ADJUSTMENTS.
Limited Mail" at the opera-Ho,

''Limited Mail'' at the Opera-House.
The presentation of "The Limited Mail" at
the Seattle opera-house last night greatly
pleased the audience. While the play has all
the conventional features of the lost heiress and
the designing villain, the thwarting of the lat
ter's plans and the final triumph of the right,
it is yet made extremely attractive by exciting
situations and novel stage effects The story
deals with railroad lie in the far West, and the
ups and downs OF such surroundings are pic
tured true to life. The fight of the
Limited Nall across the stage was very real
istic. The leading lady of the company, Miss
Grace Sherwood, was unable to appear on &C
count of illness, and Miss Viola Vance, who has
been playing minor part, was compelled to as
sumo the role of Nellie Harland without any
chance whatever to rehearse. Under the cir
eumstances her work was very creditabie Mas
ter Harrey Blaney won deserved recognition in
the character of Jim Harland. an ambitious
"kid," and Joseph Coyne was highly amusing
as Barney 0'Reagan, the section boss. The
work of w. j. Dixon as Zeke Harland, the sta
ton agent, was good.
"The Limited MaiP' will be presented again
tonight, when il is thought Miss Sherwood will
be able to appear.

LEsCHI PARK ATTRACTIONS.
why the Spot Was Named for an Indian
Chief.

AnIGf.
The attractions at Leschi park tomorrow are
20 be of unusual interest. Besides the astonish-
ing feats of Professor Davidson, the greatest
rope walker in America, there will probably be
number OF live seals playing in the
water around the fountains. The First
Regiment band viii discourse lively
music. Every Sunday adds to the popu-
larity of this beautiful family breathing place.
Flowers and plants, fountains, lakes, shady
walks and inviting hooks are the attractions
that city people SO much enjoy, and that Seattle
people have in this park almost at their very
door. The park is at the end of Yesler avenue
and is reached directly by the Yesler avenue
cable line.
'Leschi is pronounced 'les-shy," the accent
being on the first syllable The name Is a ia
miliar one 70 the early settlers. Leschi was one
of the most acute and able, as well one of the
most crafty Indians OF the Northwest coast.
lie was an irnplacable foe to the white settlers,
and was largely instrumental in organizing the
powerful league of Indian tribes which waged
the war of 1856 On January Is, 1856,
the Sound Indians, in conjunction with those
from east of the mountains, attacked the infant
settlement OF Seattle. They brought TO this
battle the largest force of Indians ever assem-
bled on Puget sound, and they were
foiled in their attempt TO destroy the
town only by the presence in the harbor
OF the United States sloop-oi-war Decatur,
which took part in the battle, both by landing
force of marines aud by Smelling the woods oc-
cupied by the Indians. The Eastern Indians
came 70 this fight through the Snoqualme pass,
and were fe-ried across Lake Washington by the
Indians dwelling on the lake and its tributary
rivers. They are supposed TO have landed at or
near the place where Leschi park now is 1t is
in commemoration of this event, the last for
midabe uprising of the Indians OF the North
west, that the park is named. Leschi was the
most aggressive leader of the hostiies, and the
war was not ended until he was killed.
