Midway Plaisance at the Rink.

One of the most agreeable and
entertaining public amusements
that has been given in the city,
was the Midway Plaisance, arrang-
ed at the rink by the ladies Of the
Congregational church, on Friday
and Saturday evenings of last week
and Saturday afternoon. 1t was
admirably designed, and we'll worth
a visit.
As person entered the rink he
saw a lively scene before him, and
one that could not fail to bring a
pleased look to his features. On
the right was a finely constructed
japanese booth, where many articles
could be purchased of the fair at.
tendants. The next was a magnif-
icent Russian booth, and then a
pretty and tastefully decorated booth
where delicious coffee could be OBJ
tanned at fair prices. The next was
the japanese village, in which were
several children dressed in the cos
tune of the country, and who gave
pleasing entertainments at short
intervals. The visitor now arrived
at the entrance to the street Of Cairo,
and five cents purchased an admis-
sion. The street was as good an
imitation of the one at Midway as
could be expected, and was well
worth visiting. In it were Turks,
Turkish ladies, bazars, a fortune
teller, and two little Shetland ponies
that were made to serve as donkeys.
Those who designed the street and
constructed it deserve much praise
for the work they did. Continuing
the tour a group of Brownies came
to view, and a more lively place
could not be found. The antics Of
the little folks were so amusing
that there was always a crowd of
pleased spectators in front. The
Moorish palace was the next place
for the visitor, being beautifully
designed, and received much praise
from those who visited it. It was
easy to tell the next place from the
war whoops of those inside, indicat-
ing plainly where the Indian village
was located. In the Enclosure were
erected several wigwams, and among
the residents could be found many
noted representatives of the red man.
The village and its gaudily dressed
inhabitants were a source of great
amusement, and many a shout of
merriment rang from that part of
the Midway. A visit to the ostrich
farm ended the sight seeing on the
lower floor. The makeup of the
ostriches reflect much credit on
those who superintended the work,
and made q notable exhibit.
Alpena argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1893-1909, 1893-10-25

In the upper room was the inter-
national congress of beauty, con-
sisting of many ladies dressed in the
costumes Of the various countries of
the world. At the entrance ma
tive of Scotland welcomed the
crowds of visitors with lively music
from the bag pipes.
About ten o'clock Saturday even
ing every one in costume formed
in parade and marched several times
around the rink, thus giving the
spectators a good chance to see
Midway's inhabitants. There were
Turks, Moors, japanese, Indians,
ostriches, women of all nations and
Brownies, and the picture they pre-
scented as they marched around the
rink was worth the price of admis-
sion alone.
On the main street of Midway
were Columbian Guards, palaquin
bearers, rolling chairs, donkeys. ETC.,
and the scene bore a remarkable re-
semblance to the real Midway, with
It's noises, music, war whoops, and
great variety of costumes worn by
those who wandered about the
floor.
The attendance was large. and the
Congregational society must have
cleared over 800, besides which
many hundreds of people were given
an entertainment Of pleasure at light
expense to the spectator.
To erect Midway as it was, took
a great amount of work on the part
of those who got up the entertain
ment, but they have the. gratifica-
ton of knowing they made a sue
cess and furnished the people with
very pleasant evenings enjoyment.

The sulphite paper pulp factory
of Geo. N. Fletcher 4 Sons was set
to work Monday morning, the first
in three months, it having been
closed owing to the firm being un-
able to sell the pulp as fast as man
ufactured. Since the closing most
of the pulp that was in the store
house has been shipped. The wash
room machinery will not be in
operation until the latter part of
the week, as several days time are
required to saw the wood and boil
it in the digesters. The saving
machinery is first operated, then
follows the boiling of the wood in
the acid, and last Of all is the work
done in the wash room. We hope
the factory will be steadily run all
winter.
