Wnatever may be sad 0f the relative
advantages 0t the various northern re-
sorts. ltcauuos be denied tnat there are
certain charms u the scenery oE Ilne
Lake noE ioaad elsewhere ga ths Miga-
zan shores. While MF. and Ms. L hl
WeEe pointing out fgou various poats
of observation the beauties az Char
/ leVolx, the hcFn sounded for dinner AZ
/ tie club house, aud the party We're %
be the guests or the mayor anu hls vile.
/ The club house WAS closed for tie ct-
son and the dinner MAS said 10 be an I'M
prOyised one. IA a sense, butnct q Grand
Rapids Ofllcial could tell where tAe i'm
prOYIsati0n came Ia. The printed menu
was as full as the most expectaat epl-
cure could have desired, and what it
/ called Tor Was exqu.s.tely served.
Large bouquets graced the tables and
button holes" We're az ali the Plates.
The bouquets OF begOuias were excep-
| tonaliy choice. and came from the
greenhouse OF +. j. Mech, OF Char
levoix. TINS gentleman mas made a
| kind o. speciality of this Hover, and Il
is stated that lie has made phenom-
email success n their cultivation. The
bulbs were imported from Holland, and
be has cultivated many varieties from
| tie seeds.
/ An alter-dinner speech from Mayor
| [ hl welcomed the party with cordial
/ Ivy, and thanked the officials for the
; acceptance of tho mayors invitation,
/ when 50 many others had had to be de-
| cllned. Alludlng % the WINE list on the
| reverse side OF the menu card, the
| mayor alluded 10 the temperate habits
of the officials, and stated that he
would not offend by offering anything
stronger than what was provided by
| Nature herself. The party then retired
! 70 tie mayors cottage TO enjoy cigars.
| The time of sojourn at CharleyOiX
Was limited 20 two hours, and the an
nouncement OF "all aboard" was made
very shortly after dinner. The trip
| hack TO Traverse City on The City OF
Grand Rapids was repetition OF the
| delight of the morning trip. The mayor
and his family, who return u the city
! for the winter, were with the party
! from Charleyoix. Arthur II. Clark,
/ Grand Lecturer +. and A. ". for MichI-
gan and Past Grand Master, was pas
senger on The CIty of Grand Rapids"
| VINO ever heard an Indian laughl
Some have gone so far rs TO say that
nature never gave an Indian any laugh
| ing machine. True or false, there 3
enough in 1t TO prove that a crowd of
white men who have had fun enough
| 10 make ~ aeOrigne pump himself and
| get the Mysteries, are no funeral pro-
| CesslOn. Aboard the Grand Rapids was
| an Ottawa Indian, named John Jacobs.
| OF NoTthport. He IS a Methodist minis
| ter, VINO ministers TO congregation of
/ CIghty-five, and looked like q piece of
carved granite till the concert began in
| the afternoon. The accompanying IN
strUments were "D0ug's" fiddle and 4
/ guitar. Mr.. Indian looked on amazed
during the first number. Then. in the
! second, ne looked amused. Finally,
| I a
| unbuttOned one vest button, like one
preparing for the $50 far and vet so
near" Charley song was "I'm Doctor
! Izenbath, Zillewillewck Tum Bum. F"
/ Then the Reverend Mr.. Jacobs mouth
began to QuivCr, and then 10 play POM
| pom pullaway with the rest OF bls face.
| Nheu Charley had finished hIs song,
/ the red man was hanging across the
back OF his char, truly paraiyzed
preacher. An Indian never laughs?
