SEATTLE FIRE SOUVENIRS.


Albany Argus.
\ few days ago received from Mr.
Charles I. Conover. a former we'll
known newspaper man in this city. a
copy Of the seattle fire souvenir, =
being the edition of the Posr-INTKLIr-
GEscgg Issued the day after the great
tire in that city. There is only one
page of il, about twelve By twentv
inches in size, and all its space except
part of one of its short columns is de-
voted 10 an account of the fire. The
friends OF Mr.. Conover in this city
who have watched his career in the
West have seen with pleasure the rare
business ability and enterprise he has
displayed. As an illustration of the
latter trait--in the Posr-IxTELIIsg EN-
CIR souvenir there were but tao ad-
vertisements. One was that OF bank
oil that city and the other was that OF
the firm OF real estate ana financial
brokers of which Mr.. Conoyer is a
member. telling the public where they
could be found in their temporary
headquarters. Mr.. Conover IS already
looked upon as leading business
man OF Seattle and is well known
throughout the cities of the new state
Seattle contains number of former
Alhanians, and the following from a
pioneer banker of that city will be
read with interest. He says The
indomitable spirit and energy which
has enabled the people of this city
10 built ii up TO the greatness il has so
long enjoyed is still in them, and will
enable them to quickly recover from
the effects of the disaster OF the day
The business community OF Seattle
will rise from the ashes In very short
time and IN better condition than
ever. With all the misfortune that
has be;aiien our community there Is
qualification in the thought that there
mas been very little distress, for the
reason that the loss falls almost en-
tirely on the business community.
which Is well able Ia sustain it, = Al
ready many handsome new buildings
have been erected in Seattle, and that
city has now fairer prospects than
ever before of becoming the nietropo-
his OF the West.

The benefit entertainment for Rev
Father Begley at Schiller's hall, West
Douglas avenue Tuesday evening was on
Che whole very gratifying effort, as the
large and appreciative audience proved by
their enthusiastic applause. The program
opened by the Eagle Rifles band excellent
rendering of one of their choice overtures.
This was followed by II choice declama-
ton from the genial Chas McFadden.
Next was Mrs. Catherine Russell, who
in her usual artistic manner, sang Mrs.
Lofty and l."
The band again rendered one of its
choice selections.
Miss Lydia Manassa gave very ar
tistic readi ng.
In the next number we first had the
pleasure of hearing the new organist of St.
Aoysius cathedral, Prof. Chas. Purdy,
previously student Of the Leisic and
Munich Conservatives, in his playing OF
Chopin's third ballade for the piano. Pro
fessor Purdy has command of his technical
materials, but above all things his inter-
probation reveals the deep aud thoughtful
musician.
4 short intermission was called for vot-
ing on the gold headed cane, after which
the program was resumed by selection
from the orchestra.
Mr.. H. p Virgins sang Palm Branches"
in manner which indeed leaves no doubt
but that St. Aloysius choir possesses fine
solo baritone, now that it has Mr.. Virgins.
Professor Purdy gave ''Spartacus" in
After more voting the entainment closed
with the recitation of Grim's Flag by
Charles McFadden. On the whole it was
delightful affair and one TO be long
remembered.

Catholic Brotherhood are capable of doing
for their beloved chaplain, Rev. John

FROM OKLAHOMA.
Plenty OF Boomers Rejotci8 ut the News-Cat
tlemen Taxing Out heir Stock

T. F. KcMeachan, ESQ.,, arrived here last
evening from a somewhat extended trip
over the territory visiting among other
places Oklahoma Bity, Darlington and Ft.
Reno. He says that he saw plenty of
boomers everywhere and they were doing
their best to hold out until April ed
when the country will finally be thrown
open to settlement. There was the Wild
est excitement oyer the issuing OF the
proclamation and every person seemed to
be rejoicing at the favorable outcome
He said, too, many men had already COM
menced figuring upon claims, and some
had even been offered quite neat little
sums to relinquish their rights, even as
precarious as thea now are.
Yesterday morning Colonel Summers re-
ceived from Colonel Wade at Fit Reno a
| copy of the recent strict orders from Wash
| ington, in which all persons were ordered
out of the country, and those who re-
manned were to have their names taken
| and used against them in future filing. A
copy of these orders he posted on the
| depot, and it had tendency to brighten
| many boomers out of the country. Added
to this the report that the soldiers were
coming from Fit. Reno to commence anew
| the raid, tho situation of those remaining
/ in Oklahoma without permits is certainly
precarious. A goedly number he
said had come through from
Oklahoma City to Gutherie and concealed
themselves there in the wood and bushes.
/ There will no doubt be quite a rush 70
this place now that it has been made the
location of one of the land Offices.
At the Indian encampments Mr.. Nc
Meachan. who is quite big man to poor
Lo, was given a royal reception, feasts,
dances, etc.
One of the greatest subjects that
seemed to be concerning speculator was
where will be the townsites. He could find
no one who knew anything more about it
than himself, yet all were most anxious
inquirers.
| Zach Mullhall has gone down into the
Oklahoma country to drive his cattle out.
as it is feared that the boomers will kill
them and destroy the cattlemen's property.
There was some fears expressed last night
that there would be conflict between the
two factions yet before the work is finally
completed.
