Serenade.
We stop the press to announce that The

rich musical treat from the Canton Band,
visiting this city to-day.
Gentlemen, wo thank you sincerely for the
compliment, and trust that your trip to

A Rare Cliance.
Mr. Nourse, of Moline nursery fame
will have this evening at Beoeston s
drug store in this city a
nicht blooming Cereus, which will
open out in full blossom during the even
ing, me rarity ot witnessing such a
spectacle ought to call out a crowd, it being
well known that it is one of the very few
flowers which ever bloom at night, and to
those who have never seen this flower it
will be an object of unusual interest.
Excursion front Canton.
About 1 o'clock an excursion of about
300 persons arrived by special train from
Canton, III., via the T. P. & W., and P. &
Pk. I. railroads. The excursion was ac
companied by the Canton Cornet Band,
one of the finest musical organizations io
the state. The band consists of 14 pieces
under the leadership of Samuel Lowry, an
experienced musician, and said to be one ot
tho best instructors in Illinois.
The excursion was io charge of George
A. Black, Esq., and was one of the largest
that has visited this vicinity this season.
The Harper House provided dinner for
100 of tho party besides the band.
After dinner the band discoursed some
excellent music in front of the Harper
House and then marched to Court House
square where they gave a fine instrumental
concert. Everybody united in declaring it
one of thever? best musical organizations
that has ever visited this city.
The excursion was gotten up for the
benefit of the band which is an institution
which the citizens of Canton are particu
larly proud of and they well may be too,
tor it is unquestionably a first class combi
nation.

What was the Trouble witb. Hayes.
On Wednesday, the presidential party,
now swinging round the circle in tne
Eastern States, attended the commence
ment exercises at old Harvard College, and
among the persons called upon for a
speech at the Alumni Dinner exercises was
the Acting President, Mr. Hayes. The
Associated Press telegraphs:
"Mr. Hayes arose with apparent diffi-
jence
He was evidently laboring under
intense emotion. When he bad obtained
sufficient control of his feelings to enable
him to proceed, he said briefly and with
evident difficulty" &o.
Now the question is what was the trou
ble, and what were the peculiar circum
stances attending such a situation which
should give him the appearance of laboring
a I m frtioA e mAimn" an'i Aonoa rum
UUUVl 1UICUOQ CUIUVIVU CUJ1 VUUJU ualu
to speak briefly and with evident dim
culty." No doubt an occasion of so much
intellectual entertainment caused "a flow
of reason and a feast of soul," but Heaven
forbid the thought that there was anything
in either the edibles or potables which
could have induced such remarkable emo
tions, such extreme diffidence, or such
lack of mental control.
The classic shades of Harvard is where
reason is supposed to sit emnroneci
in sereue and undisturbed majesty;
What then was wrong? Was intellec
tual greatness and the Olympian air of
the Hub too overpowering, or was the
afternoon too warm and sultry, or did
Hayes simply feel out of place in such an
assemblage.
We would really like to know what
ailed him, because we want the benefit of I
his preat name in behalf of TemDerance.

way Grant used to be affected on similar
occasions, and we really cannot bring our
selves to think that it was a like cause in
both men which produced such similar
effects.
Still Another Flan.
On the second page of this paper is an
article containing suggestions on bonding
our outstanding city orders. The article
suggests six per ceut. as the rate of interest
these bonds should bear. This is all that
it should be, with no cost for placing the
bonds, and they should not be sold less
than par. Chicago has funded a portion
of its debt in six per cent, bonds which
were sold at three per ceot. premium,
and that city, in regard to the constitu
tional limits is in a worse condition than
Rock Island.
Another plan of satisfying objection to
the legality of issuing bonds is that the
board of supervisors shall raise the assess-
mom. rh rnA t tl, o'ltv oh on
" I
rt S-f. ! ii w- 4- a mII Mmaklmv A Attn astitk hA

other townships. This plan has it objec-
tion hut it ia well for citizens interested to
consider every suggestion that can be
made. Something must be done with this
subject. If this plan is adopted, we
believe the board of supervisors will do
all that is desired of them. They are all
business men and will readily recognize
the importance of raising no trifling objec
tion to assisting our city council in settling
this troublesome question. The council
should obtain some assurance or co opera
tion iroui members ot the board ot super
visors before adopting either of the plans
suggested. In the mean time let those
who are interested in this question get out
their tax receipts and do a little honest
figuring on these plans, bearing io mind
the very important fact that these out
stading orders are due, some of them
drawing compound interest, nod some day
must he paid.
New Masonic Lodge at Preemption
As stated in The Akgcs a special car
left this city last evening, over the Mercer
county road, for Preemption, having on
board about 40 members of the Masonic

The advent of this magnificent establish

was beyond all doubts the great event of
this summer. Although expectation on
tip-toe looked forward for its appearance
with vast anticipation the reality lar out
shone all that the liveliest imagination had
depicted.

amented chariots led by
the great Golden Band Chariot drawn by
fourteen horses. Each of the tableau-ears
was ornamented with fine silken banuers
bearing heraldic devices. Next came the
HERD OF ELEPHANTS.
A herd of camels followed with that
look of supreme contentment which these
beautiful animals alone can assume when
brought into contact with the work of man.
Tney looked with the same indifference on
our Parliament buildings as thev dii thou

of Babylon, and with senile contempt for
the efforts of latter days, outdid even the
antediluvian elephant in styicism

curious little beast, with eyes on the top of
his head above its ears, enabling it to look
backward or forward without moving its
head.
THE MUSEUM 4

the center of the tent is a fountain of
water. Everything is exceedingly clean
and neat, uo swearing or disorderly person
