A Long Felt Want.

A Complete Dry Goods Store Such that Alma
May Feel Proud OF.
The store building lately vacated by
the Saginaw Store has been leased for a
term of years by the New York Dry
Goods Co. 1t will be stocked with a
complete line of dry goods, carpets,
cloaks, etc. A stock that will be the
largest ever shown in this place. AS to
its prices, the advantages which this firm
enjoys of buying from the manufactur-
ers and from the largest eastern markets
is sufficient that no house has sold goods
as cheap as this house will, and we are
safe in saying that in one years. time
the New York Dry Goods Co. will be a
household word in Alma and vicinity,
a friend Of everybody and the largest
house of its kind in this place. Will
compare with any store in the largest
cities. Opens October 9th.

College Opening.

The opening of the fall term Of Alma
college was attended by circumstances
unusually propitious. AS early as Sat-
urday the pioneers began to arrive in
person of members of the Y. NJ. o. A.
and Y. w. G. A. reception committees.
Throughout the opening days every
train brought its load Of students, over
flowing the ladies' dormitory and max
ing their presence we'll known all
through the town. The opening lecture
on Wednesday was given directly after
chapel exercises before the largest stu
dent audience ever assembled on an
opening day. Prof. @. A. Davis was
the lecturer and was introduced by Pres.
Bruske to lecture on the subject, What
l have seen, tasted, felt and smelt in the
wells of Michigan" The Professor 8
lecture was an admirable example Of the
scholarly and scientific method of treat
ing subject for which he is so well
known. Beginning with a history of
wells in general. tracing the develop
ment from the most efficient and health
full drive well, Prof. Davis next ex-
planned the work of the Michigan Geo.
logical survey on which he has been en-
gagged for several years. The main pur-
pose Of this commission is to investigate
the causes and suggest remedies for the
failing water supply which in some dis
tricts of the state has become quite
alarming. The remainder of the lecture
was chiefly composed of the Professor S
experience in the thumb of Michigan
and could not fail to be as instructive to
his audience as it was interesting.

Reception given last Monday night in Honor or
His return 10 Alma
On Monday evening last the members
of the NJ. L. church and those of the
other churches in Alma began to as
semble in the church early in the even
ing for the purpose of receiving the pas
tor, Rev. M. ID. Carrel, and giving tes-
timonial of their regard for him and his
estimable wife. In the last weeks local
papers invitation was given to the pub
lie in general and at eight o'clock, at the
time the program commenced the
spacious auditorium was nearly filled to
its utmost capacity. The church was
very prettily decorated with potted plants
and flowers. After an organ voluntary
by Miss Pringle, and hymn by the con-
gregation, Rev. Clough Of the Baptist
church was introduced by the chairman,
DR.. G. E. Pettyjohn, who spoke good
words of cheer to DR.. Carrel.
j. w. Holmes, chairman of the trus-
tees of the church was unable to be
present, but he sent letter welcoming
DR.. Carrel in behalf of the church, which
was read by DR.. Pettyjohn. After the
, vocal solo by Chas. +. Pettyjohn, DR.
II. +. Butler was introduced and spoke
at some length on the past years work
of the pastor and drew a very beautiful
picture of what the ensuing year might
| be. DR.. Clizbe next welcomed the pas
tor and spoke at length of the good work
done by him in the church. The quar-
tet composed of Mesdames Thompson
Pettyjohn and Mr.. Bradley and DR..
| Pettyjohn, next entertained the assem-
| bly, with a beautiful selection after
which Rev. Killeen of ST. Louis was in
troduced and spoke few words of con-
graduation to the pastor and congrega-
tion upon the return of DR.. Carrel to the
pastorate.
| Dr. Carrel then responded and spoke
very feelingly of the many kind words
extended to him by the pastors and con-
gregations of the various churches and
also of the welcome extended by the
people. After a reading by Miss Elean-
or M. HILL which was a rare treat for
every one, the congregation joined in
singing How Firm Foundation" and
benediction was then pronounced.
| Rey Carrel can truly say the glad
hand Of fellowship was extended to him
by the whole people.

New Department Store.

II, J. Vermeulen has been gradually
branching out in business since his re-
turn TO Alma, first adding several new
lines to his already well equipped gro
cery, and next putting in first class
stock Of clothing, shoes and gents furn-
ishings in the room next to the grocery
Mr.. Vermeulen has now
decided TO add first-class, up-to-date
stock of dry goods and ladies' furnish
ings in the store building recently vaca-
ted by the "94 Cash Store" and with
this end in view has gone to New York,
accompanied by Mrs. Vermeulen, and
A. Ronk of Lansing Mr.. Ronk is
well known to Alma people, by acquaint-
ances formed while he was in the dry
goods business here and the fact that he
will select the goods for Mr.. Vermeulen
will insure a we'll selected stock. An
archway has been cut through the parti-
ton and now all three stores are
directly connected, making in reality
one large store occupying the entire
block. A gentleman of experience
will be put in charge of the new de-
partment and employ lady clerks foi the
balance of the clerking force. Mr.. Yer
meulen also expects to add line OF
crockery and glassware TO his grocery
department, and the entire business will
be conducted under the name of "Alma
Department Store"
