Carter, editor of the Normal Journal,
| read some very amusing editorial and
local hits at persons and things as they are
found in the Normal. Miss Lucy J.
Boulding sang, by request, Sweet birds. ,"
AT the close of the entertainment ice
cream and cake were furnished in the
basement of the church. We would ad-
wise all persons who feel any interest in
this work, to visit some of these exhibit
tiOns. Another one of similar character
will be given tomorrow night. We are
sure that all who attend Will be profitably
and pleasantly entertained. There are
daily exercises at the old Academy build
ing in the regular course of teaching, as
given in our public schools. All these ex-
ercises are given by the coloIed teachers
exclusively, and are highly instructive and
entertaining. The teachers. desire the
presence of as many of our white citizens
as can find it convenient to attend. They
feel that not only can they entertain them,
but also show them that their acquire
ments are both useful and substantial
We hope our people will visit the Academy
and witness these exercises.
