Music Notes


One of the most delightful musicals
of the Mt. Washington season was held
last evening at the home of j. B. Mer-
rill, on Elysian drive, and number
of the elect were entertained with a
splendid vocal and instrumental pro-
gram. Grayson Merrill and wife, who
have lately returned from New York,
where they r-ere privileged to sit under
Saenger, the veteran teacher, rendered
several numbers that called for much
applause. Mrs. Merrill sang the waltz
song from Juliet" and with her hus-
band the duet, "Oh, That We Two
Were Maying." Mr.. Merrill sang the
"Tales of Araby." He is the possessor
of a remarkable tenor voice of rare
quality and is expected to take front
rank among the local tenors.
Mr.. j. B. Merrill, the host delighted
the audience with Dvorek's "Berceuse"
and the grand march from '"Thalia"
on the pipe organ. These musicals
are regular monthly events on the Mt.
Washington calendar and are greatly
enjoyed by the dwellers of the clouds.

gardIesS of Warning

E. r. Kreamer, a striking brewery
worker, accused of violating the anti

was a test case, and the attorneys for
the unions involved will take an appeal.
The trial began yesterday afternoon
With nine Jurors chosen, Judge VIII
liams convened court at 2:30 o'clock,
and attorneys for both sides began the
work of choosing three more men out OF
a new Venire of twenty.
After the examination of more than
half a hundred talesmen the jury was
finally completed at o'clock. and after
a recess of fifteen minutes the trial OF
Kreamer was resumed.
Frank Blakesley, proprietor OF the
Belmont cigar stand in front OF a sa-
loon at Fifth and Main streets, where
Kreamer is alleged to have picketed'
was the first witness called by the pros
ecution. The witness testified that
Kreamer had stood In front of the sa-
loon, crying Unfair beer" He said he
informed the defendant that 1t was
against the city ordinance, but the laI-
ter replied that he didn't care.
Following Blakesley, Patrolman w.
e. O'Brien, one of the arresting othcers'
was called to the witness stand. He
testified that he had approached Krea-
ner and asked him what he was say
ing, and the defendant replied, Unfair
beer inside"
Attorney Spring for the defense at
tempted to show that Kreamer had not
induced the officer not to go into the
Belmont, but all objections made by
attorneys for the prosecution to the
question were sustained by the court.
Patroman Toomey gave further tes-
tinony as to Kreamer's arrest, ana al
ter objections on the part of the attor-
news for Kreamer, succeeded in testl
flying to the confession OF the defendanl
before Deputy City Prosecutor Reeve
following his arrest.
Samuel Van Clamp also testined TO
the violation of the ordinance by Krea-
mer. After recalling Patrolman O.Bri-
en-. whom the defense attempted no
show had taken Kreamer to Jail lmme-
diately for the purpose of preventing
him from securing witnesses, when
was denied by the witness, the people
rested. ,,o7
After a short recess the defense called
Kreamer to the stand. The witness de-
djed that he had violated the law, but
said that the officer walked up to MN,
and when he questioned him, ne told
him that the Belmont saloon had unfair
beer and directed him to place down
the street where they had union beer
At the conclusion of Kreamers tesu-
nor1v the court adjourned until
o'clock When the court recohVeneo
arguments of counsel were heard.

in Two Hours

rested yesterday by Sergeant Spellnan
and Patrolman Turner on charse Oh
malicious mischief at 526 South Spring
street The men were on the rool OF
the one-story frame building occupied
by w. Hunter & Co. at 526 Soutn
Snring. next door to the excavation
being dug for the Alexandria Annex.
There were about sixty reported as
being on the building, but when the

the only two.
w Schacht and F. J. Bunting were
arrested by Patrolmen Toolen ana
Amman on a warrant charging them
with malicious mischief, sworn to by

of picketers who had congregated IN
the alley back of the Alexandra An
mex. Ten were arrested in this haul.

o'clock and o'clock.

detained at headquarters throughout
the entire day. Not many strikers
hung around the building. Captain

Of the city. No cases of violence were
reported.
All the accused violators of the anti

came apparent that the policy of re-

fractions of the law. Out of 109 pick
eters arraigned before the court,
twenty-nine were released on their
own recognizance and the remainder

New coplsaa BUILDINGS.

jamestown, N D., July 2S.-WorlS
on the new buildings on the James
town college campus is progressing
rapidly and making a great difference
in the appearance of the college
grounds.
The walls Of the new dormitory are
now up to their full height and it is
believed the masons will furnish all
the brick and stone work within the
next week. There are still four brick
gables 10 be built and the stone coping
to be put on the top of the walls.
There are six masons now at work.
& The carpenters are following close
behind the masons and already great
many OF the partitions are in place
and lathed. There are also six carr
penters at work and every day sees
more OF the rooms in the new building
divided OF and the halls brought
nearer completion,
Good work is also being put in on
the new residence for the president OF
the institution. The partitions are all
in place and the plastering completed.
In place of siding, cement has been
placed on the outside of the building
above the first story and gives the
building a striking appearance that is
altogether pleasing. The work on this
structure Is being pushed as rapidly
as that on the new dormitory, and IL
the operations receive no setback the
college will soon have two new build
ings of which any institution could
well be proud.

The INDIAN
OF Fiction
Continued From Page ore.

which throws no little light on the
difficulties of enumerating the red
men.
"Only the very young children, who
have been educated in the government
schools" he says. "have any knowledge
OF their ages or births, and agents were
instructed to use age and birth months
as nearly as talk and observation would
seem correct. Time with them is COM
puted on suns and SHOWS, and dis
ytances, by sleeps. Marriages, separa-
tlons, births and deaths are all based
upon such calculations, and we were
obliged to base our information in the
same way"
He then gives this instance
An Indian buck claimed to have
lived 200 SHOWS After much talk
and use OF the sign language 1t was de-
termined that he was about 80 years
old. He was found to have been 20
SHOWS when he got his first woman
TO- have kept her four SHOWS. when she
got away that he got more woman
and keep her five SHOWS and she de-
tina. he got no woman for 90 SHOWS
more and finally that he got young
chicken and keep her all time ever
since, now, on, 25 OF. so SHOWS"
That there were other difficulties in
getting the facts regarding the abor-
igines is indicated by the following
from the report:
Many of the Indians know suf-
ficient number of English words to do
business with a white man, but when
1t was determined that they were to
be counted they had faculty for clos
Ing their mouths and knowing nothing
until an interpreter impressed upon
them the fact that the agent came from
the Great White Father at Washing
tom"
Regarding the habits and character
Of the people he says:
AS a class they are indolent, law
and dirty although in recent years the
teachers have taught the younger ones
tnat dirt has been the cause of much
OF their illness and the present gener-
alton are keeping themselves healthier
by bathing. Their homes are filthy as
a rule and conducive to the diseases
with which the Indians are most AZ
hicted.
They spend their winters In hunt-
nSnlnR
Furs, hides of moose and caribou. are
brought to the traders and exchanged
for food and clothing but seldom for
money. Out of these hides thew also
make moccasins, gloves, mittens and
other curios which they trade in the
same way. The fish caught in the
summer are dried and used for food
for themselves and their dogs during
the winter
The indians have no knowledge OF
their tribal clans names and are al
ways called by their village or To-
cality name. The Indians in the VII
entity of Chandlar river are GALES
"Chandlar" Indians. The same is true
OF the Cinema, Calcha, Tana. Mansfield
Circle, tribes, etc. The missionaries
and the bureaus of education have de-
termined, however, that all OF the In
dians in the interior of Alaska are
Athabascan-Knaioko- hotana with tha
exception of those in the Koyakuk dis
trict which are Athabascan Koyalx-
ohatana."
