A Rich Treat for Theatre aoers.

Manistee Democrat:-The rendition of
that inspiring play, "lngomar, or the Greek
Slave" by the Labadie Combination, at the
opera house, last night, was one of the very
best exhibitions of skilful acting we have
had here in long time. The character of
the piece is such that 1t calls for art of high
order, and the adaptabilty of the cast to the
work of presenting it in the most attractive
manner is unquestiOned. The rich mellow
voice and the graceful and impressive self
possession of Mr. Francis Labadie, together
with the queenly ease and charming elo-
quence of every act of Miss Hattie Rowell,
especially in the more affecting parts of the
play, indicated at once to the audience that
the highest talent and genius of the true
actor stood before them. The support in
the piece was in keeping with the power and
ability shown in the leading parts. In fact
it was difficult to see where any improve
ment could have been made. Mr.. Hubert
Labadie as "The Timarch," and Miss Jetta
Joss as "Actea the MOTHER" presented their
parts in the most admirable manner.

Fuller d Co., died at his residence on Ex-
change street, at $3.50 Thursday morning,

j. +. Mabin, county agent of the State
Board of Charities and Corrections, having
been succeeded by M. K. Miller, of this city,
Supt. Newkirk, of the State Public School,
in acknowledging the worth of his services
wrote Mr.. M. very flattering letter from
which we take the following:
81 have your favor of the 2Sth saying you
are no longer county agent. This Is sur
prise to me as had received no notice of
any change in your county.
l am very sorry to have you cease to be
agent during the time that / am superintend-
ent. have enjoyed your correspondence
and your reports of cases in your county. /
always felt that when you visited case and
made report of 1t that l had something
that gave me the exact condition of things.
You have been vigorous and fearless in the
prosecution Of your duties. and in no county
have / been more satisfied that the work was
being properly and thoroughly carried on
than in Shiawassee Co. do rot expect to
continue the work longer than the early part
of October myself but 1t would be sustain
ing influence to me If could have the old
faithful agents still on deck in the various
counties.
You have done noble work, and while
it may not be appreciated, undoubtedly will
not be appreciated by the public at large,
you have the satisfaction within your own
heart of having done good to the children
that have gone into your county and to the
homes In which they have been placed, and
you can retire with feeling of satisfaction
even II your pockets do not show the result
of your work to any great extent.

The charges of partisan influence

reasonable in his logic, he would not
dare to make such charges, when a
large percentage of those who were
most active in behalf of the Holbrook

rem, and Wise knows it. These false
positions of the whining baby of that

and sent out of existence beyond re-

pose in life is to look for the buttered

FOR THE WORLDS FAIR.
LAKE Crystal Mirror.I

The question whether the citizens
of the state Of Minnesota will come
forward in the glory of their pride and
swell the meagre appropriation of the
legislature for state exhibit at the
Worlds Fair to a sum necessary to
give the state that prominence which
the magnitude of her Importance and
the diversity of her products render
possible, is now on and cannot be too
thoroughly discussed. Without stop
ping to criticise the legislature for it's
crime against craftsmanship in its
lavish expenditures in small things
and it's eXecrable narrowness in dealing
with wide topics, let US see what the
status of the case actually is. The
world will judge of the different states
of America by the exhibits made at
the great fair. There is no politics in
it. The question is, shall we assume
our just position among the States of
the Union and hold our head up in
patriotic pride for our hearthstone, or
shall we meanly seek oblivion in COM
parative obscurity for the sake of a
few dollars? 1t is fair to presume that
the Worlds Fair commission of the
state of Minnesota are honorable and
capable men, no one has limited that
they are otherwise. Then shall we
better them with poverty and adver-
tise ourselves as a parsimonious COM
monwealth? God forbid. 1t is stated
that the Commission wants 500, 000by
popular subscription to enable the state
to make creditable showing, Let
them have it. The city of Minneapolis
will raise 100000 for the national Re
publican convention that will not last
over week; large expenditure it
would seem, and yet the city and the
state would be benefited to such an
extent as to render good returns for
the investment. If Minneapolis can
do that for the convention, the state
can certainly afford to raise like sum
to put Minnesota in the front rank in
the great procession of state exhibits
at the Worlds Fair.

In Kentucky the wheat is all in
shock. Little has been thrashed and
the quality of the crop is good. The
yield will be near an average. Buy
ers have been paying so cents, but
farmers are letting it go reluctantly.
Two-thirds of the winter wheat has
been thrashed from the shock in Tex
as. The average yield is from twelve
to fifteen bushels and testing sixty
one pounds.
In Central and Southern Minnesota
the wheat is heading generally. In
some section the early wheat is be-
ginning to fill. Farmers all report an
unusual stand of straw. The wheat
looks fine The month of June was
wet and cold and what strictly speak,
ing might be called ideal wheat
weather, and these conditions have
continued into July.
In Northern Minnesota the present
conditions are better in all respects
than they were year ago at this
time. Wheat has not headed yet.
Harvesting will probably begin about
the first week in August. Reports
from elevators in Iowa, Minnesota,
Nebraska,S. Dakota show wheat head
ed out in every section and in the ma
jority of cases has already commenced
to fill. There are no complaints of in
sects. The only fear now seems to be
of continuance of wet weather.
In South Dakota the early spring
wheat is headed but not the late,
which constitutes fully one-half of
the crop. In NorthS Dakota wheat
is heading nicely. The recent rains
have been sufficient to insure
good crop. More would have been in
furious. Weeds are thick in many
fields, but the stand of all grain is
heavy, SO that it may crowd out the
weeds. The growth of straw is heavy.
