INDIAN CmLDREN HoNoRNo WAsHSo-
ToN.-The entertainment given last Sat-
urday by the pupils Of 81. Xayier's Cath
ole Indian school In honor Of Washing
ton was Of high character and proved q
revelation Of the power Of education and
painstaking training upon the minds Of
the rising generation Of Indians. The
program was varied and difficult Of rem
dition even for children who have had the
advantage Of civilized, educated and Chris
tiani1ed parents and associates. The pro-
gram consisted Of songs, comic, pathetic
and religious; calisthenics, patriotic e.
says, and expressions Of gratitude from
the Indian children TO their indulgent
patrons; and II was pleasurable to See the
amount Of interest displayed, even by the
wee tots OF four or FIVE years. The chill
dren were well and comfortably clad, and
their dormitory connected with the school
room was Q model Of neatness and clean
illness. The NEED Of praise given the pro-
moters and supporters Of this charitable
work cannot be too great. but the remark
able results Of their untiring labors are Q
sufficient recompense to those who labor
without hope Of earthly reward other
than that Of the amelioration and advance
ment Of the human race.
Build FoR THE PRESENT AND FUTURE.-
A petition has been in circulatian for the
past week, and numerously signed; ask
ing the county commissioners to submit
10 . vote Of the people the proposition TO
build $4,000 court house to take the
place Of the present building, which Is
inadequate to the needs Of the county.
There IL . valuable block Of land In North
Yakima which was given by the North
ern Pacific railroad to the county for this
purpose, and which, II not soon utilized,
will revert back to the company. This
the county cannot afford to allow, and as
. larger and better building is greatly
needed ct the present time, and % this
need will increase with each passing
month, there should be no opposition to
this movement. Let the voice Of the peo-
pie be heard for Q structure that will be
Q pride to the county and answer the re-
quirements for the prosperous years to
come.
