The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1906-08-25

Rev. Calvin M. Thompson, OF
Marquette, for the past six years
presiding elder Of the Marquette
district of the Methodist Episcopal
church, was in attendance at the
annual campmeeting, held in
Pequaming, and Sunday afternoon
presided at the fourth quarterly
conference meeting, which is the
last official visit he will make here
as his term OF presiding elder will
expire at the conclusion Of the
present conference year.
There is probably no clergyman
in the upper peninsula better known
or more highly respected than Rev.
Thompson, and his retirement as
presiding elder causes deep regret.

HsRALDED WITH DELIGHT.
Recital BY Talented Musicians Being
Looked Forward To With Great
Anticipation. Biography OF
Artists.

The announcement ia last week g
issue of The SENTINEL to the effect
that the music lovers Of L'Anse and
vicinity would be given a grand
musical feast, has been heralded
with considerable degree Of
delight, and it is with feeling Of
satisfaction on the part OF the
management that it is able to offer
to the public such splendid attrac-
tion at the opening OF the theatrical
season.
That the public may become ac-
quainted from amusical standpoint
with the artists who are to appear
in this recital, perhapsit would be-
well to publish a brief musical
biography OF each.
Mr.. Edison W. Morphy, violin
virtuoso, is a graduate of the New
England Conservatory of Music, Of
Boston, Mass. For o number OF
years he was tutor in the Normal
Conservatory Of Music, Potsdam,
N. Y. For three consecutive years
he was at the head OF the Halifax
Conservatory of Music, Halifax,
Nova Scotia. During the open sea-
son Mr.. Morphy appeared in classic
concerts in many OF the leading
cities OF United States and Canada.
He has just returned from Paris,
France. and will be heard in this
concert fresh from the hands of that
world famed violinist, M. Paul
Viardot.
Mr.. Alvin E. Gillett, baritone,
understudy of the celebrated tutor,
DR.. Chase, Chicago, needs but little
introduction, having already ap-
peared in classical recital greatly to
the satisfaction OF his hearers. His
return will be heartily welcomed.
Mr.. w. E. Sackett, pianist, copes
to us in similar phase as does Mr..
Morphy, viz: fresh from the fields Of
classical music. Mr.. Sackett was
for ten consecutive years one of the
leaders of that famous musical in
stitution "The New England Con-
servatory Of Music. " His reputation
as soloist is irreproachable.
The colossal character and techni-
cal difficulties Of the piano parts
especially to the sonata and con-
certo, which are to be rendered up
on this occasion, demand in their
per formance skill and mastery of
the accompanying instrument. For
this work Mr.. Morphy has secured
a worthy compeer in Miss Helen M
Theobald, OF St. Louis.
To the public Mr.. H. N. Aldrich,
tenor, needs no introduction, his
worth as a vocalist in musicals Of
this nature being already we'll es-
tablished, and it is safe prediction
that the mixed quartette under his
direction, and the able,assistance OF
such pleasing vocalists as Miss
Agnes Aurelia Murphy and Miss
Emma d. Menge. results Of the most
satisfactory nature may be looked
for in this part of.the program,

DESIRES EXCELLENT
GRAIN EXHIBIT.
Superintendent Of Grain Department
Of Copper Country Fair Requests
Farmers to Make Excellent
Grain Showing.

Hon. o. w. Robinson, OF Chassell
superintendent OF the grain depart
ment OF the Copper Country Agri
cultural Fair, comprising the
counties of Baraga, Ontonagon,
Houghton and Keweenaw, to bt
held in Houghton, September 25th
to 29th, in the following communi
cation makes an urgent appeal tc
farmers in the four counties, 70 put
fourth every effort to make the
grain exhibit this year one that will
surpass anything heretofore at
tempted.
Following is Mr.. Robinson's COM
munication:
Editor L'Anse Sentinel:
Having consented to act as
superintendent OF the Grain Depart
ment at the coming Copper Country
Agricultural Fair, to be held at
Houghton, September 25th to 29th,
I am desirous of seeing an exhibit
in that line that will do credit to
our grain raisers, and represent the
merits of the Copper Country as a
grain raising field. / am aware no
better wheat, barley, oats, rye and
other cereals are grown in the North
west than are produced each year
within the limits Of the four counties
embracing the Copper Country
Agricultural Society. Yet at our
previous fairs.the grain exhibit has
been small and inferior-by nc
means doing justice to the farmer
or the country.
What desire to see at this fair il
not only meritorious, but an ex.
tensive display OF ALL kinds OF grair
and grasses. 1t is up to the farmers
of Ontonagon, Baraga, Houghtoi
and Keweenaw counties to put uE
such an exhibit. They have th'
grain, and the greatest pains will b.
taken by the Grain Department tc
make conspicuous and attractive
exhibit If the farmers will do theil
part by furnishing the wherewitl
to do it. Now is. the time (when th'
harvest is on) to select the grain in
tended to be exhibited in the stool
or sheaf. etit be well selected a
to length OF stock, put up in attrac
tive sheaves of good size ant
securely bound with cord. Grail
fexhibited In the kernel should b.
well cleaned aud put up in attractive
packages; il in bags, the bag
should be OF white cotton. 1t will
be noticed by reference to the prem
ium list OF 1906 that peas and bean
are also in the Grain Department
l hope for an excellent exhibi
in this line.
Soliciting the cooperation OF tn
farmers in furnishing abundan
material Il know they have it,)
pledge myself to do my part in put
ting up GRAIN EXHIBIT that will b
attractive and meritorious. Le
there be a lively competition; Civ
us an abundance, and of your best
and we will do the rest.
/ Sincerely,
o. w. ROBINSON,
Supt. Grain Department. Cope

INTERNATIONAL CHESS.
Schroeder Cannot Represent Col1tm-
E,iG an Coming Match.

r Schroeder who represented Columbia. on the
first board in the recent intercollegiate chess match
between Yale, Harvard, Columbia and Princeton
may not be able TO play in the coming international
tournament between the four American colleges
and oxford and Cambridge. Schroeder's place at
the first board would insure his position on the
international team, but according to the rules gov
erning the contest only those men who have been
matriculated less than four years are eligible
Schroeder has been at Columbia five wears.
This means that either Columbia will have no
representative on the nterna tonal team else
that Schceder's place will be taken by Wolff or
Brown neither Of whom has showed up well
Colunba's first man The makeup Of the Ameri-
can team was partly decided meeting of
the intercolleg ate teams held at the time Of the
recent contest The Harvard delegates n.aintained
that the team should be composed of the first
hoard men and two others to be selected from the
two colleges who stood first IN the contest.
This was opposed by Yale and Columbia, which
wanted the international team composed of the
four first board men and the two second board men
who made the best showing in the tournament.
When the matter put TO a vote the Columbia
contingent withdrew because only three of their
represent atives were present. BY the help of
Princeton the Harvard plan was carried.

be the three first board men, p ". Bridgeman.
