The above scores we're made at 200 yards
with Springfield guns, but they do not show
up to much advantage with the pistol prac-
tice had by the same shooters. 1t has been
the custom to score pistol-shootiDg al forty
yards on the same basis as rlfie-shootlng at
200 yards. To show how unjust this Is for
the rifempn. Captain Cook had little
pistol practice by members OF his company.
A Jew of them had never shot revolver,
and Captain Cook said 1t was the second
time he had ever shot one. The revolver
was the regulation IS caliber S. q w used
in the army. The scores were as follows:

unjust for the riflemen, and shall night TO

@. H. Warren's New Store.

Geo. ii. Warren has moved his stock
of millinery, dry goods, carpets, etc., to
his new quarters in the Beebe block.
The store fronts both on Washington
avenue and Second street, and is one OF
the most pleasantly situated in the city.
The front is nearly all plate glass, and
thus the interior is beautifully lighted.
The plate glass lights are said to be the
largest there are in any store in northern
Michigan. The interior is well arraAged
for the display OF goods. In the base
ment is comfortable room used for the
display Of carpets, rugs, cloaks, curtains,
etc. II is also well lighted. Both rooms
are heated with steam. In fact the store
is surpassed by none as regards appear
ance, light, and a corps of smiling young
ladies are in attendance to render SER
vice to customers.

times. Rev. II. n. vanAuken delivered
tho invocation, then tho quartet club
rendered IAN Hour With Thoe," after
which the acting Grand master Clark
delivered a long and able address on
Masonry. He began with tho history OF
tho fraternity at the building OF King
Solomon's temple, and traced-the history
Of Masonry down to tho present, showing
what good work had resulted from tho
Masonic society, and Of the brotherly
principles OF the order.
The concluding part Of the program
consisted Of solo, Marie" by Miss
Small and Mr.. Parish, and a song,
Brothers Good Night" by tho quartet
club. Notice was then given that tho
banquet was roady for the guests, and
soon after tho banqueting hall doors had
been opened, every one Of the 100 seats
was occupied, and that number Of persons
were busily engaged with tho bountiful
banquet spread before them. Members
Of the Commandery served as walters
and did their work nobly. About 100
persons had to wait for the second table,
but hearing the sound Of music coming
from the second floor, most Of them went
there. In the Wilkinson hall, and Just
beneath the reception room, the floor had
been prepared for dancing, an orchestra
engaged, and thus while the guests at
the first table were being served, those
who were waiting passed the time very
pleasantly with waltz and quadrille.
AS soon as the first table guests had
been served, the walters set to work to
get ready for the second table, and so
admirably did j. G. Walker and his lieu
tenants do their work that In only half
an hour all the dishes had been washed,
the tables reset, and supplied as bounte-
ously as before, and at least $50 guests
assembled at the tables. The banquet
was admirably arranged, the coffee and
eatables first class, and 80 plentiful that
after 300 people had supplied the demands
Of their appetites, there was an abundance
Of food left.
Dancing and other amusements were
kept up until late hour, and then the
guests went home, all we'll pleased, and
feeling that the time had been we'll
spent. 1t was one of the most enjoyable,
harmonious and pleasant social affairs
ever in Alpena.
The entire cost Of the temple and fur
nishing is between eight and nine thous-
and dollars. The carpets for the parlor
and lodge rooms cost three dollars per
yard.
The oak finish was done by j. M. John
ston; the gas fixtures and pipes were put
in by G. Parks Warner & Co. supplied
the chandelier and gas fixtures; j. j.
Cathro did the decorating the steam
pipes and radiators were put In place by
w. II. Campbell; and Hawley & Fitz.
gerald furnished and made the carpets
which are the finest ever brought to this
city, and harmonic with the furniture
and surroundings In every particular, re.
fiecting much credit on the firm as to
judgment and taste.

The Legislative fishing committee ar
rived here Saturday night on their junk
citing pleasure trip. The members went
through the form Of visiting the United
States hatchery here, and then passed the
balance Of their time the best way they
could until Monday morning when they
left. The tourists brought along with
them the State fish car Attikumaig, but
for what purpose we do not know, unless
1t was for style. The members would
have served the people far better by re-
naming at Lansing, and doing the work
they were elected to do. The pleasure
trips at the expense Of the people ought
to be put an end to.

Dedication of the Masonic Temple.

The 30th of January will be memoir
able one in the history OF the Masonic
societies Of Alpena, and the event con-
nected with it will remain fragrant in the
memories Of the members of the frater-
nifty. Then it was that they impressive
ly dedicated their new home, one CON-
pletely owned by them. The memorable
event was made the occasion for pleas
ant social time, and not wishing to rejoice
alone, they invited their wives, daughters,
sisters and best girl to be present and
enjoy socialities Of the evening. The
result was that over three hundred citi-
zens were agreeably entertained, and
passed the greater part Of the night in a
most friendly and enjoyable manner.
In past years the question of erecting
temple Of their own was often discussed
by the fraternity, but no definite action
was taken until few months ago, when
Alpena lodge, No. 100, +. and A. NJ, and
Thunder Bay Chapter, No. "A, II. A. NJ,
were incorporated for the purpose of
erecting and owning a temple. Stock, to
the amount OF several thousand dollars
was subscribed for by members Of the
order. Officers were elected, and q
building committee appointed to make
the necessary arrangements, who entered
into contract with DR.. Wilkinson,
whereby they were to add third story
to the block he was erecting on Second
street. The agreement was that the
Masonic Association was to own the en-
tire third story, extending over three
stores. The price they were to pay for
their part of the erection of the building
was agreed upon, and when that work
was done and the roof on, the committee
took charge and completed the work Of
fitting up the various rooms, decorating
and diminishing them. How well the build
ing committee did the work allotted to
them, can readily be seen by an examina-
ton Of the various rooms OF the temple,
They are admirably arranged for the
purposes intended; they are beautifully
decorated and furnished; the ventilation
is perfect, and the result Of their plan and
supervision is an architectural structure
OF which the Alpena Masonic fraternity
are Justly proud. OF the building CON-
mittee j. g. Walker, j. N:Kelley, and
+. G. Holmes devoted all immense
amoIint Of time and labor to the work.
The 30th Of January was the day fixed
upon for the dedication. AS not over
400 persons could be comfortably enter
tanned, IL was found to be impossible TO
invite citizens, not Masons, and for the
same reason but few invitations werc
sent to masons In other towns. The
Masons Of .Alpene. with their ladies',
were numerous enough to I'll the temple
II oil were present, so theinvitations had
to be confined to members OF the frater-
nifty.
