relative To the next place Of meeting.
There is practically no opposition to
the present slate of officers and II is
| expected they will be reelected.
Detroit and Escanaba are rivals for
the honor of entertaining the next
! biennial location, with the odds ia
voring Detroit, because of its geo.
graphical location and the fact ii is one
of the orders strOngholds i'm this state.
In fact it is intimated that Escanaba's
| entry into the race is more for the
purpose of attracting attention with n
View of landing the 1913 convention
| than with the hope of securing that Of
1916.
This afternoon, by special permission
of General Manager James Mac
! Naughton. the delegates will be taken
on sight seeing tour of the G. & H.
mines, shops and surface workings and
the stampmill and smelling depart
ments.
Tomorrow morning at 1880 o'clock
the delegates To the Hibernian and
Auxiliary conventions will assemble
at the Red Jacket town hall for the
convention photograph.
No special activity has been planned
for this evening and because OF the
rather strenuous program of activities
it is felt that all of the visitors will en-
joy a rest.
Socially the big joint conventions of
the llibernians and Auxiliary are
proving very successful The grand
ball held in the Calumet Light Guard
armory last evening was one of the
most delightful ever attempted in this
city. The attendance taxed the capa-
ely of the spacious hall, and by includ-
ing in the proSram some Of the popular
old time dances, as well as the dances
of the present day. the enjoyment Of
every guest was made complete The
&. d II. orchestra provided a splendid
program for this occasion. The arm
DRY has been very attractively decorat-
ed, the national colors and the green
so dear To the sons and daughters of
Erin, being especially conspicuous.
Michael T.. Powers of Grand Rapids
and Miss IL. A. Mahoney of Laurium,
past presidents Of the respective or
CARNATIONS and the latter national
vice president, led the grand march
which was a very pretty feature.
The electric decorations are of a
very elaborate nature. During some of
the dances, the only illumination of the
hail was from green lights outlining
the harp of Erin. In other numbers,
the green light was reflected through
out the room, and in some the hall
glowed in the warmth of the red, white
and blue lighting effects.
Tomorrow evening the entertain
ment committee has provided a big
banquet for the entertainment of their
guests and for the local public in gen.
eral. This also will be at the Calumet
Light Guard Armory, preparations
having been made to accommodate in
the neighborhood of 500 persons.
