 as to have the privilege of witnessing the bull fight. The gentlemen of the parry were the following: H. E. Lean, merchant. Ironwocd; Carl Theile, pho togi apher. Duluth; Charles HusteG. real estate and insurance agent, Du luth.
 The greater number of the excursion ists are being cared for at the Cop per Queen Hotel. They are all in want of rest after long journey oi five days, and if the best acccmmoda tions avail, the entire party will doubt less be refreshed so that in a day O; two the members will be pleased to occupy their time in inspecting the mines hereabouts.
 Fred c. Hagen. formerly correspond ent for the Daily Mining Gazette, Hcrghton, Mich. gave the Daily Re view reporter the following interest ing description of the excursion party's trip. Mir. Hagen joined the party at Kansas City on Thursday, having left Chicago on Wednesday night He said:
 When we left Northern Michigan, the ground there was covered with a; least five feet of snow, and there were excellent chances for a continuance of gloomy weather which has prevail ed up i'll that country i.r the most part of the past three months Ev erybcdy of the party was glad to board the train with the thoughts of speed ing away to q climate of sunshine an6 warmth. And I can say that none of hem have been disappointed with the weather in Arizona
 From Northern Michigan to Kan. sas City there was but little change in climatic conditions, though, of course, there was a great deal more snow in the far north than in the Central States. An unusual occurrence took place in Southern Iowa a day previ. ous to the time we passed through the State. 4 sleet and rain storm had aged over an area of about one hun dred miles, and caused such condi. ton as is very seldom witnessed, that is. the storm was about the limit. and left the telephone and electric wires covered with a greater amount cf ice than ever chung to them before as re. suit of a similar storm in previous years.
 'Icicles averaging six inches in n-fr- t,Dtr oh through hung from the wires. and veg etation and everything else was GOV cred with a thick and glassy coat Stout trees were borne to the ground under the heavy burden of ice, and much damage was caused 10 orchards throughout that district.
 We saw no more of snow or sleet after leaving northern Missouri until We reached the highest point through the mountains in New Mexico. There the snow was about three inches deep, but after two-hour ride there was no more sign of the beautiful which term Michigan people apply to snow The trip through New Mexico and Ari Zona was delightful but for the incon venience and annoyance caused by re. peated delays, which, however. could not be avoided.
 Altogether the journey seemed a brief one to the entire party, though we covered about seventeen hundredl miles. The five days trip wrought g great and pleasant change. as we were taken from a climate where the temperature was about twenty below zero the day we left, with five feet of snow on the ground, and over head skies which gave forebodings of evil things, to land of sunshine and mild temperature. The change was one we all enjoy, and it will be with reluc tance that many of us will leave this delightful climate for Michigan"
