Tho Indian String Quartet which is
10 he presented to the Salem public
at tho First Christian church tonight,
will give a class Of music seldom heard
outside Of the largest cities, because
sucn an organization requires long and
constant practice together. A string
quartet is qnite uncommon and few
people know how beautiful is the music
written for these instruments by the
great masters. Tle Indian themes com.
posed by Mr.. Turney, leader of the
quartet, are striking features of tho
program. They preserve the character
istic wildness Of Indian music in n
beautiful harmony and always delight
in by their weird charm.
The (POrtland) Oregon Journal said;
The music of the quartet revealed 70
the public that a unique work is being
done at Chemawa by Mr., Turney as n
composer, as well as leader Of the or
chostra. He mas made a careful study
of Indian music, and has the ability TO
put its spirit into melody that is
pleasing 10 modern ears.
In the "Tndian Suite" which was
played with fine effect, he has given n
beautiful expression of the spirit Of
the early Indian people in their joys,
in their sorrows aud in their ccremon.

Coming out of his bungalow one morn
ing recently, an officer found the an
cient Burma chief Of village so miles
away squatted on his heels and ready
to talk. After the customary diplomat
ic greetings the chief stated his mis-
sion as follows:
"My villagers wish to make some re-
turn for the favors bestowed upon us
by the British government The gov
ernment has lessened the taxes, killed
the leopards, given US good water and
policemen. Now l have come to tell
yon that we have eight guns, ancient
and true; four pounds of excellent gun
powder in u bottle, and bag Of bullets;
these being no more Of less than the
honorable British government has per-
mitted us to hold.
"Master, we have heard @ rumor that
the British government is in great
trouble with its enemies. Wherefore
our villagers have empowered me to say
that the eight guns, powder and bullets
are at the disposal of the British gov
ernment.'
As to "army" the chief offered two
Of the best village trackers to handle
the ,artillery and munitions. He
went away satisfied that the honorable
British government should hear Of the
generous offer and he should know it
Oll in due time.
The war office is understood already
to have replied that if the situation be.
comes worse it may accept the generous
offer.
