Chicago Fire.

The most remarkable art produc
ton of modern times is said to be
the new Cyclorama of the Chicago
Fire located on Michigan Avenue,
in that enterprising city. The great
work is reported to have cost nearly
a quarter of a million of dollars, and
shows in very realistic and wonder
full manner the great fire Of 1871.
The observer is placed in an ele
waited position on the site Of old Fort
Dearborn, Immediately south Of the
Rush St. Bridge, and from this his
toric spot views this grand and awe
inspiring scene. To the southwest
lies the business portion of the city,
a smouldering mass of red hot ruins,
the great north side is a sea of
flames, while along the lake shore
are two or three streets that are
doomed, but not yet destroyed, Civ
ing here a glimpse of the old Chi
cago of ante-hre days. The scene
along the lake shore in and about
the old U. S. Marine Hospital and
the Rush Street Bridge is one OF in
descrlbable coniusion-thousands Of
helpless and homeless in wild and
furious flight for safety. The whole
effect is sublime and awful in the
extreme.
Unusual care was taken to make
this grand work worthy of the SUBJ
ject, and above all, to have it his
torically correct. Professor David
Swing and other eminent authorities
pronounce the whole faithful por-
trayal OF this great historic event. 1t
will remain as one OF the sights of
the city until after the Worlds Fair.

just finished making a republican and they
had made a good job. The boss workman
said well done. Then the boss workman
said, ''what have you got in those packages
there on the grOundp" One large package
was marked 'Tammany hail." one was
marked "Copperhead" one ''saloon." one
"Vallandinghamism, and one free trade"
There were several other mean looking
packages also on the ground. ''Well," said
the boss workman, put them in the mill
and see what we can make out of them."
The boss said, ''hOld on there, what is that
very small package that is out there?" 1t
was marked ''honesty" "Well," said the
bosss, ''put it in the mill with the other
stuff and grind it all up together" The
boss said, "while the mill is grinding, pass
around the Jug" After the grist was
ground and the thing was made, the boss
workman looked at the thing and then said,

The State Encampment.

The state military board met at the Light
Infantry Armory Detroit, Saturday after
noon and decided unanimously to recon-
mend to Gov. Winans that Island Lake, on
the Detroit, Lansing Il Northern road, be
selected as the site for the state encamp-
ment this year. The dates agreed upon are
Aug. II to %. All of the members of the
board were present, with Edwin f. Conely
in the chair. The recommendation pract-
cally means that Island Lake is selected, as
the governors in the past have invariably
designated the place selected by the military
board.
The Island Lake camping grounds are
about two miles from Brighton, and are the
same grounds where the camp was held sew
eral years ago. They are high and dry
with abundance of water convenient. All
the older members of the military cOmpan-
les remember them favorably. One mem
Der of the board said that the grounds are
the best ever selected in Michigan for a
camp. No other business was transacted
by the board.
