THH The 'Audran' comic mgand acted on Friday nljl at 'Highland opera bouse by the artistes Of the St. Qnloteti opvra company." The performance was a delightful one, and attracted a fair audience (but by no means so large as ft deserved), which was unusually liberal in it applause.

played by Miss St. Quinten, wa in every respect a most artistic performance, aud it is quite refreshing to see a comic opera artiste who can both sing and act the part she undertake with such grace and delicacy, and yet get all the Inn possible out or it. She more than justified all the praise which bad preceded her. She is bright aud vivacious, and uses her well trained mezzo-sopra jo voice with much cleverness. Her intonation and phrasing are excellent, and an almost indefinable charm attaches to her singing and her acting well.

Miss Douglass as Fiametta, daughter of Prince Lorenzo, was a prominent character in the opera. Her voice, though of not much volume and compass, is of a sympathetic and pleasing character, and gave evident pleasure to the audience. Lorenzo was presented by W. Wolft; Pippo, a shepherd, by O. W.

Kyle; G. Cl ten carried out the role of Bocco, a farmer. These were the more prominent gentlemen in the cast, and it is lortunate for the en -5 et 1 a J' OB 1 i MIIXINEHV. MISS MANN CO. Winter Goods -AT- COST to make room for Spring Stock ALL THE latest Novelties DRY GOODS, Hats.

He and hi estimable wife hare had great deal of experience with Indians, are well qual ified for the place, and are general farorires with those under their charge. Then there are fourteen teacher-', who give instruction in the prima ly course of English, and iu such Industrial work as tewing, cooking, laundering, for the girl. The boy are to receive instructions in- carpentering, blacksiulihing, shoemakiug, farming, etc. Mr. Maltby, ol OLtthe, whoiias been among the Kiowas and Comanche lor a number of years.

Is retained as clerk. It is the intention to make the Indians self-reliant as far as possible. To illustrate, iu the din- ing room, as soon as oriler has been brought out of the present chaotic state, the children will be arranged at the tables according to their advancement; waiter will be supplied from among-the Indian themselves, leaving only one white person required in the room during meals to maintain neewsary order. The culinary department, however, will always be in charge ol a white person. Ai present there is but the one im mense building on the farm, but as soon as spring opens they will commence the erection of a school building for reci ta lons, capable of accommodating 300 pupils; a commissaiy department; a permanent laundry; buildings for instructions in the various industrial branches, such as shot-making, carpeu-Uring, blacksuiithing, etc.

A water ank and wind mill will also be built, and water carried by pipes throughout the basement and probably into the officers' and teachers' departments. The entire 1,280 acres will be fenced and divided into fields, pastures and meadows; the ground will be broken and put into crops as fast as practicable, and all the work incident to an enterprise of this nature carried ou as rapidly and as systematically as their force will per mit. One more year will see a miniature citj to the south of us a city peopled by a rising generation of Indians and those who are earnestly laboring to ele vate the coming red man to the plane of respectable citizenship. In conclusion, we will s.ty that there is a general disposition among the Indians to educate their children. They want their sons aud daughter to have clearer ideas of the realities of lile, its every day business and responsibilities; and under the able and conscientious corps ot instructors employed in the Chilocco industrial school we feel sin these items will receive due attention, while every effort ill be made to teach them a higher faith than that of their fathers, who still "see God iu clouds or hear Him iu the ind." As yet there is some reluctance in letting the gills ei awav from home, but as the progress of the more favored ones is watched, no doubt all objections will give way to the desire to make strong civuizeu men and women of the coming generation.

To which we say God speed. As wiil he seen by notice in another column, our ciiy meat market will he run in the future by Messrs. ti.uicoU BalueK, Ibe latter geiitlfuiau having bought out Wm. Gibby's interest iu the business. In connection with a meat maiket the present proprietors will buy aud ship cattle and hugs, of whici1 our tarmsr readers will please make a note.

Aa Institution for thai A draftee meat thm ladtaa Soecw of The Indian industrial school, located just within the boundary line of the Indian some ix miles south of Arkansas City, has from the beginning been an item of interest to our citizens, everybody feeling a strong personal pride in its rapid progress, and taking advantage of all opportuuitie to show its beauties to visitors iu this garden of Kansas.

The present magnificent structure Is the result of Arkansas City enterprise, we might truthfully say. Ai kansas City men were first lo suggest and most persistent in pressing the great advantages offered by this locality for such an institution, and the result of their untiring effort was an ppropriation from congress providing the necessary funds, which has been supplemented by active work, so that to-day we have at our veiy doors a veritable temple ol learning ftr the education and civilization of the Indian youth. The building is located about six utiles south of Arkansas City, one mile from the state line, fronting east. It is constructed entirely ol stone taken from quarries within two miles of the build ing, la lour stories high, aud standing as it does on an elevation higher than thesurroiindingcountrr.it presents a mot imposing apiiearaucc, and can be seen several miles away. -Hacked fc Wood, of Topi-k are the ai liueci8, which is a sufficient guarairy of tliu genuml excellence ot" the work.

'1 he main building, conlainiiig the officers' and employes' departments, is 3Cx74 fet. with north aud south whig each 20x54i, all four stories. The west or rear wing is 28x38, three stories in height. Ad joining the main building and the western projections of the north and south wings are two two-story additions, each 14x16; the north one used for the officer kitchen downstairs and dining room on second floor; the south one has a boys' lavatory on first floor, and dormitoiy ou second floor. The first floor of the main building is divided Into industrial departments; second and third floors, employes' rooms; foil i th floor, dormitory.

In the north and south wings, the first floor are for recitation and playing room-; the other stories tor deeping, sewi.ig and nurse room. The dining room aud kitchen are on the ground floor ot the west wing; the second story will be the main school room, and the third a dormitory. Ascompleted, it represents an eutl ly of 25,000. For tho success attending the efforts of those ho have long worked for this glorious result thanks v. re mainly due Secretary Teller and Commissioner Price.

Their influence has always been in favor of the civilization of the Indian. Thry are zealous workers in the cause of Indian education, and ill lend ev-eiy aid in their power to all measures having for their object the elevation and true advancement ot the coming Indian. This building is only Intended as a boarding school. A building designed exclusively for recitation purposes will be erected this summer. It is of- excellent fiuish In every particular, and reflect great credit on Schiffbauer ot our city, who were the contractors, and who lurnlshed everything except some of the inside casing and finishing.

Bldiigiug tb the school are 1,280 acres to be used a an industrial farm. It Is intention 10 break 500 acres thi summer, and fence the entire tract, which will be done by the Indian boys. One hundred head of cattle will be on the farm in a few weeks, when all the work will be thoroughly systematized and carried on under the supervision of competent instructors. This school is to be conducted or. the same plan as is the one at Carlisle, and is in every way equal to that Institution.

At Carlisle pupils are received for a term of three years; they leave their homes expecting to return in that time, but if they wish to remain longer they may enter for another term of three years. This is the same plan at present adopted by Mr. Hadlt-y, the superinten dent, but it is his aim to have the length of a term fixed at five years. Some three weeks since Major Haworth, United Suites superintendent of Indian schools returned from a trip among the various tribes in quest of children. The trip was made in the dead of winter, under most trying cir cumstances, and at a time when the Indians were loath to send their children away; yet such is the confidence of the Indians in Major Haworth, who is known among them as "Sim-po-quo- dle" that the response wa very general.

One of the chiefs, in iu making a speech, said no man, "net even the great Washington," command- ed the esteem and trust ot the Iudiaus so fully as did Major Haworth. The children at rived last Friday night, and on Saturday morning Intro ductory or dedicatory service were held, conducted by the school officers aud assisted by Rev. Flemtng. The exercises opened with singing by the Indian children, which was. some what of a surprise to those who had.

an idea there wa no music in the red man's soul. Major Haworth then made quite a lengthy speech, telling the Indian children what the government had done lor them, and what great possibilities were their if they but made the best of (heir opportunities. Her. Fleming, of the First Presbyter iau church, offered a short prayer, and then directed a few earnest words to the officers and employes, impressing upon them the responsiulity resting upon their shoulders, and that they as teachers had it iu their power to Inaugurate a work of reformation that would sound their praises through all time. These speeches were translated into Kiowa and Comanche by Mr.

Maltby.and from these tongues into Caddo and Wichita by Mr. Edwards, interpreter lor the latter tribes. The children were then informed that the building was theirs for the purpose of bettering their con dition, and they proceeded wander about over the bouse, acquainting themselves with the myriad ruotns, halls. closets, and making themselves literally at home. There are eight tribes represented so far Kaw, Cheyenne, Arapahoe, Kiowa Comanche Apache, Caddo aud Wichita.

The Kaw send 4 girls, and 4 boys Cheyennes.M boys, 13 girls; Arapahoe, 8 boy, 4 girls; Comanche. 11 boys. 1 girl; balance from the Wichita and Xiowae, swelling the number to 131 94 boys and 37 girl. The ages of these children range all the way from lo 33 year. The Pawnees will In week or two send 6 boy and 6 gill.

Children are also promised from the Sac and Fox, Nea Perce, Pouca, Otoe, Pottawatomie and Shawnee Indians 'Diamond' WHOLESALE AND RE RAIL KR0ENERT AUSTIN. PROPRIETORS.

The company is a good one, a nd the never more entertaining ly pot on the boards. The entire chorus entered into the spirit of the piny with I energy. We have never seen an audi- ence more highly entertained, and the company have added the theatre going public of Arkansas City to their already long list of friends. At the matinee on Saturday the pany produced the favorite "Pinafore," much to the delight of the children, Miss St. Quinten being especially charming as Josephine.

On Saturday night the company made their last appearance to a good house in the new opera, Thecostuines worn in this opera were simply beautiful, and the company's own scenery was much admired. MUs St. Quinten as Phyllis scored an other success, and the whole company strengthened the good impression they made on their first appearance. The St. Quinten company leave here with the b-st wishes of our people, and it would be very gratifying if other ompauie ot merit could be induced to visit us and so elevate the public taste from the low trashy performances so often given and so generally patronized.

Obituary. Died, at her residence, In this city, at 6 o'clock p. in. ol Sunday, January 20, Ellen Elizabeih, the beloved ife ol A. A.

Wiley, of puerperal fever, in the 32d year ol her age. It is with feelings of the deepest son ow that we chronicle the ueath ot this most Christian woman, in whose death her husband loses a true aud loving wile, her children a doting mother, and at large a tried and faithful friend and to those sorrowing for- the dear departed we extend our heartfelt sympathy. "White flowers lie upon ber breait; Her throbbing pulses are at rest; A circlet glimmers upon her head; She is a qaeea, and she is dead. "Around her all is very still; Uaehanced, behind a changeless hill. The western sun forever dips.

And dying splendors kiss her lip. "Her passive hand a sceptre holds; Her raiment falls in stately folds; Her lasbea slumber on her eheek; The world would lutendid she speak. "She will be still for evermore: Though crowned king or emperor Made bare his treasury for her. The quiet lips will never stir. "She will be still; but all around.

Voices, which speak without a sound. Bid tender chords awake and thrill. Telling of her, though she is still." The funeral services were held at the house Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock, and were attended by relatives and many friends, aLd on Tuesday the remains were con veyed to Dexter, where they were laid to rest, to slumber till the summons of the arch-angel bids her rise to lile Immortal. The Opeirav Arkansas City his at last been visited by an opera company not an organization got up for the purpose of v'siting mall towns, but a company that can play in such cities as New Orleans for a season of ten weeks, and most of the large citiea in the west, and have been praised by the press and the public wherever they appeared. A to the uccesa ot the performance there can be but one opinion, but whether it was a financial success so far as the company is concerned is open to doubt.

Be thi Kas it may, we hope to see them again during the season, and should they con sent to revisit we hope our peopla will ahow Miss St. liuten and her splendid company that a town which can fill the houso to overflowing to witness a negro minstrel or "Uncle Tom's Cablu" entertainment can at least do the tame for a superior opera company, whose performances, both as regards singing and acting, are artistic iu the lullest sense of the word.
