EARTHQUAKES IN THE
 TAE,kEE1NA RANGE

Earthquakes thrive and have their being in the Talkeetna range Of mountains, accordingao re- port brought out by Paul Heath, who has been on Clear creeks in that region, since last winter. Early in July, Heath says, earth quake followed earthquake in such quick succession that all count of the disturbances was lost. He says it threw scare into the few inhabitants, who be- gan to think that the end was at hand. They gained knowledge of the Katmai eruption through a fall of ashes which the wind drove in that directiOn.--Seward Gateway.

Schoolmasters Win Law Suit.

Judge Overfield recently decid- ed the two cases of C. s. Blake and T. F.. Latimer vs. the City of Juneau. and the school board, found for the plaintiffs. The suit was for back pay for the time in- tervening between the date of their discharge by the board and the date at which their term would have expired.
 The defense set up by the city and the school board is that they were incompetent and engaged in politics by carrying on a cam- paign for the institution of a gymnasium and that they were discharged and paid up in full for all the services rendered.
 The court held that the fact that the >choOlmasterS and chil- dren took active part in trying to get a gymnasium established could not be charged as engaging in politics. In fact, the court held that trying to establish a gym nasi,lln was very laudible ob- jcct. This was especially true of Juneau on account of the eli matic conditions prevailing there, which made outdoor exercise for the children uncomfortable.

Sahara as Factory Center.

Utilization of the Sahara des- ert as a center of industrial pro- ductiOn was the suggestion made by J. AStley Cooper in paper on Northern Nigeria. read before the Royal Colony Institute i'll London recently.
 It had almost been accepted as a truisn, he said. that our coal supplies we're giving out, but the Sahara desert received an amount of solar heat every day equiva- lent to that produced by 6,000,- 0O0,OO0 tons of coal.
 In this arid region, with the great supplies of products avail able from the wonderful forest lands nearer to the coast, and the country traHersed by network of railways, thoughtful scienti- tic men say that if some econom- ical method could be found to use this lost solar energy, such, for instance. as the scheme which was on trial near Cairo. there was no reason why the dreams should not he realized of those who saw great districts of the world. now arid and useless on account of the intense heat, giv- en up to the factories of the flu ture. These would be of enor- nous extent with glass cham bers instead of chimneys and re- Electors instead of furnaces, all designed to receive and transmit the daily gift of the suns heat.
