The Glacier throws cold water upon
the proposed "deestrick skule" enter
tainment here. The fact is that The
Dalles possesses dramatic talent of a high
order, and is no better proven than by
the large houses which have invariably
greeted them in the winter seasons,
proving the most remunerative of any of
the numerous church or society schemes
to acquire funds. Just come up and
take in our entertainment, John, and we
can promise the Glacier readers a half
column description of how well Dalles
people can interpret comedy, which is
all that the play, this time, affords.
An Indian Burial.
An Indian funeral procession filed
through First street this morning on
the way to their burying ground above
here. The corpses (there were two of
them, presumably children, from the
size) were wrapped in gunnysacking and
suspended from poles, either end being
upported by the shoulders of a squaw.
Changes
were frequently made by the
pall bearers. They were absent about
two hours, and, though they did not
return to the inspiring strains of Yankee
Doodle by a brass band, like the pale
face, they chattered away as if glad that
their sad duty had ended.
It is said the Indians have great nat
ural love for their children and are in
consolable when they are lost by death.
Mother Nature has been kind in im
planting parental love in the heart of
every creature, but she has been more
considerate with the lower orders of ani
mal life in shrouding the phenomena of
death with mystery that they do not
realize their loss.
Redeeming a Stray.
Father Bronsgeest left Tuesday for
Portland, having in charge Mary Wol
farth, a miss of some 16 years, who, by
the worthlessness of her parents and her
associates, bad commenced the down
ward career leading to moral and bodily
ruin, bhe was lelt with toe state home
of the Boys and Girls Aid Society of Ore
gon, where she will receive that instruc
tion and encouragement which will
make of her a good and useful woman.
The result was attained by the action of
the .charitable society of the Catholic
church, which is one of the most com
mendable institutions of the city.
McArthur the Man.
The friends of ex-Judge L. L. Mc
Arthur are circulating a petition, which
is being uanimously signed, for that
gentleman's appointment as U. S. dis
trict judge. The names of some half
dozen persons are canvassed for this
position. But there is one man among
them who ought not to be considered at
all. His name is R. S. Strahan, and
his appointment would be a scandal and
a public misfortune. The reasons for
this plain statement are ample. Stra
han' s habits and practices are such that
President Cleveland, if he knew him,
would reject his name with indignation.
Another Pioneer Gone.-
Hon. Benj. F. Burch, of Independ
ence, Polk county, died yesterday morn
ing of heart failure. Mr. Burch came to
Oregon in 1845, and has lived in that
county ever aince. He has been one of
Oregon's prominent citizens. This year
is making inroads on Oregon's pioneer
roll faster than we think.

The Mignonette, Disband.
Last evening amid mirth and music
the Mignonette club expired, it being
the last of a series of the parties for
which the club was organized. A full
attendance of the members filled the
hall, and the programme, a little longer
than usual, was enjoyed to the utmost.
About twelve o'clock to the strains of a
waltz the last set was passed through
with and as the music ceased the club
was no more. The music by Messrs.
Birgfeld and Burchstorf was excellent.
A pleasant diversion was a waltz played
by Messrs. Garretson, Booth and Jame
son on mandolin and guitar. The dan
cers will now have a rest and await the
return of next winter.

Ball and Klnsle Released.
Prosecuting Attorney Wagner yester
day morning in Ellensbnrgh filed a mo
tion to dismiss the charge against Cal
Hale and Tom Kinzie, and an order for
their, releaso was immediately iesued.
They departed for their homes . in Ore
gon. Hale was convicted of robbing the
Roslyn bank and secured a new trial.
The jury in the Kinzie case disagreed,
and the new trials were to begin next
Monday. The motion for a dismissal
was made - because the prosecution
thought the chances of a conviction too
slim to justify plunging the county
deeper in debt in an .effort to convict.
They have been in jail since December
1st. George Zachery was liberated las$
month.
This action will please the great ma
jority of the people of Oregon who be
lieved Cale Hale innocent.
Rasora In the Air.
Saturday evening our town people bad
a little sensation of its own. Constable
Carlisle of Arlington came in on the
stage and proceeded at once to the sher
iff's ofEce and placed a warrant in the
hands of Deputy Sheriff Johnson for the
arrest of our attorney, Geo. W. Goode,
on a charge of forgery preferred by .Ern
est Seekamp, the sheepman. Goode
was promptly arrested and marched off
to the county jail where he was locked
up until the next morning. The trouble
originated out of a note given by Mr.
Seekamp last summer to Mr. Goode for
legal services rendered him. The note
calls for $75, and when Goode began to
press payment, Seekamp claimed that
the note he signed was for $75 instead
of $175 and that the extra $100
$100 was forged by tampering with the
note afterwards. Justice Zeigler dis
missed the case, saying that he was un
able to find any evidence whatever to
show that a crime had been committed
or that the note had been tampered with
in any way.
Mr. Goode feels very indignant over
the disgrace that has unnecessarily been
thrust upon him, and we understand he
will bring suit against Mr. Seekamp for
heavy damages for malicious prosecution
and false imprisonment. Condon Globe.
A Handy Device.
A new print-washer for photographers
was shown by Mr. D. C. Herrin, the in
ventor, this morning". It is a wonder the
implement has not been invented and
generally used many years ago, saving,
as it does, a great deal of valuable time
to the photographer. By an under, ' in
stead of an over-flow of water, the prints
are kept constantly moving, without the
tedious work of handling them, as is
now the universal custom.
