Our RoYs In RIue.

The following is taken from the Detroit
Evening News;
when the ID. 4 c. steamer City OF
Mackinac steamed TO her dock at the
| foot of Wayne street this morning she
looked like military transport ship.
| The decks were mass of blue, for pha-
lanx OF troops lined every railing and bull
wark. -Four companies OF the Filth Reg
iment IRON Calumet, Houghton, Iron
wood and Iron Mountain, and companies
from Cheboygan and Alpena made up a
quota OF more than 800 men. They were
in charge OF Col. +. b. Lyon, OF Calumet,
aud every company had its full compile
ment of officers except from Houghton,
which was commanded by tn second lieu
tenant.
The men made fine appearance as
they stood in masses about the decks.
Their uniforms were neat and their arms
and equipments in good order. What
particularly attracted attention was the
general fine physique OF the soldier boys
from the pine woods and the mines OF
the north. They are big-boned lot OF
fellows with very little supertluous flesh
about them, and look capable OF giving
a good account OF themselves in scrim-
mage.
I'm a country where the snow falls deep
legs should grow long, and there is not a
man in the crowd who needs TO stand on
his tiptoes to look over tall fence. The
famous Fifth Regiment band sccompan-
led the soldier boys, and will help TO
make things lively at camp.
"Only few OF the men who wanted
shaves left the boat at Wayne sereet.
The regiment remained aboard and was
taken to Twelfth street, where the d., l..
& y. train was waiting TO convey them TO |
camp.
ION their way down through Lake |
Huron last night. the band entertained
the 500 passengers aboard the steamer
with fine concert program. The pro- |
gram included the overture from Tan |
cred cornet duet, Fame and For
tune by A. Chaveriat and W. Ii. White; |
a selection from the Bohemian Girl a
trombone duet, Two Roses by Harry
King and d. Castel; descriptive piece. |
Indian War Dance, aud Sousa's King
Cotton march. The numbers were re |
ceived with hearty applause by the pas

when "In Old Madrid" was presented by
a competent company OF artists.
Mr.. Rice, the manager, deserves the
thanks OF the whole audience that il. if
there is any truth in the saving that a
hearty laugh ia better than much medi-
cine, Tor during the performance the audi
ence was kept in perfect good humor.
with occasional bursts OF laughter that
almost shook the roof; caused. not ONLY
by the plot of the play, but by the exces-
siye drollery OF Mr. Gerald Griffi q. in his
rendition OF the character "Don Jose"
During the evening Mr. Francis Jones
favored the audience with several songs,
that OF the Torreador being greatly ad.
mired. The characters throughout we're
admirably taken, and the NEWS can with
confidence recommend "In Old Madrid. ."

it's rendition in any Of the towns where
the company may appear will endorse
our recommendation, while those who do
not attend will surely lose rare treat.

failed to afford relief. She realized
that her death was but a question of
hours, and determined to signaliz0 her
last stay in Chicago by a visit to the
Pacific Garden Mission. While there
Mrs. Jes5up led the service, and many
came to the altar. While still speak
ing she referred to her own hopeless
condition, and she asked the prayers of
the mission in her own behalf. Joining
with them most earnestly. When she
arose to her feet she felt herself a
changed woman, and she returned
home entirely cured of her malady.
With her neighbors and friends, who
were familiar with her condition, her
recovery is little less than a miracle

Alliance Weekly was run under the
auspices of the State Alliance was
clearly too much, as, so far as I can
learn, the State Alliance never author
lied it.
Why should not the State Secretary,
who is paid a good salary for his SER
vices by the Alliance, try to unity the
Order by earnestly endeavoring to get
every member to take, pay for, and
read The PROGRESSIVE FARMER? And
then why should he not say what he
has to say to the brethren through it's
columns9 If the officers and members
expect unity in the Order, they must
unselfishly pull together. The columns
of The PROGRESSIVE FARMER stand
open to our brotherhood, and if there
is, orhas been, any cause for complaint,
or any other reason why the State Off
GERS should not use THE PROGRESSIVE
FARMER, then they ought to do the
management of the paper the brother
" kindness to inform them of the fact.
They are ready at all times to hear sug-
gestions, and will consider them when
properly presented from any source.
Any brother is asked by the manage
ment to write to Mrs. S. P. Polk, who
owns the paper, if they find the paper
is not run in the interest of the Order.

I see by a circular sent out from the
State Secretary's Office that Bro. w. s..
Barnes has sold out the Alliance Week
" to The Farm and Home Weekly,
and takes occasion to call on the breth-
rem to sustain the Farm and Home
Weekly, not even telling them who is
to run the paper nor even where it is
to be published. The fimsy excuses
given for starting the Alliance Weekly
will not hold water. There was no
necessity for it, especially as it claimed
to run under the auspices of the State

TO MEET AT AsHEv1LLE.

After Long Deliberation the Committee
of the Teachers Assembly Has De-
cided on a Meeting Place.
Asheville is the place.
The executive committee Of the
Teachers Assembly has decided to have
that body meet in the mountain me-
tropolis this year.
The North Carolina Teachers Assem-
bly, was formed at White Sulphur
Springs, near Waynesville, Haywood
county, June 10Th, 1884. The sessions
of 1885 and 1886 were held at Black
Mountain, Buucombe county. After
three years in the West, the place of
meeting was transferred to the East
Morehead City, where the teachers
have held their annual meetings for
nine consecutive years.
About 1889 a strong effort was made
to carry the Assembly back to the
West, but failed, since that time the
number of Western teachers in attend
ance has noticeably decreased.
The committee having the matter in
charge considered carefully the various
points suggested and the advantag es of
each. In addition to this the S cretary
sent out a large number of letters to
leading educators in all parts of the
State asking for an opinion as to the
most desirable meeting place for the
orOrooOb n o. rcaociOO MOro +hop %uo
thirds favored Asheville while the
others were divided among Mt. Airy,
Wilmington and Morehead.
AshevilIe has offered unprecedented
rates for the entertainment Of the
teachers and their friends. The Bat
terry Park hotel proposes to take them
at 50, while such hotels as the Swan
nanoa, Oaks, etc, have made a one
dollar a day rate. The boarding houses
offer the same, with five and six dol
lar weekly rate. Carriages have re
duced their fare to so cents for a half
day drive while the public hacks will
be at their service for Is cents. Many
points of interest can bereached by the
street car and dummy lines for five
cents.
The Official Bulletin will be issued
about April 18Th. 1t will contain a
number of cuts of the scenery in and
around the city, hotels, &C., also a list
of the hotels and boarding houses, loca
ton of each, how reached from the
depot and rate.
The program will be the most com
prehensive ever issued. Questions Of
general Importance in the educational
system will be carefully discussed by
able and experienced educators. An
effort has been made to introduce new
talent and a majority of the speakers
who will be invited have not appeared
before the Teachers Assembly for the
past few years.-N9ws and Observer.
