PROFICIENT INDIANS.
An Enjoyable Entertainment by
Children of the AbOriSines.

A very novel, as well as interesting
entertainment was given at the Dayton
Avenue Presbyterian church last even
ing, by twenty-five Indian pupils of
the Good Will Mission, of Sisseton
agency, Dakota. This is Presbyterian
school and is supported by the home
Missionary board. At the request of
the management of the Minneapolis
Exposition, these pupils were brought
to that city and have given several en-
tertainments there TO the delight of all
in attendance. The exercises last even
ing consisted of songs, chOruSeS and
0uartetS, recitatiOnS and calisthenicS
with wooden dumbbellS. The aptitude
of these dusky children of the forest
was remarkable, and would have done
credit to the best pupils of our public
schools. They spoke the English Ian
guage almost Without an accent, and
re ndered their songs and recitatiOns in
such a manner as to evoke the hearty
applause of the large audience. One
little tot, girl not more than six years
of age, was the center of attraction and
admiration. She always took her place
in front when the class was called, and
though it was plain to be seen her eyes
were half closed from sleep, she did
everything the others did, and Just as
well, too. The organ accompaniment
was played by an Indian boy who was
assiS ed by Il classmate, who maIaged
to blow considerable Eusic out oil

The times are dull for reporters jus

city not far distant. as follows:

say. if you like, though, that l have

Not thing. The corn is growing
splendidly. I've been putting new

item"
Anything else?"
"Well, my brother from Ohio is visit

He Didn't Vote That Ticket.

Detroit Free Press.
A dozen linemen were busy for two
hours yesterday raising new telegraph
pole on Seventh street. When they
began digging the hole an old chap
came along and inquired:
"Going to raise a pole, eh?"
Yes
Guess I'll take it in. l allus did be-
lieve i'll opening the campaign early"
He sat down on door step until the
pole was up, and then, as some of the
men were going away, he asked:
Isn't there going to be any
speeches."
I'VE don't generally have any," re-
piled the man, but you can make one
if you wish"
"Wouldn't it be putting myself for
ward?"
ION, no."
Nobody engaged, eh?"

SMOKE CONSUMERS.
Abating a Nuisance at the EIec-
trio Light Works.


trio Light Works.
The McGinnis Smoke Burner and
Fuel Saver Company have completed
work on the last boiler in the electric
light works, and those who have here
tOfore been annoyed by the smoke will
now have no cause for complaint.
Owing to the different kind of boilers
in use considerable difficulty was ex-
perienced in putting the cOntrivances
in. operation, but they have all been
satisfactorily applied. 1t was intended
to give a test of the appliances in
the presence of Building Inspector
Johnson and others yesterday. but the
inspector thought best to adjourn it
until Monday. The case against the
Electric Light company will come up
in the municipal court Tuesday, and
the building inspector thought that
postpOning the matter to yesterday
would give the cOmplainants an oppOr-
tunity to see whether or not the NUS
ance has been abated to their satisfae-
ton. Smoke is still emitted from the
chimney, but the dense black sooty
volumne has disappeared, and there
now remains but a light cOlOred and
small quantity of smoke. If no COM
plant is made between now and Tues
day the case against the company will
probably be dismissed.

sort of uniform. There are deiegauons
from every northern city, and bands from
dozen Indian tribes; there are lacrosse
games, ''curling'' matches, toboggan
slides, races on snow shoes and fancy skat-
ing of all styles. The ice palace covers
an acre of ground and is built to height
Of 1870 feet. The ground plan is square
of 200 feet, and the structure will contain
$1,000 blocks of solid ice, each 22x23
inches square and 20 inches thick. CThis
description should be saved and read in
the hot weather.) The estimated weight
of the ice is 10000 900 pounds, and, in a
wall six feet high and eight inches thick,
it would reach fourteen miles. The style
is that of a medieval castle; the main en-
trance is under an arch twenty feet wide,
flanked by circular towers sixty feet high.
Inside is central court and a "maze"
Of winding passages. On the command
ing points of the towers are ice statues Of
snowshoers, skaters, tobogganers and
animals of the north, and through the
whole building run concealed pipes by
which 1t can be brilliantly illuminated by
electric light. With this slight exception
the entire structure is of ice. The origin
atCrs Of the st. Paul ice palaces are, as
might well be supposed, men of organic
ing genius. Mr.. George Thompson orig
mated the ideas for the first, and is now
president of the company controlling the
present one. Hon. W. A. Van Slake,
alderman, was general manager of the
first two; NJ. d. Mum, county attorney,
is secretary, In the ceremonies, however,
Governor McG.ll leads; all the officials
and prominent citizens take some part,
ard in general it may be said that the
business man or politician who docs not
help might as well leave the state, for st.
Paul is ''dead gone" on her ice palace.
Skating, as an amusement, Is almost us
old ms ice md humanity, hut Holland is
believed to be the only country where it
has been made business. On market days
in the coolest weather all the canals in
that country are enlivened by people skat-
ing from farm to town, carrying their
goods upon their heads or dragging them
on sleds; and on winter fete days or royal
holidays the smooth ponds about the city
are gay with many colored dresses, and
the ice at night reflects back the showers
of sparks from brilliant fireworks. In
New York city the day when the police
pronounce the ice in Central park safe is
one Of joy. Thousands of gay skaters en-
liven the lakes, and at night the scene is
wonderfully brilliant. As many as 5000
skaters had been upon the ice in one even
ing. Roller skating was only a "fad," a
fashion; and, like the fashion Of this world,
it seems to be passing away. 1t was not
natural. 1t has illustrated, however, an
important truth about amusements-that
which is Innocent and healthful in the
open air, may easily become means Of
vice in the close and crowded hall. 1t
